Chapter 76 Temple Mission (Part 1)
Adavidon nodded and a crystal card appeared in front of Ge Zheng: "This is a million gold coins, what else do you need?" Ge Zheng sighed inwardly: Level 13 professionals are indeed extraordinary, extraordinary and rich.
Ge Zheng said: "Tell me what you want." Adaviden said: "First of all, it's weight, it must be heavy. My last broken hammer weighs three thousand pounds, slightly lighter. I think it's best to reach four thousand pounds this time." Ge Zheng finally understood why the weapon was called "hammer".
"But, I don't have Longgang on hand..."
"This is not a problem, I will prepare the ingredients for you."
The buyer paid for the money and returned the materials. Ge Zheng wanted to encounter more orders for such a transaction. He communicated with Adaviden for some details and said goodbye.
After leaving the Giant Sword Demon Bar, you have to pass through most of the Dongsheng District before you can return to Ge Zheng's home.
The fragrance of lunch had already floated out of the kitchen. Gronia, who was sitting at the dining table, said to Ge Zheng a little nervously: "Master, there is a drink party in the temple tonight. I hope you can enjoy your face." There are not many things that the Dark Temple is taboo, and believers are allowed to drink.
"Some important figures from the temple have returned, and they really want to meet you." Gronia added.
Ge Zheng didn't think much: "Okay, when will it start?" Gronia hurriedly said, "I'll pick you up then." Ge Zheng nodded. Dunke had served and lunch began.
In the afternoon, Ge Zheng locked himself in his study and worked hard for the manuscript fee of the 100,000 gold coins. Academic articles do not require any literary talent, and even if Ge Zheng needs it, they do not.
In the evening, there was a carriage ringing outside, and then Ge Zheng heard the sound of Dinola swallowing.
"Sir, Miss Gronia is here."
Ge Zheng sorted out the manuscripts on the table, changed into a new warlock robe, wiped his certification badge and walked out.
At the door, the long rose-red skirt scattered on the ground, like the sunset in the sky. Gronia was like a proud blooming rose, and the purple skin of the demon clan was her poisonous thorn.
Dinola stared at Gronia's slender waist and swallowed her saliva, making Ge Zheng smile bitterly and shake his head.
Gronia turned around in place and opened her arms: "How is it?" Ge Zheng said sincerely: "It's very beautiful! I won't embarrass you like this, right?"
Although he has been named a royal alchemist, Ge Zheng is still wearing a warlock robe to deal with all occasions. Gronia stepped forward and held his arm: "You are very good."
The carriage outside the door was not the one that Gronia often took. Today, this one was much more luxurious. The coachman wore a neat blue tweed dress and nodded politely to Ge Zheng. The two boarded the carriage and left together.
Dinola was jealous.
"Master..." Gronia thought about it for a long time in the car, but decided to make it clear to Ge Zheng: "I hope you can understand that the temple arranges this cocktail party to demonstrate to the other five temples." Ge Zheng then realized: "Oh, tell them, I am already yours?" Gronia nodded and said with some concern: "I hope you don't mind."
Ge Zheng waved his hand with a smile: "I don't mind, of course I don't mind. But let's explain in advance that I don't believe in your gods." Gronia nodded: "We will not force you this, but I believe that under the inspiration of Goddess Hull, you will return to the goddess's knee sooner or later."
This is what makes believers helpless: they always feel that their God is omnipotent.
The bells on the carriage were twitching, and the horse was stumbled. The coachman pulled the reins and stopped at the door of Hull Temple. "Master, we are here."
There was a bright light outside, and there was constant traffic in front of the red carpet. Obviously, the scale of this cocktail party was quite large. Those who came to attend the party were either rich or noble, and they were all believers in the Dark Temple in Delson.
As soon as Gronia appeared, she was full of bright light and immediately attracted countless attention. Ge Zheng was by her side, and now she felt a little foiling.
A middle-aged man wearing a black robe walked quickly in the temple. Gronia saw him and saluted slightly: "Speaker of the Gul'dan branch hall."
Ge Zheng and Gronia have been together for a long time and have some understanding of the Dark Temple. The supreme leader of the Dark Temple is called the "General Speaker", and the respective temple speakers of the five main god temples become the "Speaker of the Branch Hall". The power center of the entire Dark Temple is called the "House of Lords", and the five Speakers of the Branch Hall are members of the House of Lords.
The five main god temples also have their own members, and they elected the five major chambers themselves. The twenty-five members of all the sub-chapels gathered together are called the "House of Representatives".
Ge Zheng did not expect that just to show his relationship with him to the other five temples, the Dark Temple actually sent a sub-speaker of the Hall.
Guldan was not the speaker of the branch hall of the Temple of Goddess Hull, but the speaker of the branch hall of Mike Trantkutri. The other four major branch hall speakers could not get away, but the Dark Temple evaluated Ge Zheng's value and felt that it was necessary to send a branch hall speaker. Guldan just seized this opportunity and volunteered to win over Ge Zheng.
Ge Zheng also greeted Gul'dan with Gronia. The speaker of the branch hall hurriedly grabbed him: "Master, don't be polite. There are still many places we have to rely on Master in the future. Come on, please come in quickly."
Gul'dan pulled Ge Zheng into the banquet hall together, which naturally attracted the attention of many people. Ge Zheng's performance on the Champions Night is obvious to all. Seeing that he was now being attracted by the Dark Temple, the believers were very excited.
There was nothing special about this cocktail party. Ge Zheng, who was tired of dealing with socializing again and again, didn't even eat enough. The process was dull, and no one would have defied his eyes to exorcise the new companions of the Dark Temple.
The party lasted for a full three hours before it ended. As the main guest, Ge Zheng was naturally stayed.
Guldan, Gronia and Ge Zheng, the three of them came to an elegantly decorated room. Guldan smiled mysteriously and took out a bottle of dusty wine from his storage space.
He blew gently, and a layer of dust flew away on it. Gronia saw the sign on the bottle: "Twenty years old Dejung red wine, Lord Guldan, this is your box bottom!"
Gul'dan had already drunk a lot, with bloodshot eyes: "Of course, the wine just now was too inferior, not wine to entertain real friends."
He opened the wine bottle with a "bang", and a scent that could not be dispersed came out.
"Come on, try it." He poured three cups and shook it in his hand. The dark red liquid seemed to the lipstick of his lover under the moonlight. Gul'dan sighed: "This wine was bought when I was just promoted to the speaker of the branch hall. It has been twenty years in a flash!"
The Duchy of Derong is one of the two major priests in the northern empire and one of the two most important bridgeheads on the northern empire. But what really made Derong famous on the mainland was its red wine. The alcoholic Gul'dan was promoted to the Speaker of the Branch Hall back then. He was happy and bought half of his property Derong red wine.
Ge Zhenghe didn't come out well and was also imitating himself, looking at the liquid in the wine glass at the moonlight. He knew that Gul'dan would never just ask him to drink.
Sure enough, after tasting the red wine, Gul'dan said, "Master, we are our own people now, I will say anything I have. I am a drunkard, and you don't mind this kind of personality."
"I have heard Gronia say about the master's style. Don't worry, the price of a piece of equipment is one million, and the Dark Temple can afford it."
"The temple has always had a plan, but it has not been possible because of some artifacts. Now with you, Master, we have ignited hope again."
Ge Zheng said: "What does the temple need me to do? Just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse." Gul'dan nodded and asked, "I wonder how much the master knows about the underworld?" Ge Zheng was shocked: "I don't know at all."
Gul'dan said: "The underworld is different from this world. The sky there is dark, flames burning in the sky, and battles spread on the earth. There is no pure land, and if you want to survive, you can only fight continuously. Therefore, the powerful people in the underworld are like forests. Even if they are gods, they may lose their divine nature when they fall into the underworld."
"It is said that the air in the underworld is very different from here, and it is extremely corrosive. The creatures in that world can live freely in it, but the creatures in this world will soon be turned into a piece of steam."
Gul'dan suddenly took out a crescent-shaped magic crystal stone, and the crescent-shaped stone carved strange symbols with dark golden ink. He smiled strangely: "Are the master interested in seeing it?"
Ge Zheng hesitated and said, "Okay..."
Gul'dan handed the crescent stone into his hands and encouraged, "Only a trace of magic power is needed." Ge Zheng took the crescent stone half-belly and half-doubtedly, and a trace of magic power was input into it. He clearly saw that every word on the crescent stone twisted for a moment. A trace of light suddenly flashed on the moon bend, and a trace of golden lines crossed and circled each other. A red hole as big as a full moon slowly opened. It seemed that red matter like magma was rolling in the hole, gurgling bubbles surged up, and a trace of gray gas floated out.
"Shits..." As soon as the gas and air came into contact, a pungent smell immediately came out. Gul'dan threw a wine glass in casually, and the glass dissolved quickly at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye, and soon disappeared without a trace.
"Master, have you seen it clearly?" Gul'dan said. When Ge Zheng let go, the Crescent Stone had no magical support. The magical text on it immediately stopped moving, and the red hole slowly closed.
"This is the simplest channel of the underworld. It dilutes the plane medium between the two worlds as much as possible. It can only release the air from the underworld and cannot summon any creatures."
