Mercenaries and Adventurers

Vol 4 Chapter 339: ,let's make friends! hot metal staff

After dealing with the unexpected parasitic monster near the logging site, Kil was jumping off the pile of logs and was about to return to his horse to continue his vigilance, but he did not want to be stopped by two priests from the Church of the Sun God.

"This young knight. The sun is above, and the sun shines on all living beings. Does your sword contain some kind of power from my god?"

The thirty-year-old church priest with a one-handed wood-cutting ax on his waist asked. The priest of the Sun God Church who was holding a staff next to him also looked curiously at Keir's hunting sword.

However, the scabbard and hilt of the hunting sword are made of magic materials provided by the Church of the God of Agriculture. Therefore, if the sword is not pulled out, outsiders can only see a slight amount of the power of the God of Agriculture escaping.

If the two of them hadn't seen the familiar power of the Sun God wrapped around the knight's sword with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed that this sword had the power of the Sun God now. Of course, asking questions at this time is just a way to find opportunities to close the relationship with the foreign knights.

Kil was very honest when facing the inquiry: "That's right. My hunting sword is indeed inlaid with a piece of the Sun God Church's creation with magical light power. Two priests, do you have any questions?"

The frank answers allowed the two priests to save a lot of words. They looked at each other, and the one with a slightly higher status said with a smile: "You are a knight from another province, right? We also heard at the Baron's Mansion before we came that a group of people came from Yemei Town. Foreign refugees, and the leader of the team is a young knight with noble conduct. I guess it is you?"

Kiel lifted his visor and laughed: "I can't really say that my behavior is noble. I just passed by the white stone city wall pass on the border of the province with my companions. When I saw the poor people there who were blocked and unable to advance or retreat, I felt soft-hearted and took them with me. That’s it. I can’t tell who needs whom more along the way. I’m leading them and they are supporting me.”

To be honest, along the way, apart from being a trainee knight, Kiel was regarded as someone who needed to be treated seriously by various local managers. This had something to do with the fact that he had hundreds of people in his team at this time. After all, if there are only one or two people, the leaders who manage the local area will not take him seriously.

Of course, there will be less trouble along the way. But Kiel's gains will naturally be much less. As for the horse armor on Blood Licker, if he hadn't had hundreds of people outside Dorne Town, Mr. Scott, one of the leaders of Dorne Town, wouldn't have helped him a lot.

The Sun God Priest said: "These are the humble words of a noble man. Together with this knight, we destroyed a rebellious flesh-and-blood demon parasitic monster. Can you please meet me?"

Keir chuckled lightly, what do you mean by destroying the monster together? Is an opponent as weak as the parasitic monster considered a monster? A water ghost is probably more difficult to deal with than these guys. However, he understood what the other party meant. The above words were just an excuse, and getting to know each other was the purpose.

But why not?

Kil does not want to completely tie himself to the Church of Saturn, although he is now working for the Church of Saturn and has received a lot of benefits and support from the Church of Saturn.

But he understands that there are mountains to rely on and rivers to dry. A good man has three gangs. If he knows more people, he will have more roads.

Thinking of this, Kiel hit his left chest with his right fist and stood up straight: "Two priests, I am Joe Kiel. I am from Kendall County, Northwest Province. I came to the south this time just to support the southern expedition. The noble lords of the province came to repel the wars of their southern neighbors.”

The two priests of the Church of the Sun God immediately saluted. First, they raised their palms to the sky as if to receive the blessings of the sun. Then they put their hands on their chests and bowed slightly to Kil: "Tok Drizzt, Sun Church priest, pastoral office in the Church of God in Sars County."

The other person raised the metal staff to the sky with the hand that was not holding it while saluting, then put it on his chest, bowed slightly and said: "Mers Nass is also a priest from Night Charm Town in Sars County. Shepherd."

"Hello, you two shepherds. Although the place is not very suitable, there are no tables, chairs, drinks and food, but we can be considered acquainted." Kil smiled and pointed to the surrounding environment.

The tall pile of logs, the corpses of the destroyed parasitic monsters, as well as the busy lumberjacks and a large number of horse-drawn carriages behind the nearby log pile.

The environment cannot be said to be good.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you bathe in the light of my God's love, what's the difference between the wild and the town?" Priest Drizzt said cheerfully. Priest Nas next to him also nodded, feeling that what his companion said made sense. Priests of God were not ordinary people and did not need to be troubled by the world's customary etiquette.

"Although it is a bit presumptuous, Knight Kiel, can the two of us take a look at your sword? To be honest, the two of us just sensed the power of the sun **** on your sword. If I guessed correctly, it should be A blessing item that adds abilities to weapons and equipment? It’s really rare.”

His companion, the priest Nass, also added: "It is very rare. At least these things are rarely made in Sars County and the upper diocese of Paris. The upper priests always ask everyone to promote the faith, and say that the faith brings The divine power increase that comes is much easier to use and more flexible than these. Looking at it now, it is not the case at all."

"Say less." Seeing that his companion's speech was inappropriate, Priest Drizzt immediately advised him.

Kil didn't care. He felt that the last thing he feared about the spiritual weapon was being taken away or lost, so he immediately took out the hunter's sheath, dragged the sword with his left hand, held the hilt with his right hand, and placed the sword horizontally in front of him. Showing the two priests the blessing ability of the Church of the Sun God that was integrated into the sword after it was reforged after the hunt.

Seeing how generous the young Kiel was, the two priests bowed slightly and leaned side by side to look down.

The two of them lowered their heads and looked at it carefully, praising incessantly: "Nas! Look, this is a prayer of praise to our God. Let me think about it, which one is it?"

His companion, Priest Nass, opened his eyes wide and read out the prayer of praise engraved on the sword one by one.

"When the sun rises, it illuminates the earth."

"Everything is unwinding and activity is blooming."

"At the height of the sun, the light shines."

"Those who feel ashamed should retreat."

"At sunset, the light is gentle."

"Look into my eyes and give you a peaceful sleep."

“In the beginning, you should rejoice.”

"When you are in trouble, you should be in awe."

"At the end of the day, you should be sentimental."

"When night falls, there is no need to panic."

"Those who believe in me should have my eyes open and closed."

"So, the darkness recedes."

"Those who are your enemies will suffer from blindness."

This was the first time that Kil knew that the prayer of the Church of the Sun God inlaid on the hunter was this content. This was somewhat related to the weapon ability given by this blessing item. You know, the special ability of the long sword hunter happened to be this blessing. What the prop brings is releasing a range of white light to blind enemies.

He suspected at this time that if he were a believer of the Sun God, or a priest of the Sun God Church, his blinding ability would probably be enhanced, just like the amber metal staff in the hands of Priest Batar.

But now he is not as weak as he was when he was hunted after being recast last year. After being taken into knight training by Knight Crow, his own abilities are constantly improving. The blinding white light that was previously his trump card now has a chance to be used. Became very few.

After all, a normal enemy would be dead if he slashed with his sword. The result would be the same whether or not he blinded the enemy.

As Kil was thinking about this, Priest Drizzt slapped his forehead and shouted excitedly: "I remembered, this is a formal prayer that I saw when I was studying in the diocese. The priest who taught at that time was just a simple prayer I brought it over at once, so it turns out that it can also be made into a blessing item through some methods?"

Priest Nass muttered with doubtful eyes: "Why don't I remember that the professor's teacher taught this prayer? I have no impression..."

"Stupid, you forgot. The teacher at that time mentioned it once when teaching the making of magical items, of course only once, and he only read the first half of this prayer. Huh, those guys don't like making magical items, so they just I won't explain this in detail to those who are studying further." Priest Drizzt explained to his companions.

But Priest Nass rolled his eyes at his companion: "Who has a memory as good as yours?"

After they finished their discussion, they thanked Kil who took out the sword and watched it. Kil felt strange: "Is this good? No need to copy it down? Or do you want me to use this ability that can blind people?"

Just when Priest Nass was about to nod, Priest Drizzt waved his hand and declined: "Thank you, Knight Kil, that's enough. I took note of the prayer after seeing it, and the ability brought by the blessing items, It's all in the text of the prayer, it's a formal prayer of praise, and as long as you know the full text and have the power of the sun **** of our priests, you can find some way to recreate it."

Priest Nath opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He could only shrug at Kil, saying that Drizzt could do it, but he was still not strong enough.

Kiel clearly felt Priest Drizzt's confidence and slight pride in his ability in his words. He also wanted to get to know and make friends with this young priest who seemed to have unlimited future development, so he thought about it and said, "Look at Cui Fang." Priest Sturt, you don’t have the long metal staff you held before, and the ‘meteor’ you threw before, haha, it must have been you who threw it, right?”

"That's right, that's right. It was me who concentrated my divine power on the staff, aimed and threw it. I wanted to directly turn the parasitic monster into ashes. Oh, who would have thought that the guy dodged it and missed it so directly? Know where it landed."

Priest Drizzt turned around and raised his finger to point in the direction of the long staff that had just flown away. He said with some regret, "But it doesn't matter. It's a priest's staff. When I go back to town, the church still has a spare stock, although it's not the original one. But it makes no difference for temporary use.”

Kil coughed slightly at this time: "If you don't mind, I can ride a horse in the direction of the throw and help you find the lost weapon."

The two priests looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "That's not necessary. We have just met each other, so it's not good to ask you to do this. And knight, you have to be responsible for guarding the logging convoy, right? You leave temporarily. Otherwise, the safety here will be in danger."

Kil snorted and laughed twice: "Don't worry, my horse - Licking Blood Grass is very fast, and it won't take much time to go back and forth. As for the safety of the convoy and the loggers, please help me. Well, if it doesn't work, just call the Sass Knight, he and his soldiers are quite powerful."

After Kil finished speaking, without waiting for the two of them to refuse any more, he jumped on the blood-licking grass, sheathed his sword, knocked the horse's belly, and started running with the reins.

Without passing through the lumberyard, Kil drove the blood-licking grass and rushed out of the lumberyard filled with log piles, and went directly from the outside to the direction where the priest's staff flew away. The two priests on the spot looked at each other and had to come to the crowd to temporarily replace Knight Kiel and be responsible for the security here.

-

Hu-hu-

The fierce wind blew across the sides of Kiel's helmet, causing a rhythmic sound.

The blood-licking grass on the crotch ran forward excitedly, letting go of speed and physical strength. When encountering potholes, rocks, or scattered felled logs, it directly accelerated and jumped over these small obstacles.

Kil also shouted excitedly, which caused some of the parasitic monsters wandering around to hide or flee back to the direction they came from before.

Perhaps it was due to the fact that a large number of local parasitic monsters were defeated by Kil alone yesterday. After these guys discovered that this human on horseback was charging, they all retreated and were no longer as stubborn and reckless as before. .

The thrown priest's staff flew towards the north side of the lumberyard. Although anyone who saw that scene at the time would most likely describe it as a 'shooting star', the metal staff did not actually fly very far. After leaving the logging camp, Kil was riding on horseback and easily saw a large scorch mark on the northern hillside caused by the 'meteor' falling to the ground.

A piece of land the size of a house, including the vegetation that originally existed on it, was burned to black ash. At this time, Kiel came galloping on horseback, and he could still see the small clusters of wildfires still burning around the scorch marks, as well as the gray smoke coming out.

The smoke brought by wildfires failed to form an eye-catching smoke column, mainly because the wind here was very strong, and the small amount of smoke was blown by the wind and disappeared in a few blows.

Kil, who came on horseback, did not dismount directly to look for the long staff, but first circled the place a few times on horseback.

"Sure enough, they are lying in ambush here."

With sharp eyes, Keir looked past the smoke that interfered with his vision and found several 'ash piles' on the black scorched earth burned by the flames.

This is an uninhabited wilderness, and it is not a place where humans live. Where do the haystacks or firewood piles come from? Correspondingly, there was naturally no pile of ashes burned by the divine power brought by the long staff falling from the sky.

Turning around and taking out the full-metal double-edged spear from the weapon rack behind the war horse, Kil rode straight towards the piles of ashes.

The blood-licking grass was a little afraid of the small burning wildfire and the smoke coming out, but after Kil's urging, it had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush forward, choosing to trust its master.

The wildfires on the periphery of the scorched ground were rushed by the war horses and extinguished by being trampled directly. Even the smoke was dispersed by the wind brought by the galloping horses. Calculating the speed and distance accurately, Keir lowered his spear and carried it past an ashes pile in front of him.

There was a pop, and it was obvious that something had been pierced.

The war horse did not go deep into the scorched area, but passed by. Kil took advantage of the situation and picked up his spear to take a look. Sure enough, what was impaled on the head of the spear was a parasitic monster with teeth and claws.

Perhaps he got into the ashes to ambush a church priest who might be able to recover weapons. This guy was covered in black and dirty ashes. He didn't look like a monster controlled by a parasitic core of a human face. Instead, he looked like a digger from a coal mine. Coal miners.

At this time, not only was this guy's chest pierced by Kil's spear, but a vine root protruding from his mouth was also dark and weakly swinging on his face.

Kil laughed, waved the spear in his hand with both hands, and deftly chopped the guy's torso into several pieces in the air. In this way, even if the core of the human face on the torso was not destroyed, the human body was broken into several pieces. It is no longer a parasitic body that the flesh demon parasitic monsters can use normally.

In other words, this guy got his fix.

With that settled, Gere turned his horse and charged toward the charred terrain again. This time, the blood-licking grass was more courageous due to its previous experience. It felt that the so-called flames and smoke were nothing more than that. When it and its owner were charged like this, they were trampled and knocked away.

You can't hurt it at all, Lu Lu Lu Lu!

Keir keenly noticed the emotional changes of his animal companion and praised loudly: "That's it! Be brave, my friend! Go for it!!"

The war horses galloped past, their huge iron hooves stamping out the flames and bringing up large areas of soft, charred soil. The wind they carried with them also blew away the smoke that interfered with their vision and sense of smell.

Kil's spear leaned forward and stabbed again, dragging the parasitic monster ambushing in the ashes along the ground.

Due to the huge force and the continuous friction of the ground, this parasitic monster was broken into several pieces by the friction and impact of the ground before it had any obvious counterattack.

Kil turned his horse's head and stepped over the broken parasitic monster, stepping it into the soil.

The last parasitic monster in the ashes knew that humans had seen through the ambush and could no longer stay. It jumped out of the ashes and fled in any direction using its hands and feet.

But the hillside is gentle and covered with dirt and grass. Before this guy could run a few dozen steps, he was caught up from behind by Kiel on his war horse. He did not kill him with any weapons, but trampled him to pieces with his horse and trampled him into the soil. middle.

"Okay, well done, young man! Let's recover Priest Drizzt's staff now."

Gere slapped the head of the metal horse helmet attached to the blood-licking grass vigorously, and steel and steel made a clanging sound.

This made Blood Licker shake the pair of horse ears protruding from his helmet in dissatisfaction.

-

Kil jumped off his horse and used the spear in his hand to push aside the remains of shrubs that were instantly turned to ashes on the road ahead, so as not to stain the armor and cloak on his body.

He came directly to the center of this scorched earth. There was nothing here, but after he poked the ground in the center with the tip of his spear, there was indeed a clear sound of metal collision.

It seemed that the priest's move was very powerful, as most of the long staff penetrated into the soft field ground.

Listening to the sound and judging the position of the long stick, Kil reached out and touched the ground a few times, and then held the end of a long stick that was still hot at this time.

He pulled it out with force, and the whole long staff, which was still hot, was pulled out from the ground.

The long staff was hot and about one and a half meters long. I don’t know if any other materials were added to it. The entire long staff pulled out from the ground was not stained with mud or black ash, and the staff still had the power of the Sun God visible to the naked eye, exuding Bits of white light danced outward.

"It's quite hot." Kil muttered, feeling the temperature rise on his right hand, and immediately changed his hand to hold it carefully.

Then he jumped on his horse, switching hands with the glowing hot metal staff all the way, and quickly rushed to the lumberyard.
