Chapter 292: The Lich Who Gathers Stories
"The haunted woman!"
Charles couldn't help but cover his face and sigh in his heart.
Night Shine.
Eternal lover, night shine.
This woman turned out to be a believer in Yeyao, and her status was not low, otherwise she would not be qualified to chisel a heart-shaped hole in her right palm. This was undoubtedly Yeyao's reward for her loyal followers.
The magic painting mission made Yeyao set his sights on Charles, but when such a beautiful lady noticed them, Charles was not happy at all.
In Charr's view, any god, whether evil or good, or neutral, has a crush on a creature, then that creature will have bad luck.
The evil god will drive his fancier to do things.
The good gods will also chant the slogan of upholding justice and upholding justice, and let his chosen ones fight against the darkness.
As for the neutral gods, of course, they also have various intentions to gather creatures that they think are worth using, and use them as pawns to help them achieve their goals.
Therefore, being favored by any god is not a good thing for the Charles today, because he is not qualified to intervene in the war of the gods and the disputes between the churches. After all, he didn't even reach level 20 now.
When he was still in the Temple of Nightshine, Charles knew that the goddess favored him, and even sent him an invitation to be the "chosen one".
What is a "voter"?
As if a believer in any deity were given a similar invitation, I am afraid that the believer would weep bitterly and swear to give his soul. But at that time, Charles refused Night Yao. At that time, even the brainless dragonborn paladin Balasa. They all didn't understand what he was doing.
Now, however, even with the same invitation in front of them, Charles would still make the same choice.
First of all, it is not easy for clergy to convert.
Then there is the God of faith. Whether the gods are strong or not. It will inevitably affect the actions of his followers in the material world. If he was already a believer in Night Shine before, he would definitely not dare to risk angering Bane, occupy the identity of the dark priest Ron, and meddle in the main plot of the Cormier Kingdom. You must know that Ogmar, the god of knowledge, can ignore Bane, but only the [weak divine power] of Ye Yao is not as dignified as their subordinate gods in front of the powerful main gods.
Finally, it's Charles' consideration of himself.
He had already decided on an advanced route in the near future. And the summons of the God of Knowledge, and the promise of Patriarch Omar, brought him very close to that ideal advanced profession.
In fact, godless priests are also suitable for that advanced class. It's just that without the support of God's father, the path of a godless pastor will be very difficult.
"I am Ingrid, the Holy Presence Charles, the First Messenger of the Eternal Love, Nightly Glory."
Long platinum-white hair draped over the shoulders. The Lich also wears a thick travel attire. Still holding his right palm high, he said with a reverent expression: "Please let Ingrid offer sincere greetings, and may you have good luck." ”
As she spoke, the Lich's raised right hand was slowly lowered, pressed against her chest, and then she leaned down and gave Charr an extremely standard greeting salute.
Charles was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged away, and then reluctantly lifted the disguise of the [Musk's shadow brooch]. Restore to its original appearance.
Just kidding, judging from the two tricks of easily solving Durroux from the front. The level of this female envoy is only afraid that it has reached a level that he cannot understand.
Time stops.
Soul Suppression.
Saying the name of any spell can scare the hearts out of a bunch of spellcasters. Ingrid, on the other hand, used it very easily, and without a trace of silence, and Durroux had no chance of resisting.
I couldn't help but stare at the ruby in the left hand of the female envoy. Poor Duru was imprisoned in this way, inside must be a piece of extradimensional space, and in the hands of Ingrid, Duru's fate can be said to be many times worse than death.
"Your Excellency, please come with me."
After Ingrid finished the salute, she very politely invited Charles into a mysterious room.
I saw her raise her right hand and gently brush it through the void in front of her, and a strange magic door that seemed to fluctuate on the surface of the water appeared in the temple of Asharond.
The envoy stood by the door and waited for Charles, and motioned for Charles to go in with her beautiful ice-blue eyes.
Stepping through the door, the room is full of jewels.
This is obviously a storage room dedicated to storing jewelry, with a space of more than 20 square meters, neatly placed many shelves and wall cabinets, and on top of it are a dazzling array of gems of different colors and shapes.
Ingrid held the bright ruby in her hand, put it in a gold treasure chest, did not close the lid of the box, turned to the stunned priest, and smiled: "These are my collections. ”
Charles swallowed his saliva once.
"It's all imprisoned gems?" Charles glanced away, he didn't dare to count how many gems there were here, if each gem was imprisoned, it would be terrible if there was a strong man like Duru.
"In fact, there are not many human powerhouses in this, and there are even fewer demon believers with stories like Du Lu." Ingrid seemed to speak of her interest, and curled the corners of her mouth and said, "There are too many creatures in the gem, there are angels, there are real demons, and there are strange beasts in the sea of stars...... Do you think they are like amber that carries history? But amber is dead, these soul gems are alive......"
"Every creature in the gem has its own story, and I like to listen to living things tell stories, but I don't like to go to the corpse to find the story myself."
When Ingrid talked about gems, her whole person was refreshed, not at all like her previous cold and lifeless appearance. She held out her ice-blue fingernails, pointed to a jet-black gem that was prominently placed, and said, "Do you know about the water fairies?" This gem was made a thousand years ago when I was just transformed into a lich and subdued a female water elf who was full of hatred. ”
"Water goblins, natural creatures so beautiful that words can't describe them, they have delicate emotions and a deadly allure that humans can't refuse...... The water elf fell in love with a human druid who swore to protect nature, but later the druid not only betrayed the Church of Nature and Merrikai, but also destroyed the grove where the water elves lived...... People who love each other turn against each other. What an interesting story, I helped the water goblin kill her lover, and she willingly had my soul casting. Forever imprisoned in the jewel......"
After saying that, the lich paused and chuckled nervously, "Actually, I prefer the water elves who are willing to offer their own collections...... This is true for most of my collections. But that demon believer is different, he has offended you, your Excellency, you are the chosen one of Yeyao, offending you is like provoking Yeyao. Unforgivable! ”
"No, no, no, in the lower districts, a mortal, an offense is an offense. How can it be compared to the offending noble lady Yeyao? Charles hurriedly waved his hand.
He didn't really want to hear the story of the gems from the lich.
The more I listen to it, the creepi it becomes.
Each gem in the storage room seems to hide a pair of resentful eyes. He only cared about the ruby that imprisoned Duru. Because Duru had a second 'Stone of Ion' on him.
"Allow me to show you around this extradimensional mansion." Ingrid leaned over again.
In addition to the 'Stone of Ion', Charles was also worried about the situation outside, so he shook his head and politely refused, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency. My partner is still fighting outside. I had to go check it out. ”
"Oh, that little druid?"
Ingrid raised an eyebrow and waved her hand to summon the magic door, "Please." ”
Before going out, carefully activate the holy relics and restore the appearance of the dark priest 'Ron'.
As he left, Charles couldn't help but look back at the pitch-black world of another dimension. This is the alien dwelling created by the high-level spells of the Seven Rings, and many players dream of this spell, but the Seven Rings are still far away. If you are not a level 30 hero, you will not be able to unlock the seventh layer of the magic net.
The battle in the underground temple doesn't know when it will end. There was a dead silence all around. As soon as he left the door, Charles was met with the stinging, suspicious gaze of Alyssa the Blighter. She asked in a deep voice, "What about the demon believer?" ”
"Ask her." Charles shrugged and looked at Ingrid.
"She'......"
Alyssa turned to look at the lich, her face stiffened, and her gray-white pupils, which had always been indifferent, constricted, revealing an irrepressible look of panic.
"Biography, Legend!" She spat out two words with difficulty, breaking the realm nouns that Charles didn't dare to say.
"Hello Miss Beauty, I'm Ingrid. From now on, I will swear to the safety of Lord Charles, and you can consider me his retinue. The lich nodded.
Not only was Alyssa's face shocked, but Charles's heart was beating out of her throat with fear.
"Followers?" The charr was incredulous. Legendary followers are only afraid that even the gods dare not fantasize easily, after all, after reaching level 40 and touching the mystery of the legend, the vast majority of legends will naturally turn into pan-believers, preferring to believe in their own power and use their own power rather than borrowing the power of the gods.
Ingrid is special, her transformation into a lich should be facilitated by Nightshine, and it can be said that this oracle is a henchman cultivated by Nightshine.
"Yes, I will follow him until he agrees to Lady Yeyao's invitation." Ingrid said lightly.
"Who the hell are you?"
This time, Alyssa couldn't be calm. She knew Ye Yao, and she also knew what a god's invitation meant, so at this time, she stared at Charles in an almost violent tone and asked, "You must reveal your identity before we can cooperate!"
"No, on the contrary, once I reveal my identity, the cooperation cannot continue." Charles shook his head in refusal, not letting go.
"I agree with Lord Charles, Miss Elisa, because when you know the identity of Lord Charles, you will surely find the world absurd and ridiculous...... But that's how interesting the story is. "Ingrid is rightfully on Charles' side.
"Is your real name Charles?" Alyssa was unwilling, but with a suspected legend by her side, she had no choice but to give up.
"I think the conditions of the portal have been met......"
Charles pointed to the circular circle in front of the statue of the red dragon, and before he knew it, the circle was already overflowing with rainbow light, instead of the red rays it had been at the beginning.
Alyssa walked towards the portal without saying a word.
"Please allow me to come along." Ingrid saluted Charles, who could only smile wryly.
In the face of such polite words from a legend, if he refuses again, he will be stunned and ignorant of current affairs. Who knows if the lich, with his changeable temperament, will get angry when he refuses.
It can be said that the charr simply has no room to refuse. (To be continued......)
