Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Songyuan Castle Church.

After Luo Xiu and Bishop Raymond escorted Babylon back to Songyuan City, they went straight back to the main church, went to the church's prison, and imprisoned Babylon in the deepest prison.

In addition to the several layers of sacred restraints that Bishop Raymond had previously placed on him, Raymond also added dozens of seals to the cell where Babron was held - so strong that it can be described as a rice dumpling wrapped in iron hoops. ——Even Luo Xiu couldn't think of any possibility of Bablon escaping.

Unless the hidden sage of the "Hidden Omniscient One" personally brings people to rob the prisoner, he may not be able to defeat Archbishop Sid, and he will have to recruit another saint who is at least a "sixth level of destiny"... But if the situation really develops to that point, the [Intellectual] General Academy and the [Supreme] Department of Justice should intervene.

How to deal with the "Hidden Elder" Babelun also needs to be decided after discussion by the General Church.

Because of Babylon's special status - when he was in Red Maple City, Luo Xiu already knew from the mouths of two "generalists" Alfan and Eureka that he was once the "Servant of the Sage" of the General Academy. identity.

Therefore, Luo Xiu knew one thing very well - Babylon had a higher political value.

If the General Church learns that Babylon has fallen into the hands of the General Church, it will definitely send someone to negotiate with Archbishop Sid. At that time, the General Church will be able to use Babylon in exchange for more valuable items from the General Church. thing.

This was a deal from the top, and Luo Xiu, who had "followed" Babelon all the way and eventually worked with Bishop Raymond to take Babel into custody, had the right to participate in this deal and get a big share of it.

Luo Xiu is not in a hurry about this, he still just needs to wait.

When the time comes, the General Church will naturally send someone to notify him.

What we have to do now is to follow the guide to the healing room and recuperate with the other [Glory] saints who have just returned to the church...

After all, Luo Xiu is still full of injuries now... When he and Bishop Raymond walked out of the church prison, Luo Xiu saw his guidance priest and his slightly worried eyes. They looked at each other for three seconds.

"Excuse me, is it convenient for you now, Lord Raymond? And... Lord Luo Xiu?"

The clergyman in front of him timidly said, "Please come with me. Archbishop Sid has already told us that both adults need a good rest."

"If we delay the adults' time to recuperate, Archbishop Sid will blame us..."

"..."

It seems that in Archbishop Sid's instructions to them, the top priority is to allow the saints who participated in the destruction of the "Black Crystal Factory" to rest and recover. As for meeting the archbishop and reporting to him, they are secondary...

Luo Xiu looked at Raymond next to him. Because he did not really go deep into the factory, his injuries were much lighter than Luo Xiu's. However, he was also "ordered to rest" by Archbishop Sid, and He didn't seem to be surprised by this kind of thing.

"Indeed, if there is anything, we can talk about it later."

Raymond turned to look at Luo Xiu and said, "Let's go with him first, Luo Xiu. After all, this is not the front line of the border. Some things don't need to be urgent."

"Archbishop Sid must have heard the general situation report from Olivia and Krul. After that, we will make a detailed report to the archbishop. We also need to prepare."

"I understand." Luo Xiu nodded.

Of course he didn't resist this, and even quite agreed with it... Then he looked at the guidance priest, took a step forward in a relaxed manner, and said gently:

"Then please lead the way, this comrade. I think I do need to get enough rest."

…

Songyuan City Church, a place of healing.

It is a sanctuary that specializes in the ministry of "healing." It is a sanctuary that is separated from the church's "missionary sanctuary" and is one of the ten sanctuaries of the main church.

Standing in front of Luo Xiu at this time was a magnificent building composed of a pure gold dome and a pure white wall corridor.

Guide the priest to bow to Luo Xiu, and then introduce Luo Xiu into the healing sanctuary.

The main building of this sanctuary is quietly bathed in dappled sunlight. Luo Xiu walked into the wall corridor and saw that the thick stone wall dividing the courtyard surrounded the courtyard. Time had carved fine patterns on it, and vines were slowly climbing along the wall.

Along the cobblestone path, lined with neatly trimmed shrubs, they form an open walkway that leads deep into the courtyard.

Along the way, you can hear the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves in the breeze, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility.

Passing through the outer court and atrium, and finally passing through the porch leading to the inner court, the first thing Luo Xiu saw was a carefully carved statue of Xu Yu——

It was a statue of Xuyu, about six meters high. The function it was built here is similar to that of an "altar" - it is both the core of the sanctuary and a place of worship for believers coming and going.

The water slowly flows down from the bottom of the sculpture and forms a small pool. The aquatic plants in the pool are floating and blooming quietly. The water surface reflects the sky and gives a slight sheen.

"Please come in, Lord Luo Xiu."

The guide priest guided Luo Xiu's steps while introducing him, "This is the heart of this sanctuary - the archbishop has asked us to arrange a room for you, so you can rest in peace. "

Several glorious saints who had participated in destroying the "Black Crystal Factory" had already come here to rest. The guide priest led Luo Xiu into the corridor, walked into the quiet courtyard inside the sanctuary, and stopped in front of a room on the right.

Luo Xiu nodded slightly, and then walked in under the devout gaze of the guide priest.

The decoration in the room was very simple and elegant. A bunch of bronze keys were tied with ropes and hung on the door wall. Luo Xiu took them down casually.

He smelled a strong, but not pungent, but refreshing medicinal scent - right in the middle of the room, there was a large bath tub filled with golden soup, and the soup was steaming up a light white mist.

This is also what Archbishop Sid prepared for their returning [Glorious] saints... the "holy spring" medicinal bath method, which can effectively heal the injuries of the bather, curb most of the "curses" suffered, and relieve most of the negative abnormal status effects.

Luo Xiu heard footsteps - the priest who led him to the room before had left, so Luo Xiu closed and locked the door, changed into bathing robes, and then soaked himself in the bathtub -

A strong sense of wrapping suddenly surged from all directions. Soaking in the scorching medicinal soup, Luo Xiu felt a refreshing warmth from the inside out. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, as if all the boredom and hardship were swept away.

After closing his eyes and resting for a while, he felt that the wounds on his body had obvious healing and itchy feelings, so Luo Xiu opened the panel and checked his current state.

He did see that his upper limit of health, which had been reduced due to his injury, was slowly returning to normal while he was taking the medicinal bath. He then safely closed his character panel and opened the mailbox panel instead.

He was ready to do another thing, which was also a pre-determined plan - it was time to settle the reward for killing the "hidden elders" Elius and Gattuso!

Luo Xiu then lightly put his palms together, looked down at the two bright red dots on the panel, and "praied" in a voice that only he could hear:

"I sacrifice Connor to be single for ten years..."

- He hadn't made such an "evil sacrifice" for a long time!

When he left Red Maple City, Connor had already entered the state of "no woman in his heart, swinging the hammer against the natural god" - whether he still cared about the old priest's daughter, little Marilyn, Luo Xiu didn't know... But they had indeed not seen each other for a long time.

The ritualistic "sacrifice" session ended, and Luo Xiu gave the panel instructions to settle the reward for killing "Hidden Elder" Elius. The panel in front of him then floated with light and shadows-

[Kill "Hidden Elder" Elius (lv.46), get 11532 basic experience points]

["Hidden Elder" Elius (lv.46) is 6 levels higher than you]

[Over-level kill! Get 60% extra experience points...]

["Scorching Soul" takes effect, get 20% extra experience points]

["Evil Soul" takes effect, get 30% extra experience points]

[Reward settlement, actually get 24217 experience points! ]

[...]

["Hidden Elder" Elius is a natural disaster level boss]

[Reward for killing a natural disaster level boss is being generated...]

[...]

[Kill reward has been generated]

[Get the expertise "Blood of the Forbidden Spellbinder (Epic)", free attribute points*10]!

[Blood of the Forbidden Spell (Epic): You are stained with the blood of the Forbidden Spell, which grants you the power to surpass others, but also the pain that cannot be relieved. ]

[Your "Wisdom" attribute increases by 36 points. The strength or effect of the "Alchemical Golem" you make or the "Inscribed Rune" you draw will increase by 30%~50%, but it is easier to be damaged and out of control.

You will pay the price for this - when you make the "Alchemical Golem" or draw the "Inscribed Rune", you must use your blood as the object of staining.

The "Blood of the Forbidden Spell" flowing in your body will be the key material for making the "Golem" or drawing the "Rune". You must strip at least 5% of the blood at a time. The higher the blood you strip, the higher the quality of the "Golem" and "Rune". This specialty is disabled when the blood volume is less than half. ]

[……]

"……"

Looking at the new specialty refreshed on the panel, Luo Xiu frowned slightly.

Connor's ten years of singleness is no longer useful... sad.jpg

Luo Xiu smacked his lips, and once again put his palms together, muttering to himself to change the object of "sacrifice" -

"I sacrifice Anthony's ten years of singleness..."

Then, he reset the result of this settlement with the effect of his specialty "Wrong Path Explorer". The content on the panel in front of him disappeared, and the changing light and shadow appeared in front of him again.

[...]

[Kill reward generated]

[Obtained specialty "Divine Revelation Thinking (Epic)", free attribute points * 10]!

[Divine Revelation Thinking (Epic): Inspired by the 'truth', your way of thinking has changed considerably, and you can see more and more subtle images. ]

[Your "Wisdom" attribute is increased by 24 points, and the "Spell Attack" attribute is increased by an additional 10%. The spiritual power (experience required) you need to study, study, and draw scrolls has been reduced due to the change in your way of thinking. Under the influence of "divine thinking", you only need to consume half of the spiritual power (pay half of the experience) to successfully carry out the process of learning, studying, and drawing. ]

[……]

This is not bad... It seems that Anthony's peach blossom is still hopeful!

Luo Xiu couldn't help but smile faintly.

The epic quality specialty [divine thinking] gave a certain "wisdom" attribute value improvement, and made Luo Xiu's "spell attack" value even higher.

And its side effects can also be said to be versatile - that is equivalent to reducing the experience points required for Luo Xiu to learn skills from other places, and correspondingly reducing the experience points required for Luo Xiu to "create skills". In the long run, it can indeed save a lot of experience.

After settling the reward for killing "Hidden Elder" Elius, it was time to settle the reward for killing another "Hidden Elder" Gattuso——

As usual, Luo Xiu still "sacrificed" Anthony with a sense of ritual, and then gave instructions for panel settlement.

[Kill "Hidden Elder" Gattuso (lv.49), get 13346 basic experience points]

["Hidden Elder" Gattuso (lv.49) is 9 levels lower than you]

[Kill above your level! Get 90% extra experience points...]

["Scorching Soul" takes effect, get 20% extra experience points]

["Evil Soul" takes effect, get 30% extra experience points]

[Reward settlement, actually get 32030 experience points! 】

【……】

【"Hidden Elder" Gattuso is a natural disaster-level boss】

【Rewards for killing natural disaster-level bosses are being generated...】

【……】

【Rewards for killing have been generated】

【Gained the expertise "The Fallen One (Epic)", free attribute points*10】!

【The Fallen One (Epic): You know everything and know a fraction of the truth from everything, but you can't help but fall into it and tend to transition. 】

【Your "Wisdom" attribute increases by 36 points, "Perception" attribute increases by 24 points, and "Resistance" attribute decreases by 24 points. The skill scrolls you draw will have a success rate 10%~20% higher than normal, and the skills learned from them will have a skill level of lv.2~lv.3 at the beginning. 】

【……】

Huh… After calculating the reward for killing “Hidden Elder” Gattuso, the final result was good for Luo Xiu. At least he didn’t get any negative expertise, and he didn’t have to wait for three more days for the reset time of “Wandering Explorer”.

And this new “epic” quality expertise [Fallen Universal] is very helpful for Luo Xiu to create his own skills later, and it is also a very practical expertise.

Luo Xiu nodded with satisfaction, then closed the panel and began to enjoy the process of soaking in the “Holy Spring” wholeheartedly.

Until about an hour passed.

In the hazy white fog, Luo Xiu heard footsteps again, and his guiding priest seemed to have returned——

“Lord Luo Xiu, are you free now?”

He heard this voice:

“Archbishop Sid wants to see you first——If you are in good condition, please follow me to the High Temple.”
