As Roland had a hunch, there was a key that would have a corresponding lock. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The lock was actually on the door at the end of the prison hallway, and Veronica double-checked it to see if there were no traps and inserted the key into the lock.

Click! As the key rotated, the door slowly opened, and a cold air flow greeted everyone, and everyone shivered.

Behind the gate is a deep and winding corridor with no end in sight. As if sensing the arrival of a visitor, the chandeliers hanging from the ceiling are lit one after another, so that people can get a glimpse of the large murals painted on the walls on both sides of the corridor without having to step inside.

There are many murals, but there is only one theme: a humanoid monster with gray skin and six arms, wearing scale armor covered with skull headdresses, holding a different weapon in each hand, and making various combat stances.

Lyudmila looked at the hideous creature with green fangs on the mural, and couldn't help but whisper: "This is the portrait of Hextowe?" I've never seen such an ugly deity, don't you feel ashamed that the cultists of war worship such a monster? ”

Roland tugged at the corners of his mouth, and secretly laughed at the giant girl's shallow knowledge, there are more evil gods with ugly images in this world, such as Guan Nade, the "god of ooze monsters" who lives like a lump of one-eyed internal organs, not to mention those "indescribable" ancient evil things.

"I've heard of this corridor, nominally Grande's private gallery, but in fact the one he uses to test the devotion of his followers," Vigraf unfolded the map scroll and compared to the positions of the crowd, "through this 'gallery of evil gods', we can go directly to the heart of the war-scourge fortress." ”

"So it's a shortcut to the Hexstow Temple? That's great news, but what's the point about the test channel? Bloom asked curiously.

Vigraf pointed to a mural and asked, "What do you see there?" ”

"Of course, it's the fresco of the evil god Hexstowe, and I have to admit that this guy is very ugly, especially the sharp mouth and huge fangs, which are impressive." The dwarf told what he saw, and Lyudmila and the others nodded in agreement.

"In fact, the reason why the portrait of Hextowe in our eyes is particularly ugly is that we are not believers in this evil god, and if a devout Hextowe walked into this gallery, the same mural would have a completely different image in his eyes."

"What image?"

"I'm not a believer in the evil god, and I can't say exactly what it looks like, but it is said that in the eyes of Hexstowe, the hero of these murals is a handsome man with light skin and black hair, who is full of charm."

"I see......," Roland pondered, "no wonder this gallery is used by Grande to test the loyalty of his followers, and if a person who claims to be a follower of Hexstow walks by and sees the ugly characters on the mural, it means that he is a false believer and has no reverence for Hexstowe." ”

"That's interesting, let me think about it, you told a similar story before......" The dwarf patted his forehead, "yes! The Emperor's New Outfit? ”

"Almost, but not quite." Roland smiled and explained, "There is a constant 'Realm of Honesty' in this corridor, and it is difficult for even those with a particularly strong heart to lie here, let alone deceive a legendary powerhouse like Grande. ”

"None of us are believers in that evil god anyway, so what if we just admit that Hexstow is an ugly bastard? Don't worry about it so much, let's go. The dwarf shrugged and was about to move forward with the hammer in his hand, but Veronica raised his hand to stop him.

Miss Ninja was not interested in the mural, and squatted on the ground to look at the large black and white floor tiles, her face was extremely solemn: "There is a magic trap on the ground. ”

"How about just flying through the air?" Lyudmila looked at Nikita.

The Witch in Red shook her head lightly and said in a deep voice, "Not only is the 'Honest Domain' constant here, but there are also spells that prohibit teleportation and flight, Veronica, can you manage to remove the trap on the ground?" ”

Veronica looked at the ground silently, took out a few gadgets from the thief's kit, probed the floor tiles, and after a long time looked up and smiled: "It's impossible to dismantle the trap, but we can follow a simple rule to get through the trap." ”

"What pattern?" Roland asked.

"You see, there are two colors of tiles on the ground, black and white, each of which is five feet long, and if we step on white or black tiles with both feet, then it will be safe, and if we step on the tiles of different colors with both feet, it will trigger a trap and be teleported to a random place...... Most of them are some extremely dangerous places. Veronica leaped forward, landed her feet on the white tiles, and then flew up again, landing lightly on the adjacent black tiles without the slightest occurrence.

After her demonstration, everyone has a bottom in their hearts. Lyudmila, Roland, and Vigrav could step directly over a tile and walk with their feet on the same color tile, while Nikita and Bloom were not as big as them, so they had to follow Veronica's example and jump forward like three big rabbits......

On the way, Veronica suddenly stopped and looked alertly at the side wall.

"Something is wrong...... The stroke seemed to move. ”

Hearing this, Roland's heart sank, and he quickly drew his heavy sword to remind his companions: "Beware of enemy attacks!" “

As soon as the words fell, a mark suddenly protruded on the wall, and Hexstowe's mural flew down like a living creature brandishing six weapons with cold light.

Without thinking, Vigraf swung his great sword and slashed at the frescoed monster's chest, nearly splitting it in half with a thud, but the wound healed on its own as the blade moved away, much to his surprise.

Roland followed in time, raised his shield to block the monster's six-arm combo for him, and said sharply: "This guy is a relief golem, and swords-like slashing weapons can't damage it!" ”

Boom! Bloom threw the hammer in time and slammed it into the relief golem's chest, sending it flying backwards and laying flat against the wall. The hammer struck the monster's flat stone body, revealing a large cobweb-like radiating crack that didn't heal itself as quickly as a sword mark.

With a flick of his wrist, he rotated the greatsword ninety degrees, avoiding the blade and slamming it with a thick blade as an iron rod, and the blade slashed against the wall to create a spark, which immediately slammed into the waist of the relief golem, almost breaking it at the waist, and flew away from the wall, slamming into the opposite side of the wall.

However, the moment the relief golem touched the wall, it magically disappeared like a drop of water melted into the sea.

"The Relief Golem has natural supernatural powers, and can use the 'Fusion into the Stone' and 'Phase Gate' at will, and can move freely through the wall, so try to move as close to the middle of the corridor as possible, without turning your back to the wall." Based on his impressions of the cameo golem in his recollections, Roland quickly reminded his companions.

Everyone had been fighting side by side for many days, and they were already aware of it, and immediately formed a circle back to back, with Roland, Bloom, Vigraf and Lyudmila on the periphery, and Nikita and Veronica, who were poorly defended, surrounded by four people. The problem is that you have to take care of the floor under your feet while fighting, and always be on the lookout for triggering traps, and in this extremely unfavorable environment, you can imagine the danger of fighting relief golems that move freely inside and outside the walls.

Roland thought for a moment, then turned to Nikita and asked, "Did you bring the 'Depetrification' scroll?" (To be continued.) )
