Chapter 536: The Betrayer's Labyrinth
Chapter 536: The Betrayer's Labyrinth
There is an organization that does not want the Demon God to return. They are extremely powerful and hidden very deeply. They secretly manipulate all the dynasty changes on the entire continent. Their purpose is to prevent the Demon God from suddenly coming back.
Regardless of what kind of organization the Glow Ion Yin Xiu Society is, since these prosthetic limb enthusiasts have turned into corpses, they are not the same as the organization that does not want the Demon God to return.
But this cannot be simply summarized as "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". The other party has crossed countless planes to come to the demon realm, and it is very likely that they are also heading for the Demon King's Ring.
What puzzled Oldie was, why?
I can't see any conflict of interest, and you don't seem to be followers of the Devil God. What are you doing here?
Not only was Oldie confused, Li Chengxi, who was watching through the computer screen, was also puzzled.
The only thing that puzzled Li Chengxi was different from that puzzled Aldea. What puzzled him was that there were Nixie tubes in the magic world...
On second thought, maybe it was 'invented' by a time traveler from Earth. That seems to make sense.
At this moment, Olde suddenly stood up, and Zora and Nimia, who were not far behind him, turned around and looked at the other side of the tunnel, reaching out to touch their weapons, as if they had heard some noise.
In fact, the three of them heard a terrible, low roar, very similar to the humming sound made by the wind blowing through the cave, but the sound carried a strong sense of malice. Just listening to the sound made every cell in the body send out a fierce warning.
There is danger ahead, run!
However, it was not a monster approaching, and the sound only occurred once. The three of them stood there and discussed for a while, then decided to continue going deeper.
Still as brave as ever.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Some kind of terrible roar was chilling, but it also interrupted Olde's thoughts.
She randomly picked up a few prosthetic limbs or implants from the pile of corpses and stuffed them into her magic bag. Then she called out to Zora and Nimia, and the three of them set off again, with no intention of retreating.
Of course, for Alde, the terrible roar could not stop her from moving forward. She even wanted to see what was making the roar...
Having said that, regardless of the true identity of that group of prosthetic enthusiasts, since they died here recently and the bodies were piled up into a small hill, the murderer is likely still in the ruins.
It was obvious that it was not a monster that killed them, otherwise they would not be piled so neatly at the door. It felt more like it was done by someone from an organization that did not want the Demon God to return.
Orday has already taken away a Demon King's Ring. The organization behind it will definitely deploy defenses in the other sealed locations where the Demon King's Ring is stored. It is expected that they will run into them this time.
Perhaps because of the mountain of corpses, the three men were more cautious in their subsequent actions. They tried not to make any noise and did not turn on any light sources. They relied entirely on the braziers placed in the tunnel to illuminate their way forward.
This time we walked about two hundred meters, and as the tunnel gradually narrowed, an exit finally appeared in front of us.
Nimia took a step forward, tiptoed towards the exit and looked around, finding no trace of the enemy, then gestured for Olde and Zora to follow.
When you walk out of the tunnel, the first thing that comes into view is a huge underground cavity.
The top is about twenty meters above the ground, with gully-like roads extending under the feet. At first glance, it looks like a fence maze, but it is made of stone.
Opposite the tunnel entrance is an open space the size of a square, with a huge object like a beacon tower sticking out of the ground. A pale green flame is still burning on it, providing the most basic lighting.
As far as the eye can see, there are no corpses, no monsters, and even no signs of human activity, but there are often some rustling sounds in the ears, like the subtle movements of insects crawling on tiles.
Alde waved her staff, and several translucent peeping eyes were scattered out, hovering around like drones, monitoring any possible dangers.
"This is supposed to be a maze. I can't see how big it is."
Zora pointed to the stone part above the gully and said:
"Can we go over it?" "Yes, but it's too conspicuous."
Don't forget, there must be an organization here that doesn't want the Demon God to return. There are only three of them, and it would be very troublesome if they were surrounded.
"Anyway, let's go down first. I think this square is a little unusual. Let's take a closer look."
There was no point in continuing to stand here, so the three of them went down the stairs on one side of the tunnel entrance and soon stood in the square.
The square was very flat, and some traces of burns could be vaguely seen on the ground, but they were not very regular.
Alde felt like someone had used some kind of fire spell here, but the traces were too blurry to make an accurate judgment.
Continuing forward, they came to the center of the square, where Aldea's peeping eyes saw something that concerned her.
In the center of the square, a huge black circle was made of stones and paint. Due to the dimness around it, the three people ignored it at first until they got closer and discovered it.
When you get closer, you will find that this black circular pattern is surrounded by a circle of flame-shaped patterns.
It is too regular and too distinctive to be a natural formation.
This should be some kind of emblem, but Alde didn't remember any organization or individual using this emblem.
Is it an emblem used by an organization that does not want the Demon God to return, or is it something else?
The three of them moved closer, and Alde motioned for Zora and Nimya to stay where they were while he moved closer.
This emblem has been here for a long time, and obvious signs of fading can be seen in many places. However, someone recently repainted it with paint, and the faded parts can only be seen in the details.
Moreover, Oldey discovered that there were traces of burns around the black spherical pattern, which were also very new and completely different from what he had just seen, but there were no ashes left by burnt fuel around it.
This doesn't seem like a purely symbolic emblem, it looks more like someone has used it recently.
An idea suddenly popped into Olde's mind.
Could this thing be some kind of holy emblem?
How many gods are there in the multiverse? This is a question that even the most knowledgeable scholars cannot answer. After all, there are too many planes, and a god, even a powerful god like Lathander who has believers in multiple planes, will only appear in four or five planes at most.
But according to Li Chengxi, the gods have fallen and it is impossible for them to come back in a short time. Even the holy emblem should have temporarily lost its function.
After hesitating for a moment, Aldea reached out and gently touched the edge of the black spherical pattern.
This is definitely a very risky move. If you remove the holy emblem of a god you know nothing about, you don't even know if there is a Dogecoin on the other end of the emblem, and you may be attacked.
Orday thought that the fall of the gods should be fine, so she decided to do this, using the spell of "Identify Magic Items" to confirm what the emblem is.
The moment she touched the emblem, Alde immediately regretted it.
Because when her fingertips touched the emblem, her eyes went dark, as if her eyes had been dug out and she was plunged into endless darkness...
