The metal coffin remained motionless for a while, and Li Xiu slowly looked away and looked at the table with the oil lamp.
It was a rectangular stone table, more like a table for worship than a table.
The confession was very rough. It was carved from bluestone and seemed to have not been polished at all. The surface was covered with dense lines and uneven pits.
The copper oil lamp was placed in the center of the confession. The base of the copper lamp should be made of brass, but now it is covered with green patina. The mottled old color makes it look like it has been ravaged by long years.
Lamp oil is a black oil that looks extremely viscous, a bit like petroleum crude oil, but exudes a weird fragrance.
The fragrance can't be said to be pleasant, it even feels a bit pungent, but it is indeed a fragrance and not unbearable.
Suddenly, Li Xiu found something next to the oil lamp. Because it was dark under the lamp, and because he suddenly entered such a dark environment, his eyes had not fully adapted, so Li Xiu did not see that thing just now.
Looking carefully, I found that it turned out to be a very strange-looking pistol.
The style of the revolver, the barrel is much longer and thicker than an ordinary revolver. The entire gun body is a matte off-white color with no metallic luster. It doesn't look like metal, but I can't be sure.
There are some blood-red patterns on the butt, barrel, runner, and even the firing pin.
The pattern is very irregular, and there is no sense of symmetry that humans like. It looks like tiny blood vessels are distributed on the gun body.
This weird pistol is larger than ordinary pistols, but it doesn't feel bulky. Instead, it has a strange beauty, like a dark artwork created by an artist with mental illness.
It has the beauty of a work of art, but also makes people feel creepy and shuddering.
Apart from that, there was nothing else on the stone table. Li Xiu hesitated and reached for the weird pistol.
The blood-red eyes on the metal coffin suddenly opened again, staring at Li Xiu with cold eyes. Only this time, Li Xiu didn't feel the power that restrained his body.
Li Xiu didn't know where this place was, and he didn't have any hints. He could only rely on his own feelings to make a judgment.
This gun may be the key.
Staring at the blood-red eyes, his fingers slowly touched the butt of the gun. The cold touch made Li Xiu couldn't help but shudder.
It seemed that what Li Xiu encountered was not a pistol, but something carved out of ice.
The moment Li Xiu touched the pistol, the pupils of his blood-red eyes shrank significantly.
This reaction made Li Xiu more sure of his guess. He stretched out his hand to hold the butt of the gun and was about to pick up the pistol.
But the next second, Li Xiu's expression changed.
The pistol seemed to be nailed to the table. Li Xiu was unable to pick it up or even move it.
Li Xiu frowned slightly, ignoring the cold air coming from his hands, and tried his best to pick up the pistol.
The result surprised Li Xiu. Even with all his strength, the pistol still didn't move at all, which made him wonder whether the pistol was really fixed on the stone table.
There was a look of ridicule in the blood-red eyes. Although there was no sound, Li Xiu felt as if it was saying: "That's it..."
Li Xiu felt that his hands were almost frozen. He took his palms back and put them to his mouth to breathe in the heat. It took a while before his fingers, which were numb from the cold, regained consciousness.
At the same time, Li Xiu had been observing the pistol with his eyes and found nothing fixed between the pistol and the stone table.
Without hesitation, Li Xiu reached out with both hands and quickly grabbed the pistol, trying to pick it up with the strength of his hands.
As a result, Li Xiu still didn't pick up the pistol, but moved it slightly.
Li Xiu continued to exert force with his hands, and the veins on his forehead popped out. He still couldn't pick up the pistol, and he only moved the pistol's position a little.
Li Xiu was really surprised at this time. He let go of the pistol and wiped his hands that were almost numb from the cold. He was secretly surprised: "This weird pistol is not fixed on the stone table. It's just that it's too heavy, so I I couldn't pick it up. But it's just a pistol. Even if it's a little bigger than an ordinary pistol, it doesn't weigh much. How could it be so heavy? And why is this pistol so cold? Is this really a pistol for people?"
The blood-red eyes no longer had the oppressive feeling of glaring before, and their eyes were full of mockery.
Li Xiu knew that with his own strength, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pick up the pistol.
Just when he was thinking about whether there was any other way, he suddenly felt the light and shadow changing in front of him. When the scene in front of him stabilized, he found that he had arrived in front of the blue stone door.
Immediately, two soldiers with guns rushed up. One soldier pointed his gun at Li Xiu's head, while the other soldier searched him and took away all the magic cores Li Xiu had obtained.
Li Xiu didn't care about those things and let the soldiers take away all the magic cores.
"Yes, you can get so many magic cores when you enter the trial gate for the first time. It seems that you have been in other trial gates before." Lao Gu looked at the magic cores sent by the soldiers and threw them away. Entering the box, he looked at Li Xiu and said with a smile.
Li Xiu didn't answer Lao Gu. All he could think about was the weird pistol and the demon spirit in the metal coffin.
It was a powerful demon spirit that he had never seen before. If such a demon spirit appeared on the earth, it would bring unimaginable disaster to the earth. Li Xiu himself was not sure whether the magic costume master could destroy him.
The weird pistol made him even more curious about what it was.
"Is it because of these things that you disregard life and death, enter the trial gate again and again, and never regret it until your death?" Li Xiu secretly muttered in his heart.
After the trial was completed, only about 80 people remained out of more than 100 people. Driven by the soldiers, they returned to the small and damp room.
Li Xiu was not driven back to his original room, but was taken to another room by the soldiers.
This room is much better than the previous room. In a place like this, it can even be described as luxurious. Not only is it spacious, but it has also been simply decorated and has moisture-proof floors.
The wall on one side is also decorated with a wine cabinet, which contains a lot of red wine.
"According to the contract, you can leave here, but there is a problem now. The way out has been collapsed by the demons, so I can only force you to stay here for a while. Wait for the rescue to clear out the demons outside, and then You can leave only after the passage is cleared." Lao Gu, who was sitting behind the large desk, looked at the contract documents in his hand and said with a smile: "Of course, the debt you owe has been paid, and your treatment is the same as that of those guys. Naturally, it is different. I will arrange a private room for you so that you can live more comfortably, and your food will be taken care of, but..."
"You still want me to enter the trial gate, right?" Li Xiu looked at Lao Gu's sanctimonious old face and said calmly.
"The situation outside is still unclear. Before rescue arrives, no one can say whether the demon spirits will break in. If the demon spirits really break in, the magic costume master is the only guarantee for our survival. Do more Provide the magic core to the magician so that they have enough energy to fight. You are not entering the trial for me or anyone else, but for yourself." Lao Gu said earnestly.
"I understand, there is no need to change rooms, and no special care is required. I will go back to the original room." Li Xiu glanced at Lao Gu and said calmly.
