The next morning.
Morpheus returned to the mansion in a good mood. At least what he gained last night was enough for him to perfectly complete the mission of the Inquisition and obtain enough merit. Four "Voodoo" marks were marked on the map of the forest surrounding Medici City in his hand. "The camp stronghold of the sect, and he already has more than four leaf-shaped emblems representing the rank and identity of the members of the Voodoo sect in his hand - which indicates the number of people killed.
In the following day, Morpheus wrote the mission report on a thick stack of parchment and submitted it to the Heretic Tribunal in person. The Tribunal approved the response very efficiently, and the next day Morpheus was notified to receive the next mission¡ª ¡ªThis means that Morpheus¡¯s investigation has received the attention of the adjudication office and is ready for in-depth investigation. It also means that his merits have been doubled.
It¡¯s just that the next mission seems to be extremely dangerous. The next mission Morpheus gets is to follow the team arranged by the ruling to carry out a cleanup - obviously it will not be led by him as a "supervisor", but by three other people. The white-robed "Sunwatcher" whose strength is around level IV and the seven ordinary members who also have no high-level status are at around level vii, which is enough to deal with the minor threat of the Voodoo Sect.
This time, Morpheus quietly led ten "peers" into the forest as a follower.
From previous battles with members of the Voodoo Sect and inquiries after the battle, Morpheus has understood that the members of this ancient religion actually have a completely different professional system from the mainstream magicians - the most important of which is that The guy who summoned giant pythons and vines, he and the legendary patriarch of the Medici family actually belong to the same profession of "summoner"!
The old man who transformed into a giant bear is "Musad", who has the magical ability to communicate with animals and transform into animals. According to legend, the highest-level "Musad" can have the power to transform into a giant dragon, but was blown away by Compton. The unlucky guy is the "shaman", and the wooden stick he sticks into the ground is the "totem", which is used as a medium to communicate with all living things in nature. The powerful shaman has the terrifying ability to stay in the world forever in the form of a soul. Because of this, the entire "Voodoo" was labeled a "heresy" by the Holy See. Unlike the vampires who live forever in human form, the shaman's soul immortality is obviously higher level and more indelible.
"It's just that the shaman who can do this has not returned to the mainland for more than a thousand years, and even the entire Voodoo sect has declined and there is no peerless strongman in charge.
And this is one of the reasons why Morpheus was able to deploy his new plan - when he led his companions with always stereotyped faces to the outskirts of the first camp on the map at dusk, this young man whose real strength was far stronger than his other companions He wisely stopped and waited for the captain's command.
The captain of the white-robed Sunwatcher is a low-level swordsman, who is the same as Morpheus's low-level knights in terms of level. He is thirty-nine years old and has "worked" in the Judgment Office for fifteen years. He has a lot of combat experience. , looking at the target with a worrying vision in the night, the captain squinted at Morpheus who was leading the way. He did not say any more words, but directly took out the magic hourglass allocated in the ruling office in his hand - including Morpheus. The other eight members inside made the same move, and the eleven people simultaneously pressed the activated magic circle on the hourglass under the command of the captain.
This fluorescent timer is extremely effective in coordinating combat timing during combat.
"Start the attack at one-third of the mark, and gather towards the center of the camp at half-mark. Those who have not arrived after the hourglass ends will not be rescued."
After checking the time, the captain issued an order, simple and clear - to deal with heretics, white-robed sunwatchers rarely choose to capture them alive, because only dead heretics are good heretics.
"start."
Although the number of people is not large, the presence of two Level IV and two Level V is absolutely irresistible to the Voodoo Sect - unless the Voodoo Sect puts out the only remaining old seniors, there will be more than ten or twenty people in one camp. The enemy is hardly a nuisance at all.
Murphys acted as a qualified "supervisor" from beginning to end, saying nothing, excelling, and making no mistakes. However, when the team dispersed, Morpheus lost his previous cautious attitude.
The dagger was unsheathed, and two black shadows suddenly appeared beside Morpheus - Connor and Compton had been ambush here for a long time.
"Get ready."
"Yes, Master."
Connor answered in an unusually low voice - he could not imagine what kind of "enemies" those members of the tribunal would face today.
"Let darkness cover the light and bury the hypocrisy of holiness."
When Morpheus said that?When the first chapter of "The History of Marcus' Bloodline" was written, the only trace of moonlight in the sky was covered by clouds.
Snowflakes are falling gently.
Compton and Connor disappeared into the shadows at the same time.
The scale of the magic hourglass in your hand slowly passed by, sliding past one-third of the mark.
At the same time, Morpheus walked out of the lush jungle and entered the temporary camp of the "Voodoo" sect.
The sound of fighting rang out, mixed with the roar caused by the transformation of "Musad" - Morpheus walked forward leisurely. There were not many members in the camp who had no fighting ability as when Morpheus was investigating a few days ago. On the contrary, a A stern-faced voodoo shaman and mussad who are over forty years old are ready for battle.
The Sphinx strolled out from nowhere, but it showed its true identity. This terrifyingly long big cat with seven poisonous bone tails walked silently beside Morpheus, its intimidation was astonishing. .
Ten minutes later, the sound of fighting not far away gradually disappeared.
When the scale of the magic hourglass reached one-half, Morpheus stopped and stood in the center of the entire camp, hugging his shoulders slightly and looking forward.
Three high-ranking members of the Judgment Institute were thrown in front of Morpheus.
The captain who had given the order to attack before had his chest covered in blood and his left shoulder was completely torn. The other two guys had air in but not out, and many parts were missing from their bodies.
As for the others, it goes without saying what their fate will be.
The two people standing opposite Morpheus are Musad and the Summoner, who are elders of the Voodoo Sect.
The summoner has the ability to explode with terrifying power within a certain combat time limit. At this moment, in the center of the camp, there is a humanoid creature standing next to this powerful summoner. He is three meters tall and has a terrifyingly large weapon in his hand. The battle ax, with its muscles shining like red-hot steel, is obviously a one-horned demon from the abyss. Each individual is strong enough to repel that low-level great swordsman!
¡°Man in white robe, Inquisition, I don¡¯t think the Voodoo sect should agree to be pulled into that weak chariot by you.¡±
The person who spoke was the most powerful Mussad - this elder's strength after transformation was at least level II, which means that he has stood at the highest threshold of most professionals.
"It sounds crazy to fight against the Inquisition, but the entire Voodoo sect has not fought against him for thousands of years? Can blindly escaping bring peace? Your living space is no longer enough to continue."
Morpheus's answer made the old man with a face like an old tree root fall silent for a while. There were two small protrusions on his forehead. If the strength broke through to level I, there would be two antlers there - this is a powerful person. One of the manifestations is that strong individual strength can never save the sorrow of the ethnic group. The Voodoo sect that develops based on ethnic relations does not select its leaders through recommendation and voting like the Holy See, but inherits through blood relations, so the reduction of living space means that leading to the inevitable demise of the entire sect.
"Although the Voodoo sect is eager to survive, it will not use the destruction of others as a stepping stone." The old man wanted to answer something, but finally sighed, waved his hand, and signaled to throw the half-dead men in white robes to Morpheus. "There is no need to ridicule our teachings. Between destroying others and destroying yourself, Voodoo would rather choose the latter."
Morpheus responded with silence - it was the first time for him, who was familiar with the laws of the jungle, to hear such a concept. The words he originally wanted to refute were swallowed back after seeing the old man's vicissitudes of life.
"When a stone collides with an egg, we will choose to side with the egg, so we choose to agree to your request. The meaning of life is not to destroy others and achieve oneself, and the real excitement is not to achieve amazing ambitions. "
The slightly shabby-dressed members of the Voodoo Sect in the camp gradually left. The summoner, who had been silent for a long time, left these words that made Morpheus ponder for a long time before his back disappeared into the darkness. With heavy snowfall, these people were forced into the forest by the Holy See. People who had been here for hundreds of years pulled up the hoods of their cloaks as usual, without the slightest hint of killing.
The brief daze caused by the conflict of values ??quickly disappeared, and his eyes turned back. The Inquisition team left behind by the Voodoo believers had been basically wiped out. Only the powerful low-level swordsman was still conscious, but there was no longer any threat. Yan¡ª¡ªThe Sphinx stared at the people in front of him quietly. The captain of the Sunwatcher, who was so shocked that he could not speak, asked in a trembling voice: "Are you a heretic?"
"Pagan, how many innocent people have you killed with these three words? The meaning of the existence of the white-robed people is to kill all those who have different beliefs. I said that, right?"
?? Morpheus lowered his head and stared at the magic steel dagger in his hand. The only bonfire left in the camp lengthened Morpheus's shadow. The young but maturePang no longer had the childishness he had a year ago.
"The heroic members of the Judgment were besieged in the stronghold of the Voodoo Sect and almost died collectively. It is a pity that you can no longer fight for your so-called honor."
The poisonous tail of the Sphinx was raised, and the great swordsman, who had always remained conscious, tried to struggle in fear, but the last thing he saw in his field of vision was the figure of a young man turning away.
And behind him were two vampires whom the Heretic Tribunal had not seenor executed for a long time.
