Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 564: God of the moon at nine o'clock

Views:

Savannah, night.

The caravan rushed back to the Norton Kingdom overnight, but unfortunately, they waited until three o'clock in the morning.

A mercenary ran back from the road ahead. His eyes were wide open and his face was frightened, as if he saw something incomprehensible.

"Captain, there is a problem ahead."

The head of the mercenary regiment was naturally Milo, and his health was much better now than during the day. The symptoms of poisoning had completely disappeared, and his strength had basically recovered.

After hearing the report, he frowned, glanced left and right, and lowered his voice: "Tell me in a low voice, don't spread it."

He was afraid of causing panic in the caravan.

The mercenary was full of anxiety, and whispered: "Commander, there is something blocking the road ahead. This thing is very wide, transparent, and almost invisible, but it is like a wall, a high wall. No roof, a wide wall without sides."

"..." Milo's eyes widened. His knowledge was much better than that of ordinary mercenaries. At this moment, he already had a rough guess in his heart: "I'm afraid it's the magic barrier set up by those strong people, and something big will happen."

When he said this, Milo felt a sense of powerlessness. Compared with those legendary powerhouses on the mainland, his strength was really too weak, like a speck of dust in front of the boulder, and the boulder moved casually , he would have to be smashed to pieces.

There was nothing to hide about this matter, anyway, there was nothing he could do, so he turned to the president of the Red Earth Chamber of Commerce and told him about it.

The president of the Red Earth Chamber of Commerce is a businessman, an ordinary person, and he has a lot of knowledge. After hearing this, his face turned pale. After a long silence, he said, "Mi Luo, what do you think?"

Milo had a general idea in his mind, so he said it at this moment: "Those strong men are definitely not here to deal with us. What we have to beware of is the aftermath of the battle if they break out in conflict. I heard that the two legendary strong men Ordinary people collide with each other, and the force aftermath may stretch for dozens of kilometers. Within this range, ordinary people will die. I think the best way for us now is to find a low-lying place to hide. If there is a cave or something, then Even better, we all hid in the cave, and the entrance of the cave was covered with thatch, and the earth should provide us with defense."

The president had no idea for a long time. When Milo said this, he felt it made sense, and said, "Okay, okay, then do as you say."

Milo began to make arrangements, and after a while, the mercenaries all scattered out to find suitable hiding places. Although the people in the chamber of commerce were panicked, there was no crisis at all, and they continued to move forward.

After walking about 3,000 meters, everyone saw the transparent air wall reported by the mercenary before. It seemed soft to the touch, but with a little force, the air wall became as hard as steel. , the air wall just stands still.

Everyone can clearly see the situation on the other side, but they just can't get through, things are so weird.

Some people yelled to vent their fear, some cried out, and more people remained silent. Everyone's face was pale, and they were helplessly waiting for the judgment of fate.

The mercenary leader Milo has also been staying in the caravan, which made the people in the caravan feel a little more at ease. Compared with the others who were helpless, this leader Milo at least found some ways to deal with it. How flustered. Captain Miro played a big role in keeping the caravan from collapsing.

While everyone was waiting quietly for the mercenaries to come back to report the results of the surrounding exploration, three green hazes suddenly appeared in the sky.

The light mist flew towards the caravan at an unimaginable speed, reaching the caravan almost as soon as it appeared.

Originally, the light mist flew over the caravan without any intention of stopping, but after flying over, it turned back, and then there were three more figures with cloaks covering their heads and faces in front of everyone.

One of them walked forward, crossed the crowd, walked up to Milo, looked him up and down, and asked, "Have you seen those poisonous orcs before, and have you been poisoned?"

The voice is clear and crisp, it is a woman.

Milo wanted to ask this person's background in his heart, but for some reason, when the person asked, his body seemed to be uncontrollable by consciousness, he nodded proactively, and said: "Yes, I was hit poison, but was later detoxified."

"How do you solve it?"

"I don't know, a moonlight suddenly shot down from the sky, and then my body recovered." Milo said.

"Moonlight?" the man in the cloak said something, it seemed a little strange, she made a move suddenly, the movement was ridiculously fast, and stabbed Milo's arm with a thorn.

After retracting the thorn, some blood was stained on the tip of the thorn. He licked it, and then fell silent. About ten minutes later, the man said, "I want to borrow something from you."

"What... what?" Milo felt very bad in his heart.

"Use your lives. Of course, you can't refuse." After speaking, the man waved his hand, and a light green mist appeared over the entire caravan.

The mist descended suddenly, covering everyone in the caravan, and the people in the merchant coughed again and again. After about ten seconds, the light green mist disappeared, and there were more than 300 people in the entire caravan, and everyone's face appeared A hint of green.

"Now, you are all poisoned. After about two hours, you will lose your mind and become the poisonous beastmen you have encountered. In these two hours, all you have to do is to pray for the life-saving moonlight to appear again. Remove the toxins from your body. Well, it’s useless for you to scold me, doing it will only make you die faster, please pray.”

After speaking, the man walked out of the crowd and returned to his companions. Afterwards, the three of them turned into green light and went away again.

On the prairie, the members of the chamber of commerce sat down on the ground. Everyone's faces were ashen and their hearts were ashamed. Even the always optimistic and cheerful girl Sally was stunned. She stood beside her father blankly, unable to believe them. suffer such bad luck.

"Father, why did she do this? We didn't mess with her." The girl asked her father Aurang beside her.

Aurang smiled wryly and looked at his daughter in pain. He didn't expect that they would die here in the end. If he had known this, he shouldn't have brought her out this trip.

"Father, why?" Sally asked.

Aurang shook his head in pain: "Sally, probably... probably because we shouldn't be alive."

Sally was silent, but after a while, a glimmer of hope appeared in her heart: "Father, do you think God will save us?"

"God?" Aurang was taken aback.

"Yeah, he saved Miro and El before, he was very kind, and he will save us now, for sure!" Sally regained her confidence, and she waved her arms vigorously, as if to Cheer yourself up.

Suddenly, she remembered something again, she stood up, climbed on the horseback, and shouted: "Everyone, don't panic, if God knows what's going on here, He will definitely save us, but we must first let Him know our situation , let us pray!"

As soon as these words came out, the caravan showed a slight vitality.

In this moment of despair, any hope, even if it is like a twig floating in the sea, is worth holding on to.

But soon someone raised a question: "But we don't know his god's name, how can we pray?"

"He must be the Lord of Radiance."

"That's not necessarily the case. The Lord of Radiance has never performed miracles outside the church, and the previous power is not like the Holy Power of Radiance."

Sally didn't expect to encounter such troubles, but she had a clever mind and quickly came up with an idea: "His power is like moonlight, and it was a miracle that appeared at nine o'clock last night, so we will call him He's the moon god at nine o'clock, right?"

"..." Those who heard this were extremely speechless.

But Sally didn't care. She knelt on the truck and began to pray seriously: "God of Moonlight at nine o'clock, you are merciful and merciful, just like the moonlight to drive away the darkness of the world. I beg you to save me from bad luck, I will Dedicated to you, spread your glory, and I will give my soul to you."

She didn't care whether she got a response or not, and whether her prayers were in line with the rules, she just said it over and over again, praying for salvation.

At the beginning, she was alone, but slowly, someone followed, especially Milo, the mercenary leader. He hesitated for a moment, knelt on the ground, and began to pray in a low voice.

He didn't learn Sally's prayers, he only prayed to the hope in his heart: "Lord, you saved me once, I swore at that time that I will stay away from any darkness in this life and be a responsible warrior for the rest of my life. Now, I have fallen into the abyss again, if you think I am still worth saving, please give me a hand."

The mercenary El was even more straightforward. He knelt down on the ground and cast his body on the ground: "Lord, help me!"

Slowly, the people in the chamber of commerce knelt on the ground one by one and began to pray.

This time the prayer was truly sent out in a desperate situation, absolutely sincere, and without any impurities.

Behind a bush, three high elves, Katyusha, Fallen Angel, and Pamisso, the Storm Swordsman, hid quietly. Seeing the situation in the chamber of commerce, several of them murmured in their hearts.

Katyusha said in a low voice: "What's the matter with the nine o'clock God of Moonlight? Doesn't it really exist?"

The fallen angel also spoke, his voice was a little weak: "Sharp ears, don't lie to others, if a god is really going to send you down later, the three of you will have to die too!"

No matter how strong the legend is, it is still an ant to God. Usually, the gods will not care about the legendary powerhouse because of the huge consumption of divine power coming to the plane, but if you interfere with the plan of the gods, for example, take the initiative to provoke a certain mortal apostle chosen by the gods.

There is a synonym for this kind of behavior, which is courting death.

For example, the Lord of Radiance is generally recognized as a gentle god, but in history, he sent divine punishment at least twice, and each time at least one strong man fell. Of course, the actions of these strong men were too much. They didn't know where their brains were twitched, and they went to attack the Holy City, and the result was a tragedy on the spot.

There are usually two methods of divine punishment, both of which require a medium.

If there is an altar, then it will directly descend on the altar; if there is no altar, but there is a mortal messenger, then this mortal messenger will be infused with divine power by the gods, possessing the invincible power of the plane in an instant, sweeping away all opponents.

Now, judging from the prayers of this group of people, I am afraid that there are mortal messengers of God among these businessmen, for example, that young girl looks a little like that.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, legendary powerhouses and gods have established rules, and everyone lives separately, and there will be no intersection.

To be honest, Avril felt a little guilty. The clues she got showed that the person who expelled the poison this time should be a legendary strong man, but who can say clearly about the gods

Especially the legendary power she felt was very pure and restrained, almost surpassing the limit of the legendary powerhouse.

Thinking about it this way, she also started to think about it.

Just when they were hesitating, Link and Amanda also arrived on the other side of the grass.

Amanda looked at the devoutly praying caravan, and asked strangely: "What did they do, who is the God of Moonlight?"

Link looked a little dumbfounded, and he explained casually: "I secretly rescued two poisoned mercenaries before, and I'm afraid I was mistaken."

"Oh, do you feel where they are now?" Amanda didn't worry about it. He just got Link's help, and his strength basically returned to its peak. At this time, he had a thought in his mind to find those high elves revenge.

Link nodded: "I feel it."

"Where is it?" Amanda clenched the obsidian sword.

"Wait a minute, I'll set up a magic circle to protect these ordinary people."

"This may expose us..." Amanda hesitated to speak, they were already lacking in strength, which would make them passive.

Link nodded: "I know, but they are of the same family after all, so it's really hard to live up to."

As soon as he said this, Amanda stopped talking. He remembered the rage in his heart when he first saw the tragedy in Mara City. In this regard, the lord of this human race was exactly the same as him.

'At first, I was worried that he was a magician, cunning and changeable, but I didn't expect that he was the same as me. 'Amanda felt that she understood the human magician.
