The knight in the abyss

Chapter 798 What is the purpose

After getting rid of that abnormal space, everyone walked through a long corridor again, but this time they didn't go back.Finally, the group came to a room that seemed to be the gravekeeper's rest room, and at the end of the room was a stone statue about ten feet high, depicting a skeleton angel wearing a hood and cloak, holding a A large, empty stone urn.

According to the two ghost guards before, they need to offer blood, so that the stone gate will open.

"Friends, we seem to have encountered a problem." Brutal stood on tiptoe, looking at the inside of the stone urn, "This basin seems a bit too big, even if I were to be killed, it would be impossible to fill it..."

"It seems that you don't know enough about your own body." Lancelot shook his head lightly, "However, we don't need to bleed our own blood..."

"Then who is it? The enemies here are all zombies and skeletons, and they can't be used like before..."

"As soon as I heard the word blood, I thought of a perfect way, no one will be hurt..." Lancelow reached out and untied the dimensional bag, and took out an oak barrel from it, "Maybe you have to except."

"What? What are you doing with my week's stock?"

"Let me remind you." Kara Lin on the side said with a smile, "Little Isa is a vampire, but have you ever seen her go hunting?"

"What's wrong with little Isa... dammit! Turn wine into blood!" Brutal's face turned green in an instant, and he rushed forward, hugging the barrel tightly, "No! You can't do this! !! This will be condemned by God!!!”

"The gods can't know the situation in the Demon Realm." The elf priest said in a theologically authoritative tone, "Besides, this is definitely more appropriate than using our own blood. Even if the soul forger knows, it must be understandable. Is not it?"

"We still have two months of stock, which is definitely enough for you to drink." Lancelot tried to appease Brutal, "I will replenish the stock immediately when I return to the Wolf's Head Tavern after the end."

"But it's an inexcusable waste..."

"Stinky boy, get up!" Barend slapped his son's butt hard, "Don't embarrass me!"

"No, no." Lancelot replied with a smile, "We're used to it."

"You guys are so cruel, why are you so determined to do this kind of thing..." Brutal cried, "This barrel can only be bought in Shuangqiao Town for [-] gold coins... Otherwise, I drank the wine , you spill my blood, okay?"

"Even if you drink it all, the wine will not turn into blood in your body."

"Hey..." The young dwarf sighed, got up from the barrel, and walked to the door, "You can do whatever you like, I really can't watch that kind of scene... "

"Thank you for your sacrifice. We will always miss this cask."

"Stop talking, hurry up and do it."

Turning wine into blood is a second-level spell, originally it could only convert a bottle of good wine about half a liter into blood, but with Kara Lin around, he quickly found a few key points that needed to be changed and turned it into Casting a three-ring spell is enough to turn a whole barrel of wine into blood as if it came from an intelligent creature.

After the scholar finished casting the spell, Lancelot carefully poured the liquid in the barrel into the stone urn held by the statue, not a single drop was wasted - the remaining half of the barrel was the drink of a blood-sucking creature.It is said that Kara Lin also made some changes to this spell, making the transformed blood taste sweeter and have a faint smell of red dates. Even Little Isa's mysterious ancient vampire mentor also gave praise.

Of course, when he did this, he had already pinned Star Strike and the Sword of Zariel to his waist, and the rest of his partners also looked like they were facing a big enemy: if a strong enemy appeared like before, That would be great fun.

After the stone urn was filled, a certain pre-set mechanism was triggered.The stone urn of the statue was slowly raised to the lips, and at the same time, the chin slid half an inch downward, revealing a funnel-like mouth, and the blood in the stone urn was also poured into the statue from the square mouth. body of.

There was another rumbling muffled sound in the distance, which indicated that the mechanism had been triggered correctly.Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After working for so long, they were finally getting close to the final truth.

But Lancelot's brows were suddenly frowned. His spiritual sense had just sensed a burst of energy of considerable intensity, as if the embankment of a reservoir had been washed away suddenly, and the direction seemed to be happening at Shimen In the hall where he was, this made him feel a little uneasy.

"It seems that there is no other arrangement here." Karalin glanced around again to confirm that there was no sign of enemy attack, "But having said that, the trap just now was really ingenious. If Lancelow hadn't reminded me, I would never have thought of it. The way to crack it, if it were an ordinary person, would probably be completely trapped in it... Lancelot, what is your expression? Is there something wrong?"

"I was thinking, what is the purpose of setting up these obstacles to prevent latecomers from opening the stone gate..."

"What's there to think about?" Brutal asked strangely, "Of course it's to prevent us from opening the stone gate, learning the secrets about the Lord of the Demon Realm, and finding a way to completely defeat it."

"I thought so at first, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense." Lancelot frowned more and more tightly, "It was a group of hags who finally opened the stone gate, and the superb magical attainments of the hags can indeed Explain the layout along the way, but let's not forget that the hags and Peyton Derek, the master of this domain of terror, have a clear hostile relationship. What reason do they have to protect the secrets of their deadly enemies? "

The partners looked at each other, and no one could answer the human knight's question. In the end, it was Lancelot himself who broke the silence.

"Let's go, you will never be able to think of an answer here." He passed the dwarf who was still standing at the door, and walked towards the way he came. "There is one more thing I didn't say just now. The moment the mechanism was activated, I felt some kind of power was released from behind that stone gate. I don't know whether it's good or bad, whether we did something that might have serious consequences, but one thing is certain..."

"The seemingly peaceful situation in this Demon Realm is likely to be broken... Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem like a bad thing..."
