In what age, are you still a traditional witcher?

Chapter 88 Altar, Skyfire!
Compared with the first floor of the temple, the space on the second floor is much smaller.

The entire second floor presents a semicircular arch structure, and everything around it is the dome and the side walls.

The side walls of the dome are covered with fragments of murals, and there are many carved outlines with unclear boundaries.

Ryan's eyes did not cast on these murals and sculptures.

He knew that the church would definitely record these "surface" traces.

nothing special.

Look away.

Ryan looked towards the center of the ground, where the dome was directly below.

"altar?"

The circular stone altar seems to occupy the center of the entire temple. Around it, there are layers of circular steps that gradually rise from the outside to the inside.

Make the altar in the shape of a crater, protruding from the ground.

"In the materials left by the church, the description of this altar is just a cursory description."

Ryan stepped on the stairs and walked up quickly, listening to Kate's voice in his ear, he was a little surprised.

Regardless of any civilization, the "altar" is an extremely important symbol.

To a large extent, it symbolizes human admiration for gods.And through certain rituals, means of "communicating" with the gods.

The church didn't find any clues on the altar?
Think so.

Ryan moved to the altar.

The circular stone wall is deeply sunken, and below it is just a "basin" about [-] centimeters deep, empty.

Ryan understood instantly.

"It's no wonder that the church has mentioned it a few times. There is almost nothing in this altar except for a pattern that looks like a sun."

As for the so-called resemblance to the sun.

As long as they are the aborigines on the American continent, they all respect the belief in the sun.

This.
A little monotonous.

However, when Ryan set his eyes on the center of the altar, something in his heart seemed to be faintly touched.

The source of the strange feeling that attracted him.

seem
Is it this altar?
No.

It is definitely not a real thing like an altar, but a more illusory symbol.

"In the records, is there anything that the church has tried to do?"

"For example, blood sacrifice?"

Ryan asked Kate.

"Have."

Kate responded: "But it's not a simple and crude blood sacrifice, but a set of sacrifices that were summed up after several professors conducted joint restoration research on those murals."

"Oh?" Ryan had a strange expression.

"Did you make it?"

"No."

Kate responded: "In the end, it's a blood sacrifice."

"Did you make it?"

"No."

Heck!

Emotions have failed.

Ryan looked like he couldn't complain.

"To sum up the reasons for the failure, the professors speculated the following three possibilities."

"1: This altar has only a symbolic meaning, and cannot really communicate with some noble beings."

Kate explained: "2: There is a problem with the ritual they have explored."

"3: Blood."

"Which possibility do the professors favor?" Lane asked.

"There are three propositions, but the ones with the most support are the first and the third."

Hearing this, Ryan narrowed his eyes.

The first possibility is that the altar itself only plays a symbolic role.

"impossible."

Lane was the first to rule it out.

If it only has a symbolic meaning, then what is this strange attraction that calls people?

Obviously, this altar is definitely tainted with "mystery".

In that case
"Blood?"

Ryan rubbed his chin and asked curiously, "What kind of blood did the professors use?"

"Humans and non-humans."

"Even the blood of the [Tulalip] clan who has lived on this land for a long time is not absent."

"After so many attempts, there is no response."

Ryan pondered: "Could it be that the blood of the ancient people must be required to be effective?"

"It's very possible." Kate adjusted her glasses and said, "But all the members of this clan have died. Even if there are descendants, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Hearing this, Ryan grinned.

He suddenly had a bold idea.

"Suppose, this altar is a portal to open something."

"Blood is the key."

"Only the blood of this group can [unlock]."

Ryan stretched out his left hand, and the metal armguard on his right arm changed in an instant!
"Tell me, is there a kind of domineering blood that might force the door to be opened?"

"."

"Sir. Good luck."

Kate was silent for a moment, then said quietly.

"Thank you."

Ryan smiled, and the long knife transformed into a prosthetic limb cut the skin of his left palm.

"Zi!"

Bright red blood flowed from his palm.

Then—

"Clap!"

Drops fell into the altar.

moment!

"Kakkaka!"

"Crack!"

The eerie sound of rock cracking resounded in the silent night.

Ryan looked down coldly.

His blood fell into the middle of the altar, and the blood beads that should have been splashed showed a state of "happy to hear and see".

That is: the blood fills the notch of [Sun].

Ryan just smiled nastyly at this.

Because, not only did his blood fill up the notches of the [Sun], but it also seemed to burst the sun, causing the entire altar to make weird cracking sounds.

"If we say that the blood of the ancient race can open the lock perfectly."

"Then my blood is undoubtedly the hammer and steel nails, smashing the door and picking the lock."

next moment.

"Crack!"

The huge altar suddenly cracked.

Suddenly, Ryan felt a very strange feeling in his heart.

He stared at the altar.

It seems that under the altar, something pierced the space
Do not!
wrong!

It is deeper!

It is in an unknown deep underground abyss, and something is rapidly exploring!
Ryan's expression changed in an instant.

What is it?
Appears to be a hollow tube.

Ground?Tube?

"It's a passage!"

"The real passage to the ruins!"

Ryan's thoughts just fell.

Under his feet, a glaring white light suddenly rose, and the white light appeared as a standing column, which quickly shrank from the outermost layer of the steps around the altar to the inside of the altar.

The white light is hollow inside, which is the so-called [pipe]!
Enclose Ryan, together with the crazy black cat!
"call out!"

next second.

The scorching white light suddenly dissipated.

There is no one left on the ancient ruins.

Only the altar is still slowly cracking.

"Sir? Sir?!"

Kate called into the microphone.

However, the communication terminal seemed to be out of range, and only bursts of noise could be heard from the earphones.

In this regard, she could only smile wryly.

There is no doubt that her chief went to the real [Ruins].

That is a mysterious realm that does not belong to the human world. It is obviously normal to be able to block the signal of alchemy equipment.

"Don't let anything happen"

Kate shook her head helplessly.

She was about to stand up.

However, at this moment, a piercing siren suddenly erupted in her ears.

"Damn!"

She widened her eyes and rushed out of the door.

Demon hunting mechanism, central control room.

The eyes of everyone present were staring at the screen.

Beads of sweat rolled down his face, and his extremely pale face expressed his incomprehension.

Even Minister Li Lisi had an expression of disbelief.

"alarm!"

"alarm!"

It's night, but the night sky in Seattle is full of stars!

In the silent night sky, there was a sharp whistling sound.

Dazzling orange lights tore through the sky and pierced the night sky.

It is Tianhuo.

A bunch of gorgeous sky fires are about to land in Seattle!
