Walking down the steps into the deep and quiet underground passage, Xie Lun immediately felt something strange. The air is filled with the stench of sulfur, indicating that demons have appeared here. The deliberately disrupted space and the illusion of layout are enough to make ordinary people who step here lose their way, and then be trapped in this seemingly short underground passage forever.
Xie Lun didn't need to hold a flashlight and walked as fast as he could in the dark underground passage where he couldn't see his fingers. The messy garbage and abandoned trolleys piled up in the passage did not cause any hindrance to him at all.
Soon he reached the end. Although it was pitch black in front of him, he could still clearly see that the wall in front of him was covered with spider webs and wet moss, and there were a few worms squirming on it, which looked extremely real.
But this could not be hidden from Sherron's eyes.
Xie Lun stared at the wall in front of him, tilted his head for a moment, then suddenly took action and dragged out a humanoid monster with green eyes from the darkness beside him. The monster's entire body was wet and slippery, and its facial features were twisted into a ball, as if a catfish had become sperm.
The monster whose neck was choked by Xie Lun made a weird cry of "Sisi" and resisted desperately with its hands with sharp claws. Unfortunately, its resistance had no effect. An invisible force enveloped it and gradually fixed it tightly.
Xie Lun grabbed it by the neck, moved it in front of him, looked around, and then shook his head in disgust: "An unconscious corpse."
As he spoke, he slammed the monster in his hand against the wall in front of him with his backhand. As a result, the monster easily passed through the wall and smashed away other monsters that had been hidden behind the wall.
Strange screams of "Sisi" rang out all around, and countless green-eyed monsters rushed towards Xie Lun from all directions.
Xie Lun shook his head, ignoring the swarming monsters, and just took a step forward. He easily got rid of this illusion and came to a closed iron door.
Arken appeared quietly from behind Sherron, put his hand on the rusty iron door, and seemed to caress it with some nostalgia.
"What? Your kind were once imprisoned here?"
Although Arken had never spoken, Sherron could clearly understand her thoughts. He frowned slightly and said, "I thought you were the only ancient god in this world."
Arken shook his head.
"At first, you ancient gods ruled the earth, but after you failed in the battle with the later gods, you were imprisoned and sealed in different places on the earth. As time goes by, you are the only ancient god left alive on the entire earth, and the others have long since Fallen?"
Xie Lun frowned: "That's not right. Aren't you ancient gods connected to the core of the earth? As long as the earth is not destroyed, you will not die?"
Aken looked at Sherren with a sad expression, his big eyes were slightly red.
"Suicide?" Xie Lun was confused, "You ancient gods are also sentimental, will you commit suicide?"
Arken pouted and suddenly stretched out his foot to step on Sherron's toes, as if to vent his dissatisfaction.
Instead of being angry, Xie Lun laughed: "Theoretically it's impossible, so you have always suspected that there was something wrong with their suicide. However, you have been unable to come and check it in person because you were sealed before, so now you want to entrust me to investigate?"
He reached out and ruffled Yakeen's hair and said with a smile, "Of course it's no problem."
After hearing this, Yaken became happy again, stood on tiptoes, and took the initiative to kiss the corner of Sherron's mouth.
"But you also have to thank them for dying, so you will become the strongest ancient god?" Xie Lun's expression became strange, "Every time an ancient god dies, his abilities will be equally distributed to the other surviving ones. Ancient gods, and now they are all dead, so their abilities have been absorbed by you, so... if they are still alive, you have to find a way to kill them?"
Yakeen nodded vigorously. The red eyes and sad expression were all gone. Instead, he had an attitude of eagerness to try.
Xie Lun couldn't help but ask: "Back then, was the relationship between you ancient gods like this?"
Arken rolled his eyes, pouted, and thought for a while before shrugging at Sherren.
"Can't remember?" Xie Lun opened his eyes wide, "Who are you fooling? You remember other things so clearly, but you can't remember this thing?"
He stretched out his hand and flicked Yak'en's forehead, shook his head and said with a smile: "I finally know why you failed back then. It would be strange if you didn't fail because of such intrigues and internal strife."
Yakeen stuck out his tongue a little naughtily, and followed Xie Lun's example, reaching out and flicking Xie Lun's forehead. With a muffled sound of "bang", Xie Lun flew backwards in the air, hit the wall behind hard, and directly crashed into a large human shape.
Arken was stunned.
She didn't control her strength well.
After being stunned for a while, Yaken quickly ran forward and hurriedly dug Sherron out of the wall. Like a child who had made a mistake, he shook Sherron's thighs with his hands to act coquettishly. It's a pity that because of her excitement, she used too much strength, shaking Xie Lun like a leaf in the strong wind, and all the bones in his body were about to fall apart.
"You don't want to kill me too, do you?"
Sherron leaned his head from the side and stared at Yaqion.
Yakeen was stunned and looked at the "Xie Lun" in his hand. Cracks emerged from the skin of "Xie Lun", and in a short time it turned into grass.
It's just that poor Xiaocao's eyes were wide open at this time, like a spoiled rag doll, limply slumped in Yaken's hands, and no longer had the domineering and dignity of a terrifying monster.
"I just wanted to have fun with you, but I didn't expect you to be so cruel?"
Sherron pinched Yak'en's cheek and twisted it hard.
Yaken's eyes were filled with tears and he didn't dare to resist. He just looked at Sherren pitifully. Xie Lun would not be deceived by her current appearance. He kept pinching Ya Keen's cheeks like a monkey's red butt before letting go with satisfaction.
At this time, the iron door that had been closed suddenly made a creaking sound and slowly opened from the inside.
A soft orange light shone from the door, and a black man in a decent suit poked his head out, smiled at Sherren and Aken, and said, "How long are you two going to play at the door?"
Xie Lun seemed to raise his eyebrows in surprise: "I didn't expect there were people living inside."
The black man smiled and said: "Isn't it because you were worried about a trap behind the door, so you delayed the time on purpose?"
Xie Lun patted his forehead lightly and smiled at Ya Keen: "It seems that our thoughts have been seen through by others."
Yakeen threw away the spoiled grass and resumed his usual expressionless and indifferent face. He stood behind Xie Lun and stared at the black man coldly.
The black man opened the iron door and stepped forward to make an inviting gesture. Sherron shrugged and walked in. I saw that the door was a circular platform just like the Three Eyes Alliance underground base in the United States. It's just that this platform seems to have been decorated into a living room, with sofas, coffee tables, and TVs. Even on the edge of the platform, there is a circle of bookshelves and wine racks filled with books and wine bottles.
A figure sat with his back on the sofa, holding a tall wine glass in his hand. He looked at the blood-like red wine in the glass and laughed softly: "Welcome, Detective Xie, long time no see."
Xie Lun raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the man's back, and said hesitantly: "Jamie?"
