Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 193 The Ruins

Chapter 193 The Ruins
Half an hour later, the team came to the depths of the underground ruins.

Ahead is the ruins of Essos. The once ancient and glorious kingdom now has only a broken wall. Among the many relic buildings, there are low stone houses belonging to the common people, and there are also two-story stone buildings representing the city hall.

The Kingdom of Essos respects black, so most of the buildings in the ruins are dominated by black, and some giant spider reliefs are engraved on the walls of some large buildings.

According to legend, the body of the Evernight Goddess is a giant spider.

She was born on the land of the Kingdom of Essos, and under the belief of countless subjects, she ignited the divine fire, thus becoming the guardian of Essos, and thus transformed into a half-human, half-spider god form.

"Is this the remains of the Kingdom of Essos?"

Lafite looked around and came to a collapsed wall. He stroked the spider relief on it with his hands. The relief, which had been accumulated over the years, was already somewhat worn and mottled. As soon as it was touched, it turned into small pieces of gravel and fell down. .

"There's blood there." Eve suddenly whispered.

Following the direction of her finger, Isaac saw some brown blood stains on a rock. Although it had dried up, judging from the extent, the time left should not exceed a week.

"It seems that the fallen man is indeed hiding around here."

Isaac stroked the dried blood with his hands, a slight smile appeared on his face, then he stood up, followed the remaining blood around him, and led everyone deeper into the ruins.

Not long after, following the blood trail, the team came to a temple.

This is already the center of this relic city. Compared with the surrounding buildings, the temple in front of me is more complete. Although the appearance is a bit old due to the erosion of the years, it can vaguely feel a sense of grandeur and solemnity.

"It is said that in the first era, all ancient humans believed in gods."

Looking at the temple in front of him, Isaac sighed, "In order to win the favor of the gods, even if they have no clothes and no food, they will still build temples and dedicate everything to the gods."

"It's ridiculous to beg for mercy from others instead of pursuing one's own strength!" Lafite curled his lips in disdain.

The times have changed, the sea has changed, and the days of gods have long gone. With the concept of the wizarding world today, it is difficult to understand the thoughts of ancient humans. In the eyes of wizards, the pursuit of truth and their own strength is the eternal truth. As for ancient human beliefs It is undoubtedly a stupid act to pray for the mercy of the gods by priests and other means.

"Let's go in." Caroline shook her head and was about to step into the temple.

"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Enzo suddenly stopped her, looked at the ground in front of the temple, and said in a deep voice, "Be careful, there is a rune trap set up there."

Caroline was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back.

"I'll handle it." Isaac took a step forward, raised his arm slightly, gathered a ball of lightning in his palm, and then swung it towards the ground. As the ball of thunder exploded, the rune trap was also triggered.

"It's all right now, let's go."

After solving the rune trap, the team walked towards the temple. This magnificent building has hundreds of steps, all carved out of giant rocks.

It is hard to imagine how much it would cost to build such a temple with the power of the ancients.

Several people walked through hundreds of stone steps and came to the entrance of the temple. Two metal doors made of bronze were open. They walked in and found that the inside of the temple was pitch black.

The scene inside the temple came into view.

The first is a huge statue, with the upper body of a goddess and the lower body of a spider. After countless years of baptism, the statue of the Goddess of the Night in the temple has already shown cracks, and it seems that it will break if hit hard.

In addition to the huge statue enshrined in the center, there are four columns in the temple supporting the top.

Apart from these, there are only mottled walls around, carved with various reliefs, some of which are written in Essos, which seem to sing the glory of the Evernight Goddess to the world.

"Come out, don't hide anymore." Isaac looked around and said suddenly.

Although the temple was silent, the rune trap outside and the faint smell of blood around proved that there was indeed a wounded fallen man hidden here.

After a while, there was still a dead silence around.

"Hum!" Isaac snorted coldly, and suddenly he swung his hands, and the strong magic wave spread from his body, spreading to every corner of the temple in an instant.

"Ahem!" With a painful cough, a figure appeared beside a stone pillar.

It was a female apprentice, wearing a gray robe, her face was very pale due to excessive blood loss, she was leaning against the stone pillar weakly, and there was a hideous wound on her left leg, which seemed to have deteriorated and exuded a bloody smell .

The last disguise is torn, and the apprentice Pamela is completely desperate.

"It's another third-level apprentice. It seems that we are really lucky!" Caroline smiled, but a cold killing intent flashed in her eyes, and she walked slowly towards Pamela.

The magic turned into a lightning blade, and Caroline raised her palm.

"No! Wait a minute!" Seeing Caroline walking towards her, Pamela screamed hysterically with unconcealable fear in her eyes, "Don't kill me! I'm willing to trade a secret for my life!"

"Secret? I'm not interested!" Caroline was unmoved, and slashed with a thunder blade.

"Wait a minute, Caroline." At this moment, Enzo suddenly said.

Caroline's movements stopped in vain, and the lightning blade in her hand was fixed on Pamela's neck, and she could cut her throat an inch further forward. She looked at Enzo in some surprise, and then dissipated her magic power.

On the opposite side, Pamela, who survived the catastrophe, seemed to be fished out of the water. The clothes on her body were completely soaked in cold sweat. Her eyes were motionless, and her pupils were almost constricted to the extreme.

"Let's hear what her secret is first." Enzo said quietly.

According to the chip scan just now, the female apprentice did not lie, she was indeed hiding a secret, although she didn't know what it was about, but Enzo still planned to find out.

"If I tell the secret, will you let me go?" Pamela swallowed and asked hesitantly.

Snapped!
With a slap in the face, Caroline said with a smile, "I'm sorry, but you are not qualified to bargain with us. If you don't want to say it, I can kill you right now."

"I know." After being slapped, Pamela lowered her head to hide the humiliation on her face.

"The secret I want to tell is related to Lord Justin the fraudster, the leader of Fallen Night City." Pamela took a deep breath, organized her words in her mind, and said, "It is rumored that he died at the hands of the wizards of Thunder City. It is suspected that this news is false!"

 Brothers, please give me a recommendation ticket, or a monthly ticket, it would be even better, thank you very much!
