Benjamin glanced at Lucien, and walked slowly towards the ruins of the witch's hut with a characteristic graceful rhythm, his voice low and soothing: "Evil wizards always like to play with the hearts and minds of good people, especially on this night when the silver moon shines, but that witch has not yet received the truly terrifying evil power, and her magic can often only affect one or two people. ” Lucien listened in a daze, and it wasn't until Benjamin finished speaking that he understood why he was the only one who heard the crying, while the nearby residents were still asleep, and even if they were woken up and listened carefully, they would not have gained anything.

Without giving Lucien a chance to speak, Benjamin stretched out his white-gloved hands and continued, "And I and the four church guards have the Lord's favor, so we can hear this evil voice. ” The four guards walking in front and back, when they heard this, immediately drew a cross on their chests and shouted in unison: "But the truth endures."

With this chanting, their spirits became slightly excited.

The slum dwellers, who watched from afar, also whispered a prayer: "Only the truth will remain." ” Then they whispered, "This is the power of the gods, worthy of the honorable priest." ” In the faint sound of praise, Benjamin's face with a distinctive arc became more serious and solemn, and he slowly opened his hands with white gloves, and uttered a strange short syllable in a low voice: "Paso."

As soon as the short and rapid syllables ended, the entire ruins of the hut were covered with a faint white light, like a silver moon in the sky shedding bursts of light.

In the white light, a strange blood-red color emerged on a broken wall connecting the ruins to Lucien's house, the shape of a hole.

Under the influence of this mysterious and strange spell and magic effect, Lucien was just as shocked as the poor people around him, and his mood fluctuated, but they were more intoxicated and afraid, and Lucien was afraid mixed with deep yearning.

Benjamin put away his hands and gave an order to the guard in front of him: "Gary, that's the secret door, there is no magic trap, you go and open it." ” Gary's chest thrust, and the chain mail on his body made a clanging sound of iron plates: "Yes, Lord Benjamin." ” As Gary and another guard walked by, Lucien, who was on the tip of his ear, heard Benjamin curse in a low voice: "Those megalomaniacs in the Inquisition, just by using magic traps, can't they learn to detect secret doors, because they are just magic apprentices, are they so lazy?"

With the magic instructions, Gary showed off his powerful muscles, and in two or three clicks, he broke the broken wall.

Then, another guard drew his sword and slammed it down with a roar, smashing a mechanism into pieces, revealing the black hole in the corner.

The entrance to the cave was not large, it could only accommodate one person, and the wind blew, bringing a foul smell from the mouth of the cave, Benjamin frowned slightly, and covered his nose and mouth with his right hand with white gloves, while Lucien was almost sick to his stomach and unconsciously took two steps back.

Gary took a closer look inside the cave and ran over, "Lord Benjamin, this secret passage leads to the sewer. ” Benjamin looked at Gary with a frowning golden brow, his mouth and nose seemed to be a little deformed, and his voice became muffled: "OK" "Yes, if you look down diagonally, you can see a section of sewers."

Gary replied in the affirmative.

Benjamin didn't speak, as a noble and elegant priest, as a member of the glorious Lafati family that has been inherited for many years, he felt uncomfortable at the thought of the filth and stench in the sewers, and among the several magic techniques that he had mastered the divine structure and constructed the imprint model in his soul, there was no "purification technique", and if he wanted to cast it, he had to rely on spells, gestures and spellcasting materials, and no one knew where the secret room was in the sewers, and it would take several purification techniques to go all the way.

"Anyway, it's just a magic apprentice, holding the Sacred Emblem of Truth, so there is no problem."

Benjamin thought unconcernedly, then he looked at Lucien, let go of his right hand, and his voice became majestic and softened again: "You must be in the company of the witch, and you must be contaminated with evil power in your body, and you need atonement for your sins before you can wash them away, but your devotion to the Lord has touched me, and I lend you my holy emblem, once you can purify the power left by the evil witch, you can regain the favor of the Lord."

Go, Lucien, do things for the Lord, and the eyes of the Lord will be upon you. ” After running to the church smoothly and luring Benjamin, Gary and others over, Lucien's mood relaxed a lot, there are priests and guards, it shouldn't be difficult to get rid of ghosts and ghosts, and no matter how difficult it is, it won't be his turn to be an ordinary person whose body has just recovered, so when he heard Benjamin's words at this time, Lucian's mind immediately buzzed: "He actually asked me to purify the ghosts, I'm just an ordinary person."

Seeing that Lucian's face was full of surprise and resistance, Benjamin asked calmly and kindly, "You, don't want to" Without the slightest malice, Lucien shuddered, came to his senses, if he answered unwillingly, he might immediately become a corpse, and agreed, listening to Benjamin's meaning, it seems that he also intends to lend himself the Holy Emblem, and most of the guards will follow two or three, to deal with the mutilated resentful spirit left by a magic apprentice that Benjamin doesn't pay much attention to, the danger should not be too great Whether Benjamin really didn't want to go down because he hated the filthy sewers, or had other ideas, it didn't do him any good to mess up this seemingly simple thing.

Suppressing the hatred in his heart, Lucien replied with a very stiff smile, "I am willing to serve the Lord." ” Benjamin didn't take Lucian's stiffness to heart, took off the emblem amulet around his neck with his right hand, and handed it to Lucian: "This is the emblem of truth, I will apply a blessing spell on you later, with it, you can concentrate more easily, and then cooperate with the spell and use the spirit and fingers to rub the communication emblem, you can stimulate the power of the Lord contained in it." ” After Lucien suppressed his emotions, he was filled with curiosity about this holy emblem that could perform divine magic.

Around the cross, in the deep gold, there are many horizontal and vertical lines and circles, triangles, squares, rectangles and other patterns, which are strangely connected together, setting off the cross, which looks mysterious and solemn.

Holding the emblem in his hand, Lucien immediately felt a warm and gentle power coming from his body, soaking his whole body, even in the face of the cool breeze in the middle of the night, it was as warm as the sun.

"There are two informal divine spells in the Holy Emblem: Light Technique and Healing Minor Injuries, which can be used three times a day, and three first-order divine arts: Holy Light Shield, Radiant Sword, and Holy Light Strike, all of which can only be used once a day, okay, you can hear their spells clearly."

Lucien had no way to retreat and had to go down, so the power of magic was extremely important to him, and he studied the incantations taught by Benjamin.

The incantations were all short syllables, but the intonation changes were extremely awkward, and it took a lot of effort for Lucien to barely make mistakes.

Benjamin nodded imperceptibly, his right hand outstretched.

This time there was no incantation, and a white light enveloped Lucian's body, slowly dissipating, making Lucian feel that his body was full of strength, unprecedented health, and at the same time, his mind was focused and sharp, and he could hear the voice in the distance clearly.

"The priest actually let Lucien go down and gave him the emblem."

"Didn't you hear it, it's the kindness of the priest, let Lucien go down and wash away the sins on his body."

"Praise the Lord, praise the pastor."

Lucien didn't have much common sense about this world, so after receiving the "Blessing Technique", he waited quietly for Benjamin to perform the "Blessing Technique" for Gary and the other two guards.

Every time Benjamin casts the Blessing Spell, there is an interval of about two to three seconds.

After doing all this, Benjamin looked at Lucien and the others: "Paul is guarding the entrance of the secret passage, Gary, Hausen, Correa, the three of you, go down with Lucien." ” Then his expression became serious, and he drew a cross on his chest: "May the glory of the Lord bless you." ” "Only the Truth Remains" Gary and the other three guards looked a little excited, and replied loudly, Lucien was half a beat slower, and replied no, not answered.

Fortunately, Benjamin didn't care about this, and watched the four of them slowly walk into the secret passage that connected to the sewer.

Another guard, Paul, lowered his voice, asked a long-doubted question: "Lord Benjamin, why him" There are incantations, there are emblems, and he and Gary and other guards can also activate the magic inside, but every time it is activated, it is a little slower than the priests such as Lord Benjamin, the probationary priests, or those evil magicians, but even so, it is better than the kid who can't do anything, and even the body has not been formally and completely exercised, Lord Benjamin is unwilling to go down, and he can give the holy emblem to Gary, Hausen or Correa.

Benjamin looked at the entrance of the secret passage, covering his nose and mouth with his right hand, and his voice was low and slight: "His spiritual power is slightly higher than that of a normal person, and he can better stimulate the magic in the Holy Emblem." ” "But I'm too old to be worth cultivating."

As soon as he entered the secret passage, the stench mixed with countless smells greeted him, and Lucien couldn't help but retch twice.

"You boy who lives in Adjan is so uncomfortable with the smell of sewers, it seems that you are not as poor as I imagined, whether it is the City of Chant or Antiphreux, the sewers are full of real poor people who don't even have shabby houses," said Correa, who entered the secret passage in front of Lucien, sarcastically, with black hair, a silhouette different from that of Gary and Benjamin, with high cheekbones and thin cheeks.

Before Lucien could answer, Gary, who came in with him, said directly, "Quiet." ” Correa shrugged her shoulders, closed her mouth, and took a few steps through the one-man tall passage before jumping out of the sewers that led in all directions.

Lucien jumped out of the way, stomping on something slippery and slippery.

These things are everywhere, and the surrounding walls are covered in strange mosses that glow faintly, keeping the entire sewer from being completely dark.

Gary lowered his voice: "I, Hausen, and Correa are all high-level knight squires, you should pay attention to cooperation when using the Holy Emblem, and when you encounter danger, you will immediately summon the Sword of Radiance."

"He has a golden beard, but his every move is very calm, which makes people feel reassured, and among the four guards, he is faintly dominant.

With that, Gary held the sword in his right hand and a small round shield in his left hand, beckoning Hausen, Correa, and Lucien, looking for the place where the ghost's cry came from.

Lucian, who had no common sense, followed with a smile: "How do I know what kind of strength a high-level knight squire should have" But this kind of thing, Lucian didn't dare to ask Gary directly.

The miserable, desolate cry echoed more and more in the narrow environment of the sewers, and seemed to come from all directions, and it was difficult to distinguish the exact location.

But the guards such as Gary, who had undergone special training, as well as Lucien, who had a good mental strength, easily discerned the direction with the blessing of the "Blessing Technique".

This section of the sewer was frighteningly quiet, and there was not a single poor person in sight of Correa, who lived in the sewers.

After a few forks, Lucien and the others stopped at the corner of a sewer that didn't look out of the ordinary.

Gary looked at the cyan moss-covered walls and said to Lucien calmly and solemnly, "Summon the Sword of Radiance." ” Lucien was both scared and eager to try, with the help of the blessing technique, calmed down, focused his spirit on the emblem, felt the warm and moist power, and then held the emblem hanging around his neck with his left hand, and gently rubbed the white cross in the center of the emblem rhythmically, and while rubbing, he recited a mantra with a strange tone: "Chision."

Lucien only felt that the spirit he concentrated on the Holy Emblem seemed to be infected by bursts of white light, and a little bit of white light appeared in front of him, gathered together, and formed a shining lightsaber.

"This is my voice" inspired the voice of the magic, and the strange and awkward tone, under the power and effect of the magic, appeared low and hoarse, mysterious and eerie, and made Lucien himself startled.

Holding the lightsaber and feeling the extraordinary power, Lucien couldn't help but feel excited, but Gary's words immediately made Lucien sober up: "Where the wall is split, there is the power of the glorious sword, and any magic traps have been broken."

It's just a magic apprentice. ” Looking at the position indicated by Gary, Lucien trembled slightly, he would face a mysterious and powerful magical force, what would appear, what danger would be, all unknown.

"Timid and uninformed."

Correa sneered.

Lucien understood that he could only bite the bullet, so he took two deep breaths, and the terrible stench made Lucian slowly calm down, and he gritted his teeth and shouted in his heart: "It's just death" The sword of brilliance in his right hand slashed out, slashing at the slippery and disgusting wall.

A flash of white light shone brightly, and the stone was like soft clay, unstoppable.

At the same time that Lucien slashed it, it seemed that he also cut through some strange things, and there was an inexplicable sense of brokenness, and a faint black gas quickly disappeared under the blade of the Sword of Radiance.

The entire wall collapsed completely.

Within the walls, there was a deep darkness.

Suddenly, two eerie, indifferent, and hideous reds lit up in the darkness.

Such two points of red, more and more, densely, filled the entire darkness.

Lucien's mouth was dry, his spirit was broken, and his palms were sweaty, which seemed to be a pair of eyes:
