Chapter 967: Acting School
"It's best that way."
Kardashian replied, then raised the inferior staff in her hand, and cast a spell to completely freeze the cracked corridor vault. Seeing this scene, the two elementalists from the Ice Fist Mercenary Corps also started to cast spells. After seven or eight minutes of busy work, the surrounding muck finally stopped falling, and everyone in the small space finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Damn it...it must have been done by those wood elves!"
Roddy cursed directly in a ruffian tone, while desperately patting the dirt on his hat and shoulders. Iskar behind him also spat: "When I get out, I will find them and hack them!"
"You guys hacked you, just leave us some beautiful girls when the time comes, hehe."
Rubens and Stiga are like a pair of good friends, dusting each other and laughing lewdly, but Kardashian glared at him just after they finished speaking: "Is there nothing else on your mind? Do you want to be Nata?" Exist?"
"Just kidding, kidding! Sir, don't take it to heart!"
Stika hurriedly begged for mercy, and Nata on the side whispered: "These wood elves and Elsa Village are in a very tense situation. They beat people in our village a while ago, and the head of Brody Village almost had a conflict with the other party. ,I do not know how it is…"
As the wood elf in the team, her identity is very sensitive at this moment. The mercenaries on Panda's side stared at her back and forth for a long time, and Devitt couldn't help but said: "This Miss Nata must not be with them—the group of wood elves who attacked us were all skinny like wood elves. He is the same, it seems that he has not had enough to eat all year round, and he is not as good as you at all."
For beautiful women, mercenaries are naturally less wary. Nata couldn't laugh either, and nodded to express her gratitude to DeWitt who spoke for her. This made the latter a little bit flustered, but Nata then turned out a water bag and instinctively wanted to pass it to Roddy.
Rody's hand was faster, he snatched it with his hands, and handed it to Kardashian without saying a word: "Master, drink some water first!"
Panda watched this scene silently. He had no doubts about Nata, but he still had some doubts about Rody's identity.
"Everyone, take a break first."
He greeted DeWitt, and the mercenaries relaxed for a moment. However, the two parties consciously occupied two parts of the corridor, with a distance of three meters between them.
"Get food and water in order."
He gave the order, then turned to Kardashian and said, "Captain Julia, what are your plans?"
"Of course I have to find a way to get out," Kardashian's staff exuded a soft light, revealing every detail in the corridor. She looked up and continued: "I'm afraid there is only one exit here. I guess we can only dig out from here."
It is unrealistic to drill a hole in a solid wall. Although magic can do this, the three mages present are not perpetual motion machines. Coupled with the fact that they don't trust each other, Panda didn't mention this kind of suggestion at all.
As a magician, Panda himself doesn't know how far magic can go, so he can only answer at this time: "Then I'm afraid our two teams need to work together to go out, otherwise it will take too long, and it is very likely Let everyone starve to death here."
"We only brought water and one day's dry food here," Kardashian responded very simply: "How about this, let's reach a magic agreement at Mutual House, there will be no conflicts before we go out, and we must work together to dig out the exit, how about it?"
"I can't ask for more."
At Kardashian's suggestion, Panda quickly reached this magical agreement. Because of the magic contract, the vigilance between the two parties is much smaller. Everyone began to quickly sort out the tools. In order to prevent bias, the two teams mixed and rotated the excavation team together, and at the same time let the mage and the magician assist the three teams respectively.
Because lives are at stake, no one is talking nonsense at this time. The first group soon began digging headlong toward the exit. Rubens and Essien were the strongest, and they were placed in the first team, and they started to get busy with the other mercenaries of the Ice Fist Mercenary Group. The two had no complaints about this, and Rubens spit on his hands twice before digging.
He looked like a countryman.
Rody was in the third group, and he recovered his strength first, so he sat on the side chatting with Iscar bored.
He seemed to talk a lot, and Iskar went to the side and huddled with Stika to lie down and rest after chatting for a while. Nata is a boring gourd, and Kardashian as the "leader" is also very cold, so Rody, who was ignored, started talking to himself, first cursing the wood elves endlessly, and then began to complain that all the treasures in the cave were destroyed. poaching thing. While talking, he leaned to the side, and said to the resting priest beside him, "The ghost knows what is written on this wall. If I know it, I can read the story at least."
The priest ignored him, but Rody didn't care. He raised his legs and leaned against the wall: "You are right, this group of high elves could create such beautiful reliefs hundreds of years ago, but now? Nata It is said that except for Elsa Village, the life of the wood elves in other villages is similar to that of wild monkeys, hungry and full, not to mention sculptures, they can't even make weapons."
The priest glanced at Panda, who shook his head, signaling not to say more. Rody noticed their expressions and pretended not to see them: "By the way, where is your 'Luna Sect'? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
It would be unreasonable not to answer this kind of question, because it is a suspicion of identity. The priest got the inspiration from Panda's eyes, and finally said: "The moon god Strian is a god that coexists with the world. Its existence is as long and great as the world we live in."
"Really? What do you do every day, do you pray to the moon?" Rody smiled heartlessly, "I know a few 'rose cross' people who talk nonsense all day long. But I haven't seen any changes in them, they should be sick, they should be injured."
What the priest wanted to say, but Rody didn't stop at all: "—I asked him specifically: 'Why did the gods make you suffer?' He told me: 'Everyone of us has sinned, and we need to endure pain to wash away. Clearing up sins'——hahahahaha, I really believe in this nonsense! I usually call it hurt when I get hurt, but if I believe in religion, it's called redemption if I get hurt? Will the one who gets stabbed the most be the so-called one? Heaven?"
"The Luna Sect doesn't say that," the priest finally couldn't hold back, and retorted: "We are all children of nature, born of the world, and praying to the Moon God is just to make the whole world more peaceful. Less violence and crime, less conflict and contradiction, this is the meaning of the existence of the moon god Strian."
"Don't fight? Then how do we mercenaries live? Isn't this the god who ruined our jobs—hey, just kidding, just say that."
Seeing his gloomy face, Rody smoothed things over with a playful smile. His seemingly rambling words actually inadvertently outlined the outline of the Luna Sect. "Doctrine" is not just a few empty rhetoric, but behind it reveals the foundation of the entire sect.
What the priest said made Rody realize that the "Luna Religion" itself does not seem to be too aggressive, which is completely different from the Rose Cross and Viper Cross, which have a standing army and are always ready to declare war on the heretics. In other words, this peaceful sect may not be very aggressive in the use of divine arts.
"Since you yearn for peace, why do you still come to this kind of place?"
After finishing speaking, he did not forget to add: "I'll just ask casually. If there is any offense, it doesn't matter if you don't answer."
"Luna Religion is a religion that developed and grew during the High Elves period, so we hope to find more books or records related to the doctrine. At present, many materials of Luna Religion are severely missing, and many prayers are incomplete."
Panda finally joined the discussion, and Rody showed a look of trepidation: "I understand what Priest Panda said. My name is Charlie, and there are only about forty ivory mercenaries. We are here to make a fortune." The opportunity came, I thought I got a lot of things, but it turned out...hey, I didn't expect it was all fake!"
