"Master Bishop, what should we do next?"
Gil adjusted his team and quickly asked Nok what to do next.
Nok looked at the knight who just spoke, pointed at him and said:
"Since you have been here before, let you lead the way. Let's go to the village chief's house first.
As the head of a village,
Let's investigate his house first, maybe we can find out what happened. "
"Yes! Sir!"
The named knight took the order and walked in front to lead the way.
However, before they reached their destination and walked around the corner of the village, they knew that it was no longer needed.
I saw a strange altar standing in the open space in the center of the village.
It is composed of black boulders with an ancient and mysterious shape.
It seems to carry horrific memories from ancient times.
Thick shadows filled the area around the altar, as if they were constantly rotating and flowing.
These shadows are full of evil fluctuations, as if they are sending a frantic call to the outside world.
The wind howled around the altar, bringing chills.
The huge stone altar still looked eerie and strange in the sunlight.
Its surface is covered with ancient symbols and patterns, which have lost their brilliance under the sunlight.
Gill and others did not know the function of this altar, but it was not difficult to guess that it was the place for some evil ritual.
But Nok knew,
This is the place where those obsessed with dark forces seek the power of terror.
The Altar of Life Sacrifice is the name of this altar.
In the church’s handwritten records,
Every time such an altar appears, it means a large number of lives have been sacrificed.
The place where such an altar is built becomes a place of death.
The living beings who were sacrificed could not even leave their souls behind;
All that is left is endless death energy.
Seeing this altar, even if the sun is still hanging in the sky,
But Jill and others still felt that the surroundings were chilly.
"Don't move, this is the altar of life sacrifice.
It seems that it has temporarily stopped functioning because of the loss of its controller.
But if you activate it by tampering, we will all be in danger. "
Nok warned everyone so that they wouldn't be too nervous and touch things they didn't dare to touch.
“I’ll go over and take a look first, please stay where you are and don’t walk around and touch things.
This altar is activated by a magic circle. Although there is no one to host it now,
But I'm afraid that the enemy will leave a triggering trap. "
Nok carefully squeezed out of the crowd and carefully identified the hidden magic formations on the ground.
The more he looked, the more frightened and angry he became.
Nok knelt down and groped the ground a few times with his hands.
He stood up and looked at the altar dozens of meters away, his expression getting increasingly ugly.
Nok turned around and walked towards Jill and others, waved and shouted:
"Everyone, turn around and run towards the entrance of the village! Quick!
Leave the village as quickly as possible! "
Gil and others didn't understand the reason, but they remembered Nok's instructions.
Upon hearing the order, the team immediately changed from the back row to the front row, turned around and ran towards the entrance of the village.
But at this moment, Nok discovered that the formation patterns under his feet began to emit a faint light.
This faint light was not obvious under the scorching sun, but Nok was always sensing the energy fluctuations under his feet.
Therefore, when the dim light began to shine, Nok noticed it.
"Quick! Speed up! Run with all your strength!"
Nok shouted anxiously, regardless of his image.
When Gil and others heard Nok's urgent shout, they no longer cared about maintaining their formation.
He directly used his fighting spirit to display his body skills and rushed towards the entrance of the village in a chaotic manner.
However, Knock did not run.
After he released several defensive magic spells on himself,
He condensed two light spears and inserted them into the magic circle nodes at his feet.
Then, he rushed to another node, condensed a sword and inserted it.
Without stopping, a light arrow appeared in his hand and was thrown towards another nearby node.
"Boohoo!"
Nok jumped up and threw two daggers condensed with holy light in the air.
The dagger landed on two other nodes on the ground.
Just as Nok was taking action, a black light appeared on the entire ground of the village.
Devour the sunlight falling on the ground.
When Nok saw this, he glanced at Jill and others who were already running towards the exit.
"We can't wait any longer! The holy weapon evil-killing array! Explode!"
Nok activated the magic circle he had set up.
This is a kind of evil-killing magic circle that has been circulated in the church for a long time.
The real evil-killing magic circle is used to trap and kill evil spirits and fallen creatures.
Weapons enchanted with holy water or holy light spells need to be used as the base.
Usually it is the team that arranges it.
After all, no one would go out with several weapons at once.
Well, ambush in advance doesn't count.
Nok, this is the castrated version.
Because he needs to detonate the formation and destroy the formation patterns and base of the sacrificial formation on the ground.
Nok detonated the magic circle, the power of the explosion,
The area where Nok deployed the formation was blown up beyond recognition.
The dim light that was originally on suddenly flickered twice and became dim and irrelevant.
But Nok's expression changed drastically, he turned around and rushed out of the village.
Because, he noticed huge energy fluctuations coming from the ground of the village!
"Damn it! It's actually a serial trap! Did that guy predict that I would go into the village to check?"
"No! He probably wanted to plot against the team that came into the village to check, then kill them and let the altar absorb them."
"But if the other person is not here, even if the person is sacrificed, how can he get the energy of the sacrifice?
Unless, the carrier is by his side! "
"Sophia!"
Nok suddenly understood.
Although the mysterious mage used dark magic, it was different from the pure dark power in Sophia.
Coupled with Sophia's unstable rampage and soaring strength.
Obviously, Sophia is the carrier of energy!
Boom!
Unable to understand, Nokk felt a wave of heat coming from behind.
Submerge Nok.
Bang!
The entire Stone Village seemed like a bomb that suddenly exploded.
The heat wave of the explosion overturned the Guards Knights at the entrance of the village.
Even if there are those who are quick to see an opportunity and pounce on it first,
He was also beaten into disgrace by the blasted soil.
The explosion continues.
A rumbling sound,
It frightened the Knights of the Guards and also frightened the people of Reims City.
Angeladi quickly sent out spies and went straight to Stone Village.
After a long time, the explosion finally stopped.
But the Knights of the Guards still covered their ears and lay motionless on the ground.
I don't know if he was frightened or if he was already unconscious.
On the contrary, Nok emerged from a dust pit in the village with a disgraced face.
The divine robe that was originally damaged due to the battle was still turned into rags, hanging gray on his body.
Her silver hair was also dyed into granny gray by the dust.
Nok looked around, his eyes full of bitterness.
After the sacrificial circle was destroyed,
The once peaceful and peaceful village has become unrecognizable.
A dilapidated scene rushed in front of us, with ruins and broken walls everywhere.
Mountains of rubble piled up, and the roads that once were there became riddled with holes.
The powerful force of the magic circle not only tore apart the house, but also opened deep gaps in the earth.
It seems to be telling people about the indelible disaster.
The air is filled with light smoke and dust,
The sun cannot penetrate this thick gray curtain,
It made the whole village look dark and cold.
Among the broken houses, fragments of various objects were scattered.
The remains of some furniture and utensils were scattered in the dust.
The village that was once full of life,
It is now in ruins.
The altar was blown into pieces and scattered throughout the village.
Nok was filled with anger.
That mysterious mage,
Not only did he sacrifice the lives of the entire Stone Village,
He actually had a backup plan,
Destroy the corpses and eliminate traces!
If Nok hadn't happened to meet him today.
It is estimated that even if someone discovers that Stone Village has been bombed by then,
I just feel that the people in the village are unlucky.
Killed by accident.
And the truth will be buried forever!
"Bishop Ryan, where are you!"
"Your Majesty Bishop, please answer when you hear it!"
"Mr. Bishop, please just say something! Don't scare us!"
The shouts of Jill and others were heard not far away.
He probably woke up and hurried over to find someone.
"Jill, I'm here! I'm okay!"
Nok responded loudly to their calls.
Hearing Nok's response, Jill and others were overjoyed.
The worries in my heart finally disappeared.
In Jill's heart, although the people in Stone Village are very pitiful,
But it was nothing compared to Bishop Lane's safety.
"That's great, Lord Bishop, you're fine."
Jill and others came up and looked at Nok up and down, fearing that Nok was injured somewhere.
As for Nok's embarrassed appearance, they automatically ignored it.
Because they themselves are no better.
Moreover, if Nok hadn't reminded them to leave in advance,
I'm afraid their bodies would have been wiped out by the explosion.
In their hearts, they were very grateful to Nok.
If it were any other big shot, he would have run away the moment he discovered the danger!
Who cares about their life and death!
"Master Bishop, let's go back to the city first.
What happened here will be investigated later by the Lord's Mansion.
I can't let you be in danger again. "
Captain Gill is now frightened, regardless of whether Nok listens or not.
He quickly persuaded him to return to the city.
Nok thought about it and decided not to embarrass them, so he nodded in agreement.
So, the group of people hurriedly retrieved the frightened war horses, mounted them and returned to the city.
The people of Reims, who were originally frightened by the explosion,
After seeing Gill's miserable team,
His face became even more panicked.
at the same time,
After receiving the news, Angeladi stopped working and took people out of the Reims City Administration Building.
Go to the church to visit Nok and inquire about the specific situation.
Although she also heard Custer's report in the administration building,
But the words are unclear.
I originally thought it was just an attack by two dark mages.
Now it seems,
The situation is not that simple.
Noklein’s strength,
Others may not know clearly,
She tested it herself,
But I can't hide it from her.
A gold-level light priest,
What dark mage can defeat him.
Could it be that the one who came was a saint-level dark mage?
If it were a saint-level person, the movement would not be so small.
Even the city of Reims is in danger!
And if it is gold level, in the same level, the dark system is no match for the light system.
Not to mention the corrupted dark mage, who combines darkness and evil into one,
Being restrained by the priests in all aspects!
