The history of the Church of the God of Light can be traced back to the period of the first cataclysm. At that time, it was only one of many beliefs. Until the second catastrophe came, those in other churches were called "divine arts" by believers. All abilities have lost their effect, but the Church of the God of Light has invented a power that ordinary people can master after training. They call it the power of holy light.

They formed the earliest Templar Knights to fight against the crazy mages at that time, and thus became heroes and saviors in people's minds. After eliminating all the mad mages, the church focused on those who were born with magic talents Children who haven't learned how to use magic yet, and haven't gone mad.

The indiscriminate killing lasted only for a short period of time, and it aroused public anger. Although people at that time hated magic, not everyone could accept that their innocent children were brought up by the church just because they "may have magical talents". Go to death.

The church was forced to find an alternative. They took all the children with magical talents to the magic academy under the control of the church, and forced them to learn a new way of casting spells without contacting the source of magic as apprentices, preventing them from falling into madness. At the same time, it also allows their power to be used by the church. -- "Feno Continental Encyclopedia·History"

Although it took less than a minute for them to fall down at that time, it took almost a week, maybe even longer, to walk up the passage. After all, no one can maintain an accurate sense of time in such an underground.

When they finally saw the mercenary team, they almost felt as if they had passed away.

Phils said triumphantly: "Look, I'll just say they're fine. Since I haven't been strangled to death by this magic collar, it means that Avondel must still be alive."

"Hahaha, I will definitely buy you a drink when I go out." The mercenary captain Herris seems to have quickly established an inexplicable friendship with Fiers during this period of time, and he is in a good mood at the moment, hug He kept patting the shoulders of the half-blood elf, who was extremely thin compared to his size.

The team has been waiting at this intersection for almost three days. I thought that the templar knights were probably in danger. After all, they fell from such a high place. They had no food or drink and were lonely. They might have lost their way and starved to death. Or get eaten by monsters, but fortunately the black boy insisted that they wait a few more days, otherwise they would not get the rest of the reward.

"That's what you said." Fiers said happily, "Don't worry, you can honor it before you have time to repent. The exit from the ground here is at most two days away."

The mercenaries cheered, but Knight Templar Commander Kent didn't look happy at all: "Wait, isn't the exit you mentioned the one we came in?"

"Of course not." Fiers said, "I don't know what you call that place, but this exit is on the south side of the Singing Forest, at the bottom of a cliff on the Heishuihe River."

Kent hesitated and said, "We'd better go back through the original entrance."

"That's not a good idea, to go to the original entrance, it will take us about a week to go back the same way to where you caught me, and then walk back for I don't know how long, I don't know Why do you have to go around such a big circle, but I have to remind you that there is not much food left, there is no salt, there is only the last bottle of fuel left, and there is not enough lighting. Go back and go deeper at this time The underground is not a sensible choice."

Evandel folded his arms and looked at him: "Go on, you still haven't finished talking."

Under the watchful eyes of the sorcerer, Phils could only sigh in frustration: "It's the 'Blood Spider', even if they thought you were dead, they wouldn't let me, a traitor, walk out of the underground maze like this. It's a day, these days they have been watching in the dark, looking for opportunities to attack, we stay underground for one more day, the more dangerous it will be."

The mercenary captain Herris said without surprise: "You really are not very honest, you must be cured by Mister Mage."

"Okay, just leave me alone for now." Fiers said, "Don't you want to eat fresh fruits and vegetables early, and drink a cup of hot ale by the stove?"

The mercenaries were in an uproar, not to mention that the supplies had indeed bottomed out, and the hard life of not seeing the sun had lasted for so long. Except for a few gray dwarves who were already living underground, no one wanted to stay underground any longer. 1 minute.

Under such circumstances, Kent couldn't continue to be stubborn, so he could only sigh weakly: "You guys can do whatever you want..."

Thinking that this is already the last two days of the journey, and no one needs to be encouraged, the morale of the team is very high, especially when the mercenaries think that they will be able to receive a very generous reward after going out, and they can have a big meeting in the tavern. Eating and drinking to their heart's content, each of them can't wait for the wind under their feet.

However, Basil, the Templar Knight, didn't seem happy, and even felt a little restless. Recently, he often wandered around Avandell, hesitating to speak a few times, and finally got up the courage to stop the mage in a corner: "Mage Sir, I have something I want to talk to you alone."

"Huh?" As soon as Evandel responded, Palos came over. Since he was responsible for the safety of the mage, he would not let Avandel out of his sight for too long, and he did have something to say: " Mr. Evandel, it's time to eat, everyone is waiting for you."

"I'll go right away." Evandel said to Basil, "Let's talk about it later."

After Evandel left, Basil looked at Palos with anger and resentment: "You really have to cling to him all the time, don't you really think that if you pay more attention, you will have a chance to have something to do with him? Daydreaming."

Palos didn't want to pay attention to this unreasonable provocation, and walked past Basil, who spat behind his back.

When they finally walked out of the underground passage hidden in the mountain and came back to the surface, it was dusk and the sun was about to set. The afterglow was not bright, but it still illuminated the eyes of people who had stayed in the dark for too long. Do not open your eyes.

No one wanted to retreat into the cave and wait until night to come out. Some mercenaries knelt down and kissed the ground under their feet in excitement, and some picked up a handful of weeds and put them under their noses to smell them vigorously, saying that they wanted to die of the smell.

Excitedly, they found the nearest village along the path. The villagers were frightened by this group of heavily armed but disheveled men. They thought they had encountered robbers, and only when they saw the money bags they took out did they smile.

Kent gave money to the young man in the village who was said to have the fastest legs and feet, and asked him to take a letter to the temple in the town. For the sake of the money, the young man set off overnight without any complaints.

The mercenaries were eager to eat up the entire vegetable garden like locusts. The only small inn in the village was packed to the brim. The mercenaries who couldn't sit down set up a bonfire in the open space outside. The innkeeper borrowed from the neighbors Tables and stools, and all the ale in the cellar were taken out, and the scene was as lively as a grand festival.

"With such a large sum of money, I can live and die in a brothel in Heishui City for several months!"

"Aha! I bet you'll lose your bet on the first night."

"I want to buy a two-handed sword that can be used as a family heirloom! What about you, Hans?"

"Huh? I'm going back to my hometown to get married. With this money, I can persuade Anna's parents to marry her to me."

"I also want to go back to my hometown. I promised my mother that after this trip, I will not take any risks. I will go home and buy a piece of land to be a farmer. Maybe I can buy another cow."

The mercenaries were enthusiastically planning how to spend the money they were about to get, but Kent was sitting in the corner alone holding the ball of life, and he seemed to have no appetite. Palos brought some food and went to him: "Why? Are you feeling well? Your complexion is not very good. "

"It's nothing... By the way, where is Avondel?"

"You should rest in the room upstairs. I saw him go upstairs just now."

"Go and see him. Even at this time, you can't let your guard down. Don't leave him alone."

Palos felt a little strange, but he didn't ask much: "Okay."

In the upstairs room, Evandel simply packed up his few luggage, and suddenly someone opened the wooden door behind him.

Evandel looked back and saw that it was Phils, the dark-skinned elf was holding a wine glass in his hand and a piece of celery in his mouth, and he leaned lazily on the door frame and said, "Why don't you go down to eat and drink together? It's busy down here."

"I'm leaving." Evandel said flatly, "You should also take this opportunity to leave here quickly."

The celery in Phils' mouth dropped in surprise: "Leave now? Don't you wait for them to pay, that's a lot of money."

"They didn't intend to pay at all." Evandel said, "When Kent first came to me, I thought they paid too little and nearly doubled the price, but he didn't even go back to discuss it. If not, I agreed. According to the rigid style of the church, he, a Templar leader, must not have the right to mobilize so much money. At that time, I knew that they had no intention of paying the reward at all."

"Killing the donkey? The abacus is good, and they are not afraid of kicking the iron plate." Firth, who grew up in the Undercity, has a completely familiar attitude towards these conspiracies and tricks.

"This is the last piece of advice for you. Most people on the ground may be kinder and more innocent than the dark elves, but some of them play tricks and tricks, and they are not inferior to the people of the Undercity at all. You have to be more careful." Wendell has packed his things and is ready to leave.

What he said made Phils feel uncomfortable: "I understand the reason, but what do you mean by the last piece of advice?"

"Literally," Evandel said, "let's part here."

Phils was anxious: "Wait, what about the collar around my neck?"

"Just take it off yourself, I just lied to you, there is no ancient magic on it." Evandel said, "I saw this collar from a black market dealer, because the gemstones on it are valuable, so I bought it , I was planning to find a chance to sell it for a good price. You can keep it as a souvenir, or sell it for travel expenses."

The mage went out as soon as he spoke. Phils didn't care about the intricate relationship between Avondel and the Templars. He only knew that even if he came to the surface, "Blood Spider" wouldn't just forget about it. For his defection, it was not easy to find another backer, so he had to continue to hold the mage's thigh tightly no matter what he said.

"Where are you going?" Phils followed Avondel's pace.

"Get out of here." The mage said vaguely.

"What a coincidence, I'm about to leave here too." Fiers said with a sullen face, "Don't mind letting me go with you for a while, anyway, I'll be on the way, I promise I'll be an interesting traveling companion, of course, if you I like to be quiet, as long as I say a word, my mouth will be closed tightly like a seal, and I will never say a word."

"It's up to you." Evandel doesn't care about such trivial matters. He just wants to get out of here quickly. If the Templars find out, things will only be more troublesome.

When Palos came upstairs and opened Avondel's door, there was no one there.

"Mr. Evandel?" He tried to call out, but no one nearby responded.

Palos felt a little uneasy. The human village should be considered safe. Even if Evandel was really in danger, it was impossible for him to be silent. Maybe he was just bored or too noisy. Go for a walk nearby. Palos decided Look around first.
