The Avatar Crisis made the gods no longer superior!
Although there had been battles between the gods, no matter how many casualties there were, the churches and believers were ultimately affected. But now everything was different. Failure meant that the gods might fall forever.
The fall of the Dawnlord was inevitable.
Because he was too close to the God of Light, and his power was not strong enough!
As a god who inherited part of the original God of Light's priesthood, the Dawnlord was only a Lesser God. As long as he was caught in a battle, many gods of the Order Evil Alignment would not hesitate to kill him.
The Dawnlord was dead.
Part of his divinity and priesthood returned to the God of Light, and the other part was scattered in the Material Plane.
After the fall of this god, all the temples that served him were destroyed in just a few days. The church of the Dawnlord was merged with other gods, and the believers began to believe in other gods without hesitation after the fall of the god. The priests lost the ability to cast divine spells. Under such circumstances, only a few priests would stick to their faith, and most of them would quickly join other churches.
The light on the temple had dissipated.
When Søren arrived at the temple with Vivian, he found that everything inside seemed to have been ransacked.
Søren mobilized a trace of divine power.
As the priesthood of [Tracking] was activated, he looked at the temple for a while, and then whispered to Vivian, "It wasn't the thugs who attacked the temple. The priests who originally belonged here stole the valuable things in the temple and left overnight. "
Even the god who served them had fallen.
The remaining priests who were not determined enough naturally began to make plans for themselves. They stole the gold and silver items in the temple at night, and then secretly left Amber City.
"Brother, sister!"
"Give me something to eat!"
A little girl who looked about six or seven years old appeared in front of the two. She was wearing shabby clothes full of patches, but she was still clean. At this moment, she was looking up at the two of them with her little head raised and begging with her little hands covered in mud. Her eyes were a little timid, but she still mustered up the courage to stand in front of them.
Vivian's sympathy was immediately aroused by this little girl who was even younger than her. She hurriedly took out a pile of food and handed it to the little girl.
At this moment.
Only then did they realize that there were quite a few children in the corner of the courtyard. They were all seven or eight years old. When they saw Vivian taking out the food, they immediately gathered around.
There were more orphans here.
And it seemed like the gems Søren left behind didn't improve everything. These children weren't in a good situation. Although they weren't emaciated, they still looked a little sickly.
The fall of the Dawn Lord had completely destroyed everything.
Annalynne borrowed the power of the temple to take in so many orphans, but when the gods she served fell, everything that supported the operation of the orphanage disappeared.
"Let's go."
Søren patted Vivian's head and said, "Let's take a look inside the temple."
Vivian nodded obediently, then held Soran's hand, and whispered, "Big brother, I'm sorry." These children are so pitiful! Let's adopt them and take them to Mordor. "
Søren nodded without saying a word.
The temple was empty at first. Originally, there was a pool in the front yard of the temple. There were copper Derahls thrown in by the believers, but now they had all been taken away. There were only some white pebbles left in the pool. The boxes that were placed in the temple were gone. It seemed that in order to save lamp oil, the whole temple was dark and looked a little gloomy.
"Lena!"
A young woman's voice sounded, and then a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old wearing a priest's robe appeared. She was stunned when she saw Søren and Vivian, then she waved to the orphans outside the courtyard.
Then, the young priest said to the two in a low voice, "The Dawn Lord has fallen to protect justice."
"If you need divine healing, I'm afraid you'll have to go somewhere else."
She regarded Søren and Vivian as adventurers.
Søren glanced at the little girl, and there was a rare smile on his face. The little girl in front of him was very good to be able to hold on to her faith after the fall of the god, and she was only an apprentice priest.
He walked towards the temple and said, "Where's Annalynne?"
Hearing the name in Søren's mouth, the little girl raised her head in surprise, then said, "Sister went to the mercenary guild. All the gold and silver wares in the temple had been stolen. She needs to take on quests to feed these children. "
At this time.
She had already recognized Søren because Søren had been here once.
Søren nodded and said, "When will she come back?"
The little girl replied, "Should be tomorrow morning."
Annalynne was a priest and a warrior. Even if she lost her divine spells, she still had some combat power. It seemed that she really worked hard for these children.
"We'll stay here today."
Søren reached out and held Vivian's hand, then walked into the dark temple.
The little girl seemed to know that Søren's identity was not ordinary, so she whispered, "Okay. Please come with me. Ugh! The temple doesn't have any money. There's no light in the front hall, so we'll be staying in the back hall. "
At this point, the little girl's expression was a little embarrassed.
A temple should have a lot of wealth, but unfortunately, some of it was stolen by other priests, and a large group of orphans were raised. Looking at the little girl's face, it was obvious that she was not eating well recently. There were still leaves in her teeth, and there was hard black bread on the table not far away.
Back in Amber City, Soran had tasted it before. It was like chewing on a piece of wood.
Søren did not say anything.
When he stepped on the first step of the temple, the lights in the temple lit up automatically, even though there was no oil left. If a temple was not abandoned, there would always be light inside. The altar in the Shrine of Sauron was lit day and night. Unless the shrine fell that day, the priests would check it every day.
When Sauron stepped into the temple, he was stunned.
In an instant!
The entire temple was brightly lit. All the lights were lit, but it was not the lights that illuminated the temple, but the light that was visible to the naked eye.
When Søren's figure stepped into the temple, the light automatically appeared.
The originally dim temple was suddenly shrouded in the light of divinity, but it did not come from the Dawnlord, but from Søren. As a god who walked in the mortal world, any temple would sense him, especially a temple that was currently ownerless, unless he deliberately concealed his identity as a god.
On the other side.
The young girl's face was full of shock, as if she had thought of something. She suddenly felt a little weak in her legs, and she seemed to be unable to stand.
Because she knew Søren's identity.
She thought that Søren was a powerful adventurer, but she never thought that Søren was a true god who walked in the mortal world!
