Chapter 459 The Last Priest
"Old God - Earth Shaker?"

hear This god, Shade was quite surprised, because he had heard of the old god.

The old god [Earth Shaking Worm] also has another well-known title, which is the "God of Earthquakes". Unlike the old god "earth python" related to sand, dust and soil that the doctor once mentioned, the main force of the old god "earth-shaking worm" is earthquakes.

Shade once read in his textbook that in the old times when civilization was still uncivilized, once an earthquake occurred, the local people would find the believers of this god to organize large-scale prayers and sacrifices. Activity.

But the old god is gone, and like Shade's acquaintance [the pure creator], he left in the fifth era. Moreover, [Earth Shaking Worm] is not a good god, this is a real Evil God, when he uses sacrifices to soothe "the wrath of the earth", he has to perform live sacrifices.

Shade glanced at the kind old man in front of her. She looked very different from the murlocs who also worshipped Evil God.

"Not only is he the last member of the sect, but I think he is also the last generation of priests."

Old lady Ilar shook her head with a smile, and Miss Avrolla also reported With a smile:

"The purpose of our visit this time is also made clear in the letter. This is the one, Hamilton"

She pointed to Shade holding the cat:

"I want him to feel the power of the great one you believe in."

"Oh, the youngsters from the city look very good."

The old man praised Shade's appearance, then reached out and grabbed his hand, and after a while nodded:

"No problem, he and the power of the Lord have no conflict."

The ring warlock is not capable of mastering any spirit rune. The conflict with its core spirit rune and the characteristics of the soul may lead to the rejection of some spirit runes.

The old lady Ilar probably used some kind of diving technique to confirm Shade's affinity for the power of the old god [Earth Shattering Worm]. This kind of diving technique is very common, and the Orthodox Church also has a similar diving technique, which is used to confirm whether they are suitable for learning the diving technique when cultivating the ring warlock.

"Very well, I can feel that this Mr. Hamilton is a good fit to be a priest of the gods. If he could have appeared fifty years earlier, I would have said nothing to let him join the order."

"Oh, that won't work."

Demoness still keeps that smile:

"Mr. Hamilton is mine."

"That would be a pity."

The old man shook his head, and the two maids finally boiled the hot water and started pouring tea for the three of them. The maids cleaned the teacup, but there were still stubborn yellow stains on the surface of the teacup. Shade noticed that Miss Avrolla didn't even touch the cup of tea, so she just took it up symbolically and didn't drink it.

In the subsequent chat, Shade also confirmed that his understanding was correct. The old lady Ilar is the last believer of the old god -【Earth Shaking Worm】, at least excluding individual believers, the last believer for the sect.

She is the last priest and keeper of the property and knowledge of the Order. Since it is almost impossible to find new believers, she is also uneasy about leaving the priesthood to strangers, so she decides to end the history of the entire order in her own generation.

Miss Avrora met her five years ago, and after thinking about it, the old lady Ilar decided to leave the property and secrets of the order to this powerful Demoness.

Other than helping guard the shrine and the frescoes that write the history of the order, and keeping strangers from breaking in and vandalizing, the old man made no other demands of Demoness. She thought that instead of burying those possessions deep in the ground and keeping those knowledge in dust forever, it would be better for the more powerful ring warlock to gain them, the power of the inheritance order.

This is also an alternative method to continue the history of the order.

And for Demoness, this is equivalent to the fact that after the death of the old man in front of her, she can get a large fortune, and all the knowledge and secrets of an entire order.

Shade is very envious of what happened to Miss Avrolla.

After chatting a few more words, the old man confirmed that what Shade wanted to get was the [shock] spirit rune, and after briefly asking some of his views on "earthquake", he told Shade that they were going to the old days 's temple.

The true shrine of the Earthquake God is underground, at the base of the ruins outside the town of Herkils.

The ruins of the town of Herkils are left over from the civilization of the early Sixth Century. When the archaeological team of the former Delarion Kingdom came to investigate several decades ago, the old lady Ilar also served as a guide. When she talked about that incident, she happily showed Shade and Demoness the photos taken at that time, and Shade actually saw her acquaintance in the photos, Professor Manning who lives in Cat Tail Lane, Tobesque University District silhouette.

Professor Manning several decades ago looked less old than he does now, standing with his mates, leaning on a shovel and smirking at the camera. And the old lady Ilar looked younger than she is now. At least she didn't use a cane in the photo, so she could stand there and take pictures by herself.

And when I heard that Shade actually knew the person in the photo, the old man actually took out all the photos of the archaeological activity in the album and handed it to Shade:

"Take it. Give these to your friends."

This was easy for Shade, but Shade asked hesitantly:

"Don't you want to keep them? These are memories. "

"The memory is here, not in the photo."

The old man smiled kindly, pointed to his head, and then said:

"I After death, these photos will probably be thrown away as garbage. Instead, they should be given to someone who can take good care of them."

Miss Avrolla winked at Shade, and Shade said The photos take over:
"Okay, I'll send them to Professor Manning. I'm sure the professor will be very happy when he sees these photos and thinks about his experience in this town."

The old lady Ilar opened her mouth and laughed, revealing a row of yellow teeth that were about to fall out.

The gods who have gone away have believers in the material world, and what kind of feelings these believers hold to continue to believe in gods, Shade can't understand at all.

He had met the last believer of the old god [Innocent Creator], but the other party turned into an angel and flew away on the spot. In front of the old lady Ilar, the situation was even worse. When Ms. Gina Angela Serwell was determined to close the underground ruins in Tobesque, she had at least two companions by her side, and the old lady Ilar only myself.

But at least she didn't seem sad or unacceptable because of it. After chatting with Shade and Miss Avrora for a while, she got up and took them to the ruins.

There is no rental carriage system in the town, so the entire group walks on foot. Fortunately, the town is not big, and the ruins are not far from the town.
