Chapter 411 Talking Demons

Cultists didn't care about their dead companions, they stood there I looked towards Shade, and there was a vague feeling of being surrounded. With three ring warlocks, he can tie a ring warlock squad of the Orthodox Church, and Shade knows there must be something better in the wet chapel, so he doesn't have the confidence to swell to take the risk again.

He held the only remaining murloc fat sacrifice, and then glanced at Darkness and his companions, they were naturally standing with the murlocs. But Shade didn't panic. The sea breeze behind him indicated that there was definitely still a way behind the stone wall:

"Stay back, or I can't guarantee that I'll pull the trigger."

p>

He said loudly, because he had put on a mask before sneaking in in a robe, so he was not afraid of being recognized.

The fat murloc who was held hostage by Shade had no intention of struggling at all. It continues chanting prayers each minding their own business as if Shade didn't exist.

The cultists of the Scarlet Cult looked at Shade like Shade was a lunatic. But on closer inspection, Shade could see that everyone's lips were moving, and they were praying.

The inexplicable sense of unease made Shade a little surprised:

"Are there any traces of abnormal elements?"

[Yes, look at the ground. ]

Eyes looked towards the bottom, because of the attack just now and the resulting death, the blood of the fish people continued to infiltrate downward, and after entering the sewage on the ground, it seemed vaguely similar to the lines under the water surface. overlapped together.

With the humming prayers of the old murloc sacrificial being held by Shade, there is no need for a voice in the ear to remind that the more and more intense Blasphemy elements have become substantial silver rays of light emanating from the ground. out.

Shade suddenly realized:

"I killed them, what is the actual equivalent to sacrifice to ceremony? Wait, these guys don't originally I just planned to commit suicide, so I don't care about the manor being surrounded, right?"

Thinking that I couldn't wait any longer, Shade clenched the teeth, pulled the trigger directly, and shot the old fish man who was still praying. The annoying humming of prayers came to an abrupt end, but then the prayers of the last remaining cultists grew louder.

Shade turned and ran back, targeting the stone wall where the holy symbol was placed.

It is impossible to run away, there is still a ring warlock of unknown rank in the wine cellar. And since there is wind blowing from the hole in the wall, there must be a way behind.

"Don't let him run away!"

A voice came from behind, Shade couldn't see behind him, but "she" could.

【It's now! ]

"Ragle's jump!"

The spells and Mystic Art attacks coming from the back failed, the strikes were on the stone wall in front, opening up the back cover The narrow, rugged road, and the holy emblem of the Evil God rolled into the wreckage of the collapsed stone wall.

Shade's silhouette appeared in the corner on the side of the stone wall, and then slammed towards the narrow passage. With a neat roll, people had already rushed in.

"Fuck!"

Darkness probably wanted to win the favor of the cultists, so he came to the stone wall of the broken church one step faster than everyone else. .

"Don't chase!"

But the person behind him stopped him and turned to look, it was the only six-ring warlock in this group of cultists. It was he who blocked Shade's Silver Moon slash that didn't make things worse.

"No need to chase."

He knelt down and respectfully took out the intact holy emblem from the gravel pile. After the kiss, give it to the murloc behind you.

Seeing that Darkness was puzzled, he frowned looked towards the darkness in the depths of the rugged passage, and explained:

"The road behind the stone wall may indeed lead to the outside. , this is the passageway for transporting sensitive materials when we occupied the manor many years ago. But when we abandoned the manor sixty years ago, we sealed a clerical-level relic inside it, which is a sea monster.”

"clerical level? sea monster?"

The middle age person wearing red gloves immediately stepped back:
"Are you sure that the person just now will die at the hands of sea monster?"

"Of course, although it's clerical grade, it's sealed after use. It's been 60 years without problems, but what's going on inside, even our church can't tell. .Since he walked in by himself, we don't need to care."

The man looked towards the corpse of the ground murloc sacrifice with sympathy:
"I originally wanted to draw lots to decide the number of self-sacrifice. Well, the ceremony is done, there are ten minutes before sunrise, let's go too."

"Wait."

Darkness with dry yellow hair extends the hand :
"Where is the promise to me?"

Six-ringed warlock waved back, and the living murloc immediately found a box from the body of his companion. Handed the brass ring in the box to Darkness, who had an ecstatic expression on his face.

"Spell."

The cultist reminds, curious what Darkness is going to do.

"Of course—the change of silence and silence is a manifestation of hidden power!"

He took off red's gloves in front of everyone. After chanting the mantra, put the ring on the index finger of the right hand.

The skin on the palm of the hand wriggled and split, and the terrifying mouth was exposed. With the flip of the mouth and the sharp teeth, it actually spoke:
"I feel the blood and fear, this It's really good."

The mouth laughed heartily, and the terrifying language it used seemed to have the power to directly pollute the environment, making the cultists of the Crimson Cult feel nauseous and dizzy. Of course it wasn't the lingua franca of Delarion, or even a human language, and nobody but Darkness could understand it.

Seeing this strange scene, not only the cultists of the Scarlet Esoteric Sect, but also Darkness's companion, the short man from Beard, showed an uncomfortable expression on his face.

He subconsciously took a step back and saw a large shadow covering Darkness. His lips twitched, but he didn't ask his doubts.

Their original purpose was only to use flesh and blood nourishment technology in exchange for the promise of the fish people to help leave Cold Water Harbor. And the poet-level relic [Training Fish Ring] was a deal proposed by Darkness in private.

Afterwards, the entire group began to clean up the traces of ceremony, and used Mystic Art strikes Shade to enter the narrow stone gap behind the wall, causing it to collapse. Finally, clean up the corpses on the ground, so that the flesh and blood can be more evenly distributed on the carved ceremony traces.

About seven or eight minutes, just as the cultists were about to leave, they suddenly heard clear footsteps coming from the exit of the damp chapel:
"Who is playing steam bombs under my house? What?"

It was a woman's voice.

(Shade is running)

Shade is running wildly, more precisely, while running, while counting the time forward for Space Jump.

The walls are like natural cracks in the ground, and the curved road prevents him from being directly attacked by those behind him. But this feeling of back against the enemy is really tingling. Shade could only run forward as far as possible, occasionally turning around suddenly and throwing a light back, and then continuing to run away regardless of what was happening behind him.

After running like this for five minutes, I saw that the front had reached the end, and then I stopped and listened to the flat stone surface under my feet, but there was no sound of footsteps.

"Isn't it chasing? Or is it actually a dead end?"

But at this step Shade, there is no way to retreat, and it's better if the other party doesn't catch up, saying Maybe Miss Avrora will be here after a while because of the explosion of the steam bomb.

On the one hand, finding a way out by himself, on the other hand, waiting for the rescue of Demoness, this is Shade's real idea.

Now that you can't go back, move on. A human creation finally appeared in front of it. It was an iron door. At the position three-quarters of the iron door from the ground, there was a small opening large enough to deliver envelopes. It was as if the normal door was installed upside down.

The wind is blowing from the crack of the door and the small opening on the door, it is the fresh sea breeze, and considering that the Avrora manor itself is by the sea, it is very likely that the door leads to a seaside cave or something. place.

"But if it's so easy to find the exit, why don't the cultists catch up?"

Shade looked towards the iron door suspiciously, this door should be some years old , the traces of surface rust are very serious. I could barely see that there was a pattern on the door, and after careful identification, I could see that it was the holy emblem of Evil God [Master of the Scarlet Spiral].

"This door is placed here by the Scarlet Esoteric Cult."

He approached the door a little, and the inexplicable sense of unease made him not dare to open the door directly, but in the Heart asked:
"Is there anything unusual?"

[Nothing for now. ]

"Then."

There was no handle on the door, and the breathless Shade pressed his hand on the surface of the rusted iron door, and immediately felt that the spell [Key to the Door] was can be used, which means the door is actually locked. But it's not too difficult to unlock, just a little harder than Mr. Jude's safe.

"Could it be that the cultists outside thought that I couldn't open the door, so they didn't chase after me at ease?"

He didn't understand, after a closer inspection , actually under the rust on the edge of the door frame, a series of ancient rune incised was found.

After translation, Shade confirmed that this was the prayer for the seal. Only on the most dangerous seals, prayers of this level are written.

"What the hell is behind this?"

Looking at the door curiously, the door was still dark under the moonlight at the fingertips. Shade thought about it, and decided not to open this weird iron door rashly. He turned around and wanted to leave, to see what the murlocs were doing outside, maybe Miss Avrora had already arrived.

didn't expect Just two steps, along the passage, the sound of explosions and the howling wind caused by the turbulent air pressure rushed in directly.

"Oh!"

The strength of that strange wind was so strong that it directly sent the unprepared Shade flying out, and hit the iron behind him with a loud bang. On the door.

At the same time, because of the explosion and the strong wind, the entire passageway shook. Shade sat in front of the door, dumbfounded, listening to the sound of collapse in the distance.

The passage leading from the damp chapel to the door collapsed and stopped a few dozen steps away from Shade, the dust rising up and making him cough.

This time, even if you don't want to open the door, you can't.
