There is a small island in the center of Beinz Blood Lake, and it is also the only island in the lake. Because of its special geographical location, this island is regarded as the holy place among the holy places. This is the place where the world rests, so they built a magnificent chapel on the island as the goddess's underground palace.
Such a holy place is usually heavily guarded by soldiers, and the outer edge of the island in the middle of the lake is where the most powerful knights of the Huiyao Sect are stationed. It is impossible to walk in under their noses. Even Vivian's ability to hide at night might not be able to hide the strength of these church masters, but Hao Ren has other means to get in.
In a depression on the shore of the blood lake that can obscure the view, Hao Ren led a group of his tenants to sneak up here. He took out the data terminal: "You fly to the church first, and if there is no one there, just send We teleport in. Be careful not to be seen."
"What if the machine is shot down?"
Hao Ren said comforting words: "Don't worry, I will find Raven 12345 to apply for a new one."
"Your uncle!"
Hao Ren rolled his eyes and looked at the data terminal: "Because I firmly believe that you will never be shot down, so hurry up and stop dawdling." According to the information obtained by everyone, although the small island in the middle of the lake was surrounded by heavy soldiers, only the central government The church is deserted, and that church is almost always locked down as a forbidden place. It only opens the gate twice a year, that is when Baozhu tours every year to open the door to welcome Baozhu and when Baozhu leaves. The church has been largely off limits since Pope Antony III issued a new interpretation of the Holy Scriptures hundreds of years ago. There are only the following situations that can enter the church: At this time of the orb tour, four unnamed ascetic monks entered the front hall of the church together as the orb guards. They can stay there for four days; the popes of the Glory sect can use divine magic to determine the date of their own death. They hand over the papacy to their successors one month before their death, and then spend the last month of their lives in the church ;A special monk who always wears a gray robe, no one knows his identity and name, this monk enters through the back door of the church on the night of the full moon every main month, and is responsible for cleaning and other chores. In addition, not even the king of Holletta can visit this church. While waiting for the data terminal to send back a message, Vivienne couldn't help turning her head to look at Lily: "By the way, do you really need to dress like this?"
Lily was dressed all in black. Even her face was wearing a black mask that only exposed her eyes. She looked like a heroine who was about to enter the Forbidden City alone. When she heard Vivienne's words, she immediately shook her head: "Hmph, you don't understand, this is called professionalism." , how can you do stealth without wearing night clothes?"
Vivian pointed to Lily's shiny silver tail and ears: "Put these things away first."
Lily continued to shake her head: "No, this is the pride of werewolves."
Hao Ren felt that the biggest variable in the action tonight should be the husky whose mind is often out of track, but it doesn't matter, if there is an emergency, Lily can be thrown out. This loud canine is a great distraction.
"Besides, why did we bring Doudou with us?" Vivienne looked at the little mermaid hanging on Hao Ren's arm again, "You left her pot in the room."…
"Don't worry," Hao Ren poked the little fish baby who was holding his arm tightly like an armband, "There is no revolving door. The little guy is easy to be scared, and it's not like you didn't see her in the room just now Sneaking at other people's tables, I don't dare to let this little guy out of my sight now. That Hilda seems to have lost her soul all the time, I don't believe she can help take care of Doudou."
At this moment. Suddenly there was a slight wind sound in the night sky, and the data terminal appeared like a ghost in the night: "There is no one in the chapel. The surrounding area is also very quiet, let's go."
The figures of Hao Ren and the others distorted for a while, and the next moment they were teleported to the church on the small island in the middle of the lake.
The sacred island in the middle of the lake was still quiet, and the church knights stationed around the island had no idea that their holy land had been invaded by outsiders. However, there is one piece of information that Hao Ren and the others failed to find out, that is, although the church in the center of the lake is unmanned, it is also capable of defense. Permitted visitors, or high-ranking members of the church close the church defenses from a hidden way, otherwise any reckless intruders will be mercilessly attacked by countless magic circles.
This is why the Huiyao Sect will safely leave its highest forbidden area "unguarded".
But tonight, when Hao Ren and the others broke into the church, all the defenses and alarm systems were as quiet as if they had fallen asleep.
The bright light of the double moon shines into the church vestibule through the tall and narrow stained glass windows of the church, so that the situation inside is barely visible. Hao Ren and his party quickly got rid of the brief dizziness of teleportation, and looked at everything here curiously.
Just like the churches in other places, the front hall is simply furnished, with no benches or cushions for people to rest. Although the church looks magnificent, the front hall is very plainly furnished. The most luxurious part here is at the end of the front hall. It is a small altar that symbolizes the place where the goddess stepped. It is made of the most expensive shining crystal and placed on a huge obsidian board. All kinds of exquisite instruments that symbolize the authority of the goddess make this place look like a throne.
And not far in front of the small altar, Hao Ren saw that the ground there was completely sunken.
"This should be the place where the orb was placed." Vivienne came to the sunken ground, bent down and touched the smooth section as if cut by a sharp knife, "It is said that there was originally a high platform here, but it seems that it has followed The orb was removed along with it, and part of the floor was also missing."
Lily turned her head cleverly to look around, and suddenly raised her head: "Ah, there is also a part of the ceiling by the way!"
Looking in the direction of Lily's finger, there was also a circular area neatly dug out from the ceiling of the front hall, which corresponded exactly to the depression in the floor below.
Vivienne nodded: "Sure enough, it should be space teleportation, and it's a very primitive and crude teleportation method. It doesn't limit the teleportation target, but directly teleports away everything within the range." She stepped back a few meters away , visually inspected the prototype depression range of the floor and ceiling: "It should be an oblate spherical space bubble with a radius of five or six meters, not a true sphere."
"Is it man-made or a natural phenomenon?" Hao Ren was very concerned about this.
"I don't know. It happened two months ago. Even the man-made fluctuations in magic power should have dissipated." Vivienne shook her head and looked around. To save the scene."
Lily squatted down, sniffing the smell left on the ground habitually, but she shook her head in confusion: "It's strange, there's only a smell of fabric, it doesn't seem to be..."...
Nangong Wuyue kindly reminded her: "You're still wearing a mask..."
Lily: "... oh."
Hao Ren came to the luxurious altar at this time, and his attention was attracted by the mural behind the altar.
This is also the kind of weird mural he saw in the small church of the mountain people. The strange colors of black and red are intertwined, and there is a light of unknown meaning in the middle.
It seems that this kind of thing is arranged in all the churches of the Hui Yao Sect. What does it mean
Hao Ren stared at the mural for a while, and always felt that the black and red ribbons were slowly moving, but whenever he paid attention to the colors that seemed to be floating, they returned to their original positions in an instant—or it might be It really didn't move at all. He didn't understand why such things of unknown meaning were placed in the church. It stands to reason that such a place should have an icon of a goddess or some other religious totem.
And he still vaguely remembers the murals he saw in the mountain people's church, and the one in front of him doesn't seem to be the same as that one.
