Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair.

Chapter 151 The Hot Holy Emblem

Ron was not sure whether it was a heroic spirit or not, but he did have a warrior with a huge sword.

"Me? A prophet?" Sera was called over. She was confused and became even more bewildered after listening to Ron and Spike's explanations.

"You must be kidding me, I have nothing to do with prophecies or anything like that."

Sera crossed her arms and said, "In our place, only a few shamans have this ability. Do I look like a weird old woman?"

In fact, when she was in the Ochre Tribe, the shaman who served as Sera's right-hand man was also a fierce man who could fight tigers. But after coming to the south, in order to make it easier for others to understand, she would often describe her own shaman as a dry old man.

If he heard it, he would definitely fight me. Occasionally, when he talked about this after drinking, Sera would always giggle.

"You are a brave and extraordinary warrior. I could never imagine you becoming like that," Spike said quickly, "but that's not what I said. That's what the crazy man told us."

"If you want to know more, I suggest you come with us."

"Ron?"

Sera did not respond to Spike immediately, but looked at Ron. She did not think it was worth the trip, but the final decision was not hers.

"We have to save people after all. After all, this is our territory, not to mention they are acquaintances," Ron thought for a moment, "but to be honest, we just came back from the depths of the Delusion Land today. It would be too hasty to set off now."

"Tomorrow, early tomorrow morning, you will lead the way."

"I hope Wilson and the others can hold on." Spike smiled bitterly, but there was nothing he could do.

As a fellow adventurer, he naturally understood the rationality of Ron's request; but as a companion of Wilson and the others, he also really hoped that Ron could set off for the rescue as soon as possible.

Now, except for that crazy so-called "prophet", no one knows how long Wilson and others can last.

Ron didn't intend to delay time deliberately, but they really needed to rest and prepare - if they rashly broke into a place that could trap a regular team of adventurers, they would inevitably suffer the same fate.

"I thought I would have time to learn some spells," Sylvia was the one who reacted most when Ron told his companions about this. "I finally found an opportunity to learn more advanced magic in the green dragon's lair, but now I have no time at all."

"Believe me, I understand how you feel." Ron sighed. As a fellow mage, how could he not know that a mage's confidence comes from spending a lot of time studying and preparing? But saving lives is like putting out a fire, and they had no choice but to rest for a night under such circumstances.

"You guys are leaving right after you got back?" Constance asked quickly, "When can you come back?"

She also wanted Sylvia to continue teaching her swordsmanship!

"I don't know. If we capsize in the gutter, we might not be able to come back," Sylvia said with a casual smile. "Don't worry, it shouldn't be long."

"If you have any problems these days, go to Seymour and he will help you."

Carlos and several other young people were eager to go with them, but Ron and the others firmly rejected them. "We don't want your first adventure to be your last," Ivy half-threateningly persuaded these young people to go back, "The experienced adventurer team has already been involved. If there is any emergency, we can't take care of you!"

When Ron and others gathered outside the trading post early the next morning, they found that Carolina's group had already dismantled their tents and left early.

"They ran pretty fast. Are they afraid we'll chase them away?" Driver observed the traces left by these people with disdain. "They're all gone. Twelve in total. Their footprints and smells match. They probably didn't intend to plot against us."

Ron and his team had always been extremely cautious with these people, guarding against them from carrying out another round of assassinations like they did last time.

"They must be afraid of you too," Spike smiled, "This is your territory. The longer you stay here, the less safe it will be."

Victoria ignored their words, her attention focused on the bushes not far away.

The holy symbol was getting hot, burning her skin, and the priest believed that this might be Heim reminding her of something she needed to pay attention to.

But to be honest, she saw nothing.

"You seem a little absent-minded," Sylvia noticed Victoria's abnormality as the team moved forward and gradually approached the waterfall. "You have been staring at other places along the way. Did you find anything?"

"No, I didn't see anything," Victoria said with a hint of confusion in her voice, "but that's what I'm worried about."

She held Helm's holy emblem in her palm and let Sylvia touch it. As soon as the dhampir extended her finger, she immediately retracted it: "What is this? This is the first time I know that Helm is hostile to a half-blood like me!"

"It's not hostility, it's a reminder," the priest frowned. "Since we first came out, I've always felt that there is something watching us and following us. But I can't find any clues. It's really strange."

"Maybe you're too nervous?" Ivy, who was walking in the front, turned around and said, "After all, we hardly had any rest, so it's normal to be overly alert."

"If you hadn't held that holy symbol of yours so tightly, you wouldn't have felt the heat."

"I hope so." Victoria muttered, and after taking another look at an old tree not far away, she put away the holy emblem.

"That's it!" Spike and his companions walked in front and pointed to a waterfall over there, "It's right behind here!"

This is the upper reaches of the river near Ron and his territory. The waterway from the southeast outside the Delusion Land has a fault here. The turbulent river water rushes down and creates a river in the Delusion Land.

"Where is that 'prophet'?" Sera looked left and right, but couldn't find any trace of the so-called prophet. "Could you have been deceived? Could it be that the guy robbed you and killed you and then ran away?"

"No," Spike shook his head, but he was also confused as to why the man disappeared. "Wilson and the others were still alive before we left. I can guarantee that."

"Could it be that he saw that we were taking a long time to arrive, so he went back in?"
