Chapter 163 Are you looking for me?
Night falls.
The temple knights guarding the teleportation magic circle room searched for a whole day but could not find the missing Andrew and others.
Logically speaking, Andrew must have returned with the delegation members, but why can't we find him?
The Paladins cannot stay here forever; their duty is to guard the temple.
However, the two paladins left an order before they left: "Send someone to stay here and be alert to someone secretly using the magic circle at night! As for the others , go back first and continue the search tomorrow!"
In any case, we have to keep an eye on the teleportation magic room for a while, and at the same time send people to set up defenses and checks at the city gate. We must catch Andrew!
In the entire Thorn Flower Magic Academy, apart from the dean, Andrew also has a very high reputation and strong appeal in the magic academy.
The Temple of Light, which claims to be just and great, cannot easily find an excuse to kill all the teachers and students of the Magic Academy. Even the charge of colluding with the undead is not enough. After all, the Thorn Flower Magic Academy has a very high status in the Esk Continent. But the Temple of Light can capture the most important senior officials in the Magic Academy!
Therefore, Andrew's whereabouts must be found!
"yes."
The Knights Templar nodded one after another, and their captains began to assign tasks.
One team stayed behind to continue secretly supervising, while the others went back to rest temporarily. The Temple Knights were also human beings, and even the most powerful fighting warriors had to sleep and eat.
As Knights Templar, their residence is naturally the Temple of Light.
But some high-level temple members and warriors can live outside the temple because they have their own families.
Only some nuns with special identities cannot get married. Other members of the temple have no such taboo. Instead, the temple master and high priests will encourage temple members to marry freely, but they will force their families to believe in the God of Light as well.
This is a means of spreading faith, using the family as a medium to consolidate the foundation of faith and expand the number of believers.
A captain of the Temple Knights led his team back to the temple. After a while, he walked out of the temple and walked alone on the dark street.
There is a curfew in the City of Thorns. At night, no one is allowed to move around in the city at will except for the city guard patrols and the temple knights.
Therefore, the captain of the Knights Templar basically didn't see anyone along the way.
Only the bright moonlight was shining, stretching his shadow long and making it look a little blurry. In the darkness, only the sound of his footsteps could be heard echoing clearly in the streets at night.
"Um?"
The captain of the Knights Templar suddenly stopped. He looked up at the shadow at the street corner in front of him. It was facing away from the moonlight and his specific appearance could not be seen clearly.
But his intuition as a warrior told him that there were some strange things gathering there, as if... it was a person?
"Who is there!"
The captain of the Temple Knights frowned, growled, and grasped the greatsword at his waist.
"Ah, have you been discovered?"
A hoarse male voice came from the dark shadows, with a strong smile, sounding a little cynical: "Oh, it seems that I am not suitable for this technical job of hiding."
Long Aotian took a few steps forward, half of his body still hidden in the shadows.
Long Aotian greeted with a smile: "Good evening, sir."
"It's you?"
The captain of the Temple Knights did not let down his guard, but growled: "What are you doing here? Outsiders, you are not allowed to run around in the City of Thorns at night!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I just heard you were searching for the dead during the day, right?"
He smiled strangely and took another step forward.
That half of the body was exposed.
It's half of a skeleton!
"Sir, are you looking for me?"
Long Aotian chuckled, his right empty eye socket flashing with soul fire as he stared at the captain of the Temple Knights.
The captain of the Temple Knights was immediately startled and horrified.
Long Aotian's appearance at this time was too weird and scary. The left side of his body was covered with human skin, and the right side of his body was in the shape of a skeleton soldier.
The half-human, half-ghost figure looked particularly terrifying under the cover of night.
The players in the live broadcast room were criticizing Long Aotian with barrages of comments.
"Brother Long is such a jerk. He took off half of his skin and scared the kid so much that he almost went crazy."
"Draw your sword! Oh, how stupid, so stupid! I can kill him a hundred times in this moment of distraction!"
"No, I can't watch this anymore. Brother Long looks too ugly. He's a supernatural actor who doesn't need makeup."
Perhaps because he heard the angry shouts from the players in the live broadcast room, the captain of the Temple Knights drew out his knight's sword without hesitation.
"Chonglang!"
The greatsword was unsheathed, and the bright and broad sword body slowly rippled with the light of fighting spirit under the reflection of the moonlight, full of masculine beauty.
"This weapon is at least a high-level blue weapon."
Long Aotian licked his lips, and only half of his tongue stuck out, which made the captain of the Temple Knights couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.
"The undead really appeared in the City of Thorn Flowers! They must be the undead brought in by Andrew!"
The captain of the Temple Knights did not dare to be careless. He took out a divine scroll for early warning from his arms and quickly tore it open to inform his companions in the temple.
“Sizzle!”
After the magic scroll split, a stream of white light rushed upwards , but suddenly exploded halfway, as if it hit something, and turned into a white rain of light that fell down.
The captain of the Temple Knights could not help but growl, "Forbidden Magic Scroll!"
"That's a bit of insight."
Long Aotian clapped his hands with a smile: "Pa pa pa."
"Brothers, come out to work."
A dozen undead players, led by Ma Kesi, came out. They were all second-level undead, and their aura was terrifying and powerful.
The players who can accept the mission of sneaking into the City of Thorn Flowers are not only second-level undead professions, but also the best among them.
The captain of the Knights Templar knew that he was most likely in danger tonight, but his inner faith did not allow him to beg for mercy or retreat from the undead.
"war!"
A gleam of determination flashed in the eyes of the captain of the Temple Knights. He actively activated his fighting spirit and attacked the undead players.
"superior!"
Ma Ke Si waved his hand, and several second-level undead players rushed forward on their own initiative, while the others kept alert in the formation.
This poor NPC offended the petty-minded Brother Long and will die here today.
The captain of the Temple Knights is quite powerful, his level is at least 30-35, which is not lower than that of Ma Kesi and others, and may even be higher.
However, the level is only a digitized strength division prepared by the Godhead system for players , and does not fully represent a person's strength.
Second-level undead players are all high-level undead with great potential. They often fight against Warcraft and participate in team battles.
It is no exaggeration to say that the players in Death Scourge are really constantly honing and growing on the brink of life and death. Their fighting instincts are not weaker than those of the captain of the Knights Templar, and they are even better because of the advantages of their undead skills.
Plus, it's late at night, the undead's favorite time.
The battle process is simple and the battle is over quickly.
In less than ten minutes, the captain of the Knights Templar fell to the ground, his breathing stopped, and he died on the spot.
His body was covered with scars, and there was a faint green stench emanating from his mouth and nose. This was the effect of infection and curse skills.
Obviously, this poor NPC became a prop for skill experiments by Ma Kesi and others. The captain of the Temple Knights was not killed by the skill output, but was tortured to death by the second-level players when they were experimenting with the skill effects one by one.
"It's really hard to bear a beating."
Long Aotian shook his head, stepped on the body of the captain of the Temple Knights, and said coldly: "This is the fate of going against me, Long Aotian!"
Ma Kesi flattered him at the right time: "Brother Long is awesome."
"As usual, strip him naked, and then use the [Corpse Dissolving Powder] you bought in the mall to clean the body."
Long Aotian waved his hand and said, "The rules of the martial arts world are to destroy the body and eliminate all traces!"
"okay."
Ma Ke Si led the players to start searching corpses. This is the fun of the game for every player. After killing monsters, you always have to see what equipment is dropped, right?
The armor, greatsword, and even the underwear worn by the Temple Knight were all taken off, and the players checked their properties one by one.
It was really trash, so I threw it back onto the corpse and let it dissolve together.
If the attributes of the equipment are good, just put it in the backpack of the player in the God System. It will be good whether you sell it later or use it yourself.
This time, a team of elite players sneaked into the City of Thorn Flowers. The three major clubs had already promised that all the profits would belong to the players themselves.
Even the professional players from the three major clubs are no exception.
Who wouldn't be happy to go on business trips while getting paid and earn some extra money?
"Huh!"
Ma Kesi found something on the captain of the Temple Knights and called out to Long Aotian: "Brother Long, look! This thing is a bit strange!"
" what?"
Long Aotian took the thing and looked down at it. It was a piece of parchment with a special texture. There were neatly drawn patterns on the parchment, like a picture. There were also many time and name marks listed next to the patterns.
At first glance, it looks like a map?
Long Aotian glanced at the properties of the item and his expression changed immediately.
