What bad thoughts can a paladin have?

Chapter 102 Ancient Temple
"Tsk, having a good teacher is really enviable."

Hearing what the female mage said, both Ren and Angelica had a hint of envy in their tone.

What is leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade?
This is it!

With a glance at this pistol, Ren knew the craftsmanship of the hill dwarves of the Tumgrey Empire.

At this point in time, only they can manufacture such exquisite firearms.

This huge empire, which generally believed in the "tyrannical king", relied on the current emperor's iron fist to centralize power, and took the lead in launching the magical industrial revolution.

Although it will take some time for the current Tumgray Empire to create a magic core that can be used for both military and civilian purposes, a new type of pistol similar to that of a female mage has already begun to take shape.

Although the range of this pistol is nearly half that of a crossbow, its power at close range is one-third higher than that of an ordinary crossbow. In addition, the revolving magazine can load six rounds at a time, and it can be fired continuously .

Most importantly, this kind of pistol is small in size, light in weight, quick to reload, and can be mastered without too much training, so it is quickly favored by spellcasters.

Although the cost of such a pistol is high, the real masters are not the ones who are short of money, and they don't care about this little money at all.

As for those law dicks who have just embarked on the path of mages?

Let's save enough money to buy spell scrolls for learning spells before talking about this!

"Good teacher? Maybe."

There was such an inexplicable meaning in Leolina's tone.

She put the pistol into the pouch at her waist, tapped her chin towards the corpses of the two tiefling soldiers on the ground, and signaled Ren to clean up the battlefield.

"Do you want to see what's on these two guys?"

Soon, the kind-hearted Renn found a lot of spoils from the two corpses.

In addition to their equipment, such as mail shirts, refined great axes, composite longbows, and two pots of arrows, the paladins also found a set of bone keys, and less than fifty golden eagle coins.

"These keys seem to be used to open doors elsewhere."

After weighing the key in his hand, Ren turned his gaze to the direction the two came from.

With the inextinguishable torch in his hand, he could faintly see the closed marble door not far away.

The three of them jumped over the corpse, holding torches, and walked in the direction where the Tiefling warrior had just come.

When the three of them approached, they found a simple emblem engraved on the closed marble door.

On the stone gate, a big black hand covered with ferocious veins was carved with crude techniques, holding a gray-white bone scepter in the big hand.

Relying on his own religious knowledge, Ren recognized where this terrifying emblem came from at a glance.

"This is the emblem of the god of power and tyranny," Ren said in a deep voice, while looking at the female mage's waist.

Her small pistol came from the Tumgray Empire, the main place of belief of this crown prince.

"In other words, behind this door, there is likely to be a priest of the [Tyrannical King]?"

The female mage said in a deep voice.

Along the way, Ren also told her about the Ebon Society.

This evil organization was formed by the priests under the command of [The Tyrannical King], [God of Discord] and [Mr.

"It's very possible."

Ren nodded solemnly.

As a fellow clergyman, no one understands the difficulties of his colleagues better than the paladin.

"Ren, since there may be a priest of [Tyrannical King] behind this door, then, are there other two priests under the crown in the other three forks?"

Angelica spoke up.

After getting off the elevator, they found that there is a branch road on the north, east and west sides of the elevator, and on the south side of the elevator, there is a magnificent building, but it is too far away and there is no dark/dimm vision The three of Ren could only vaguely see the outline of the building.

And those two tiefling fighters came out of the fork in the north.

"Let's briefly investigate this area first, and then discuss the next step."

Ren thought about it and quickly made a decision.

Soon, the three of them checked the forks on the east and west sides.

The two forks ended in the same marble door as the one on the north.

However, a broken battle flag with mottled blood was planted next to the marble door in the east, and there were no signs around the marble door in the west, but Angelica, who was careful, relied on her intuition and was still on top of the door. A light, almost invisible sign was found on the ceiling.

It was a relief mask of a clown with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, looking down from the ceiling at everyone who entered and exited the door.

"The battle flag represents the [Lord of Disputes]," Leolina said softly, "As we all know, the broken battle flag dripping with blood is the divine emblem of that crown, and which clown mask represents, it is I don't need to say more."

This is [Mr. Mystery], the divine emblem of the priest whose priesthood is conspiracy and secrecy.

"Which side road shall we take first?"

Miss Ranger held a composite longbow and asked Ren.

"Don't forget, there is another place." Ren shook his head slightly, "Investigate there, maybe we can get some useful information."

When the three of them walked out of the fork and came to the building, they couldn't help but stop.

"This... this is absolutely impossible to be the work of those two stingy and greedy mine owners!" Looking at the magnificent temple in front of her, the female mage couldn't help but muttered to herself, "This must be a remnant from ancient times. remains!"

Presented in front of Rennes and the others was a magnificent temple.

Compared with the rough mines not far away, this building shows extremely superb construction skills.

When the three of Renn approached, the ground paved with black marble tiles even reflected the light of the torch.

When they entered the temple, everyone was amazed by the exquisite marble columns scattered around and the arc-shaped dome above.

However, it was the pool of black liquid placed in the center of the temple that most attracted the attention of Ryan and his party.

Without getting close, the three of them could sense the cold aura emanating from it.

Leolina, who had the lowest physique, even couldn't help shivering.

"Ren, this pool of water is a bit weird..."

The female mage whose face was pale from the cold said tremblingly.

As the most knowledgeable mage among the three, Leolina could feel the uneasiness and tension brought by the ancient and mysterious atmosphere in the temple.

"You two stay away from here, I'll take a closer look."

Turning his head and saying something to the two women, Ren relied on his strong physique and walked towards the pool.

"Ren, be careful."

Miss Ranger and Mage Meiyan looked at each other, and while retreating to a safe distance in tacit understanding, they each bent their bows and arrows, loaded their bullets, and were ready to support at any time.

Ren walked cautiously to the pool and looked into the pool.

Standing by the pool, even with his physique, he felt a bone-chilling chill.

According to Ren's consideration, if the temperature three meters away from the pool is just below zero, then the temperature next to the pool even reached about twenty degrees below zero.

The liquid in the pool was dark and viscous, exuding an ominous and evil aura.

Ren carefully threw a stone in, and saw that after the stone touched the black liquid in the pool, a layer of frost was quickly attached to the surface, and then it froze and cracked into a thin piece under the surprised eyes of the paladin. The stone powder sank to the bottom of the pool.

"What exactly is this?"

Looking at this scene, Ren frowned.But whether it was him or Leolina, the knowledge about occult science could not tell the origin of the water in the pool.

In the end, the paladin had no choice but to give up.

But he had a hunch in his heart that in the end, they might come here again.

Leaving this mysterious and ominous temple, the three went straight to the northernmost fork.

"crunch..."

With a tooth-piercing sound, after unlocking the lock on the door with a key, Ren pushed the heavy marble door open forcefully.

Under the light of the torch, the three of Renn could clearly see the scene behind the gate.

It was a room ten meters square. On the walls of the room, there were sets of armors, ranging from worn leather armor to rusty full-body armor.

However, facing this scene, the complexions of the three of Ryan were not very good, because in stark contrast to the dark, blood-stained armor on the wall, it was the snow-white skeletons in the armor, Among these skeletons are human, dwarf and orc.

The empty eye sockets of these skeletons looked at the gate, as if they were wary of intruders.

A mace was attached to the belt of these armors, and bells of various shapes and sizes were sewn onto the leather strips of the armors.

"Be careful, I smell the rotten breath of undead creatures! Leolina, try not to use spells!"

Ren stared at the skeletons in the armor in front of him, and while talking, he took the mace out of the dimension bag and held it in his hand.

To deal with these skeletons, smashing is obviously more effective than chopping!

"Jingle Bell--"

The chaotic sound of bells echoed in the silent room.

Pale soul flames emerged from the eye sockets of the skeletons. They stood up against the wall and took down the mace from their waists.

"Damn it! Make it quick! Try to kill all these guys before the reinforcements!"

Hearing the series of bells, Ren's complexion changed, he swung the Lightbringer, and hit its gray-white skull with a hammer, performing a craniotomy on it.

— Jump and chop!
——Strike hard!
Without waiting for the remaining ones to encircle them, Renn jumped behind these skeletons with a vertical leap, and blasted the head of the second skeleton with a hammer.

Feeling the shock force from the Lightbringer, Ren turned his wrist slightly. With this force, the heavy mace seemed to lose its weight instantly, and as Ren turned around, he drew a line in front of him. Perfect arc.

- Take advantage of the trend!

A skeleton wearing worn-out full-body armor was caught off guard, and its head was thrown dozens of feet away with a hammer by the paladin.

The skull rolled several times on the ground, and was finally crushed by a silver-gray high boot.

Under the joint attack of the three of Ryan, the dozen or so skeletons lasted for less than a minute before they all turned into bone slag on the ground.

Although the battle ended extremely quickly, the faces of Ren and others became more serious.

Because, the other side's reinforcements are here.

　The whole person is dizzy... Let me take a breather and eat something, Chapter 2 will be released around ten o'clock
