goddess of revolution

Chapter 34 Dungeon, indescribable terror

"Mr. Sardar, thank you for stopping me before. I was really too restless at that time, and I almost caused big trouble for myself and everyone."

"At that time? Oh, oh, I think the ruling paladin is right, you really need the young master's training, so I pat you on the shoulder and let you get ready."

"...Shut up! You need training!"

"I have already trained myself..."

Tina and Sardar muttered behind Li Qi, alleviating his anxiety.

At this moment, the three of them are in a temporary team. It is said that it is a team, but there are still 30 people, a bit like a boy group to push the boss.

Team leader Sylvie, the ruling paladin of the Hadran branch of the loyal court, this title means that she is at least the sixth level.Li Qi was very glad that he didn't turn against her before, she could crush him to death with a little finger.

The entire team was temporarily selected by Sylvie, and the one who was closest to her in terms of status and strength was the Cardinal Priest of the Holy Court, Reverend Cam Fandre, a benevolent old priest.

Fifth-level paladin Rowling, Sylvie's deputy, a middle-aged woman who is more indifferent and rigid than Sylvie.

Another fifth-level paladin is Antos, the deputy head of the Kem Temple Knights. He is a tall, handsome, sunny man who makes Li Qi feel a little worried about his development.

The rest of the people were either the attendants of these four big men, or they were the same as Li Qi, the young men who were temporarily pulled on the scene, of course, their ranks were much higher than Li Qi.

The team descended from the huge burrow in the city hall to an estimated depth of hundreds of meters, searching for the gods in the ruins.

Corruption gas is ejected from this burrow. Although the concentration is not as high as it was at the beginning, it still has a strong corrosive effect on extraordinary power and mortal souls.

Li Qi is the lowest-level priest in the team, and his task is to release the thorns in the hearts of everyone and resist the erosion of the soul by the corrupting air.

At first he didn't quite understand the significance of this task, isn't there a barrier of holy light?
Van der took good care of Li Qi and stayed with Li Qi all the time. He explained that the corruption is actually a double influence.The barrier of holy light can only resist the erosion of the extraordinary power by the corrupting air, and the corruption of the soul can only rely on spiritual magic.

Although divine spells such as Holy Light Will and Fortitude can also protect the mind, most of the power must be used to fight against the first influence, and it is most appropriate to entrust the protection of the mind to Li Qi.

The self-confidence on Fandre's face was as firm as the holy light: "The clergymen who are loyal to the court have clean and flawless souls, and the power of their hearts is also very strong, so they will not be easily affected by corruption. I appreciate the Viscount's willingness to go deep into the dangerous situation Your determination, but protecting yourself and your attendants is your greatest achievement."

Antos, who was checking the situation of the guards, passed by here, heard what Fandel said, and added: "So unlike other professionals, we need to bring various potions or holy water when entering the dungeon."

Of course, the team is full of clerics from the camp of good gods, and the team dares to break in directly because they have magic spells such as healing and protection from evil.If it were an ordinary adventurer, it would take at least half a day to prepare.

Li Qi realized the reality, he was actually a crowbar in the trunk...

He was very speechless again, why did he volunteer, he was obviously volunteered, okay?
Anyway, it's a good thing to be looked down upon by others, and you won't be burdened with unbearable burdens.

Not long after, the tunnel drilled by the druid's drilling beetle was completed, and behind a destroyed stone wall, the outline of the artificial building was revealed.

The Origin Stone lamp illuminated the surrounding environment in detail, and the intact part of the stone wall had strange carvings, which were very close to hieroglyphs. Li Qi could barely distinguish things like birds, skulls, and sickles.

"Reaper Hierro!"

"This is the temple of Hierro!"

A priest exclaimed, and the team was in an uproar.

Hierro, god of death, is a deity of the third age.A single word "death" can tell how powerful this god is.

The priests debated, the biggest question is, since it is the Temple of the God of Death, how can there be corruption?

After the fall of Jero, his priesthood was divided among several gods in the Fourth Era.Ms. Ye divided the deaths related to darkness, and evil gods such as the God of Slaughter, the God of Crime, and the God of Terror all had their share.

The current Lord of Death can be regarded as the successor of the previous Death God. He only holds the priesthood of funeral and death, and is responsible for sending the souls of normal deaths into the River Styx. He is no longer a powerful god.

Li Qi understood why they were arguing. According to the church, the reason why the fallen gods appeared corrupt was because there was no follow-up to the priesthood, but there were still people in the mortal world who believed in them, and the distorted divine power could not be accepted by the existing gods.

Since the god of death has a successor to the god of death, there will be no corruption.There must be hidden secrets hidden in this shrine of the god of death.

Obviously, they don't know, or don't agree with the Fallen Angel's statement.

"Stop arguing! Regardless of whether this is reasonable or not, the corruption is obvious!"

Sylvie said impatiently: "Our task is to find the gods and purify them, not to study the academic issues of god replacement!"

She glanced at everyone, her tone became more serious: "Be vigilant! Our enemy is not only corruption, but also the defense measures left by the temple. The culprit who caused this disaster must be waiting for us!"

Are you talking about the king's man?

Now Li Qi somewhat believed the countess' warning, the king was really plotting some big conspiracy, and this time he was going to the fetish of the fallen god.

Sylvie's status is extraordinary, once she opened her mouth, no one dared to speak more.

As soon as the team entered the temple, the battle broke out.

The skeleton with faint red light in its eye sockets rushed out of the darkness wielding a rusted and tattered weapon, and then evaporated a faint black smoke in the holy light, disintegrating into a pile of decayed bones.

The corruption of the fallen gods is enough to turn mortals into living corpses. These temple martyrs who should have died for thousands of years have not escaped the fate of turning into monsters such as skeletons or ghouls.

Li Qi was taken aback at first, but seeing that the skeleton soldiers couldn't even break through the holy light barrier, his heart settled down.

As the team deepened, the quality and quantity of monsters also continued to increase, and the effect of the holy light barrier was no longer obvious.The team didn't panic at all, but the attendants seemed very excited, they finally had a place to use their skills.

Paladins and knights hold shields and wield long swords, cutting off the heads of skeletons and zombies neatly.The priest swung a mace and smashed the corpses into several pieces.The holy light of different colors soaked into the monster's body following the attack, and evaporated clouds of black smoke.

The intensity of the battle is gradually increasing, but overall, the team is in a crushing state.Even Sardar and Tina couldn't help but strike, and Li Qi also used a hammer and a straw sandal shield to knock down several skeletons, causing many people to look sideways at him.

It's not that he's robbing monsters, but the shape of his Holy Light Shield is really weird.

Walking and fighting all the way, gradually even Li Qi felt a hearty pleasure, feeling so full of divine power that he could rival a god and a demon.

This doesn't feel right...

Sylvie said, "I don't feel right..."

Fandre looked at the Holy Light Barrier, and said anxiously: "It's really wrong! Fighting will accelerate the erosion of the soul by the corrupting air!"

"Viscount Prior!"

He greeted Li Qi: "Bless everyone with a magic spell to protect the mind!"

Sylvie also said: "Everyone, try not to use divine arts! Only use normal attacks!"

Let the crowbar play so soon?
Li Qi was a little worried, but he still did his best to give everyone a spiritual thorn.His priest level is not enough, and the group mind thorns are too difficult to use.

Adding buffs one by one, Li Qi felt that he became a paladin in the [-]th level of "The World of Beasts".

Adding to a low-level paladin behind him, the other party took a step back, pointing the tip of his sword at Li Qi, and said in horror: "What are you going to do to me!?"

Li Qi thought that the other party didn't understand the effect of thorns, so Sardar stood in front of him and said in a low voice, "There's something wrong with this guy."

Antos went to pull the paladin: "John, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't touch me! You are all illusions! The illusion of the devil!"

The paladin jumped out of the barrier of holy light and screamed: "I will not let you defile my soul! Protecting my soul is above all else! No matter what the price is!"

Hmm... this line sounds familiar.

"John, have you been corrupted? Our soul belongs to the Lord Kem, this is not what a paladin should say!"

Antos' breathing was cloudy, with messy looks in his eyes, he raised his sword and pointed at John: "It's a pity, your will shouldn't be so weak!"

Li Qi's heart trembled, he didn't even ask about the specific situation, and he didn't even want to make any efforts to save him, so he wanted to do it?

Looking at the other people, they also looked like they were facing a formidable enemy. Does Li Qi feel that their psychological pressure is too much?
Li Qi used all his strength to give John a spiritual thorn.

The cold white holy light soaked into his body, and the paladin knelt down on the ground, holding his chest and panting for a while, and then showed a blank expression: "You... what are you looking at me for?"

The effect of the thorns in the mind really wasn't a cover, not only Anthos, but everyone else, including Sivir and Van der, looked at Li Qi differently.

Then he was placed in the middle of the team.

Sardar said, "I'm fine..."

Tina shrugged: "No problem, these masters are too delicate, this is the first time you have entered the dungeon?"

Knowing that he was going to be "reused", Li Qi was a little worried about the two attendants, and he was relieved by the answer, although... there was something wrong with these two guys.

The team continued to move forward, and the barrier of holy light was much dimmer than before.When encountering monsters, people did not dare to use divine arts anymore, but used weapons and physical strength to eliminate them, and the speed slowed down a lot.

Entering the deep hall of the temple, the situation seemed to be even worse. Li Qi saw some people started to grab their crotch and some people scratched their buttocks.

Antos leaned over and said hoarsely, "Your Excellency, Viscount, please treat me."

The face of the high-ranking paladin made Li Qi almost cry out, and scarlet pustules burst out everywhere on it.

Seeing his other hand scratching his crotch vigorously, Li Qi secretly gasped, this must be syphilis! ?
The heart thorn made Anthos feel better, but the abscess on his body did not completely dissipate.He used another healing technique himself, but it didn't help.

He cursed: "This damned corruption!"

Li Qi was a little worried. Could it be that the corrupt air could infect various diseases?
The monsters reappeared, this time zombies.

The paladin named John suddenly rushed out of the crowd, hugged a zombie, opened his mouth and gnawed on the other's mouth that was dripping with green saliva.

At that moment, Li Qi felt like a grandson jumped into his stomach.

"John! What are you doing!?"

Antos rushed over and kicked John down, and cut off the zombie's head with a single sword.

A paladin next to him caught the zombie's body and knelt down skillfully on the ground.

Antos squinted: "Damn it, Mike——!"

The paladin eagerly pulled open his crotch, pressed against the zombie's back and shook it vigorously.

Fandre shouted: "Your Excellency the Viscount!"

I think...it's hopeless at this point.

Li Qi vaguely guessed that this was not a disease brought about by corruption, but a manifestation of a corrupted soul.

No matter how devout a believer is, there will be some physical and psychological diseases. In the past, because of the presence of divine power, they could be suppressed, but they have not really been eradicated.Now being eroded by corrupt divine power, the most paranoid and perverted diseases will be induced first.

Two holy lights swept across the necks of John and Mike like flying swords, and the heads of the two jumped up from the necks. Black smoke was clearly visible in the splashed blood.

Sivir withdrew his sword and said coldly: "Their souls have been corrupted, and there is no point in saving them!"

The team was in an uproar, and the situation suddenly deteriorated...
