Chapter 168

"The Horcrux was buried in the Baru Temple?"

Hearing Sarah's question, Zell withdrew his hand pointing at the map.

"This is the result of Drizzt's divination with cards. He said that there are many institutions there, so we'd better bring someone who can speak Baru."

"If this is the case, we must seek help." Sarah frowned, and said in an unquestionable tone: "We need Illaoi."

"Is the real one free? If not, we can call a Baru guide."

"Ordinary Baru people are not as talkative as Illaoi. They reject ordinary people. Only Illaoi is the exception who is willing to shelter Bilgewater. I guess she should come, this is her duty." Seemingly remembering something, Sarah shook her head and said, "No, she has to come."

"what happened?"

"The root of the last night of soul eclipse was in Gray Harbor. Illaoi and I suffered heavy losses and tried our best to hold the position. Although she summoned the power of Naga Kaporos to purify Gray Harbor and repel the dark heroes Hecarim, but the temple was also destroyed under the impact of the undead army, and now it is in ruins, and ordinary Baru people may not be able to help."

"Then please take us there."

Sarah showed a charming smile: "There is no rush, the dishes are all ordered, no matter how you say it, you have to finish eating before going. As for the drinks, let's return them, and don't drink while doing business."

……

After lunch, the group checked out the room and left the Baron Hotel, and took a gondola to transfer from the slum market to the pier port.

Walking on the steps of the bounty list, seeing the Empress of Bilgewater with three foreigners and the lovely Poro in her arms, it is not an exaggeration to say that the return rate is [-]%.

Fortunately, everyone just watched, but no one dared to do anything to them.

Everyone knows that Miss Fortune is busy contacting Baru to solve the disaster of black mist in Gray Harbor.

At this time, the purpose of attacking Sarah was to not make Bilgewater feel better, and would be attacked by a group.

Sarah led the three of them to the Baru stronghold in Bilgewater, and explained the relationship between Baru and Port Bihar like a guide.

"In the eyes of Baru people, we ordinary people who don't respect the goddess and don't respect the tradition are just a little bit better than the undead, which is disgusting. So they sealed themselves in the grotto and refused to contact us on weekdays. I just rely on You can only say a few words to Illaoi because of the thin face of the ruler."

"I've heard that Illaoi brought the Serpent Mother teachings to Bilgewater."

"Yes, but she alone can't change the minds of all Baru people. Hundreds of generations of real people before her have turned a blind eye to Bilgewater. She can defy tradition and build several snake mothers in Bilgewater. The temple is already amazing."

Speaking of which, Baru was the original owner of Bilgewater.

They have settled down in the Python Islands since a long time ago. Bilgewater is just a deserted island in the southernmost part of the archipelago. A place where outsiders are allowed to log in.

Due to the unique geographical location of Bilgewater, pirates were constantly attracted to establish a city-state here.But these outsiders neither worship the goddess nor respect the traditions, let alone wash away the filth on the pier with clear water, but build permanent anchorages along every beach in the bay.

They wantonly slaughtered the sea monsters regarded as holy beasts by the Baru people. The blood-stained sea kept the holy beasts from approaching Bilgewater, and also made them lose the protection of the sea god when the night of soul eclipse came. Many priests believed that Ordinary people are swallowed by the black mist voluntarily.

And Illaoi was able to withstand such great pressure and spread the teachings to Bilgewater, where the sewage was flowing, it can be described as extraordinary courage.

"This is the Baru Caves, Illaoi's stronghold in Bilgewater."

While speaking, Sarah led a group of people to the entrance of a grotto.

The cave is in a remote corner of the Dock Market, and the walls are covered with plantain-like plants with leaves big enough for a poro to run on.

The totem-shaped stone platform torch burns blue flames, which reminds Zell of another name for the Python Islands, the Blue Flame Islands.

This is the name given to this island by foreigners who have just arrived, and the Python Islands named by the Baru people are orthodox.

"I am Sarah Fortune, the ruler of Bilgewater. I have something to ask to see the Baruzhen. I already know the reason for the formation of the black mist in Gray Harbor."

The three of them didn't speak, so Sarah stepped forward to talk to the Baru guards guarding the entrance of the cave.

The dark-skinned guards tied their dreadlocks into bundles, and wore only a waistcoat and apron made of thick hemp rope, revealing large ink-colored tattoos in the shape of tentacles.The face is covered with black tattoos, depicting the countless teeth in the huge mouth of the sea monster, which is intentionally scary.

In addition, Zell also noticed a lot of brass rings on the limbs, both offensive and defensive.

He speculated that this should be Monk Baru, who followed Illaoi to Bilgewater to act as a guard.

With the empress' prestige, Sarah made the monk look at them with dismissive eyes.

He asked a few people to stop in front of the cave, and went in to inform Illaoi.

Sarah turned around and said: "This cave is actually much bigger than it looks, and there are caves inside. In the depths of the cave, there is also a wishing well connected to Baru, which is to pay taxes for those who did not pay tithes to the sea. use."

"Tithes?" Gwen repeated in confusion.

"If you don't pay a tithe, the sea will boil and the mountains will shake. If you want to pass through this sea area safely, then you must not owe the sea debt, otherwise the titan in the abyss will come up to you to collect the debt."

"What will happen?"

"Nautilus will throw a huge anchor to cut through the keel, and then put iron hands on the deck to hold the ship down. No matter how big the ship is, it will be smashed into planks, and all the crew will be dragged into the deep sea ..."

Seeing Sarah's unfathomable expression, Gwen shrank her head: "How do you know such details."

"Of course it's because I saw it with my own eyes." Sarah giggled.

Listening to Sarah's unrestrained laughter, Roy put her hands on top of Gwen's head and said, "Don't worry, we came here by airship, and the deep-sea titans can't control the sky."

"I do not know."

Sarah shrugged, and just as she finished speaking, she heard a thunderous voice behind her.

"What my goddess wants is the respect of mortals. Only those who respect the sea will open their way to life."

It was a stalwart woman, her figure was as strong as an iron tower, and the totem stone ball on her shoulders was as heavy as an anchor, depicting the terrifying face of some kind of huge sea monster.

Seeing her, Sarah folded her smiling face and crossed her arms, showing the majesty that a superior person should have, even with some coldness.

"Illaoi, come talk, I have the news you want."
