Shelley led everyone through the checkpoint slowly, and the soldiers guarding the area held their heads high as if they were undergoing a military parade.
"Captain, are we just going to let them in like this??" Seeing the refugee group walking away, a guard couldn't help but said: "Let those group of country bumpkins go in like this. If the adults find out, they won't let us go!"
The leader of the team sat on the ground and wiped his armor: "What else should we do? Let the Eredar named Shelley summon his partners and then crush us all with one kick?"
"Don't lose your basic judgment! Those people are not something we can afford to offend!" The captain slowly stood up and said, "If you still have any objections, they haven't gone far yet, and there is still a chance to make up for their mistakes. "
After waiting for a while, everyone did not move. The captain smiled and said: "Hurry up and close the barricade again. Remember, we didn't see them today!"
The level has returned to calm.
Shelley and his team were also on the road discussing what had just happened. After listening to Mayor Gard's description, Clive said with a smile: "Captain Alvin always thinks one step further than me!"
Giles said: "If they still don't let go of the barricades, will Alvin really come directly?"
Shelley pinched the silver ring on her finger: "I don't know if he will come, but I believe in Alvin."
After passing this level, Shelley and the others found more people on the road. The Holy Light was still shining here, and Velen used his own power to protect the residents nearby.
Strange people walking on the road soon attracted the attention of the residents of this land.
A group of people came quickly from the distance, and golden holy light shone in the crowd. It was obvious that they were a group of clergymen.
"We received news that a pair of strange groups are haunting here. It should be you!" said the male Eredar in the lead. His whole body was covered with golden armor and he was holding a huge crystal war hammer in his hand - -This is a warrior who has experienced many battles.
"Warriors, we are residents who escaped from the Bell Lake area. We finally arrived here after going through hardships! I am the mayor of Bell Town, Gad."
Gad did not respond immediately. A ray of holy light suddenly appeared from the hands of the priest, slamming the war hammer to the ground. Holy energy immediately poured into the ground under his feet through the war hammer, and the gray road was soaked in the holy light and turned into a golden land. !
Shelley stepped on the golden ground and felt the warm holy light pouring into his body from the soles of his feet. The fatigue of running around for many days disappeared under the care of this holy light.
There was a noise behind him, and Shelley couldn't help but look back. Unexpectedly, someone was even lying on the ground enjoying the holy light!
"You passed the test! On behalf of the prophet, I welcome you! My name is Maraad, and I am the defense officer responsible for the defense here!" He picked up the crystal warhammer from the ground, and the golden ground slowly returned to its original state.
"Many enemies have sneaked in here recently to carry out sabotage, so we have to be vigilant."
When everyone was ready to set off again, Maraad said with a smile: "No one has been able to get here for a long time. The prophet will be happy because of your arrival!"
"Lord Guardsman, actually we almost didn't make it here. For some unknown reason, many of our fellow tribesmen are very hostile to us..." Mayor Gard said from the side.
"Those eredar glowing with evil fire... they are no longer our kindred!" Maraad sighed and said: "The evil has taken control of their reason. I can feel that Argus is going through a... A huge disaster."
"Let's go, let's find a place for you to settle down first. You need to relax your tense spirit." Maraad led the fleeing people. In front of them was a temporary settlement. Before Shelley and the others arrived, there were more than one The team members accepted the prophet's protection in advance.
After everyone settled down, Gard did not forget the task assigned to him by Ivan: "Lord Guardsman, we have another request..." Gard motioned Shelley to come forward: "This lady hopes to see the prophet. Sir, I know this request is somewhat rude, but we really have something very important to communicate with the prophet!"
After touching the tentacles on his face and hesitating for a while, Maraad said: "I will convey your request to the Prophet, but I am not sure whether he will meet you. After all, the Prophet has been very tired to maintain this peace."
"Thank you Mr. Maraad for your help!" Shelley lowered his head and thanked him.
"Take a rest for a while! You are absolutely safe here. I have other areas to patrol, so I won't disturb you." After speaking, Maraad walked out with the warhammer.
Gad chatted with Shelley for a few more words and then left: he still had many matters to deal with.
After closing the door, Shelley took out the Naaru fragment from the storage ring: a purple-black crystal wrapped in a specially processed crystal, emitting bursts of purple light. I seemed to hear Ivan's words again: "If you don't see Velen in the end, then throw this thing away. No matter what the consequences are, it will be the lesson Velen deserves!"
…
In the evening, Shelley and his father were dining in an open space. The food from Bell Lake made many people miss their hometown.
Maraad came to the camp, and the prophet decided to meet Shelley without any hesitation. As the spokesperson of the Holy Light, within the scope of his ability, Velen has always responded to the requests of the Eredar people.
"Is Miss Shelley here?!" Although Shelley was beautiful, it was difficult for Maraad to find her under the dim campfire.
Hearing the rich male voice, Shelley quickly swallowed the fish in his mouth and stood up: "Master Guardsman. I'm here!"
"The Prophet has agreed to your request, now come with me!"
Maraad brought Shelley to an ordinary hut: "The prophet is waiting for you inside."
Shelley looked at the ordinary hut in front of her, and it was hard to believe that as the prophet of the Eredar clan, Velen, the immortal known to everyone, was waiting for her here.
Gently pushing the door open, Shelley saw an old Eredar sitting on the chair in the middle. He was holding a rhombus-shaped purple crystal staff in his right hand and was wearing a long red and purple robe. Under his eyebrows are a pair of eyes that can see into the future, and his snow-white beard hangs down on his clothes to show his age - Velen: the spokesperson of the Holy Light, the prophet of the Eredar, and the immortal in the endless years.
"Come in, kid! I see confusion in you." Velen said, his voice possessing some calming power.
The warm holy light illuminated the entire cabin. Shelley sat opposite Viren and said softly: "Dear Prophet, I am here to give you something."
Black-purple light replaced the soft holy light.
"My child, how did you get it?!" Velen said, staring closely at the Naaru fragments in front of him.
