Volume 18, Chapter 44: Sneaking Into the Temple

Chapter 44 Sneaking into the Temple

After I asked the question, the woman did not answer my question immediately. Instead, she bowed to me first and then said, "I want to ask Mr. Ziri to do me a favor. "

The woman's words stunned me. There were many people who asked me for help in the past, but she was definitely the first person who dared to open her mouth even if she was so afraid. "Tell me your requirements and what you plan to use as reward. If I think it's a good deal, I'll help you."

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately raised her head and looked at me excitedly and said, "Then you agreed?"

"Wait a minute. When did I say I agreed? You haven't told me what exactly you want me to do?"

"It's like this." The woman explained: "I was actually a magician once, but in order to 'force' me to marry her, Solo begged a seal from the temple to completely seal my power. Now I am There is almost no difference from ordinary people. If you can help me destroy this seal, then I am willing to pay you whatever you think is appropriate."

After hearing what this woman said, I bent over with great interest and put my hands on Ye Ying's neck, looked at her and asked, "Is the remuneration you said I think is appropriate too general? Can I understand that this is A contract of sale?"

"Yes, as long as you can help me lift the seal, then I am willing to be your slave."

I held out three fingers and said: "First, there is no shortage of people around me. Second, I don't know your strength yet. Even if I need help, you may not be qualified. Third, how can you be sure that I will Can you break the seal?"

I originally thought that the woman would beg me aggrievedly after I asked, but who knew that she also held out three fingers without being humble or haughty. "First, the lack of people is relative. As long as I have the ability, to you, it is the manpower you lack. Second, you can absolutely rest assured about my strength. In the human world, except for the gods, I basically Can deal with most enemies. Of course, the premise is that I must get all my power back. Third, the way to lift the seal is to kill the person who placed the seal or the god who provided the seal. Of course, I have no intention of letting you go Fighting with gods is too difficult after all. You only need to kill Zoro. He is the user of the seal, I am the bearer, and the god who provided the seal is the guarantor. The three parties in this seal only need to If one of them no longer exists, the seal will naturally be lifted."

When I heard what that woman said, the first thing I thought of was not how to help her fulfill her request, but how to use her affairs to infiltrate the other party's forces. First of all, this woman is a local. If she is willing to provide me with cover, then I will basically not be exposed. After all, everything will be much easier with a local guide. Second, even if I am discovered, this woman's mission can confuse the enemy very well, making others think that I am only here to complete the mission, but my real purpose is to investigate the secrets of the Russian protoss. Of course, I would also be very happy if I could kill one or two high-level gods and earn some experience points.

"what's your name?"

"Huh?" The woman didn't expect that I would suddenly ask her her name. She was stunned for a moment when she heard my question, and then replied: "My name is Celia Annette Augustine. You can call me Celia."

"Do you know where Zoro is now?"

"In..." Celia was about to answer but suddenly froze. "You mean you agreed?"

I nodded and said: "I will help you restore your mana first, and then look at your strength. If you are really strong and can meet my requirements, I will take you to my guild and give you a suitable job." work. Don’t worry, I won’t treat you as a slave. You are considered our official employee and enjoy the same treatment as other employees. Of course, this premise is that you have enough strength for me to admit. If I finally find out that your strength is not If you can't satisfy me, then I will come back and see if you have anything else that can be used as payment. Judging from your father's appearance, he should be the city lord here, right? I think he should have enough family resources to bear the cost."

"Yes, if you don't like my strength, we can pay with other things. Thank you very much. Well, please wait a moment, I will take you to Zoro right now."

"Stop riding your horse, that thing is too slow." I made a move, and Xiaoxue suddenly appeared next to Yeying, then with a pick of his head, he threw Celia onto his back, and then spread his wings It flapped and flew up.

Because the people next to us heard our conversation before, the people around us didn’t have much reaction to our sudden departure. They were just shocked by Xiaoxue’s beauty. Celia, who was riding on Xiaoxue's back, was also surprised by the mount beneath her. Silver-winged unicorns are extremely rare creatures even in the God Realm. Celia has only seen them from a distance once before. Let alone riding them, she has never even 'touched' them. Today, she can suddenly ride on a silver-winged unicorn. The sight of the unicorn on its back made her so excited that her breathing became rapid. Fortunately, she knew she had something to do now, so she immediately calmed down and gave me directions: "Go to the end of the street ahead and turn left to reach the teleportation array. We can just teleport to the City of Knights from there. "

"City of Knights? Isn't that your country?"

"Yes. The protoss who vouched for Solo is the God of War. His temple is in the center of our capital city of Knights."

"Haha, it seems that this guy is born with an unlucky fate." Originally, if I hadn't met Celia, I would have found trouble with this god of war. Who said he was the god closest to me. Unexpectedly, I took on a small mission and it was still pointed at him, so I said that this guy is unlucky, and he will never escape the fate of causing trouble for me.

Of course, Celia didn't know about my previous plan, so she couldn't understand my words at all, but she also knew that this matter was not her concern, so she didn't ask.

After flying directly from the air to the door of the Teleportation Palace, we landed. Then, with Celia leading the way, we directly used the teleportation array to teleport to the City of Knights. Because Celia said that the city of knights is the royal capital and it is forbidden to ride mounts except those with special permission, so I put away Yeying and Xiaoxue in advance. Rules don't really matter to me, but I don't want to cause any extra trouble, so it's better to keep a low profile.

When you walk out of the teleportation array here in the City of Knights, you can immediately feel the huge difference between this place and the previous City of Hope. Although the villagers I met when asking for directions said that Hope City is a large city, in my opinion it is just a small town. The so-called Royal Capital in front of me, although not as big as I imagined, is still bigger than Hope City. A lot. At least its prosperity can be seen from the road in front of you. The roads in Hope City are only about six meters wide, which is fine for people to walk on, but a little crowded if there are cars. However, the road surface in the City of Knights is 16 meters long. Even if several cars are running parallel to each other, it will not feel crowded. Although it is not comparable to the square-like main road in Essinger, it is still quite good.

"You are familiar with this place, so you can lead the way." I said to Celia.

Celia nodded and took me out of the Teleportation Hall. However, she did not take me directly to Solo. Instead, she took me to a strange building first. This building is located directly opposite the Teleportation Hall, and it only has a rather large reception hall. There was an endless stream of people coming and going in the hall, and it felt like they were almost catching up with the flow of people in the Teleportation Hall.

"What is this place?"

"Alien Registration Office."

"Huh?" I was startled. "Is there still such a thing in the city of knights?"

"What? Is it weird?"

"It's really strange. I've never heard of any city having something like this before."

"That's probably because there is a temple here!" Celia replied uncertainly.

"There are many cities with temples, but here is the only one with such a registration office. I think someone wants to use this thing to monitor outsiders. After you take me here to register, we will be targeted immediately, and I guess we can do whatever we want from now on. It’s become very inconvenient!”

“But if you don’t register here, you’ll be arrested if you step out of this street!”

"Did you tell me earlier?" I said, pulling Celia to an inconspicuous corner, and then asked Celia to help me block it a little. The moment Celia blocked the corner, I entered. Now that I have entered the stealth mode, not to mention not registering, even if I wanted to kill someone on the street, few people would be able to spot me. "Okay, let's go out now."

"Are you invisible?" Celia heard my voice but was surprised to find that my figure disappeared.

"Just know that I'm by your side. Now just move forward and I'll be right behind you."

"Okay, don't get lost." After Celia said that, she turned and walked out of the registration office, and then I followed her out. After returning to the street, Celia's speed was obviously much slower, probably because she was afraid that I would lose her. After all, she couldn't see me now, so she was inevitably a little nervous.

We walked less than fifty meters like this when we suddenly heard a shout. "Celia!"

I followed Celia, and I obviously noticed that her whole body trembled when she heard the cry, but I understood everything after seeing the person who made the sound. The person who came was none other than Solo. Although I had never seen him before, I recognized him at a glance, because this kid was wearing exactly the same equipment as me. If he hadn't worn a helmet, he would have looked exactly like me.

Seeing the guy running over, Celia immediately wanted to retreat in fear, but she only took one step back before I reached out to stop her. "Don't be afraid, I'm right behind you. I can fight a hundred people like him. If he dares to do anything, I promise to kill him as soon as possible."

Celia calmed down visibly at my reassurance. Thinking about it, she was originally a high-level combatant, but now that her strength has been blocked, she will naturally be scared. It was not until I reminded her that she thought of the existence of me as a super bodyguard, and her mood stabilized.

Zoro on the opposite side quickly ran over, then stood in front of Celia excitedly and said: "Celia, why did you come to the City of Knights? Are you here to find me? Haha, I am so excited. I just said, sooner or later, my sincerity will touch you. Come, come back with me." After that Solo said a lot of words, he didn't care about anything, and immediately stretched out his hand to pull Celia away. , Celia originally wanted to struggle, but after I reminded her in a low voice, she half-pushed and half-heartedly let Solo pull her away.

Although I am invisible now, this is still on the street. If I take action, I will definitely be discovered, so I must leave the crowded area. Although Celia didn't want to follow, she also knew that if she wanted to completely solve the problem, she had to get rid of Zoro, so she had no choice but to follow my advice and let Zoro pull her away.

My original plan was that Zoro would take us back to his palace, and then I would take the opportunity to capture him and 'force' him to ask about the temple. I heard that golden-haired uncle say before that this guy seemed to be some kind of temple knight, and he should know more about temples, so that it would be easier for me to get closer to that temple. However, slightly different from my plan, Zoro did not take Celia back to his palace, but took her directly to the temple.

As soon as we turned onto the road in front of the temple, I spotted two eagle-eyed guards standing at the door of the temple. This special NPC, which is very popular in European temples, has no other ability but is good at identifying disguises. If I followed him like this now, I would definitely be discovered immediately. However, although the Eagle Eye Guards are not considered a high-level unit, their number is very small, so it is impossible for them to be everywhere in the entire temple. It’s just that I can’t enter through the main entrance.

While the distance was still relatively far, I quickly approached Celia and whispered in her ear: "The two guards at the door are anti-invisible, so I can't enter through the door. I will 'touch' myself into the temple from another place later. You Don't be nervous, just follow Zoro. I have put my summoned creatures on both of you, so I can know your situation at any time."

Although Celia was a little nervous after hearing my words, she finally nodded. After she confirmed, I quickly left the road and jumped onto the building next to it, and then after a few ups and downs, I arrived at the buildings on the side of the temple. After releasing a large number of ghost bugs to survey the surrounding environment, I easily 'touched' into the interior of the temple along an unguarded route.

Speaking of which, although this Martial God Temple is built in the God Realm, its scale is not as big as the Light Temple and Dark Temple in various countries. I don’t know if this Martial God is not doing well or for some other reason.

After entering from the side of the temple, I carefully passed through several buildings, and then 'touched' the back door exit of the temple hall. To enter the temple, you must exit through this door. The hall in front is just a place to receive some routine work. The real temple personnel are in the back. The place where Zoro wants to take Celia to him must not be in the hall in front, so they can definitely wait here. However, after I waited at the back door of the hall for a few minutes, Celia and the others did not come in, but I saw another group of people, and they were also a group of extremely important people.
