Broad World

Chapter 440: The Spread of the Cult

Beholders, the nightmare of all adventurers on the continent of Faerun, are not much worse than giant dragons in terms of lethality and destructive power. Almost everyone knows that this is an extremely dangerous monster. It can really kill people with its eyes. Their characters are completely distorted, cruel and cunning. They dare not pry into all the secrets hidden behind these creatures.

You must know that this book is called a masterpiece of horror, and it is all about Effiger seeing the real scene of the world through the artifact "Ebony Mirror". These include the prehistoric era ruled by the aboleth (the ancient evil, which existed at the beginning of the universe, and was born from the blood of the "Blood Queen" Paskessys), a completely different from the conventional universe system A world where even the gods are in danger of going mad after traveling to that world. Chaos is filled with countless weird and powerful creatures, which are far beyond the comparison of the ordinary main material plane or even the outer planes.

His solitary exploration of the depths, in-depth conversations with dangerous illithid sages and vicious flayers, observations and studies of creatures such as beholders, hordes, and psychic worms, occupy the terrifying content. A great deal of space in this holy book. Even the gods will tremble involuntarily when they read the forbidden words recorded on it. Even such a crazy person dare not reveal the true secret of the birth of the beholder, which shows how twisted and terrifying this creature is. They were first born in the outer planes, and their ancestors were a primitive species with abilities comparable to that of the gods. "Great Mistress" is the only name for her from the outside world.

There can be no doubt that all beholders are descended from the Great Mistress. Occasionally, among the hundreds of beholders, a particularly long-lived individual appears, known as the Elder Eye. Exactly where its amazing longevity comes from is still hotly debated. The Elder Eyes themselves believe that this means that they have inherited the purest blood of the Great Mistress.

This special individual not only has all the abilities of ordinary beholders, but also awakens the talent of warlocks. Every elder eye has a warlock level of no less than six. The longer you live, the higher your level, even if one or two legendary warlocks pop up, it is not impossible. They temporarily close their main eye to concentrate when casting magic, but the surrounding smaller eyes emit their usual deadly rays. It can be said to be one of the most dangerous monsters in the entire main material plane.

At least one Elder Eye, and maybe the Hive Mother Eye. Plus the entire group of beholders, this is the real enemy Henry has to face in his mission. Even as a legendary mage and druid, he dare not relax. After all, there are quite a few legendary professionals who died under the beholder rays, especially if they were hit by a large number of magic rays, even the protective magic might not be able to hold on. —————————————————

After making all the preparations, a group of three walked along the bustling street towards the headquarters of the Knights of the Heart of Heat in the east of the temple area. Along the way, they saw many blind men standing on the side of the road shouting to passers-by:

"Blind eyes guide us on the right path! Destroying those eyes allows you to see things you've never seen before..."

"Cow before the ghastly gaze of the blind eye! Bow down and scoop out those two horrible things from the eye sockets, or be cast into the Pit of the Faithless!"

"...the great god is spreading the truth. He will make the false gods scream like crazy under their blind gaze!"

"The blind eye is the savior you fear! It is the fire that illuminates the path of salvation for all! Unbelievers, listen to me, you should tremble knowing that you have the honor to worship the blind eye!"

"I used to be a believer in the false god Haim, but now I have found the real truth. Goug out your own eyes, this is the only right way."…

These guys are like crazy, every time they see a passer-by, they will gather around and preach enthusiastically, just like the priest of Prince of Lies Cyric. Aimeng covered her mouth and asked in surprise: "Oh my God! This is simply too terrifying. They actually... actually gouged out their own eyes."

"There is no doubt that this must be a cult. I haven't seen any gods who force their followers to gouge out their eyes, even evil gods are no exception." Hina said with a look of disgust on her face. She hates this kind of deception the most. I can't wait to draw out the two-handed giant sword and kill all these damn blind people.

Henry glanced around and found that there were no less than two hundred blind men like this all over the temple area. No wonder the major temples and knight orders couldn't sit still. If this situation continues, the entire city may fall in two months, and it will be too late to clean up.

He frowned and said to the two girls: "Don't look, hurry up and go to the headquarters of the Knight Order. Our time is running out, this cult must be eradicated immediately."

"That's right, look, there's another person over there who has gouged out his eyes." As she spoke, Hina pointed to a young girl not far away. Bewitched by the blind men, she forcibly dug out the eyeballs with her fingers. The two black eye sockets looked eerie and terrifying.

After seeing it, Aimeng shivered involuntarily and muttered in a low voice: "It's terrible... It's really scary..."

The bloody scene made the three of them feel heavy. They didn't speak a word all the way. It didn't take long to arrive at the door of the Knights. I saw two huge sword-holding statues standing in the river on both sides of the main entrance, and a bridge built with stone slabs in the middle. It's a huge three-story building. One of the floors is submerged in the river, and only the upper two floors are the real usable space.

Just when everyone was about to open the door and go in. Suddenly a black-haired girl rushed out from the side of the road, blocking everyone's way. She bowed deeply to Henry, and at the same time said in an unproficient common language: "I salute you, Son of God."

"Son of God?!" Henry suddenly had an inexplicable feeling. He raised his eyebrows and asked back, "Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person? I'm not a son of God."

The girl looked around and asked in shock, "Why? Isn't your name Aberdare?"

Henry shook his head slightly and explained: "Of course not. Aberdare has been imprisoned in the Arcatraz, and we are trying to rescue him. But if you only look for the Son of God, there is still one here, such as me The pink-haired girl next to her is also a descendant of Baal, the God of Slaughter."

He has already discovered that the black-haired girl in front of him is not an ordinary human being. Judging from the color of her pupils and slightly pointed ears, she should be from the Asimo protoss. A humanoid intelligent life form in the upper planes. They are usually good-aligned, and rarely appear on the Material Plane unless they have a mission.

A son of Baal was also heard. The girl hurriedly patted her chest to regain her composure. After wiping the sweat from her forehead from nervousness, she bowed again. "I'm very sorry. My name is Seri Love, the servant of Tyre, the God of Justice, and I am seeking your help."

Aimon's eyes widened and he asked curiously, "Help? Me? My God, this is really incredible. Is there anything I can do to help?"

Seri Love nodded solemnly. "Of course, I'm hunting down a fallen servant named Koseva, and I need your help."

Speaking of this, the girl paused slightly, as if recalling something. After more than ten seconds, she came back to her senses and continued: "Before I came out to carry out the task, a priest of the temple told me to find a child of Baal, and you will be taken away only with his (her) company." To Koceva's side. The Son of God is a tool of fate, and whether his (her) era will be destroyed will depend entirely on his (her) final choice."…

"Wow! Is this some kind of prophecy? Aberdare or I will become an evil demon king?" Imoon asked with bright eyes. It was evident that her outrageous curiosity had been piqued again.

Seri Love blushed from being stared at, and stammered an answer: "No... I don't know, I just relayed what the pastor said. Dear Son of God. Can you let me stay by your side?"

"Of course my words are fine, but unfortunately, I'm not the leader of this team. So if you want to stay, you'd better ask him." As he spoke, Aimon pointed to Henry who was standing in the group.

"Excuse me, can I stay?" Saili Love asked in a low voice. She looked very nervous, and her breathing became short of breath.

Looking at the little girl in front of him who was less than 1.5 meters tall, Henry couldn't help but sighed. He patted his forehead and said: "Yes, yes, but I have to ask two questions first. First, where are you from? Second, what do you know. You must know that we are an adventure team. may fight monsters and bandits."

"I come from the domain of Tyre, the God of Justice, the heavenly mountain full of light and warmth. As for the battle, please don't worry, I am a tenth-level knight. You can shout his holy name at any time during the battle, absolutely not There is a slight retreat." After saying this. Seri Love stood there nervously, looking like a primary school student waiting to hear his test results.

"Okay. I agree with you to stay, but you must obey the command in all actions. Especially when dealing with evil creatures, don't reporters know without my order?" Henry warned seriously. He didn't want someone to destroy his designated tactics, and then rush up to head-to-head like a rogue villain.

Seri Love patted her chest and assured, "Please rest assured, as long as I don't violate the essence of kindness, I will obey every order."

Henry smiled and nodded. "Then I welcome you as the team leader. By the way, Seri Love, how old are you this year?"

"It's a great honor to be recognized by you. I just celebrated my birthday and I'm already fifteen years old." A smile appeared on the girl's face as she spoke.

"Fifteen? By gods, you're still a child." Hina exclaimed in surprise. She couldn't believe that the priest of the God of Justice would let such a young girl come out on a mission alone. You must know that there are many evil people in this world who are waiting for the opportunity to lure those young and not firm paladins to fall.
