Chapter 81 Infiltrating the Holy Mountain

The floating giant city is getting closer and closer to Alantis.

Standing at the top of Alantis, you can vaguely see the huge shadows of the slowly moving sky.

Prince Galah stood above the city with his sword, and a famous military general behind the prince looked solemn.

Magic crossbows on the surrounding city walls were ready to go, magic towers in the city had been charged, the residents in the city closed their doors one by one, and underground shelters in the city were crowded with people, and war was about to break out.

Just as the Battle of Alantis was about to break out, Arthur and his group of more than ten people appeared in a dense forest in the northern suburbs of the city. Seven miles outside the forest was the guardian knights' camp at the foot of the Holy Mountain of Light.

Arthur, wearing a high-level priest robe, walked out of the forest alone, with a solemn expression and a rich breath of light on his body, and walked straight towards the barracks.

The cavalry commander guarding outside the military camp only glanced at the bright note that Arthur handed over, and even gave up the road behind him without even a single question.

This road passes through the military camp and leads directly to the Holy Mountain of Light.

The process went smoothly and completely unexpected to Arthur. All the previous preparations were useless. It was not because of the negligence of the guard knight, but that no one had done this before Arthur. Not to mention the high-level priest robe and the light note representing identity, it is impossible for people outside the church to have a rich light aura.

How could the guardian think that the priest robe and letters were only stolen by Arthur from the diocese bishop of a small city.

A winding path leads to the top of the mountain, Arthur lowers his head and follows the steps step by step.

Occasionally, I met a priest who went up or down the mountain like Arthur. Both sides just nodded slightly and passed by, and no one took the initiative to talk.

When approaching the mountainside, artificially dug caves began to appear on the hillside beside the road, which were the residences of secluded priests and knights.

Arthur knew from the information provided by Shalin that the Holy Mountain of Light and the Temple Mountain were completely different. There was no building on the entire Holy Mountain of Light, all of which were like this. The difference was that some were built outside, while others were deep into the belly of the mountain.

Temple Mount is the place of faith and preaching for orcs, and the Holy Mountain of Light is just a place of seclusion and rebirth for monks and retired priests, knights. The so-called place of rebirth is actually to stay here, quietly waiting for the return to heaven (death).

There are no magic traps or special guards on the Holy Mountain of Light. Except for the several light prohibitions in the critical locations, there are caves on the mountain. Moreover, there is no difference between the caves that imprison the important prisoners of the church and the stone caves where the priests live in seclusion.

The only difference is that one lives here voluntarily, while the other is that one is forced to restrict freedom.

Arthur did not encounter any danger along the way, but it does not mean that this holy mountain is not dangerous. What is really dangerous here is people, the priest who had been insidious for many years, the commander of the Great Knight who retreated from the battlefield, the bishop of the diocese, and even the previous archbishop and the church. After retreating from the clergy, many of them would choose to live in the Holy Mountain of Light until they die.

I'm afraid even the church itself doesn't know how many powerful people are still alive in the Holy Mountain of Light, because many people living in seclusion have not taken a step into their cave for many years. Any old priest who is about to die here may be a powerful existence like a "sweeping monk".

The Holy Mountain of Light gathers the most powerful people on the mainland. Those who dare to come here to provoke trouble are equivalent to suicide, so there are almost no guards here. As for the 20,000 guardian knights at the foot of the mountain, Arthur believes that they are guarding here just to stop ordinary believers and idle people, and to prevent them from climbing the mountain to disturb the purity of the hermits. Their role is similar to that of the community security guards.

Arthur slowly looked up while thinking about how to find the place where Ashu was imprisoned?

Knocking at the door of caves to try was obviously a way to die. He also tried to sense the dark aura on Ashu. Not to mention that Ashu is now wrapped in the aura of light, even if not, there will never be any dark aura on the Holy Mountain of Light.

Arthur walked to the top of the mountain without any obstacles, but did not find any clues about Ashu. He couldn't help but sit directly on the stone steps with a little discouraged look.

If it were elsewhere, such a strange behavior would naturally attract people to look at each other. But in the Holy Mountain of Light, no one cared about Arthur at all. A young priest hurried over Arthur directly, without even looking at him.

This time was probably the easiest in Arthur's life, and even to the point where he was completely ignored. Arthur felt that he was despised, so he took the initiative to start his journey of dying.

"This pastor?" Arthur suddenly spoke.

The young pastor who had walked by him turned around in confusion, "Did you call me?"

"I wanted to go up and visit Pastor Seth, but I can't remember which cave he was in?" Arthur took the initiative to walk towards the young pastor.

"Prince Seth?" The young pastor had heard of the name before recalling.

"I remember it seemed like that cave?" Arthur pointed his finger to the other side.

The young priest's eyes subconsciously moved in the direction of Arthur's fingers, but Arthur's other hand grabbed his wrist like lightning.

Before the young priest could react completely, he felt extremely weak all over. It was Arthur who launched the "Ball of Debilitation" from close range. Then, without waiting for him to shout, his body was frozen instantly. Gru took action at the same time below.

Arthur had no choice but to use the stupidest method to capture his hostage and ask for confessions. The young priest who passed by Arthur was the most suitable object. Such a young man would probably not be a hidden master.

Arthur dragged him directly into the relatively hidden bushes by the roadside, and directly used the dark magic "Dark Addict" to lure him into offerings.

"Where is the black dragon locked up?"

“Above, above.”

Perhaps Arthur was lucky, or perhaps Ashu was too famous here, Arthur asked for information by just taking a hostage, but the biggest disadvantage of "dark addiction" is that he could only induce the subconscious but could not make the other party express it accurately. Arthur had to continue asking: "Where is above?"

"Stone Cave."

"What kind of cave?"

“The largest cave.”

After continuous questioning, Arthur finally found the approximate location where Ashu was detained.

Next, Arthur only had to sneak into the cave where Ashu was imprisoned, and then when the siege of Alantis began, he immediately sent a signal to rescue Ashu!

Arthur's rescue plan was very thorough, but what he could not have imagined was that when he used dark magic, several spirits swept over here.

What Arthur did not expect was that he had not waited for the battle in Alantis!
