Chapter 409 Wet Chapel

In fact, wind does not mean anything, after all, there is mysticism in this The world, maybe the fish people are using Mystic Art to create sea breeze to set off the ceremony atmosphere.

Because he knew that there must be a lot of murlocs and ring warlocks behind the hole in the wall, Shade didn't even dare to stretch his head to look behind, but cautiously leaned against the wall, trying to hear the sound behind.

It's only been a long time, and there are only whispers that keep coming. He barely discerned that it was the voice of praying to Evil God [Lord of the Scarlet Spiral], the voices were mixed together, and at least ten people were praying at different speeds at the same time.

Unfortunately, the invisible [Bordeaux Candle] was consumed in the last action. Shade, who didn't dare to look up easily, thought of using Mystic Art [Echoes of the Past] to listen.

There is no one in the wine cellar all the year round, and the only people who speak here within 48 hours are probably the people of the Scarlet Esoteric Cult.

Mystic Art really succeeded, but what Shade heard about the conversations of the cultists, just scolded the righteous god church for being so despicable, and installed a ring warlock squad in the banquet in advance, and discussed with each other After returning the ceremony to the sea, the fish people occupy the beautiful life of the underwater city of Lengshuigang.

The two people who spoke even had an in-depth discussion on how the seaweed speciality meal is made.

Shade listened patiently, and finally heard a different voice:

"Official priest, those two humans are here."

The one who spoke Guy, there was a purring sound in his throat from time to time, obviously a murloc.

Then came the sound of footsteps, and the two met at the hole in the wall, where Shade was standing now.

"Good evening, friends of the Scarlet Esotericism."

The voice was familiar.

"Humans, don't be so polite, can our transaction continue?"

This should be the priest who presides over the ceremony of the Crimson Esoteric Cult here.

"Of course, the church's sudden pursuit leaves us with nowhere to hide. We can only find a way to leave Coldwater Harbor as soon as possible."

This is the companion with a somewhat familiar voice:

"I originally wanted to coerce Ms. Avrolla and get us a boat to the new continent, didn't expect there was a warlock of the Orthodox Church beside her. The transaction is still valid, [Blood Spirit School] 】Provide you with the technology to nourish the flesh and blood of murlocs, you help us leave the Cold Water Harbor, and provide the poet-level relic that allows intelligent creatures to master human language [fish training ring]."

entire group After entering the hole.

Shade understood, that somewhat familiar voice turned out to be Darkness.

"The chosen person is actually mixed with the fish people"

Generally speaking, there is a high probability that the chosen person will be in trouble, and the first chosen person will be in trouble. , that is, Iluna, when she met the cultists, it directly led to the Evil God descending on Tobesque.

Although what happened in Coldwater Harbor, the worst outcome was that the city was submerged by the tsunami, Shade was still a little uneasy when he thought that the chosen one was here.

"Go back now and find Miss Avrora to come down, and it will take at least 20 minutes. And now there is not much time until the sunrise, there is no need to inform the Demones, otherwise I will not be at all. It's too late to get the information about the murlocs. So, let me see what they are going to do."

I was still thinking about how I could safely enter the broken wall behind the wall. When the hole, didn't expect footsteps came again. But this time it was not the voice of the past, but the voice of the present, someone was walking out from the inside of the hole.

Shade hurried to hide by the shelf where the barrels were placed, and saw a man in a gray robe and a hood come out.

The reason why he was able to tell that it was a man was because the other party looked left and right, and it was convenient to stand by the wall.

Shade imagined Ms. Avrora, knowing the look on the face of a man peeing in her wine cellar, then took off the ring on her hand and silently controlled the mist of silver towards the man float away.

Wait until the mist completely enveloped him, Shade glanced around furtively, then walked in with his sword in both hands, bent over and tiptoed.

About ten seconds later, Shade, with a little blood on his body, wore a man's robe to disperse the silver mist around him.

The corpse at the foot, the face shows the appearance of an incomplete murloc, which means that it has a low status in the Scarlet Esotericism.

Enduring nausea, Shade smeared the slippery mucus on his face. Afterwards, he smeared the mucus on his clothes without worrying, and then tried his best to fold the corpse and use the canvas on the shelf to turn it into a toy and stuff it into his pocket.

After doing all this, he slightly stood on tiptoe to make himself look as tall as the man just now, put on his hood, and walked behind the hole with his head lowered.

It was very dry in the wine cellar, but as soon as his body entered the back of the hole, the humid air caused Shade's breathing rate to change.

He had never been to such a humid place, the moisture in the air seemed to condense into droplets of water falling to the ground in the next second. Only in a real body of water can it be more humid than this, and Shade can't think of how this kind of humidity occurs in nature.

Hiding his head under the hood, Shade walked briskly forward with his head down. The destination is very clear, because many people who wear the same clothes as him are sitting in front.

In front of you is a space made of light grey damp masonry with disgusting moss on the walls. The area is not large, about two-thirds of the entire floor of Shade's house.

Underfoot is a layer of black water, and the room is illuminated with glowing moss on the walls, candles, and glowing beads densely packed in the high dome. The accumulated water is a bumpy ground, and there are long rows of stone seats on the ground. At intervals, a small square hole is pulled out in the wall, and I don’t know what it is for. .

The light gray stone wall and the dome above have some vague patterns, carefully looking towards the surroundings, Shade is very sure that this should be some kind of chapel.

Combining with the conversation of the professors overheard a few hours ago, behind the hole in the wall, it should be the meeting place of the Secret Sect sect established by the fish people before the Avrolla family bought the manor.

Understanding this, Shade stopped looking around, stepped forward, and joined the dozen or so people in gray robes who took their seats in front of the damp chapel. He chose to sit behind everyone and did not move forward to see more.

These gray robes are also very interesting, with no pattern on the surface, but the hem of the robe looks like it has been torn. The robes that everyone wears here are like this, which should be the peculiar clothing decoration style of the fish people.

Shade finally got a chance to see the front of the Wet Chapel when he sat down. There is no Divine Idol there, only a sacred symbol that seems to be bone, the sacred symbol takes on a spiral shape, and in the center of the spiral is the symbol of a fish-headed human being.

In front of the holy emblem, three equally fat old people with books and severely alienated faces are praying to Evil God [Lord of the Scarlet Spiral] in the way of Whisper.

Shade thought there were dozens of people in Whisper outside, didn't expect only three.

The book they were holding was "The Mystery of the Sea" that Shade had seen in Mr. Jude's safe. It's just that the three books that appeared this time are all made of leather materials, and they seem to know that they record the evil knowledge of the cult.

Looking aside.
“en?”

Shade immediately lowered his head, because the person in front of him suddenly turned his head, and then looked at his companion behind him suspiciously. Under the hood was the murloc's face, and after a few seconds of staring at Shade, it twitched its nose and sniffed, then turned around and said nothing.

In addition to those disgusting mucus, Shade's smell of [drowned murloc scales] also made the cultists regard him as a companion. In this way, the scales, while exposing Shade to Demonness, helped him in the damp chapel, so it was not useless to borrow it from Dorothy on purpose.

Shade continued to observe carefully. The three fat murlocs holding books stood at a higher position, so there was no water under their feet, and the traces of concentric semicircles could be seen spreading outward with the middle murloc as the center. Black's ink left a Blasphemy rune in the shape of a seahorse on the ground. Shade tried to interpret it and found that it was not only a tribute to Evil God, but also a tribute to the ocean and death.

All he could see was part of the ceremony, and there are more traces of ceremony in this little church.

"However, if there is any book that records the knowledge of murlocs, it is "The Mystery of the Ocean". Mr. Jude's is not necessarily the complete volume, but the one here must be the complete volume."

It was not Shade's fault that he didn't take Mr. Jude's book with him last time, because Mr. Jude's book must not contain complete information on the return of the sea. Later, after the church annihilated the murlocs in the old street, it did not find a way to crack the ceremony, which proved this.

The eyes continued to look all around. There were only three murlocs standing in the damp chapel, and the people sitting in the long rows of seats, except for a dozen gray robe murlocs, There are also two guys in black robes who can't see their faces. This should be the scarlet esoteric's own ring warlock. They are wearing different colors for Avatar's share.

The only two people who were not wearing robes were seated on the far left of the first row of church seats. Shade recognized Darkness's back at a glance, and the person beside him was also a member of the [Blood Spirit School].

"Besides me, there are 4 ring warlocks here. If I really want to fight, I can't fight even if there are Demonness rings"

The right hand carefully retracts the robe Inside, he touched the steam bomb hanging from his waist. Although Lai Xia didn't say what model it was, it was hard to tell the ring warlocks when it exploded in this underground space. Those who were just murlocs with strong resilience were definitely dead.

"It would be great if I could do spells like [Blast Corpse]."

Thinking of the two corpses in his pocket, Shade suddenly had an idea.
