After leaving the room, Klein carefully placed the cane and lantern in the same hand, leaving his left palm free so that he could immediately reach for the WWW...lā in the pocket on the same side if something unexpected happened.
There were spells, an Azik copper whistle, some tarot cards, and all of Rosago's legacy features, the "All-Black Eyes", which gathered all of his means of dealing with the situation.
Klein and the bodyguard took only one step to the side, and the light from the lantern illuminated the emblem on the gate next to them. It was a stick figure baby surrounded by wheat ear symbols, flower symbols, and spring water symbols.
“The holy emblem of Mother Earth…” Klein said solemnly and in a low voice.
As a former Night Watchman, identifying the symbols of other churches is one of the basic skills.
The bodyguard nodded slightly, as if to express her affirmation.
Her black Gothic court dress looked even more eerie and terrifying in this environment and atmosphere, and her pale face illuminated by the lantern made her look like a resentful ghost.
If other adventurers came here and saw this scene, they would definitely be scared and run away in a panic, stumbling.
Klein held his breath, stretched out his left hand, pushed the stone door open, 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.
Crossing the open space paved with wheat-colored flagstones, Klein used a lantern to illuminate the three steps ahead.
On the steps there is a four or five-meter-high white stone sculpture. It is a plump and graceful lady with wheat ears growing under her feet and springs surrounding her. She wears flowing clothes with various herbs and flowers inserted in her outer clothes, and depicts images of different animals.
The lady's chest is puffed out and she is holding a cute baby in a swaddling cloth in her hands. She looks holy and dignified.
“Isn’t it a statue of the Mother Earth?” Klein whispered with a slight smile on his face.
The bodyguard neither answered nor denied it.
After checking around, the two of them left the room and opened the third door next to it.
Behind this door is a corridor that can accommodate four people walking side by side. The front is dark, deep, mysterious and strange, and no one knows where it leads to.
"Let's first check what's behind the four doors on the right," Klein suggested.
He didn't dare to go in rashly.
The bodyguard lady floated back and gave her answer with action.
The two of them opened the four stone doors on the right one by one, and saw the "Holy Emblem of the Storm" composed of symbols of strong winds and waves, the "Holy Emblem of the Sun" surrounded by knotty lines, the "God of War Emblem" composed of dusk symbols and sword-shaped symbols, and the "Holy Emblem of Knowledge and Wisdom" represented by an open book and an all-seeing eye.
Correspondingly, there are four statues of suspected gods in the room:
There is a majestic middle-aged man wearing black armor, standing on the waves, surrounded by storms, with lightning on his back, and holding a trident;
There is a young man in a pure white robe, holding a book of contract in one hand and a golden ball like the sun in the other. He is handsome and energetic.
There was a warrior sitting high on the throne, holding a long sword in front of him. His face was hidden behind a visor, and his armor had an indescribable sense of tatters.
There was an old man holding a book and an all-seeing eye, wearing a hood with only his mouth, wrinkles and long white beard showing.
Except for the God of Steam and Machinery, the six orthodox gods all have prayer rooms with humanoid statues in this strange hall!
Considering the weak position of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery before Roselle appeared, this problem seems to have some explanation.
“How bizarre…” Klein exclaimed, half unable to resist and half wanting to test the bodyguard’s reaction.
Such a magnificent hall with a depth of one hundred meters actually houses six orthodox gods.
This is unimaginable in this era!
How could the Church of the Six True Gods allow its Lord to be in the same building with other gods!
Is this a custom that only existed in the ancient Fourth Epoch? Also, what's up with that human-shaped statue? Although it looks normal and not as evil as the statues of the "Original Witch" and the "True Creator", it still feels weird... What happened to make the images of the six gods evolve into the current abstract symbols... No, maybe it was originally, but the owner here, a noble who is suspected to be a member of the Tudor family, deliberately created the human-shaped statues of the six gods for some purpose... Hiss, I thought of an item in a novel in my previous life, the Six Soul Banner... While waiting for the bodyguard's answer, Klein's thoughts were scattered.
Miss Bodyguard did not respond to this, and said calmly:
"There's another door."
Yes... Klein suddenly felt a little afraid.
In his opinion, the door placed in the center often has special meaning and may be the most core area of this ancient building.
Of course, this also probably means the most dangerous.
"What's your intuition about that place?" Klein hesitated for two seconds and asked directly.
Without the gray fog to eliminate interference, he felt that the 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 the spirit body, and could communicate with the spirit world without obstacles and receive enlightenment.
The bodyguard closed her eyes and replied after a few seconds:
“It’s very dangerous.”
"But the danger is restrained."
"Once you go deeper, don't move anything rashly."
The danger of being restrained... could this be equated to something being sealed inside? Klein made a guess and walked to the central stone door with the bodyguard and stepped onto the dark black floor.
The light from the lantern seemed to be a little dim, and it was very difficult to drive away the darkness ahead. Klein had already put his left hand into his pocket, holding the Azik copper whistle and a few talismans.
After walking about thirty steps, the bodyguard suddenly stopped.
Klein raised the lantern in his right hand and found that the road ahead was blocked by boulders and mud.
There is a stone door of the same shape as the hall on each side. The right side is half open and filled with mud and stones.
“Perhaps this ancient building was originally on the ground, but later sank into the ground for some unknown reason and collapsed a little.” Klein muttered, “There is only one direction we can choose…”
Before he finished speaking, he saw the bodyguard lady floating to the front, 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 crawled out from the mud on the right side, without a speck of dust on her body.
"It has completely collapsed." She concluded with a calm expression.
Klein was speechless for a moment and could only smile.
Then, they both looked at the stone door on the left which was not completely closed and left a gap.
Klein moved closer and carefully looked inside through the 3-centimeter gap.
The spiritual vision that was previously blocked by the stone gate suddenly made a discovery:
There were at least four strong and dazzling spiritual lights flashing inside, two of which were close to dark gold in color, and two were deep blue like the sea.
After the spiritual vision, a "narrow" scene emerged in Klein's normal vision:
The firelight that penetrated into the room illuminated the black stone slabs, on top of which lay piles of bones covered with rotten clothes, some of which emitted dark gold and deep blue light.
Condensed Beyonder properties? Magical items? As the thought flashed through his mind, Klein scanned the end of the room.
There, a large double door stood on the dark wall.
Bloody double doors!
There seemed to be fresh blood still on the door, reflecting the firelight and sliding down continuously.
Klein originally planned to let the bodyguard explore the way, but suddenly he felt a change in the Azik copper whistle in his hand!
The originally cold and gentle touch suddenly became piercing, deep and deadly!
This... Klein narrowed his eyes and instinctively took a step back.
Soon after, he found that his right forearm was numb, itchy and began to swell.
An image flashed through his mind, and Klein immediately took out a tarot card with his left hand and cut a wound on his right forearm.
What flowed out of the wound was not blood, but tiny wriggling black worms!
Sizzle!
These black bugs fell to the ground, corroding and producing a little smoke.
They struggled and huddled together, but eventually they melted in the light of the lantern.
After a few seconds, the black worms on Klein's wound finally stopped flowing out, and red began to overflow.
He moved his muscles to control the small wound and prevent the blood from flowing out.
The bodyguard watched this scene quietly, and her pretty eyebrows were rarely frowned.
Klein was about to speak, but he found that the coldness and silence of Azik's copper whistle had not diminished.
At the same time, his eyes swept over the shadow of the bodyguard lady.
She originally had no shadow!
“Run!” Klein shouted, and immediately ran towards the hall.
The bodyguard lady floated up quickly, and the two saw the light of the lantern in front of them was gradually swallowed up by a black shadow.
Dengdengdeng!
Klein ran as fast as he could, running like a hurricane in the increasingly dim light around him.
Dengdengdeng!
The shadow grew bigger, closer, and thicker. The flames were about to be completely engulfed, and at this moment, the gate was still several meters away. ..
At this moment, Klein instinctively lunged forward, then rolled over and passed the stone gate.
The firelight suddenly became brighter, and the uneasiness in his heart instantly dissipated, and the Azik copper whistle in his palm also returned to its soft and cold touch.
The bodyguard floated beside him, turned around and looked at the corridor that had once again fallen into darkness, with an uncertain tone in her voice:
"Evil spirit..."
Evil spirit? Klein almost gasped when he heard this. Fortunately, the Joker was very good at controlling his expressions and reactions.
In the field of mysticism, evil spirits are extremely terrifying monsters, and the best of them can even be equated with high-sequence strongmen!
An evil spirit wandering in the ancient building? An evil spirit that was restrained or bound in that room for some reason? Hmm... If it was really an evil spirit, it would explain why Mr. Azik's copper whistle reacted. An evil spirit is also a kind of undead creature... Klein stood up and looked at the corridor submerged in darkness. He felt as if there was a pair of cold eyes staring at him!
