"I really didn't expect Sister Nimf to be so powerful …."
Walking in the dark forest, Fina still seemed to be in a daze. She looked around with mixed feelings and did not know what to say. As a spellcaster, of course she could clearly sense the magic aura exuding from her surroundings. In Fina's eyes, she could even see the boundary formed by countless crisscrossing cycles right next to her, within reach.
Logically speaking, being in such a huge chain boundary, unless the entire boundary was destroyed, they would be immediately discovered as soon as they walked in. But now, Fina could feel that the boundary was still in operation, but it completely ignored their existence, as if the two of them were the masters of the boundary.
When she thought that this was all the work of that petite and cute girl, Fina could not help but sigh with mixed feelings. She did not know what to say.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that either."
Hearing Fina's sigh, Fangzheng also shook his head. To be honest, he did not have much hope for Nimf's level of power at the beginning. Firstly, she was a silver-grade summoning stone, which was basically Africa's bottom line. Secondly, her weak performance when she first appeared also disappointed Fangzheng. Logically speaking, such a person should not be that strong. But …. You don't play by the rules!
You can invade magic boundaries, so why are you pretending to be a little rabbit here!?
Fangzheng really could not imagine what kind of world Nimf came from. With her ability, she actually lived as if she was treading on thin ice and was even willing to be someone else's slave?
Thinking of this, Fangzheng could not help but look up at the bushes above his head. Nimf did not move with them. As an artificial angel, she could also fly. Therefore, Fangzheng gave her the task of high-altitude reconnaissance. Not only that, but she also had the ability to turn invisible, which made Fangzheng feel a lot more at ease. Otherwise, if Nimf encountered any danger and he could not help her, it would be troublesome.
"Shh!"
At this moment, Fangzheng suddenly stopped and gestured to Fina. As for Fei Na, she hurriedly squatted down and leaned beside Fangzheng, gripping the scepter in her hand tightly. Very soon, the two of them heard the sound of footsteps, followed by a few figures in black robes walking out from the depths of the forest. They were not carrying weapons, but the smell of sulfur on their bodies had already betrayed their identities.
Cultists.
"Master's orders must be followed."
The cultists did not notice that Fangzheng and Fina were not far from them. They were whispering to each other. Their voices were not loud, but to Fangzheng, whose senses were as sharp as an insect's, it was no different from singing in his ears.
"But isn't it a little too fast? It wasn't easy for us to capture these lackeys of the Sanctum …. "
"For Master's plan, this is all unnecessary! Don't forget our mission and mission! Master just sent a message saying that he has reached an agreement with that lord. We just need to bring these captives to that lord according to the agreement. We don't need to worry about anything else! "
"But is that wizard really trustworthy?"
One of the cultists asked in a gloomy tone. Upon hearing his words, the other cultist sneered coldly.
"He's a traitor. We don't need traitors. Only those depraved and filthy idiots of the Dusk Army would fancy a fool like him. But for Master, his power is necessary. Since that stupid wizard thinks he can gain power through trading, then let him be immersed in this short and beautiful dream. I believe that when that lord arrives, he will understand what his choice means. "
The cultists let out a series of gloomy laughter, then turned around and left.
"What blasphemy …."
Listening to the words of the cultists, Fina clenched the scepter in her hand with a furious expression. Fangzheng narrowed his eyes and scanned the surroundings. Perhaps because of the magic barrier, the cultists did not conceal their movements and were not very vigilant. But because of that, Fangzheng finally obtained some useful information from these dedicated "NPCs".
It was obvious that the cultists' attack on the stronghold was not a rash decision, but a premeditated plan. And these captives seemed to be brought here to be given to someone. As for the purpose of these captives, it was nothing more than sacrifice …. In any case, the cultists did not seem to have any other tricks up their sleeves.
Apart from that, the cultists also revealed another piece of information. There was a wizard with them, and judging from what they said, that wizard seemed to be a traitor. But this was not important to Fangzheng. The most important thing was the secret revealed by the cultists.
Their master had reached an agreement with a lord.
"Nimf."
Fangzheng immediately clenched the invisible chain in his hand and muttered to himself. Soon, he heard Nimf's voice.
"Yes, Master. What's the matter?"
"Can you search around and see where the captured Templars are?"
"Of course, please wait a moment …. I found them. The detector has detected 23 disarmed humans. They are in the northwest corner, and there are 10 soldiers guarding the area."
"Where's the wizard?"
"He doesn't seem to be in the camp. I didn't detect any energy fluctuations from him."
"That's interesting."
The corners of Fangzheng's mouth curled up when he heard Nimf's report. He then explained the situation to Fina. After listening to Fangzheng, Fina frowned.
"What should we do next?"
"In short, we have to rescue the temple warriors first. There are too many cultists here. We can't handle them with just the two of us."
Of course, Fangzheng did not tell the truth. If he wanted to kill the Lich King or Kerrigan, he would just send a wave of them over. It was just a competition of numbers. Who could have more than the Scourge Army and the Zergs? But considering the current situation, he was still unwilling to use these two guys. As for the temple warriors, although they were captured, they should still be able to fight. Even if they could not defeat the wizard, they should have no problem dealing with ordinary cultists.
With Nimf's aerial radar, it was a piece of cake for the two of them to avoid the cultists' sentries. Perhaps because they trusted the external magic barrier too much, the cultists never thought that someone would sneak in. This caused their internal defense to be almost non-existent. Not only did Fangzheng look like he was strolling in his own backyard, even Fina had to play the role of an ace agent. It was all because the opponent was too useless.
It didn't take long for the two of them to sneak to the place where the temple warriors were imprisoned. It had to be said that the temple warriors were really pitiful. With the light from the fire, Fangzheng saw that the armor on their bodies had been taken off, leaving only a thin outer garment. Not only that, but each of their hands was tied up by a metal chain. It was a very strange kind of iron chain. Its surface appeared to be rusty dark red, and it looked extremely fragile. It seemed like an ordinary person could break it with a simple twist. But in fact, the temple warriors were lying on the ground powerlessly. Their eyes were lifeless and they looked as though their bodies had been emptied.
"What happened to them?"
Fangzheng was dumbfounded as he looked at the lifeless Holy Temple Warriors on the ground. He originally believed that even if the Holy Temple Warriors were injured, they would at least have some backbone. Why did they look like dead fish that were at the mercy of others?
"It's because of the Chaos Shackles, Mr. Fangzheng."
As a Grand Priest, Fina noticed the problem with a single glance.
"Those are shackles created by the cultists using Chaos energy to restrain the people of Order. As long as they are restrained by the Chaos Shackles, they won't be able to unleash any strength. "
"I see."
After listening to Fina's explanation, Fangzheng finally realized that this was a prop version of the debuff of the Son of Chaos. It seemed like the Evil Cultists had not fought with the Holy Cathedral for so many years for nothing, they had some ability.
Since they figured out the reason why the temple warriors were emptied, the next step was to rescue them. Fangzheng peeked his head out and scanned the surroundings with the help of the fire. Compared to other places, the security here was a little tighter. There were a total of ten Evil Cultists in charge of guarding the place. They were all wearing long robes, and under the illumination of the fire, they stood there quietly like the dead. If it weren't for the fact that Fina couldn't detect any undead aura from them, Fangzheng would have suspected that these cultists were undead creatures.
But no matter what, he still had to do what he had to do.
"Are you sure you'll be fine? Mr. Fangzheng? They aren't weak at all. "
Fina asked worriedly as she watched Fangzheng get ready for battle. The sulfuric aura from the ten cultists was extremely dense and each of them was as strong as Knight Conan. This also meant that these cultists were in the Elite Stage. Fina wouldn't be worried if there were only one or two of them. But the problem was that there were ten of them and they were positioned far apart. If anything were to happen, they would immediately be surrounded by a large group of cultists!
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Fangzheng unsheathed the Sky Cutter from his waist and nodded to Fina. Then, he gazed ahead and bowed slightly.
