Chapter 102 Ancient Temple

Chapter 102 Ancient Temple

"Tsk, having a good teacher is really enviable."

Hearing the female mage say this, both Ren and Angelica had a hint of envy in their voices.

What does it mean to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade?

This is it!

With one glance at this pistol, Ren knew the craftsmanship of the hill dwarves of the Tumgre Empire.

At this point in time, only they can produce such exquisite firearms.

This huge empire, which generally believed in the "tyrannical king", relied on the current emperor's iron-fisted centralization of power to take the lead in launching the Magical Industrial Revolution.

Although it will still take some time for the Tumgre Empire to produce a magic core that can be used for both military and civilian purposes, new pistols similar to those in the hands of female mages have begun to take shape.

Although the range of this pistol is nearly half that of a crossbow, its power at close range is one-third higher than that of an ordinary crossbow. In addition, the revolving magazine can load six rounds at a time and can be fired continuously.

.

The most important thing is that this kind of pistol is small in size, light in weight, fast to load, and can be used without too much training, so it is quickly favored by spellcasters.

Although such a pistol is expensive to make, real masters are not money-hungry and don't care about this little money at all.

There was an inexplicable meaning in Leolina's tone.

In the end, the paladin had no choice but to give up.

She inserted the pistol into the gun pouch on her waist and gently tapped her chin towards the two corpses of tiefling warriors on the ground, signaling Ren to clean up the battlefield.

"This is the emblem of the god of power and tyranny," Ren said solemnly, while glancing at the waist of the female mage.

A hammer was attached to the belt of these armors, and bells of various shapes and sizes were sewn on the leather straps of the armors.

It was a clown mask relief with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, looking down from the ceiling at everyone who entered and exited the door.

Weighing the keys in his hand, Renn turned his gaze to the direction the two came from.

According to Ren's considerations, if the temperature three meters away from the pool is just below zero, then the temperature next to the pool even reaches about 20 degrees below zero.

The two tiefling warriors came out of the north branch.

"In other words, there is probably a priest of [The Tyrannical King] behind this door?"

The chaotic sound of bells echoed in the silent room.

However, there was a broken battle flag with mottled blood stains stuck next to the marble door on the east side, while there were no signs around the marble door on the west side. However, the careful Angelica relied on her intuition and was still on top of the door.

A mark was found on the ceiling that was so shallow that it was almost invisible.

"The battle flag represents the [Lord of Strife]," Leolina said softly. "As we all know, the broken battle flag dripping with blood is the divine emblem of that crown prince, and this clown mask represents which crown prince, it is

I don’t need to say anything more.”

To deal with these skeletons, smashing is obviously more effective than chopping!

Standing by the pool, even with his physical condition, he felt a chill that penetrated his bones.

As for those Dharma dicks who have just embarked on the journey of being a mage?

Soon, the kind-hearted Ren found many trophies from the two corpses.

Leolina, who had the lowest constitution, couldn't help but shudder.

Turning to say something to the two women, Ren relied on his strong physique to walk towards the pool.

The female mage said thoughtfully.

The hollow eyes of these skeletons looked towards the door, as if they were wary of intruders.

Looking at this scene, Ren frowned. But neither he nor Leonina could tell the origin of the water in the pool with their knowledge of mysticism.

At the end of the two forked roads is the same marble door as the one on the north.

Relying on his own religious knowledge, Renn recognized the origin of this terrifying emblem at a glance.

As a member of the clergy, no one understands the difficulties of his colleagues better than the paladin.

This is the emblem of [Mr. Mysterious], the man whose main job is conspiracy and secrecy.

"These keys seem to be used to open doors elsewhere."

Angelica spoke out.

——Cut with the trend!

"Which side road should we take first?"

Ren stared at the skeletons in the armor in front of him. As he spoke, he took out the mace from the dimensional bag and held it in his hand.

Renn carefully threw a stone in, and saw that after the stone hit the black liquid in the pool, a layer of frost was quickly attached to the surface, and then it froze into a thin sheet under the surprised eyes of the paladin.

The stone powder sank to the bottom of the pond.

With the immortal torch in his hand, he could vaguely see the closed marble door not far away.

It was a ten-meter-square room, and the walls of the room were covered with sets of armor, ranging from worn leather armor to rusty full-body armor.

As the most knowledgeable mage among the three, Leolina can feel the uneasiness and tension in the temple brought about by ancient times and mystery.

"It's very possible."

"This... this absolutely cannot be the work of those two stingy and greedy mine owners!" Looking at the magnificent temple in front of her, the female mage couldn't help but murmur to herself, "This must be a remnant from ancient times.

remains!"

A skeleton wearing worn-out full-body armor was caught off guard, and his head was smashed dozens of feet away with a hammer from the paladin.

After getting off the elevator, they discovered that there was a branch road to the north, east and west of the elevator, and to the south of the elevator, there was a magnificent building, but it was too far away and there was no darkness/dim vision.

Ren and the others could only vaguely see the general outline of the building.

"Crunch..."

Soon, the three of them checked the forked roads on the east and west sides.

"Don't forget, there is another place." Renn shook his head slightly, "If we investigate there, we might be able to get some useful information."

Ren nodded solemnly.

Feeling the backlash from the Lightbringer, Renn turned his wrist slightly. With this force, the heavy mace seemed to lose its weight in an instant, and as Renn rotated, he drew a line in front of him.

A perfect arc.

"Be careful, I smell the rancid smell of undead creatures! Leolina, try not to use spells!"

Upon hearing the series of ringing bells, Ren's expression changed. He swung the Lightbringer and hit its gray-white skull with a hammer, performing a craniotomy on it.

Compared with the rough mine tunnels not far away, this building shows extremely superb construction skills.

When they entered the temple, everyone was amazed by the exquisite marble columns scattered around and the arc-shaped dome above.

The female mage, whose face turned pale from the cold, said in a trembling voice.

"Let's briefly explore this area first, and then discuss the next plan."

The ranger lady held the compound longbow and asked Ren.

"You two stay away from here, I'll take a closer look."

"Ren, since there may be a priest of [The Tyrannical King] behind this door, then, are there other two priests of His Majesty in the other three branches?"

Her small pistol comes from the Tumgre Empire, the main place of worship of this Crown.

"Would you like to see what these two guys have on them?"

"Dingle bell——"

Ren thought for a while and made a decision quickly.

However, facing this scene, the expressions of the three Rennes were not very good, because in sharp contrast with the gray and blood-stained armor on the wall, there were snow-white skeletons in the armor.

Among these skeletons are humans, dwarves and orcs.

Under the light of the torch, the three Rennes could see clearly the scene behind the gate.

"Ren, be careful."

The liquid in the pool was dark and viscous, exuding an ominous and evil aura.

Renn carefully walked to the pool and looked into the pool.

When the three of them approached, they discovered that there was a simple emblem carved on the closed marble door.

The three of them crossed over the corpse, holding torches, and walked towards the direction from which the tiefling warriors had just come.

Leaving this mysterious and ominous temple, the three of them headed straight for the northernmost fork.

With a heartbreaking sound, after using the key to unlock the door, Renn pushed the heavy marble door open with force.

In addition to their equipment, such as mail shirts, crafted greataxes, composite longbows, and two kettles of arrows, the paladins also found a bunch of bone keys, and less than 50 golden eagle coins.

This evil organization was formed by priests under the command of [The Tyrannical King], [The God of Strife] and [Mr. Mysterious]. Therefore, it is not unusual for these evil camp priests to appear in the home of this organization.

Without getting too close, the three of them could sense the cold aura emanating from it.

——Jumping chop!

——Powerful attack!

Before the remaining ones could surround them, Ren used his strength to leap behind the skeletons, and hit the head of the second skeleton with a hammer.

What appeared in front of Ren and the others was a magnificent temple.

On the stone door, a large black hand covered with ferocious veins was carved using crude techniques. In the big hand, there was a gray-white bone scepter.

Let’s save enough money to buy spell scrolls for learning spells first and then talk about this!

"Ren, this water is a little weird..."

"Damn it! Fight quickly! Try to kill all these guys before reinforcements come in!"

"Good teacher? Maybe."

Pale soul flames emerged from the eye sockets of each skeleton. They stood up against the wall and took off the maces from their waists.

Along the way, Ren also told her about information about the Ebony Society.

When the three Rennes approached, the ground paved with black marble tiles even reflected the light of the torches.

Miss Ranger and the beautiful mage looked at each other, and in tacit agreement, while retreating to a safe distance, they each bent their bows and nocked arrows, loaded their bullets, and were ready to support at any time.

But he had a hunch in his heart that eventually, they might come here again.

When the three of them walked out of the side road and arrived in front of the building, they couldn't help but stop.

However, what attracted the attention of Ren and his team the most was the pool of black liquid placed in the center of the temple.

"What on earth is this?"

The skull rolled on the ground several times, and was finally crushed to pieces by a silver-gray high boot.

Under the joint attack of the three Rennes, these dozen skeletons only lasted for less than a minute before they all turned into bones and dregs on the ground.

Although the battle ended extremely quickly, the faces of Ren and others became more solemn.

Because the other party's reinforcements are coming.

I'm feeling dizzy... Let me calm down and eat something. The second chapter will be posted around ten o'clock.
