Path of light

Chapter 640 641. The Priest in the Cave

Leah saw Roy step across the wall of holy light with her own eyes. She quickly ran out of the corner, but the closer she got to the wall of holy light, her body began to exude a dark atmosphere, and her whole face turned pale. Very weak.

Great Swordsman Alvin turned around and saw that Roy had passed through the Wall of Holy Light.

He quickly ran to the wall of holy light, put his right arm across his chest, and moved hard towards the top of the wall of holy light. He followed Roy and passed through the wall of holy light.

But it was as if he had hit a steel plate, and his body was bounced back directly by the wall of holy light.

The great swordsman Alvin used too much force, and the huge force of the rebound caused him to fall onto the cave stone ground.

He shouted loudly: "Roy, Roy, look inside, there must be a place to close this magic circle..."

Unfortunately, his voice was also isolated outside the Wall of Holy Light. Roy, who entered the Dragon's Treasure, did not hear the shouts of the Great Swordsman Alvin. He was attracted by the deterrent power from the frost dragon, and his eyes always fell. On the remains of the huge frost dragon.

This giant frost dragon lies on top of a pile of jewelry and gold vessels. Its huge body is more than forty meters long, and the pile of treasures under its body is also very huge...

It's just that there is no head on the frost dragon's neck, as if it was chopped off with a sword. Roy looked around the cave and did not see the frost dragon's head.

The frost dragon's body is covered with a layer of transparent ice crystals, which is why its body has not decayed or disappeared.

The impact of this frost dragon on Roy was too great. He only learned from Byron Thor a few days ago that the emerald dragon on the Elf Continent has disappeared for thousands of years...

Although this is only a few generations for the elves, it must be said that this is a long time...

Roy was very curious about these dragons.

Unexpectedly, at the edge of the abyss deep in the dark land, the remains of such a giant frost dragon were actually found.

Only then did he remember and look back, just in time to see the great swordsman Alvin lying on the wall of holy light, gesturing at him.

Roy couldn't hear what he said, and the actions he made were very strange...

He could only point to his ears to express that he couldn't hear anything. At this moment, the great swordsman Alvin stopped his unnecessary movements and began to take out a piece of parchment from his arms, took out a charcoal pen, and quickly Write a line of words and quickly paste it on the wall of Holy Light.

Roy saw the words above clearly. Alvin the Great Swordsman wanted him to find the magic circle that controls the Wall of Holy Light in the treasure, and try to remove the source of mana from the magic circle so that the Wall of Holy Light would stop. operation.

Roy felt that what Great Swordsman Alvin said made sense. Although he did not get close to the remains of the frost dragon, he started looking around in the cave.

Unfortunately, Roy took a few steps inside to explore and did not see any magic circle arranged in the cave. He did not dare to get too close to the remains of the frost dragon. Besides, it would not be good for him to walk there alone. After all, it was the treasure left by the dragon.

So he only walked a dozen steps into the cave before cautiously retreating.

When his body touched the wall of holy light, a strange scene appeared again. Ripples appeared on the smooth mirror-like wall. Roy passed through the wall of holy light easily as if passing through a water curtain.

"Roy, you...how did you get out of it? You can search inside. If you can close the magic circle, we can get through here..."

Great Swordsman Alvin asked Roy with some confusion.

Roy pointed inside and said:

"I looked around inside, but I didn't see the magic circle. I might have to walk inside. The giant dragon was lying in front. When I saw it, I felt that my legs were weak. Otherwise, we would kill Sidri. Magister Ke and the others have come here, maybe Magister Cedric and the others have a way to crack the wall of holy light."

"Grandpa Liu told me that when he found this place, this wall of holy light existed. I thought that after so long, the source of mana of the magic circle had been exhausted long ago, and this wall would disappear. , I didn’t expect this wall of holy light to continue to this day...still exists.”

Great Swordsman Alvin knocked hard on the wall of Holy Light with his fist, and the wall immediately sent out a counter-shock force and bounced him away.

Great Swordsman Alvin set his sights on Roy again and said to Roy:

"Roy, if you search inside again, you might be able to find it! Be careful... don't get close to that frost dragon. Usually after the dragon dies, its body will be recalled to the Dragon Cemetery by the dragon god. This frost dragon The remains of the giant dragon are left here, and there must be some kind of restriction on them. It may be dangerous to approach them rashly. "

Roy couldn't resist the repeated urging of Alvin the Great Swordsman, so he had to turn around and pass through the Wall of Holy Light.

Suddenly, the intimidating force coming from the remains of the frost dragon made him feel uncomfortable all over. A ray of warm holy light shone on Roy's body, immediately allowing Roy to regain his mobility.

Roy took a few steps inside, then turned back hesitantly and glanced at the great swordsman Alvin waving to him through the wall of holy light.

The frost dragon in front of me is really too big...

Perhaps because the cave was filled with holy light, Roy could clearly see the transparent ice crystals on the frost dragon's body. He did not get too close to the remains of the frost dragon, but avoided it from a distance, avoiding the dazzling jewels and gold under its body.

In fact, even the great swordsman Alvin outside the holy light wall was impressed by Roy when he saw that Roy was not moved by so many jewels and gold.

Not everyone can resist these gold jewels, even the Silver Moon Elf nobles are no exception.

But after Roy entered the cave, he did not take a second look.

This should have been a frost dragon's nest. Roy saw some shed dragon scales around the cave, and the cave wall was also very suitable for the dragon to roam.

In fact, Roy was looking forward to finding a dragon egg in the cave. He was a little excited when he thought about feeding a dragon...

Roy walked inside. The cave was also covered with gold. Some ornaments such as crowns and bracelets were buried in the pile of gold coins.

These gold coins should not be obtained from elves. Although elves like gold ornaments, the currency circulating in the elf kingdom is Koler, which is actually a kind of sea shell.

Roy stepped on a few gold coins scattered on the ground, and the gold coins and the soles of his shoes made a creaking sound.

Just when Roy turned around, he suddenly saw a skeleton half lying against the corner of the rock wall. The skeleton had completely decayed. Only a little bit of dried skin wrapped around the skeleton, covered with a layer of tattered priest robes, and a red high-top hat on his head that only temple priests were qualified to wear.

At this moment, the tall pointed hat had covered the skull.

He was holding a sacred prayer book in his arms, and his other hand was in a praying gesture.

In fact, Roy felt that something was wrong with this cave at the beginning. When he saw the body of the temple priest, he remembered:

Why is there such pure holy light power in the core area where the dark energy is the most concentrated? The holy light power can even condense a holy light wall, isolating everything from the outside world and forming a completely closed space.

So much holy light power must not have been originally in the dark land.

Seeing the corpse of the priest in the cave, the holy light power here has a reasonable explanation.

Roy walked over and squatted in front of the corpse of the temple priest. He performed purification on it, but unfortunately there was no trace of soul power on the corpse of the temple priest.

Purification has no effect in the cave full of sacred atmosphere.

The best way to bury an elf is to bury it under a tree. Its soul will become an elf that dances around the fountain of life...

But Roy immediately discovered another thing. This skeleton didn't seem to be the skeleton of an elf. Its skeleton was slightly thicker, especially some of the joints were thicker, and the shape of the skull was also obviously different. Roy thought that this body was probably a human.

He looked at the wall. There was actually a shallow groove here. It looked like it was chiseled out with a hammer.

Roy got closer and saw a line of text left on the wall. Unfortunately, he couldn't understand a word of it. Although Roy didn't know what was written on it, he could confirm that the text was in the language of the Green Empire.

Roy thought that the words engraved on the stone wall might be an epitaph. The bottom line should be the year, month and day.

Roy didn't touch the bones of the temple priest. Instead, he took the Holy Light Prayer Book from his hand and turned the pages. The parchment pages were well preserved.

The text inside was still in the Green Empire language, the handwriting was very neat, and even some divine patterns were drawn. Roy was very familiar with some of the divine patterns in it. When he turned to the back, he had basically never seen those divine patterns.

When flipping through the prayer book, a letter fell out of the pages.

Roy picked it up. It was an unfinished letter. The handwriting was very neat, but the letter was only halfway written and stopped.

Roy felt that the great swordsman Alvin was knowledgeable and might know these Green Empire words.

In addition to this half-finished letter, there was also a scroll in the prayer book. Roy took a quick look and found that the lines drawn on the scroll might be the path that the temple priest had taken in the dark land.

Roy picked it up and held it in his hand.

Roy spread the priest's robe and hat in the stone trough, and then placed the bones one by one. After placing them, he covered them with a piece of linen cloth, grabbed a few handfuls of gold coins from the side, and pressed them on the linen cloth.

After moving the priest's bones away and lifting the priest's robe, Roy found that there was a piece of white jade bone emitting holy light under the priest's buttocks.

This bone looked like the size of a pillow, white as jade, and was just covered by the priest's robe. At first, Roy really didn't notice it...

This bone was white as jade, and it exuded a strong holy light power.

Roy thought it was also something that the temple priest carried with him, so he prepared to take it to the stone trough and place it as a burial object for the temple priest.

But when Roy stretched out his hand and wiped the white jade bone, the powerful holy light power broke through the finger bones, like a holy light needle directly rushed into Roy's brain.

What rushed into Roy's mind was a trace of divine thought...

When it entered Roy's mind, Roy instantly seemed to fall into a temple full of holy light.

He stood in the middle of the temple, and the skylights around him revealed the strongest holy light. Those holy lights were extremely dazzling, and in the midst of these dazzling holy lights, an angel with pure wings behind him appeared directly in front of Roy. .

This pure winged angel was more than ten meters tall. He stopped in front of Roy, and then used a special way to transmit his voice into Roy's ears:

‘O devout believer! The holy light of the Statue of Liberty has been shining on you, allowing your soul to be purified in the holy light. Now, it is time for you to dedicate your body, open your heart, and accept... believers! Do you want to abandon your faith? ’

The originally sacred and solemn archangel showed a ferocious and panic expression in front of Roy.

Roy raised his head and faced the angel in front of him. The divine thought in his mind conveyed a message:

‘I’m not your believer, why should I accept your divine thoughts? ’

That ray of spiritual thought lingered in Roy's mind, but it could never occupy Roy's body. It asked Roy hysterically:

‘You are not my believer, how can you still become a priest? ’

A ray of spiritual thought tried to escape back into the phalanges, but the pillow-sized phalanges turned into rich holy light.

Roy stood there bathing in the holy light, and the pillow-like phalanges disappeared in his arms.

A trace of spiritual thought quickly disappeared...

Then a flash of holy light appeared on the sacred scepter on Roy's waist, and it subsided in the blink of an eye.

Roy was shocked when he saw the white jade bone disappearing in his hand.

But then he discovered that the white jade bone had turned into a small finger bone, appearing directly on his right thumb...

At the same time, the wall of holy light in the cave also disappeared.

The sacred aura in the cave quickly dissipated...

The prayer book in his hand fell to the ground. Roy looked down and then bent down to pick it up.

Just as Roy was bending down, the Book of Judgment hanging on his waist kept shaking, and the copper cover happened to be rubbed very smooth in one place.

Through the image reflected by the smooth bronze mirror, Roy saw the great swordsman Alvin slowly approaching from behind him...

Roy originally wanted to straighten up and ask the great swordsman Alvin how he walked in.

At this moment, Roy saw a ferocious face emerge from the reflection of the smoothest area of ​​the Book of Judgment.

Roy was so frightened that all the pores in his body opened.

Completely unprepared, Roy was horrified and quickly raised the Book of Judgment, trying to block the crystal sword struck down by Alvin the Great Swordsman.

Roy once saw the great swordsman Alvin cut off a dark scythe with his crystal sword, so his book of judgment may not be able to block the sharp crystal sword. He did this action of raising the book of judgment to block, just subconsciously. actions here.

The crystal sword in Great Swordsman Alvin's hand fell on the copper cover of the Book of Judgment like a ghost. To the crystal sword here, the copper cover was as fragile as melted cheese...

But the moment the crystal sword touched the Book of Judgment, a shadow arrow flew out of the cave and hit the great swordsman Alvin's wrist...
