Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 850 832. Armor in the temple

 The holder of the artifact.

Although among this kind of characters, the most powerful one is like Cassandra. But under normal circumstances, this kind of opponent is not considered a threat in the eyes of Lan En and Cassandra.

  They are just troublesome characters who need to be slashed a few times because of the protection of the artifact.

But for ordinary people who do not hold artifacts, or cannot be recognized for use by artifacts, what is the difference between this and meeting a plate-armored knight in the Bronze Age? !

There is still the possibility of losing lives on the battlefield, but in an ordinary battle where people can freely use their hands and feet, how can this be fought?

Ordinary plate armor knights may be relatively bulky, but artifacts have various functions, and protection is just a basic ability.

 The pair of [Amazon Greaves] that Cassandra currently wears on her feet can still produce explosive power.

 Fauber was being hunted by the holder of the artifact, and her premonition of crisis was now expanding like never before, making her heart pound.

 The field of vision in front of me seems to be blurred with the disorder of my heartbeat.

 This is not quite right.

Fauber thought to himself.

Even if she is flustered, she is not so flustered that her eyes are blurred, right? This year and a half of hard work in Athens was not in vain.

 I have the plague, am I sick? Or was I just poisoned?

Thoughts in his mind were flying wildly, and Fu Bai could only take one step at a time.

 Efforts were made to find denser crowds, get in, and then get out again.

 But the feeling of being watched and followed is always with me.

Even the people who were following her were getting closer and closer, almost giving up hiding, and began to roughly push away the pedestrians blocking the road.

The sounds of curses and falls from passers-by could already be heard in Fu Bo's ears.

In this case, Phoebe walked quickly with his head down, not caring about the specific road he was walking on, he only knew to approach the general direction of Pericles House.

There's Lann, there's Cassandra, there's even a fluff ball. With them here, it will definitely be no problem to deal with a few artifact holders who pop up from nowhere!

But soon, Fubo found trouble because of his blurred vision.

 She found herself walking into a building with only two entrances and exits.

Pericles Theater, this is also Pericles’ contribution to the Athenians.

Thick columns made of stacked cylindrical marbles, artistic wall paintings, neatly arranged audience benches, and a drama stage in front.

These things are quite artistic in ordinary eyes, and they also reflect Athens' emphasis on art and cultivating sentiments.

 But now

The exit in front of Fu Bai was blocked by two warriors holding hook knives, shields, and wearing old man masks and black and purple tassels on their helmets.

 Behind her who had just walked in, two other similarly dressed warriors also walked in.

At the door where Fu Bai came in just now, a pile of patient corpses was burning.

One of the religious guards reached out and pulled out two burning corpses from the fire, dragged them to the exit of the theater, and blocked them.

 The sound of sandals clicking on the marble floor was slow and heavy.

The friction of dragging corpses and the crackle of human bodies burning brought echoes under the sound-concentrating architectural structure of the theatre, a hollow and permeating echo.

 “Sorry, kid.”

The religious guard who was dragging two burning corpses with his bare hands to block the door said under the old man's mask and at the same time drew out his hook knife.

 The twin entwining snakes on his shield reflected the golden light in the flickering light of the fire.

It doesn’t look sacred, but it’s strangely cold.

“The order we received is: kill Maurice Dieter and leave no one alive.”

"You really shouldn't have come to his house today." Fu Bai's throat rolled up and down, and he swallowed hard.

 At the same time, his body arched slightly, like a cat getting ready to go.

 She moved her left wrist slightly, feeling the mechanism and binding firmness of the hidden sword.

At the same time, it seemed that because the sense of crisis had reached its peak, Fu Bai's originally blurry vision suddenly became clear.

 Furthermore, there are some differences from the normal field of vision.

 She seemed to have suddenly ‘marked’ these cult guards.

After marking, she can clearly 'see' the outlines and positions of these people even if they move behind the building.

 You can even see their hand movements behind the raised shield!

Fauber still didn’t know what was going on, but with her vision clear again, she was not ready to sit back and die.

On the other side, Lan En also led Pericles to his cherished Parthenon, led by Velvet Ball.

“The ship Aspasia contacted was the Adrestia, which is Cassandra’s ship.”

Lann took the frail old man beside him to the highest point of the Acropolis. Looking down from the cliff here, he could see the whole city of Athens.

The Parthenon was built here not only because Pericles wanted everyone in the city to see this miraculous building, but also to reflect Athena's lofty status.

Not all of the tall and magnificent temples are made of pure marble. When it was being built, famous artists in Athens came here to offer their skills.

On the walls of the temple, artists used murals to depict the mythical story of Athena and the story of the city of Athens.

In the temple, there is a red bronze statue of Athena carved by Phidias himself.

 The shape is exactly the same as the huge statues in the city, but after being scaled down, it is still more than ten meters high, and the details are more delicate.

Even during this plague-ridden period, the Athenians still filled the temple with flower petals, used copper jars and bottles to hold sacrifices, and placed them at the feet of the statue of Athena.

 The incense smoke drifts into lines and lingers around the statue. It seems more ethereal, even divine.

Lann helped Pericles in. His ears flapped slightly and he heard a few breaths outside the side door of the main hall.

He didn’t think much about it. After all, in this era, even during the plague, there must be priests in the temple.

 In other words, it is during difficult times that there must be priests.

Lann helped Pericles to the statue of Athena and stepped aside.

 He does not believe in God, but he will not disturb other people's worship.

 But when Pericles had just knelt down devoutly in front of the statue of Athena and crossed his hands, Lan's brow suddenly frowned.

 His eyes looked towards the side door of the temple.

The original sound of breathing there is approaching, and the sound of sandals stepping on marble is clear and powerful.

But the problem is that those sounds are also accompanied by the sound of collisions between armor parts!

Priests don’t wear armor in the temple!

 “Pericles, get up first.”

Lann's left hand rested on the handle of the knife at his waist, his eyes fixed on the side door, and he walked towards the Athenian consul who was kneeling on the ground.
