Chapter 48 The Innermost Room
After leaving the room, Klein carefully placed the cane and the lantern in the same hand, leaving his left palm free, so that in case of emergency, he can immediately access the items in the pocket on the same side.
There are spells, Azik's copper whistle, and some tarot cards. In addition to Rosago's leftover characteristic "All Black Eyes", it has gathered all his countermeasures.
Klein and the bodyguard just took a step sideways, and the brilliance of the lantern illuminated the badge on the door next to it. It was a simple baby surrounded by wheat ear symbols, flower symbols, and spring water symbols.
"The holy emblem of the Mother Earth..." Klein said solemnly and in a low voice.
As a former Nighthawk, distinguishing the symbols of other churches is one of the basic skills.
The bodyguard lady nodded slightly, as if to express her affirmation.
In this environment and atmosphere, her black gothic court dress looked more gloomy and terrifying, and her pale face was illuminated by the lantern fire like a wraith.
If other adventurers came here and saw this scene, they would definitely be frightened and run away in embarrassment, stumbling.
Klein held his breath, stretched out his left palm, pushed open the stone door, and raised the lantern.
He found that the layout here was very consistent with the previous one, like a perfect fusion of a small prayer room and a giant statue.
Across the open space covered with ear-colored stone slabs, Klein used a lantern to illuminate the three steps in front of him.
On the steps, there is a white stone sculpture four or five meters high. It is a plump and soft lady with ears of wheat growing on the soles of her feet, surrounded by spring water, with elegant dresses, various herbal flowers inserted, and depictions of different animals. image of.
The lady's chest is swollen high, holding a cute baby hidden in a swaddle in her hands,
The whole is holy and dignified.
"It can't be the statue of the Mother Earth, right?" Klein said in a low voice with the corner of his mouth slightly hooked.
The bodyguard lady did not answer, nor did she deny it.
After checking around, the two exited the room and opened the third door next to it.
Behind this door is a corridor that can accommodate four people in parallel. The front is dark and deep, mysterious and strange, and it does not know where it leads.
"Let's first confirm what's going on behind the four doors on the right," Klein suggested.
He didn't dare to go too deep.
Miss Bodyguard floated back, and responded with actions.
The two opened the four stone doors on the right one by one, and saw the "Holy Storm Emblem" composed of symbols of strong wind and waves, the "Sacred Emblem of the Sun" surrounded by knotted lines, and the "Emblem of God of War" composed of twilight symbols and sword-shaped symbols. , and the "Sacred Symbol of Knowledge and Wisdom" represented by an open book and an all-seeing eye.
Correspondingly, there are four suspected statues of gods in the room:
There is a majestic middle-aged man wearing black armor, stepping on the waves, surrounded by storms, with lightning on his back, and holding a trident;
A young man with a pure white robe covering his body, holding a book of contract in one hand, and a golden ball like a sun in the other, he is handsome and energetic;
There is a warrior sitting on the throne with a long sword in front of him. His face is hidden behind the visor, and the whole body of armor has an indescribable sense of dilapidation;
There are old men with books and all-seeing eyes, wearing hoods showing only mouths, wrinkles, and long white beards.
Except for the god of steam and machinery, the six orthodox gods all have prayer rooms and humanoid statues in this weird hall!
Considering the weak status of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery before the appearance of Roselle, there seems to be some kind of explanation for this problem.
"It's really weird..." Klein sighed, half unable to bear it and half wanting to test the reaction of Miss Bodyguard.
In such a magnificent hall with a depth of 100 meters, there are actually six orthodox gods gathered.
This is unimaginable in this day and age!
How could the Church of the Six True Gods allow its Lord and other gods to be in the same building!
Is this a custom of the ancient Quaternary? Also, what happened to the human statue, although it looks normal, not as evil as the statues of the "Primary Witch" and "True Creator", but it still makes people feel weird... What happened? , Let the images of the six gods evolve into the current abstract symbols... No, maybe it is, but the owner here, a nobleman who is suspected to be a member of the Tudor family, deliberately shaped the human figures of the six gods for a certain purpose The statue... Hiss, I thought of an item in the novel of my previous life, the Six Soul Banner... While waiting for Miss Bodyguard's answer, Klein wandered off his thoughts.
The bodyguard lady did not respond in this regard, and said in a bland manner:
"There is another door."
That's right... Klein suddenly felt a little scared.
In his opinion, the door placed in the center often has a special meaning, perhaps the core area of this ancient building.
Of course, this probably means the most dangerous.
"What intuition do you have there?" Klein hesitated for two seconds before asking directly.
Without the use of gray fog to eliminate interference, he felt that Miss Bodyguard's inspiration and spiritual intuition were more reliable than his current level of divination. After all, the other party's state was very special, close to a spirit body, and he could communicate with the spirit world without barriers and obtain enlightenment.
The bodyguard lady closed her eyes, and it took a few seconds before she replied:
"very dangerous."
"But the danger is restrained."
"After going deep, don't move any items rashly."
The danger of being restrained... Could this be equivalent to something sealed inside? Klein made guesses, and came to the stone door in the center with Miss Bodyguard, and stepped on the deep black floor.
The flame of the lantern seemed to be a little weaker, and it was very difficult to drive out the darkness ahead. Klein had already put his left hand into his pocket, holding the copper whistle of Azik and a few charms.
After walking about thirty steps, Miss Bodyguard suddenly stopped.
Klein raised the lantern in his right hand, and found that the front was blocked by boulders and mud.
There is a stone door with the same shape as the hall on the left and right sides, and the right side is half open, and the inside is filled with mud and rocks.
"Perhaps this ancient building was on the ground at the beginning, but it sank into the ground for some reason and collapsed." Klein muttered, "There is only one direction we can choose..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the bodyguard lady floating forward, sticking to the boulder, melting into it, and disappearing.
The corner of Klein's mouth twitched, and he began to wait patiently.
After a few minutes, the bodyguard lady emerged from the mud on the right side, her body was not stained with any dust.
"It's completely collapsed." She concluded with a flat expression.
Klein was speechless for a moment and could only smile.
Then, the two looked at the stone door on the left that was not completely closed and left a gap at the same time.
Klein approached and carefully looked inside through the gap of about 3 centimeters.
The spiritual vision that was previously blocked by the stone gate suddenly appeared:
There are at least four clusters of intense and dazzling spiritual light shining inside, two clusters are close to the color of dark gold, and two clusters are as dark as the sea.
After the spirit vision, a "narrow" scene appeared in Klein's normal vision:
The firelight penetrating the room revealed black stone slabs, on which were piles of bones covered with rotting clothing, some of which had dark gold and dark blue rays shining through them.
Condensed Extraordinary characteristics? Magic item? As thoughts flickered, Klein swept to the end of the room.
There stood a double door in the dark wall.
Open the door bloody!
There seemed to be fresh blood left on the door, and they were constantly sliding down, reflecting the light of the fire.
Klein originally planned to let Miss Bodyguard explore the way, but suddenly he felt the Azik copper whistle in his palm change!
The originally cold and soft touch was piercing, deep and dead silent!
This... Klein narrowed his eyes and instinctively took a step back.
Immediately afterwards, he found that his right forearm was numb and itchy, and it began to swell.
A picture flashed in his mind, Klein immediately took out a tarot card with his left hand, and cut a wound on his right forearm.
What gushed out of that wound was not blood, but tiny black worms wriggling!
Nourish!
These black worms fell to the ground, corroding a little smoke.
They struggled and huddled together, but finally melted into the flames of the lantern.
After a few seconds, the strips of black worms on Klein's wound finally ran out, and red began to overflow.
He squirmed his muscles, controlled the small wound, and kept the blood from flowing out.
Miss Bodyguard watched this scene quietly, her pretty brows were rarely frowned.
Klein was about to speak, but found that the coldness and dead silence of Azik's copper whistle hadn't abated.
At the same time, his gaze caught the shadow of Miss Bodyguard.
She was originally without a shadow!
"Run!" Klein yelled in a low voice, and immediately fled towards the hall.
The bodyguard lady floated up quickly, and the two saw the light of the lantern in front of them gradually being engulfed by a mass of black shadows.
Thumb up!
Klein ran as fast as he could, running like a hurricane in the dimming light around him.
Thumb up!
The black shadow is getting bigger, getting closer, and getting thicker, and the fire is about to be completely swallowed up. At this time, the gate is still several meters away.
At this moment, Klein jumped forward according to his instinct, and immediately rolled over one after another, crossing the stone gate.
The fire suddenly brightened, and the uneasiness in his heart dissipated instantly, and the Azik copper whistle in his palm also returned to a soft and cold touch.
The bodyguard lady floated beside him, turned around and looked at the passage that had fallen into deep and dark again, her tone was uncertain:
"The evil spirit..."
Evil spirit? Klein almost gasped when he heard that. Fortunately, the clown is very good at controlling his expressions and reactions.
In the field of mysticism, evil spirits are very terrifying monsters, and the best of them can even be equated with high-sequence powerhouses!
Evil spirits that linger in ancient buildings? The evil spirit that was restrained or bound in that room for some reason? Hmm... If it's really an evil spirit, it can explain why Mr. Azik's copper whistle reacted, and evil spirits are also considered a type of undead creature... Klein stood up straight, and also looked at the dark passageway, only I felt as if there was a pair of cold eyes staring at me!
