Game: I'm a Hunter in the Blood Curse World

Chapter 177 It's Like Going Home

That's all for now.

Van En also saw the entrance to the secret passage indicated by the red dot of the mission, right on the edge of this low hill.

That's exactly where Leslie stood looking down at the church square when he "went crazy".

After walking over, Vann gently kicked away the surface dirt and saw several broken marble floorboards.

After stepping forward and seeing it, Götze said, "Right here? There's nothing strange about it, just the remaining architectural ruins!"

Snapped!

Vann used a butcher's knife to pry open the broken floorboards, revealing the iron cover underneath.

Götze's eyes widened in surprise: "Such sophisticated concealment techniques, truly impressive!"

Van En chuckled and said, "If you could find this so easily, this place would have been exposed long ago!"

Götze nodded, then realized what he meant and said, "I'm the leader of the Hunter Guild, so your words are a little hurtful!"

Fan En smiled and said, "That's the skill of the Keeper of Secrets, don't be sad."

"The Keeper of the Secrets of the William Family!"

Götze's eyes widened, clearly realizing the gravity of the situation.

With a creak, Vane opened the heavy iron door and found a ladder carved out of the wall.

He looked at Katya and said, "I'll go down first, then you carry Lilith down."

"Um!"

Katya put Lilith on her back and felt very relaxed.

Götze stopped Vane and said, "I'll go down first and lead the way, then the other three can go down, and you can go down last."

Van En thought that Götze truly lived up to his reputation as the leader of the hunting party; his thoughts were very meticulous, and his arrangements were more appropriate than his own. He nodded and said, "Okay!"

Before he could finish speaking, Götze transformed into a streak of silver light and flashed down at an incredible speed.

The next second, Götze's voice came from below: "It's alright! You guys come down!"

After watching Katya carry Lilith down, Vann glanced around and, seeing no one else appear, also entered the secret passage.

Bang!

The moment the iron gate closed, a faint blue light appeared at the entrance to the secret passage.

The pried-open rubble, the surrounding sand, and even Vann and his men's footprints were all wiped away.

Everything was restored to its original state, without any flaws.

Snapped!

Fan En's feet touched the ground, smelling the familiar dampness and dust, which even felt somewhat comforting. He thought to himself:

It's this kind of environment again, it feels like coming home.

Turning his head, Vann saw that Götze was standing at the very front, staring intently at a pile of dark, coal-ash-like things.

Katya and Anona held the Silver Blood Lamp in their hands, muttering something with their eyes closed.

Van En stepped forward and helped Lilith, who was in a "sleepwalking" state, looking at the pile of coal ash with a strange feeling.

Swish!

Van En's eyes flashed blue as he looked over again.

The black slag that makes up the coal pile is very coarse, and the sizes are completely inconsistent.

Moreover, after seeing through the surface debris, Van En saw large pieces of debris shaped like eye sockets, mouths, and noses.

Van En's pupils shrank instantly; he knew exactly what this pile of coal ash was.

By this time, everyone had finished praying.

Götze patted Vann on the shoulder and said in a heavy tone, "After the Church quelled the Lu Ting Rebellion, it gathered 1000 priests and used a large-scale divine spell to turn the soil of Lu Ting City upside down several times."

The final result was that a large number of buildings in Luting City were buried underground, along with these wild animals—the remains of the victims.

body. "

Van En sighed, instantly realizing that the old Luting City was now a giant tomb.

He saw the red mission line pass through the arched stone gate ahead, and stepped forward: "Let's go! There are probably many places like this underground."

"good!"

Seeing that Van En had gone ahead, Götze let the women go first, while he stayed at the rear of the procession.

Katya supported Lilith, staying close to Vann, and whispered, "Lord Vann, I dare not go out alone again. I was very worried last night."

Van En took Katya's hand and said gently, "No problem, it won't happen again."

"Take me with you even if you run off somewhere!"

Katya smiled and gripped Van's hand even tighter.

Seeing that Vann and Katya were getting along well, Anona turned her head and gave Götze a cold look, then turned away after a snort.

Götze helplessly shrugged, but seeing Katya's face, so similar to little Maria's, yet able to smile so adorably and happily, he sighed inwardly:

They're clearly biological sisters, yet they're so different! The younger sister is lively and adorable, while the older sister is like a puppet; I've never even seen her blink—"

Although the underground ruins of the Old Deer Court are vast, many areas lack pathways because they were violently excavated underground by large-scale divine magic.

The entire underground ruins are like a chaotic natural maze, even more complex than places like mines and caves.

Fortunately, Van En had a bug-level mission system to support him, and he followed the red line through several indoor spaces.

Vane found themselves on an upside-down street.

Overhead was a wide stone-paved road, full of ruts, with dilapidated, upside-down houses on either side.

Beneath your feet lies a rugged path formed by the shattered remains of buildings, much like a gravel road created by glacial activity on a high mountain.

Such a spectacular sight reminded Fan En of Inception, and he stopped to admire it for a while.

Götze and Anona stared in disbelief, clearly finding the sight worthwhile.

The road ahead was difficult, so Vann carried Lilith on his back and hopped forward.

Katya chuckled and used the lightness spell unique to battle priests to quickly catch up.

Anona exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the agile and swift Katya, "This—this is a Battle Priest's skill! Isn't Katya—isn't she a Sister of Rest like me?!"

'

Götze chuckled twice, not at all surprised. Instead, he reminded her, "Have you forgotten whose sister she is?"

"Well----"

Anona, remembering that woman, shrank her neck and said, "That makes perfect sense."

Götze squinted at Katya's retreating figure and whispered, "Why are all the descendants of Master Maria so strange? She even passed away so young, buried with her own primordial blood—"

call!

A gust of cold wind brushed past Götze's neck, and the icy chill made him gasp.

Götze touched the back of his neck, feeling as if an incredibly sharp knife had sliced ​​across it.

"Where did the wind come from?!"

Götze looked around but didn't see anything unusual. But the next second, his eyes suddenly widened: "Could it be—the legend is true—that Lady Maria, who possesses royal blood, really isn't—"

Snapped!

Götze immediately covered his mouth and kowtowed in all directions, saying, "I was wrong! I was wrong! I shouldn't have criticized you!"

Anona frowned at Götze and said disdainfully, "What's wrong with you now! Carry me over there!"

"Okay!"

Götze carried Anona on his back, his body glowing with silver light, and chased after Vane.

Vann walked very carefully, keeping his attention focused on Lilith behind him.

He discovered that Lilith's body temperature was now normal compared to the beginning, and even a little warmer than the average person.

Smelling the rose scent emanating from Lilith and hearing her even breathing, Van felt very content.

Snapped!

Van En suddenly stopped and looked in the direction indicated by the red mission line on his left. He saw that blood mist was drifting out of that passage.
