Chapter 124: The Past

The high stone walls and the retro round arched dome building formed a sharp contrast with the citizens wearing tattered clothes. When Gu Yun and others entered the city, a team of cavalry wearing silver-white armor and finger spears passed by in a turbulent manner. The citizens who set up stalls made way for the knights.

After seeing Gu Yun and others, the pedestrians nearby stayed away from them with a little disgust.

"It seems that the witch hunter is not very popular in this world."

The knowledgeable Qixi muttered - the chain armor on them and the silver weapons they wore all showed the identity of the witch hunter.

"Social conflicts are almost irreconcilable."

Anling also answered.

According to the introduction of the opening, the style of the Mizushan Hermitage Society is somewhat similar to that of the medieval history. They are tools for those in power to enslave people's thoughts, promote the existence of gods, and execute opponents in the words of pagans.

The difference is that the Mizushan Hermit Society is a group of organizations established by witch hunters. They themselves have the combat power that even the Orthodox Knights cannot be underestimated. In this era of serious lack of technology, force occupies a large factor in the power struggle. The Archbishop of the Mizushan Hermit Society they are about to meet is even more a person who can chat and laugh with the rulers.

Holy Capital

The place name of the map interface has also changed.

Looking at the pedestrians coming and going, An Ling suddenly felt a strong sense of incongruity.

She had to admit that this social structure was portrayed briefly. Just by digging deep into the witchers, knights and royal family, they could explore countless ups and downs, but this style was really far from the former Ren Hell.

Although the name Renhe is not very nice, its past game style has never been dark and heavy, mostly childhood memories or romance between princes and princesses. The holy capital in front of us can smell the breath of conspiracy even if we don’t have to walk in.

"Gu Yun, what do you think?"

An Ling turned her head and asked Gu Yun's opinion, because since they walked into the city gate, the latter carefully paid attention to every corner of his eyes, as if he didn't want to miss any details.

"I always feel like I've been here."

This feeling is very wonderful.

It seems like I have been here, but when I carefully observe the details, I find that everything I see is extremely unfamiliar.

"You may have seen it in popular science videos."

At least Anling can be sure that any news about this game has never been leaked, but for this game, those big vs, well-known game podcasts, "A friend" and "A buddy" have lost their magical role. As a fan of Ren Hell, she also learned about the world that the new game is committed to building.

However, the modeling in the game is more realistic in style, and the city structure is also exquisite, so it is not impossible to confuse this with a medieval city.

"Maybe."

Under the leadership of Npc, the three of them passed the noisy market. After being rolled around, they arrived at the extremely majestic cathedral.

Gilded pendulum clocks and vivid colorful paintings, they are like they have come to a completely different world when they take the first step in the store.

The surrounding environment was not the secret and gloomy cellar that Anling imagined. The clergy of the church were all wearing glamorous robes.

"Gu Yun, when we meet the Archbishop, don't make any promises, just verbally agree with him."

As a game expert, An Ling whispered to Gu Yun.

She felt that with Gu Yun's actual combat level, he might not be unable to cope with the main task of level 50, but from all angles, they could not be so dedicated to the main task.

"The Archbishop is already waiting for you."

Npc took several people to the end of the corridor on the west side and walked out of the corridor. It was a garden carefully repaired by the gardener. In the middle of the garden stood a towering ancient tree. The three of them looked up and could only see the sky covered by dense branches and leaves. The Archbishop was standing under the ancient tree and facing their backs.

The red robe was held on the ground. When the archbishop heard the sound behind him, he slowly turned around. His hands were placed on a cane inlaid with red gems, looking very old.

"Hello, I'm the Archbishop..."

“Anfictor?”

Gu Yun blurted out, and everyone present, including the Archbishop himself, was stunned.

Anfictor is his life, but for more than a decade, no one has called him by his name in front of him.

"We know?"

"It's not considered a recognition."

Gu Yun shook his head. When he saw the Archbishop, he finally understood where that strong sense of familiarity came from.

The reason why he always remembers the name Anfictor is because the old man in front of him is the most powerful wizard ever mentioned by believers. He gained divine wisdom with his human body.

"I'm just a little bit regretful that I didn't have time to fight you."

When I saw Anfictor, the past scenes gradually became clear in Gu Yun's mind.

He did come to this city before.

However, when he came here, three quarters of the cities had become ruins, and all the sights were burned by fire. There were no people coming and going, only the scars and ashes all over the ground, and the bones that were exposed from time to time in the broken walls.

The once proud sacred capital of believers was destroyed in a certain war.

The reason why Gu Yun failed to fight Anfictor was very simple - because when he knew this name, Anfictor had been dead for thousands of years, and he just remembered Anfictor's name and portrait through the "strongest" mentioned by believers.

"It's a pity that I'm old."

Anfictor smiled and shook his head. He just regarded Gu Yun as a young demon hunter with a strong "competitive heart". And what is certain is that these three must be very capable demon hunters.

Because they seem to have mastered information about the monsters in the city.

"Young man, can you please tell me more about the werewolf, it is very important to the Mizushan Hermits."

"Ah, we are still investigating. If there is new news, I will tell you as soon as possible."

An Ling felt something was wrong and immediately snatched the topic.

She was full of doubts now. She didn't take Gu Yun's words to heart just now, but this time, the latter directly spoke the archbishop's name in front of her.

She dared to make a promise, and there was absolutely no place to disclose the archbishop's name along the way.

At this moment, the Archbishop's character interface only marked the three words Archbishop, the level is three question marks, and the skeleton icon is also marked.

"Then please, if you have any needs, the Mizua Hermit will do his best to assist you in your actions."

As soon as the words finished, the task list changed again.

Mission update: (optional) Join the Mizuma Hermit Society.
