Chapter 656: Eccentric Priest
Lopwen's cemetery is about a thirty-minute drive from the city, located on a hillside about thirty degrees, and rows of tombstones and a faint smell of negative energy can be seen in the distance.
The four of them rented a carriage and pretended to be leveling in the city and went to the leveling point near the cemetery.
The game time is exactly during the day, and there are a lot of players who go out to level up at this time, and they are not conspicuous in the mix.
Pretending to beat some mobs near the city of Lopven, the four of them slowly made a small circle, went around to the back of the cemetery, and sneaked in from there.
After all, it was just a cemetery, and it was not a critical place, there was only a simple fence with an iron fence nearby, and it was in tatters eroded by time, and the four of them casually searched and found a gap enough for them to enter.
Because it is entered from the rear of the cemetery, the first thing that comes into view is the entrance to the dungeon, which is quite ornate.
The floors and stone doors are all made of expensive white marble and decorated with rows of carved knightly statues, somewhat similar to the round columns and raised arches of Greek architecture.
In front of the knight's statue, there is also a large stone tablet that is five meters high and more than two meters wide, which is densely engraved with small characters, which roughly writes the exploits of the first city lord of Luopwen.
Such a grand burial chamber was not for the common people, they could only use the outermost tomb of the cemetery, close to the burial chamber for the nobles, and they could see stone tablets or stone carvings of different shapes reflecting the merits of the master during his lifetime.
And this grand burial chamber is naturally only qualified to be used by the city lord of Luo Puwen.
"Master, there seems to be something wrong with that stele."
Hela reminded, then turned on Arcane Vision to take a closer look.
"There is a lot of positive energy gathered on it, which should be specially designed to purify the negative energy inside the tomb."
"Is it a setting to prevent Lopwen's bloodline from becoming an undead?"
"That's right."
It is well known that corpses are very susceptible to negative energy infection and become undead, so the builders of the tomb have created such a thing that can collect positive energy from the air and sunlight and use it to purify the tomb on a regular basis.
I have to say that powerful people, even if they die, are not the same as ordinary people......
With a sigh, An Yizhi turned around and asked:
"Apple, is the door open?"
The door of the tomb is locked with a special lock, but fortunately, Apple Tea knows how to pick locks, and at this time he is pouting his ass and is busy working, in his words, this lock is a bit interesting, and it takes some effort to open it.
"OK, that's it."
Hearing a soft click, the stone tomb door opened a gap, and Apple Tea proudly patted the tool on his waist:
"If I didn't have these things, I'm afraid I'll have to blast open, don't worry, I didn't destroy the structure of the lock, it's exactly the same as before."
It feels like Appletea is becoming more and more like an indispensable thief in adventure, and I heard that he will also disarm the trap.
At this time, the pigeon, which had been white and red-eyed, landed beside everyone and transformed into a fruit hard candy:
"Someone came, and I saw a carriage parked in front of the cemetery."
When everyone heard this, they quickly found bunkers and hid, according to the information, there were only two grave guards in the cemetery, and eighty percent of them were priests of a certain temple who came running.
An Yizhi quietly poked his head out from behind the stone tablet, and he saw three people talking at the entrance of the cemetery, two of them were the grave keepers of the cemetery, and the other was ......
It's supposed to be the pastor of Waukin, yes.
Usually a priest dresses in relation to the deity he believes in, but most priests wear a type of dress that shows the solemnity of their boss, and occasionally wears or uses some valuable utensils to highlight this.
There is only one priest who wears gold and silver like an upstart, and he wants the whole world to know that 'Lao Tzu is rich', and even the magic is to use precious gems to smash people.
This deity, of course, is Waukin, the goddess of wealth.
Let's put it this way, the emblem of Loshanda is a rising sun, and the emblem of Tyr is based on a blue shield with a warhammer and scales on it.
And the Holy Emblem of Waukin...... It's very simple and crude, it's money!
What a goddess in the eyes of money......
So compared to other pastors who need to be carefully identified to determine which god it is, the pastor of Waujin can be recognized from a long distance, and there is no second and no other branch of the nouveau riche dressed as a nouveau riche.
It seems that Ann pointed out that they had arrived at a good time, just in time for the priest of Wokin to check on the cemetery.
Glancing at his teammates, everyone hurried into the tomb and closed the door.
They didn't have time to wait for Wolkin's priest to leave, and if they ran into it in the tomb, it would be a big deal to kill him, and he was only one anyway.
The tomb is wider than expected, and it may have something to do with the stone tablet outside, everyone didn't see any traces of undead creatures, not even much trace of negative energy, except for a faint musty smell, there was no discomfort.
It's a good thing that the tomb is well ventilated, at least people don't have to put up with the stench of corpses.
Rows of lamp oil could be seen on both sides of the wall, but instead of lighting them up, the priest was likely to run in, but let Ann hold the ball of light and slowly walk towards the depths of the tomb.
In terms of the experience of going down to the tomb, An Yizhi can be regarded as rich, whether it is the tomb of Skeletron or the underground palace of Vaolek, he has been there, and he has gained a lot.
It's just that compared to the first two, Luo Puwen's city lord is obviously not popular to use funeral goods, or their funeral goods are ordinary food, drinks and other miscellaneous items, at most there is a favorite weapon in life, but these things have been wiped out in time, and the only sword found is also an ordinary-level broken product.
Thanks to the fact that the royal family of Lopwen does not have the habit of accompanying burial goods, otherwise with the murderous looting ability of the players, this tomb does not know what to be made of Hoho.
There are no funeral goods, but there are a lot of traps that should be, but because of Appletea, a character who is very good at this, many traps can be quietly lifted, or simply bypassed. It's really a lot of savings.
Another good news is that the tomb was not built in the form of a labyrinth, and the structure was simple.
The entrance is a long corridor, and in the empty seats on either side lie the coffins of knights loyal to the city lord, and in the inside, the coffin is specially prepared for the royal family of Lopwen.
It is a concave hall, the area is very large, the wall facing the door is also a stone tablet, the text on it is exactly the same as the one outside the tomb, on both sides of the stone tablet there are some exquisite stone coffins, which should be the resting place of the city lords of the past dynasties.
The only strange thing is that everyone didn't see the sarcophagus of the first generation of city lords, according to the standard routine, it should be placed in the center of the tomb to reflect authority.
However, this doubt is not important, what makes An Yizhi feel unclear is that the tomb is very ordinary, ordinary are a bit incredible, and they have not seen or found any trace of powerful undead creatures along the way, not even the slightest trace.
Am I guessing wrong?
After all, the fact that Lopwen's graveyard was occupied by a powerful undead creature was just an assumption of his own, and it was normal for him to pounce on the air.
The four of them cautiously walked around the tomb twice, during which they exhausted their detection methods, including Hela's arcane vision, but did not find anything unusual.
"Brother An, someone has come in, it should be the pastor of Wokin."
Appletea whispered, and he placed a magic alarm by the door of the tomb to alert him whenever someone came in.
"Let's hide and observe the situation first."
I couldn't find any problems, and maybe the priests who specialize in dealing with the undead might find something.
beckoned the four of them to hide in the shadows of the tomb, reached out to extinguish the effect of the Dancing Light Technique, and took out the manuscript of Mi Sizhuo's prophecy, and used a 'Concealment Method' to use the shadows to surround them firmly. Finally, Ann released another arcane eye and placed it in the corner above the tomb, like a surveillance camera, so that he could observe Pastor Workin's every move.
After making complete preparations, it wasn't long before he saw the priest of Waujin slowly walking into the tomb through the arcane eyes.
He looked left and right, as if looking for anyone nearby.
Priests are sensitive to sensibility, especially the sworn enemies of the gods they believe in.
Fortunately, the 'Hidden Crash Method' is not vegetarian, as long as there is no bright light, shadows are the best disguise.
It is indeed a bit strange to say, Ann pointed out that they came in without lighting the lamp to conceal it, but the priest of Waukin walked in and still did not light the lamp.
The priest nodded imperceptibly, he didn't notice that there were four players hiding nearby, and walked to the stone tablet facing the door of the tomb with confidence.
Is there a problem with that stele?
Looking at the pastor's actions, An Yizhi wondered in his heart.
Time was of the essence, and he did not investigate the stele in too much detail.
Then he saw the priest of Waujin take out an apple-sized object from his dimensional pocket and whispered a spell, the apple-sized thing was restored to its original state, it should be an item that was conveniently stored with a shrinking charm.
This is not unusual, many of the divine spells mastered by the priests overlapped with the spells of the mages, but the restoration of the size of the things was very rare.
It was a head, the head that originally belonged to a troll.
The troll's head was cut off with a sharp weapon, and was presumably preserved with some kind of spell on it, so that the troll's head did not decompose. Even under the effect of the spell, the troll seemed to be alive, and Ann Yizhi saw its eyelids tremble and its eyes were full of pain.
Preserve the organs, which is a necromantic spell.
Originally, I wanted to see what Workin's priest was doing when he came in, but he didn't expect to see this scene, and Ann Yizhi became interested in a priest who could cast necromantic spells.
Then, the priest removed the mace from his waist and placed the troll's head in front of the stele, ignoring its pleading look, slamming it down one hammer after another. Until the flesh and blood of the smashed skull are blurred, and the gray brains are spilled out.
This scene is really a bit disgusting, and the system is intimately marked with a mosaic.
But the next scene is not disgusting......
