Game of Destiny: This player is different

"What's next?"

Qin Nuo's voice pulled the three players out of their contemplation.

His tone was calm, as if he was not affected.

The black eyes under the bird-beak mask were calm and indifferent, as if they had already had the answer.

Baron Campbell raised his eyebrows, and he couldn't help but look up to this "detective".

After a few seconds of silence, she continued: "Next, the Second World will maintain a superior-subordinate relationship with the church on the surface, and secretly keep a low profile and begin to cultivate a force that can compete with the Knights.

I just said that humans continue to progress because of thinking.

Although the thinking process is a bit long, we finally found it.

A workshop that can make various mercury weapons and a group of loyal ordinary people who can still defeat the demons without relying on blessings.

It's just that the price of this achievement is very heavy.

The undercovers planted by the royal family, including the bishop, were all pulled out."

The baron took it from the housekeeper Lulu After taking a new bottle of fruit wine and taking two sips, he continued:

"The second king had already passed away, and the third king who succeeded him had a hot temper and directly tore his face with the Pope.

It turns out that the mercury weapons that are effective against the alien demons can also cause damage to the blessed knights.

The Night Watch and the Knights fought against each other, and the entire palace became a battlefield.

Fights broke out in every corner of the garden, corridor, and reception room.

No one remembers how many people fell, and the detailed casualty figures have never been announced.

Even His Majesty and I don't know."

Hearing this,

the four players couldn't help but be curious about the Baron's actual identity.

Although there are many negative news, it shows that she is very famous from the side.

Just going to the church for mass is escorted by two knights, which seems to be of a very high status.

Ordinary princes and nobles don't have this privilege.

Wealthy, you can get a glimpse of it from the food, clothing and daily necessities she shows.

Wealthy, powerful, and beautiful, a complete version of Aunt Mei in another world plus.

What on earth would such a person be planning by approaching four grassroots people?

With doubts, the group continued to listen to the Baron's story as they walked forward in the corridor.

"The conflict was well covered up, and both sides claimed that it was a fire in the palace.

The specific details have not been verified so far, but one thing can be confirmed, the always powerful church compromised for the first time.

Not only did it recognize the legal status of the Night Watch, but it even returned most of the power to the royal family.

The Principality is no longer dominated by the church, at least on the surface."

"But this is not your ultimate goal."

Qin Nuo, who was walking at the end, thought thoughtfully: "I felt something was wrong since I entered Ayuren Village.

The team followed the guidance of the housekeeper along the way, and it should not have too many accidents.

But the frequency of encountering demons was no less than that of breaking through the front.

Especially the earth dragon that appeared at the end, it was obvious that it had been waiting there for a long time.

I wonder how you should explain it, Baron?"

There was no answer, only hurried footsteps with different paces.

The deeper into the tunnel, the wetter the ground underfoot.

When a faint light appeared ahead, indicating that the exit was not far away, the ground had become unusually soft, like walking on wet mud, which was disturbing.

Stepping on the last wooden staircase upward, housekeeper Lulu turned the mechanism.

With the creaking of the gears, a baffle moved away.

Everyone finally walked out of the dark and lightless tunnel and came to the outside.

The swamp behind the village of Ayuren.

"Weren't you curious just now?"

The baron stretched out his palm and felt the raindrops falling from above: "Then I can tell you now that the offensive operation was a cover from beginning to end, and the purpose..."

Before he finished speaking, a loud rumble from a far distance reached his ears.

Housekeeper Lulu frowned as she stared at the passageway where the noise came from, and said lightly: "Someone triggered the mechanism, causing the other end of the passageway to collapse."

"It should be the church. So many demons couldn't hold them back."

The baron said with disdain: "If you want to force the stone door open without a key, it will only detonate the gunpowder buried in the mechanism.

Now they have to take a long detour to catch up, and they have to defeat a large number of demons wandering around the swamp."

"But it won't be delayed for too long, after all, we didn't tell the Night Watch the truth.

Maybe the Night Watch thinks we are in danger and is rushing here with the Knights."

Housekeeper Lulu poured a basin of cold water, completely ignoring the baron's dissatisfied eyes, and said to the players: "Seeing is believing, you will understand the truth when you reach the destination.

Now please follow us first."

The four players looked at each other, hesitated for a few seconds and decided to believe.

First, the commission reward was not obtained.

The dead blood of the gods' followers that raised the extraordinary items by one grade is undoubtedly very tempting.

Secondly, the system task has not been completed.

More than half a month of hard work, isn't it?It's for this step.

Thirdly, the master and servant don't seem to want to harm the players.

Of course, the third point is a matter of opinion, so don't make a conclusion.

The environment of the swamp is worse than that of the village.

The soft and wet ground like slugs, the smell of corruption that only comes from sludge, the dead forests with twisted roots, and the dangerous creatures lurking in the shadows.

It's hard to imagine that the once vibrant swamp wetland has become like this.

The housekeeper Lulu led the way in front, and the others followed closely behind.

This time she didn't deliberately lead astray.

In addition to avoiding the dark corners where the demons were hidden, they also carefully avoided the mud bubbles that looked like sludge.

To be fair,

If there was no guide who knew the terrain well, even the players would not want to set foot here.

"Be careful. Although our people have given a safe route, the swamp is ever-changing and no one can guarantee that it will be safe."

The housekeeper held a new parchment map in her hand and reminded loudly while identifying the direction.

The rain got heavier while they were on the road.

It wet the body, reduced visibility and made the road muddy.

Even the baron, who cared about his image, looked embarrassed at this time.

The cold wind mixed with rain scattered her hair.

The hand-made long boots stepped on two lines of footprints of varying depths on the mud.

She almost stumbled and fell several times, but fortunately Su Mali reached out in time to help the baron from falling into the quagmire.

Finally, more than ten minutes later,

an abandoned village that was inconspicuous in the dark environment and mixed in the dead tree forest appeared in sight.

"We're here, just ahead."

The housekeeper Lulu's eyes lit up and her steps could not help but speed up a bit.

Walking past the rotten wood and ruins that had long lost the breath of life, a circular magic circle with complex lines came into view on the extremely eye-catching open space in the center of the ruins.

At the edge of the magic circle stood a dozen cloaked black shadows, with their hands folded and pressed on their chests, silently chanting something.

A head turned into bones, dried intestines, bottles filled with red liquid, strangely shaped black meat, suspicious feces kneaded into round cakes...

A large number of offerings that can be named and unnamed are neatly placed in the magic circle according to established rules.

Qin Nuo noticed that in the center of all the offerings stood an exquisite statue.

The shape is highly similar to that of the goddess Ailin,

The difference is that one is pure white and the other is ink black.

"Baron, what is this?"

Su Mali frowned. Although he didn't know the truth, the scene in front of him looked like some kind of evil sacrificial ritual.
