Lumian directly activated the black mark on his right shoulder, "teleported" to the invisible cemetery, and "teleported" to the entrance of the underground mausoleum.
This place seems to be built like the mouth of some kind of giant beast, with gray-white stone steps extending from the mouth to the depths of the dark esophagus.
Lumian suspected that Julie had entered the underground mausoleum.
No matter what the Witch Sect's plan is, it will inevitably inevitably get around "0-01" sealed deep in the underground mausoleum!
Lumian was able to distinguish the smell in the entrance area. He only smelled the smell of grass, trees and soil after rain, but did not notice the scent left by Julie.
At the same time, he also examined the gray-white stone steps at the bottom that were submerged in darkness, looking for fresh footprints - there had just been lightning and thunder and a burst of rain.
"There is no trace of Julie's visit..." Lumian turned his body sideways and turned into a blazing white flame spear, which swung across a distance of hundreds of meters and landed on the side of the Church of Knowledge.
He did not take a detour, opened the nearest stained glass window, jumped into the church, and ran up to Heraberg, who was wearing a plain white robe with brass threads.
"Your Majesty the Archbishop, do you know which room Salister lives in?" Lumian's breath was still even, but his speech was quite fast.
Archbishop Heraberg of Morola smiled and replied:
"The third floor, the room closest to the cemetery and where you can see the entrance to the mausoleum."
Lumian was stunned for a moment:
Well, you all know...
He didn't waste any time and asked more questions. His body ignited with blazing white flames again, and he dragged out his brilliant light tail and flew into the stairs with a spear-throwing attitude.
After several twists and turns, Lumian came to the room of the "witch" Sallysette.
He grasped the brass handle with his fingers, twisted it slightly, and pushed open the wooden door.
The room was very clean, with no extraneous things, just a single bed, a desk, a chair and a shelf for books and miscellaneous items, showing a monastic-like sense of austerity.
"Sure enough, Sallysette is also missing..." Lumian verified his judgment.
He didn't enter the room immediately. He felt that it was filled with invisible cobwebs carrying pathogens, like the nest of a poisonous spider.
While Lumian was preparing to set fire to those things that were invisible to the naked eye, he made further observations.
He discovered that Sallysette, perhaps in order to act as an experimenter who had suffered some kind of contamination, did not put anything other than necessities in the room. At this time, as she disappeared, even the black burqa she changed was gone.
Everywhere is empty, and the most eye-catching thing is a mirror placed near the window area of the desk.
That mirror is a very common dressing mirror, so it is reasonable for it to appear in a "witch"'s room.
But Lumian made some associations with this:
"Salister left through the mirror world?
"The law enforcement teams come in and out in groups. It is unlikely that she would betray the Church of Knowledge and walk out of the church alone..."
"She and Julie will meet somewhere in the Mirror World?
"Julie, did Sallysette rely on the mirror world to go to the underground mausoleum, so there is no trace in the entrance area of the underground mausoleum?"
Thinking of this, a network of thoughts composed of various information and different thoughts once again appeared in Lumian's mind.
He quickly made a guess:
"Salister patrolled the underground mausoleum as an experimenter several times before and changed the puppets. Was it to place mirrors at different key nodes or to obtain the coordinates of mirror-like objects?
"When I used the 'Mirror Buckle' before, I couldn't determine which mirrors were in the underground tomb, and it was difficult to tell whether they contained hidden dangers...
"This is the preparation work of the Witch Sect. Now that Sallysette has mastered the world composed of mirrors in the underground mausoleum, can she officially take action?
“Why not start right after she finishes her last shift?
"How many days do I need to make other preparations?"
Thoughts were rushing, Lumian lowered his voice and said:
"Thermipolos, do you think I should go to the underground tomb now, or continue studying and hope that Julie and Sallysette can't achieve their goals?"
Without waiting for Thermipolos to respond, Lumian smiled and said:
"I won't pin my hopes on others' own failure."
He has already made his decision.
That is to go to the underground mausoleum to destroy and stop the Witch Sect's actions, and try to delay it for a few more days!
The only problem was that he had to be blindfolded when he got to the underground tomb, so he couldn't read books and continue studying in his free time.
I wonder if there is a way to convert words into sounds... Aurore's wizard notes have recorded relevant ideas and preliminary experimental results. Unfortunately, I am not a "wizard"... Lumian just sighed in his heart when he heard
Termipolos, who had not spoken for a long time, made a majestic voice:
"That's very dangerous."
You really answered me... Is this guy's answer this time a good intention, or is there a conspiracy? He just pointed out the dangers, and did not give any strong advice... No matter, whether Thermipolos objected to my going, or planned to
You can confuse me, I will do it... Lumian quickly calmed down his mind, smiled and said:
"Perhaps both of us will become puppets of '0-01'."
"Not including me." Thermipolos responded with a strong voice.
Really? Lumian transformed into a flame spear again and quickly returned to the church hall.
He came to Heraberg, took out three books, smiled and said:
"Your Majesty the Archbishop, I still have two and a half books to read. Can you convert the remaining knowledge into audio information so that I can study while exploring the underground tomb?"
The wrinkles on Heraberg's face gradually unfolded, and his eyebrows became gentler:
"Okay, okay, you just need this kind of learning attitude."
He took out a brass plate and took the book from Lumian's hand.
In his amber eyes, countless symbols and words suddenly formed a whirlpool, spinning.
Lumian saw a little glimmer of light rising from the three books. They were densely packed and gathered into rivers, pouring into the brass sheets.
What kind of secret technique is this... Lumian was a little stunned when he saw it.
Before coming to Lundburg, he deliberately collected detailed information about the Church of Knowledge from various sources, including some information about the "Reader" path.
As far as he knew, Sequence 5 of the "Reader" path was called "Secret Master" and could invent and create some unique spells on its own.
Soon, those shimmers disappeared, the brass sheets became much moister, and the symbols and patterns on the surface became more three-dimensional.
With two snaps, Heraberg broke off two corners from the brass sheet and kneaded them into a straight shape.
Lumian opened his mouth little by little:
Without the aid of flame, I think it would be quite difficult to break off two pieces of brass with just two hands, let alone pinch them like plasticine with your fingers...
Your Excellency the Archbishop, are all of your "Reader" paths so violent, or are you special as a puppet? Your two fingers can grind my bones into powder...
Or is this a side effect of the secret technique?
"Put it into your ears. The opening incantation is the ancient Hermetic word 'listen'. I know you only know this language and you haven't mastered the Giant and Elvish languages well. The closing incantation is 'stop'."
"Heraberg handed Lumian the brass sheet and two straight brass earplugs.
Lumian subconsciously argued:
"I also understand Hermetic."
He understood that Archbishop Heraberg was referring to those languages that could leverage supernatural powers.
"Hermes?" Herabeg laughed.
Lumian felt contempt for Hermes from his laughter and expression.
Time was running out, so Lumian put on a brass earplug without asking any more questions. After putting away the rest of his belongings, he immediately transformed into a blazing white flame spear and flew underground from the open stained glass door.
The entrance area of the mausoleum.
Lumian calmed down his breathing and took out a carbide lamp and white bandage from the "traveler's bag".
After lighting the carbide lamp, he wrapped the bandage around his head and blindfolded his eyes.
Lumian's eyes gradually darkened and he couldn't see anything.
For "hunters" who rely heavily on their eyes, this is definitely not a good experience.
Lumian fumbled to lift the carbide lamp and carefully walked down the gray and white stone steps in the entrance area step by step.
He struggled to maintain his balance, fearing that he would miss the mark and roll like a wheel into the underground mausoleum.
It wasn't that he was afraid of getting hurt, but that he was afraid of throwing out the carbide lamp he was holding.
"It feels really bad to be blind..." Lumian muttered while constructing a three-dimensional map in his mind.
Most of the content of the map comes from the sealed information of "0-01" and the book "Construction Examples of Underground Tombs", and a small part comes from the scenes in the nightmares of the past two days.
Relying on the map in his mind and his super sense of hearing, smell, and body control, Lumian gradually adapted to the darkness of his vision and descended more and more steadily.
Finally, he finished walking up the stairs and officially entered the underground mausoleum.
He felt the darkness around him surge in like a tide, eroding his skin, bringing a cold chill and a slow loss of vitality.
Almost at the same time, the palm of his right hand became cold.
The abnormality of the unstoppable loss of vitality disappeared.
"Has the mark of the 'Underworld Man' been activated?" Lumian muttered to himself thoughtfully, "Under the current circumstances, even if I didn't bring a lighted carbide lamp, I probably wouldn't be in the mausoleum.
Something happened in the dark, hey, when I meet Julie and the others later, I can try to use the 'Hunter' ability to influence flames to directly extinguish their lanterns, but Julie has something special, and Sallysette probably also has it, so they may not be very good at it.
Easily swallowed by darkness..."
Lumian, who was blindfolded, turned around and used the semi-excited black mark on his right shoulder to sense where the head of "Abscess Severed Hand" was.
He planned to find this thing first, and then stop Julie and Sallysette.
At that time, he can throw the "abscessed severed hand" corpses stored separately together to see what changes will occur and give the enemies a "surprise".
Perhaps because they were both in the underground mausoleum, Lumian quickly sensed the call of Brother Severed Hand's corpse and that special connection.
