The collapsed giant bird-headed statue and the scattered ruins all tell us that this was once a prosperous country.

But now all these things have been buried by the yellow sand, leaving only decay and loneliness.

"Interesting, could this be the carefree paradise "Aru" that the Red King once dreamed of building?"

"Aru?"

Lu Sheng had some impression of this name. It was not a person's name, but a place name.

Aru Village.

The Aru mentioned by Sandoni is definitely not referring to that small village, but the origin of the village's name, that is, the Carefree Heaven that the Red King wanted to establish after the death of the Flower God.

"That's right, the Red King said: "In the original world, the barriers were torn down, and the dark poison seeped into the earth. In order to heal that fragile, pathetic and imperfect world, the long spikes descended and pierced through the earth's crust." It was the past when the abyss invaded the world and Sky Island sent down the sky spikes to repair the world."

"He also said, 'The laws I set are more beautiful and precise, so there is no need. No one who followed her should die in vain, and no poetry should be lost because of this.' So I guess that the Red King knew the secret of Sky Island, so he was dissatisfied with the laws of nature and wanted to use the power outside the world to reshape a new world and become the creator god of that world."

Sandone couldn't help but sigh jokingly when he said this.

"But it is obvious that he failed in the end because he could not control the forbidden power and was afraid that his country would be destroyed. So he chose to commit suicide to save his people."

Lu Sheng commented: "That's not bad, at least he didn't lose his mind. As a god, he cares about the safety of his people, which is beyond most gods."

"Keep going, I can feel what I desire approaching me."

The two of them thus plunged headfirst into the intricate underground world.

During this period, their actions startled many dormant energy constructs. These mechanical rectangular and triangular creations instinctively launched an attack on the outsiders who invaded the place where the Red King rested.

Sandoni took the rare step of dismantling the constructs himself, picking up their pieces and studying them with great interest.

"I see...it can be done this way..."

Lu Sheng didn't know what this woman could figure out from the pile of fragments, but judging from her performance, it seemed that she had learned a lot of knowledge from it.

If you want to go to the inverted pyramid, you must first find the teleporter underground.

Lu Sheng remembered that he had to pass through a place called Du'e Hall.

After dozens of minutes of exploration, they finally found the entrance to Du'e Hall.

However, the way forward was blocked by a pile of corpses.

"That's... the Fatui?"

Sandonie's face darkened and he immediately ran to check the bodies on the ground. They were indeed the Fatui, and they were the elite advance team that had been sent to investigate the Red King's Tomb not long ago.

"They must have found another entrance, but who killed them? There are no signs of mechanisms here. Could it be that there are other people who are also coveting the forbidden knowledge of the Red King?"

Lu Sheng was also aroused by the sudden accident.

After examining several bodies, he analyzed: "The wounds of these people are very strange. They were killed by the same attack, and there are almost no signs of struggle. Well, it seems that a sudden sneak attack killed everyone directly. The murderer is very powerful."

Sandonie frowned, "It can't be a group of treasure robbers, right? These people are carefully selected elites. Who in Xumi can let them die so easily?"

"Excuse me, it's me."

A male voice was heard from the empty underground world.

Lu Sheng and Sandoni turned their heads together and saw a man in a black suit, a tall hat, and a golden monocle hanging on his chest walking out of the Du'e Hall with a notebook spinning around his head.

Behind him followed a dozen hollow knights wrapped in gray armor, creating a very oppressive feeling.

Seeing this, Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

The one who can command the Shell Knight is undoubtedly a member of the Abyss.

Sandoni was the first to ask, "Who are you? You are so brave that you dare to kill our Fatui."

"Haha~ Sorry, in my eyes, the Fatui are no different from everyone else."

The man said very gentlemanly and gently: "Please allow me to introduce myself. I am the preacher, believer and student of the great "Prophet" Lord Viserfenil. You can call me Mr. Hat."

"The reason why I'm here is that my master learned through prophecy that someone has been coveting the forbidden knowledge left by the Red King. In order to prevent the world from falling into chaos again, my master sent me here to retrieve the Red King's forbidden knowledge. As a result, I accidentally met your companions and accidentally hurt them."

Mr. Hat bowed deeply to Sandonie. "Would it make you feel better if I apologized?"

Sandoni doesn't care about this issue, she only cares about taboo knowledge.

"So, you have obtained the forbidden knowledge left by the Scarlet King?"

"No, no, no! Don't get me wrong! Although I tried to get it, it seems that we have all been tricked by the Red King."

"What do you mean?" Sandoni demanded.

"You want to go to the pyramid up there? Sorry, I just came back from there. There's nothing there except a particularly terrifying machine. The remains of the Red King are not here at all. We've all been deceived!"

"Huh! Do you think I will believe your nonsense?"

After working so hard for so long, Sandoni naturally refused to accept such an answer.

She firmly believed that the hat-wearing idiot in front of her had monopolized the forbidden knowledge of the Red King.

The only way is to kill.

Sensing the murderous intent in his master's heart, the puppet gentleman immediately assumed a fighting stance.

"Alas~ I thought a beautiful lady like you would be a dignified lady, but I didn't expect you to be so unreasonable. Forget it, I just escaped from that broken machine, I don't have time to deal with you!"

Mr. Hat tapped the ground with his cane, and a space crack appeared behind him.

At the same time, the Shell Knights behind him rushed forward and fought with Sandoni and her puppets.

Just as Mr. Hat turned and walked into the crack, a flash of lightning flashed.

He was kicked into the rift by Lu Sheng. In the chaos, the rift's vibrations randomly teleported the two to a corner of the Red King's Mausoleum.

The next second, Mr. Hat spitted blood and flew out from the suddenly broken crack. After a loud bang, he became a piece of art embedded in the wall.

"The Prophet Vesefenir, if I heard correctly just now, you said this name, right?"

Lu Sheng walked slowly to Mr. Hat and knocked him down from the wall.

After Rhinedort, he had a plan to hunt down the five sinners of Kanria.

Unfortunately, each of these people is more mysterious than the other, and they all hide away and refuse to show up.

At this time, a student who is a "prophet" suddenly appeared, which was like a great gift delivered to the door.

Through him, you can know the whereabouts of the "prophet". By killing the "prophet", you can also steal his forbidden knowledge.

Lu Sheng grabbed Mr. Hat and knocked him off the wall.

He held back on the kick just now, for fear of kicking the guy to death, but even so, almost all of Mr. Hat's bones were broken, and he had completely lost the ability to resist.

"Please tell me where your master is?"

Mr. Hat stared at Lu Sheng, his eyes filled with surprise and fear.

The teacher only predicted that someone would break into the Red King's Mausoleum to look for forbidden knowledge, but he never said that there would be such a master.

The sudden attack just now even prevented someone like me, who has the ability of divination, from reacting.

The opponent's strength is completely unpredictable!

Hundreds of times more terrifying than the powerful machine hanging from the top of an inverted pyramid!

"My Lord... My Lord cannot be found, seen, or heard. Only at the end of the long river of time can one glimpse his back..."

Lu Sheng was in awe.

"Your Lord is Cthulhu?"

"Haha~" Mr. Hat laughed miserably, "It's nonsense. I don't understand what you are saying at all. You just need to remember one thing. Once you are observed by my master, you will have no secrets at all. No matter what happens, you will be like an ant trapped in a glass bottle, at the mercy of others... ah!!!"

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Hat suddenly let out a scream.

It turned out that Lu Sheng had stabbed a fragment of Onikiri into his body.

The tiny fragments travel with the blood, piercing any blood vessels and muscles along the way.

The pain caused is thousands of times more terrible than lingchi.

Mr. Hat felt as if blades were growing out of his body inch by inch. The more excited he was, the faster his blood flowed and the pain became more severe.

"Untraceable, right? Invisible, right? Inaudible, right? The river of time, right?"

Every time Lu Sheng said something, he stuffed a piece of debris into Mr. Hat's body.

"Human blood circulates for about 20 to 30 seconds. It won't be long before the first fragment enters your heart, so... you still have a chance to change my mind before that."

"I! I really don't know where he is! Although I am her student, I have never seen him. We communicated through the prophecies he left behind! If you don't believe it, the prophecy is with me!"

Lu Sheng then took out the prophecy from his chest pocket.

"When the stars in the sky flicker three times, the ignorant and sinful man will break into the resting place of the Desert Emperor and steal the dark remains that will bring endless suffering to the world. At that time, the bright moon will lose its luster, the oasis will be buried by yellow sand, and all living things will suffer for a thousand years."

I hate the Riddler the most in my life!

Aren’t those prophets good at speaking?

Translation: If someone robs the Red King's tomb in three days, there might be great loss of life.

Simplified version: Thieves robbed the king’s tomb, causing a great disaster.

But to be honest, the prediction is quite accurate.

The advance team of Fatui has already found the entrance to the Hall of Du'e. If they take one more step, they can go to the Hall of Hengzhun and reach the inverted pyramid above through the portal there.

Just when Lu Sheng was concentrating on the prophecy, Mr. Hat took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

The Eye of God on his waist emitted a bright green light, and several attacks were launched from his palms, directly targeting Lu Sheng's vital parts.

In an instant, Lu Sheng disappeared from the spot, and Mr. Hat's sneak attack failed.

At this moment, the fragments flowed into the heart along with the blood. After a moment of palpitations and severe pain, his pupils gradually lost their luster.

After a moment the body died and the soul ascended to heaven.

However, Mr. Hat's soul did not leave as smoothly as expected.

He felt a restraining force, an irresistible force, like a pair of invisible hands strangling his soul.

"Do you think death will be the end?"

A horrifying sound came from behind.

Mr. Hat's soul trembled violently, and then was sucked back in. No matter how he struggled, he could not escape the restraining force that bound his soul.

"Who are you? Why do you have the ability to bind souls?"

Faced with Mr. Hat's bad habit of answering questions with questions, Lu Sheng slightly tightened the strength in his hands, and the pressure released by the soul-binding force almost tore the opponent's soul into pieces.

The pain of the soul is more intense than that of the body. Mr. Hat cannot even withstand the torture of the body, let alone the torture of the soul.

For a moment, terrible screams echoed throughout the secret room.

"You won't let me go even though I'm dead! I've already told you! I don't know where he is!"

While wailing, Mr. Hat once again emphasized that he did not know the whereabouts of the prophet.

"Really? I don't believe it."

Lu Sheng finally got some clues about the five sinners, and he didn't want to end up with nothing.

Even if this person really doesn't know where the prophet is, he must know other things about the prophet.

It must be that the torture he suffered was not enough, so that the other party was unwilling to confess voluntarily.

"It's okay. Once you get to my wonderful house, I promise I'll tell you everything."

Lu Sheng gave an evil smile.

"Miao...Miao Miao House?"

Before Mr. Hat had time to think about what it was, his soul was trapped in an extremely dark space.

He looked around in panic. In the darkness, pairs of blood-red eyes lit up, staring at him fiercely.

These are the spirits trapped in Lu Sheng's body, that is, the evil spirits transformed from many karmas and the hatred of demons.

Soon Lu Sheng's voice came into the space.

"Treat this new friend well and don't kill him. Whoever can get something useful out of him will have his chance of reincarnation next time given to him."
