After passing through the doorway and entering the underground area, Klein and Alger no longer had any natural light in front of them. The ceiling here was quite intact and had no gaps, so the crimson moonlight that penetrated the fog could not shine in.
Alger then raised the lantern in his hand a little higher, so that the wide corridor ahead, which had no end in sight, was stained with a distinctly dim yellow.
At a glance, Klein spotted at least six stone statues. There were both men and women, all gray and white, and even their clothes seemed to be carved.
Among these stone statues there are elves, giants, and humans with an ancient style. Apart from the fact that their expressions are filled with pain and despair, they have no similarities at all.
Being stared at like this without moving his eyes, and thinking about the fact that they might have once been alive, Klein felt a chill down his spine. He felt as if there was a terrifying monster deep in the tunnel, where darkness ruled, with its mouth wide open, waiting for the two of them to walk into its stomach.
Restraining their fluctuating emotions, neither Klein nor Alger spoke a word as they passed through the gray-white stone statues with distorted faces, moving forward step by step.
After walking for more than ten seconds, because of the light of the lantern, Klein did not need the help of the night vision ability of the "Wicked Spirit" Senior to see the broken and dim murals on the walls on both sides.
There are several paintings here that are relatively intact, allowing people to tell what they depict specifically. Their main themes are undoubtedly the huge cross covered with layers of light and the majestic figure standing in front of the cross.
This vague yet solemn figure was either facing the flood that had submerged the city-state and reached the mountainside, or stepping on the earth that had been split into pieces, or looking up at the starry sky above, and staring into one extremely evil and crazy eye after another that emerged from the deep darkness.
When the end of the world comes, the ancient sun god saves the world? This is similar to the murals that Little "Sun" and his friends found in the "True Creator" Temple... Or maybe, you copied me and I copied you. No one has given up their past efforts in this regard. Anyway, they have to emphasize that they were once the savior and the most worthy god to believe in... Klein's eyes moved quickly on the wall, and he slowly entered the depths of the corridor.
Alger was also observing the broken murals. Suddenly, he lowered his voice and spoke in a low voice:
"I doubt that the 'real' and 'fallen creator's' description of itself refers to these contents."
Sure enough, everyone had the same opinion... Klein tilted the left wheel of the Death Knell and said with a smile:
“I wouldn’t be surprised if I saw something related to the ‘True Creator’ ahead.”
"It is very likely that there is some kind of connection between Him and the Creator that Silver City believes in." Alger agreed with Gehrman Sparrow's judgment.
The two continued to move forward, trying to lighten their steps, but there were still slight echoes around them, and in the extremely quiet atmosphere, they walked towards the distance.
At this moment, Klein had an idea and took two steps forward, blocking Alger in front of him and blocking most of the light from the lantern.
Less than two seconds later, he heard a dull sound coming from far away.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground shook slightly, becoming more and more noticeable. Then, Klein saw a figure nearly four meters tall walking out in front of him.
It is also grayish white in color, with scale-like patterns carved on its body. It has goat-like horns on its head and a hound-like mouth, revealing fangs when it is half open and half closed.
What attracts the most attention is its burning red eyes and six pairs of gray-white membrane-covered wings.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The monster slowly entered the corridor, holding a seven or eight meter long stone spear. Every step it took caused the ground to shake, transmitting a heavy feeling to the surroundings.
Although Klein had never seen the real thing before, he recognized what it was at a glance.
This is a six-winged gargoyle!
Its core crystal is one of the main materials of the Secret Puppet Master. The extraordinary abilities it possesses must be extremely unique and difficult to guard against!
Judging from its appearance, size, and structural materials, it must be very capable in frontal combat and not afraid of most injuries... It only needs to slide over and smash with its heavy stone spear to cause horrific damage... Klein relaxed his left hand and did not rush to react.
He and Alger stayed where they were at the same time, one using his body and the other using his clothes to cover up the light of the lantern, making it very dim.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The six-winged gargoyle did not look in the direction where the two were, but crossed the corridor sideways, and the footsteps gradually became farther and farther away.
As expected, its senses were not strong... No wonder Qilingos was able to go deep underground and return successfully... Klein waited until the footsteps were no longer detectable before moving forward again and crossing the intersection.
In fact, with his current strength and equipment, and his understanding of the target, killing a six-winged gargoyle is not a very dangerous thing, and there is also the "Hanged Man" to provide help. The reason why he gave up the plan to attack was that he didn't know how many six-winged gargoyles there were in this underground area. Once a battle started, if there was a lot of noise, he might be surrounded. In that case, he could only rely on "travel" to escape forcibly. Moreover, if the nearby supernatural creatures were alarmed and dared not approach the ruins, the trouble would increase exponentially.
Controlling your greed is one of the prerequisites for adventurous exploration.
Alger was quite pleased with the crazy adventurer's calm and rational performance. He increasingly suspected that the other party was carrying out some orders from Mr. Fool, which was why he restrained the urge to attack the six-winged gargoyle.
The calmer he appeared, the crazier he would become when he met his real target... Alger had a flash of thought and followed Gehrman Sparrow through the intersection and walked straight ahead.
The murals on both sides are still in ruins, but they still occasionally tell of the greatness and sacredness of the ancient sun god.
Finally, Klein and Alger arrived at the end of the corridor. There was a seven or eight meter high stone door with various symbols related to death, sleep, ending, rebirth, and beginning engraved on it.
"A tomb?" Klein turned and asked Alger.
Alger nodded and said:
"It could also be a temple."
Obviously, he also suspected that the temples and tombs here were unified.
The gray stone door in front of the two men was not completely closed, leaving a gap that was big enough for a child to pass through. Alger glanced at his body, took the initiative to walk over, put down the lantern in his hand, inserted the short blade, and pressed his hands on the side of the door.
He took a slow breath, bent his knees, and suddenly expanded his arm muscles.
Silently, the gap became much wider.
Klein raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this scene. He was quite surprised because the Hanged Man didn't make any sound when he pushed the door.
He did not doubt the power of a "Sea Singer", but he did not think that the two stone doors had no contact with the ground.
Moving his sight downward, Klein saw a pool of stickier liquid in the gap at the bottom of the door.
Quietly creating a lubricating effect... Mr. "Hanged Man" is very meticulous... Is this the ability of "Navigator" or "Ocean Singer"? Well, he should also use the ability of "Wind Blesser" to create an "air cushion", so the "door opening" just now was silent... Klein roughly understood the reason.
He approached the stone door, but was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, he looked at the scene inside through the wide gap.
What caught the eyes of the "ghost" was the side area, where there was a row of gray-white sarcophagi.
It is indeed an underground burial hall... I don’t know whether it is integrated with the temple yet... As Klein thought about it, he pulled out "Lemanno's Travel Notes" with his left hand. It contains extraordinary abilities suitable for dealing with things related to the realm of death.
At the same time, he used the silver dagger to quickly create a spiritual wall to block the iron cigarette box to prevent the Azik copper whistle inside from causing the sleeping dead to wake up one by one.
Alger also drew out the short blade again, covered the side with his left palm, and slid forward.
A slight crackling sound was heard, and the short blade was wrapped around a silver-white electric snake with bared fangs and claws.
The two of them quickly made the corresponding preparations. Klein, who played the role of the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, was the first to pass through the crack in the door and enter the burial hall.
Of course, before he went in, the "ghost" Senior had already walked around the cemetery hall as a "sentinel".
For the "Master of Secret Dolls", having a secret doll means that there is no need to take risks on many things!
There was water seeping from the high places of this tomb hall, making it appear very damp. The interior was divided into two parts, left and right, each containing twelve grayish-white dark sarcophagi. There was an empty circular area in the center, and there seemed to be an exquisite and complex painting on the corresponding ground.
Klein did not approach and raised his hand to stop Alger. He then manipulated the Wrathful Spirit, Senior, to reveal his figure and quickly float to the air in the circular area.
“Admiral of Blood”… Alger’s facial muscles tensed suddenly.
Although he had guessed this a long time ago, he still found it difficult to control his subconscious reaction when he saw it with his own eyes.
At this time, Senior lowered his altitude and saw clearly what was depicted on the ground in the central area:
The picture was dark in tone, with blurry figures in the background and a long table as the main subject.
On the long table lay a figure carrying a glorious cross, surrounded by three shadowy figures.
One of them was handsome and vigorous, one was majestic and heroic, and one had a white beard and looked very wise, but all three pairs of eyes revealed an indescribable sense of evil, and their behavior was the same:
One of them tore off the figure's arm and stuffed it into his mouth, biting it until his mouth was full of blood. One of them held up the head and sucked the brains. The other dug out the still-beating heart and gnawed on it hungrily.
Opposite them, there was a long and wide gash between the chest and abdomen of the figure, and a sinister and dark-skinned baby was sitting cross-legged, chewing a piece of intestine, with blood dripping down.
The four of them seemed to be aware that someone was spying on them, and they looked upwards at the same time, as if they were watching every living being that saw the painting!
