Scene 249 The Holy Land of Atuk

Seeing the roof appearing in the mist, Brando couldn't help but feel a little impatient. What he wanted to do most now was to find a place to take a good bath and eliminate the weird smell on his damn clothes.

Look. Although the stench of sulfur permeating the robes of the Sheepheaded Cultists is a sign of their identity, the strong smell of sweat on the robes and some unknown stench mixed with it are superfluous, even though they have just entered the swamp.

It had been a few hours, but Brando was already feeling a little dizzy.

It’s true that he has pretended to be a Sheep-Headed Cultist in the game, but the game is a game after all. Although it is said to be 100% realistic, it seems that there are still many things that are not realistic. This is the only difference.

, which made him, who was once innocent, almost cry.

There are many hotels in the town, and Brando finally chose a hotel called 'Token's Boots' that didn't seem to have a very good environment. It wasn't that his current wealth couldn't afford to stay in the most luxurious and comfortable hotel in town.

It’s not that he didn’t want to find a place that was even a little bit clean and comfortable in this damp and cold place to take care of these things. In fact, before that, Her Royal Highness the nun Princess Magdale passed by the neatest house in town.

It looked like the cleanest and most comfortable hotel, but I almost couldn't walk.

His student, Miss Huanghuo, also looked at the luxurious hotel opposite the hotel where they were staying with a look of reluctance and lingering. She wanted to speak several times, but in the end it was too long.

£∈文£♂et still held back his words.

Because everyone understands that what they are playing now is a group of impoverished lower-class believers. In fact, like most cult organizations, most of the lower-class believers of the Sheep Head Cult are impoverished. Except for a very few people,

They spend so much money to stay in the most luxurious hotel. It will obviously attract attention.

Brando didn't want to attract attention, so he could only aggrieve himself. Fortunately, although this hotel is small, it is well-equipped. It also has slightly clean single rooms and a bathing place. The cold and damp swamps are not suitable for passing travelers.

It is obviously also a necessary requirement to keep a clean and comfortable bath.

Brando first sent the two ladies and his students to deal with his 'private affairs', which was actually taking a shower and changing clothes. Fortunately, there is such a thing as magic in this world. Cleaning clothes only takes a little space and a few minutes.

That's all, so as not to delay things.

And he himself and Mr. Liu went to the lobby on the first floor of the hotel to inquire about the news. After buying a glass of wine, he found out some information about the Holy Land of Attuk, just as Brando expected,

This information is not a secret, because the Sheephead believers gathered in Tauchik because of this holy place.

This holy land is one of the sealed places of the great demon Akentu, just like the Black Fire Cultists. The Sheep-Headed Cultists worship demons, but they do not worship all demons. Their real master is actually only one, and that is the Sheep-Headed King of Purgatory.

Arkanto.

The sheep-headed Akentu once led an army of demons to invade the surface world, but was defeated by the Dragon of Darkness. Its soul was put into a crystal ball by the Buga people and sealed secretly. The location of this seal is in the Saint's Palace.

He disappeared after the war. There are many areas in the world of Warnd that are suspected of being sealed by Akentu, and Tochik is one of them.

Only then did Brando understand the reason why so many sheep-headed believers gathered in this place. Apparently, the living sacrifice ceremony held in Hadran this time was precisely to open the seal of the Atuk Holy Land. Such a situation also happened in Taoqik

This is not the first time that the ceremony has been performed. There have been several other ritual sacrifices in the past, but all failed without exception. But what surprised Brando was that according to the Sheephead believers, the Hoduli family, the host of the ritual ceremony,

It seems that the Gray Scepter is particularly confident in this living sacrifice ceremony. Half a month ago, the Gray Scepter issued a summons to all the Sheep-headed believers in the entire Taoqik area and even the surrounding areas.

Speaking of the living sacrifice ceremony of the cultists, this was not the first time he had seen it in this world. He had encountered such a large-scale ceremony once in Rushta, the imperial capital of the Cruz people, and the host that time was a tree shepherd.

And the ceremony was quite successful. The Dragon Queen not only successfully summoned the evil god Frederick, but also almost used Frederick to kill the will of dusk.

Recalling the various experiences in the elemental realm, he couldn't help but be a little distracted. Fortunately, Delphine came down from upstairs at this time. She seemed to have dealt with her personal problems, came to Brando, and skillfully took over the

At the beginning of the conversation, I talked to the owner of the hotel, who was also a sheep-headed believer in black robes, about the issues related to the ritual ceremony and the Atuk Holy Land.

There is little common language among Sheephead believers. The only common language they have is their faith, so Delphine's questions about it did not attract much attention. Although this prime minister's daughter had never heard of it before,

Attuk Holy Land is a term, but when she talks about this place, she seems to have seen it with her own eyes and has a deep understanding of it.

The boss was convinced of this. Before the conversation, Delphine quickly found out more things. Only then did the three of them learn that the Holy Land of Atuk was not in the Tochik Swamp, but in Hadran.

Off the harbor, in a sea area called the Sea of ​​Green.

This information immediately caught Brando's attention. Before this trip, he had already learned from Queen Madala that the Stagnation Realm might be in the center of the Dead Moon Inner Sea, which is undoubtedly on the sea. And the Stasis Realm is

It was about the mystery of the emerald, and the sea area called the "Green Sea" obviously stirred the nerves of the three of them.

Brando turned around, Delphine's face was hidden under the hood and his expression could not be seen clearly, but the prime minister's daughter was silent for a moment, and quietly drew a few numbers on the table with her fingers dipped in wine. Brando looked at

It turned out that they were the results of several calculations, and those results were exactly the declination of the sun. During the repeated discussions with Delphine every day for a month, he had become extremely familiar with it. The position pointed there was obviously the correct one.

It's off Hadran.

Brando immediately understood the meaning of the prime minister's daughter. Apparently she also believed that the Holy Land of Atuk might be the place pointed to by the Emerald Mystery, or at least related to it. Otherwise, there would be no such coincidence in the world.

There are so many 'secret places' appearing in it.

The three exchanged views, and Brando turned the topic back to the ruler of Hadland and the upcoming living sacrifice ceremony. In fact, in any other area of ​​Warnd, there is anything about such cultists.

It is impossible to bring the topic of living sacrifice rituals to the table, but Tauchik is obviously such a weird place. This is the true territory of the Sheep-Headed Cultists, where beliefs other than dusk and demons are the only ones.

It's taboo.

When Brando accidentally asked why the head of the Hoduli family was so confident this time, the hotel owner showed a strange look on his face; Brando was stunned and then realized that this person

Maybe he knew something, which surprised him. He didn't expect to get an answer to this question.

Of course, the information the other party has may also be unreliable gossip, but it doesn't matter. The more channels for information at this time, the better. So after Brando paid the extra 'drink money', the owner of the hotel was just right.

The ground relaxed.

He told the three of them with a mysterious face that one of his cousins ​​was living in Hadland and was trusted by the city lord. Of course, Brando tentatively believed in such a shabby hotel that seemed to be about to close down due to poor management.

The owner's cousin was a confidant of the head of the Hoduli family, and the latter continued to tell them that based on the secret information sent back by his cousin, this time the Hoduli family had accidentally captured a dragon.

A real giant dragon, not a sub-dragon creature with a dragon in its name that has little to do with golden blood.

Brando does not believe this at all. The dragons in this world are truly creatures second only to gods. Even young dragons like Aloz are extremely powerful, let alone real adult dragons.

.Legendary dragons such as the best among dragons, such as Owenroth and Fossia, are so powerful that they make even demigods tremble.

A mortal slaying a dragon?

That's just a legendary story. Although there are indeed a few cases in history, the owners of the stories are all legendary heroes such as the Azure Knight. Who is the head of the Hoduli family? Can it be compared with those in the epic?

compared to heroes?

Not to mention how dare the Hoduli family sacrifice a giant dragon alive? Unless the sheep-headed believers in the Tochik area are really impatient, once this news gets out, even if it is a lie, the dragons will probably

Will burn this place to the ground because of the insult.

But just when Brando thought he had bought a meaningless piece of fake news with money, there was a sudden commotion in the hotel.

Then he heard a scolding coming from the direction of the hall:

"Damn brat, ah"

The sound suddenly stopped.

Then there was a scream and the sound of tables and chairs turning over.

Brando turned around subconsciously, thinking for the first time that his student was in trouble again. He, Mr. Liu, and Delphine pushed away the chairs and stood up, and the three people's hands held the robe without leaving a trace.

The hilt below.

But as soon as Brando turned around, he was stunned for a moment, because what he saw was not the phoenix fire, but a scene that surprised him.
