Age of Mysticism Chapter 438

  Chapter 438 Sacrifice

  In recent years, it has been really eventful for the Temple of the Abyss. Four abyssal apostles died, and inside the temple there are insiders who provide information to outsiders. Mutual suspicion prevented the three apostles from being as close as before. There was turmoil in the temple, and a large number of abyss mages were sent to prison or executed.

  In the war against the empire, the Abyss Temple, which was restrained by internal problems, did not play its due role. The defeat on the battlefield made the Celtic Duke no longer rely on the Abyss Temple as much as before.

  Providing blood-sworn barbarians for the barbarian army is one of the places where the abyss temple can still reflect its own value.

  Who would have thought that storm barbarians would appear at this time.

  If the Celtic Duke obtains this barbarian transformation technology, the Temple of the Abyss will lose an important bargaining chip with the Celtic Duke.

   Therefore, the Temple of the Abyss must exclusively enjoy the transformation technology of the storm barbarians.

Facing Victor who was still aggressive, Luke replied: "Apostle Victor, if the Temple of the Abyss exclusively enjoys the Storm Barbarian technology, you will definitely kill me. Even if you don't kill me now, after tomorrow's game, you will do it.

   But selling this technology to the Celtic Duke is different. The storm barbarians need to choose from the barbarians, and the Tedgar hills are the place where the barbarians are most concentrated.

  The technical leak will not cause too much loss to the Duke. After I complete the transaction, I can safely leave the Tedgar Hills. "

   Being rejected relentlessly again, Victor's red eyes burst out with murderous aura.

"Do you think that the Temple of the Abyss will let you go if you leave the Tedgar Hills? Give me the storm barbarian transformation technology, and promise not to leak it to anyone. In the name of the first apostle, I promise that the Temple will never threaten your safety."

Luke shook his head and smiled: "If this sentence is said to someone who doesn't know the Abyss Temple, he may believe the promise of the first apostle. But I was invited by Egbert priest to join the temple to accept the power given by the abyss. , Now I have a certain understanding of the situation inside the temple.

  Even Priest Egbert worried about his safety for a while, how can you guarantee my safety? "

  Victor looked at Priest Egbert standing aside.

Egbert immediately bent down, and replied in a very humble manner with fear: "Master Apostle, I owe Mr. Luke a large sum of money for the egg of Nirvana, so I want to take him to welcome the abyss as compensation. This I asked you for instructions on this matter, and got your permission."

  Victor didn't say anything to Egbert, but instead said to Luke in a calm tone: "The Temple of the Abyss has always been open to the outside world, and we welcome anyone to join, and anyone to embrace the Abyss.

  After we welcome the abyss together, we will all be servants of the abyss.

   If the Duke of Celtic asks you for the storm barbarian modification technology tomorrow, can you delay this transaction for two days? "

   Luke asked, "Why?"

  Victor Apostle replied: "The abyss is very close to us, and it will come in the next two days. I believe that after you embrace the abyss and accept the power bestowed by the abyss, you will definitely stand firmly on the side of the temple.

  Because we are all servants of God and share a common belief. "

   The crack in the abyss is finally about to be opened by them.

Luke pretended to think about it, and said: "Well, anyway, this deal can't be decided in a day or two. I have always respected the abyss, and every time I enter the temple of the abyss, I can feel more and more about it. growing admiration.

  Its power exceeds our understanding of the upper limit of strength. I believe that its coming this time will definitely make me far surpass my current self. "

  Luke's words immediately eased the tense atmosphere in the room. Everyone is a believer in the abyss. Even though Luke's goal was to gain power at first, Victor, who has a deeper understanding of the abyss, knows that once he accepts the abyss, he will have unwavering faith.

  Storm barbarian transformation technology, let's talk about it after the abyss descends.

   At that time, you will definitely get a satisfactory answer.

  So Victor began to discuss magic with Luke, using the storm barbarian transformation technology as an introduction. In just a few words, Victor discovered that Luke's knowledge and depth of understanding of magic far exceeded his expectations.

   Then Victor asked Luke many other academic questions, and Luke could answer them all with unique insights. Not only learning miscellaneous, but also learning fine. Even when talking about the new steam mechanical technology, Victor was a little frightened. The current situation of the Tedgar Hills made it difficult for him to get in touch with the current top steam technology.

  In order not to be embarrassing in the academic field of steam machinery, Apostle Victor shifted the discussion to the secret technique that he was best at. As a result, Luke was able to have an almost equal discussion with him.

genius!

  Victor can only use this word to describe the young man in front of him.

   And he is not a professional academic scholar.

  He is an adventurer, and all his knowledge is learned in the spare time of adventure. What could he have accomplished if he stopped taking risks and spent more time studying and doing research?

   Fortunately, I didn't have the urge to kill him just now.

   Fortunately, he was waiting for the abyss to come.

  As long as he accepts the abyss, he will definitely dedicate his all to the abyss.

  Apostle Victor's attitude towards Luke is changing rapidly.

  After several major purges of the Abyss Temple, the loss of personnel was extremely serious. Moreover, I and the other two apostles became more and more suspicious of each other. If it weren't for the coming of the abyss that made everyone stop attacking tacitly, I really don't know what the conflict would be like when no one is willing to give in.

   Among the other two apostles, one must have colluded with Clear Sky. He let Qingkong **** the book of calamity, and killed the other abyssal apostles, wanting to enjoy the divine favor of the abyss alone!

  I will never let them succeed!

  The coming of the abyss is a division of the abyss temple, and all abyss mages will stand in line once. Whoever has more people and who has stronger people will have a chance to win in the end!

  Luke is a gift from the abyss.

   "I want to promote you as a priest of the Abyss Temple..."

   During the academic discussion, Victor suddenly said this to Luke. But without waiting for Luke to answer, Egbert objected first: "Master Victor Apostle, Luke is only a backup of an abyss mage now. To promote him to a priest is too much."

Victor is in a very good mood now, and he didn't care about Egbert's arrogance. He looked at Luke with a look of love in his eyes: "The Temple of the Abyss has never had a rule about seniority promotion, and talents are reused by me. who is the only standard.

   No matter what misunderstandings the outside world has about the temple, in my eyes, the temple is a research institution. The taboos in the world are no longer taboos here. We can study whatever we want to study, and we can use whatever materials we want.

  You are talented and wise enough to be a priest in the temple. Even... I can make you an apostle of the Abyss Temple. "

  Hearing that Victor actually tempted Luke by becoming an apostle, Egbert was extremely anxious.

  There are only four apostles for the abyss to descend this time.

  Victor grabbed two places by virtue of being the number one apostle. One was given to Egbert by default, and the second was given to another priest loyal to Victor.

  If Victor gave Luke the position of apostle, Egbert would have a half chance of being dismissed.

  But no matter how anxious Egbert was, he didn't dare to speak anymore, because he might really die.

   Can only hope Luke refuses.

  Victor waited for Luke's answer.

  Luke said: "But I like adventure, and I don't plan to stay in the temple."

  Victor believes that the influence of the abyss will change Luke's current thinking, so he said: "You can do whatever you want. The temple of the abyss is a free place."

   This time Luke thought about it seriously.

The meeting with Victor was in his expectation. He just wanted to use the storm barbarian transformation technology to provoke the relationship between the Abyss Temple and the Celtic Duke. He really didn't expect Victor to promote himself as a priest, and even become an Abyss Apostle one.

  But since it is going to destroy the abyss, of course, the higher the status in the abyss temple, the better.

   Only when you have power can you do things.

So Luke promised: "I have never refused any false positions that do not require responsibility. It may be useful one day. I also serve as the inspector general of the city's militia Wolf Brigade in the Holy Mountain. If it does not affect my On an adventure trip, I can serve as a priest of the Abyss Temple.

  It is not impossible to be an apostle of the abyss. "

  Seeing that Luke agreed, Victor was very happy. Without knowing which apostle is the inner ghost, he sees both apostles as a threat.

  The other two apostles must have thought so too.

  Since neither can be trusted, it is better to get rid of both, one of which is true.

  The situation that Apostle Victor is most afraid of now is that the other two apostles will form a temporary alliance and join forces to deal with the strongest self.

  The probability of this possibility is very high.

   Get rid of the strongest self, and the two of them can give it a go!

   So Victor seems to be the strongest, but also the weakest. He was eager to expand his strength, and he was a little hungry.

  Victor didn't have any doubts about Luke's identity.

   After all, before this meeting, he himself did not know that he would invite Luke to become a priest of the Abyss Temple, and then become an Abyss Apostle.

   It is impossible for someone to make a layout in advance.

  Luke agreed to serve as the priest of the temple, and Victor immediately asked Egbert to take Luke with him to go through the relevant procedures with his appointment letter.

   And let Egbert lead Luke around the interior of the temple, let everyone know that the new priest was appointed by the first apostle, and he is a member of the first apostle.

  At this time, Egbert had 10,000 regrets in his heart. If he had known that this would happen, he would have to get the 50 million Reichsmarks together even if he was selling everything.

   Now the position of the apostle has become a suspense, this deal is too bad!

  However, Egbert did not dare to complain, he could see that Apostle Victor loved Luke. Just listening to their discussion, I have to admit that this adventurer has real knowledge.

  Besides, he is so young, his main job is to take risks.

  The achievements made by such a genius at will may be a height that others can't reach in a lifetime of hard work.

   I can only be jealous, there is no other way.

   Egbert took the special appointment letter written by the first apostle Victor himself, and took Luke to go through the formalities of promotion to priest.

   After receiving a set of sacrificial clothes and certificates, Luke also had a set of high-level rooms inside the temple.

   Then Egbert took Luke to visit the Temple of the Abyss and told him the names and functions of the various departments of the temple. Also remind Luke who is the person of the first apostle and who is the person of the other two apostles.

   "As a priest, you can apply to the temple for funds, personnel, equipment, and laboratories to conduct your own special research.

   Here, you don't need to consider the taboos outside, any experiment is allowed. This is also the main reason why I came to the Tedgar Hills to join the temple, all ethics and morals are under the truth, this is the holy place for scholars like us..."

  Egbert told Luke excitedly, waving his hands and talking about how he dissected a living pregnant woman and replaced the baby in her womb with the twin eggs he cultivated.

He even described in detail the growth process of the twin egg in the pregnant woman's womb. It hatched into a larva, fed on the flesh and blood of the pregnant woman, used the skin of the pregnant woman as a cocoon, and finally broke out of the cocoon and turned into a beautiful woman with a head on the front and back. Ripper Butterfly.

monster!

  The people who join the Abyss Temple, except for a few who are novelty hunters, are mostly psychologically distorted monsters.

  Luke listened to Egbert proudly talk about his experiment, and looked at the abyss mages who had turned into all kinds of strange and ugly things.

  Their abyssal appearance, is it the presentation of their hearts? They have given up being human in their hearts, and they are no longer human in their bodies.

   This is no longer the Abyss Temple of the game copy, which made Luke think more.

   When he walked to a passage closely guarded by the abyss mage, Egbert terminated his experimental narration and said to Luke: "This is the prison of the temple, and all the abyss mages who betrayed the temple are detained.

   Of course not all of them are traitors, most of them are unlucky ones. "

  Luke then remembered the insider he had developed...the wizard.

  He was held there.

  Although the wizard has sent out the map of his prison location, it is still a bit difficult to rescue him safely.

  And Victor said that the abyss will fall within these two days. The rescue of the wizard must be completed before the abyss descends, the abyss weapon must be destroyed, and only the wizard knows the location of the abyss weapon.

   Time is tight and tasks are heavy, in order to accurately rescue the wizard.

  Luke felt the need to step on the spot himself to determine the location of the wizard and the interior layout of the prison.

  Luke stopped at the door of the prison and asked Egbert, "Can I go in and take a look?"

   Egbert wanted to take Luke directly across the prison, but Luke unexpectedly proposed to go inside the prison.

  He thought for a while and said, "Yes! You can take a look!"
