() The night was thick, and a dark cloud covered the silver plate hanging in the sky, and the whole land was dark. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the deserted street, the lights were dim, and occasionally there would be a drunken man swaying from side to side, drunkenly looking for his way home.

Even when the drunk walked to some of the locked-off areas under martial law and didn't know it, he would be hit by several flashlights in the face in the dark night, and the dazzling light made him can't help but curse, and when he was able to adapt to the intensity of the light, he found a group of policemen standing in front of him.

The police did not interrogate the drunk, but directly confirmed his personal information through the documents found on his body, and then forcibly took the drunk into a police car and sent him away.

Not long after the police car left with the drunken man, a ghostly shadow suddenly passed the blockaded street under martial law after quickly evading some surveillance.

Istanbul's successive thefts of antiquities, as well as terrorist attacks during the convening of international conferences, have made the entire Turkish state highly strained.

The Turkish government has decided to impose a curfew and martial law on the whole of Istanbul to ensure the safety of the heads of state and business who come to the conference.

There had already been a major accident, and the hateful thieves had taken advantage of the gap to steal important national cultural relics, and the Turkish government imposed martial law on the whole of Istanbul in order to ensure security during the meeting and to arrest the thieves, and many of the main transportation routes were blocked. However, all passing vehicles and ships are subject to strict checks. Once a suspicious phenomenon is discovered, the Iraqi police will immediately arrest it.

Therefore, in such a noisy environment, ordinary people are very cooperative to stay at home at night and not go out, even if some people who can't stand the loneliness are just relaxing in the nearby activity places that are allowed to open, but they are also under the close surveillance of plainclothes police in those dark places.

However, even in the whole of Istanbul, which is under strict martial law, in the dark night, there are still some 'ghosts' who like to walk in the dark will carry out some secret activities around.

A number of important national artifacts were stolen at the same time. The Turkish police control all the main roads in and out of Istanbul and carry out strict checks, and those thieves who want to transport antiquities can easily be caught by land, so they can only choose to transport them by sea.

Because the geographical location of the whole Istanbul is stuck on the Bosphoru, between the throat of the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea, facing the sea on three sides, its waterways extend in all directions. It undoubtedly gave the thieves some opportunities to escape.

Although the Turkish government is aware that the imposition of a strict blockade on the vast and narrow coastline may allow thieves to take advantage of the loopholes to transport antiquities abroad by diving, they are still trying to maintain the blockade of the entire strait and strive not to let go of any suspicious fish.

Although the Turkish government has caused great trouble for the thieves to do so, it wants to block the land and sea routes to prevent the antiquities from being shipped abroad, but in fact. As far as the thieves are concerned, they do not want to transport the antiquities, and their scope of activity is still in the corner of Istanbul, an ancient city with thousands of years of civilization and history.

And the darkness that can't be seen is also providing the best shelter for those 'ghosts' who like to move in such an environment.

And what the Turkish police didn't even notice was what they expected. In that Istanbul there is a very hidden secret room in an underground palace that is listed as one of the Eight Wonders of the World and is open to visitors for a limited time. But it became an excellent hiding place for the thieves, and no one could detect it.

What's even more unimaginable is that in addition to the official entrance, the underground palace also has several unknown secret entrances, and those thieves can enter the underground palace through those secret entrances to hide their whereabouts.

At this moment, in a dark secret room of the underground palace.

The secret room is very spacious and bright, and there is only an oil lamp lit on a very old circular candlestick in the east, which makes the light in the room very dim, and it can only achieve the effect of making people see and distinguish the direction.

And in the center of the secret, there is an ancient platform built like a boxing ring, this platform is square on the perimeter, and the four corners are handled by four pillars carved with various patterns and textures, and there is a hollow hole in the center of the pillar.

In the center, there are three triangular pillars around the center of the circle, which is about three meters in diameter, and like the outer square pillars, there are also hollow holes, and their direction also corresponds to a direction that is the direction of the oil lamp.

The ingenious thing is that the light reflected by the faint light of the oil lamp can pass through the holes, so that the holes of the seven pillars are connected in series, and from the height, they can gather a magical pattern, such a mysterious device, a bit like an ancient altar, with a mysterious color.

And to the north of this altar, there is the only stone door in this secret room, at this time the stone door is ajar, can only accommodate one person in and out, and there is also a light inside, but it is stronger than the oil lamp reflected, it belongs to the light of the incandescent lamp, making the stone room bright.

In the stone chamber, there was no other decoration on the walls, only a shelf, on which hung a few rusty ancient swords, and a few ox horn bows.

The most special thing is that on the wall of the hall in the middle of the stone room, there is a large piece of metal like a human face that seems to have been embedded into the wall, and some ancient patterns are carved around it, which looks so strange and bizarre under the illumination of the light.

In the middle of the stone room, there is a huge rectangular stone table, the surface of the stone table is very smooth and smooth, like a mirror, if you look closely, you will find that there seems to be a faint creature wriggling under the smooth surface, under the influence of the light, from time to time there will be a mysterious streamer flashing.

Excluding such a mysterious environment, the most bizarre of them are a few people wearing ancient black wizard robes, wearing a badge on their chests that is somewhat similar to the human face metal on the wall, and the whole body, including the head, is covered by the robes, and the mysterious people are very religious, but they don't know what kind of religious organization it is.

Obviously, although the loose wizard robes concealed their appearance, they could not hide their physical features, especially the few parts of the robes that stood up on their chests, indicating that most of the people dressed as these mysterious wizards were women.

Of course, there were also one or two mysterious men who used their strong bodies to prop up the wizard's robes, and their bodies looked very burly and huge.

There were six of them dressed as wizards, and they sat around the stone table after they gathered in this stone chamber, and they did not have any words to talk to each other, but sat there quietly, not knowing what they were waiting for.

But it didn't take long for the mysterious men in wizards' robes to make a slight movement, and they all turned their heads to look at the door of the stone room.

At the door of the stone room, a woman who was also wearing a robe finally appeared, but this woman's body was more slender, and his robe was not the kind of black, but a kind of crimson that was a little darkened after being soaked in blood.

When the black-robed people saw the woman in the crimson robe come in, they all immediately stood up, crossed their hands over their chests, and straightened their bodies naturally, and then made a slightly half-squatting gesture, which should be saluting.

The woman in the crimson robe only nodded slightly with one hand across her chest, but the moment he nodded, he could see a few strands of white hair peeking out of her robe, and a slender and delicate jade hand that was as white as a girl when it was across her chest.

The most eye-catching thing is the ring on this woman's slender jade hand that looks like a demon's face, which looks a little hideous.

The black-robed men stepped forward to kiss the ring, and then returned to their places and sat down, still so quiet and silent.

The woman in the crimson robe walked to the main seat and sat down, and then finally spoke first, but her voice was so cold and hoarse, like a frost sting, and there was no expression of emotion, "Why is there no Erivader?" ”

"Your Excellency, Elliver's mission has failed!"

A black-robed woman sitting on the second seat replied: "He is currently in Rome, and he did not carry out the operation himself, but only hired an assassin of the dark organization to infiltrate the Holy Church to search, and the assassin escaped after the failure of the mission, and Alivier explained that he was suffering from an old illness and had difficulty moving......

"It's a ridiculous excuse, it seems that Alivier is afraid, and he must die to ensure that the secret of the resurrected true God is not revealed!"

When the red-robed woman said this, the chill was even worse, especially the killing intent that bloomed when the life and death of others were decided between words, which made the black robes present feel cold.

At this time, the black-robed man in the second position on the right hand said: "Your Excellency, we have successfully obtained those few things, at present, the Turkish police have blocked all land and waterways for search and investigation, and now Aliver's mission has failed, which has disrupted our overall deployment, what to do next, please show ......"

The crimson robed woman stretched out her white fingers and stripped the white hair that was exposed outside the robe, pondered for a moment before saying, "Take out the things, let's make a simple attempt first, and see if that legendary record is still valid?" ”

After saying that, the black-robed people immediately took out a small suitcase and put it on the table.

When they opened the suitcase, they saw that the precious historical artifacts that had been kept secret in the museum were displayed in front of the crimson robed woman.
