LOL: The dark goddess covets me!

Chapter 91 Gwen: Is that Isolde? !
Before Illaoi, the Baru allowed the pirate city in the west to land outsiders, but completely ignored these creatures who were "slightly better than the undead".

And since Illaoi passed the trial of Naga Kaporos and became the true one, leading the Baju Sect for so many years, she broke the tradition and intended to protect the people of Bilgewater, and believed that there were people there who could pass the trial of the gods, Be a devout believer.

The few Baju temples that Bilgewater was able to build were thanks to the efforts of Illaoi.

But the development of Bright Sentinel is completely opposite.

Over the past few hundred years, due to the outbreak of the Ruinous Curse and the martyrdom of 17 elders of the Shining Light Tower, the Bright Sentinel dedicated to the development of weapons that can fight against the undead has become the largest organization.

Back when there was order in Bilgewater, Bright Sentinel strongholds could be seen everywhere in the city.

It’s just that the essence of the Hailiya system is entirely based on the premise of “quality”, and most Fuguang Island scholars have never delved into politics.

The inferiority of human nature shows that the disintegration of Bilgewater is only a moment away.

The Light Sentinels removed almost all their strongholds, leaving only the main sanctuary in the mountains.

If it weren't for the fact that the Python Islands are the place where the black mist invades the most, and Baru has close ties with the Blessed Island and Vasani, they would have evacuated this hopeless city long ago.

Survivors in the city are still counting casualties and property losses.

With the help of Naga Kaporos, the sudden and early arrival of Soul Eclipse Night did not cause the expected loss.

Baru guard Borut took Josh away from Gray Harbor, followed the path from the middle of the pier to the Baru Grotto.

At the end of a narrow path, a suddenly rising rock wall blocked the way of the three of them.

"Just a moment please."

Borut turned his head and confessed, then stepped forward to reach out and pressed heavily on a slightly invisible raised position on the rock wall.

Afterwards, the breath of magic drove the gears of the mechanism to rotate, completely blending with the rock wall and seamlessly fitting together, and the stone gate, which was not visible from the outside, slowly opened to both sides.

An empty hall perfectly hidden in the rocks suddenly caught the eyes of the three of them.

"We are here, Master Russell."

Borut smiled back, made a "please" gesture, and then led the way into the hall.

Unlike the Baru people, the Temple of the Sentinel of Light incorporates many of the styles of Hylia.

Very standard geometric symmetry figures such as triangles and rhombuses are engraved on the rock floor and stone walls, including the load-bearing columns, everything is meticulous and perfect, which is in stark contrast to the randomness, triviality and chaos of the Baju Temple in Rat Town.

There were not many sentries in the Temple of Light on the first floor, only a few young-looking apprentices were concentrating on studying the prayers engraved on the wall.

It wasn't until Borut took Josh and Gwen up to the second floor along the long spiral stone staircase in the center of the hall that the deserted temple could feel the popularity... and the smell of blood.

Most of the sentinels who returned to the temple at this time were injured during the resistance against the black mist last night.

A thick and deep mature male voice floated from not far away, echoing in the empty hall: "Look who this is? It's really a rare visitor!"

If you haven't seen him, hear his voice first.

Josh and Gwen looked in the direction of the source of the sound at the same time, only to see a burly man in a sentry robe with a smile on his face, and quickly walked up to him.

The man is about two meters tall, and his brown-black hair is almost shaved, leaving only a small piece of long hair on the top of his head and the back of his head tied into a ponytail, which connects to the thick beard on his cheeks.

The bald tattoo on his right side has a tentacled white Baru imprint, which is almost the same as the pattern on his thick arms, but the color is different from the ordinary Baru tattoo.

A pair of off-white eyes are piercing, shining with determination, and there is a sturdy aura common to Baru people all over his body.

"Levi, brother! I have brought you a guest."

Borut also laughed loudly, patted the shoulder of the strong Baru who just came, and introduced to Josh:
"This is Levi, the person in charge of the Bright Sentinel's Python Archipelago branch. This guy is a veteran who has personally resisted the black mist more than ten times!"

Later, Borut said to Levi: "As for this..."

"I received a magic message from Baju Temple last night."

Levi focused his eyes on Josh, and bowed to salute with a sense of respect in his tone.

"Grandmaster Josh Russell, welcome back... Boss, she will be very happy."

Josh smiled bitterly, "It's not bad if she doesn't peel my skin."

"You are too serious, the boss is after you... Forget it, I don't dare to say more about this, you should ask her directly when the time comes."

Hearing what Levi said, Josh suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

【Um?It seems that the little fox has changed a lot in the past 1000 years. 】Lunicia couldn't help being amazed.

Levi thought briefly, "The Sentinel's headquarters is at Haven Sea Cliff in Demacia, and it takes at least a month's voyage from Bilgewater.

"Now that Soul Eclipse is attacking earlier, the boss will definitely take the fast boat, and it should only take half a month to arrive."

"It's still half a month..."

"Don't worry, you are the boss's lover. As the host of the Manghang Islands branch, I will definitely treat you well!"

Levi, who inherited Baju blood, chose Bright Sentinel, so he would naturally get in touch with people from other regions. He didn't have the traditional xenophobic thinking of the Baju people, but he was very familiar with it.

Seeing that the two were almost acquainted, Borut took the initiative to bid farewell: "I still need my help at the Baju Temple, so I will leave first."

Watching Borut's figure disappear into the spiral staircase, Levi continued to say to Josh: "Master Russell, let me show you around and introduce this place!"

……

……

The structure of the Sentinel Sanctuary in the Python Islands is not complicated, and there is a big gap compared with the Temple of Light on Fuguang Island thousands of years ago.

It is divided into five floors. Except for the first floor where theoretical knowledge and prayers are learned, and the fifth floor where the sentinel leaders used to live and are now free, the remaining three floors are divided into small areas.

But on the whole, the second floor mainly serves the functions of research, medical treatment, conferences and training, and is the main place for the activities of the Sentinels.

The third floor is the area related to board and lodging, where the residences of the sentinels are located.

The fourth floor is more important, it belongs to the storeroom for storing materials, holy stones and various magical artifacts that can deal with the black mist.

Usually, the stairs from the third floor to the fourth floor are locked by iron doors with double safety of rune locks and mechanism locks. Only Levi and the logistics executives in charge of management have the keys.

After a quick and simple introduction, during breakfast, Levi led Josh and Gwen to the restaurant on the second floor.

Since the time of departure, counting the dinner time before the previous battle against Foego, Josh has not eaten for almost a day.

In addition to the consumption of casting magic, his chest was already hungry and his back was pressed against his back.

After waiting for the rich seafood soup, grilled fish and fragrant toast, Josh was not too polite, and immediately gorged himself, having a good meal, as if he hadn't eaten in a few lifetimes.

In fact, Josh hadn't eaten anything for nearly two centuries when he was in a state of stagnation in time.

Even before Zilan's tower is independent of the timeline, there are many hearty delicacies, the body does not need it, and eating is only a waste of time.
And Gwen is not a human being in the true sense. It is the interweaving of rune magic, spiritual magic and Isolde's soul fragments, which produces an extremely wonderful magical reaction and obtains a free body.

Even if the internal organs are complete, it is no different from the human body structure.

As a special "magic species", she does not need to eat and cannot obtain any energy from food.

On the contrary, Gwen had to consume mana to completely decompose the food scraps he ate.

However, it was the first time for Gwen to come into contact with human food in a real sense, so naturally he had to taste it.

As for the magic power consumed, it can be replenished after a short rest.

After finishing the meal, Levi left in a hurry as if he had received some bad news.

Since Josh had just returned to reality, he was not familiar with the operation of the Sentinel of Light, which had been developed for thousands of years, and could not help him much.

Moreover, he hasn't rested for a long time, and the world rune fragments have no effect on his spirit, but they put a lot of pressure on his body.

Before leaving, Levi specially arranged for a logistics sentinel to prepare a room for Josh and Gwen to rest.

Because of the limited space in the temple, each bedroom here is far less spacious than the suites in Fuguang Island, and it is probably a standard single room.

There is only a single bed in the house, a wardrobe, a desk and chair, and a storage box for storing items placed on the bed.

For bathrooms and toilets, go to separate communal areas for men and women.

Josh doesn't care about the living environment, as long as he can practice.

But for Gwen, just a room of this size made her very excited.

"Wow! Is this my room?"

Gwen rushed into the room and sat on the bed, then got up and opened the desk drawer, opened the storage box to check, and finally opened the not-so-large wardrobe by the wall.

"This is the first time I have my own room! I am so happy!"

Gwen looked back at Josh and blinked her beautiful eyes, "Can I borrow some fabric and needlework to make clothes?!"

She opened her arms to indicate the empty closet, "I want to make a lot of beautiful clothes to fill this closet...Of course, I can also make clothes for you and others~~"

Part of Gwen's personality follows that of her master Isolde. After she becomes a human being, if there is no threat from Viego, she will most likely inherit Isolde's mantle and become an excellent tailor.

"I can discuss it with Levi, but before that..." Josh pointed out of the bed, "You should rest first..."

Before Josh could say the word "rest", he saw that Gwen's originally happy expression suddenly changed, and his whole expression suddenly became sad.

"Gwen? What's wrong with you?"

Gwen bit her lip and didn't answer. She walked past Josh, ran out the door, and looked towards the side of the corridor.

[There is a very faint familiar smell, I almost didn't feel it. ] Lunicia reminded, 【It seems to have the same origin as the little doll. 】

Josh raised his eyebrows slightly, stepped out of the door and stood beside Gwen, following her gaze.

There was no one else in the corridor, only the tall and short sentinels who had just passed by the door.

And Gwen's hesitant eyes were fixed on the young woman who looked a generation younger than the man.

"Is that... Isolde?!"
