Chapter 155 Cause and Effect V(1/2)

Fang Zhuan stared at the light purple sky, like burnt flames gradually faded from the horizon, changing into a deep blue, and the stars flashed over the clouds, which was a rare evening in winter.

In the eyes, the curved spire of the temple, and the tall arch windows are shining with brilliant lights. On the eaves are carved with the image of monsters guarding the sea of ​​storms, one next to another, looking solemn and silent.

"Sir, the monks of Aidan Ryan should be having a group meal at this time. Only half an hour later will be their prayer time every morning and evening," Miss Nightingale's eyes reflected a faint starlight, and one hand was placed at her waist, staring in that direction.

She turned around with her eyebrows raised and looked in this direction and said, "As far as we know, the first child from the Parish of Artori will not appear at the prayer meeting. During this period, the entire church will be concentrated in the veil and quiet prayer room. This is the best time for us to capture him."

Fang Zhu took out a small piece of dried meat and bit it in his mouth, chewed it gently, and the taste was like dehydrated firewood, but he could always recover a little energy.

He knew that the pastor from the Parish of Artori would certainly not appear at the prayer meeting.

The other party wants to hide his whereabouts, preferably disappear from everyone's sight and not appear in any public place - although that is of no use to them.

"When is this?" he asked.

"It's six o'clock now, the leader."

"Six-thirty." Fang Yu said silently, and he raised his head and looked in that direction. Aidan's holy emblem stood high above the arch top. The lights of the noble area passed through several blocks and reflected in this direction, like stars reflected, and the towering steel bridge in that direction was hidden under the faint twilight and mist.

Although the Grey Knights may not necessarily participate in the quiet prayer, Alisa is right, and this is indeed their only chance.

At this moment, he saw a shadow quietly turning over from the fence outside the courtyard of the Holy Hall and falling into the dense rose bushes there. The sneaky figure was nothing but Parker.

"Ha, as expected, those guys did set some tricks," the Paparals jumped off the fence, and before they stood firm, a boasting voice had already been heard: "But this is nothing to a former Night Thieves King, just a trick."

Fang Zhu threw the crystal in his other hand over, and watched the crystal drift through an arc and land steadily on the Paparal people's hands, and then he asked a little surprised: "Magic Alert?"

"No, that's just toys. They won't use toys to guard against foreign enemies." The Paparals carelessly pointed the crystal in their hands towards the fence, and an invisible ripple hit the iron fence. The space there seemed to be twisting, as if something was shattering, but it returned to normal in a moment.

The crystal in Parker's hand also shattered and turned into a piece of dust, and disappeared with the wind. "Okay," he clapped his hands, "Without this barrier, we can all go in, but our elements make Mr. still not at home. This suppression spell can only take effect for an hour at most, and after that, the monks who arranged the spells will find an abnormality."

Fang Zhu looked at this guy with a little curiousness.

"How do you know he can do it?" He turned around and asked Alisa.

This job was originally belonged to Miss Nightingale, because logically speaking, she is the real "night thief" in their team.

"Isn't the King of Night Thieves?" Alisa smiled and replied with a clever heart: "Although there are some bragging elements, if you think about it carefully, there is actually some truth?"

"…?" Fang Yushi didn't expect that Miss Nightingale really believed in the Paparal people's nonsense.

But Alisa smiled and said, "The number of Qihai Traveler is so big, but how many people have actually caught our Mr. 'King of Night Thieves'? Whether in the kitchen or in the warehouse, he can always succeed... Hehe, if it weren't for being too stupid and always liked to leave a handle - I think Miss Aitela wouldn't have caught him a few times."

That's true-

Fang Yu had never looked at the "King of Confinement" in their team from this direction. Now it seems that the title of "King of Night Thieves" is really something.

But that's just a joke.

Alisa said again: "Compared with my sister, I am just a strengthened shadow dancer direction, good at infiltration and reconnaissance. But Parker is more familiar with the attainments in mechanisms and magic. Before coming here, I also discussed it carefully with him."

Fang Yu suddenly realized.

But one hour is enough. If they haven't found their target for a long time, it will be meaningless to stay here except to increase risks.

"What should we do next?" Alisa turned her head and looked at him, "Our leader?"

Fang Zhu looked up at the towering temple, and the towering silhouettes seemed to be deeply imprinted under the night.

"Use the path of shadow," Fang Yu replied, raising his right hand, and the arrogance of the Lone King pointed in a direction. The edge of the silver hand armor refracted a dim arc, and seemed to hesitate for a moment, but soon made up his mind: "Go to the corridor on the right."

"Wait, right corridor?"

But Alisa seemed a little surprised.

She was looking at Fang Ling with a suspicious look, which was far from the rest area of ​​the monks in the apse of the Holy Temple, but if the Patriarch of Artori was likely to be in any place in this sacred temple, then the apse was the most likely place.

However, Fang Yu had already confirmed his judgment: "Yes, it's that place."

This sacred temple is a religious building from the Lorpeer dynasty era. It adheres to the architectural style of that era. Its main body is composed of a main hall, two side halls and a back hall.

Theoretically, the apse is the place for monks to live, but if Fang Zhu put himself in the Crow Claw Temple and think about it, he would hide here and not be known to outsiders. The first thing he had to do was of course minimize contact with outsiders.

The front hall and back hall of the church are both crowded places, and the left hall often holds some daily gatherings and preachings. There are only the right hall, where there are only a few library rooms, as well as some meditation rooms and confessions that are not available for daily use.

The right and left halls are not small in size, and it is easier to hide a person in such a rarely visited area.

He talked about his ideas, but Parker obviously was not convinced - of course, the Paparals might just be just for the sake of arguments, and said, "Maybe you are right, but that doesn't mean he must be there. I don't think Miss Alisa's judgment is wrong."

"That's true," Fang Yu didn't argue with this guy this time, "but there are fewer people on the right side, and the corridor on the right is even more on the periphery of the side hall, and there are fewer people on the road. We don't need to search the entire temple, and the other party cannot be without precautions. Sometimes the precautions are also signposts for directions - since that's the case, we can give priority to safety issues."

He obviously thought it carefully, so Parker only snorted softly to express his adoption of this statement.

Fang Zhu looked at Alisa, who nodded as if he was understanding.

She immediately took off her leather gloves and walked forward, passing through the rose fence there, and then held it naked on the iron fence.

A black smoke spread out from her hands, covering the entire fence. The next moment, a crack opened in the smoke, as if a door was opened on it.

Miss Nightingale then turned around and made a gesture of inviting the two of them.

That is the path of shadow.

As Fang Zhu passed through the door, he whispered to Alisa: "Call Hongye and Saye back."

Alisa nodded gently.

Red leaves, Sha Ye, and the redeemed people were venting nearby, but now they have opened a hole, so the defenses on the outside are no longer useful.

Since Parker has lifted the outer defense in the temple courtyard, Alissa's Shadow Path straight through the courtyard area and penetrated deep into the temple.

When the square leopard passed through the door, his eyes were in front of him, and when he was about to be enlightened, he realized that he was already in a long corridor. Looking back, there was still a dark forest outside the courtyard corridor. It was in the deep winter, and there was no sound of insects around him, and there was silence.

There is actually not a corridor on the right, but it is just in the edge of the courtyard. However, the shadow dancer senses the surrounding environment through the shadow network. The power of the shadow can only distinguish between living things and non-living things, but cannot distinguish buildings.

In order to avoid accidentally teleporting people to the wall, Alissa can only use the limit of her vision as the destination for transmission. Although she is a little more conservative, it is fortunately safe.

After him, Parker and Alissa also arrived one after another, and the shadow passage lasted for a while. It was not until the Red Leaf, Sand Ye, Kong and Kwider and his group appeared from there that it suddenly disappeared and disappeared completely.

During the waiting time, Fang Yu was certainly not idle. He had already released the clockwork fairy to stroll around the hall on the right, and first built the terrain of this place in his mind.

Of course, there are certain risks in doing this. The clockwork fairy only has vision, but cannot distinguish the power of magic. There are a large number of detection spells arranged outside the temple. Once it hits, it will be discovered by the sorcerers who arranged the spells.

Compared with the reconnaissance ability, Nightingale and Ranger have meticulous observation ability, while Alchemists have powerful high-broad battlefield reconnaissance ability, but the casters have the most outstanding fixed reconnaissance ability in the entire Aitalia.

But Fang Zhu is not aimless.

The detection spells inside and outside the temple will definitely have magnitude differences. First of all, the protection is external rather than internal. The spells do not have the ability to judge and cannot distinguish those people as invaders, those people are their own people, and no one will cause trouble for themselves.

Moreover, the Holy Church is part of the gods in the mortal world. The divine power that permeates here will naturally reject other forces, including other etheric powers.

Of course, if Aidan Ryan's resurrection was just a false pretext and the owner of this temple did not exist in this era, then the so-called divine power would naturally not exist.

But from the moment Fang Zhu stepped into this sacred temple, he felt an unknown force lingering on the entire sacred temple.

He is an alchemist and is naturally sensitive to ether - although he is not a priest and cannot distinguish the nature of the divine ether, this power is obviously different from the ether of other attributes.

That feeling...

It was like an omnipresent eye, as if he was staring at them from a certain space, and that gaze came from all directions, and when he focused, the faint feeling disappeared in an instant.

He was so familiar with this feeling, it actually came from a higher dimension of gaze.

"What is that..."

Alisa obviously noticed the abnormality, frowned uncomfortably, and asked in a low voice.

Fang Zhu went to see the others, whether it was the red leaves, the sandy night, or the redeemed person, but did not show such an abnormality. They just looked around and felt that the quiet inside the corridor was a bit uncomfortable.

Although the Seven Seas Brigade and their group were obviously not ordinary, they had experienced dealing with Aimeya and the war lady Marland. They were also familiar with the methods of the Dark Saints, and had experienced them in person more than once in the underground of Fenris and in Istaniya.

But it was obviously not the reason why he and Alissa could detect this power, and others could not detect it.

Parker looked confused on the side, and the Paparals were also members of the Seven Seas Brigade.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! He also frowned and vaguely realized that this might be the reminder given to him by the three goddesses. He is a voter of Marland, and it is natural to instinctively reject other divine powers.

Alisa had the holy emblem of Ameya, which was what Miss Atira gave them before leaving and was handed over to Miss Nightingale for safekeeping.

Although Miss Elf didn't say what was the intention to do this, it might be Ms. Forest's work now.

When Fang Yu noticed this, he was slightly shocked. Of course, Marlan's divine power would not be boring so much that he could reject any power. Those insignificant natural ethers would not be placed in the heart of this lady of war.

The same is true for the goddess of the forest. The only thing they can value is divine power.

In other words, what is permeated within this sacred temple at this moment is the real divine power - Light Ether.

But who do they belong to?

Could it be that what the people in the Crow Claw Temple said is true that the Lord of the Storm, Aidan Ryan, has really returned to this world?

He did not forget that this place was Aidan's territory, the land of the former God of Orin.

But the problem is that if the other party is really Aidan Ryan, Mallan, who is also the Orin God system, Milera and Aimeya have no reason to support him in confronting the Grey Knights.

In history, Aidan Ryan has a lot of connection with Milera, the goddess of life, and can be said to be half of the latter's follower.

He didn't understand very well, but he only shook his head at Alisa.

Being looked at by divine power does not mean that the masters here have noticed them. Omniscience and omnipotence are just the good wishes of believers for the existence they respect, and the perceptions of the gods are not infinite.

But if the name is mentioned here, it may really attract the attention of the owners here.

Although that was just a rumor, it would be better to be cautious. They fought against the false gods in Istaniya and under the ground of Fenris. But on the territory of a true god, it is best to clamp their tails as humans.
To be continued...
