"Since that's the case, I can only go down and take a look."
Enzo looked at the dark dry well, stroked his chin, and said, "Dias, you can continue patrolling with your guards, you don't need you here anymore."
"As for orders, master." Dias said in a deep voice.
Then, the unconscious servant was carried away, and Dias took his guards away from the small garden.
After everyone was away, Enzo tidied up his clothes and jumped into the dry well. This dry well had been abandoned for many years, with a depth of about dozens of meters. The water source inside had long dried up and spider webs were everywhere around.
"Light!"
After falling into the bottom of the well, Enzo pointed his fingers, and a ray of light suddenly dispelled the darkness, and the surrounding scene also revealed. The air was filled with dampness, and the worn-out well wall was covered with moss, and a few mice were drilled by their feet.
"That resentful soul should be hiding here."
Enzo narrowed his eyes and looked around. The space in the dry well was small. Even if the resentful soul had the ability to hide his breath, he had nowhere to hide.
call!
At this moment, a hint of coldness appeared around.
Enzo's heart moved, and a scream sounded in his ears. He turned around and saw a black shadow drilling out of the well wall. His distorted form like a fog was emitting a strong resentment.
"Hmph!" Enzo's eyes narrowed slightly with a cold snorted.
The silver ring on the fingertips emitted a ray of light, like a holy light that purified all evil. As soon as the resentful soul touched it, it emitted a shrill wail, and the misted body ignited a white flame.
"Woooooooooooo...wizard!"
The resentful soul wailed in pain, and a trace of fear rose in his hideous and distorted face. After discovering the identity of the enemy, he decisively turned his body and ran away, throwing away a large piece of white flames all over his body.
brush!
The atomized body drilled into the well wall, and in a blink of an eye the figure of the resentful soul disappeared.
"Escape?" Enzo frowned, looking in the direction of the resentful soul's escape, and suddenly found that there was a hidden stone door on the wall in the dry well, which was hard to detect without looking carefully.
"What's this?"
Enzo's eyes moved, and a hint of interest arose in his heart. His unintentional decision seemed to have discovered some secrets. The resentful soul that could only hide his breath and avoid the scanning of the chip seemed to be related to what was behind the stone gate.
Taking a step forward, Enzo tried to push open the stone door.
However, he tried a lot of effort, but the stone door in front of him did not move at all. After careful inspection, he found that the stone door had been completely sealed and it would be difficult to open it unless it was destroyed by violent means.
"If you use a dark fire extinguishing ball, you will definitely explode this stone gate."
Enzo hesitated for a moment and shook his head and said, "However, if you do that, the power of the explosion will spread around, which may cause the entire dry well to collapse and even destroy the underground foundation of the manor."
After denying violent destruction in his heart, Enzo thought in his heart.
"It's better to be as low-key as possible." There is something hidden inside the stone gate yet. It causes too much noise and may attract others' spy, so Enzo decided to use another method to enter it.
"The soul leaves the body!"
He took a deep breath, his body gradually relaxed, and a transparent phantom floated out quickly.
"That's all." The body had fallen into a state of static. Enzo looked back, then controlled his spirit and plunged into the stone door ahead.
Walking through the solid stone door, there is a pitch-black passage ahead.
"It seems that there are indeed some secrets hidden in this dry well!" Enzo's heart moved and kept floating along the passage. After floating for a distance, a light finally appeared in front of him.
At the end of the passage is a stone chamber.
In the four corners of the stone chamber, four circular pillars are supported. There is a statue in the center. There are three black candles in front of the statue. Two of them have long burned out, but only one in the middle is still swaying a flame.
The light came from there!
"What is this?" Enzo narrowed his eyes and looked at the statue worshipped in the stone chamber.
It was a stone sculpture with a human woman on the upper body and a spider on the lower body. Her face was covered with a veil, making people unable to see her face. Only two black gems were inlaid with eyes.
"Goddess of Night!"
Enzo searched for information about the statue in his mind, and suddenly thought of a name, and a solemn expression suddenly appeared on his face.
The legendary ancient god was once the real master of the world before the rise of wizard civilization. Enzo had read the information about the goddess of night in the library. It is said that it was a neutral god with a clergyman, and his priesthood was [Night] and [Silence]. The well-known form of the world is half human and half spider.
After the rise of the wizard clan, God has long since withdrawn from the stage of history!
In today's wizard world, pursuing truth and its own strength is the right way. Belief in gods is strictly prohibited. In secular kingdoms, some foolish people who worship God occasionally appear. Once discovered, they will be severely punished by wizards.
"Is the former owner of the manor actually a believer of the goddess of night?"
Enzo's eyes were solemn. As a wizard, he had never been touched by God. Although those who were arrogant and were once the darlings of this world, they were still defeated by the wizard civilization in the end.
"Kneel down, wizard!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and the resentful soul appeared in the air and said sternly, ": In front of the noble goddess of night, mortals must learn to be humble!"
"Hmph! He is really a loyal believer."
Enzo snorted disdainfully. The resentful soul was the former owner of the manor. Even though he was dead, he still insisted on his belief in the goddess. Perhaps this is also the reason why he can retain some of his reason in the resentful soul.
Mortals who only worship faith to God will also gain certain benefits.
It is precisely because of this that even though the wizard civilization has ruled the world for many years, the flame of ordinary beliefs is still immortal. Perhaps for some weak people, it is always easier to only shake their tails and beg for mercy to gain benefits from God than to pursue their own strength.
"What a pity, I'm a wizard!"
Enzo's eyes were firm and unmoved by the resentful soul's resentment. His mind condensed, and his invisible mental power spread around him, and then condensed into a silver needle, deeply piercing the body of the resentful soul.
"Soul Thorn!"
The resentful soul let out a shrill scream, the wailing sound made people shudder, and his misty body kept twisting, as if it was about to break and explode.
"Damn wizard, the believer who dares to hurt the goddess!"
"You will pay the price for this... The darkness of the eternal night has come to the world, and the sleeping earth is in silence, the noble goddess of the night! Your humble believer prays to you, may you give endless power and drive away all light..."
The resentful soul began to pray while screaming.
The statue of the goddess of night in the stone house seemed to hear some inspiration. The eyes of the black gem flashed, and the endless darkness around it surged up like a tide, as if it was about to devour everything.
