Journey to the witch world

Half an hour later, the team arrived deep in the underground ruins.

Ahead are the ruins of Essos. The once ancient and glorious kingdom is now only a fragment of ruins. Among the many ruins, there are low stone houses belonging to civilians and a two-story stone building representing the city hall.

The Kingdom of Essos advocates black, so most of the buildings in the ruins are mainly black, and some giant spider reliefs are carved on the walls of some large buildings.

According to legend, the goddess of the night is a giant spider.

She was born on the land of the Kingdom of Essos, ignited the divine fire under the faith of countless subjects, and became the guardian of Essos, so she also transformed into the form of a half-human, half-spider god.

"Is this the ruins of the Kingdom of Essos?"

Lafite looked around, came to a collapsed wall, and touched the spider relief on it with his hand. The relief, which had experienced years of precipitation, was already somewhat worn and mottled. As soon as it was touched, it turned into small pieces of gravel and fell down. .

"There is blood there." Eve suddenly whispered.

Following the direction of her finger, Isaac saw some brown blood stains remaining on a rock. Although it had dried, judging from the extent, it should not have been left for more than a week.

"It seems that the fallen one is indeed hiding around here."

Isaac stroked the dried blood with his hand, a slight smile appeared on his face, then stood up, followed the remaining blood around him, and led everyone deeper into the ruins.

Not long after, following the blood trail, the team arrived outside a temple.

This is already the center of this ruined city. Compared with the buildings on the periphery, the temple in front of you is more complete. Although the appearance looks a bit old due to the erosion of time, you can vaguely feel a trace of grandeur and solemnity.

"It is said that during the First Age, all ancient humans believed in gods."

Isaac looked at the temple in front of him and sighed, "In order to win the favor of the gods, even if they are not fully clothed and have no food to eat, they will still build temples and dedicate the best to the gods."

"Instead of pursuing your own strength, you instead beg for mercy from others. How ridiculous!" Lafite curled his lips disdainfully.

Times have changed, the sea has changed, and the years belonging to gods have long gone. With today's concepts in the wizarding world, it is difficult to understand the thoughts of ancient humans. In the eyes of wizards, the pursuit of truth and one's own strength is the eternal truth. As for ancient human beliefs It is undoubtedly a foolish act to pray for the mercy of gods through priests and other means.

"Let's go in." Caroline shook her head and was about to step into the temple.

"Wait a minute!" At this time, Enzo suddenly stopped her, looking at the ground in front of the temple, and said in a deep voice, "Be careful, there is a rune trap set up there."

Caroline was startled and took a few steps back.

"I'll handle it." Isaac took a step forward, raised his arm slightly, condensed a ball of lightning in his palm, and then swung it towards the ground. As the ball of lightning exploded, the rune trap was also triggered.

"It's okay now, let's go."

After solving the rune trap, the team walked towards the temple. This magnificent building has hundreds of stairs, all carved from giant rocks.

It is hard to imagine how much it would have cost ancient people to build such a temple.

Several people walked through hundreds of stone steps and arrived at the entrance of the temple. Two metal doors made of bronze were open. They walked in and found that the interior of the temple was dark. Eve patted her palms lightly, and then a ball of light lit up.

The scene inside the temple comes into view.

The first is a huge statue, with the upper body of a goddess and the lower body of a spider. It has experienced countless years of baptism. The statue of the Night Goddess in the temple has long been cracked, and it seems that it will break if hit hard.

In addition to the huge idol enshrined in the center, there are four columns supporting the top of the temple.

Outside of these, there are only mottled walls around, carved with various reliefs, including some Essos texts, which seem to praise the glory of the goddess of the night to the world.

"Come out, stop hiding." Isaac looked around and suddenly said.

Although there was silence inside the temple, the rune traps outside and the faint smell of blood all around proved that there was indeed an injured fallen person hidden here.

After a while, the surroundings were still silent.

"Huh!" Isaac snorted, and suddenly flicked his hands, and strong magic waves spread from his body, spreading to every corner of the temple in an instant.

"Ahem!" Following a painful cough, a figure appeared next to a stone pillar.

It was a female apprentice, wearing a gray robe. Her face was very pale due to excessive blood loss. She was leaning against the stone pillar with a weak breath. There was a hideous wound on her left leg. It looked like it had deteriorated and exuded a smell of blood. .

The last disguise was torn, and the female apprentice Pamela fell into despair.

"Another third-level apprentice, it seems we are very lucky!" A smile appeared on Caroline's face, but a cold murderous intent flashed in her eyes, and she slowly walked towards Pamela.

The magic power turned into a lightning blade, and Caroline raised her palm.

"No! Wait a minute!" Seeing Caroline walking towards her, Pamela's eyes were filled with unconcealable fear, and she screamed hysterically, "Don't kill me! I'm willing to trade a secret for my life!"

"Secret? I'm not interested!" Caroline remained unmoved and struck with a thunder blade.

"Wait a minute, Caroline." At this time, Enzo suddenly said.

Caroline's movement stopped in vain. The thunder blade in her hand was fixed on Pamela's neck. If she moved forward an inch, she could cut her throat. She looked at Enzo in surprise, and then dissipated the magic power.

Opposite, Pamela, who was surviving the disaster, looked as if she had been fished out of the water. Her clothes were completely soaked with cold sweat. Her eyes were motionless, and her pupils were almost contracted to the extreme.

"Let's hear what her secret is first." Enzo said softly.

According to the scan of the chip just now, the female apprentice did not lie. She did hide a secret. Although he didn't know what it was about, Enzo still planned to find out.

"If I tell the secret, will you let me go?" Pamela swallowed her saliva and asked hesitantly.

Snapped!

After a hard slap, Caroline said with a smile: "I'm sorry, you don't have the qualifications to bargain with us. If you don't want to say it, I can kill you now."

"I know." After receiving a slap, Pamela lowered her head to hide the humiliation on her face.

"The secret I want to tell you is related to the leader of Falling Night City, the fraudster Justin." Pamela took a deep breath, organized her words in her mind, and said, "There are rumors that he died at the hands of the wizard of Thunder City. I I suspect this news is false!”

Please give me some recommendation votes, or even better, a monthly pass. Thank you very much!
