Chapter 455: The Puzzle and the Sorrow of the Holy Warrior

Henry wasn't one of those people who had no self-control after all, and it only took a few minutes for him to regain his former composure, and his silver eyes flashed with wisdom again. He smiled at his teammates, who were a little worried: "Don't worry, I'm very conscious and won't delay the mission because of other things." ”

"I'm much more relieved to say that. You must know that even if you are the leader of the team now, and at the same time you are the strongest person in the team, if something goes wrong, the investigation may not be able to continue. After Kaidong said this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew very well that the reason why the temple and the knights were willing to pay such a big price was because they had taken a fancy to the powerful power of the legendary spellcaster. As long as there are no big accidents, with the diversity of magic, it is enough to cope with all kinds of dangers that will appear at any time.

"Now let me see what's going on here." With that, Henry stepped up the stairs alone and stood at the point where the rotunda broke.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the sky, followed by a deep voice shouting, "The bridge has broken and ended in death, calling its name, calling out the road that passes, what is the bridge?" ”

Obviously, this is a puzzle or a code, and only those who know the answer can understand it, otherwise various punishments will turn everyone who tries to crack it into a corpse. Similar situations are common in the ruins of the Faren Continent, and it is very important to test the knowledge and observation of adventurers, and many people who don't know how to figure it out are not willing to take this risk at all.

But it wasn't a problem at all for Henry, as someone who had played the entire game dozens of times, it was simply too easy. Without even thinking about it, he replied, "Every living thing goes through the process of going from birth to death. So since death is the end. Then life is my answer. ”

"Life is a bridge that ends in death. Although the responsibility may drag it out. You've said the bridge, but it's not enough. You are not alone on the bridge, shouting its name and summoning the way through. It is with you, you can only move forward through it, but it will eventually leave, who is walking with you? The voice from the sky asked again.

Henry smiled and continued to answer: "Everyone has to go through countless years from birth to death, and it follows him like a shadow. But in the end, it will take away a qiē, so time is my answer. ”

Perhaps the ritual reached its climax, and the voices in the sky suddenly began to become impassioned. "Time is with you, but it is also constantly leaving. Time is unforgiving, and one day you will die completely. However, the bridge is not yet stable, and the end point is still changing. Call out its name, call out the road, choose his toughest step on the bridge. ”

"A qiē path is all about starting with a choice, and no one can make a choice for another person, so this is the current step. It's all my own decision, my choice. Henry's eyes showed a determined gaze as he spoke.

He could feel it. This is no ordinary puzzle, but a test of one's faith. If you can't strengthen your faith, then in the end, the bridge you will be formed will be broken at the slightest touch.

"This current step could be your first step or your last. The other two are abstract, only this step is your own, but responsibility may force you to choose. The way forward has been made, welcome to the Guardians, and greater responsibilities await you. After saying that, everyone heard the sound of stones rubbing, and then suddenly a stone bridge suddenly appeared in the middle of the building that had been divided in two, and countless strange symbols were carved on it.

Kaidong touched his gray hair and said with a wry smile: "Life and death, time and responsibility, this is really a heavy topic. I suddenly felt a little old, and maybe it would be a good idea to retire after this mission. ”

Sally Love was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Why?" I also want to learn more from you to ensure that you will not be tempted by evil on your future path. ”

As a novice, what she needs most now is the teaching from her seniors, otherwise she may not know if she is framed. After all, Paradise Hill is a place that advocates order and kindness, and the Selly Leph who grew up there has never seen the sinister nature of the human heart, and if it weren't for the fact that the holy warriors were born with a sense of evil, I am afraid that such a pure and beautiful girl would have been poured with some magic potions and other things and sold to those who have special hobbies.

Don't think that no one will dare to do it under the favor of the god of justice, in the Faeron Continent, those evil beings with great power even dare to calculate the gods themselves, let alone a holy warrior of about ten levels. They would love to see young paladin maidens forcibly defiled and destroyed, then led to the collapse of their faith and their depravity, and finally to become dark guardians serving evil gods.

Kaidong sighed slightly, touched the girl's long black hair comfortingly, and sighed, "Child, I have served the Knights for more than thirty years, and I have fulfilled my responsibilities as a holy warrior. Due to my busy schedule, I rarely spend time at home with my wife and children, and I don't even have time to eat together, so I plan to spend the rest of my time doing my duty as a husband and father. ”

After hearing this, Henry suddenly felt that the paladins were really pitiful, and it was even more pitiful to be their family. Not only do you have to worry about it for a long time, but you also have to endure often not going home all year round. This kind of cruel life is maintained in this world with true gods, and it is the derailment that the earth should have derailed a long time ago, and the remarriage that should have been remarried.

I really don't know how many ignorant girls have been deceived by the love stories of the bards who preach the holy warriors, who have spent all their good youth on these elm pimples, and in the end not only do they not get the legendary romantic love, but I am afraid that they will have little time alone with their husbands in their lives.

Perhaps this is the reason why when Kaidon learns that his wife is cheating, although he is extremely angry, he does not act out of the ordinary. He also knew that he owed the whole family too much, and he was not in a position to blame anyone.

It can be said that every Paladin family is respectable, from husband to wife to children, they are silently dedicating their lives, and for this reason they are even willing to live in an extremely unhealthy environment all the time, in today's words, they are all lacking in family affection, which can easily cause psychological depression. This is probably one of the main reasons for the fall of the holy warriors, after all, most humans long for a complete family, and once an accident occurs, it will inevitably leave a strict psychological wound.

(During Neverwinter Nights, Erebeth was also devastated by the death of her fiancé, and was finally lured by the evil god to become a dark guardian.) This shows how important family and loved ones are to the Paladin, and it can be said that it is the last haven for the soul. If something happens to this haven, they may simply turn around and take revenge on the gods they once worshipped. )

"Okay, don't bother with the retirement of my old man. Let's hurry up and reach the altar in front of us to see what the legendary artifact looks like. With that, Kaidon was the first to cross the stone bridge with the Holy Avenger in his hand and walked towards the tunnel ahead. This mission may well be the last for him, so it's absolutely important to give it his all to bring his career to a successful conclusion.

As soon as they crossed the circular building in the middle, they hadn't gone far before they spotted the enemy, and a small team of three huge adult Eye Demons and two much smaller Gaussian Eye Demons were slowly moving along the passage, but fortunately they were not discovered, otherwise after a round of demon firing lines, I am afraid that after a round of demon firing lines, except for Henry and Ammon the Son of God, the rest of the people would be incapacitated even if they were not killed.

"How is that possible?! How did these Eye Demons get through the bridge behind Guò! Sheena asked, lowering her voice. She couldn't believe that these Eye Demons could force their way through that terrifying nick, it was incredible.

Henry smiled slightly and explained in a low voice, "It's very simple, each eye demon can form a fixed anti-magic stance around his body, and generally speaking, as long as it is not a directional spell, it can be forcibly repelled through it. The power of the notch behind us is great, but it's essentially magical energy, so it's normal for these guys to be able to get through guò. ”

Hina nodded suddenly, and then immediately asked: "Then what should we do now, secretly follow or ......" Speaking of this, she raised her hand and made a throat-slitting motion,

"Of course you have to kill, and you can't let any of them go. Blind Eye must not be allowed to obtain any information until both halves of the artifact are in his hands. As he spoke, Henry drew the long knife that hung from his waist. For this artifact, he must die, and he will never allow anything to go wrong. After all, the next step is to infiltrate the lair of the Eye Demon, and if the news leaks, it is likely to fall into a terrible siege.

"Ammon, you're in charge of the little Gauss-eyed demon on the left, and Selilev you're in charge of the one on the right. As for the middle three adult Eye Demons, Kaidon and Sheena each choose one, and I'll solve the final one. As for Yao, you should be ready to support at any time. "Henry calmly assigned combat missions to everyone, which was his responsibility as a leader and mage.

In order to achieve the lethal effect of one hit, everyone drank a bottle of "invisibility potion", and then began to quietly approach the target. They will face one of the most terrifying creatures in the Faren Continent, and even just looking at them will produce a series of negative states such as "shock", "sluggishness", "petrification", "paralysis", "immobilization", "control" and so on.

Almost all adventurers know that the best way to encounter such a monster is to sneak up on it from behind. Once the weapon severes the nerves attached to the main eye, the Eye Demon will not be able to fire those terrifying magic rays. Of course, in addition to their eyes, their large mouths full of fangs also need to be extra careful if they are bitten...... Definitely much stricter than most carnivores. (To be continued......)
