My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 343 Healing Wind
Before Osman became the Pope, he had gone to Sinsaro City and had friendly exchanges with the Lord of Storms Church. He knew some of the situation there.
It is the second largest city in the Kingdom of the Hinterlands and an important defensive city for the Storm Lord Church.
Five levels of strikes are not enough to break the city's defenses. There must be other information that has not been disclosed or discovered.
He checked the document carefully again and found some doubts.
The city was defeated without opening the strongest defensive formation. The bodies of the dead people were distorted and their faces were strange. Red Archbishop Elias died on the city wall. When he was found, his figure was severely decomposed, with a fishy smell of the sea. .
He had a chance encounter with Eli, who was a powerful priest. If the Lord of Storms hadn't had a more talented priest, Eli might have taken over the Storm Scepter and become the Pope.
The red archbishop has the authority to open the asylum circle and the sanctuary. Why didn't Eli return to the church to open the sanctuary when the city's defense was hopeless?
This is a big doubt. Either they were quickly defeated due to a sudden force majeure blow, or they were given some psychological hints by the enemy and missed the opportunity to go back, or maybe both.
But hundreds of thousands of people in the entire city died in a similar way, which is definitely not a power that the fifth level can achieve.
If his guess was correct, such an effect would only be possible if the evil god's most powerful minions revived.
With the current spiritual concentration of the world, it should not meet the conditions for the resurrection of sixth-level creatures. Is it caused by the influence of the red moon night?
Osman fell into deep thought. Each church did not know much about the evil god itself, because the most direct contact between the two parties was not long, only a few decades.
The information that everyone knows is more about the Evil God's Familiar. After all, every time the small spiritual tide fluctuates, the Evil God's Familiar will be revived.
Due to receiving the gift of knowledge from the weirdo in yellow, he has a more comprehensive understanding of these evil gods.
His original guess was correct. The weirdo in yellow was a clone of Hastur, the evil god. For some reason, the evil god was sealed in a desolate world in the star world. He could only send out clones to wander around every few hundred years when the seal was weak. In this star field.
The clone's thinking is very rigid, and it will only give people knowledge according to a specific set of procedures. The purpose is to use this knowledge as bait to lure the person who acquires the knowledge to go to the star realm to release the seal after becoming strong.
It's a pity that the evil god's chaotic thinking made a miscalculation. The knowledge it gave it that it considered insignificant was far beyond the endurance of ordinary living beings.
If he hadn't acquired a certain secret technique that could deal with this kind of mental shock, he would have been not far from cognitive collapse at this moment.
Yesterday, Osman just analyzed a secret. He learned from the knowledge given by the evil god that the scarlet moon that appeared on the night of the full moon was not the original moon.
It is the reflection of a certain evil god reflected in this world from an unknown realm. The original moon of the world is blocked by him from all light.
This evil god will arrive with the spiritual tide, and its aura can accelerate the awakening of those sleeping evil gods.
Therefore, Osman knew a depressing truth. The recovery speed of the gods was slower than that of the evil gods.
It is very likely that when the gods fully recover, they will find that the world is in ruins.
Although gods do not exist based on human belief, without the belief of all living beings, gods lose a channel for rapid replenishment and consumption.
If a holy war breaks out again, will the gods still have hope of winning by relying solely on the heroic spirits in the Kingdom of God? He doesn't know if humanity has a future.
But now is not the time to think about this. He knows that if he does not become stronger as soon as possible, most of humanity will perish when the evil god resurrects early.
Sometimes, knowing more is a pain, and Osman is facing such a dilemma now.
He pressed his temples hard. The fall of Sinsaro meant that the coastal defense line of the Kingdom of the Hinterlands was completely torn apart. The families of the evil god Cthulhu would lead those deformed murlocs to invade the land in large numbers and spread fear.
If those dependents hold enough sacrificial ceremonies, Cthulhu's recovery will be further accelerated.
The Pope came back to his senses and saw that Moon was still where he was, and asked, "Do you have anything else?"
Moon bowed his head and said, "A red archbishop from the Lord of Storms Church came as a messenger. He said that he wanted to have an interview with you with the greetings of His Majesty Andre Williams.
Now, he is still waiting in the church parlor. "
Andrew is the current Pope of the Church of the Lord of Storms, becoming Pope ten years after Osman.
Osman understood that the messenger's purpose was nothing more than to request reinforcements.
He sighed and said: "If you reject him temporarily, just say that I have more important things to deal with. I want to think carefully about what to do."
Of course he understands the truth behind dying lips and cold teeth, but he has now reached a critical moment. He is only one step away from repairing the trauma at the origin of life, and he has no time to deal with other things.
"As ordered," Munn bowed and backed away.
Suddenly, Osman felt his eyes itching. He immediately covered his eyes with his hands and said, "You should leave too. Let those nobles' troubles go away for now. The church is not their thug."
Theo opened his mouth, said goodbye and left.
Recent events have caused considerable turmoil in the upper class society. If they are still ignored, the nobles will be more inclined to the king's line in the future.
The heavy door opened and closed, and the room fell into silence.
In the dark corner, a black-robed figure became clear from blur, and the dark guard leader Shaco appeared:
"Your Majesty, the matter of the nobles is not trivial. If we continue to ignore it, it will affect the majesty of the church."
Such appalling things have happened repeatedly in the seat of the Holy See of the Lord of Flame Church. They will be spread by people with embarrassment and will be interpreted as a sign that the dominance of the church has begun to decline, and the impact will be long-term.
"Sako, the reason why the church remains standing is not because of the support of the nobles, but because of our own strength."
"Your Majesty, I understand this truth, but the situation is getting more and more critical now. There are endless supernatural incidents in various regions. I am afraid that it will only rely on the power of the church."
Osman suddenly interrupted the secret guard commander's speech: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"My subordinates dare not."
"I do things in a measured way, and you should focus more on what you should do.
According to reports, a polluted place in Poto Province was suddenly purified some time ago. Do you have any news? "
The Pope knew that this was the creature of the star race living there, which Hastur called the Color of the Stars.
Star Colors are born with powerful pollution laws. They will drain the vitality of all living things and even the land in the polluted area, waiting to grow to a certain stage before returning to the starry sky to complete final maturity.
If a polluted land wants to be purified, it must be offset by a more powerful law, and this law must have strong vitality.
Sako lowered his head and said concisely: "Someone entered the contaminated land, and a battle broke out. An indescribable seven-color brilliance was evaporated, and then the area gradually recovered.
I think this matter has something to do with this person. He is wearing golden armor and has a pair of rose gold wings on his back.
Bishop Croun Moya of the Diocese of Rhineland once appeared in similar attire, and I think it may have been him. "
The polluted place was very close to the city. To prevent accidents, the surrounding area was always under surveillance. Investigator Andi from the Intelligence Department of the City Hall was a member of the secret guard, and she got first-hand information about the scene.
"Crown"
The Pope slowly murmured the name in his mouth and said to himself: "Is a fifth-level transcendent so strong? I am more and more curious about what his bloodline is, or whether it is caused by benign mutations that are rare and rare."
He paused and continued:
"You go down, I want to be alone for a while."
"As commanded."
Sako's body blurred and disappeared.
After his spiritual sense noticed that the other party left the window, Osman quickly stood up, opened the mechanism, entered the passage and came to his own secret room.
He stood in front of a mirror and removed the hand covering his eyes. In his left eye, red tentacles as thick as hair grew.
The tentacles were swaying gently, entangled with each other, like living creatures.
Using secret techniques to repair the origin of life is not without cost. The abnormal death of a silver-level creature will inevitably leave some resentful emotions. Even if he purifies it several times, some of these emotions will still remain.
In addition, swallowing the life origin of silver creatures requires a long assimilation process. He swallowed more than twenty silver-level life origins in a short period of time, and those strange energies began to rebel in his body.
On a microscopic level, his genes were constantly being torn apart, creating new mutations.
If he cannot suppress this situation, genetic collapse is his best outcome.
In order to conceal this situation, Osman quietly modified the church's pollution detection array. Now it seems that the array is operating normally, but even if the evil god appears in St. Peter's Basilica, it will not sound an alarm.
The Pope looked at his increasingly alienated left eye, with a ferocious look on his face: "The pace must be accelerated. I must repair the origin of life as soon as possible. As long as I repair the origin of life, I will definitely advance to the fifth level soon. By then, this kind of Pollution will be suppressed.
Now let me see which lucky person can be one with me and enjoy the glory that he should not have the opportunity to enjoy."
Sacco left St. Peter's Basilica and returned to the secret stronghold of the Dark Guard. He sat in the dark room, lost in thought.
Soon after the pope's trip to the Kingdom of Rabia, his personality began to change. He would often go out alone, and he was strictly ordered not to follow him.
He found that the Pope began to alienate him slowly, but he could not figure out the reason. He must know that he was once the most trusted person of the Pope.
Now Sacco is very panicked. He is vaguely aware of what the Pope is doing to harm the church.
"No, I will definitely investigate the Pope's whereabouts and make sure that he does not harm the church."
The secret guards are the sharp blades hidden in the darkness in the hands of the Pope, but they are also the swords of the church.
As the commanders of the secret guards, they also have a mission that the Pope does not know about, to monitor the Pope to prevent a traitor who would harm the interests of the church.
This is an insurance left by the gods, but this mission has never been used in the history of the Flame Lord Church.
The Pope resigned from the Saxon family. The reason why the secret guards looked on with cold eyes was because the new pope actively safeguarded the interests of the church and did a better job than the pope of the Saxon family.
Sako stood up, made up his mind, and began to prepare.
Somra leads the cultists on a rapid march, their goal is to return to the depths of the Andes.
Last night, the tribe's beast tamer detected that the Evil Beast Queen was killed in the battle. He understood that it was pointless to continue the attack, and he would definitely lose his troops.
Therefore, he immediately decided to turn around and run away after receiving this message. It was just 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.
The enemy is too ferocious, and coupled with the inability to fish in troubled waters, the tribe is not strong enough to capture the enemy's city.
Fortunately, although the tribe's high-level combat power suffered heavy losses, the enemy also lost a large number of ordinary people, and its war potential was greatly reduced.
When the tribe comes back next time, it will definitely win.
This operation was a shame for Somla, and he had to console himself in his heart.
Zoro ran over and said:
"Great Witch Doctor, we have been marching for seven hours. A large number of soldiers can no longer hold on. Please stop and rest for a while."
Somra stopped:
"Zoro, my warrior, the Evil Beast Queen has been killed. The enemy has flying creatures and may catch up at any time.
The sooner we get into the rugged mountains, the better for our safety. "
"However, the soldiers have begun to fall behind in large numbers."
"It is impossible for the enemy to catch up with us if they send out ground troops. They can only rely on flying creations, but low-level warriors are not their target, so those low-level warriors are relatively safe.
The danger is to us high-level transcendent beings, do you understand? We have to go deep into the mountains before the enemy pursues us, otherwise, you know. "
Somla turned around and moved on.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Crown left Rhine City and took an airship to Zac Town.
According to Fujin's intelligence, the area where the cultists were hiding required at least two days' march from Zach Town. He had only left for a day and a night, and the enemy probably had not arrived yet.
After arriving in Zach Town, Crown discovered that the cultists had not arrived. He released Fu Jin and ordered him to conduct reconnaissance to find out the enemy's movements.
Their departure must have been detected by the cultists. After all, the enemy has a large number of animal trainers. It is not too easy to just use some flying pets to detect the movements of the target.
He looked at Nick slightly worriedly. The other person had been silent on the airship.
Nick felt his gaze and showed a forced smile:
"Don't worry about me, I can do my own thing."
Even without his wife, Cavendi took good care of him. Now that his father-in-law died tragically, he didn't know what to say to Fanny.
He paused and said, "I'm going to command the troops to set up defenses."
Crown looked at his retreating figure, shook his head helplessly and sighed. It was too pale to say anything about condolences and resignation at this time.
He said to Del and others: "Please help Bishop Nick, and come back to visualize together after the defense is completed."
After Del and his party left, Crown returned to the church and summoned the golden wall.
[Healing Wind: 12/2000; Level 1] (The unique energy of life gives you the ability to release holy healing spells, and the effect is better than those priests using holy power.)
This is a gray skill. He searched through the church's library and found that only this one of the priests' holy healing spells could form a skill.
For priests, this skill is useless. It can only awaken the self-healing mechanism of the injured person and accelerate the healing of the wound.
But in most cases, the wounded who need to be treated with holy magic must be seriously injured and have low self-healing ability. Therefore, this holy magic is the least commonly used ability by priests, so that there are very few people who practice this ability.
But for Crown, such troubles do not exist, and it is good to have an additional active ability to recover from injuries.
The fourth-level golden light spell itself gave him a strong physique that far exceeded that of the same level. Coupled with the intermediate regeneration ability, he was no longer afraid of ordinary injuries, but these were only passive abilities.
He used his special energy of life to activate spells and began to practice the healing wind.
Half an hour later, Crown ended the practice and summoned the golden wall again.
[Healing Wind: 72/2000; Level 1]
He curled his lips slightly. A fifth-level transcendent practiced first-level spells. This progress made him dissatisfied. He didn't know if it was because he himself was not injured.
Thinking of this, he stopped practicing this skill and planned to train for half an hour every day.
Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to meditate on the Golden Light Mantra.
In the room, sometimes it is like the moonlight shining, and sometimes it is like the bright sun in the sky. He continued to visualize, and his proficiency in the Golden Light Spell was slowly increasing.
You will be rewarded for your efforts, and this feeling is always so intoxicating.
Kroon was immersed in the two divine wills, forgetting time, and only the flow of light remained in his consciousness.
Three hours later, Fujin initiated a dialogue request through Jinguang Taoism and took the initiative to pass over a little Sun Flame Liquid.
Crown places materials into the sea of consciousness space, opening up the spiritual link between the two.
"Master, I have discovered the cultists, but they are traveling deep in the Andes Mountains. Please give me instructions on what to do next."
The enemy has escaped? We have a promised fight, how can we run away, where is your backbone? !
Krahn grimaced, he was still thinking of using this war to gain experience in a wave of healing wind, but it seemed that the plan was ruined.
"Continue to conduct reconnaissance and observe whether they are really retreating or pretending to retreat. You will be allowed to return at sunset."
"Quack."
Since the enemy currently had no attack plans and was far enough away from Zach Town, he entered the sanctuary to practice cross-training the Breath of the Flame Dragon and the Golden Light Spell.
In the sanctuary, the dragon soul flew freely around him.
Five days later.
Based on Fokine's investigation intelligence analysis, Crown concluded that the cultists had most likely really withdrawn.
The enemy has now completely entered the interior area of the Andes Mountains, and should have come to the area where the Kurud tribe originally lived.
The departure of the cultists means that Zach Town no longer needs to continue its defense.
He has ordered the troops to start packing and prepare to retreat.
The number of airships is not large enough to transport all the supporting soldiers at once. Crown will leave first, and Nick and Del will stay here temporarily. They will not return until the troops in Rhine City withdraw.
On the way back, Crown chose to fly back instead of taking the airship. This was a good opportunity to practice flying magic and should not be missed.
Now when he uses flying magic to fly, his speed can be described as lightning.
It only took him more than an hour to fly over the Rhine City. After finding the location of the Holy Fire Cathedral, he swooped down from the sky.
After landing, Crown did not immediately look for Flanders, but instead summoned the Golden Wall.
[Golden Light Spell: 94158/300000; Level 4]
[Breath of the Flame Dragon: 44782/120000; Level 1]
[Flying Thaumaturgy: 4906/30000; Level 3]
The proficiency of the Golden Light Spell has almost reached one-third of this level, and he is quite satisfied with this increase in speed.
Now that the internal and external troubles in Rhine City have been temporarily relieved, he has plans to set off to find the next alienated place in the kingdom.
When Crown found Flanders, he had already sat back in the office and started working.
"Why are you working so hard? You still need time to rest before your injury is healed."
Flanders smiled bitterly: "I'm not as leisurely as you are. All major affairs of the entire diocese require my signature and approval, so I don't have any leisure time."
He took out a letter and handed it out, sighing deeply:
"A secret letter was sent from the Holy See, and something big happened again. The seaport of Sinsaro in the Kingdom of the Hinterlands fell, and the red archbishop who guarded the city died heroically.
In the future, the situation in the Hinterlands will be even more difficult, and we don’t know how long the Storm Lord Church will be able to hold on. "
Crown took the letter and read the information word for word.
A few dozen lines of words contain endless heaviness. A large city with hundreds of thousands of people has fallen. How the enemy did it has not yet been determined.
"What do you think of this?" asked the Archbishop.
Crown thought for a while and said in a deep voice:
“After the fall of Sinsaro, no other city in the Kingdom of Hinterlands suffered a similar fate, which shows that the enemy’s methods should be subject to certain restrictions.
I feel that if a spiritual church is determined to protect the land, it will be able to do so for a long time. Now it depends on their determination. "
"I think differently than you do. This incident is actually a worldwide event, and all churches and countries are facing threats from evil gods.
Due to the geographical location, the Storm Bishop must be on the front line to resist the evil god.
If they don't get help from other churches, I think they are likely to choose to give up some areas to concentrate the population, and at the same time make way for roads and fortresses leading to other countries, and direct the station fire elsewhere.
Although the Kingdom of Faruk is still far away from the Hinterlands, we need to prepare early. "
Crown nodded. This situation is almost foreseeable. When the pressure from the outside world has not reached a certain critical point, there is a high probability that intelligent creatures like humans will not unite closely together.
However, it is useless to dwell on these things, as the general trend is not easy to change.
The most important thing to do now is to continuously strengthen your own strength. When the big waves hit, you will have stronger ability and courage to face them.
"By the way, why did you come back suddenly?" Flanders asked.
"Archbishop, I have confirmed that the cultists have completely left. Now that the situation in Zach Town is stable, I left the airship reconnaissance troops and led the soldiers to withdraw.
Also, I am going to leave for a few days and go to another alienated place. "
