Chapter 545 Another reason

Priests have strong perception. It is said that people with weak perception cannot hear the guidance of God, let alone use divine arts.

But there are also claims that after becoming a priest, as the number of times you communicate with the gods increases, your perception will become better and better.

There is no clear evidence for either claim, but it is true that priests have strong perception.

This is not a strong ability such as vision, smell or hearing, but a sixth sense. For example, some people can feel someone staring at them from behind, which is a special perception that cannot be explained for the time being.

It is very likely that the three people accidentally set their eyes on the drow priest when they approached, or it may be that the drow priest simply felt that someone was moving nearby. In short, they were almost discovered.

The reason why I say almost is that the invisibility ball is still effective. When the three people saw the drow priest looking over, they immediately stopped where they were, not daring to breathe.

The drow priest's eyes showed a suspicious look, as if he just felt that there was someone, and did not really confirm the location of the three people of Olde.

But this is only a matter of time. Priests have many ways to break invisibility and many ways to detect invisible creatures.

Alde had already clenched her staff. As long as the drow priest wanted to take action, she would immediately take the initiative.

At this critical moment, Zora suddenly raised the holy emblem, and a dim light spread in the invisible magic ball, wrapping all three people in it.

Almost at the same time as Zora took action, the drow priest secretly tore open a scroll, and the light blue mana wave spread along the rock like a scan.

This should have been able to detect the three people in the invisible magic ball, but when the wave hit, it was as if the three people turned into air and passed through.

Seeing this, the drow priest frowned, as if he felt that he was too nervous, and then turned his head to look at the battle situation below.

The three people quickly used this short time to successfully get into the cave by sticking to the wall.

The drow is a priest, and Zora is also a priest. Moreover, compared with the drow who can only tear scrolls to pretend and cast divine spells, Zora's spellcasting ability has no restrictions.

She just used 'avoid detection', and the effect is literal. If the drow priest can still cast spells, it will not be easy to hide it, but it is not possible to tear the scroll.

The power of the scroll is weaker than the caster in most cases, and the same is true for the contradiction between detection and anti-detection.

The three who successfully entered the cave finally had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. In short, let them continue to fight, we have come through.

But perhaps the invisible fate does not want them to go so easily. Just as the three breathed a sigh of relief, they heard a sharp sound of breaking wind. When they turned around, several red-glowing runners dragged their eye-catching afterimages and hit the top of the cave, leaving large cracks and shaking boulders.

It looks like a landslide!

–--——----

"Miss Orday, are you okay? Tell me where you are injured"

Zora dragged Orday and Nimia out of the rubble, feeling like dragging a salted fish.

Nimia was lucky, and it was just a simple healing. Aoerdai shook her head, still a little dazed.

The cave collapsed too fast just now. The three of them didn't care about maintaining the invisible magic ball. They ran all the way and had no time to see where the cave led to.

But when they were about to escape the collapse, they were finally caught up.

The magic shield that Aoerdai always kept on her body helped to resist most of the direct impact, and successfully let Zora and Nimia around her run out, but Aoerdai herself was hit by a stone because she was a step slower.

It was also thanks to the magic shield, otherwise your head would be smashed into eight pieces.

After a little relief, the dizziness slowly faded, replaced by a piercing pain.

"My foot seems to be broken."

"Lie down and don't move, I'll heal you now."

Bringing a priest can not only be a tank, but also a healer. Zora is the most skillful one in the Guards Knights in using divine magic, so Aoerdai chose Zora first on the list of personnel.

She first checked Orde's foot to see if the bone was broken or shattered. After confirming that there was no dislocation but only a fracture, Zora used the healing spell to treat Orde.

The holy healing aura illuminated the dim cave, and the severe pain subsided quickly, but the healing spell was not so effective for bone injuries, and it was only an emergency treatment now.

Then she called Nimya and asked her to come closer. Zora put her hands together, chanted the doctrine of the Demon King Cult, and started the healing prayer.

This is a range-type healing spell, which is more effective than the healing spell, but it takes time to take effect, so it is not a spell that can be used in battle.

The healing wounds on the three people also slowly disappeared with the healing aura. Orde breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as comfortable as lazily basking in the sun.

The good news is that everyone's injuries are not serious. Except for Orde's fractured bones, they are all just healing wounds. And because the cave collapsed, no matter which of the three parties, it is impossible to chase directly.

Bad news.

Aoerdai and the others had no way out and had to follow this cave until darkness.

While healing, Aoerdai pondered what he had just seen.

The appearance of the drow was very unexpected. There were no drow in the demon realm.

What was puzzling was why the drow came to this ruins?

Was it also for the Demon King's Ring?

Generally, pagans go to get artifacts to destroy and weaken the power of hostile gods.

But there should be no connection between the Demon King and the Spider Goddess, and there is no hostility.

Even if the Spider Goddess is unhappy because Li Chengxi has formed an alliance with Eilistraee, let's be reasonable. You are already on Earth, why do you give orders to believers to come and get the Demon King's Ring?

Ordai thought about it and felt that there were two possibilities.

One is that the Spider Goddess and the Centipede Lord are allies. Since Li Chengxi personally beat the fangs of the Centipede Lord, the Spider Goddess intends to help the ally get back.

This possibility is actually very low. The Spider Goddess is an extremely isolated god. She has no good allies. The entire dark elf pantheon is full of enemies (mainly her children). It is really hard to imagine that she has a covenant with the Centipede Lord.

Another guess is that these Spider Queen priests intend to please the Spider Queen again.

Once the magic is lost, the social structure of the drow will collapse. While hiding this fact, the priests will definitely actively seek ways to regain the favor of the goddess.

No matter what means are used, no matter what the price is, the drow will never hesitate.

In this case, the drow may have learned about the existence of the Demon King's Ring from somewhere, and intend to use another god's artifact as a sacrifice to the Spider Queen?

Wait, something is not right.

Aoerdai suddenly realized that she seemed to be too obsessed with the Demon King's Ring.

This relic has shown too many elements that are not related to the Demon King's Ring. It itself is also a demiplane, not a real plane.

Could it be that in addition to the Demon King's Ring, there is something else here that the drow or the Glow Ion Yin Society cares about?
