Lorende was a middle-aged priest in his fifties, but he wore the Mediterranean hairstyle deliberately cut by the monks of the European Middle Ages, and with the large amount of sweat that oozed from his eagerness, the bald head could not see the radiance of divinity, but felt very stuffy and ......

Wretched?

But it doesn't matter what he looks like, what matters is the information he brings.

The basement of the Temple of the Nine Holy Spirits blew up......

It came to pass that not long ago he had prayed with other pastors and believers, and when it was nearing the end, everyone felt the ground tremble under their feet, and then a bitter chill swept over everyone's hearts.

Before they knew what was happening, a lot of ghouls and skeletons poured out of the basement.

Fortunately, these priests are not vegetarians, and there is a god covering that is really extraordinary, and with the guards who rushed to hear the news, they quickly evacuated the crowd and drove the undead back from the gushing out.

How could there be undead running out of the basement beneath the temple?

The reason is very simple, because the last fortress and refuge of the Wolfheart Queen Portmar is under the current Holy Spirit Temple.

Combining the legend and the gushing undead, the high priest immediately thought that it was the ghost of the Queen of Wolfheart, so he asked the soldiers to guard the entrance and exit, and ran to report it with a roar.

In fact, he is not the only one who can think of this, there are still many believers in the temple when everything happens, and after these people escape from the temple, it is estimated that the resurrection of the wolfheart queen will be publicized all over the city.

Dugu City has to go all out to deal with this stall of the Storm Cloak rebels, and it is not good news that the Queen of Wolf Heart ran out to make trouble.

It is said that if the Queen of Wolf Heart is really resurrected, she can become the emperor as she wishes, because she is the only remaining bloodline of Saiputin, this family is all dragonborn, and now the emperor is a member of another family.

Of course, the premise is that the whole empire accepts an immortal old lady as emperor.

Anyway, things happened just as An Yizhi and the Brave Invincible said, and since it happened, we had to find a way to solve it.

But it won't be easy.

Potmar's dungeon is not suitable for a large number of legions, so it can only be entered by elite squads, and elite squads ......

There are really none in Dugu City now, and they are all sent to the front line to fight the Storm Cloak. You can't let the court mage and the general Tulius go down with a team of officers, whether they can kill the suspected resurrected Potmar is another matter, in case they have some casualties, the entire army's chain of command will be in trouble.

The knight aristocracy who had just been angry with the nobles was full of fighting spirit, but they couldn't be easily consumed, that was the real right-hand man of the lord, and it was better to let General Tulius send it from the empire.

Although he certainly didn't want to.

When Lord Alicifer was worried, An Yizhi took the initiative to ask for help, for the happiness of the people of Dugu City and world peace, he volunteered to participate in this dangerous mission of nine deaths and one life.

Of course, An Yizhi didn't take the wrong medicine, this thing won't do day work, what kind of world peace, it's my business.

After saying it again, he immediately revealed his true colors and asked for a reward of 10,000 gold coins, and half of it had to be paid first.

- Sure enough, it's still scraping the ground and peeling the skin.

10,000 gold coins is not a small number, even if the lord takes out so much money at once, it will feel painful, so this money can only be transferred from the treasury, but not a penny in the treasury has already been arranged, and temporary changes will affect the entire plan.

So the housekeeper Buddha Ke hurriedly began to bargain with An Yizhi...... I mean, friendly negotiations, and finally it was agreed to give 8,000 and pay a deposit of 1,000 upfront.

Even if An Yizhi opened his mouth wide and asked for a price, the other party did not refuse, mainly because they were very easy to use.

1000 gold coins to send two adventurers who don't want to die to go down to the famous Queen of Wolfheart, it is the best, and it is nothing to pay the final payment, and if it fails, it can be regarded as a pathfinder, so that your side can have more time to prepare to fight against the undead army of Portmar.

I have to say that both sides are not very kind, I am afraid that only the brave and invincible are present and think that 'the evil undead must be eradicated'.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The Holy Spirit Temple is not too far from the Blue Palace, just a halfway through the Gloomy Castle.

The closest building to it is a tall castle, which is not only the current headquarters of the Imperial Army, but also the barracks. Because of this, the guards were able to rush to the scene in the fastest time.

The four guards were two in front and two behind, sandwiching An Yizhi and the brave invincible in the middle, not only with the meaning of leading the way, but also with the feeling of surveillance, mainly because they were afraid that they would run away if they took the money.

Outside the Temple of the Holy Spirit is an open space similar to a venue, and many tables, chairs and banquet utensils can be seen that have not been moved, but the sharp-eyed An Yi pointed to see a ribbon-like blood stain on the back of the two chairs on the main seat, combined with what the bar owner said, the emperor's cousin was assassinated at his wedding, and it is estimated that this is her blood.

The murder weapon was a short blade with an extremely sharp edge, which clearly cut through the major arteries, and the remaining blood stains were thrown onto the wall behind.

This mark really looks like a thunderous hand, and An Yizhi has never seen a player faster than him. Isn't he already out of the Dark Brotherhood? How can you still take this kind of assassination dirty work?

This little thought turned around in his mind twice and then he forgot about it, so let's focus on what is in front of him.

The temple of the Holy Spirit has long been empty, and the people who usually prayed sincerely are now in the city to hype the bad news of the imminent resurrection of the Queen of Wolfheart, and public opinion cannot be controlled at all.

Instead, there were thirty heavily armed soldiers, who stood guard as if they were facing a great enemy, and where it led to the basement.

No one likes the undead, they're synonymous with fear and scourges, but players are a bit aggressive compared to NPCs that only have one life.

An Yi hung up the defensive spell with his fingers, and with a move of the battering ram directly lifted the wooden door, accompanied by the flying sawdust that appeared at the same time, as well as the cold, rotten smell.

"The negative energy level down here is pretty high"

Hela looked at it and whispered:

"Master, are you really going to fight that necromancer? I reckon she's not inferior to the average lich. ”

If he could, An Yizhi wouldn't want to......

The true strength of the Wolfheart Queen is definitely stronger than that of ordinary lichs, and it sounds like the two of them basically belong to the kind of meat buns that fight dogs and have no return.

But after all, it's just a game, and even if it's a difficult copy, the system won't release a mission that can't be completed.

Therefore, An Yizhi deduced that the current strength of the Queen of Wolf Heart should be in a state of being able to fight, it may be a weak period when she has just been resurrected, or it may be that she has not been fully resurrected.

In fact, this is also forcing the player to the main quest, in this case, of course, you can continue to do the side quest first to maximize the benefits, but it is likely that when you come back from the side quest, Portmar is already too strong to defeat.

That's why it's best not to die in a difficult dungeon, An Yizhi has been killed several times by this setup of the system.

As is customary, the brave invincible is at the forefront, resisting all dangers with his anti-gymnastic armor.

The words 'warrior goes first' have two meanings in the adventure, one is that the warrior is in the front row, and the other is the order of death.

If the DPS mage and healing nurse are hung up first in a team, but the warrior is alive, it means that the warrior is quite unqualified as a meat shield.

Both of them are veterans, and they have cooperated more than once or twice, maintaining a cautious formation and slowly walking deeper.

The basement beneath the Temple of the Holy Spirit served primarily as a storehouse, as well as a bedroom for some servants.

So the lighting didn't have to worry about An's fingers, a few dim candles and candlesticks were placed in the corners, although not bright enough, but they could still see.

There are traces of panic everywhere, which shows how anxious the people here are when they escape.

"Master, the level of negative energy is getting higher and higher."

As they went deeper into the basement, Hela reminded.

Negative energy is like a signpost, it accurately points out the destination to the two of them.

According to the book "The Legend of the Queen of Wolfheart", when the army of Queen Wolfheart's brothers came to the city, Queen Wolfheart herself hid in the bunker with the only remaining undead legion, and resisted for a month before dying alone.

After the war, the entrance was sealed with bluestone slabs and bricks, and a thick metal fence gate was used near the original entrance, as if to completely forget the terrifying queen.

But now in front of the two players is a deep hole, where the stone bricks that were originally used to seal the fence appear to have been smashed open from the inside, and the finger-thick metal fence gate is still a little debris still hanging on the ground.

The surging negative energy is like a fountain in the eyes of the brave invincible and Hela, such an obvious guidance, there is really a ghost if you can't find it.

"Dancing Light Technique!"

They slowly approached, there was no light here, and An Yizhi raised a few balls of light to explore the way.

It seems that there is no danger for the time being.

The two of them made their way down a dark passage that was not too narrow, and finally came to a place with a slight light.

It can be seen that there are still many man-made traces here, and the time is not too long, it is estimated that it should be more than 100 years old.

Directly opposite the entrance of the passage is a mural that looks like a stone monument.

It is painted with a female character wearing a wolf skin and a wolf helmet, even if the simple craftsmanship of the mural carving cannot completely restore her true appearance, but from those few brushstrokes, it can be seen that the queen of the wolfheart was a big beauty when she was young.

Around her were carved several people in robes, except that their faces were more like skeletal faces than living people.

This must be the territory of the Queen of the Wolfheart.
