Chapter 182 The Monk's Monastery(1/2)

Statues are important props for gods to communicate with the mortal world. Gods can observe everything within a radius of several kilometers to dozens of kilometers around through the statues. This kind of vision can even penetrate walls. And large statues and temples can be observed.

The wider the range.

But this is not something you can just carve and use.

Usually, after carving a statue of a god, priests need to perform large-scale sacrifices, which can be understood as consecrating the statue. After that, the god can convey oracles to believers through the statue, and perform miracles and other abilities.

However, the statue that Pei Renli found was not only small, but also likely to have lost its usefulness long ago.

If no one prays for a long time, and if the gods themselves do not pay much attention to it, the statues will degenerate into ordinary stones again, as is the case with the statues placed in front of Pei Renli.

Hearing him say it was Peiro's monastery, others gathered around to take a look.

"So small? A monastery shouldn't have a big statue of a god, right?"

This is really unusual and feels a bit sneaky.

Pelor is the sun god and the god of light. His beliefs are allowed to be spread openly. After all, he is a good god. Generally, those who are secretive are the beliefs of evil gods.

Pei Renli raised his staff, looked at the surrounding walls and judged:

"Probably, this monastery is a product of the period of the god-killing demon king Balam."

Generally speaking, the existence of the Temple of the Good God is a good thing. It can provide excellent medical and health services. If there are any natural or man-made disasters, it will do its best to help with disaster relief.

But when the god-killing demon king Balam existed, he didn't care what kind of god you were.

He is strong against evil gods, and he can fight against good gods, and he will also beat up neutral people who are watching the show. During the period of Balam's existence, theocratic forces in the entire plane were dealt a fatal blow, and many small-scale churches were attacked.

Simply removed from the list.

It is estimated that because Balam killed too harshly, a group of Pero's followers went to this inhospitable place and established a monastery, thus preserving the fire of their faith.

It is not difficult to understand why the statues of gods are so secretive. Balam was such a powerful deterrent back then.

"It seems that it hasn't collapsed over there yet. Do you want to go take a look?"

There is a doorway on the left and right sides of the hall, but the one on the left has been blocked, so you can only go to the right to take a look.

After all, they haven't found the entrance connected to the underground cave that Uncle Muto said.

Because there are windows in the hall, some sunlight can shine in, but after entering the doorway on the right, it is pure darkness.

The air is filled with the smell of earth and spores, and occasionally you can see many mushrooms in the corners, including some that emit phosphorescence.

This shows that there is indeed an entrance to the underground nearby.

After turning a corner along the passage, everyone came to a room that seemed to be quite large. The door, like the main door, was rotten due to moisture, but they found a weapons rack here that was barely recognizable.

And some weird weapons.

"What's this?"

Moen held up a short metal stick and asked Perrenli. He might be the only one of them who knew what it was.

"Devil Breaking Cone."

"What is this?"

"Vajra."

"What about this?"

"Ten hands."

Pei Renli glanced around:

"These are weapons exclusively used by monks, and most people will not be trained to use them."

"Didn't you just say that this is Pelor's monastery?"

"There are many monks following Pelor, and there are not only priests in the temple."

With that said, Pei Renli released his spell-casting gesture. He had just used detection magic and did not find any magic aura nearby.

"In other words, these are all junk that cannot be sold?"

"That's pretty much it."

It is difficult to sell weapons and equipment with a very narrow audience at a high price, such as the Elven Curved Blade in Anna's hand. Not to mention that the equipment found now are all ordinary equipment without enchantment, which is too heavy to throw in a backpack.

That kind of.

After listening to Pei Renli's explanation, Moen angrily threw away the monk weapon he had just found. He thought it was some valuable decoration.

"Oh, I really want to find a treasure once."

Pei Renli said strangely:

"Are you short of money?"

"The important thing is the process, which will bring me inspiration for composing."

That's a good point, but Pei Renli thinks money is more important.

While the two of them were identifying the monk's weapons, Kaya and Luisa were leaning against the wall to search for possible underground entrances. When they reached the innermost place where there was a small door, everyone heard "Boom" at the same time.

' There was a sound, like something hitting the door.

The innermost door was not damaged, probably because it was painted with a layer of paint on the outside. A piece of wood acted as a door bolt and was stuck on it, causing it to rattle due to the impact from behind the door.

The four people immediately set up a fighting formation. Kaya looked back at Perenli and saw that he nodded, so Kaya stretched out her long sword and struck hard to open the door bolt.

Almost at the same time, the closed door panel was knocked open, and a stream of cold air that penetrated the bone marrow blew past everyone.

A series of crackling sounds from the joints, and pale white flame-like light spots lit up in the darkness. It was not until the next moment, when they walked into the lighting range of the light spell, that they realized that what had just hit the door was a group of skeletons.

The only and eternal goal of the undead creatures is to pull all living things into the ranks of the undead. Their chins, which have turned into bones, were stretched to the maximum, and they roared silently towards the four people...

–‐‐——–‐‐——

"So poor! Can't a monk have some personal assets?"

Moen squatted on the ground and after checking that there was nothing valuable on the skeleton, he made a sound of reluctance.

"That's because you didn't look carefully."

Louisa quickly took off a gold ring from the finger of the other skeleton. It seemed that the workmanship was not of high quality, but it was still gold.

This gave Moen inspiration, and he immediately turned around to see if there were still gold teeth in the skull's mouth...

——This guy is so cruel.

A total of more than ten skeletons appeared from behind the door, including the weakest skeletons and skeleton soldiers carrying weapons. However, even Pei Renli, who was still a weakling when he entered school, has changed. These skeletons are not

Everyone was plunged into a hard fight, and within a few seconds they were all finished, and the search for loot began.

Kaya stood nearby on guard to avoid being attacked by monsters while searching, while Perrenli frowned uncharacteristically as if thinking about something else.

He knelt down, picked up a piece of broken and rotten cloth, and tried to piece it back together into the skeleton's body.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm thinking these people are not priests or monks living in monasteries."

Pelor's followers like to wear bright yellow clothes, and they usually wear robes. This is because they believe that bright yellow is the color closest to the sun, and the robes are because Pelor often looks like a white beard and white hair holding a golden palm.

The image of an old man in a robe shows miracles.

However, the clothes on these skeletons are completely inconsistent with the habits of Pelor believers. Some of them can be seen wearing broken leather armor or iron armor.

The several tattered weapons were also of various kinds, but they were neither monk weapons nor the maces that Pelor's priests were so good at.

"These people should be adventurers who died in the sea of ​​trees."

Moen heard this and asked:

"But why are they here?"

Pei Renli picked up the door bolt that Kaya had opened and found that it was still new, with no signs of decay at all, as if it had been put up recently.

"It should be said why they are locked up here."

"Who!"

At this moment, the alert Kaya suddenly shouted.

Everyone turned around and saw a figure flashing past the passage they came in. They must have run away when they saw they were discovered.

Of course they couldn't let him run away casually, so the four of them immediately dropped what they were holding and went after him.

Because it was too dark and the range of the light spell was not very large, the four people chasing after them did not have dark vision. No one could clearly see what the fleeing guy was. They could only see a humanoid shadow running wildly.

After they chased them out of the passage, they returned to the hall at the main entrance of the monastery.

"Over there! He got under the wall?!"

Luisa pointed to one side and said, and everyone hurried over, and then they saw clearly that it was not under the wall, but a hole blocked by a few rotten boards under the wall.

The entrance to the cave looks new, and it must have caved in recently.

The four of them looked at each other, and Kaya took the lead and jumped down to continue tracking.

The cave is not deep, but it seems to be very long. The winding cave is about two meters high. It should be formed naturally, and there are no traces of artificial repairs.
To be continued...
