Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Chapter 385 Liberation and Promise (Third update 8k4! Happy New Year to everyone~)

Red Maple City, Forge Manor.

It was already dark at this time, and the signboard of [Authentic Dwarf Blacksmith Shop] was hanging on the marble wall of the manor, being blown and swayed by the small wind, making a "squeaking, squeaking" sound.

The forging masters employed by the manor are still working hard on the forging. The sound of "ding, ding, ding, ding--" is lingering on the beams densely and rhythmically, intertwined with the rustling sound of the wind blowing the branches. into a melody.

Just like when he came to the manor dozens of times, Luo Xiu walked through the gate, walked into the courtyard of the manor, and then went straight into the largest villa and headed to the third floor of the villa.

Arriving at the forging room belonging to "Master Master" Mir, Luo Xiu knocked on the door. The door opened with a "quacking" sound, and Mir poked his head out from the crack in the door.

"I will fulfill my promise, my friend."

Luo Xiu smiled and greeted Mir:

"Tomorrow, I will embark on a holy expedition - but before that, I will help the last 'grit' dwarf and help him get rid of the [Steel Seal of Obscurity]."

"..."

"……good."

"Wait for me."

Mir nodded, and he immediately turned around and returned to the room.

Soon, he walked out with two pieces of secrets wrapped in white cloth. While hugging them tightly, he raised his head, looked into Luo Xiu's eyes, and said:

"Let's go...I'll take you there."

His voice revealed reluctance, but more importantly, determination. Luo Xiu looked at Mir and then at the two secret treasures he held in his arms, and said no more.

He then followed Mir through the secret door to the adjacent manor, and entered the hiding place where the last ignorant "Sand Gravel" dwarf was.

It was there - deep underground in the manor, in a dark underground stone room, Luo Xiu saw the last ignorant "Gravel" dwarf, and he sat on a wooden table with muddy eyes and a dull expression. chair.

His name is "Huck Gravel". Mir has introduced him to Luo Xiu before, and Luo Xiu's panel detection has also fed back the same result——

"Huck Gravel" is a "Rune Warlock" with the second life path of [Intellect]. He doesn't look too old, he should be only twenty-three or four years old.

Considering the long lifespan of dwarves compared to humans, "Huck Gravel" has not even reached adulthood. In fact, he is indeed the smallest of all "grit" dwarves.

At this time, the other thirty-eight dwarves who had been purified by the [Steel Seal of Obscurity] gathered around Huck and Gravel, sometimes looking at Huck and sometimes at Luo Xiu, with varying degrees of expressions on their faces. An expression of anxiety and anticipation appeared.

"Let's get started."

Mir walked to Luo Xiu and said in a low voice.

Luo Xiu stared at the last "Gravel" dwarf trapped in the "Steel Seal of Obscurity" in front of him, and raised his right hand slightly towards him.

The cooldown time of the Level II authority [Saint Seal of God's Admonition] ended at this moment. A bright golden light pattern suddenly flashed on the back of his hand, and his palm was pressed on Huck Gravel's forehead. ——

Buzz! ! !

Ripples appeared in the air, and fine golden light seeped out from the folds.

Just above the outline of Luo Xiu's body and the outline of Huck Grit's body, a light golden light gently covered them like gauze mist.

Behind Luo Xiu, the figure of the archangel holding a rattle and with compassionate eyes never appeared at the same time.

He looked forward with compassion, at the dwarf "Huck Gravel" who was trapped in ignorance. The rattle in his hand swayed gently, emitting a clear and distant echo, while at the same time he uttered a sacred and solemn sound from his mouth. "divine announcement"——

"——You will be baptized!"

Then, His figure slowly disappeared, and from the outline of "Huck Gravel"'s body, black silk mist began to slowly and wisps be released.

In the status column of "Huck Gravel", the status entry of [Steel Seal of Obscurity (cannot be purified, cannot be removed)] began to "burn", turning into ashes and disappearing bit by bit from the edge.

In the eyes of dwarf Huck, the turbid light was gradually dispelled, and gradually returned to the gnosis and clear light, but the expression on his face was still dull and confused, and a vague murmur came from the corner of his mouth:

"I...I..."

"I... woke up?"

"..."

"He's fine, he just needs to get used to it."

Looking at Huck Grit who was still "recognizing" the surroundings in confusion, Luo Xiu took two steps back and said to Mir:

"I'll wait for you outside."

"...Okay." Mir nodded solemnly and somewhat hesitantly.

After that, Luo Xiu exited the room and went to the courtyard of the manor to wait.

Just like when he rescued other "Gravel" dwarves from trouble before, Luo Xiu would always give them some time alone——

About twenty minutes passed.

While Luo Xiu was reading the [Player Forum] and paying attention to the main entrance of the villa corridor, he saw Mir walking out of the corridor with some staggering.

Luo Xiu then closed the forum, stood up from the stone chair where he was resting, and walked towards Mir.

He was still holding two pieces of ancient dragon secrets wrapped in white cloth.

Until Luo Xiu walked up to him, Mir stood silently for a while and said:

"Huck... the dwarf you just 'purified' is now awake."

"Like most of my people, he also needs a process of adaptation...but it doesn't matter. He is still young, and it won't take too long."

"..."

"That's good."

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

Luo Xiu had a smile on his face and said:

"Then, all your tribesmen will be out of trouble."

"You can rest assured, my friend. And I can embark on the sacred expedition without any worries. This should be something worthy of joy and praise."

"...Yes, this is indeed something to be happy about."

As Mir said this, he forced a smile on his face, and then placed the ancient dragon secret treasure held in his hands on the marble table beside him.

"Then, according to our previous agreement——"

Mir's voice was a little low, but he still said firmly, clearly, and solemnly word for word:

"These two 'Ancient Dragon Secret Treasures', [Dragon Flame Demonic Sword] and [Dragon Breath Scepter], they are yours... Luo Xiu."

"I hope they can be of greater use in your hands...but please be sure not to lose them..."

"..."

As he said this, his calloused hands rubbed the surfaces of the two "secrets" again and again, reluctant to let go.

"I promise you."

In contrast to Mir's reluctance, Luo Xiu said calmly:

"I won't lose them."

"And - since they are yours and are the secrets kept by the dwarves of 'Gravel', I am just keeping them on your behalf."

"I also promise you, Mir, my friend - if one day, you need to observe them, study them, and want to draw knowledge and inspiration from them, you can always come to me to get it back."

"..."

"Thank you, Luo Xiu."

As if his determination was strengthened by Luo Xiu's words, Mir finally pulled his hands away from the two secret treasures and thanked Luo Xiu sincerely.

"You are indeed the holy, noble and most good 'Bishop'."

He evaluated the "bishop" in front of him like this - that was the highest evaluation.

Luo Xiu nodded slightly and said nothing more.

He just took two steps forward and already held the two ancient dragon secrets placed on the stone table in his hands.

When I picked them up, I just felt they were heavy.

Out of etiquette and respect, he did not put the two ancient dragon secrets into the storage bracelet in front of Mir. Instead, he held them in both hands and turned around.

Under Mir's gaze.

The "bishop" of the church, Luo Xiu Carlos, held the cologne secret in his hand and walked towards the main entrance of the manor step by step.

Until his back disappeared outside the courtyard door and at the end of the street.
