For Akasha, who has always lived in the southern part of the kingdom, "orcs" are always just symbols of cruelty and greed in the mouth of bards. They are bloodthirsty and warlike, and even eat people alive. They are powerful and barbaric... Humans are completely weak against orcs. If they don't have sophisticated weapons, they will be hard to match
But these two guys who don't know what kind of forces they belong to have entered the orc kingdom
Akasha felt her head was in a mess all of a sudden, and she even wondered if she had an auditory hallucination—while she was in a daze, the conversation between Roddy and Soderol was still going on.
"Such a big conflict broke out between the rose cross and the cross. I could have completely stayed out of it, but I decided to invite you to participate... Speaking of which, my state at this time is actually similar to when I went to the orc kingdom."
Soderol raised his eyebrows, and asked with some puzzlement: "It is Francis you are afraid of? He—
Rody waved his hand: "Remember when I went to Finks Village and asked you to evacuate the villagers? Why did Sally agree so readily? Because she also knew that the orcs attacked the village because of the information provided by Francis."
"He is a traitor, he will do such a thing now, and he will do it in the future, so we must get rid of him."
Having said that, the atmosphere became a little silent.
"In short, whether I can accomplish anything, I think it depends on the person's current state. For example... I finally made some extra money, and I am one step closer to cultivating the Kingdom's First Cavalry Regiment, so I feel very comfortable , Do whatever you want to do in the future.
This is the tone of a joke. Regarding the idea of the "Knights", Rody once said that Soderol is still a "normal person" after all, and he never thought that his group of scouts could become the "Kingdom's First Cavalry Regiment" , Laughing and saying these things are too nonsense.
But Akasha, who was eavesdropping on this, frowned—they seemed to be more than just going to the orc kingdom to kill... Could it be that they also killed an earl
Count Francis? Isn't that the eldest son of the Duke of Luciferon
If someone else said that, Akasha would never believe it, but listening to their tone, they were indeed serious—if this kind of thing was specially used to deceive people, it would be fine, but it happened to be brought up during the casual conversation between the two of them. As a result, Akasha became suspicious...
Maybe, is it true
"With such a big incident happening today, the Rose Cross probably has to slow down..."
Suo Deluoer turned the topic to the central role of today's incident, "I have the impression that these religions are very moderate. I didn't expect such a big commotion this time."
"The big tree attracts the wind. Religion—hey, gathering resources and brainwashing people is much more convenient than noble lords. The Viper Cross is the same, but it's just done a little bit more." Luo Di drank his saliva and leaned back On the back, he said casually, "Many things are glamorous on the surface, but the interior is actually filthy. I don't just talk about the rose cross. What, just talking about the cross is definitely a bottomless pit."
"You still know them?"
"I know some... that sect looks peaceful on the outside, but is extremely extreme inside. People who don't understand think it is some kind of sect at first, but after entering, they find that the inside is in dire straits. When you find that you have become a thug and a terrorist, then There is no way to escape. Let me say that the sooner this sect disappears, the sooner it will benefit the kingdom."
The two of them usually chatted in this tone, and today they were a little excited after the end of the war, and they chatted a lot without knowing it. Suo Deluoer is often curious about these novel but profound views of Roddy, but it is not enough to say that he has absorbed or convinced them all. After all, he is a person with a brain and can think. Cruel and immoral", he would not believe without evidence.
But it doesn't matter if he doesn't believe it, Akasha's heart is set off by a huge wave...
What is this captain? How could he have such a thorough understanding of the "Viper Cross"
If the previous words only made Akasha suspicious, then what Rody said at this time completely made her "identify"—Akasha, as a high-level "priest of light", the reason why It is because of the "high-handed rule" within this sect that it has been reduced to follow the "Viper Cross" to engage in terrorist activities
Punishment and threats, countless believers have embarked on a road of no return.
Akasha, who came back to her senses, suddenly changed a lot in her perception of Rody. At least the feeling of being understood made her original "disgust" disappear a lot, and she began to guess Rody's identity in her heart...
Is he the captain of a certain cavalry regiment, or the direct servant of a great noble? Or the captain of the private guard
Countless possibilities popped up in my mind, but I was completely stunned by Roddy's words afterwards—
"Okay, after this matter is over, Sally will make a note for us. When we have a chance, we don't have to be scouts in the village every day. Damn, the orcs are almost slaughtered by us, and we still patrol An egg."
He was complaining idly over there, but Akasha swallowed firmly...
Scouts, they turned out to be scouts—isn't this unit the lowest in the military system? It's even the endorsement of "cannon fodder"
"I heard that the group of pagans in the square today are very powerful. Is there any magic in the group of pagans?"
Soderol asked about today's battle in the square.
"There are four or five people who know spells, and the most powerful one is 'Shadow Priest'. If you meet him head-on, you will die. But at that time, he continued to cast spells to deal with those two old magic sticks. It’s really easy to use, and it’s done with one arrow.”
"If you put it this way, I also think that the equipment of the Rose Cross is really good. When I fought with that group of mercenaries this afternoon, I could clearly feel that those guys..."
The two began to talk about the weapons in the Rosicrucian arsenal, while Akasha, who was lying on the bed on the other side, felt a little suffocated—the person who shot Gallup to death with an arrow turned out to be him
I originally thought that I was saved by a few inconspicuous little people, but I never thought that these people are so cruel that they can't be more cruel, "killing the earl" and "killing the witch doctor" at one time, and the stories in the bard's mouth are not the same. What a joke...
"By the way, I've been pretending to be a bard some time ago, and we made a story about our experience of beating orcs for nothing. I didn't expect it to be fucking popular—hey..."
Hearing this, Akasha felt her eyes go dark, and she almost fainted again.
The intermittent conversation gradually weakened after a long day. Obviously, after a busy day, Roddy and Suo Deluoer were hungry enough, so they got up and prepared to eat something:
"Is anyone still watching here?"
"Her? If she is seriously injured like this, just find someone to guard at the door."
The two walked out of the house while chatting. When the wooden door closed with a "click", Akasha only felt that her mind was full of messy and complicated thoughts—she never thought that a low-level soldier like a "scout" who was ignored by others could do something. Seeing such exaggerated things, especially the fact that Roddy was able to kill Gallup... This fact really scared her enough.
But after these emotions gradually calmed down, Akasha felt a little lonely and sad.
Seeing others strive for their goals and achieve results, while he is frustrated and even seriously injured, this feeling of gap makes Akasha really uncomfortable. Although she didn't fully agree with Rody's "status" after listening to it, she also felt that it made sense—because as far as Akasha herself was concerned, her status was always "submissive", which is why she ended up like this today. fate.
Thinking about it carefully, I almost never tried my best to strive for any goal, even when I wrote the letter to Rubens, I hesitated and thought about it. After all, her "confusion" at this time caused her heart to have no What goal-all behaviors are just instinctive "seeking good luck and avoiding bad luck".
In the past, Akasha always avoided thinking about the reason why she ended up like this, but at this moment, what Rody said made her finally realize her biggest flaw...
Confused, helpless, fearful, under the final emotions, the first extremely strong desire in a long time gradually rose in her mind——
get away from here
Get out of here, no longer be controlled and used by religion, never deal with these annoying people and things, stay away from all troubles, stay away from all these
This thought was like a seed rooted in his heart, it quickly germinated, and Akasha immediately put it into action.
After she could barely move her fingers, she silently chanted the prayer of "low-level recovery technique". The soft golden light enveloped her body, slowly recovering the wounds on her body, the pain gradually subsided, and the fractured part of the arm was slightly itchy But because of the low level of divine arts, such a serious injury did not recover immediately, but after two or three consecutive low-level divine arts treatments, the wound on his back basically healed. When the arm was almost fully movable, she immediately released the "advanced recovery technique", which immediately restored her body to seven or eighty-eight.
This is the strength of the recovery system "Priest of Light". The nickname "Nurse" by players is by no means a false name. As long as she can't be beaten to death, she can always recover quickly—just because of the excessive blood loss, Akasha's head is still a little bit dizzy.
There were footsteps outside the door, and Akasha, who just wanted to get up, immediately lay back on her stomach. The intermittent conversation indicated that this was a scout member who had come to watch her on shift. Silence returned.
After more than ten minutes, Akasha, who still didn't dare to move, slowly turned her face away, looked around, and confirmed that the scout was sitting there dozing tiredly in front of her, and then softly recited the prayer.
The function of "Divine Art: Appeasement" was originally to calm people's extreme emotions such as excitement or anger at certain moments, but when it was cast on ordinary people, it had an effect similar to "hypnotism".
Although Akasha has never had a "killing and decisive" mind, she has never left behind in the study of divine arts. This may be the only thing she is willing to spend her time studying—for example, "Divine Art: Soothe" can hypnotize. Things, ordinary magicians will not know at all.
Watching the scout guarding her fall asleep under the effect of divine magic, Akasha tried her best to overcome the dizziness after losing too much blood, pushed the door and went out...
