Chapter 16 Radiance Church
Wordy!
A sharp arrow flew out from the front.
Sauron's ears moved slightly, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and his shot was like lightning in an instant. Amid the disbelieving expression on the opponent's face, he directly grabbed the sharp arrow with his bare hands.
Catch the arrow with bare hands!
There was a dead silence all around, and the thief who had just shot an arrow from the opposite side couldn't help but grow his mouth.
He just saw the paladin being stunned by Sauron's blow, and without thinking much, he shot an arrow to avoid the enemy, but he didn't expect such a result, the opponent was able to catch the arrow with his bare hands.
Almost instantly.
The team of adventurers in front of them realized that they may not be the opponent of this man together.
Sauron stared at the group of people in front of him.
A paladin, a priest, a rogue, a ranger, and the last one is hard to see in robes, but the probability of belonging to a spellcaster is very high, either a wizard or a warlock.
This is a standard adventure squad!
Paladins and rangers replaced fighters and barbarians, and the rogue looked like a veteran with the quickest reflexes of them all.
This adventure team configuration is sufficient for most situations.
The expression on the girl pastor's face changed very quickly. At first it was worry and surprise, then doubt and contemplation, and then a look of shock appeared on her face.
Because she recognized Sauron in front of her!
half a year.
Sauron didn't change much in appearance, what really changed was his aura, from a down-and-out thief in Amber City to the most powerful pirate king on the south coast.
The changes that happened to him made his aura completely different!
"you!……"
The girl priest couldn't help but took a step forward in surprise, and the wanderer next to her held her very vigilantly. An Liya still had an unbelievable expression on her face, and murmured: "You are Sauron?!..."
know?
He heard the girl priest in front of him call Sauron's name. The others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Because the man in front of him is undoubtedly impossible to defeat.
If they knew each other, they might be able to avoid the battle this time. Although they hadn't fought each other yet, the rest of the adventurer team was already in a cold sweat. The real murderous intent is not something that adventurers of their level can fight against. Not to mention that Sauron still has the fearful gaze endowed by divinity. If it were someone with a slightly weaker willpower, they might be so frightened that their legs would go limp.
clang!
Sauron withdrew his scimitar, looked at the young priest in front of him, nodded slightly and said, "Long time no see!"
"you!……"
The expression on the girl priest's face was a bit complicated, and she said slowly: "You are not dead! Great! I was always worried about the safety of you and Vivienne after such a big thing happened that day. But the next day I went to the slum area At that time, it had already turned into ruins. I have searched for a long time but have not found any trace of you."
"Is Vivienne okay?"
The expression on Sauron's face softened a little, and he said softly, "Vivienne is fine. We left Amber City a day earlier."
The young priest's face was full of doubts.
It seems that she has a lot of questions in her mind, such as why Sauron appeared here, and how his strength has become so strong in just over half a year. You must know after such a big thing happened in Amber City. She also put in double effort, and finally advanced to become a third-tier priest, but now it seems that she may not be able to walk a round in Sauron's hands.
Sauron didn't mean much.
He glanced at the rest of the adventurer team, and said in a deep voice, "You guys are here. Are you passing by for other missions, or are you here to investigate the aimless?"
silence.
Facing Sauron's question, the others were visibly silent. There was a little hesitation on the girl priest's face, and she gritted her teeth: "We have received a mission and need to investigate their identities! Are they called the Eyeless? Do you know their identities?"
Don't even know the situation of the aimless?
Sauron couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this, and didn't know if they were too courageous or in a hurry to die. Shen Sheng said: "If it is really for the purpose of investigating the aimless, I suggest that you go back now and ask the higher-level professionals to come over. With your current strength, it's okay if you can't find them. If you find them, you may not be able to go back alive." !"
Alarmist?
Or is it true?
Sauron's words made everyone else look serious. The ranger and thief next to him looked at each other, then leaned slightly and said, "Your Excellency! Do you know their situation? These people have killed many ordinary people. Recently, some church members are investigating them."
With Sauron's strength.
Regardless of good or evil, they deserve their honorable title.
Sauron looked down at the unconscious paladin, thought for a moment, and said, "The Eyeless. An organization that believes in evil gods. They like to gouge out the eyes of the enemies after they kill them, and they prefer to directly kill them in the sacrificial ceremony." Gouging out the eyeballs of living people. I'm not sure what powerful followers they come out to move, but I know that there are two legendary professionals among them."
"With your strength, you are going to die."
silence.
The girl pastor's expression was a little stiff, and she said slowly: "But the church has no way to mobilize any more manpower. Recently, the vampires have been acting abnormally, and all the high-level priests have been sent out to deal with those vampires."
vampire?
Could it be related to the vampire God Son?
Sauron frowned slightly when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with vampires recently?"
There was a little hesitation on the girl priest's face, and then she said, "Many vampire servants have appeared in the south and the north. We suspect that there is a vampire church that is constantly turning ordinary people into vampires. Recently, the priest of the Lord of Radiance is recruiting manpower. , The spread of vampires has greatly threatened the lives of ordinary people, and all the high-ranking members of the church have been sent out to deal with them."
It really looks like Reinhardt, son of the vampire god!
As the Son of Fear God with the title of vampire, he must have enough followers if he wants to expand his divine power.
Ordinary people cannot become his followers.
His core priesthood is the Lord of Vampires, which greatly limits the scope of his ability to absorb believers, so if he wants to expand his faith, he must convert other people into vampires. However, there are too many vampires, which in turn will threaten ordinary people. After all, the source of food for vampires goes without saying, and the appearance of too many vampire servants is definitely a disaster for ordinary people. This kind of thing will inevitably attract the attention of the Lord of Radiance. As a follower of the Light of Dawn, the young priest often needs to cooperate with the church actions of the Lord of Radiance.
Because the light of dawn is one of the gods of the glorious gods!
"Do you want to help her?"
Sauron couldn't help but fell into deep thought. He was somewhat sure about dealing with the Eyeless, even though he didn't like dealing with paladins very much, and others might not trust him either.
But to help them get rid of the Eyeless, maybe they can find a way to let the people of the Church of Radiance concentrate their efforts on dealing with the vampire God Son.
As the backbone of the good camp.
They will absolutely not allow creatures like vampires to spread, which means that the Church of Radiance and the Vampire God are more antagonistic, and it is basically impossible to reconcile.
The Vampire God Son is Sauron's greatest enemy right now.
And as the biggest pirate king on the south coast, he may not be his opponent now, after all, the opponent has successfully become a god.
Sauron didn't like to owe favors to others very much.
So after thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice, "Come with me. I'll help you track them down!"
After speaking, he turned and headed in one direction.
The adventurer team behind them looked at each other in obvious surprise, and finally turned their attention to the young priest. After seeing her nodding, they immediately stepped forward to help the unconscious paladin, and then quickly followed Sauron's pace.
A rogue who appears to be of legendary rank.
With the help of this lord, they will undoubtedly have a high chance of winning against the Eyeless.
Sauron's tracking ability has never been weak. Basically, after each battle, his basic skills have been slightly improved, but because these improvements are scattered, he doesn't care much about one or two points of basic skill improvement. Naturally, there is no need to pay too much attention. (Note: The one or two points of basic skill improvement after each battle are not specifically listed.)
Compared with the past, his overall basic skills have all been improved by 20 or 30 points, and the improvement in field survival, search, intimidation, and listening is even more obvious.
Sauron's tracking speed was very fast.
The adventurer team behind could only wake up the paladin, and then quickly followed.
There was a sound of arguing behind him. It seemed that the awakened paladin was still determined to destroy the evil. Sauron had no interest in caring about this at all, but if the other party dared to come forward again, he would definitely not follow him again. Show mercy.
The day passed like this.
Sauron advanced at high speed along the traces left behind, followed by the adventurer team all the way. The paladin seemed to repel him very much, but because he was knocked down by Sauron, there was still a little fear in his eyes.
If you really start a war.
They estimated that they would not last a few minutes in Sauron's hands.
the next day.
The traces of Sauron's pursuit became more and more obvious. The Eyeless People were obviously active in a large group, probably more than ten people in number, so the traces left behind were also more obvious.
They tracked the Eyeless all the way to a place in the North called Deadleaf Town.
As they approached the town, the traces left by the eyeless people in the wilderness faded a lot, but according to Sauron's intuition, the eyeless people should have entered the town.
"right here!"
He stopped in his tracks, turned around and glanced at the others, and said in a deep voice, "The Eyeless should be inside, your target is too obvious."
"Scatter, two people act together."
