Chapter 146 Encountering the Raven

The internal space of this temple, which is mainly built in the mountain, is very large. One hundred and eighty-two 50- to 60-meter-high pillars are connected to the dome. Each pillar is carved with reliefs with different contents, which seems to be telling some story.
, but no one had time to observe these things. In the deepest part of the temple stands a statue of a god that is forty or fifty meters high. The material of the statue does not seem to be like ordinary stone, because the whole statue is integrated, but each one is
The colors of the parts are different. The main body of the statue is bluish-white like the undead skin of Lily and Rhine. The clothes on the body are as dark as the night. The silver hair and purple eyes are as well as the lifelike expression of the statue.
, if you don’t observe carefully, you might think that this statue is alive!
Although everyone successfully entered the temple, what was unexpected was that there were no members of the Holy Book of the Dead in the temple. After running around the temple, they did not find any other passages except the entrance. Even Ollie was flying on the statue.
I went up and looked again, but found nothing.
"Ah~ Could it be that this is just a trap for us to waste time?" Lan rubbed his temples with a headache. In this situation, even a minute of delay may cost the lives of his companions who are fighting. Time
There really aren't many left.
Nieku carefully observed the statue and the huge pedestal on which the statue was placed, as well as the brazier pillars on the left and right, and said: "No, I think this is the lair of the Book of the Dead - take a closer look at the base of the statue.
!”
Lan observed it carefully and said in surprise: "It seems... there are some gaps? Is the secret door here?"
"It should be, but where is the mechanism!" Garudo irritatedly slashed at the base of the statue with his sword. However, after sparks flew, the sword blade only left a faint mark on the base.
imprint.
"Why don't we just blow it open!" Jinx held up the bomb and wanted to forcefully blast the secret door open, but Nieku stopped her: "No, I don't recommend doing this. First of all, the materials used in this base
It seems to be very hard. It’s unclear whether it can explode. If it does explode, the damage to the base will cause the statue to collapse, and even the entire temple will be in danger of collapse. We are mainly here to save people, not to fight.
The Book of the Dead will perish together!"
"Then according to what you said, wouldn't we have to waste a lot of time looking for the agency?" Jacks curled his lips. His thoughts were surprisingly the same as Jinx's - blast it!
Nieku shook his head and observed the surroundings as if talking to himself: "Generally speaking... the mechanism will definitely be in a conspicuous position that looks inconspicuous. This will not only prevent people from finding the mechanism, but also make it convenient for themselves.
Turn on...who of you has fire?"
"Fire?" Lan glanced at Kongkong and asked, "What do you want fire for?"
"Light those two braziers." Nieku pointed to the two braziers next to the statue and said, "There is still fuel left in those two braziers. They are obviously often used. I don't think the lighting here only relies on these two.
A brazier will do the trick.
The temple is very dark. The only light comes from the windows and doors outside the mountain. Even if the two braziers are lit, it will not illuminate the temple. So in addition to lighting, the two braziers
The function is worthy of consideration.
Kong Kong flew to the brazier and spit out a cyan fireball. The fireball burned quickly after touching the fuel in the brazier. After both braziers were lit up, the secret door on the base remained motionless.
"It seems that these two braziers are not mechanisms..." Just when everyone, including Nieku, was disappointed, Aisela suddenly spoke weakly: "Wait... wait... it seems to be moving.
…”
"Huh?" Everyone looked over, and sure enough, the secret door did tremble a little. After a while, with a low friction sound, the secret door finally opened slowly...
Everyone had no time to be surprised and rushed in. Behind the secret door was a deep staircase going downwards. There was no lighting around, but fortunately, Kongkong, this colorful little dragon, was born with the ability to shine, so it could still illuminate the surrounding roads.
"What is the principle of the brazier just now?" Jacks seemed a little puzzled. Because fighting spirit and magic cannot be used here, it is obvious that the mechanism just now is not caused by magic. Nieku thought for a while and said to Jacks:
"As for the principle... it should be by heating gas to drive the mechanism, right? My dwarf teacher taught me the principle of this kind of mechanism that can be activated without magic. In addition to this, there are also containers filled with liquid that are connected at both ends as a mechanism.
...Anyway, it’s very troublesome. I didn’t study this specifically at the time, I just heard about it.”
"Huh? That sounds pretty awesome!" Lan couldn't help but take another look at Nieku. This guy who wears a black windbreaker and a beak mask all day long looks a little nervous. He often comes up with some weird things. Every time
He was able to solve the crisis every time, which made Lan marvel, "Does an undead hunter need to be able to do so many things?"
Neku smiled bitterly and said: "Undead hunter and so on... My official job is actually a doctor. I hunt the rebellious undead just because I want to protect the living."
"Doctor?!" Lan looked at Nieku strangely, but it was indeed Nieku who treated Ollie's wounds, but everyone had forgotten this because of her endless supply of strange props.
After running down for four or five minutes, I finally saw the end of the long staircase. At the end of the staircase was an empty hall. In the center of the hall stood a statue with a base half-kneeling on the ground holding a round tray.
There was a light blue fire burning inside, bringing a glimmer of light to the hall.
"Three exits, what should we do?" Garudo frowned and looked at the passages in front and on the left and right, and couldn't help complaining in his heart - is there a trap behind the secret door? If this continues, it will waste too much time! "Let's act separately.
Bar?"
"No, we will definitely be defeated one by one if we act separately." Lan did not agree with Garudo's view, "Let's go straight forward. We don't have so much time to find a way. What should come will always come."
Just as everyone was about to move forward, the doors on the left and right suddenly disappeared, and a man in white clothes and a mask appeared in front of the door directly in front: "There are so many beautiful guests in this boring place... My collection."
It has not been added for a long time. It seems that I finally have the opportunity to expand it today..."
"This guy is..." Lan recalled the information he got from Sophia, and suddenly thought of the information about the person in front of him - "that murderous raven!"
"I prefer you to call me - Collector Raven." The corner of Raven's mouth raised a cruel smile, "Then... welcome to my world!"
The raven took a step forward, and the white powder on his body suddenly floated away, blocking everyone's sight. Without saying a word, Jacks immediately fired a musket, but it didn't seem to hit the raven.
"Everyone, be careful! Don't get close to that area, and don't inhale the powder!" Lan also immediately asked Kong Kong to breathe dragon's breath into the white mist, but the white powder did not disappear, but became more intense.
"Guess where I am?" The raven's hateful voice sounded, and the white fog dissipated instantly, but ten ravens appeared in front of everyone!
"Ten people...does it happen to be one for each person?" Garudo held the sword tightly and said with a sneer. "Let's go together?"
"No, obviously this is just an illusion. The other party wants to delay our trip..." Lan frowned and ordered the black bird sitting on her shoulder, "Xuanjiu! It's up to you!"
The mercenaries of the Dragon Spear immediately covered their ears, and the others immediately covered their ears when they realized something was wrong. Then a sharp sound sounded from the fist-sized bird's mouth, which was almost painful even if they covered their ears.
The sound of eardrum piercing also made everyone almost vomit blood...
The raven on the other side also turned pale, and then Lan immediately noticed that nine of the figures had become a little blurry. Kong Kong, who was connected to Lan's mind, immediately rushed forward and spit a breath of dragon's breath on the raven's mask!
It turns out that although the little bird named Xuanjiu on Lan's shoulder has no direct combat ability, the special sonic attack it emits can affect the human spirit and even the soul. Illusion is simply a mental attack, so facing
The best way to attack mentally is to interfere with the enemy's spirit, thereby breaking the illusion.
Peng... To Lan's expectation, not only the nine clones, but also the clone attacked by Kong Kong turned into white mist and dissipated! Immediately afterwards, the entire space was shattered, and the surrounding area suddenly became a more even-looking space than before.
A spacious secret room hall!
"Hehehehe... Is the place you are in now an illusion or reality? Hahahahaha!"
In the deepest part of the temple, Lily was lying on the stone slab with her eyes tightly closed. The blood lines on her body and the blood in the grooves on the stone slab emitted a strange red light. One-half of the four pitch-black pillars had turned into
If the pillar turns red, you don’t need to think about it to know that when the pillar turns completely red, it is the moment when the undead goddess is reborn.
"My God..." The Holy Lord, who was in ragged clothes and looked very embarrassed, lay at the feet of the mysterious woman, "I failed to stop those who tried to prevent your arrival..."
The mysterious woman smiled softly and said slowly: "No problem, my most loyal believer, the advent is irreversible. The struggle of those ants is just to add some entertainment programs for me. The ceremony has begun, and the next step is to
It’s up to you to execute it…”
"We will definitely welcome the coming of our Lord!" Looking at the Holy Lord kneeling at her feet, the mysterious woman smiled softly, then casually created a black crack and disappeared into the crack...
Chapter completed!
