The door finally opened completely, and everything in the inner hall came into view... There was a vague blood-colored mist in the air, and naturally it also smelled of blood.
The place where the gods live is not bright, and even looks gloomy. Intertwined roots can be seen on the walls, floors, and even pillars of the inner hall.
They are like blood vessels that supply blood, beating very regularly... As long as you look a little more carefully, you will find that the source of these roots actually comes from the blindfolded woman sitting upright.
It's her feet!
Her feet were like tree roots, rooted to the floor.
At this moment, when she saw the god, Mayfair almost knelt on the ground. She even knelt down, her eyes filled with too much information.
Awe, shock, confusion...fear.
"She doesn't seem to know you are coming." Boss Luo said calmly at this time.
I don’t know why it’s [you] and not [us]... Mayfair didn’t even think carefully about whether this sentence was inappropriate. He just opened his mouth and subconsciously said: "I... I don’t seem to feel the goddess’s breath of life."
Boss Luo thought for a while and said, "You said you saw the conversation between Captain Malik and the monster in the inner hall before?"
"I'm sure!" Mayfair nodded, "But it doesn't seem to be here now?"
Luo Qiu then asked: "Miss Mayfair, you said it was because you saw the monster pretending to be a god, and then swallowed the sacrifice you sent up the mountain before... Can you tell me the specific situation of what you saw?
. Logically speaking, if there is nothing wrong, you shouldn’t come to the temple, right?”
Mayfair looked at the motionless female god sitting above in fear, and nodded hesitantly: "Yes, except for important days, people from the tribe are not allowed to enter the temple... But I actually did it before
He is a trainee of the Temple Guard."
"Trainee?"
"I'm sorry, I never told you before." Mayfair nodded and said: "At the beginning, I was sent to the temple as a trainee and have been receiving training. During that time, I have been living in the temple... Of course
, as a trainee, I am not allowed to enter many places and can only move within a limited range."
"Actually, I have always followed the rules during that time. In addition to completing the training tasks every day, I would go back to the room and never wander around... I will soon complete the training tasks and become an official member of the guard team.
This is a very high honor in the tribe, and because of this, I am often so excited that I can’t sleep in the days nearing the end of training.”
Mayfair smiled bitterly at this time: "Maybe I was really too excited at the time... The day before the training ended, I couldn't sleep no matter what. All I could think about was finishing the training the next day and then being promoted to an official position.
I don’t know what happened to the team members, but all I wanted to do was go outside for a walk. I thought about it, it’s been a while since I went up the mountain, but I haven’t been to many places yet..."
"So..." Boss Luo smiled and said, "Just before the last day, you broke the rules you have always followed?"
"I clearly know that as long as the second day is over, I can patrol other places in the temple openly." Mayfair sighed: "But I couldn't restrain myself at that time.
The rebellious impulse...you know? I walked alone in those places that have always been forbidden to enter. In the dark night, there was a unique charm. I think this feeling came after I became an official team member.
, I will never feel it again. Gradually, I unknowingly avoided the patrolling guards, and even went deeper and deeper, and finally came to the inner hall."
"I saw the light, which was the light coming from this door." Mayfair said with a pale face at this time: "I knew this was the place where the gods lived. At that time, I wanted to leave right away... But right here
At the same time, I heard screams! Then, a figure suddenly fell out from the door! "
At this time, Mayfair covered his face with his hands, only revealing his eyes that were widened between his fingers, "She is covered in blood. I recognize this child! She is the child I sent to the mountain during my training.
...I even talked to her! We even encouraged each other...She, Meliv, she is my good friend! She saw me, she even reached out to me, she wanted me to save her
!But I didn’t. I was stunned at the time. My brain went blank and my strength seemed to be drained. I could only look at Meilifu motionlessly like a stone. She was being dragged bit by bit by something.
I went in, and then there was the sound of her screaming... and finally there was no sound. I ran away and fled back to my room desperately."
"the next day?"
Mayfair said: "The next day, I did not participate in the final training and left the temple privately... They thought that I had given up on the test, and I was even imprisoned by the tribe for leaving privately. I told them that I was in
The temple saw everything, but they didn’t believe me, no one believed me. I was imprisoned all the time... Then suddenly one day, the village chief came to me and told me that I was chosen by the temple to become
New sacrifice..."
She breathed a sigh of relief, "I know that no matter what I say, no one will believe it... How could they believe that the god they have always been in awe of is actually a man-eating demon? Everyone has always thought that being elected became the
It is the highest honor for a sacrifice to enter a temple. We never regard becoming a sacrifice as a terrible thing. Because we all know that the so-called sacrifice is a gift from the gods to us. We can
Therefore, I entered the kingdom of gods, which is the ideal homeland of our elves. But how could I have thought of it, thought of... it was not the case at all. I gave up on proving myself, and kept silently waiting for the opportunity, and finally when I was about to be sent to the temple
The day before yesterday, which is what I have been experiencing [today], I found an opportunity, escaped from the village, and then escaped into the [forest]... You also know what happened after that."
"So you didn't enter the inner hall and see everything clearly." Boss Luo said: "Then when you entered the door just now, how could you be sure that she was your god."
"Because I have seen it." Mayfair said sternly: "We were born and grew up... We have always gone up the mountain to worship during festivals, and the gods will appear to pray for us, so we have all seen the appearance of the gods...
...Now, seeing her like this is enough proof! A monster must have appeared, it has sneaked in here, and even made the gods look like this, and then pretended to be her! Captain Malik must also know this
This is because he is looking for fresh food for the monster! These roots must be the curse of the monster on the gods... No, I want to rescue her!"
With that said, Mayfair quickly walked towards the blindfolded woman who was sitting upright. She even came to the blindfolded woman easily and reached out to grab the woman's palm.
"There is warmth...the gods are not dead!" Mayfair suddenly shouted in surprise.
As she said that, she bent down and planned to take the female spirit out of the chair. But at this moment, she seemed to have discovered something, and she screamed again.
In fact, Mayfair was so frightened that she backed away. Finally, she tripped over a root on the ground and fell directly to the ground... She looked at the god on the chair in horror. Because of her move, the god's body was no longer there.
Dignified, but crooked.
What did she see?
What she saw was the god's back...and there were dense fibrous roots growing on her back!
At this moment, the blindfolded woman, who had fallen over, suddenly had the golden strip of cloth on her face slipping down... She saw the blindfolded eyes.
Blood red, with no pupils... and the body of the sitting female god suddenly came to life. She suddenly stretched out her hand, and her palms suddenly turned into tentacles that stretched rapidly, and she was immediately entangled.
stand up!
Mayfair was shocked and struggled desperately... She turned around in horror, only to see that Boss Luo behind her had been completely entangled by the fibrous roots on the ground... and became a huge cocoon!
Mayfair was even more frightened. Her neck was completely strangled by fibrous roots, almost suffocating her. She couldn't say anything and might be strangled to death like this.
However, the contraction of the fibrous roots stopped unconsciously... Her breathing was still difficult, but she could clearly feel that the fibrous roots had really stopped moving.
"Looks like a little mouse ran in."
She heard the voice speaking... She heard it in an instant. This voice was the voice talking to Captain Macri: that monster pretending to be a god!
Mayfair looked for the sound and saw a figure slowly walking out of a door behind the god's chair.
Male...a man with slightly pale skin and extremely well-groomed appearance.
He walked out slowly, even wiping his lips with a handkerchief as if cleaning up after finishing a meal.
"Demon...monster..." The voice came out of Miss Elf's mouth with difficulty.
"Monster?" The man folded the handkerchief for wiping his mouth and hung it on his chest pocket. He opened his hands slightly and said calmly: "Look at me like this...compared to the person in front of you.
Under the Temple of the Goddess, who is more like a monster?"
"It must be you! It's you who cursed the gods! It's you who made the gods become like this!" Mayfair was furious: "It's you who have been eating my people!"
"I remember your smell." The man smiled slowly and said, "You must be the child standing outside the door that night...I heard from Malik that after you came down from the mountain, you went around talking to the elves of the tribe,
What you saw. I have no choice but to let you become the chosen one. I heard that you have escaped, why do you want to come back? Isn't it good to leave... Of course, I don't mind if you send it yourself
Come to the door."
While speaking, the man slowly walked up to Mayfair. He stretched out his hand to touch Mayfair's cheek, smiled and said: "I guess you taste good, but it's a pity that I have just eaten. Although the taste is
Not much...but it doesn’t matter, we can wait for the next meal.”
"You...don't touch..."
Before Mayfair could finish her words, the fibrous roots that entangled her climbed up in an instant and directly sealed her mouth.
Only then did the man take a look at the other person in the inner hall... Behind Mayfair, Boss Luo, who had already been entangled into a big cocoon.
He walked over slowly, smiled and said: "I know what I'm going to eat for the next meal, but I don't know what I'm going to eat for the next meal... It's really exciting. This kind of connection is about to be revealed. I don't know what it is."
a feeling of."
Mayfair struggled desperately, his eyes filled with eagerness.
The man had already walked in front of Boss Luo's big cocoon...but at this moment he suddenly turned around, smiled slightly and said: "By the way, I forgot to tell you, this god of yours was actually dug out by me from the Quiet Forest at the foot of the mountain.
...It is the monster in your mouth."
Mayfair didn't believe it, but what she saw in front of her made her disbelieve the dignified god. Her face and body had turned into rough tree bark!
"It's quite unexpected." The man's eyes were full of teasing: "Right?"
In this way, he no longer paid attention to Mayfair at this time, and instead faced the big cocoon in front of him... The roots on the big cocoon loosened little by little, and the man's eyes even showed a strong look of expectation.
"What is it? Is it a young and beautiful child? Or a masculine and righteous warrior..." The man narrowed his eyes: "Or is it a panicked lost lamb?"
Finally, the roots were untied, and the man could clearly see the appearance of the captured prey.
A young man with black hair, black eyes, and a calm face: Boss Luo just stood like this, not looking at all panicked because he was trapped.
While the man was sizing him up, he was also sizing up this mysterious man.
Although it was a bit unexpected, the man in the inner hall of the temple looked sideways at this moment. After a while, he slightly frowned and said: "You...are a servant?"
"Don't you know me?" Boss Luo smiled and said, "We have met...Mr. Vali."
Mr. Valli.
The man who appeared in the inner hall of the temple was clearly the owner of the castle... one of the heirs of the Zmich family, Vali Zmich!
…
"Well, you are indeed a Servant." The man...Mr. Vali in front of him nodded lightly: "However, although you are a Servant, I am not the Mr. Vali you have met."
Boss Luo asked curiously: "Oh? Could it be that there are two Mr. Vali...or that they are actually twin brothers."
"This is a secret." The [Mr. Vali] in front of him smiled: "And the important thing is that you will never know the answer to this secret... Although you can get here,
It will probably give me a headache outside, but the headache will disappear soon. This is another perfect game."
As he said that, [Mr. Vali]'s face suddenly became cold: "I changed my mind...adding food."
As soon as he raised his hand, the tangled roots in the inner hall shot out quickly... They were so sharp that they seemed to be able to pierce everything. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of roots had pierced Boss Luo's body directly.
.
But at this moment, these sharp fibrous roots actually bent directly... They seemed to be stabbing hard metal instead of soft skin.
"You?" [Mr. Valli] couldn't help but be startled.
Immediately, Boss Luo's body flashed with colorful lights, and a set of armor that was as bright as the sun directly covered his whole body, as well as the big... holy light sword!
"This suit and this sword are..." [Mr. Vali] was startled and subconsciously took two steps back.
