"That's good."
Kardashian replied. She then raised the low-quality magic staff in her hand and cast a spell to freeze the cracked ceiling of the corridor. Seeing this, the two Elementalists from the Ice Fist Mercenary Group also started casting spells. After seven or eight minutes, the dirt finally stopped falling. The people in the narrow space finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Damn it … It must be those Wood Elves!"
Roddy scolded in a ruffian tone. At the same time, he patted the dirt off his hat and shoulders. Behind him, Iscar also spat. "When I get out, I'll definitely find them and kill them!"
"You guys kill them. Just leave some pretty girls for us, hehe."
Rubens and Stika were like a pair of gay friends, laughing obscenely while dusting dirt off each other. As soon as they finished talking, Kardashian glared at them. "Don't you have anything else in your head? Do you think Natha doesn't exist? "
"I'm joking! Don't take it to heart, Captain! "
Stika quickly begged for mercy. Natha whispered, "These Wood Elves have a bad relationship with Elsa. They even beat up our villagers some time ago. Chief Brudy almost got into a conflict with them. I don't know what happened …"
As a Wood Elf in the team, her identity was very sensitive at this moment. The mercenaries on Pan Da's side stared at her for a long time. Dewitt couldn't help but say, "This Miss Natha definitely isn't with them. Those Wood Elves who attacked us were all as thin as firewood. It's obvious that they didn't have enough to eat all year round. They can't compare to you at all."
The mercenaries were naturally less wary of beautiful women. Natha didn't know how to smile either. She nodded to show her gratitude to Dewitt who spoke up for her. This made Roddy feel a little smug. However, Natha then took out a water bag and instinctively wanted to pass it to Roddy.
Roddy's hands moved even faster. He snatched the bottle and placed it in Kardashian's hands without hesitation. "Guild Leader, drink some water first!"
Pan Da silently watched this scene. He didn't have any doubts about Natha, but he still had some doubts about Roddy's identity.
"Everyone, let's take a break first."
He greeted Devitt, and the mercenaries relaxed for the time being. However, both parties consciously occupied two parts of the corridor, with a distance of three meters between them.
"Organize the food and water."
After giving the order, he turned to Kardashian and said, "Commander Kardashian, what are your plans?"
"Of course I'm going to find a way to get out." Kardashian's staff emitted a gentle light, illuminating the corridor. She looked up and continued, "I'm afraid there's only one exit here. I guess we can only dig out from here."
It was unrealistic to dig a hole in a hard wall. Although magic could do this, the three mages present were not perpetual motion machines. Moreover, they didn't trust each other, so Pan Da didn't even mention this suggestion.
As a mage, Pan Da didn't know how far magic could go. At this time, he could only say, "Then I'm afraid we'll have to work together to get out. Otherwise, if we waste too much time, it's very likely that we'll starve to death here."
"We only brought water and a day's worth of dry food," Kardashian responded straightforwardly. "How about this, we'll reach a magic agreement with each other. Before we get out, we'll not have any conflicts and must work together to dig out the exit. What do you think?"
"That's exactly what I want."
Under Kardashian's suggestion, Pan Da quickly reached this magic agreement. Because of the magic agreement, there was less vigilance between the two sides. Everyone quickly began to organize their tools. In order to prevent bias, the two teams were mixed together into a rotating excavation team. At the same time, mages and mages were assigned to assist the three teams.
Because it was a matter of life and death, no one proposed any nonsense. Soon, the first team began to dig towards the exit. Rubens and Essien were the strongest, so they were arranged to be in the first team. They began to work with several other mercenaries from the Ice Fist mercenary group. The two of them had no complaints. Rubens even spat on his hands before starting to dig, looking like a country bumpkin.
Roddy was in the third team. At this time, he first needed to recover his strength, so he sat on the side and chatted with Iscar.
He seemed to be very talkative. After chatting for a while, Iscar went to the side and huddled with Stika to rest. Natha was a taciturn person, and Kardashian, as the "leader", was also very cold. So when no one paid attention to Roddy, he began to talk to himself. First, he kept cursing the Wood Elves, and then he started to complain about the treasures in the cave being dug away. As he spoke, he leaned to the side and said to the resting priest, "God knows what's written on the wall. If I know anything, I can at least read the story."
The priest ignored him, but Rody didn't care. He crossed his legs and leaned against the wall. "You're right. The High Elves were able to make such beautiful sculptures hundreds of years ago. But look at them now. Nata said that the Wood Elves in the other villages are living like wild monkeys. They can't even make weapons, let alone sculptures. "" That's right, "Nata said with a smile.
The priest glanced at Pan Da, who shook his head, gesturing for him not to say more. Roddy noticed their expressions but pretended not to see it. "By the way, where is this' Moon God Clan 'from? How come I've never heard of it before? "
It would not be right if he did not answer this question, because it would mean that he was doubting his identity. Receiving Pan Da's gaze, the priest finally said, "The Moon God Sterian is a god that coexists with the world. Its existence is as great and ancient as the world we live in."
"Really? What do you do every day? Pray to the moon? " Roddy looked like he did not care. He laughed and said, "I know a few 'Rose Cross' people. They talk nonsense all day, but I don't see any changes in them. They get sick when they need to, get hurt when they need to."
The priest wanted to say something, but Roddy did not stop him. "I specifically asked him, 'Why does the god want you to suffer?' He told me, 'We all have sins and need to suffer to wash away our sins.' Hahahaha, I've said this so many times that even I believe it! So when I get hurt, it's called getting hurt, and when I believe it, it's called atonement? Then doesn't that mean that the one who gets hurt the most can go to heaven? "
"There's no such thing in the Moon God Clan." The priest finally could not help but refute. "We are all children of nature, born from the world. Our prayers to the Moon God are just to make the world more peaceful, less violent, less sinful, and less conflicted. This is the true meaning of the existence of the Moon God Sterian."
"No war? Then what about us mercenaries? Isn't this the god who destroyed our jobs? Hey, I'm just joking. "
Roddy saw the priest's gloomy face and tried to smooth things over with a cheeky smile. He seemed to be talking nonsense, but in fact, he inadvertently revealed the outline of the Moon God Clan. The "doctrine" was not just a few empty words, but it revealed the foundation of the entire sect.
What the priest said made Roddy realize that the "Moon God Clan" did not seem to be too aggressive. This was completely different from the Rose Cross and Viper Cross who had a standing army and were always ready to declare war against the pagans. In other words, this peaceful sect was probably not very aggressive when it came to the use of divine arts.
"Since you all yearn for peace, why do you still come to this place?"
He did not forget to add, "I'm just asking casually. If it's offensive, it's fine if you don't answer."
"The Moon God Clan is a religion that developed during the era of the High Elves, so we hope to find more books or records related to the doctrine. Currently, a lot of information about the Moon God Clan is missing, and many prayers are incomplete."
