The wooden door looks very new, and the decorative patterns on it are even similar to the recently popular styles. There is no doubt that it is a masterpiece of modern people.
There was no lock on the door, so Lavery used his sword to push open a crack, and then threw a magical crystal in. After a moment, he nodded: "There is a divine element."
Lysa and Austin were both excited, but at the same time they also became extremely vigilant - anything involved with the gods would not be smooth sailing, especially this kind of ruins that exuded suspicious atmosphere everywhere.
"I'll go in first, and you two will follow." Lesa took a step forward and took the lantern from Revry's hand.
The lantern changed instantly when it came into Lesa's hands. The original warm yellow light suddenly dimmed, and then turned into a faint blue, complementing the pale candlelight in the corridor.
At the same time, Lesa's own temperament also became completely different. Her face became cold and solemn, and her facial features lost their agility as if carved in stone. They were replaced by the holiness that Austin felt in Sophia.
She gently opened the door, and everything inside was revealed in front of the three of them - a prayer room. The decoration should be in the style of Poseidon Church.
But what is different from ordinary prayer rooms is that there is a yellowed parchment scroll placed on the table where the statue of the god is enshrined.
Austin glanced at it, wondering if it might be a clue about the Godslayer.
Lysa walked into the house carrying the lantern, placed the lantern beside the desk, knelt in front of the statue and began to pray. Austin glanced at Lavery and found that the latter had a solemn face and clenched his fists tightly, but made no next move.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he couldn't act rashly.
I don't know how long it took, but Lysa's prayer was still not over, but the lantern beside her began to flicker with a certain rhythm, and the frequency of flickering became faster and faster.
Upon seeing this, Revery rushed forward, put his hands on Lesa's shoulders and tried to pull her up, but the next second, the magical crystal necklace he was wearing exploded, and he himself fell into a strange stillness. .
Austin stood there with his eyes wide open. Most of the magical crystals carried by Revry were aimed at the power of gods. There was no big reaction in the previous two detections. Now they exploded. The mysterious lantern Just flashing there has no effect at all. Is this prayer room so evil?
Judging from the appearance of these two people, it was 100% that they were affected by the illusion, and the safety measures they had prepared before were ineffective.
After looking at the scroll, Austin thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and took two steps forward to kneel in front of the desk.
Very silky, he entered a dreamland.
The prayer room in the illusion was exactly the same, except that there was no Lysa and Revry beside him, and he was the only one kneeling directly in front of the statue.
The sheepskin scroll in front of the statue has been unfolded. It is floating in front of the statue, emitting a faint fluorescent light.
Austin couldn't help but glance at it, and his eyes exploded with a "pop" like a squeezed water balloon.
The severe pain caused him to faint. When he opened his eyes again, he was still kneeling in front of the statue, and his eyes were still fine.
Austin simply closed his eyes this time, stood up gropingly, and reached out to hold the scroll. The next moment, a series of huge blisters suddenly appeared on the hand holding the scroll, and then exploded. In the end, Austin's body also exploded.
After waking up again, Austin did not act rashly, but knelt down and thought.
This illusion is obviously related to this scroll, and he can neither see nor touch it, so what other way can he get out of it?
Thinking this way, Austin bypassed the parchment scroll, cast his gaze to other places in the room, and began to look for clues.
When looking for Austin, he discovered a clue - the desk enshrining the statue was placed in the middle of the room, with soft cushions placed around it, which was obviously unreasonable.
Austin stood up and walked aside at the risk of exploding his eyeballs, only to find that no matter which direction he walked, he could see the face of the statue, and the eyes on the octopus' head were always staring at him.
When he realized this, the prayer room changed again. The originally nearly square table was stretched infinitely, and Austin could only watch the statue of the god move away from him at an extremely fast speed.
Secretly thinking that something was wrong, he subconsciously started to run. Black crystals also covered his body, and his running speed increased to a higher level.
run? He was suddenly startled, as if there was something he had overlooked, but there was no time to delve into it now.
The room expanded so fast that Austin couldn't keep up with its speed, and the statue disappeared from his sight soon. But that's not the most terrible thing. The darkness behind Austin started to devour everything as if it came alive, and was behind him in the blink of an eye.
Austin only had time to curse before he was swallowed by the darkness.
He did not lose consciousness in the darkness, but his thinking was more active than ever before. All the events after crossing over from the extreme freezing point flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.
In the replays over and over again, Austin gradually developed a strange feeling, as if the experiences after his release were just a drama, and he was the actor who was pushed to the shelf, incompatible with everything around him but had no time to delve deeper.
puff--
He was spat out and returned to the prayer room.
Austin swore to Poseidon or Evil or whatever it was that he heard that strange sound - the sound of some creature spitting something out of its mouth.
Touching the wall of the prayer room, the soft touch at the beginning only made Austin feel sick. This is by no means the touch that decorative materials should have. He is now inside a living creature!
When did it start? Is it entering the prayer room? Or enter that corridor? Or was it already in the mouth of the monster the moment he entered the ruins?
Austin felt like he was going crazy. The weirdness and nausea continued to torture him. The veins on his temples were beating like a parasite that was about to explode at any time.
Parasite?
Beowulf and Doug have never spoken since entering the prayer room, especially Doug. Austin even suspected that he was dead, but Beowulf had clearly generated a black crystal just now to help him.
Beowulf?
What did that guy use to negotiate with me when we were in the Permafrost? Why would I agree to him?
Thousands of thoughts were tearing at Austin's head, making it impossible for Austin to concentrate on thinking about any issues.
"Stop thinking about it!" he roared, hitting the wall hard, but the soft wall couldn't give him the pain he needed at this moment.
"I said don't think about it!" Austin pulled out his pistol, aimed at his left hand and fired a shot. The bullet passed through the flesh and left a bullet hole, but there was no pain.
