Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

——Ancient Dragon Secret Treasure!

[Dragon Flame Demon Sword] and [Dragon Breath Scepter], Mir was finally willing to take out his two ancient dragon secret treasures.

That might be related to the fact that he had purified the [Ignorance Seal] for twenty "Gravel" dwarves... Luo Xiu thought, just like completing a task with a "hidden reward" more than halfway, and triggering the key prompt of the "hidden reward" from the actual scene outside the task-

"Is this okay?"

Although he was quite excited, Luo Xiu still kept a calm and calm expression on his face and asked Mir back.

[Dragon Flame Demon Sword] and [Dragon Breath Scepter]-that was indeed what he had dreamed of for so long, but the more so, when they really appeared in front of him, he became calmer.

"...No problem."

Mil nodded solemnly and said:

"When Patriarch Ratamon handed them to me, he might have thought that there would be such a day."

"To be honest, I can't control them now... Even if I know that they contain secrets that I don't know, there is nothing I can do. After all, I am just a transcendent who has not even "become a saint."

"..."

Mil's tone was a little lonely. After saying this, he immediately raised his head and looked at the "Bishop of Red Maple City" in front of him, looked at his old friend Luo Xiu, and said:

"And you...giving you two ancient dragon secrets can at least Let me rest assured. "

"You are a true genius. You have been promoted to the 'fifth level of destiny' in less than half a year and have become a true 'saint' - I have never seen a genius like you. Therefore... they can play a greater value in your hands than in mine."

"And - you can understand it, right? Luo Xiu... This is an agreement, a 'contract'. A 'contract' that can make me feel at ease and have a clear conscience. "

"In this way, I don't need to have any psychological burden for my people anymore. "

"..."

When Mir finished speaking, Luo Xiu had completely understood.

The reason why he showed the two "Ancient Dragon Secrets" to himself at this time - that was part of the reward, but also to strive for the greatest "guarantee" for his people, for the dwarves of the 'gravel'.

Just as Mir said - it was a 'contract'.

In his eyes, his purification of the [Ignorance Seal] for the dwarves of the 'gravel' tribe was not out of obligation or responsibility, but a goodwill act that could be stopped and abandoned at any time.

And now——in return for the two ancient dragon secrets, as long as I agree, I will continue to save the dwarves of "Sand Gravel", that is the "contract"——it will truly become my obligation or responsibility.

Mir did think so.

Luo Xiu understood this very clearly.

But what Mir didn't know was... his original purpose was the two "Ancient Dragon Secrets"!

He didn't actually need to bring it up himself.

When the dwarves of "Sand Gravel" purify the [Ignorance Seal] five or six more times, I will ask him about the "Ancient Dragon Secrets"... Luo Xiu thought to himself, but now that Mir took the initiative to say it, it saved a lot of trouble.

"I know."

Luo Xiu nodded solemnly and said:

"I will do my best to help your people get rid of this disaster."

"Okay, okay..."

Mir picked up the two secrets again, stood there and looked at Luo Xiu, and then looked at the secrets in his arms.

His eyes seemed to be a little moist, and a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. After a while, he said:

"I'm waiting for... waiting for this sentence."

...

After that, Luo Xiu left Mir's forging room and left the forging manor.

He had already checked with the panel that the two "Ancient Dragon Secrets" were indeed the [Dragon Flame Demon Sword] and the [Dragon Breath Scepter]. After making such a "contract" with Mir, he only needed to focus on purifying the ignorance seal for the remaining "Grit" dwarves, and he could obtain them naturally and without risk.

And now - there are still about two months before the outbreak of the "Quesanx Disaster" in the previous life.

That is enough for me to save all the "Grit" dwarves... Even if the current timeline may have become different from the previous life due to my own factors, it is still sufficient.

Luo Xiu thought about this.

He had walked out of the courtyard of the forging manor, walked onto the main street of Red Maple City, and returned along the path in the direction of the church.

...

Ten minutes later.

Luo Xiu returned to the church and went straight to the bishop's seat.

After returning to the bedroom, he pulled up the "Golden Barrier" and summoned the "Shadow Raven" to create a real phantom of himself. Then he activated the seal of the royal court and teleported to the royal court of Isor.

That was the second thing he would do tonight.

-- He would preach the "Lord of the Holy Abyss" to the second wave of players who were "invited" to the Holy Abyss, and give them the task of [Great! Holy Abyss!]!

He did this -- in the morning, he handled church affairs with Anthony, in the afternoon or afternoon, he went to the "Forge Manor" to purify the [Ignorance Seal] for the people of "Sand", and in the evening, he went to the "Holy Abyss" to entertain his lovely players -- and this cycle repeated for two days.

And his "Spiritual Spring" panel - the experience points accumulated in his experience pool have almost broken through the upper limit twice, and the number of experience points extracted and converted into his character panel and experience slot has reached more than 20 million.

The resonance level of the "Spiritual Spring" is still level III, but Luo Xiu can clearly feel that the "divine object" he holds is becoming obviously restless, and the time to break through the next resonance level seems not far away.

…

In the evening of February 29, 768th year of the Apocalypse Calendar.

This is the third day after the victory in the defense of Red Maple City.

In the Red Maple City Church and the Bishop's Seat, Luo Xiu had put on a gorgeous bishop's robe with gold patterns. He was about to leave the church to attend an important "dinner" -

Three days ago, the "Great Inquisitor" Baines, the "Knight of the Throne" Frosa, and the "Lord of Red Maple City" Nelson were envoys. The "Border Court" had sent a dinner invitation to Luo Xiu, the "Bishop" of Red Maple City, and Luo Xiu was now preparing to go to the Border Court.

He took the golden scepter symbolizing the identity of the "Bishop" and the invitation written by Albert, then left the Bishop's Seat and walked out of the church's door.

The high-ranking people of the church, "the presiding priest" Anthony, and the three "priests" of the sanctuary, Howard, Gracia and Fran, had already gone to the Border Court in the evening to handle many diplomatic affairs of the church.

Half of the "deacons" of the "Triple Fate" also followed the high priests and priests to the side court, acting as the church's facade and assisting the high priests and priests in handling some work.

After they had almost finished handling all kinds of complicated diplomatic affairs, it was time for Luo Xiu, the real head of the "church", to go to the side court.

Under the gaze of dozens of clergy, Luo Xiu had stepped down the white doorstep of the church, and his eyes had fallen on the street-

A gorgeous chariot with red and gold patterns painted on the "side court" had been waiting at the door of the church for a long time.

The driver of the carriage was the "Lord of Red Maple City" Nelson.

When he saw the bishop of the church walk out of the church gate, he quickly got down from the driving seat, came to Luo Xiu, and saluted him respectfully.

"You are finally here, respected bishop."

Nelson greeted Luo Xiu humbly.

He was wearing a black dress for a "servant". His left hand with a white glove reached out to Luo Xiu, and his right hand was swung toward the carriage, making a standard "please" gesture.

When Nelson greeted him, Luo Xiu just nodded slightly in response.

But Luo Xiu did not accept his support, but gently placed the "invitation" written by Albert on Nelson's left hand. Then, while he was still showing the "please" gesture, he came to the small door of the carriage and boarded the carriage.

Nelson also stood up and returned to the driving position. He whipped the two horses three times, and the horses neighed to the sky -

Squeak, squeak, the wheels of the carriage began to turn and drove towards the end of the street.

The carriage in the side court was driving quite smoothly. Luo Xiu had opened the curtains. Seeing that the clergy of the church were still watching him from afar, he waved to them, indicating that they could go back.

Then, he closed the curtains again, and naturally leaned on the soft sofa, finding the most comfortable position.

In front of him was a small and exquisite coffee table, on which a fruit plate carved from some kind of sandalwood was filled with various fruits. Luo Xiu picked up one of them and put it into his mouth.

While tasting the fruit, his eyes passed through the door screen in front of him, and he could vaguely see the outline of Lord Nelson who was driving.

Just as he was enjoying the scenery, looking at Nelson's back, Luo Xiu suddenly remembered something else in his heart.

The second Lord of Red Maple City after Lodifu should have been the most popular NPC among the players of Red Maple City...

But because of his own reasons, the "Thunder General" Albert was sent to Songyuan Territory, and Nelson, who was originally an ordinary student of Baines, seemed to have truly become "ordinary" because of this...

Although he is still the "Lord of the City" - because the rule of the [Supreme] over ordinary people does require an ordinary person to take this position.

But the things he can access and the authority he can have are very limited now. He can no longer establish a deep connection with the "Adventers" as in his previous life, and thus get the real recognition of the [Supreme] as an ordinary person.

Luo Xiu thought to himself, and he looked at Nelson's outline shaking due to light and shadow through the window screen, and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

But...this is good, from another perspective, this is not a bad thing for Nelson.

At least - he will not die with the dying Red Maple City in the last Red Maple City defense battle like in his previous life.

He can survive.

At least I can live a busy and stable life until the end of the "Judgment War".

...

Nelson drove the chariot and brought the "Bishop" of the church, Rosso Carlos, to the main gate of the side court at around nine o'clock in the evening.

None of the guards on duty did not recognize the appearance of the "Bishop" of the church.

When Nelson led Rosso off the chariot and came to the front of the main gate, the guards put away their long spears and saluted the "Bishop" Rosso Carlos as a superior.

And Lord Nelson walked up to a guard knight and showed him the invitation from the "bishop". The guard knights quickly made way to both sides to allow the "bishop" of the church to pass smoothly.

Under the leadership of Lord Nelson, Luo Xiu entered the side court and soon arrived at the magnificent main gate of the "Grand Auditorium".

A correct version in 1619 Book Bar!

A gorgeous palace with a Byzantine style came into Luo Xiu's eyes. Its outer wall was shining with ochre red light, and black and white lines were neatly intersected on the outer wall. The window panes were decorated with glazed inlays with exquisite patterns. Two statues of lion knights stood at the main gate, which looked majestic and solemn.

Earlier, about two months ago, Luo Xiu had come here once to participate in the celebration dinner hosted by Baines.

When he came here again this time, he saw that the Grand Auditorium had been renovated again. For example, the ochre red of the outer wall was a new paint, and the two lion-headed knight statues standing in front of the main gate also shone with a shiny light, which showed that it had been well taken care of.

This shows that Albert attaches great importance to this dinner - the people he invited may not only be the high-ranking people from the three major fate settlements in Red Maple City...

As Luo Xiu thought about this, he saw from the corner of his eye that Lord Nelson had come to the side of the main gate and was doing the handover steps with a "throne knight" who was guarding the auditorium.

In front of the main gate of the Grand Auditorium, two "throne knights" and eight "guard knights" were guarding here, which was more impressive than the last time Baines held a dinner... Luo Xiu thought about it, and he also saw that Nelson had completed the handover with the throne knight.

Lord Nelson stood there respectfully, with his hands folded in front of him, waiting humbly for the moment when the "bishop" of the church entered the auditorium.

Luo Xiu then withdrew his waiting gaze, holding the scepter that symbolized his status in his right hand, and walked on the red carpet of the auditorium under the salute of ten border knights.

Passing through the magnificently decorated corridor, he and Nelson had arrived at the belly hall of the auditorium.

That was the main venue for Albert's dinner.

It was a hall that could accommodate a thousand people. Its round dome covered the hall, and it contrasted with the rows of colorful semicircular window panes opened halfway.

Unlike the last time he came here to attend the dinner hosted by Baines, this time, the banquet hosted by "Thunder General" Albert was obviously more luxurious.

The auditorium was already full of guests, including scholars from the "Fangbei Courtyard", clergy from the "Church", and nobles who were invited by the Border Court and were influential in various fields in Hongfeng City.

The finely carved crystal chandeliers flashed colorful lights like stars, casting soft light on the nobles in gorgeous dresses, flashing a little bit of brilliance.

The guests were dressed in various gorgeous robes. Many guests had walked hand in hand into the dance floor, stepping on the rhythm of string music and began to dance happily; the hems of satin and silk gently swept across the ground as they spun, and the air was filled with the fragrance of incense and flowers.

When Luo Xiu entered the auditorium, many guests looked at him and quickly recognized him -

As the "bishop" of the Hongfeng City Church, the extraordinary people of the three major fate settlements in Hongfeng City, and the nobles in various fields of Hongfeng City, almost no one did not recognize him.

Many guests smiled and surrounded Luo Xiu, wanting to have a chat with a "bishop", but they were all politely rejected by Lord Nelson or Luo Xiu.

The rejected guests returned home unhappy, but these small episodes did not prevent the lively dinner from reaching one climax after another.

Between the brocade curtains, amber lights and delicate murals interweave one lively picture after another; the crisp sound of high-heeled glasses colliding one after another, echoing on the smooth stone floor with the waiters' light steps.

Luo Xiu admired the lively scene at the dinner, and at the same time, under the guidance of Nelson, walked into the depths of the auditorium.

On both sides of Luo Xiu's prayer table, silver tableware shone in the candlelight, reflecting light shadows; waiters passed by Luo Xiu one by one, holding silver plates in their hands, on which were displayed delicacies served in exquisite porcelain, exuding tempting aromas.

The [Supreme] knights who were maintaining the scene also held the hilts of the heavy swords hanging on their waists, and two or three knights patrolled back and forth in groups to prevent any unexpected chaos.

The string orchestras of the side court had also played a cheerful prelude on the side, and the graceful melody was like a breeze, lingering on every gently shaking glass.

...

When Luo Xiu stepped into the middle of the ceremony hall.

The high-ranking clergymen of the "church" who were wandering in the dinner with other guests had seen him through the crowd.

At this time, Anthony, the "presiding priest", was chatting with a throne knight of the side court.

Other clergymen of the church were not far away from him, so Anthony ended the conversation here first, led the clergymen of the surrounding churches, and came to Luo Xiu.

"Greetings to you, Bishop."

Anthony greeted Luo Xiu first, and the other clergymen behind him also offered greetings.

Luo Xiu nodded slightly, asked them to return to the dinner, and then he and Nelson walked deeper into the auditorium.

He and Nelson finally reached the long golden steps leading to the higher level. There were no guests around, only a "Knight of the Throne" guarding here.

Luo Xiu recognized the armor and the double-edged giant ax in his hand. It was none other than "Knight of the Throne" Frosa.

When Luo Xiu looked at him, Frosa also turned his head and looked at Luo Xiu.

"Welcome, Bishop of the Church."

From under Frosa's helmet, Frosa's easily identifiable, low and hoarse voice came out:

"Please come with me, General Albert will be waiting for you above."

He immediately looked next to Luo Xiu, towards Lord Nelson, and said to him:

"You can back off now, Nelson."

"Yes, Lord Frosa."

Nelson then took two steps back, bowed respectfully to Luo Xiu, and said:

"Then, please allow me to take my leave, my dear Bishop."

"Afterwards, Mr. Frosa will guide you and bring you to meet General Albert."

Luo Xiu did not respond, just smiled and nodded, and Nelson then turned around and left lightly.

Frosa immediately stepped forward. The armor plates he wore collided with each other, making a series of crisp sounds, and paid Luo Xiu the "Supreme" military salute.

"Come with me, Bishop."

He said to Luo Xiu, then turned around and stepped on the golden steps to the second floor.

Luo Xiu followed him to the balcony on the second floor and continued walking deeper.

Until the bright lights of the banquet hall could no longer shine here, and only the delicate lamps on the walls on both sides flickered with dark yellow candlelight. Luo Xiu had followed Frosa to a dark red door.

Frosa stepped forward, raised his armor-covered arm, and knocked lightly on it——

"Come in."

From the other side of the door, a gentle, calm voice came.

That was not the voice of "Thunder General" Albert, but Frosa had no unexpected reaction to it.

After that, he pushed open the dark red door, letting the scene in the room enter Luo Xiu's field of vision.

General Albert is sitting in the side seat.

And next to him, in the "chief seat" position——

The first time he saw him, Luo Xiu recognized him.

That was the son of the Marquis of Vizia, the eldest son.

——The Knight Commander of the "Round Table" Throne, "Lord" Gawain Bakar!
