Chapter 2757 Demon Suppression Temple
Chapter 2757 Demon Suppression Temple
"Take me to the Demon-Suppressing Temple."
The guard had just left the library with Fang Heng. When he heard Fang Heng's words, he was startled and stumbled with his left foot. He almost lost his balance with his right foot. "Mr. Fang Bai, what did you just say?"
Fang Heng glanced at the guard who was one position behind him and thought to himself, is it necessary for you to react so strongly?
"I heard that there is a demon-suppressing temple here at the Mist Pillar. I need to go take a look."
The guard pondered the words and explained carefully: "Mr. Fang Heng, you don't know that the Demon Suppression Temple is guarded by the Divine Punishment Knights themselves. Ever since the great sage Croesus disappeared in Hell, the Divine Punishment Knights have been guarding the Demon Suppression Temple according to the orders of the great sage before his death, and they will not listen to anyone else's orders."
Fang Heng was a little surprised, "Anyone? Including the God King?"
"The Divine King has been in seclusion for a long time..."
"so what?"
"So the Divine Punishment Knights will not allow us to enter the Demon Suppression Temple. Someone once tried to break in, and it ended in a very unpleasant situation."
"It's okay, take me over there first."
The guard felt bitter when he saw that Fang Heng refused to listen to his advice.
The Divine Punishment Knights are extremely powerful and don't listen to anyone.
A similar incident had happened before, where a high priest tried to regain control of the Demon Suppression Temple, but was driven out by the Divine Punishment Knights.
It didn't end well in the end.
The high priest then reported the incident to the great sage.
However, the Divine Punishment Knights were once a team trained personally by the great sage Croesus.
Croesus was killed in a battle with Hades.
The few remaining great sages in the divine realm were reluctant to be too harsh on the Divine Punishment Knights out of consideration for their old friendship, and the matter was left unresolved.
After a while, the guards brought Fang Heng to the square outside the Demon-Suppressing Temple.
The square is very large.
Fang Heng raised his head and looked up at the tall building built on the back mountain.
The building is tower-shaped with relatively high floors, about nine stories high in total.
There is a giant stone disc on the facade of the top floor.
Outside the temple, more than a dozen Divine Punishment Knights were guarding, their eyes focused on Fang Heng and the other man who stepped into the square.
"Stop! This is the Demon Suppression Temple. No one is allowed to approach without permission!"
Fang Heng walked to a distance in front of the Divine Punishment Knight and stopped. "I have accepted the inheritance mission of the Great Sage and want to enter the Demon Suppression Temple to complete the trial mission."
Upon hearing this, the Divine Punishment Knights all stared at Fang Heng with slightly surprised expressions.
The successor of the great sage?
Ever since the great sage Croesus disappeared without a trace, the inheritance of the Divine Punishment Knights has been almost cut off, and the number of knights has been decreasing. Up to now, the entire team has only about fifty people.
This was the first time they heard that someone was the successor of the great sage and came here to take the trial.
The Holy Court guard who led Fang Heng here was also hearing this for the first time. Upon hearing this, he turned his head and looked at Fang Heng in astonishment.
real or fake?
The trialist of the great sage?
Does he have this identity?
"Successor to the Great Sage? Are you sure?"
Fang Heng turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a burly Divine Realm knight walking out of the side hall of the tower at the rear.
The man had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, his temples were gray, and his black eyes were extremely sharp. He stared straight at Fang Heng, as if he could see through him.
The leader of the Divine Punishment Knights, Hai En, stood in front of Fang Heng and said in a deep voice, "You said you are the successor of the Great Sage. What is your proof?"
"I have no proof. I came here to accept the assessment of the Great Sage and purify the evil demons in the Demon Suppression Temple." Fang Heng shook his head, "I don't know how to prove myself."
"The trial... is interesting."
Haien chuckled, a hint of nostalgia on his face, and continued, "So many years have passed, I'm afraid few people know that this Demon Suppression Temple was once the selection site for the Divine Punishment Knights."
"I can let you in to take the test, but you also need to take the test of the Divine Punishment Knight at the same time and completely eliminate a third-level evil demon to prove your ability. If you fail, or if you let me know that you have lied to me, no matter who is behind you, I swear in the name of the Holy Light that no one can save you."
The accompanying guards were immediately frightened by Captain Hain's words.
Hein has a lot of experience and is from the same period as the great sages in the Divine Realm. What he said is definitely not bluffing.
[Hint: Player triggers the mission - Test of the Divine Punishment Knights].
Mission name: Test of the Divine Punishment Knights.
Mission Difficulty: SS.
Mission description: The leader of the Divine Punishment Knights, Hain, does not trust you and has put forward a trial requirement for you.
Mission requirements: Agree to participate in the trial and kill a third-level demon during the trial.
Mission rewards: Favorability with the Divine Realm and Favorability with the Divine Punishment Knights.
Fang Heng was still observing the game instructions when the guards accompanying him became scared.
The evil demon sealed in the Demon-Suppressing Temple is no ordinary evil demon!
Given the temper of the Holy See, ordinary demons would not be sealed at all, and they would be killed directly.
There is most likely only one reason why it was sealed.
That means it can’t be killed!
There are countless races in the world, with all kinds of strange and special abilities. Even the Holy See cannot kill all the evil spirits.
The guard couldn't help but lean over and whispered in Fang Heng's ear: "Mr. Fang Bai, why don't we..."
"Don't worry, you stay here and wait, I will go in alone." Fang Heng interrupted the guard and nodded to Hai En, "I accept this test."
After saying that, Fang Heng took a step forward and walked straight through the Divine Punishment Knights team that were standing on both sides.
Hai En looked at Fang Heng's back with a hint of approval in his eyes. He nodded and continued, "The Demon Suppression Temple is a tower structure. The seven floors above correspond to the special magic circle seals of the Demon Suppression Temple. The seven underground floors are used to imprison the evil demons that even the God Realm has been unable to completely eliminate for tens of thousands of years."
"We regularly eliminate some demons, but the number of demons has continued to increase in recent years."
Haien reminded: "After entering the temple, you will see a large number of teleportation arrays. The corresponding teleportation arrays are all first-level demons. If you can kill the first-level demons, the corresponding second-level demon teleportation magic array on the next level will be opened."
"Thank you for reminding."
Fang Heng said this and walked into the Demon-Suppressing Temple without looking back.
The guards who had accompanied Fang Heng all the way swallowed cautiously. When they saw Fang Heng completely disappear in the temple, they swallowed unconsciously and became nervous as well.
A group of knights from the Divine Punishment Knights were also watching Fang Heng's back gradually disappearing. Their thoughts were a little confused for a moment, and they didn't know what kind of mood they were in.
So much time has passed, and they have all grown from young people to seniors.
From the beginning, I waited for the great sage to return, until I slowly lost hope.
At this moment, a person who claims to be the successor of the Great Sage suddenly came to apply to enter the trial...
The first feeling of the Divine Punishment Knights was unwillingness to believe it.
but……
What if it is true? (End of this chapter)
