Journey to Azeroth

Chapter 135
The white-robed girl looked around and saw a few people showing faint hostility, and quickly explained: "Everyone, don't be nervous, I am indeed not a living human being, but I have no malice towards you!"

"Ghost?" Carl stared at the girl closely, "Or a banshee?"

"Holy light!" Leah drew out her weapon and shield, and the golden holy light swayed down.

The white-robed girl showed a look of fear on her face, and backed away again and again, obviously afraid of the strong holy light on Leah.

"Don't panic," Carl stood between Leah and the white-robed girl, preventing Leah from moving further.

"Were you ever a priest?"

After Leah retracted her weapon, Karl asked the girl in white robe.

"No, no, I'm just a ghost taking refuge here," the girl's face was pale, and she didn't know whether it was because of being frightened or because of the ghost's physique.

"Let's go in," Carl nodded and greeted, and walked into the church first, only Carol was still lying on the ground motionless.

The interior architectural style of the Holy Light Church is similar to the church in Nanhai Town, with white marble walls and exquisite reliefs carved on several stone pillars. Although hundreds of years have passed, everything here is still in order.

In the center of the church are piles of various supplies. It can be seen that in the battle to seal Midas Castle, this place used to be the supply for the front line, but after so many years, these supplies have already become useless garbage.

After leading everyone into the church, the girl took a few steps back.

A system prompt appeared in Carl's mind, triggering the mission: Find the relatives of the mayor of South Sea Town.Task reward: 500 experience.

Carl thought about it, and asked:
"Excuse me?"

Carl's voice was a bit abrupt in the silent church, "Have you seen a few young people?"

Then Karl described the appearance of several explorers to the girl, including the mayor's grandson.

"Mr. Mage, my name is Sandy." The girl cautiously took a few steps forward, approached the several people, nodded and said, "Yes, they have gone to the center of the castle."

"Can you take us there?"

"Of course there is no problem!" The girl smiled slyly and continued, "But, can you help me? Do the poor ghost a little favor?"

"Of course!" Leah slapped her chest loudly, "Wrap it on me!"

Karl hurried forward to stop the pastor, who was full of sense of justice, and asked calmly: "You have to explain clearly what is the matter first, and then we can consider whether to agree."

"Do you want to know why this place becomes a paradise for the undead? Do you want to know why I appear here?" The girl didn't answer Karl's question, but asked instead.

"Troll war?" Karl asked tentatively.

The girl smiled, with a bitter smile, "It's not just these."

"Then please," Carl made a gesture of invitation.

Time goes back to 200 years ago. In that era, the trade route between Dalaran and Southsea Town was one of the most important trade routes in the entire Hillsbrad area. Every day, the caravan passing through Grizzly Canyon had Dozens of them are as lively as the current Tarren Mill, and Midas Castle, located at the transfer station, is the most important transportation hub on this commercial road.

The place is prosperous and rich, and the owner of the castle, Midas, is a powerful mage known far and wide.

But the good times didn't last long. The Hinterland trolls went south and caused terrible damage to the entire east of Hillsbrad. The city collapsed and the villages and towns were burned. There is no smoke, and there is no one for thousands of miles.

Soon the army of trolls gathered outside Grizzly Canyon, staring at Midas Castle. There were tens of thousands of ferocious trolls outside, and there were only a few hundred castle guards in the castle.

The whole city is ready to die in battle. The daughter of the city lord found an ancient spell and sacrificed her life and soul to the devil in exchange for a powerful spell.

The lord of Midas, using the magic he just obtained, led the people of the castle to persevere under the stormy attack of the trolls and won the war.

The story does not end here. The devil deceived everyone. The devil abandoned his body and escaped from the void, and his soul was attached to the parchment that recorded powerful spells. A gap opened in the soul.

Then the demon took over his body, killed him, and turned the whole castle into a paradise of death and evil.

After the story was finished, the entire hall fell into silence, and everyone was deeply shocked, except for Carl, who had already read these materials in the basement of the church in Nanhai Town, but he didn't know some of the details.

"Then, Miss Sandy, why did you appear here?" Carl broke the silence, although it was a bit disruptive at this time.

"Because I was the sacrifice in exchange for power, I voluntarily sacrificed my life and soul to the devil, in order to save the lives of everyone in the castle..."

"My soul is tied to that demon and imprisoned on the filthy demon parchment," the girl sighed faintly with a hint of sadness on her brows, "It has been more than 200 years."

"Are you saying that we need our help to free you?" Cowley jumped between Carl and the girl, rubbing his hands together, "It's a very good task, let's talk about the reward, you know we need it!"

A warhammer flashing with holy light flew over from behind. Cowley jumped to the side nimbly, avoiding the flying warhammer. The warhammer hit the ground fiercely, smashing a hole in the smooth marble floor.

"Damn dwarf, you are courting death!" Liya waved her shield angrily, "Miss Sandy is so pitiful, you still want to blackmail her!"

"To be honest, I don't agree with it," Carl looked at Lia, ignoring her angry eyes, and calmly analyzed: "Our task is to find people, there is no need to provoke people who shouldn't be provoked, and with how many of us This task is very difficult to accomplish.”

Hiding behind the stone pillar, Cowley poked his head out, "It's a different story if you get paid... Oh, help!"

Cowley quickly retracted behind the stone pillar, dodging a flying shield.

"What about you?" Carl looked at the others.

"Well," Black showed a hesitant look. He was not in favor of helping the girl, but the girl's experience was somewhat similar to his, and he sympathized with her.

As for Carol still lying outside the church.

"I beg you, please help me," the girl's voice was sobbing, begging several people bitterly, a line of transparent tears flowed from her eyes.

"I've been waiting for 200 years, and I don't know when someone will come next time."

"I agree," Carl replied softly, looking at the girl's pitiful gaze.

"Thank you so much, woo woo woo..." The girl was moved and burst into tears.

The system appeared in Carl's mind again, triggering the task: saving the sacrificed girl, task reward: 500 experience points.

On the one hand, Karl accepted this task because he really wanted to save the ghost girl.

On the other hand, he is also very interested in the spells of this mage named Midas. Of course, it is not the psychic spells that turn people into undead, but the arcane spells of Midas. The property is also very rich.
