“The chances of winning are so high?!” Joy appeared in everyone’s eyes.

"But the prerequisite is that we have to find the other three 'supreme' artifacts."

"We only know the whereabouts of the King's Scepter, but what about the other three? Where are they?"

"Why panic? We have the prophet Miles here. As long as these three artifacts are still in the treasury, we will find them sooner or later."

After everyone discussed for a while, they looked at Lin Qiye eagerly.

Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully, "In fact, in the prophecy just now, I have vaguely sensed the location of the Holy Grail."

"Has the Holy Grail been found? So quickly?" the agents asked in surprise.

"Well, if I'm not mistaken, the Holy Grail is hidden in a dry oasis in the desert..."

"Then let's go now!"

“…Don’t be anxious.” Lin Qiye held his forehead with a tired look, “Just now, I only roughly sensed its location, and I don’t know exactly how far it is. Moreover, due to continuous predictions, my mental strength has been overdrawn.

How about this, we rest here for one night, and I will go find the Holy Grail tomorrow after I recover.”

After hearing this, some agents looked a little embarrassed.

"But we only have less than two days left. If the marks left by the two gods in our bodies take effect..."

"Haha, you are too nervous." Lin Qiye said slowly with a smile on his face.

“After I recover tomorrow morning, I will be able to predict the whereabouts of all the artifacts. This treasury is not too big. If we search one by one, we can collect all the artifacts in half a day at most.

Now, we are tied to the same rope. If you can't get the four artifacts and kill the two gods, then I will be trapped here by them forever.

How could I harm you?"

Everyone thought for a moment and their expressions relaxed a little.

"Okay then, let's rest here tonight and set out to find the Holy Grail tomorrow." Claude nodded in response.

…

The dungeon was attacked?

When the city lord heard the report from a servant, his face suddenly turned gloomy. What about the invader?

They... were all still imprisoned, except for one of the servants who had an argument with them before, who was dead, having his head smashed open by someone.

The servant seemed to recall some disgusting scene and his face turned pale.

People died, but they didn't run away? The city lord frowned slightly, and a puzzled look appeared on his old face.

Is it... just pure revenge?

We don’t know. We asked the invaders but they didn’t say anything.

...I understand. The city lord was silent for a moment. For countless years, there had never been any invaders in Wucheng, but this time so many of them appeared at once...

Is this world really going to be in chaos?

City Lord, what should we do now?

Tomorrow morning, we will kill the invaders and offer them as sacrifices to the three gods... and send the dead servant with them. The city lord said slowly,

Notify all residents in the city to enter a state of highest alert and be ready to activate the inherited and maintained artifacts at any time to deal with more foreign invasions.

Hearing this, the attendant's face changed:

City Lord, is the matter so serious?

Even if more than 20 invaders came at once this time, weren't they suppressed by you instantly? As long as we have your [Scepter] in place, no matter how many invaders come, they won't be a threat to us, right?

No matter how powerful the [Scepter] is, it is only a divine weapon, and we are all ordinary people. The city lord looked down at the cane in his hand, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Moreover, not all supreme artifacts in this world are under our control.

Are you worried about...

The city lord sighed and looked out the window at the dark city of Wu. May the three gods bless us...

…

The sky gradually brightened.

The morning sun shone on the ancient brick and stone road. More than ten servants, holding one end of the silver lock, led more than twenty prisoners with black bags on their heads and walked towards the execution platform at the edge of the city.

Many residents stood on both sides of the street, carefully looking at the more than 20 invaders, with curiosity mixed with a hint of timidity.

They were the ones who caused trouble in the city yesterday!

It is said that they are invaders from outside this world? What do they look like?

They are almost the same as us, with two eyes, a nose and a mouth, except that the skin color of some of them is different from ours, it is whiter than bleached cloth!

Really? I didn't see it yesterday?

Fortunately, you were not there, otherwise they would have almost chopped off my arm... If the city lord had not intervened in time, I would have been sacrificed to the three gods.

Kill them quickly!

…

Amid the shouts of the residents of Wucheng, more than twenty agents were brought to the center of the execution platform.

Sharp knife lights flashed one after another, and after a moment, more than twenty bloody corpses fell to the ground with a thud, and blood slowly flowed down along the support of the execution platform.

Sacrifice to the three gods!

Someone among the attendants shouted loudly, and everyone immediately threw all the twenty or so corpses into an ancient blood-red stone well.

The dull sound of falling objects echoed in the ancient well. More than 20 bloody corpses were all submerged in the narrow darkness and disappeared.

May the three gods bless you.

When everyone saw this, they bowed their heads and recited.

After the execution, when the crowd dispersed, the servants threw a corpse with a smashed head hidden under a black cloth in the corner into the ancient well.

They stood by the ancient well, staring into the abyss before them, and muttered to themselves:

May the three gods bless...

After the servants left, the area around the ancient well fell into complete silence.

No one noticed that in the deepest part of this dark and narrow ancient well, three motionless figures like stone statues slowly opened their eyes.

So many sacrifices have come... Should this be enough sacrifices for the Holy Grail?

One of the stone statues spoke in a low voice.

Rustle, rustle——

Fine gravel fell from the central stone statue, and a dusty arm rose up, holding up a mysterious dark golden cup.

The sticky blood was shaking on the edge of the cup, and it was already more than halfway up the cup.

A dim light flashed, and more than twenty bloody corpses piled in the center of the ancient well automatically floated up, turning into pools of blood and flowing into the dark golden cup.

Hmm? The stone statue in the center narrowed its eyes. These offerings...are lifeless.

No life?

This is a soulless artificial body, and cannot be used as a sacrifice for the Holy Grail. The stone statue in the center was silent for a moment, and an outsider entered the King's Treasury.

Is it someone sent by another kingdom of God? The stone statue on the left frowned slightly.

I can’t believe that after all this time, there are still people who are thinking about this treasure house… Since these are all artificial bodies without souls, then those idiots above must have been fooled by outsiders.

Their true bodies must be hidden somewhere in this [treasure house].
