The Truth of Magic



330 the immortality of otherworldly creatures
“Is there a problem?” The middle-aged priest, Gotha, looked at Zhao Xu in surprise and thought that he had realized something was wrong.

no, I just suddenly thought of an old friend. Today is the day she becomes a cleric apprentice, so I suddenly felt a little emotional. zhao xu said.

when the middle-aged priest gotha heard this, he had a few thoughts in his mind.

When it came to worshipping the goddess and abiding by the doctrine, he did not dare to call himself one of the best among his peers, but he was definitely not behind. This was obvious from the fact that he was selected to join Rose Cross’s ordinary Incident Response Service Team and even became the team leader.

however, gotha also knew that if there were no other opportunities in the future, it was unlikely that he would continue to break through and reach the standard of a five-circle priest who could be sent out to become an archbishop of other churches in other areas.

it wasn’t that he wasn’t pious enough, but everyone was too.

As long as one’s brain was fine, in a world where one could witness the greatness of divine power, unless one had other abilities and channels, one would obediently kneel and serve the gods.

Even when the power of the ancient gods was not apparent, the image of gods had been created even though there were no gods.

Mages relied on the invisible magic net to obtain spell slots, so they could still be more arrogant.

As for the priests, all of their divine spells came from the goddess.

Therefore, every priest’s faith and respect for the gods were completely meticulous, without the slightest discount. This also formed an endless cycle.

Without any opportunities, it was really difficult to get the gods to pay more attention to him just by relying on the daily morning prayers and evening prayers.

And Gotha knew that sometimes, there was a way out.

For example, the mage ” Senior Inspector ” in front of him was his shortcut.

the other party’s power was enough to help him.

perhaps, this was also a hint from the other party. this was because goda had taken the initiative to ask questions throughout the entire process, and the other party had only answered.

after many thoughts flashed through his mind, gotha quickly said in a low voice, ” Mr. Inspector, I happen to be in charge of the training of trainee priests in the church.

” as long as you tell me your name, i can do my best to enlighten your old friend, as long as you don’t mind my lack of knowledge. ”

After careful consideration, Gotha still said these words with a thick skin.

“thank you for your concern, priest gotha. If there’s a need, I’ll trouble you.” When Zhao Xu heard this, he also thanked the other party politely.

It was hard for these priests to speak so politely. That enlightenment from the doctrine was actually a hint to Zhao Xu that he could help Zheng xinyun within his bottom line.

but zhao xu understood and wasn’t surprised by this sort of situation.

In the end, it was impossible for this world to be purely about killing monsters. As long as he entered this society, he would meet different people who would plead for mercy.

Other people would also flatter him and make all kinds of arrangements to cooperate with him because of his power.

in his previous life, he was only a small town’s sheriff, and he had to face the same level of political ecosystem as him.

the rogue, who understood this point, secretly laughed at his captain for finally knowing to speak. on the other hand, the paladin, who was standing on his body and holding a long sword, was still vigilant of the situation inside the door. he did not care about their discussion at all.

initially, ellington was still curious as to why the middle-aged priest would suddenly bring up this topic. after thinking for a while, he slowly understood.

This also made his heart start to beat.

if he had been sitting in class with a peace of mind like before, he would not have been able to come into contact with these things.

Just by following his mysterious homeroom teacher, he had witnessed a tragedy and come into contact with Mystra’s extraordinary power.

The Rose Cross unit, which was even more mysterious than the city guards and magic guards, was next to him and was ready to enter and explore together.

“ah!”

at this time, the wooden door that was originally closed had been pushed open by the wanderers. suddenly, the bloody scene in the hall was reflected in everyone’s eyes.

even though this small team with the code name ‘zhu kong’ had seen a lot of things, they still found it hard to accept this scene.

after taking a deep breath, ellington began to explain everything that had happened since they entered the house.

Now that Zhao Xu had a Direct Group of followers that he could command, he could save a lot of trouble and just fill in the gaps for the other party.

“Expert, follow me and take a look,” The priest goda said to the team member behind him, a strong man with a beard.

The expert pushed up the glasses on his nose and walked forward with a tool bag with a pair of pliers.

He was the only support class in the team. However, he mainly specialized in professions (doctors), professions (coroners), skills (anatomy), medical treatment, and so on.

usually, he would do his own research in the police station’s autopsy department, and sometimes he would cooperate with the investigation on the scene of a case. It just so happened that he was on duty with the team today, so he followed everyone out.

Ellington held his breath, trying to suppress the fear he once felt. He walked inside with trembling feet.

zhao xu gently pressed down on his shoulder, but ellington immediately broke free.

then he looked at zhao xu in embarrassment and said, ” sir, i can overcome it. ”

He then took another deep breath. otherwise, I wouldn’t be qualified to follow you, Sir.

the rose cross high inspector badge that zhao xu had just given him made him understand that this mage in front of him was definitely someone important in mystra, or someone important’s direct subordinate.

only such an expert could help him take revenge. he needed to prove his worth to the other party. Although he was also very touched that this gentleman could still care about him to this extent.

Zhao Xu gently interrupted his thoughts and said, ” before you can cast any spells, you’ll have to stand behind me. otherwise, i won’t be able to save you even if you die.”

hearing this ridicule, the members of the sky-chasing team who were standing guard beside him were all embarrassed, as if a crow had just flown by.

But after everyone heard Zhao Xu’s warning, they immediately focused their attention on what was going on in front of them.

everyone realized that for this inspector to not rashly explore the room, the activity inside was probably not ordinary.

the level-4 paladin took a step forward. he was wearing a shiny full-body armor, with only his joints and helmet exposed. at the same time, he had a heavy steel shield tied to his arm to block any attacks that might come from the front. his right hand was holding an exquisite longsword and confronting the void.

For the current players, they would be satisfied if they could get Paladin Equipment at Level 3 or 4. As for the rest, he would have to slowly replace the armor, weapons, and shields he was wearing with magic equipment.

By then, everyone would have to slowly climb from ” +1 ” magical equipment to ” +5 ” magical equipment.

The journey of upgrading equipment was endless.

there’s nothing unusual about them. They were hung to death and then left wounds on the bodies. The forensic expert said with a heavy expression.

This case was probably the most shocking one he had received in recent times, especially after he found out the relationship between “Peter,” who was being controlled outside, and the deceased.

there was no doubt that by tomorrow, this case would be known to all.

“what kind of ceremony is this?” The middle-aged priest walked over to Peter, who had turned into a half-purgatory creature, and asked.

The sound of water dripping that Zhao Xu had heard earlier was coming from the wounds on these corpses.

“Hmph,” he snorted. however, peter turned his head away in contempt, ignoring the question.

This made the Paladin angry. He put his sword on the man’s neck and said, “you scum who killed your parents. I will purify you sooner or later.

The Paladin still looked quite young. At this time, the veins on his wrist were bulging. If it were not for his control, he would have already cut down.

“When did you realize that you would be turned into a half-purgatory creature?” Zhao Xu suddenly asked.

However, Peter still pursed his lips and ignored his question.

“you gave up on the awakening ceremony previously and used the psychological barrier as an excuse. you probably knew that after you sat on the throne, the things that the arcane throne would reveal would expose you, right? for example, summoning a demon?” zhao xu continued to analyze the situation.

Eldon had an envious look on his face when he heard the name ” arcane throne. it was a position that all young people of age in Mystra dreamed of.

“since you were able to enter the academy and display your talent, it means that you didn’t know that you would become this half-human, half-demon form. The floating city itself is a closed system. We only need to check the candidates you came into contact with in the year you were about to awaken on the island.” zhao xu continued to analyze the situation.

at this time, peter’s expression finally changed slightly, but he still restrained himself and tried to remain calm.

and looking at your domineering expression, I’m afraid you’ve become a half-purgatory creature of your own free will. Zhao Xu tilted his head slightly and looked at the clock in the corner of the wall. The time on it was ticking away.

“Sir, other than those powerful places, are there any other half-purgatory creatures?” Ellington suddenly asked.

” oh, half-purgatory creatures are otherworldly creatures, so they will obtain the corresponding characteristics of otherworldly creatures. ” zhao xu’s thoughts started to clear up.

“One of them is eternal life.”

zhao xu’s expression suddenly changed. ” move these corpses out immediately. ”
