Chapter 143: The origin of the mission

The ghost centaur raised its front hooves high and stepped onto the thief mentor Odd.

The thief mentor Odd retreated slightly, and a backhanded stabbed his hand and flashed through the attack of the ghost centaur. The dagger in his right hand stabbed into the back of the ghost centaur. A damage value of more than 3,500 was floating up from the ghost centaur's head.

The ghost centaur lost his target, and his raised front hooves fell heavily on the ground. The ground exploded with a loud bang. A large piece of ground made of rocks was broken. A powerful shock wave swept across the ground, and the ground cracked and quickly spread about three yards around.

Attacked by this powerful shock wave, the thief mentor groaned and dizzy. In less than two seconds, the ghost centaur turned around and gave the thief mentor Odd an arrow. The silver feather arrow pierced the right shoulder of the thief mentor Odd.

The thief mentor Odd was not outdone. He clenched his left hand into a fist and hit the ghost centaur heavily. The ghost centaur sobbed, and his huge body flew backwards to about three or four yards high, and fell more than ten yards away, hitting the temple wall.

The thief mentor Od took out an oversized bottle of blood from his backpack, poured it down, and then rushed towards the Ghost Centaur.

The ghost centaur stumbled and stood up, full of fear. The power contained in the left hand of the thief mentor Odd was too strong, and there was a force that made him feel scared.

Xiao Yu saw that the thief mentor Ode was not at the same level as the ghost centaur. His ability to defeat the ghost centaur was entirely his left hand. Xiao Yu couldn't help but have some doubts about this task. This ghost centaur was probably just a small boss in the temple. The thief mentor Ode struggled so hard. What should he do next task?

The thief mentor Od crushed the head of the ghost centaur with his left hand and shot the ghost centaur to death.

"I'm old. It's so hard to deal with a ghost centaur." The thief mentor Od sighed, with a kind of sadness in his tone. If the curse had not devoured his power, his combat power would have been greater than that. Now, he could only fight by the power of the curse, which has to be said to be a kind of irony.

"No matter how the battle is, keep a distance of more than twenty yards. Don't get close, some people will come when you wait." The thief mentor Od glanced at Xiao Yu in the back and said.

Of course, Xiao Yu understood that every elite monster in this temple was not something Xiao Yu could deal with. Xiao Yu could only watch from the side. Just watching the battle of the thief mentor Aud, Xiao Yu also gained a lot.

Someone is coming? What does the thief mentor Ode mean?

The thief mentor Od took out something from his backpack with his right hand and drew several circular geometric patterns on the ground. He didn't know what it was for. He pointed his finger at the circular pattern and muttered something in his mouth.

A dazzling light flashed by, and an old mage wearing a gray robe and holding a silver staff appeared out of thin air, leaving a large white beard, looking a little sloppy. He was about the same age as the thief mentor Ode, and probably was teleported from somewhere.

"Hey, Odd, why did you get here? It seems that you are really old. You can't be hollowed out by Chris, right?" the mage joked with a smile.

"Redona, shut your stinky mouth. If you talk so much nonsense, I don't mind teaching you a lesson here." The thief mentor Od glanced coldly at the mage named Raedona.

Radona was so scared that he quickly retreated to the side. The flames pounded on the silver staff in his right hand, and made a wary pose, and smiled embarrassedly: "Don't be so serious, just a joke."

The thief mentor Odd ignored Redona and kept busy.

Radona muttered boredly: "The law does not fight against the thief, the mage is a very noble profession."

The thief mentor Audquan pretended not to hear it. After a while, the circular magic circle lit up again, and a female archer with a hot figure in her thirties appeared in the circular magic circle.

"Hi, Chris, long time no see." Radona looked at the hot figure of the female archer and smashed her mouth. This old fairy in her sixties was well maintained, making her look like a thirty-year-old girl.

The female archer ignored Radona. She looked at the decorations around her and confirmed where they were. Her eyes fell on the thief mentor Odd: "Old ghost, I knew that there was absolutely no good thing for you to find me. I want to live a few more years, and you brought me to this ghost place again."

"Come on, you can only live for two or three more years at most. When we all become that guy's subordinates, you will have no chance." Radona attacked mercilessly.

"You!" The female archer had no way to refute, her face turned red and stood aside in a piss.

Radona glanced at Xiao Yu behind him and asked, "That's the seal solver you are looking for?"

"Yes." The thief mentor Ode responded casually.

“How is the material?”

"not bad."

"I hope he can complete the task, we don't have many opportunities." Radona said with a light sigh.

"Their strength has been strengthened again, and we have ten days left." said Odd, the thief mentor.

One NPC after another of various professions appeared in the teleportation array, orc warriors, undead wizards, undead knights, elemental mages, dark witches, black witches, etc., with different appearances and clothes. The thief mentor Aud finally stopped busy. Xiao Yu counted it carefully and found that there were seventeen people in total, which was already a complete medium-sized team.

The thief mentor Aud never told Xiao Yu that so many people would participate in this mission! Xiao Yu was full of doubts. This mission seemed to be even more complicated than Xiao Yu imagined. There were so many professionals. Xiao Yu's eyes fell on the left chest of a necromancer. There was a medal on the left chest of the necromancer. The craftsman had a delicate craftsman. It was carved with a skeleton pattern on it, and the background was silver-white.

Xiao Yu was shocked. Xiao Yu still knew this medal. After all, after staying in Mingye City for so long, how could Xiao Yu not recognize this medal? This medal is the national medal of Diya, the Dead Kingdom. Anyone with a prominent position in and out of the Palace of Mingye City will wear a medal similar to it. However, most of them have no background color. The silver-white background color symbolizes a high position, and the highest point is gold. Only heroes above epic level can have it.

Xiao Yu understood that he had accidentally participated in a very important task, otherwise Diya would not have sent such a high-level person to participate in this task so cautiously. The reason why the thief mentor Aud did not tell Xiao Yu that so many people would participate was to keep it confidential!

These people all looked arrogant and didn't like to talk to the people next to them, but they looked very respectful to the undead wizard.

The thief mentor Aud walked towards the place where Xiao Yu was.

"Do you have a lot of doubts?" The thief mentor Od looked at Xiao Yu and said.

"Yes." Xiao Yuying said. He did have many doubts in his heart waiting to be solved. He didn't understand why Diya sent someone of such a high rank to participate in this mission. This mission was not as simple as the thief mentor Ode said before.

"Let me tell you the origin of all this. More than ten years ago, my brother and I worked in the army. When we were on a mission, we obtained a map. Following the map, we found this sacrificial temple of the Good people, which was occupied by countless ghosts. We explored the center of the temple and found that things were not that simple. There was a very powerful soul hidden in this temple. He controlled all the ghosts and was constantly developing his power, bringing the souls wandering on the continent here and training. My brother and I wiped the map and destroyed the energy crystal in the center of the temple, because it was his brain, but we failed. My brother was controlled by him and turned into a lich, and I was cursed and escaped. This curse would slowly corrupt my body, control my soul, and eventually I would like to do it.

It also became a lich. I informed the Duke of the Lord Yandit of the information I learned. After seeking the consent of Lord Sandru, the Duke began a series of extermination operations here, but it has not been successful. More and more people were cursed. We gradually learned how to destroy this place. Only by allowing a profession within level 20 to break through the protection of the altar, pass through the altar, and use the Holy Word dagger to destroy the energy crystal in the center of the altar, can everything be destroyed. Then we began to look for suitable professions across the country, on the premise that we passed our test first. Many people passed the test before and came here, but they all failed." After hearing the thief mentor Odd's story, Xiao Yu finally understood that Xiao Yu was very depressed. It was just a task, but it was done so complicatedly and there were so many steps.

Since this is Diya's national mission, Xiao Yu can't refuse. He doesn't have to think about anything anyway, just do it according to the task requirements.

"Our mission is to take you to the periphery of the altar. Until then, we may not have the energy to take care of you. You must be careful yourself." said Odd, the thief mentor.

Xiao Yu rolled his eyes. After all, he was also a key figure in the mission. These guys actually ignored him. The temple was full of dangers and was full of powerful elite creatures. Anyone who came out could use his little finger to kill Xiao Yu. If he encountered a dangerous situation, with Xiao Yu's slight ability, he would not be able to escape.

"Of course, after you die, we will resurrect you, but you only have three chances. If you die three times in a row, we will determine that you are not able to complete the task, send you back, and replace someone else." The thief mentor Od glanced at Xiao Yu and said.
