Chapter 349 A bad premonition
It was not just the residents of Qim Town who felt chilled.
And under the escort of the [Dark Blue] team, Master Petwain Tostin finally arrived in Ceylon City after all the hard work.
The experience along the way, if Peter Twain could describe it, was simply a bad nightmare.
At some point, Ceylon Leader turned into something completely unfamiliar to him.
The dark sky of eternal night.
From time to time, sneak attack monsters appear in the wilderness.
The condition he negotiated with the [Dark Blue] Team was that the other party would escort him and two other "second generation nobles" to Ceylon City.
During this period, their safety needs to be protected on the road.
The price is a full 4 gold coins.
It is twice as expensive as ordinary monster hunting.
Pettwain originally thought that these guys were simply taking advantage of others' danger and bullying others. After seeing this, he was anxious to return to Ceylon City to express himself and temporarily raised the price.
The other party's reluctance must have been fake.
After entering the Ceylon Territory, he became silent.
"Damn it, God of Glow, why did the Ceylon Territory become like this!"
"Where is your refuge! Where is your miracle!"
When the first level 3 monster rushed towards their flatbed carriage from the darkness, Pet Twain was so scared that she almost peed.
Level 2 and Level 3 are completely different concepts.
The size of the third-level monsters will increase significantly, and the pollution aura they emit will also increase significantly.
Not to mention him, a level 1 warrior who is neither better nor better than his inferiors.
If a level 2 professional encounters a level 3 monster when alone, he must carefully consider whether it would be more honorable to commit suicide.
At the critical moment, the members of the [Deep Blue] team must be reliable enough.
They didn't mess up their position. The captain jumped off the carriage very skillfully, held up his shield and relied on the [Shield Block] combat skill to block the impact of the third-level monster.
What followed was a series of skilled "combination skills".
The ranger throws the trap, coats the arrows with poison, and accurately shoots them into the monster's joints, restricting its movement and reducing the pressure on the shield captain.
The mage took the opportunity to chant a powerful arcane magic, and before his teammates' physical strength was exhausted, he completely smashed the monster's hideous and huge head.
The priest finished by casting the [Purify Evil] magic to remove the pollution accumulated during the battle from his teammates.
The process of purifying pollution is like barbecue. The golden glow falls on the body, making a sizzling sound, and bursts of black air are forced out from under the skin and dissipated.
Seeing with his own eyes that all the level 3 monsters were brought down with the cooperation of the [Dark Blue] team, Pet Twain breathed a sigh of relief.
You get what you pay for, no wonder these people wanted to increase the price to charge him a full 4 gold coins.
At this time, Pei Twain even felt that the territories of several churches seeking knowledge in the dark forest were now safer than the Ceylon Territory!
Not to mention the level 3 monsters within the Xiwei Territory, it is difficult to find even a level 0 monster.
After staying for a long time, sometimes I even subconsciously forget that I am in the dark forest that everyone talked about in the past.
What a rebellion against Tiangang!
The Ceylon Territory, protected by [Past Glory], is actually more dangerous than the Dark Forest!
…
Finally arrived outside Ceylon.
The refugee slums, which were once smelly and littered with garbage, are now empty.
Petwain touched his chest with lingering fear.
This time it felt like a more dangerous disaster than the monster red tide. After all, the monsters that were killing people appeared directly inside the Ceylon Territory.
Refugees are afraid of bad luck.
He made a ceremonial gesture of silence and greetings towards the refugee cave.
Several members of the [Dark Blue] team next to them suddenly looked strange.
Some even turned away a little embarrassed.
Little did Pettwain know, but they, the members of the Seeking Church, knew very well.
In fact, the refugee slums outside Ceylon were almost “emptied” due to the efforts of believers seeking knowledge. Groups of refugees were hired by them in the name of moving goods, like ants moving. After leaving the refugee camp, they never came back.
For these landless refugees outside the city, the multiple-choice questions are not difficult at all.
If you stay in a refugee camp without enough food, clothing or anything else, your health will get worse and worse.
A new territory, a new life, just the fact that they can provide food and clothing is enough to attract them.
In order to increase their persuasiveness, believers basically bring back the previous batch of recruited refugees and let them give their personal testimony.
Passed from person to person, from person to person.
The Glow God Religion's relief activities in the refugee settlements are carried out regularly, only once a month.
In August, not many refugees had been taken away;
The relief activities in September, the month of the hunt, had not even started yet, but the refugee shelters had almost been emptied!
…
"Your Excellency Tostin, as agreed, I will take you to the gate of Ceylon City, and our commission will be over."
The middle-aged captain of the Deep Blue Team said seriously.
Pet Twain glanced at the unguarded city gate not far away.
There are no familiar town checks.
There is no reassuring light.
The entire city of Ceylon seems to have turned into a monster that chooses people to eat, waiting for him to fall into his trap.
Pet Twain felt a little guilty.
He hesitated and tried:
"Well...how about you guys...take a few more steps and send me to the Tostin family's manor?"
"I can give you more money!"
However, his request was decisively rejected by the other party.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Tostin."
"We have received...the Lord's decree." The middle-aged captain of the Deep Blue Team pointed upward with his index finger, signaling the existence of the God of Knowledge.
"Before the danger level in Ceylon City has completely reduced."
"We're not going in."
"It has taken us a lot of time to get you here. This is because we had a happy cooperation before."
Pet Twain looked sad.
He actually wanted to complain.
Who is this god of knowledge, and how can he still give oracles to his followers about everything?
His main belief is the God of Radiance. Of course, it is pure belief and does not receive blessings in response.
He had never received the will of the God of Radiance, or any other god.
The [Dark Blue] team does not intend to enter Ceylon City, indicating that the danger level in the city is very high.
When Pet Twain heard this, he immediately wanted to back down.
He originally wanted to return to Ceylon City and show off his talents in front of his father, the Countess, and Miss Nicole.
The Ceylon City he envisioned should at least be able to maintain normal operations and keep all the monsters in the wilderness outside the city.
What's going on with this current situation where the city gates are wide open and the defense is empty!
Where is the countess? What about the Crusaders? What about aristocratic professionals?
Could it be that he came back too late? The place has been invaded by monsters!
Pet Twain had an inexplicable premonition.
The situation in Ceylon City may be very bad!
Soon, the premonition turned into reality.
…
There are 2 more updates!
