Chapter 52 Leaving (2/9)

Due to the cleanup done by "Chief" Colin and his team, there were no monsters in the church tower for the time being, so Abner easily slid down the stairs with completely corroded wooden boards to the deepest part of the basement.

As soon as he arrived here, the black gem left by the goddess on Abner's chest once again condensed the rich "darkness", and instantly led him into a deep "nightmare".

Abner felt that the ground beneath his feet completely disappeared, and he had to keep falling...

I don't know how long it took, but when he set his feet on the ground again, he had arrived in front of a double bronze door.

The dense symbols and strange patterns painted on the surface of the door are generally similar to the door in the "God of Luck" ruins, but the details are slightly different.

At this moment, the door has been opened, and there is no shadow of the "Sea of ​​Chaos" behind it, but illusory black doors arranged like the "torii gates" of the island country.

“In fact, I always feel that these bronze doors that originally sealed the ‘Sea of ​​Chaos’ are somewhat similar to the door in the body of the ‘Gatekeeper’ of the ‘God of Death’ pathway…

"In addition, people who die in front of this bronze gate that seals the 'Sea of ​​Chaos' can easily turn into resentful spirits, and then, under the aggregation of inexplicable forces, turn into 'ancient resentful spirits'... and 'ancient resentful spirits' Spirit' is the main source of material for the 'Gate' pathway.

“The ‘God of Death’ and the ‘Gate’, plus the ability to seal the entrance to the ‘Sea of ​​Chaos’… are they the work of ‘Ancestor of the Phoenix’ Gray Carrie?

"In addition, the authority of the 'God of Luck' has nothing to do with the 'God of Death' or the 'Gate'... When 'I' built this passage, in addition to getting help from the goddess, did the 'Ancestor of the Phoenix' also help?

"It seems like the 'God of Luck' really has a wide circle of friends!"

After sighing with pride or helplessness, Abner did not delay and walked directly into the opposite door.

But he soon discovered that he had not entered the passage composed of those black "torii gates".

Unlike the simple convenience of coming with the help of a "key", even if the passage is still open, if you want to go back, you must find a way to enter the dimensions of those "torii".

"In other words, do you have to be a pure spirit world creature or a star world creature to enter?" After using the "Pure White Eyes" to observe for a while, Abner suddenly realized, "Of course, if you reach the angel level, it will be no problem... …

"Fortunately, I didn't ask to take the little 'Sun' out to play just now... otherwise I would be embarrassed now!"

Although he also has an extraordinary item "Cyan Shadow" in his hand that can transform into a "special resentment soul", it is actually not pure. Short-distance "shuttle" is no problem, but "shuttle" across such an ultra-long distance is not a problem. Channel" is prone to problems.

However, such conditions are not difficult for Abner himself.

I saw "starlight" suddenly shining in his pure white eyes, and then his whole person turned into shining insects.

"Star Worm"!

This is the signature ability "mimicry" that can only be used by "insighters" that Abner has mastered in advance by using "Pure White Eyes". It can temporarily change into an incomplete mythical form that is completely analyzed by itself.

Although Abner's inspiration told him not to rely on "Pure White Eyes" to use this ability frequently, it is not a big problem to use it a few times in emergencies.

As his transformation was completed, the "Star Worm" entered the passage in a "flash", and then passed through countless "torii"-like black doors in a few seconds and appeared on the "wall" on the other side. "forward.

Abner quickly canceled the transformation to prevent Edwina from seeing him in his "incomplete mythical creature form" and falling into madness.

In addition, he also took the time to transform into a suit of clothes and put it on himself - the transformation just now made the original stone armor completely useless.

Although this trip seemed to have done a lot, it actually only took more than three hours from departure to return, so "Iceberg Lieutenant General" Edwina was still waiting here.

At this moment, when she saw that Abner had returned safely, she was relieved and came to greet him.

Abner asked her to wait for a moment, then turned around and took down the "key" stone slab on the wall, closing the secret passage to prevent any monster from the opposite side from taking the opportunity to come over, which would not be good. .

As an experienced explorer, Edwina guessed Abner's thoughts as soon as she saw his movements, so she asked with shining eyes: "Is the other side of the passage dangerous?"

Hearing this, Abner recalled the unique perspective of the "Star Worm" while nodding and replied: "It is very dangerous! Without the protection of the gods, I may not be able to come back."

He wasn't exaggerating. Without the goddess's secret, he might be discovered by the "True Creator". It's hard to say whether he would be able to come back by then.

Of course, this is also to dispel Edwina's idea of ​​exploring.

"So dangerous...you weren't hurt, were you?" Edwina frowned, then her light blue eyes turned dark, and she began to look at Abner's body carefully.

"Don't!" Abner quickly stopped, but it was too late. Edwina's eyes were blank for a few seconds, and then she immediately stopped the secret technique.

Now, the only piece of cloak on the two of us is real cloth... If we turn on "real vision" at this time, wouldn't something happen? Abner cursed a few times, quickly changed the subject, and told Edwina some of his experiences in Afternoon Town.

Of course, he temporarily hid everything about the Floating City and Silver City, and only talked about the environment and monsters there.

"The door that separates reality and myth...the Royal Court of Giants..." Edwina repeated several times with shining eyes, wanting to go and see it in person.

But her "weakness" did not allow her to do this... After all, even Abner could not guarantee that she would be able to come back. If she went, death would probably be the best outcome.

With this thought in mind, Edwina touched the brass mirror in her hand and decided to become a demigod as soon as possible.

She was originally ordered to intercept the Aurora Society's divine envoy and indirectly rescued Abner, Hugh, and Miss Gwen. After that, she was given a brass mirror by the gods that could be used to "prophesy."

And after the crisis of the "Pale Admiral" is successfully resolved and the mission of the gods is completed, the ownership of this sealed object will completely belong to her.

Edwina knew clearly that this brass mirror was actually the "magic potion" material given to her by the gods for promotion, but she had not yet found a way to crush it and restore it to its characteristics.

In addition, her "Secret Master" potion had just been digested not long ago, so she was not in a hurry before.

But now, she suddenly felt a sense of urgency - Abner was walking faster and faster, and she had to keep up, otherwise she would just wait like this time.

While Edwina was thinking about her thoughts, she chatted with Abner about the details of the afternoon town's environment. The two quickly walked up the stairs and returned to the throne of "The God of Luck".

Looking at this tall, strong, yet handsome ancient god, both Abner and Edwina stopped talking, as if they didn't want to disturb his sleep.

Of course, Edwina may be in awe, but Abner's heart is full of defiance.

Finally, he learned from Reinette Tinichole's habits and put a "label" on the head of his most "old" self - "Cao Thief"!

After spurning himself, Abner took "Lieutenant General Iceberg" down to the first floor of the palace, then picked up some gold and silver jewelry that Russell had not moved away, and gave some to Edwina. After that, he left the ruins of this "God of Luck".

I have gained a lot this time, and other things are not what I should take now!

Before leaving the hall, Abner looked back at the "Perfector Card" and "Knowledge Teacher" attributes that Russell left here, knowing that the latter was most likely to be used for the "Mechanical Emperor" after the "resurrection" For advanced use.

Even though the body of the "Machine Emperor" had been completely blown up, Abner felt that the yellow gem-shaped thing like a "relic" might be the key to Liu Bo's death but not stiffness in the past.

As long as that thing exists, combined with the characteristics of my life, there should be hope of being "resurrected" as my clone.

"It seems like... even Daniel may not be completely dead... and after the sealed object '1-025' he transformed into was 'sacrified' by me, it is probably currently in the original body of the 'Bound God'... ...and Si'a is probably invading that body and seizing the Sequence 1 'divine' characteristics in it..."

Just when Abner was thinking wildly, Edwina also looked back at the "God of Luck", "Knowledge Teacher" attributes and blasphemous cards in the palace, and couldn't help but asked softly: "Don't take them away. ?"

"It's likely to be dangerous... let's forget it... it's not too late to come back and get it after we have enough strength. Before that, it's better to let the 'Voltron' defensive ritual arranged by Russell protect this place..." Ai Buna replied casually.

However, this is not a lie. His intuition tells him that if he takes away the characteristics of the "God of Luck" without resurrecting him as his own clone, I am afraid that the fate of himself and Edwina will be greatly deflected... To the bad side!

Although the "God of Luck" is named "lucky", he will obviously not be lenient when giving "bad luck" to others.

Especially after Abner's observation, the "luck" and "bad luck" accumulated in the body of the "God of Luck" are somewhat imbalanced. At present, the "bad luck" has far exceeded the "luck". I don't know if it is just like this or something happened to him. misfortune.

At the same time, he also thought of the "Crystal Ball of Misfortune" that he got from the original owner of the Sweet Leaf Bar, "Hercules" Ozil, and later gave it to Klein for safekeeping. That thing was inextricably linked to the "God of Luck" The person who holds it will even dream about the location of this ruins.

Abner suspected that it was deliberately released to release the "bad luck" from the "God of Luck".

However, this expedition did not use it from beginning to end... According to Abner's original expectation, the crystal ball should be a prop for passing a certain "level".

"Well, it should be Russell's fault... He used his strength to bulldoze the level that originally required the 'Crystal of Doom', leaving six iron lions to guard it.

"The lion suppresses evil and suppresses bad luck. There may be an element of 'mysterious reappearance' in this... Okay, I can't make it up anymore."

After Abner murmured a few words in his mind, he pulled Edwina out of the gate of the ruins under her increasingly doubtful gaze.
