Chapter 54: Ascetic



After figuring out the whole story, Du Yuqi continued to eat her breakfast, dipping the black bread in the honey beside it and eating it with relish.

This honey is a specialty of the Erwin Line. It is produced by a kind of black bumblebee. This kind of bumblebee likes to build nests in the soil. There are a large number of wild grapes growing near the Erwin Line. They collect pollen from wild grapes to make honey. This honey is rich in flavor and has a unique aroma. However, it is easy to get tired of it if eaten alone. It is suitable to be dipped in coarse-grained black bread, which has a unique flavor.

Not only that, there is also a specialty of sour cheese here on the Elven Line. This sour cheese is a recipe passed down by the elves who settled here. It is made by mashing local wild strawberries, adding water and flour, and then fermenting them. It tastes slightly sour with a hint of coolness, and is a perfect combination with black bread dipped in honey. When outsiders come here, they often choose to try this special snack with a unique taste for breakfast.

Soon after Du Yuqi finished eating, the whistle for assembly sounded. After he walked out of the door, he saw a burly man who seemed to be blocking the entire door. He was wearing a cloak on his upper body, but underneath the cloak were solid muscles. He had a small scabbard hanging around his waist, but on his back was a large shield that looked like a door panel. The material seemed to be stone, and there were many runes on the surface of the shield. Wan Te took the initiative to step forward and said:

"I am the Paladin Vante. May the holy light shine upon you, Lord Romon."

The man nodded and saluted:

"I am the ascetic monk Romon. The darkness will eventually pass away. Sir Vante, I am here to report." (Note: The ascetic monk is designed based on the extreme altar in the game, the ascetic Claude)

When Du Yuqi heard the word "ascetic monk", his eyes suddenly brightened. Even in the temple, this was a mysterious profession, one that could be said to be like a dragon that was hard to find.

Du Yuqi only knew that ascetics needed to lead a very hard life and could only practice with extremely strong willpower. Among professionals, those who were willing to become ascetics were already one in a hundred, and those who could persist after embarking on the path of ascetics were even rarer. Of course, a profession that was obtained at such a huge price must be very powerful.

He originally thought that the Church would send out the Ascetic Monk in this gambling match, but in the end, it was Helven who had powerful weapons who took the field... At this time, it would be a lie if Du Yuqi said that he was not curious. He could not help but go to inquire, and finally he got some information from Priest William. That is, although he did not know the ability of this Lord Romon, he had treated an Ascetic Monk a few years ago and knew the characteristics that all Ascetic Monks had...

Du Yuqi was surprised when these three special passive attributes were mentioned:

Can't float in the air, can't grab, won't fall to the ground!

To be honest, after hearing about these three special passive attributes, Du Yuqi felt that it would be better for him not to choose this pervert as his opponent in the future. Because as the name suggests, the ascetic monk should also have the three characteristics of "suppressing pain", "resisting death", and "enduring injuries" (can not reduce combat effectiveness after being injured). These six passive characteristics are enough to turn a useless person into the most difficult opponent. What's more, the ascetic monk has various mysteries to display, which is absolutely a very terrifying existence.

So why did the temple send out Helven when the Ascetics were so powerful? It was because there were three Ascetics in the temple on the west coast at that time, but these three Ascetics all had obvious shortcomings, such as slow movement speed and only good defense... In team battles, their weaknesses would be compensated to the greatest extent, but in single combat, as long as the opponent was not too stupid, then the weakness would definitely be exploited, which was why Helven was able to fight.

Just as Du Yuqi was secretly collecting various intelligence here, a shrill whistle sounded, and everyone began to gather quickly, then entered the basement of the conference room and began to distribute parachutes one by one. At the same time, Wante told everyone that the insider had sent out the first signal.

According to the agreement, this means that everything is normal. Dr. Moreau has gotten up and finished his inspection and may enter the secret room at any time. This means that everyone must be prepared at all times. Once the portal is opened, everyone must rush in according to the order agreed upon before.

Less than three minutes after Wante finished speaking, the magic circle drawn in the basement began to shine with little light. It was a sign that the large number of gems inlaid on it began to break, providing energy for the teleportation array. Soon, a translucent portal appeared in front of everyone.

After seeing the portal, Du Yuqi took off the mask very quickly. It is worth mentioning here that Du Yuqi specially found a one-piece cloak to wear before setting off, and also installed a mask on the hood of the cloak. Of course, this mask is also a high-quality product produced by the Temple. In addition to being unrecognizable, it is also comfortable and breathable, and has excellent defensive capabilities.

Why did Du Yuqi disguise herself? Of course, it was better to be safe than sorry. Not long ago, she had caused a big mess on the Isabella. If the other party saw that she had fallen into their trap, wouldn't they definitely pay special attention to her? Du Yuqi would never allow this to happen.

Therefore, he had already made up his mind not only to change his appearance, but also to carry out his signature treatment methods as far as possible away from the surveillance of the Isabella.

After seeing the portal open, Helvin, with a sullen face, took the lead and trotted in, followed by a group of people who filed in one after another.

When the light of the portal began to flicker, the leader of the Violent Search Team took out a gem-like object from his arms. As soon as this thing was taken out, it immediately shone brightly, as if it was a small sun in the palm of his hand.

Then, he threw this thing directly into the portal, and the transparent portal, which had seemed unstable, immediately stabilized again. Then, the people from the Violent Search Team filed in and entered the portal one by one.

After entering the portal this time, Du Yuqi felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and then he felt dizzy. According to common sense, the dizziness should have stopped after a few seconds. But then it got worse, and the whole person spun wildly as if he was on a roller coaster, and he couldn't stand steadily at all.

According to Du Yuqi's physical condition as a professional, his chest was churning and he felt nauseous and almost vomited. Fortunately, this torture only lasted for a dozen seconds and then Du Yuqi fell directly from mid-air. After losing his balance, the steel floor with sewage flowing in front of his eyes quickly expanded and he was about to hit the floor.

At the critical moment, he finally stretched out his hands in time to support himself on the ground, and rolled several times before landing safely, but it was inevitable that his body was dirty.

Du Yuqi looked around and found it familiar. He looked carefully and found that this was the place where he had escaped from the Isabella that day - the sewage channel! He had killed several cleaning robots here, and then he found out with a smile that the traitor had installed the exit of the portal at the top of this giant sewage channel. No wonder he was upside down when he left the portal, and he hit his face on the ground...

At this time, there was another sound of breaking air behind him. Without a doubt, the next person who passed through the portal came out again. In order to avoid being smashed to the ground, Du Yuqi simply dodged to the back. Upon closer inspection, it was the old bones of Pastor William. Seeing that his old face was about to come into close contact with the floor, Du Yuqi stepped forward to help pull it, allowing the old man to save his face.

Soon, people started to fall out of the portal like dumplings. Of course, if the people who fell out were from the physical profession, most of them would avoid falling down in a mess, but if they were from the magic profession, it would be very tragic. If no one helped, they would definitely hit their faces on the ground and roll on the ground. After waking up, the group of people started to curse and greet the traitor who installed the portal with some very uncivilized language.

However, Du Yuqi felt that the traitor's behavior was understandable. Even their friendly forces could not imagine that the exit of the teleportation array was on the ceiling, so the searcher should also have a blind spot in his thinking, which greatly increased the concealment of the teleportation array.
