Strange Recovery was turned into an online game by me

Chapter 268 Black Truth Cult

Yu Xiao didn't have time to take a good look around the city.

A group of people in black uniforms, guns on their backs, and knives on their waists appeared in the field of vision. When the others saw this group, they all retreated left and right.

[Captain of the City Lord's Guard: Coker], level 20... Introduction: The head of the City Lord's Guard in the dungeon Luonan, possesses superb spear skills and superb physical skills.

[City Lord Guard: Xie Li], level 18...

[City Lord Guard: Bacon], level 18...

Doug hurriedly said to Yu Xiao: "This is a member of the city lord's guard, I'm afraid they are here to find..."

Don't wait for him to finish.

The captain of the guard of the city lord, Coker, came to Yu Xiao, gave a respectful military salute, and then said loudly: "Korkel, the captain of the guard of the city lord of Luonan, welcomes the investigator!"

Sure enough, they came to find me.

Yu Xiao is still thinking about where to find a breakthrough point.

Now it seems that although the scale of this dungeon is large, it is not completely without guidance.

These NPCs should be the guides for the main mission.

Having said that, is my status as an investigator so high? When I came to a completely unfamiliar city, I was immediately received by the city lord.

behind the investigator.

It is estimated that there is a very terrifying power behind it.

This is of course the best way, but you can use your own identity to directly ask the local snakes to cooperate. After all, the dungeon time is only seven days.

The chief guard of the city lord, Coker, continued: "Our lord, the city lord, has heard the news of your arrival, and specially asked us to meet you, and invited you to meet at the city lord's mansion."

"understood!"

Yu Xiao glanced at several members of the expedition group: "In this case, let's leave now!"

"Yes!"

Doug looked respectful: "My lord, hurry up and get busy with your affairs. If there is something that can be of use to us, please do not hesitate to tell us. We will definitely do our best."

Yu Xiao originally wanted to follow the guards directly.

Hear what Doug said.

He suddenly felt that it was necessary to leave a contact information with a few people. The game dungeon arranged for a few people to meet him, maybe it was not just as simple as a leading NPC.

What if it comes in handy later?

There are some gaps between the game copy and the real world.

Although the game copy is generated based on the real environment and events, there will be some changes and adjustments for gameplay and balance during the process of forming the copy.

If he met people like Doug and Thorne in the real world, Yu Xiao wouldn't think they were any different.

Can be encountered in the copy of the game.

If you enter a copy, you will inevitably encounter a situation.

Then there is a high probability that they are not just passer-by NPCs, there must be a reason why the game dungeon is designed this way.

Among them Doug and other explorers.

It looks very ordinary.

If you have to say who among these few people may trigger the mission or have an impact on the follow-up main line, then this person must be Thorne.

It's worth keeping an eye out for.

After Yu Xiao and several members of the expedition team left contact information with each other, they followed the chief guard of the city lord, Coker, to the city lord's mansion.

Luonan City is a ring-shaped city built around a mountain, and the hinterland of Luonan City Lord is built on the north mountain, like a strong fortress or fortress.

Yu Xiao is under the leadership of the guards.

Meet the castellan in the castle living room.

[Lord of the Luonan Dungeon: Edrat], level 20... Introduction: The ruler of the Luonan Dungeon is also a top-notch powerhouse, possessing great strength and profound knowledge.

Yu Xiao looked at the person in front of him.

The city lord of Luonan looks like he is 50 years old. He is tall and burly, with a full beard and meticulously combed hair. He has both the elegance and wisdom of a nobleman and the iron-blooded fortitude of a warrior.

"Welcome, my friend, your arrival is just in time!" The city lord Edrat stepped forward to greet him in person.

Yu Xiao immediately asked: "What does the city lord mean by saying this? Is there something unusual or troublesome about Luo Nan recently?"

Edrat said with a sigh: "In the past few years, a mysterious cult organization has emerged in the Luonan area, holding cruel sacrifice ceremonies everywhere, creating one incident after another of sabotage."

"Although Luo Nan has invested a lot of manpower and material resources, he still can't eliminate this evil force, so that they have become more and more rampant recently."

"Isn't the Investigator here for this matter?"

Cult organization?

A guy who goes around doing sacrifices and destroying things.

Could it be related to the ancient gods in the main line of the dungeon.

Yu Xiao didn't answer the question directly, but made a request directly: "I want the information of these cult organizations."

Edrat didn't get an answer to his question.

He didn't care either, since such a character appeared in Luo Nan, he must have a mission and purpose, but Luo Nan was a completely unfamiliar place to him.

in this environment.

Investigators probably won't trust anyone easily.

And most of them also include himself as the city lord.

Edrat immediately said: "Please rest assured, Investigator, as long as it is your request, we will do our best to cooperate and assist."

Done.

Let Coker take Yu Xiao to the archives.

If you need to inquire or ask any questions, you can also get to know through Cocker at any time.

"Master Investigator."

"All the information you want is here."

Coker dug out a pile of documents from the archives.

Yu Xiao also had difficulty facing such a huge amount of information. His time was very limited, and it was impossible for him to spend too much time looking up information.

"Korkel, how much do you know about this cult organization?" Yu Xiao was going to look for some clues from the captain of the guard first.

between speeches.

Yu Xiao's eyes glowed with golden light, and through spiritual perception and insanity, he secretly influenced Coker to tell the real situation he had learned.

Coker's eyes were a little dazed.

About two seconds passed.

Only then did he say: "This cult organization is called 'Black Truth Sect'. It was originally an academic organization in the Luonan area, mainly researching ancient knowledge and ancient documents in the ruins."

"In recent years they seem to have discovered the existence of some taboo, and the members of this organization have become crazy and aggressive."

"In the past year alone, there were 54 attacks in Luonan, causing thousands of casualties, and even launched five assassination operations against the city lord."

"..."

Yu Xiao used the method of mind control, and the captain of the guard told everything he knew.

When you understand these.

Yu Xiao fell into deep thought.

This Black Truth Cult is very suspicious no matter how you look at it. Even if the ancient gods were not awakened by them, there is a high probability that they are inseparable from them.

If they were the ones who caused the ancient gods to wake up, then things would become easier. The main line of the dungeon is ultimately a task of eradicating the cult.

If they were not the culprits for the awakening of the ancient gods, Yu Xiao could also use the black truth to understand this clue and follow the clues to find more truth and the secret of this dungeon.

Yu Xiao asked Coker another question:
"What kind of person do you think the City Lord is?"

While speaking, the golden light in Yu Xiao's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the spiritual power released became stronger and stronger.

The captain of the guard, Coker, is not bad, but he is only at the level of the top overlord or quasi-overlord.

Just this strength.

But he couldn't resist Yu Xiao's mental manipulation.

"The city owner was a powerful explorer when he was young. Since becoming the city owner of this dungeon, he has given up his dream of exploring the crypt and devoted all his energy to city governance."

"Since he has been in power for 15 years, the population of Luonan City has increased by 50.00%, and industry and commerce have also achieved unprecedented development. He is a good lord worthy of love."

The golden light in Yu Xiao's eyes gradually faded: "Understood, you go out first, I want to check the relevant information."

Coker snapped out of his trance.

Then he backed away confused.

Yu Xiao began to look through the materials at hand.

He found that the situation was similar to what Coker said.

What the Black Truth Sect has done in Luonan recently is no different from terrorist organizations and cult organizations.

but.

this organization.

It wasn't like that at first.

Black Truth has existed for quite a long time.

It is said that it appeared in Luonan more than a hundred years ago. The founder of this organization is a mysterious magician named "Merlin".

Huh?
Yu Xiao saw this.

The pupils shrank slightly.

Merlin?

This name.

It's hard not to attract Yu Xiao's attention.

The founder of the Black Truth Church is Merlin?

Could this Merlin be the same as the Merlin I knew?

in the case of.

Then this Meilin is very likely to be an A-level heroic spirit, just like Su Daji in Lanruo Temple, an extremely powerful heroic spirit that exists in a spirit body.

The dungeon that Yu Xiao challenged this time is a four-star dungeon. According to past experience and practice, the final boss of a four-star dungeon is likely to be a king-level unit.

If Merlin is the boss.

Then it is quite enough.

Yu Xiao then began to focus on searching for information about Merlin, but he went through all the information in his hand about the Black Church of Truth.

There are very few records about Merlin.

Because after Merlin founded the Black Truth, he left the Luonan area. Some people said that he lived in seclusion near Luonan, and some said that he was a traveler without a fixed place.

Yu Xiao couldn't even make an exact judgment.

Did this Merlin have the same name by coincidence, or was it just as he guessed, the other party was the famous mage Merlin.

Don't wait to learn more.

Yu Xiao felt a strong energy fluctuation.

Immediately, a violent explosion was heard from the direction of the castle hall, and the entire castle shook violently.

"What happened?"

Yu Xiao came out from the reference room.

Coker's face was full of anxiety: "No, someone attacked the castle and destroyed the outer barrier. It is estimated that it was done by the Black Truth Cult. Their target should be the city lord."

Yu Xiao frowned slightly.

Coker hurriedly said: "Master Investigator, my first duty is to defend the city lord, please forgive me for not being able to stay here."

Yu Xiao thought about it.

Since it was such a coincidence to catch up.

Just look at what's going on with these guys.

Yu Xiao then said, "I'll go and have a look with you."

Coker said happily: "That's really great, let's go to support it!"

The two headed towards the castle hall, but as soon as they passed through the first corridor, several fireballs entwined with lightning came across their faces.

"careful!"

"There is an ambush!"

Yu Xiao could feel it.

The energy contained in several fireballs is quite amazing.

He then took out Su Qin's shield from the storage space and blocked the sneak attack for Coker.

"hateful!"

"Sure enough, it's you again!"

Coker activated the alchemy implant, and released a pair of wings made entirely of metal from behind him.

next second.

The wings of the alchemy breeding outfit lit up.

Let Coker fly into the air in an instant, pull out a pair of thick rune pistols, and shoot at the front pillar.

Boom boom boom boom!
A series of energy bullets were shot out quickly, and the power produced by each bullet was no less than that of Iron Ghost's Burst Shot.

Several figures flashed out during the bombing.

Yu Xiao glanced over these people one by one.

[Priest of the Black Truth Church: Ernor], level 20... Introduction: As a priest of the Black Truth Church, you must not only have profound knowledge, but also possess powerful magical power.

[Black Truth Priest: Bray], level 20...

[Priest of the Black Truth Cult: Gera], level 20...

Yu Xiao noticed.

There are only three enemies in ambush here.

They were all wearing black hooded robes, and held a long staff in their hands. At this moment, a protective cover was condensed around their bodies, and Coker's bullets could not penetrate it.

not difficult to see.

These three black truth priests are all very strong.

Although Coker is the captain of the city lord's guard, his strength is only at the level of a top lord. If the addition of alchemy equipment is included, he can compete with the next overlord.

however.

These three people in front of me.

All have the strength of the second-order perfect overlord.

Although it is only at the lower level of the overlord, in a three-on-one situation, Coker has no chance of winning.

The three raised their staffs at the same time, lightning, frost, and wind blades, and attacked Coker in midair at the same time.

These magical attacks are quite powerful.

Coker didn't dare to resist, so he could only rely on the powerful mobility of the alchemy equipment to hover in the air to avoid these attacks.

"This guy's reproductive speed is too fast!"

"Get rid of the one next to it first!"

"Let him get in the way!"

A black priest's eyes fell on Yu Xiao who was still observing, then he raised his staff without hesitation, and shot a lightning bolt as thick as an arm at Yu Xiao.

This bolt of lightning crazily bombarded the shield, and the powerful energy generated caused the left and right pillars to burst.

however.

under such an attack.

Yu Xiao remained motionless.

"This guy has a strong defense, let's go together!"

The other two black priests also condensed lightning that was super destructive and could be released continuously, and blasted towards Yu Xiao's body fiercely.

"grown ups!"

Coker's face changed drastically upon seeing this scene.

He knew very well how strong these black priests were.

If he didn't have the alchemy plant on his body, he might not even be able to beat one of them, and now the three of them are teaming up to besiege the investigator.

however.

Not to Cocker rescue.

Yu Xiao directly withdrew the shield and let the electric light bombard his body, but he was still unscathed and almost unharmed.

"impossible!"

The three black priests were all dumbfounded.

"You guys call this an attack? It's almost as good as tickling me!" Yu Xiao said disdainfully, "Next, let me show you what is the real thunder and lightning!"

Yu Xiao condensed the yin and yang god thunder to bless the palm, then aimed at the position of the three of them, and directly released a palm thunder.
