Chapter 112 Unexpected situation
Inside the altar.

Rather than calling it an altar, this place is actually more like an old small temple. The interior of the altar is almost covered by dark stone walls and dark stone pillars. Only the faint light hanging from a high place can barely let Ryan see the interior clearly. scene.

"Follow me closely, otherwise I won't be able to save you in time." Harvey's low voice came from the front.

It really looks like it. Ryan couldn't help complaining in his heart.

A dark priest pretended to be his third-tier teammate, and tried to gain his trust in various ways, in order to trick him into the altar.

Originally, Ryan thought that after entering the altar, Harvey would tear his face and attack him directly, or use some other method to reveal his purpose.

But I didn't expect that this guy was still acting after entering the altar.

This made Ryan very curious, what is the purpose of fake Harvey doing this?
The two walked carefully inside the altar, and occasionally "Harvey" would lead the wrong way, causing them to encounter some innocuous dangers.

If Ryan didn't know his identity, I'm afraid he would really believe that this is the real Harvey.

"Huh?" Ryan's eyes moved, and he suddenly looked at the dark stone wall beside him, on which there seemed to be some indistinct red graffiti.

"There are murals here?" Ryan looked at the wall curiously, wanting to see what was painted on it.

But when he stared intently, the murals seemed to be faintly visible again, and the specific content could not be seen clearly at all. Only when he didn't look at it specially, could he roughly see the content of the murals from the corner of his eyes.

"These ... seem to be some of the murals that are missing in the cave." Ryan was a little uncertain, as the murals in the corner of his eye were too blurry.

While writing down the contents of the mural, Ryan carefully looked at "Harvey" who was only a few steps away from him.

After a while, the two came to a stone gate deep in the altar.

There is a huge mottled stone pillar on both sides of the stone gate, which seems to be one of the important pillars of the whole altar, and a small sunken platform protrudes below the stone pillar.

Standing in front of the stone gate, Ryan could vaguely feel a mysterious power. This power made him somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recognize what it was.

"This should be the place where the altar temple received the inheritance." Harvey looked a little serious.

"You mean the pool of inheritance?" Ryan was taken aback. What did this fake Harvey bring him here for? Could it be that he was going to accept the inheritance?
"The Church of Calamity is different from the Church of Dawn." Harvey shook his head and said in a low voice: "In ancient times, the Church of Calamity was inclusive of all races, including almost all races."

"As the inheritance place of the Church of Calamity, it may contain the inheritance of many races and paths, and the number and types are definitely far better than the Tower of Glory."

"If the inheritance inside can be taken out, the value is so high that it cannot be calculated at all. After all, many inheritances have been lost by now."

For the current era, there is almost no information left in the era when the ruins were built.

What Harvey said also makes sense. If it really contains many different types of inheritance, even if they cannot accept the inheritance, the value of these inheritances alone is an unimaginably huge contribution value.

"The magic circle in the place of inheritance is the most perfect place to maintain the whole ruins." Ryan frowned and said, "If you can't get in, no matter how rich the inheritance inside is, it doesn't matter to us."

Just like the Inheritance Pool of the Tower of Glory, only those who have exchanged for the inheritance qualification can reach the corresponding floor. If they do not have the qualification, they will not even have the chance to reach the door.

No matter how inclusive the Calamity Church is, it is impossible for people to accept the inheritance casually, right?
You must know that every time you accept inheritance, there will be a certain amount of loss, so there will be water in the pool of inheritance that contains huge energy to support the operation.

Otherwise, the Dawn Church wouldn't be so hard-pressed, and even promotion and inheritance would require contribution points to redeem.

"Did you see that small platform?" Harvey pointed to the protruding platform beside the stone pillar and smiled mysteriously, then he took out a round token from his pocket.

"This is...?" Ryan was taken aback.

"This is the token we found in the priest's building." Harvey said as he walked to the stone pillar and put the token on the platform.

"buzz"

The stone door made a buzzing sound, and the mechanism that had never been opened for thousands of years began to rotate. Ryan even vaguely heard the clicking sound of gears meshing and rotating.

After a while, the heavy stone door slowly opened towards both sides under the drag of chains and gears, and a translucent light curtain slowly opened in front of the two of them.

The combination of gears and magic Ryan looked at the stone gate with some novelty, this was the first time he had seen this combination.

Harvey nodded towards Ryan, walked into the light curtain without hesitation, and disappeared in Ryan's eyes.

Ryan was a little hesitant. This is undoubtedly the best preserved place in the entire ruins. Not only the formations can still function normally, but even the mechanisms that have not been used for thousands of years can still function normally.

Although he is wearing a pendant, it is also dangerous to enter such a place.

And until now, he didn't know what the fake Harvey's purpose was to trick him into coming here.

"Forget it, it's better not to take risks." Ryan shook his head.

Although the inheritance in it is indeed very attractive to him, but in the face of this unknown and terrifying danger, it is better not to take risks personally. No matter how weak the seventh-level boss is, it is definitely easy to handle him.

It's a pity that the mirror image is not here, otherwise he could let the mirror image in to accept the inheritance for him.

He had tested the fake Harvey before, and this guy didn't seem to have directly obtained his memory, but imitated and learned the real Harvey in a way he didn't know.

This shows that other members of the third team must have also entered the ruins.

But Ryan came all the way in but never found any other team members, not even a trace of someone coming, which is very strange.

While thoughts flashed in his mind, Ryan turned around and walked outside the altar without hesitation.

Before taking a few steps, Harvey's disappearing figure reappeared in front of the light curtain.

"I found a lot of inheritances that have disappeared from the outside world."

There was joy on Harvey's face, and he seemed to be planning to say something. When he saw Ryan's back turned to him, he said in surprise: "Don't you come in and take a look, there are a lot of inherited powers that have not been lost, which can be completely absorbed .”

"No, I'll look elsewhere." Ryan turned around and shook his head.

Just when Harvey was about to continue to say something, Ryan turned decisively and walked out of the corridor.

"boom!"

A huge stone door suddenly fell from the other side of the corridor, stopping him from leaving.

Ryan was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Harvey and asked calmly, "What is your purpose?"

"My purpose?" Harvey was taken aback, frowning and trying to explain.

"Stop pretending, I know you're not Harvey." Ryan narrowed his eyes, and the two chains slowly extended from his hands, wrapping around his body.

"Where did you hide the real Harvey?"

There was a brief silence in front of the stone gate, and neither of them spoke again. "Harvey" scanned Ryan from top to bottom with weird eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, "Harvey" sighed and said, "I didn't expect that I can't even fool a third-level kid now."

Before Ryan could answer, he looked at Ryan again and smiled, "Want to know where your teammates are? I'll tell you when I come in."

"By the way, I think I need to remind you."

"These two stone gates were also called the gates of isolation before, and they can trap any existence below the seventh rank to death; although they have lost a lot of spirituality now, there is still no problem in isolating the little ones below the fifth rank."

After hearing this, Ryan hesitated for a moment.

"Harvey" isn't exactly lying, it's just missing something.

The premise that this stone gate can indeed trap people below the fifth level is that the trapped people don't know the flaws of the stone gate.

After thousands of years of erosion, coupled with the fact that there has been no one to maintain it, the interior of this seemingly problem-free stone gate has long been full of loopholes.

If he attacks these weak points with the sword of justice, there is a certain probability that he can break through the stone door, but "Harvey" will definitely not watch him do it, and will definitely find a way to stop him.

In addition, the whereabouts of everyone in the third team is unknown, and it is very likely that they have been trapped by this guy.

After various considerations, Ryan did not choose to act rashly, but frowned at "Harvey" and said, "Tell me first, what is your purpose?"

"Harvey" clicked his tongue, did not answer the question, shook his head and walked into the light curtain again, leaving Ryan alone in the two stone gates.

"A friendly reminder to you, if you are trapped in Shimen for too long, you will suffocate to death."

Harvey's voice came from the other side of the light curtain.

Ryan narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced casually at the pendant on his chest, and then walked towards the light curtain.

With His Excellency Chrisman around, protecting his safety should not be a problem. Although the fake Harvey is essentially a seventh-order existence, it is just a remnant soul after all.

And the opponent didn't choose to do anything until his identity was revealed, which shows that the strength that fake Harvey can use should not be much stronger.

While silently raising his vigilance, Ryan finally encountered the light curtain.

He only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and when he came back to his senses, he had already changed the environment.

Looking around, the structure here is quite similar to the Inheritance Pool of the Tower of Radiance. There is also a huge mottled stone pillar in the center to support the entire building, but there is no high concentration of holy light pool water here. Hundreds of light clusters floated in the air.

Ryan's eyes flickered, these light clusters should be the inheritance left by the Calamity Church.

"Cough cough."

An old cough came.

Ryan suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the sound, and a white-haired old man appeared behind him at some point.

The old man's eye sockets were sunken, his face was covered with deep and clear folds, and the folds were also covered with lifeless black spots, and his thin white hair lay powerlessly on his scalp.

"This is." Ryan's pupils shrank. The old guy had no body, and an old head was floating in the air alone.

No, not without a body.

Ryan took a closer look, and there was a blurry to almost transparent body under the old man's head. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.

Obviously, this was the dark priest who had been pretending to be Harvey before.

"I'm already in."

"Where did you take the real Harvey?"

The two chains slowly floated beside him, Ryan tensed his nerves, and fixed his eyes on the figure not far away. Once the situation was wrong, he would immediately trigger the mirror image in the pendant.

"Cough cough." The old man kept coughing, as if he wanted to cough up his internal organs, but unfortunately he doesn't have any internal organs now, so he can't cough up anything.

"We've all come here, and you're still thinking about your teammates." An ugly smile appeared on the old man's wrinkled face.

"Since you want to know so much, then I will satisfy your wish."

As the voice fell, there was a "click" sound of gears turning, and several chains slowly protruded from the roof more than five meters high, and each chain was impressively tied to a member of the third team.

These chains are different from the chains that imprison the shackles. They are more like tentacles, and there are needle-like things at the end of the tentacles, which are deeply inserted into the bodies of each team member.

Looking at the few people who fell into a coma and did not know whether they were alive or dead, Ryan couldn't help being shocked.

"Your team's talents are not bad."

"Especially you and that little guy named Harvey, even if they were placed in the Calamity Church back then, they are qualified to be raised as holy sons." The dark priest glanced at Harvey in the middle of several chains.

"I had already planned to use his body, but I didn't expect you to be ten years younger than him." The dark priest had an ugly smile on his old face, looked at Ryan and said with a smile:

"The longer people live, the more they yearn for a long life. You should be thankful that you are the youngest, otherwise you will end up in the same miserable end as them."

Use my body?Take home?

Ryan's pupils shrank, so this is the real purpose of the other party?But why didn't he do it from the outside world, but insisted on letting himself in here?
"Wait." Ryan couldn't help but wondered; "When did you catch them? Didn't we come in together?"

The dark priest froze for a moment. He didn't expect Ryan to remain calm at this time, and even ask such insignificant questions.

"Did you not understand your current situation." The dark priest's face returned to calm: "I have no obligation to answer your question."

"Okay, I can't help it anymore, I don't want to waste any more time."

"Don't worry, I will definitely let the name of Ryan Dylan resound across the mainland, so you can rest assured to integrate with me,"

As soon as the voice fell, the aura on the dark priest's body suddenly soared, and it soared to the fourth level in an instant. After a short stay, it barely reached the level of breaking through the fifth level.

And his almost transparent body completely disappeared at this moment, and the ugly and black-spotted head began to melt and change shape, turning into a magic circle exuding an evil aura condensed on the ground.

"Snapped!"

A pitch-black claw protruded from the circle.
