Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

There were too many skeletons in the ruins. Originally, Audis thought that the Abraham family had suddenly declined in a very short period during the Fourth Epoch, and some members of the Abraham family had hidden here and died here, which was why there were skeletons.

However, under the illumination of a signal flare fired by a member of the "Gnostic Society," Audis realized that he was wrong, because in the center of this space, there was a hill-like pile of skeletons.

And around the ground, there was also a thick circle of skeletons. If someone had hidden here and been trapped to death, they would never have died in a stacked manner.

The key was the astonishing number; the thick skeletons were laid out like a floor.

Audis felt a little strange, and the people from the "Gnostic Society" also felt strange. Audis faintly heard one of them say, "Could this be where the Abraham family put bones?"

The sweet and lovely "Maiden of Delight" beside him said, "A tomb? It doesn't look like it."

The "Gnostic Society" member explained, "No, I mean, for example, they raised some kind of monster here, and the monster ate the meat, leaving only the bones. Or perhaps, the Abraham family simply had a tradition of eating people…"

The "Maiden of Delight" said again, "Not very likely. What monster, or what person, would preserve the skeleton so perfectly after eating their prey?"

Audis thought to himself in the corner: I know someone who has done this before. His name is Darwin, but he didn't eat people.

These three "middle-sequence" members of the "Gnostic Society" carefully searched forward but found no trace of intruders.

On the inner side of this majestic hall full of skeletons, there were also two huge passages, each with two huge stone doors.

At this time, the stone doors were open, and inside it seemed clean, without a single skeleton.

The three members of the "Gnostic Society" guessed whether the intruders had already entered that stone door?

They did not continue to explore forward but opened the wall again to invite the "Maiden of Pain" in to discuss countermeasures.

At this time, because he was closer than when he was in the canopy, Audis clearly saw the face of the male wearing a captain's hat, which immediately reminded him of a wanted poster he had seen before.

His name was Yallman, the captain of the "Kreek" ship. This guy looked harmless, but he had carried out two very bloody massacres in the remote waters of the Rosed Islands.

Therefore, his bounty was as high as 8,600 pounds, which was relatively high among the "Great Pirates."

It seemed that the background of the "Kreek" pirate group was the "Gnostic Society." No wonder Yallman would carry out bloody massacres because the "Gnostic Society" believed that the flesh was a prison that bound the spirit, and they advocated that the spirit be liberated from the flesh.

There were two ways to achieve this liberation: one was to gain knowledge through spirituality, pass through layers of trials, and finally be liberated from the material world.

The other way was straightforward: to eliminate the flesh.

So, in Yallman's view, he was not killing people but helping those people to be liberated.

Audis, hiding in the corner, had already decided to find an opportunity to eliminate the "Kreek" pirate group, firstly to eradicate this scourge of the world, and secondly because this guy's bounty was indeed very tempting.

At this time, more and more members of the "Gnostic Society" came in, and the lanterns and torches illuminated the place.

With more people, the skeletons here were not so scary.

At the same time, Audis used their lights to see the magic circle on the wall clearly. It was another composite magic circle, which reminded Audis of the magic circle he had found on the stone door of the "Secret Chamber of TrenSost."

The two magic circles had many similarities and some differences, but at this time, Audis could only temporarily record the magic circle and study it when he had time.

Since this was a relatively closed space, Audis roughly heard the deployment of the "Maiden of Pain."

At the moment when Audis and Fors appeared in front of them, her spirituality had sensed that the male who "threw the scroll" was likely sequence 6, while the female who opened the door was only a "low sequence" extraordinary.

The "Maiden of Pain" guessed that the two of them probably had a magical item that could hide their tracks well.

Therefore, the deployment of this "Maiden of Pain" was that nine "middle-sequence" extraordinaries were divided into three groups, each leading a dozen crew members and sailors.

One group guarded the door, and two groups explored from different doors.

The two exploring groups both had the strength to relatively easily kill a sequence 6, and there were also people blocking the door to prevent the intruders from snatching important things and escaping.

Audis heard the others call this "Maiden of Pain" a "Director." He then recalled some information he had obtained about the "Gnostic Society."

This secret organization had a chairman and several vice-chairmen, followed by "Directors." Audis didn't know exactly how many directors there were, but it was said that these "Directors" were generally sequence 5 or sequence 6.

Directors were in the middle and upper levels of the "Gnostic Society."

Watching the three groups act separately, Audis did not follow the two exploring teams.

The members of the "Gnostic Society" guessed that the intruders must be waiting for them in front, and these people must be very vigilant, so it would be easy to be discovered if they followed them like this.

Audis focused his attention on the group guarding the door. He guessed that this group should be the weakest.

Their mission was to block and intercept, not to search.

The main members should only be one sequence 6 and two sequence 7s. If Audis was an ordinary sequence 6, he would not be able to break through their interception at all. Carelessly, he might be seriously injured or killed by the cooperation of the three "middle sequences."

The best situation would also be to be held back, and then the "middle-sequence" members of the other two groups would come to support him one after another.

But Audis was not an ordinary sequence 6. Not to mention his powerful scrolls, he now had three magical items of sequence 5 level with him.

If it was a one-on-one fight, Audis even had the confidence to kill the "Maiden of Pain."

However, the other party would not choose to fight one-on-one.

If the nine "middle sequences" of the "Gnostic Society" acted together, Audis would certainly not take the initiative to attack, or even launch a sneak attack, because that would be courting death.

But the other party was separated, or rather, normal people would form groups, after all, the intruder was not sequence 5.

Audis quietly observed the group of people on the other side of the wall, confirming that there was no sequence 5 inside.

Then, he began to constantly imagine and calculate. After more than ten minutes had passed, he finally whispered to Fors, "In a moment, you quietly approach that side."

"After I launch an attack, quickly run towards the wall, and after I shout at you, immediately open the door and run out."

"This scroll is called the 'Invisibility Scroll.' The incantation is to say 'Open' in Ancient Hermes, run halfway out, and then quickly use the scroll, pretending to run out, but actually quietly returning."

"Then, we will still meet here."

As he spoke, Audis handed an "Invisibility Scroll" to Fors.

Fors was not clear about the "Captain's" plan, but she was very clear that it was right to obey the "Captain's" orders, so she nodded vigorously to show that she understood.

Then she saw the "Captain" quickly walk towards those enemies guarding the door.

Fors immediately understood the "Captain's" intention, and she once again felt the excitement and excitement: This is adventure, an adventure full of madness and danger.

If Audis was hiding there without moving, it would indeed be difficult for even an angel to find him.

But once he started to act, he would definitely make a faint sound, and even if such a sound could not be heard, the spirituality of an extraordinary could capture it.

The sequence 6 had already noticed the abnormality and looked towards Audis.

Audis suddenly began to accelerate, first throwing out a "Spirit Burst Scroll." The sequence 6 had already reacted, opening his arms: "I come, I see, I record!"

A phantom book, slowly turning, was reflected in his eyes. Two ice arrows appeared in front of him, stabbing towards the scroll.

But at the moment the scroll was stabbed, it exploded on its own, turning into a pale white light.

This light flashed across all the members of the "Gnostic Society."

The dozen people in front of the wall simultaneously made surprised expressions and dodging actions, standing there stiffly.

This was the third scroll invented by Audis on Monday, and also the most powerful scroll among them.

If you observed this group of people with "Spirit Vision" at this time, you would find that their spirit bodies were pushed out of their flesh by some external force. At this time, the spirit bodies were desperately struggling to return to their flesh.

Audis decided to use this scroll, not only because it could keep the enemy in a stiff state for a longer time than the "Thunderstorm Scroll," but also because this scroll was silent, and the enemy could not speak within a few seconds after being attacked.

The "Thunderstorm Scroll" not only had the sound of electric arcs, but the hit enemy would also scream.

For Audis, these few seconds were crucial!

Although the two exploring groups had been exploring for more than ten minutes, the "Maiden of Pain" should be able to rush over within ten seconds.

With these few seconds, Audis's plan could be more relaxed, and he might even have time to collect the spoils of war.

Those who were in a stiff state also included the sequence 6 "Recorder," but he could recover faster than the lower sequence extraordinaries.

For example, sequence 7 needed 5 seconds to get rid of this stiff state, while he only needed 3 seconds.

But Audis would not give him 3 seconds. He used the "Travel Ring" to almost instantly reach the tall wall.

Although it was impossible to use "Travel" to enter here from outside the wall, once inside, one could use "Travel" for short bursts of teleportation. However, it was impossible to leave this "Secret Realm"; one could only teleport within it.

Audis arrived beside the enemy and punched the Sequence 6, the "Recorder". As the "Recorder" was sent flying, he basically broke free from his stiffened state.

In mid-air, he was about to counterattack with his extraordinary abilities, but before he could use them, he spat out a mouthful of blood and suddenly felt that he was on the verge of death.

Audis's punch was no ordinary punch; it was a punch delivered using the "Reaping Gauntlets". Even a graze would be equivalent to a severe injury.

Audis, still not reassured, threw another punch: "Death!"

With one punch, this "Recorder" was killed just like that.

Audis breathed a sigh of relief and immediately realized: this combo might not be as effective against Sequence 5s.

This was because some Sequence 5s, after suffering serious injuries, might have some means to avoid that state, such as the "Agony Witch", who would definitely use a substitute.

Of course, even if they used a "Substitute", the "Agony Witch" would definitely be injured, because the "Reaping Gauntlets" reaped life, not just inflicting injury.

However, after the opponent used "Substitute", they would be fully capable of escaping quickly. Therefore, this combo would at most drive the opponent away, and it would be difficult to kill them like this Sequence 6.

But now was not the time to ponder this. Audis turned to look at the two Sequence 7s, who had finally broken free from their stiffened state. One of them, the "Witch", immediately "Invisibilized".

The other Sequence 7 was an "Astrologer", who did not have the ability to "Invisibilize" and could only run towards the wall immediately, wanting to use "Opening" to escape from here.

Audis threw out an "Ice and Snow Scroll", freezing the opponent into an ice sculpture. Then, Audis used an "Ice Arrow Scroll", and several ice-cone-like "Ice Arrows" appeared, piercing into the "Astrologer's" body, solving another enemy.

Fors, who was running towards this side, was stunned. She tripped over a skeleton bone and nearly fell.

After quickly regaining her balance, Fors thought to herself as she ran: "Leader's" strength has become much stronger! In the blink of an eye, he has already killed two "Mid-Sequence" Beyonders.

Hugh had described the battle she and "Leader" had with the enemy in the park. At that time, Leader's abilities were not enough to deal with two Sequence 7s.

At this moment, more and more crew members and sailors recovered from their stiffened state.

Their condition was still very poor, their hands and feet were cold, and their joints were stiff.

These dozen or so people screamed and scrambled to dodge, with no intention of dealing with Audis together.

This was the opportunity Audis was waiting for, and he shouted at Fors: "The thing is in our hands, let's go!"

While speaking, he carefully observed his surroundings to avoid being ambushed by the "Witch" in "Invisibility".

While Fors went to "Open" a door, Audis took out the sub-array of the "Space Array" and threw the corpses of the "Recorder" and "Astrologer" into it.

At this time, there was no time to wait for the extraction of the extraordinary characteristics; they could only be extracted in the "Knowledge Wilderness".

Fors, according to Audis's instructions, pretended to be escaping from here, but when she passed the wall, she used an "Invisibility Scroll" and turned back just as she was about to go out.

Audis saw that the "Agony Witch's" reinforcements were faster than expected. She had already appeared at the entrance of one of the stone giant doors.

From the time Audis launched the attack until now, it had only been about ten seconds, and the sailors and crew members had only started screaming about two or three seconds ago.

Theoretically, the other two groups should have only noticed the attack here at that time.

However, the speed at which the "Agony Witch" arrived was much faster than Audis had expected, at least five or six seconds faster!

This made Audis seriously suspect that the "Agony Witch" had deliberately made this group guarding the door the weakest, with the purpose of letting himself attack here, and then the "Agony Witch" would quickly return to support.

It was just that Audis's strength exceeded her expectations, and those guarding the door did not last even ten seconds.

Audis also entered the illusory gate in the wall like Fors, used an "Invisibility Scroll", and then turned back.

And seized the time to blend into the crowd before the "Agony Witch" came to the wall, to cover up his footsteps.

At this time, the vicinity of the wall was in chaos. When the "Agony Witch" stabilized the situation, Audis had already hidden back to the place where he and Fors had rendezvoused.

However, because the two of them had used "Invisibility Scrolls" separately, they could not see each other.

Taking advantage of the "Agony Witch" asking what was going on, and other "Knowledge Church" members returning one after another, Audis used another "Invisibility Scroll" again.

Fors's figure gradually appeared not far away. At this time, the two of them were hiding their tracks under the effect of the same "Invisibility Scroll", so they could see each other.

Fors quietly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Audis.

The action just now was too thrilling and exciting. She didn't know if it was from running or excitement, but at this time, Fors's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were sharp. She didn't expect that she, a Sequence 8, would also have such a thrilling and exciting adventure!

Excited as she was, Fors still quietly moved her feet and hid behind Audis.

Not a word wrong, not a single typo!

On the wall side, the "Witch" who had "Invisibilized", as well as the crew members and sailors, were all saying that the two people had already run out.

And one of them, "that man", also shouted something like "the thing is in our hands", and everyone thought that they had taken something important and left just now.

The "Agony Witch" first divined the corpses of the "Recorder" and "Astrologer", but she didn't divine anything.

She glanced at the hall full of skeletons and finally ordered that only one Sequence 8 be left with a few people to guard this place, while the others, led by Yellman, the captain of the "Kreek", would continue to search in the door on the left.

And the "Agony Witch" and two "Pleasure Witches" entered the state of "Invisibility".

Audis immediately realized when he heard the other party's deployment: Crap, he had oversmarted himself! He shouldn't have shouted "The thing is in our hands" just now, as if telling the people of the "Knowledge Church" that he was about to leave. At this time, making such an "explanation" was a bit superfluous.

And the "Agony Witch" obviously seriously suspected that the two people had not left yet, so she and the "Pleasure Witches" also entered the state of "Invisibility".

This made Audis not dare to move rashly, as there might be "Invisibilized" Witches around him.

Audis was not in a hurry and continued to hide in place to observe.

As long as he didn't take the initiative, the other party couldn't possibly find him and Fors.

The "Knowledge Church's" new action began, and dozens of people went to the back of the huge stone door again. At this time, they were basically deceived by Audis's actions just now and relaxed their vigilance, and many people began to chat.

Audis did not blend into them as originally planned. He knew that the "Agony Witch" must be watching these people closely at this time.

However, through their conversation, Audis did know that the structures inside the two stone doors were the same. First, they passed through a long corridor, and there was also a huge stone chamber inside the corridor.

The stone chamber on the right seemed to have been destroyed by some great force, especially the ground, which had been dug out by someone into a big pit.

The stone chamber on the left was relatively well-preserved, but there also seemed to have been some monsters there, and many places on the ground had been trampled down.

They were just looking for things that were still valuable and were now going back to continue searching.

Audis pondered for a moment and decided to explore the corridor and stone chamber on the right first. There were not many people on that side, which could avoid being discovered, and if he operated properly, he could also kill a "Mid-Sequence" Beyonder of the other party.

But not now, he had to wait a while.

This was ultimately a game of patience, and that "Agony Witch" couldn't keep wasting time with Audis.

Audis guessed that she would definitely wait here for a while first. If she didn't wait for the target, she would definitely rush to the stone door on the left and quietly observe the searching process of her subordinates, in case they found something valuable and it was snatched by the target.

Just at this moment, several skeletons near the wall suddenly sat up, picked up the weapons around them, and pounced on the people guarding the door.

Audis was stunned. His first thought was that there was a third group of people here!

It was that group of people who were operating the skeletons!

However, Audis still observed quietly and put on the ring that could hide in the shadows.

This ring came from an "Invisibilist" that Audis had killed before and could hide in the shadows for a certain period of time.

The negative effect was that if he wore it for too long, he would hear the voice of the "True Creator", so Audis generally didn't dare to use it indiscriminately.

At the beginning, Audis didn't think he would use the ring, and he hadn't even named it.

Until Audis obtained the "Blessing of the Night Goddess", this ring became a treasure. As long as he hid in the shadows, no one could find him.

So Audis named it the "Invisibilist Ring". At this time, an unknown enemy suddenly appeared, and there was not much light in the hall, so it was likely that he could use it.

At this time, the skeletons were quickly covered by black flames, and the spirituality that supported their existence was quickly drained, and they soon scattered on the ground.

Obviously, at least one of those three "invisible" "witches" was currently hiding in the dark, quietly watching this place.

After those few skeletons were "burned to death" by the black flames, more than a dozen skeletons actually crawled back up.

Not only was the "witch" hiding in the dark confused, but Audis was also confused, unable to figure out what kind of operation this "third party" was up to for a moment?

At this moment, Audis's eyes suddenly became deep, and he secretly thought "糟糕" (zāogāo - 'bad' or 'oh no'), the "Eye of Secrets" was about to open on its own.

Although this was a passive skill, this process would also consume spirituality, and the effect created by the "Invisibility Scroll" would also be broken.

Fortunately, Audis had just put on the "Hermit Ring", and at the moment the invisibility effect disappeared, he merged into the shadows.

Because he didn't have time to say hello to Fors beforehand, the "Captain" suddenly disappeared, causing her to immediately become somewhat flustered.

Audis quickly used "shadows" to flicker in front of her, telling her that he was right beside her, to prevent her from making any noise.

At the same time, Audis's "Eye of Secrets" saw that there was an invisible force flowing in the hall, and ordinary "spiritual vision" couldn't even see that force!

The closer to the wall, the faster this force flowed.

Audis's line of sight followed the "flow" of this force, slowly turning to the central "skeleton mound", the source of that force seemed to be inside it.

Inside the skeletons, Audis saw a man with feathers on his back, with some yellow greasy dirt on the feathers.

He opened his eyes wide, looking in the direction of the wall, but there was no look in those eyes, like a pair of dead fish eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the "Eye of Secrets" closed on its own, Audis breathed a sigh of relief, analyzing everything he had just seen: "In the mound piled up of skeletons, there is a male in a strange state, he seems to be dead, but definitely not dead yet.

Through the feathers on the other party's back, it can be basically determined that he should be related to the 'Death' pathway.

As for that invisible force, it should have already existed in this hall, or rather, it was a force that the male in that strange state had arranged here in advance.

The scroll I used just now activated this force to a certain extent, which in turn awakened these skeletons!

At this time, no one is commanding these 'skeleton warriors', but because their nature as undead creatures is to pounce on living people. So it looks like the members of the 'Knowledge Church' have been attacked."

Thinking of this, Audis realized that the time to act was coming.

At this time, those dozen or so "skeleton warriors" had been "burned to death" again, but more than twenty skeleton warriors immediately got up again!

The crew members and sailors guarding the walls were all seasoned, they didn't panic, and they drew their weapons and put on a defensive posture.

But this made the "witch" hiding in the dark realize the seriousness of the problem, she broke away from the "invisibility" state and froze those "skeleton warriors" in place.

Just as Audis expected, the one "squatting" in the hall was that "Pain Witch".

She came to these "skeleton warriors" and studied why these skeletons suddenly "came alive".

Audis knew that the opportunity had come, he used shadows to pull on Fors's clothes, signaling her to follow him.

The two quietly came to the huge stone door on the inner side of the hall, Audis saw that there was an ancient giant text character on each of the two doors.

The character on the right door was "North", and the character on the left door was "South".

Audis looked back, at this time, more than twenty skeletons rushed towards the "Pain Witch" with weapons, which seriously disrupted her deployment.

Otherwise, he and Fors would have made some noise along the way, and she should have been targeted long ago.

Audis did not deliberately hide Fors's footsteps, which might lure out the other "witches".

According to the plan, Audis led Fors into the right door.

On the right wall of the corridor were murals that had been ruined beyond recognition by something, there were some small scratch marks, as if they had scratched every inch of the wall.

On the left wall, there were several "ancient giant text" characters engraved on the wall.

There were also small scratch marks on this wall, but fortunately these characters were engraved deep enough, otherwise they should have been scratched away.

A relatively large character was engraved high up, after seeing these characters clearly, Audis almost laughed, because this character in ancient giant text represents the meaning of "storage" and "warehouse".

In other words, the warehouse of this "Extraordinary Transfer Station" is actually behind this wall.

And the other smaller ancient giant text characters were about one person's height, which marked the location of the warehouse switch.

There was a main door switch and a small door switch.

Because no one in the "Knowledge Church" understands "ancient giant text", no one has ever opened it here.

Audis came to the wall, stretched out his hand from the shadows, placed it on the "small door switch", and injected spirituality.

Click ~

With a crisp sound, the mechanism was activated, opening a small door.

Audis waved to Fors, taking the lead to go in.

Fors was somewhat surprised, not expecting that there was actually a mechanism here, while marveling that the "Captain" actually knew such a secret mechanism, Fors quickly followed.

It was dark inside the door, but Audis still accurately found the location of the door closer.

After the door closed, Audis smiled and said: "There should be lighting facilities here... Ah, found it."

While speaking, Audis used the guidance of the ancient giant text characters to find the location of the "lamp" and injected spirituality.

The crystal on the top of the warehouse then emitted light, illuminating the entire warehouse.

Fors saw that the area of this warehouse was not small, with many wooden boxes and supplies piled up, and there was a small stone platform in the middle, with some small wooden boxes neatly placed on it.

Her first thought was: We're rich!

Those supplies may not be worth much money, but those small wooden boxes on the stone platform must contain something valuable.

Just as Fors was about to step forward to check, Audis reached out and stopped her.

He only heard the "Captain" suddenly say to the direction of the door: "Come out! I already found you."

Fors immediately put on a defensive posture, guessing that a "witch" had followed in.

But there was no movement in the direction of the door.

Audis smiled: "Then I'll have to ask you to come out."

Whoosh ~

He raised his hand wearing the "Harvest Gauntlet", and the direction of the door was immediately covered by layers of fire walls.

At this time, a black flame burned a gap in the fire wall, and a phantom shadow jumped out of the "fire wall".

The phantom figure quickly became solid, it was a sweet and lovely miss, the other party asked with a melodious voice with a smile: "How did you notice that I followed in?"

Audis smiled: "I didn't notice anything, but now I know that someone has followed in."

Fors smiled unkindly: So it turned out that he was just tricking this "witch".
