Doomsday Harvest of Cthulhu

Chapter 25 Silver Twilight Esoteric Cult
"Silver Twilight?" Ren Xingzhi asked in a low voice. Ren Xingzhi had discussed this word during the meeting between Professor Armitage and Wilmas, but he didn't know much about the specifics.

Allen continued: "The Silver Twilight Conclave was established by witches hundreds of years ago. Up to now, their influence is extremely huge, and their strength should not be underestimated. However, I heard that there are also internal differences due to different factions."

Ren Xingzhi continued to ask: "Who is that gatekeeper?"

Allen explained: "There is a strict hierarchy in Silver Twilight. Except for ordinary members, judging from their costumes, those two should be the guardians of the Silver Twilight Gate, also called gatekeepers."

Wimpson asked behind Allen: "What about going up?"

"There is also the Trial Knight of the Silver Twilight, and..." Allen paused: "The King of the Silver Twilight."

Wimpson curled his lips: "Listening to the name is very strong."

Allen said embarrassingly: "It's not just strong, the old man in our family said that the silver twilight king has been gifted by God, and he has broken away from the human category. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the spokesperson of the gods." .”

Wimpson asked: "Then what is the strength of this gatekeeper?"

Allen shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it should be a powerful wizard."

After that, everyone did not continue to talk, and walked forward quietly.

Ren Xingzhi led the way ahead, thinking in his heart as he walked: How did the members of the Silver Twilight Esoteric Cult and the Dagon Esoteric Cult get involved?There are still members of the Black Pharaoh Brotherhood in the city, and the situation is getting more and more complicated.There are more and more forces involved.Perhaps, the last time the world was destroyed in 1931, there have been signs from this time.

Da da da, just as Ren Xingzhi was thinking, there was a group of footsteps in front of him. From the torches on the wall, it could be seen that they were two tall deep divers whose waists were made of unknown animal bones. The bone knife looks like it should be the Deep Diver Guard.Two more humans in black robes followed behind.

Just as the two teams passed by, the deep diver took out his bone knife and slashed at Ren Xingzhi to stop him, then stared at Ren Xingzhi with his pale protruding eyes, and said: "sdia , jurlik."

It sounded like Lalaiye language. At this time, Ren Xingzhi had already touched the long knife on his waist and was ready to strike first, and the five people behind him also clenched their shotguns and waited for Ren Xingzhi's action.

With a puff, the two men in black robes behind them took out a slender saber at the same time, and stabbed the second deep diver's body from behind. Piercing into the body, the deep diver fell silently and lost his vitality.

The leading deep diver noticed the movement behind him, and swung the bone knife straight back. The two of them squatted down at the same time and dexterously avoided the blow. Ren Xingzhi also seized the opportunity to draw out the long knife, and slashed at the deep diver's waist. However, the scales are too hard, leaving only a string of sparks.

Wipson and Allen in the team were about to shoot when they heard a crisp female voice from under one of the black robes: "Don't shoot."

Wepson and Allen felt a little familiar when they heard the voice, they should be old friends, so they put the gun away.

While the woman was speaking, she jumped forward together with another man in black robe, and pinched the deep diver from left to right. Not only did they escape the deep diver's bone knife, their swords were still on the deep diver's body Leaving bloodstains one after another, the tacit cooperation between the two seems to be dancing a waltz with the theme of death on the tip of the knife.

Everyone admired the aesthetics of violence, and finally the woman pierced the deep diver's throat with a sword to end the performance.

The two men in black wiped the blood from the sword and put it back into the scabbard. Ren Xingzhi clearly saw the pattern on the sword, which was the trace left by the magic of the sword. No wonder the sword can easily cut through the deep Diver's defense.

Ren Xingzhi and Alan Wepson walked up to the two men in black robes. The two men in black robes took off their wide hoods at the same time, revealing their true faces. The two men looked exactly like Ren Xingzhi. Waiting for people is about the same age.

The woman had long golden hair, and her green pupils revealed a unique aura.The other man in black robe has a resolute face with sharp edges and corners, with a heroic look in his eyes, but there is a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Wipson and Alan walked up to hug the two, and said excitedly: "Long time no see, Zoe! Britt!"

Scott and Father Lynn were walking in the dark passage. Scott looked at his watch and muttered, "It's been 10 minutes. How long is this passage?" In the meandering passage, I touched the wall with a flashlight and explored, and chose the left side of the three forks in the road.

Until there is an exit ahead, this is a protruding platform on the wall, its area can stand seven or eight people, there is a series of hanging ladders on the left to reach the bottom, below is a large pool, in front of the pool there is a three-door High door.

After discussing with Father Lynn, Scott and Father Lynn decided to go down to investigate, maybe behind the door is the place where the statue is stored.

The two climbed down the hanging ladder smoothly. Although the ladder shook violently, fortunately, it was firmly fixed.The two held up their flashlights to illuminate the space, and there was no other entrance except the passage they came from.

There was nothing abnormal in the pool, about the size of a 50-meter swimming pool, and there were no living things in the pool.Scott said: "It seems that there is nothing here, why don't you go behind the door and have a look?"

Father Lynn agreed, and just as the two were about to push the door open, a gigantic figure appeared from the pool behind, splashing water even on Scott's face.

Scott was quite frightened by the sudden rise, and he didn't dare to use the flashlight to check the appearance of the creature. He could only see from the outline that the creature had a high dorsal fin, a thick tail, and a pair of dark green eyes. After casting a glance at Scott, he closed it slowly, his whole body buried in the water, motionless.Only the tail swept across the water from time to time, making some waves.

Seeing that the creature was not moving, Father Lynn pulled Ruscott's clothes and said, "Let's go first while the monster is not moving."

Scott came back to his senses, shuddered and said: Ah, ah, okay, let's go first. "

The two quickly opened the door, stepped in, and then closed the door.

This is also a passage, but there are oil lamps hanging on the wall every two meters on both sides of this passage. The passage is also higher and wider than when it was first entered. There is no dust inside the passage. There are traces of people Come clean often.

As the two walked forward, they saw a wall blocking the entire passage, and there was an iron door in the middle of the wall. Scott took a deep breath and slowly pushed the iron door open.

Open the door, and there is a rectangular space inside, with a bed on the left side and a bedside table next to the bed with a lighted oil lamp on it.On the right side, there is a bathroom, and there is a door on the wall directly opposite, and there is a table in the center of the room, with a stack of books neatly stacked on it, and a new stack of parchment on the table.

Scott looked at the house with a flashlight, and murmured: "There is still such a place in this broken place, it seems to be the place where some big man lives."

"The room is small, but it has everything it should have." Father Lynn touched the corners of the table and bed and said, "And the environment is also very clean. I guess there must be someone cleaning it."

Scott walked to the desk, began to check the types of these books, and said, "Then start investigating from here."
