Tomb Survival: Evolve from Skeleton

205 The Undead and the Circus

The Holy Light Temple has believers in every corner of the Demon Soul Continent. The largest religion in human society, the Pope, even has the right to decide the heirs of most principality lords in name.

The Temple of the Holy Light is huge, full of talents, and more importantly...

No war will lack the active figure of priests, and no battlefield will be able to do without the assistance of priests' powerful holy light magic.

From world battlefields to adventure teams, priests and priests in white robes are the most popular professions.

The reason why human beings were able to defeat the many large epic empires established by other intelligent races and dominate the mainland is not unrelated to the prosperity and rise of the Holy Light Temple.

But just like every organization that has stepped to the top, after becoming the largest religious force in the mainland, the Temple of the Holy Light has gradually brought into full play its characteristics of stubbornness, domineering, and domineering, and has been dubbed "heretics" and "blasphemers". "The number of religions, organizations, and civilians whose status as a "witch" has been expelled without reason is as numerous as stars in the sky.

Almost every day in the central squares of various cities and towns, there would be fire scenes of various scales. Among them, there were many members of the mercenary group who accidentally offended the Temple of Holy Light, and some of them were just because the woman they accidentally molested happened to be a believer in the Temple of Holy Light.

"Is there a mercenary group here? The Thieves Union is also fine, I need someone to serve me...!"

As soon as the woman entered "Pig and Whistle", she cried hysterically.

It was only then that everyone noticed that although the priest's robe on her body was gorgeous, it was filthy and damaged in many places. Coupled with the blood stains on the corners of the clothes, there was no doubt that this noble lady had just experienced a fatal accident. Escape, even worse things may have happened.

For the Temple of the Holy Light, which must be vengeful, this is already a major event that is enough to ignite countless fires in the central square of Haishiwan Low Tide Harbor.

It's just strange, why didn't this girl priest ask for help from the local Holy Light Temple, but came to this place where dragons and snakes mixed together, and issued a mission to a group of mercenaries and thief killers who usually didn't pay attention to them at all?
Everyone was bewildered and full of doubts, so naturally no one went up to answer the conversation rashly, so that the face of the priestess became more and more ugly.

The female steward suddenly took out a delicate gold cross from her corsage and smashed it on the table, shouting loudly——

"This is the reward for my mission. Anyone who owns this golden Holy Cross will become a friend of the Holy Light Temple, and has the right to a religious amnesty! In addition, I can also pay an additional [-] gold coins. No one is willing to take on my mission?"

The atmosphere suddenly boiled.
"Religious Amnesty" and "Friends of the Holy Light".

Nothing can mean more to a large organization or individual than this humble cross.

In this world where you don't even know when you will accidentally offend the colossus of the Law of the Holy Light, these two things are equivalent to an unstable covenant and a gold medal for avoiding death.

This kind of remuneration is definitely extremely generous no matter what task the priestess wants to release, not to mention [-] gold coins is definitely not a small amount.

It's just that the doubts in everyone's minds are getting deeper and deeper.
How could an important person in the church with a golden cross ask them for help?

unless
What this woman was about to do did not want the church to know.

In that case, the problem seems to be more complicated.
Finally, an old-looking mercenary spoke up and said——

"My lord priest, please tell us what your mission requirements are. I believe that the vast majority of people here have already been moved by your generous mission rewards. What they need to know is only the content of the mission."

"It's easy!"

Priestess closed her eyes and remained silent for a while, as if she was trying her best to calm her excitement, then suddenly opened her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said with murderous intent——

"About 350 miles from this damned harbor, by the sea, there is an ogre tribe, yes, that damned Black Iron tribe, I want you to completely wipe out this ogre tribe, and wipe out those dirty Get rid of all the blue trash, leaving no one behind!"

……

There is nothing special about the mission of the priestess, it is a very common mission to exterminate humanoid bandits.

There are several missions of this type released every day, ranging from the simplest e-level elimination of slimes to the fine steel level attacking the dragon's nest.

However, the task coordinators of these major mercenary groups and thieves' guilds were stunned for a moment after hearing the content of the task clearly, and the next moment they all sat back uninterestedly.

Several representatives of the most powerful large-scale mercenary organizations hesitated again and again, sighed helplessly, sat down and continued to drink wine sullenly.

This scene immediately made the goddess stunned on the spot, and she said with trembling lips: "You, what do you mean?"

It was the old-looking mercenary who answered, he said with a wry smile——

"Your honorable lord, don't embarrass us anymore. We all know the ogre tribe you mentioned. They are very famous here. Not long ago, a wealthy businessman from an outer island came to retrieve the lost precious goods. , organized hundreds of elites from three mercenary regiments to attack the Black Iron tribe, but what happened?"

"...Including the rich man himself, only 300 of the more than 20 people who set off have returned. The rest of the people, whether they are living or dead, male or female, have probably all entered those blue skins by now. The belly of the ghost, right now, the mercenary guild has raised the task level of attacking the Black Iron Ogre tribe to the steel level, which is the same as attacking the dragon's lair, and there is no guild or mercenary group in Haishiwan Port now Possess the ability to independently complete fine steel-level tasks."

"Then you can unite with a few guilds, no, unite all the mercenary groups and thieves' guilds to complete my mission." The woman was even a little hysterical with excitement.

"Okay, honorable priest, unless you have many golden crosses and ten times as many gold coins, otherwise we can only say please forgive us and we can't do anything.

Seeing Priestess's distraught look, the old mercenary sighed again, and tried to persuade him——

"Looking at you, it should be that the team was attacked by the Black Iron tribe, and you were the only one who escaped by chance, right? Then listen to me, or you can go to the church for help and send 'Templars' and "Judgment Priests" to help you Revenge, the sea cliff where the Black Iron tribe is located is hidden, easy to defend and difficult to attack, large-scale troops can't use it at all, I am afraid that only all the elite troops above the third-tier high-ranking can attack there."

"...If you have any unspeakable secrets and cannot seek help from the church, then simply forget about it completely, and treat it as a nightmare. Every day in this seaport, caravans and the like are attacked by demihumans. Bandits plundered, Amazon Centaur today, and Dark Iron tribe tomorrow. If they were easy to deal with, they would have been wiped out countless times. You must know that the only thing that is not lacking in this seaport is money and people. "

"No, if you don't tear up these bastards, especially that guy, I.I.I."

Seeing the resentment, hatred, and madness in the woman's eyes, the old mercenary shook his head, suddenly pushed the priestess out of the hotel, then pointed in a certain direction, and said in a low voice——

"I don't know if those lunatics are capable of completing your commission, but in the current low tide city of Haishiwan, I'm afraid only a real lunatic would dare to take on your crazy task."

Priestess looked in the direction pointed by the old mercenary's finger, only to see a huge red and white dome tent.Music and laughter could also be heard from inside the tent.

"Are you kidding me? Isn't that a .circus?"
