The people of Holy Glory waited a moment and then camped nearby to rest.
When Roger opened the lid of the pot, all the ingredients were obtained from another world. The pot of soup gave off a rich and special aroma, and Doris couldn't help but lead the team.
Rogge accepted everyone who came and took the lead in serving a bowl to each of them.
They are all people with aptitude for the light element, so they are the best candidates for the poison test.
Although the ingredients themselves are confirmed to be non-toxic, what if they are poisonous after being cooked for a period of time?
Doris thanked her repeatedly, took a sip from the bowl, and narrowed her eyes happily.
The temperature on this plateau is relatively low, and it is already night. The cold wind with a little dust blows on people, which is very uncomfortable.
It is a real pleasure to warm yourself with a bowl of freshly cooked soup.
After each person had a bowl of soup, the rest of the pot was given to Ofina, all of which belonged to her.
With the physique of a junior warrior, the girl picked up the cauldron, which was almost enough for her to bathe in. She walked steadily and drank for a minute.
"Hiccup!" Ofina raised her head and let out a loud burp. Either she was full, or she simply had air in her stomach.
The members of the two adventure groups had never seen this battle before, and they all looked at the girl in amazement as she started fighting with the food again.
Doris didn't even swallow a morsel of the soup in her mouth, her beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at Ophina even more brightly.
She sat down next to Ofina with a bowl in hand. Before she could speak, the girl gave her a hungry look.
"The soup is all mine. Just one bowl is enough for you." Ofina warned.
Doris quickly put down the bowl. She was not the one who served soup. She smiled and said, "Sister, you are also a magician of light. How could such a coincidence happen?"
Ofina rolled her eyes. This not-so-old sister's pick-up skills were not as good as those of idiot Rick.
"You have something to say." Ofina said calmly.
"Then I'll tell you the truth." Doris cleared her throat and put on a standard smile, "Sister, join us in the Divine Glory! With your strength, you can be a priest of radiance and enjoy the life second only to the God of Light. Choose and be treated like a high priest!"
Ofina's mouth was busy, so she shook a finger to refuse.
Doris did not pay attention and continued: "Sister, believe me, for all those who have the grace of light, the divine light must be their best destination, and the God of Light will bless you!"
Ofina swallowed what was in her mouth, wiped her greasy mouth, and took the time to reply: "I won't go, my brother can't live without me."
"That's easy to say. The priest of radiance has the right to have two guards. They don't need to have the light element suitability."
After hearing this, Ofina paused while grabbing the barbecue, stared into Doris's eyes and said, "He is my brother, not my bodyguard! Go away before I hate you!"
Doris' smile froze on her face, as if she couldn't figure out why the girl refused her invitation.
She wasn't angry. After all, she was the one poaching people. If others didn't agree, there was nothing they could do about it.
"May the God of Light bless you." Doris left, but her eyes when looking at Ofina were still... fiery, thinking that she would never give up and come back.
Naturally, Rogge would not ignore Doris's chat with Ophina. There happened to be someone around him who could ask, and that was fellow student An An who volunteered to help him.
An An temporarily regained her vitality. After all, people have to do something to forget their sorrow.
"An'an, do you know about the Holy Glory Adventure Group?"
"Of course, doesn't Senior Rogge know? That's a Sunshine-level adventure group! There are only nine Sunshine-level groups in the entire world."
"I do know that, but that's all."
An An smiled and said: "Senior is just busy saving the empire, so it's normal to not know anything about the adventure group. If you want to know anything, you can ask An An. Although I am only an intermediate spear dancer, these messy things I know best."
"Then I have to ask, An'an, what's the status of the priest of divine glory in the adventure group?"
"Priest, the one with a very high status, the 'Blessing of Light' Doris, is a priest of radiance."
"In the Holy Glory Adventure Group, the one with the highest status is the God of Light. According to what their gods say, the God of Light is the person chosen by the God of Light. He is here to lead all those who have the grace of light."
"The current God of Light is Julius, the 'Divine Light'."
"Oh, the so-called grace of having light actually means having the adaptability of the light element."
"Then, there are high priests under the God of Light. There are three in total. It is said that they are all great magisters of light."
"Next are the priests. I don't know exactly how many priests there are in Holy Glory, but they are all king-level experts."
"Below the priests are the divine attendants, below the divine attendants are the attendants, and below the attendants are the teachers. The lowest level is the trainee teacher."
Roger shook his spoon and touched his chin and said, "It sounds a bit like a church organization."
"That's right!" An An nodded repeatedly, "They do have a church, and they believe in the God of Light, but they are all registered as adventurers."
"Establishing an adventure group is indeed much more convenient in terms of activities." Rogge said to himself, "So An'an, is the Holy Glory Adventure Group really as just as it appears?"
"Yes, other big groups will have misdeeds to some extent, even our group is no exception, but only the Holy Glory is as clean as a piece of white paper."
Rogge was silent for a few seconds and commented: "It's not easy."
What the divine radiance is like has little to do with Rogge. Anyway, Ofina will never leave him.
The delicious soup actually has a hidden effect, which is appetizing.
Rogge had to work overtime for a while and provide extra meals for everyone. He was tired but not tired. He just wanted to take advantage of the break to explore the location of the Demon Summoning Pillar and had to give up.
Nothing happened all night.
The next day, everyone packed their things early and planned to go to the Demon Summoning Pillar to see the situation and, if possible, destroy it.
Before departure, Doris found Rogge.
The smile of this holy and glorious priest was still gentle and kind, just like Melifa's smile when she saw them before.
"Captain Rogge." Doris crossed her hands on her chest, covered her shoulders with her palms, and bowed slightly, "I heard that your group's goal is to explore that filthy land. Can we go with you?"
"Okay." Rogge nodded in agreement.
The reputation of Holy Glory is excellent, and half of this team are light magicians, so the probability of being a demon is very low.
On the contrary, they are very sensitive to the curses and control skills of strange demons. The leader "Blessing of Light" Doris is a light mage at the same level as Orfina. In addition to her, she also has a king-level sword. Scholars are powerful and can help.
"You have such an outstanding light magician in your team. You must already know that there is a wide-area curse in the barrier, right?"
"Yes."
"This curse can amplify people's emotions, especially negative emotions. Please always be vigilant."
"Thank you for reminding."
"The Filthy Land was discovered by the Sky Knight Adventure Group. Let them take us there. My team is ready."
"Let's set off now." Rogge paused and asked, "Captain Doris, was there anything unusual about the people in the camp yesterday?"
"Abnormality?" Doris smiled, "Are you asking about the members of the Sky Knight Adventure Group? They have no abnormalities, and the curse has been removed. Isn't it the work of the light magician in your team?"
"I know, thank you. Let's go."
The team set off, and Rogge looked back.
The bones Ophina threw out last night have disappeared.
…
I walked northwest for more than ten kilometers along the rift valley where the pothole was located, collecting the bodies of the dead people of the Sky Knight team along the way.
Everyone came to an area covered by orange vegetation, which the Sky Knights called mangroves.
The leaves of the mangrove are large, and the fruits are also large. When ripe, they exude a scent of mixed peaches and apples.
Rogge saw some small animals eating the fruits, and larger animals were eyeing these small animals.
"It's strange, this place was lifeless yesterday, but now there are so many creatures." An An said to himself.
"It's quite normal, because the giant scorpion you eliminated should be the most powerful creature in this area. After it died, other creatures came out without any deterrent." Rogge explained.
"I see, senior knows so much." An An looked at Rogge with full eyes, admiration and admiration written all over her face.
Ofina cautiously inserted herself between the two of them, hugged Rogge's arm and beat An'an, "An'an, your brother is mine, don't have any bad intentions. I saved you, you have to listen to me. .”
"I know." An An stuck out her tongue, seemingly not listening at all.
"An'an, where is the giant scorpion?"
"It's right inside this mangrove tree."
"Where's that weird pillar?"
"I don't know, Emma died before she could say anything." An An's heart became heavy again when she mentioned her dead teammates, "But it must be around here."
"Yeah. Tell your companions to get ready and we'll go in and take a look."
"OK."
Based on Rogge's understanding of the Demon Summoning Pillar, there will be guardian monsters near it, and the giant scorpion is likely to be the guardian monster.
Therefore, what An An said about the Demon Summoning Pillar being in this mangrove forest is credible.
Moreover, Canxing, Xuanqing and Leiyin had explored this area, and with the eyesight of the three spirit beasts, no abnormalities were found at that time, so the Demon Summoning Pillar must be in a place that can block the high-altitude view.
The Holy Glory team left behind two professional scouts, and the rest followed Rogge into the mangroves.
The forest is the terrain that Rogge is most familiar with. After all, he spent a long time hunting in the forest when he was young. Entering the forest is no different from returning home.
But when the members of the Sky Knight team thought about the ferocious giant scorpion, they were obviously a little serious.
The defender uncle whom Ofina took special care of had his legs shaking a little when he walked.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you? Are you so timid?" Ofina said teasingly.
"Oh, girl, you don't know how powerful that giant scorpion is." The uncle wiped away cold sweat, "I was walking first in the team, and the giant scorpion suddenly jumped out. If I hadn't reacted quickly, Use a shield to block its tail needle, and I and the brothers behind me will probably be beaten to death!"
The uncle said as he took out a shield with a big hole in it and showed it to everyone, "Look, my shield is a rare and high-level treasure, and it was penetrated just like that!"
Rogge glanced quickly and continued to pay attention to his surroundings.
The quality of the shield is good, and with the blessing of the defender's body, the giant scorpion is really powerful.
If Lunt were to block it, he would probably be able to block a hundred or so.
