Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 799 130. Blake Shaw has an ugly heart

When he was secretly talking with the Pope in Drustvar before, Blake handed over the whereabouts of the "Guardian of Truth" to the Church of the Holy Light. On the one hand, the battle in Stormsong Valley really needed this artifact with the effect of protecting the darkness to appear. .

  , on the other hand, is also meant to attract some.

   Although it is somewhat trivial to discuss business with a group of sincere believers, a real exchange of interests can better stabilize the relationship between the two parties.

   Not to mention, as long as the guardian of truth, the artifact shield, is still in the hands of the Holy Light Church, they will always show some sympathy when dealing with issues related to Black.

   This is also one of the ways pirates expand their influence. If he claims his famous name, he will always give some sweetness to those who already trust him.

   So far, it looks good.

   It can be seen from the fact that Dasuohan agreed to extract Tyr's divine power from the Guardian of Truth, the "reputation" of the Holy Light Church, and Blake's hard work finally achieved "worship".

After the remaining divine power on the Titan Shield was extracted, this "lazy" shield did not seem to have changed much. The Holy Light Connection is obviously much more active.

   seems to remove a layer of "heavy things" and reawaken its inner strength.

   "Hold it, I mean, pour your holy light into it."

  Black took a step back.

   As an assassin and warlock, he didn’t like this kind of bright power very much, and he commanded next to him:

   "The weapons cast by these Titan Guardians will have different feedbacks on different strengths, and their forms will change according to the user's strength attributes.

  Inject your power into it, and it transforms into the shape that best suits your swing.

   Don't worry about breaking it.

   It is much stronger than most of the matter in this world. "

   Dasuohan nodded.

   But instead of injecting his own holy light immediately, he summoned a group of priests who accompanied him, and arranged a barrier that could absorb holy light inside and outside the room.

  Obviously, Dathohan knew that their mission had to be kept secret, especially since Partrice had been stared at by dark eyes before, so they couldn't make it too conspicuous.

   This caution made Black give the big knight a big thumbs up.

   Worthy of being the great knight most trusted by the Pope, he maintains a low-key and always reassuring action pattern.

   After everything was ready, Dathohan poured his holy light into the shield in his hand under the watchful eyes of several high-ranking priests.

  The light remained steady and bright, but after being absorbed by the shield, it transformed into a golden flame covering the heavy shield and the long sword in Dassault's other hand.

  The flame burned, but it did not emit a scorching aura. A priest next to him exclaimed. He saw with his own eyes that the Titan holy relic in the hands of the great knight was burning under the fire of holy light, and there was a sign of melting.

This!

   It is so easy to be melted, could it be that what they brought back from the island full of ancient vrykul grievances was a fake?

   "Holy Light."

   Dassault, who was enveloped in the flames fired by the shield, also let out an exclamation.

   But he doesn't think that the holy relic that he has been holding is a fake, he just perceives the mutation when the shield in his hand melts more clearly than others.

   That divine power from ancient times was "communicating" with him.

   It's like an ancient being is using this shield as a medium, examining him, observing him and judging whether he is qualified to wield this artifact that was born in the dark age and has been guarding since its birth.

   "Strong Will! Dathohan! Its remake is almost complete!"

  Blake felt a trance in the spirit of the great knight, he put his hands to his mouth and shouted:

   "Show it your will! Understand? This is the so-called 'truth oath' ceremony, and your oath should not be made to the Pope, but to him.

   'Truth Keeper' was never just the name of a weapon.

   That is a title.

   That represents the embodiment of a person's best character. If you can get it from Ygrim, the guardian of truth of the previous generation, it proves that you have this qualification.

   Be him.

  Da Suohan, this is the greatest contribution you can make to your faith in your lifetime of devout service to the Holy Light. Become a guardian of truth! "

   In Black's shout, Dasuohan, who was wrapped in the holy light, took a deep breath. He half-kneeled to the ground in the flames, as if taking an oath, and raised the shield in his hand that changed shape in the light.

   He raised his head as if looking directly at the invisible thing in front of him.

   He let the vague eyes fall on him, he was accepting the scrutiny of the sages, and silently recited the guardian oath in his heart.

   "But 'truth' is not one of the virtues of chivalry."

   Beside Blake, Miss Partrice, who had changed into her priest's robe, whispered:

   "Only the mages of Dalaran will speak this word. For us believers, the Light is the only truth, and we will guard it, but we cannot question it."

   "No, little girl, it is your virtue from today. As long as Dassault and his shield are still a day, you will swear by the truth."

  Black grinned, which made Partrice stunned for a moment.

   But there was one more word that Black did not say, and that was a terrible blasphemy for believers.

  The pirate stared at Saidan Dasuohan, who was performing the oath ceremony in front of him. His eyes narrowed under the blindfold, thinking in his heart:

   "The Holy Light is not the only truth, it is not even always correct, the only light leads one to direction, but also leads one to blindly get lost.

   This truth may be understood later. "

   Of course, if he said such a thing on this occasion, even if Black had a great reputation in the Church of the Holy Light, he would definitely be beaten by a group of priests around him.

  These tearful believers inspired by the "miracle" in front of them will swarm and teach the stinky pirates what the wrath of the Holy Light is with the "iron fist of love".

   Well, no doubt they will do it.

   After a few minutes, the flames around Dassault's body dissipated little by little, and he still maintained his half-kneeling oath, but in his hand, the simple and smooth shield had completed a new transformation in form.

   Its shield became wider and split below, as if a door of truth had been opened, and golden flames lingered over the cracks in the shield, filling the gaps.

   Around the shield, six ray-shaped shield spines extending outward are like artistic light extensions, and a rotating aperture shield surface is set off in the center of them.

  A golden light is wrapped around it, which makes the shield look thick and adds a touch of artistic sense of belief.

In addition to the shield, the oath-bearer sword held in Dathohan's left hand has also changed, and it seems to be more in line with the heroic fighting style of the great knight. Light's Fire recreates a flail.

  A silver chain extends under the golden handle, and at the bottom of the chain is a spiked iron ball shaped like the hammer of the morning star.

  The shape of the iron ball is also very particular.

   is like a small sun emitting light and heat, and the spikes covered outside its sphere are daunting. This thing is full of deterrence, and even seems a bit barbaric.

   Once it is swung, it can definitely easily smash the opponent by hitting the enemy's head.

   "I have completed the ritual of the oath, and I will spend my life fulfilling it."

   Da Suohan stood up and looked at the heavy shield in his hand that had established a holy connection with him and the new weapon in his hand, he waved it slightly, as if he was waving his own arm.

  Without the slightest sense of hysteresis, the movement is incredibly smooth.

   The shield that looked heavy, seemed to have no weight at all.

   "This is truly a miracle of the Holy Light!"

The priests around    recited the scriptures in unison to commemorate today's events, and the priest Partrice, who was beside Blake, covered her heart, and she whispered:

   "When I looked at it, I felt courage rising from my heart, which is definitely not an illusion."

   "Of course this is not an illusion. That shield will actively protect all creatures of order. This is the power that was set when it was first created."

  The wicked Blake carefully frightened the young and innocent Pastor Partrice behind him, saying:

   "You should be glad that you don't have a dark secret in your heart, otherwise when you look at it, you will be blinded by the emblem of the holy fire, or even worse.

   was ignited by the sin in his heart, screaming and dying. "

   "No, Black, the power of this shield doesn't work that way."

   Dassault murmured:

   "Don't scare them."

  The great knight placed the flail on the table beside him, raised the shield in his hand, and the emblem of holy fire that swirled around the center of the large shield remained as smooth as a mirror before.

   It is clear enough to reflect human faces.

   Da Suohan looked at the shield in front of him, he saw a clear self in the reflection, not only his face with a heavy helmet, but also his younger self who was immersed in war and killing.

   It was more like a reflection of his own soul.

   "I finally understand why you must ask us to get this artifact before the battle with darkness begins."

   Dasuohan stroked the mirror-smooth surface of the shield, he turned his head and said to Black:

   "There is no room for darkness in the world it reflects, and those evil things hiding here can no longer maintain their evil disguise in front of the guardian of truth.

   This is the revelation artifact used to reveal the true darkness. "

   "It's not that useful."

  Blake rubbed his forehead with a headache, and said to Dasuohan:

   "It's not a mirror. Well, that's how it works. But you can't ask evil to look in the mirror obediently. Hold it up, Dassault, and spread its light of revelation.

   The hidden darkness will be revealed in that light, and that's what I want you to get it for. "

  The great knight nodded, raised the guardian relic with one hand, placed it on his chest, and the power of the summoned shield was spinning again, spreading the light of revelation outward.

   It was like a layer of light shining, everyone in the room was illuminated by the light, and the other priests were unaware, but Black let out a painful cry.

  Hold his hands in front of him and took a few steps back. A cloud of smoke and dust that seemed to be scorched by high temperature floated around him. This scene made Miss Partrice's eyes widen.

   Ah, sure enough!

   This smelly pirate is an evil one!

Look! He was injured by the light of the Divine Shield.

   "This joke is not funny, Blake, you will be considered by my comrades as an evil spirit possessed by darkness."

   Dasuohan said in a deep voice.

   The stinky pirate, who was still in pain just now, looked like a vampire shone by the sun, and immediately put down his arms, the pain on his face disappeared, he pouted his pipe and said:

   "Hey, there's no sense of humor at all. I really like your expressions just now. Just now, the light in the eyes of several priests was beating, and they wanted to pick up warhammers and staffs to kill me.

   Well, it seems that my popularity with you is really not very good. "

   "Be serious."

  The Great Knight shook his head helplessly, and put the Guardian of Truth by his hand.

   He gestured to the others and said:

   "You go and arrange first, the Pope will arrive tomorrow, and be sure to remove everything in the town that will hinder the Holy Light."

   "Let your lads and girls go to rest, we have already made arrangements nearby, these laymen will only scare the snakes by running around."

  Black sat at the table next to him, blowing smoke rings and saying:

   "They'll know what they need to do before the action starts."

"Um."

   Da Suohan nodded and waved his hand, and the priests in the room quickly left. After the last person left, the originally relaxed Blake's face immediately collapsed.

   He rubbed his shoulders and complained:

   "You must have done it on purpose just now, right? Hit me with the light of revelation from that **** shield, and I almost got seriously injured by you."

   "I'm just concerned about your situation, Blake."

  The Great Knight frowned and said:

   "The Guardian of Truth can't discern your power tendencies, it almost attacked you, and it seems that you have indeed gone a long way on the dark road."

   "No, I'm a very pure person myself, I just have some not-so-good powers residing in my body. It can't understand my existence, which is normal."

  The pirate pouted and blew a smoke ring, jumped off the table, walked to the shield of the Guardian of Truth that was placed on the ground, looked at the smooth mirror-like shield in front of him, and said nonchalantly:

   "It's just a shield that doesn't understand anything, it."

   Halfway through Black's words, he suddenly got stuck in his neck.

   This made Dasuohan, who turned around to pack up his armor, a little puzzled. He turned around and saw the pirate crouching before the shield, still reaching out and touching the shield emblem.

   he asked:

   "What's the problem, Blake?"

   "Uh, no problem."

  The pirate gently stretched out his hand and pulled up his blindfold. With his own eyes, he looked at the reflection on the shield emblem in front of him.

   has always been full of confidence, but he was in control of everything, but he showed a rather strange expression at this moment, he looked at the round shield emblem like a mirror in front of him.

   Reflected on it was Blake's face, and even the expression on his face was reflected vividly.

   But on this [Mirror of the Heart], which claims to be able to see the depths of the soul, behind Blake's reflection, there seems to be a faint shadow hidden.

   is like a strange shape with two sides, like a body with two faces.

   One in the light and one in the shadow.

"No way."

  Blake touched his face and whispered in a weird tone:

   "Is this a prophecy made by the old man Dai Lin? Is my soul so ugly? Hey, Dassault, it looks like your thing is broken, why don't you lose it and get a new one?"
