The Death Knight of the Secret World

Chapter 52 0052. The Gap of the Underworld
A few Nightkeepers who were clearly high-sequence transcendents worked for a while in the center of the altar, but they got nothing, not even valuable information.

A nightman who is obviously a senior sequencer said: "The death toll in this case is too many, and there are obvious traces of large-scale sacrifices to evil gods, plus the death of a Transcendent who belonged to the church, I think... ...you can notify Red Gloves!"

Hopkins frowned, and waved his hand a little irritably: "Notify the red gloves, this is no longer a situation that our ordinary night guards can handle."

The night guard nodded solemnly and retreated, and began to arrange for people to notify the red-gloved members to come over.

The Church of the Goddess of the Evernight has a large number of extraordinary people, about six to seven hundred people. They are headed by the Pope stationed in Cold Winter County. Under the Pope are thirteen archbishops and nine senior deacons, and nearly half of them have reached the level of demigods. The others are also Sequence 700 Extraordinary recognized by holy objects.

These 22 bigwigs are completely equal in terms of status, they only follow the oracle of the goddess of the night, and they are only responsible to the pope.Below that are the bishops of the dioceses and the deacons of the nighthawks, who are sufficient to be promoted to Sequence 5.

Because the Sequence Five of God's Path mastered by the Church of Evernight is called [Night Watchman], the team of extraordinary people belonging to the Church of the Evernight Goddess is also called the Night Watchman traditionally, and the elite team inside the Night Watchman is called the Red Gloves.

Generally speaking, the night watchman team has its own jurisdiction, and they cannot go outside the jurisdiction to hunt down criminals without permission, but some evil guys always shoot and change places, which causes a lot of inconvenience.

For this reason, the Church of the Evernight Goddess specially set up the "Red Gloves" within the Nighthawks. They are strictly selected elite members, and even have some sacred objects. Restricted tracking and arrest of dangerous superhumans who are concerned.

Red Gloves is a high-level nightman of the Church of the Goddess of the Night. It used to be the [Punishment Organ] within the church. The minimum members in it are Transcendents of Sequence Seven. Almost every big city in the Northern Continent has a certain number of Red Gloves as town halls. The presence.

As the capital of the Loen Kingdom, a major country in the northern continent, Backlund has more than double-digit members of the Red Gloves, and there are even two superpowers who have advanced to Sequence Four, who can be called demigods.

But the red gloves will not be dispatched easily, unless there is a conflict between the churches of the gods, or some high-level events are involved, such as evil gods causing trouble, such as large-scale blood sacrifice massacres and the like.

Of course, if there is an attack on the nightman or a mass incident against the church, the red gloves will also be dispatched.

And the transcendent who can serve as the leader of the Red Gloves is actually a big boss on active duty, or a big boss in reserve.

The process of notifying the red gloves was a bit complicated, but Hopkins still had some energy inside the church. After waiting for more than half an hour, a team of four superhumans wearing red silk gloves arrived on the scene.

This efficiency is much higher than that of the black-skinned public servants in the Nancheng branch.

As soon as the four red gloves arrived at the scene, they briefly learned about the situation with Hopkins, and then walked to the small platform in the middle of the pile of dead bodies.

"There is negative energy dissipating from the core area, and it is suspected that it is pointing to the sacrificial channel of the evil god!" The team leader, the red-gloved team leader, quickly judged the situation.

Then, he lightly tapped on his chin, a gust of wind blew by, and a strong phantom of an evil spirit appeared beside him.

Because Beomi couldn't completely close her spiritual vision, she almost witnessed the whole process of the red-gloved captain summoning the evil spirit.

As soon as he knocked on the chin, a burst of spiritual light erupted from the rear molars, and an evil spirit wearing old-fashioned full-body armor tore something apart and stepped out.

This evil spirit in full body armor has obvious black resentment wrapped around his body, and his pair of red eyes look extremely frightening, and - he is holding something.

Holding a round shield in the style of Intis hundreds of years ago in his left hand, and a rusty long sword in his right hand, the whole ghost looked murderous.

And Beomi narrowed her eyes a little, turned up the effect of spiritual vision, and could even see the faint bloodstains on the evil spirit's armor.

"Woo..." The big black dog Tindalos was very sensitive to this evil spirit. He jumped in front of Beomi, bent down, bared his teeth and let out a deep purr, as if he would pounce on him at any time.

Beomy was taken aback by this guy, and hurriedly stepped forward, patting the big black dog's hairy head with her hand.

"This is not an enemy, this is a summoned object belonging to that [Gatekeeper], the evil spirit that lives in his bones!"

Only then did the big black dog relax a little, and its hair didn't blow up so much, but its limbs were still tense and lying on the ground - its instinct made it very sensitive to the existence of evil spirits.

Here, Beomi is still busy appeasing the big black dog, while the red-gloved captain over there puts his finger in his mouth and whistles, the armored evil spirit is under his command to explore the hidden [door ]went.

The armored evil spirit walked up to the small high platform of the altar, let out a silent roar, struck with the sword and shield in his hand, and a burst of intense spiritual light erupted.

Then, Beomi felt a creepy feeling, as if she was being targeted by a large beast standing higher in the food chain, and she shivered as if she was electrified.

About three meters above the high platform of the altar, there was a burst of ripples in the space, and a deep hollow emerged like a beast opening its mouth.

[Gap in the Underworld]!

A divine thought emerged in Beomi's mind, and he immediately knew something about this channel.

After the death of a living being, once the soul leaves the body, they will continue to be consumed by various energies in the real space, and the underworld will also open a small gap around him because it detects the death of a life As a channel, lead this soul to report to the underworld.

However, this gap does not have the ability to [enforce], it is just a temporary channel that passively emerges because it sensed the death of a life.

Generally, newly dead creatures cannot resist this kind of channel, because the soul also has a certain [instinct]. Continue to consume the energy of the soul itself.

In short, the real world will naturally reject the special existence of [soul], and a special kind of negative energy radiation will be emitted from the gap in the underworld.

Roughly analogy, it is an air-conditioned room that suddenly appears under the [-]-degree high-temperature sun, or a hut warmed by a fireplace in the cold wind.

The spirit body that had just died was in a daze, unable to resist this temptation at all, and would run into the gap in the underworld by itself, pass through the space barrier with gaps in this layer, and report to the underworld.

However, this kind of temporary space channel is not long-lasting, and usually only lasts for a few minutes, at most half an hour.

Normally, to open this kind of passage, there must be the death of a living being, but this armored evil spirit didn't know what method it used, so it just opened a temporary gap.

The armor evil spirit entered this temporary passage in a flash, and then there was no movement.

What's more, even this channel is slowly repairing itself, shrinking from a diameter of almost two meters, and it doesn't seem like it will be able to close completely in a short time.

After about three to five minutes, the gap shrank to the size of the mouth of the well. Just when Beomi thought that the armored evil spirit had lost his way there, a blade of a sword protruded from the hole, and with a slash, it Make that hole bigger again.

The armored evil spirit stepped out, but it was obvious that his spirit body looked thinner than before entering.

"My familiar didn't find the corresponding destination. This passage should be an excuse." The captain of the red gloves frowned: "Even the sacrificial soul needs to use the gap in the underworld, and the existence on the opposite side doesn't look special. Powerful!"

"Could it be those in the [Dark Side of the Universe]..." Hopkins said halfway, but quickly denied this judgment: "No! If we talk about demons and devils, there should be a lot of cosmic monsters here." The traces left by the corrosive energy of the dark side!"

"Unless the demon or devil on the opposite side can control the energy of the dark side of the entire universe!" The captain of the red gloves canceled the summon of the evil spirit in the armor, shaking his head and said: "But it is obviously impossible to happen, if it really appears, you can control it!" The powerful demon on the dark side of the entire universe, he has already ascended to the throne of God, how can he respond to this sacrifice ceremony of dozens of souls!"

"But the scene is too clean!" The captain of the red gloves said solemnly: "I will report this matter to Your Excellency the Goddess Sword!"

"That's fine!" Hopkins breathed a sigh of relief, "Then does this channel need to be sealed?"

"That's something you need to consider!" The red glove captain shook his head: "We will continue to track down the host of the ceremony and the existence pointed to by the altar. I will leave the finishing work to you!"

The red gloves of the four-person team came and went quickly. After confirming that the altar had lost its function and there was no danger for the time being, they left.

Hopkins also began to direct the night guards at the scene, and separated three or five people to start dismantling the altar, and gathered a few night guards with spellcasting ability to seal the passage created by the large number of dead people and sacrifice ceremonies.

The rest of the night bearers began to evacuate the scene in batches. After the professionals smashed the cornerstone of the altar and cleaned up the ritual residues on the altar, it was almost morning.

Beomi and the scar-faced old man Jurgen, as members of the Sweeper Organization, started to make trouble looking at the corpses on the ground.

"I will leave three people to guard the scene, you two go back, remember to bring your people over to deal with these corpses tomorrow morning!"
