Chapter 63: The Altar

In front of them was a stepped trapezoidal platform, about three stories high. The style of this platform is the same as this dungeon, cold, hard, and hopeless, with a sense of stale that has been abandoned and dusted for centuries and is beginning to rust and peel off from the bones.

The closer you get to the platform, the stronger the smell of blood, and the masonry on which the platform is built is full of mottled marks of purple red. All this gives the impression of an evil smell that is slowly fermenting.

"What the hell?" Qin Tian walked over and rubbed his fingers on the masonry, and the dark red fragments of dry paint stained his fingers.

"Dried blood." Mizucao said with a look of disgust.

"It's all here! The entire platform was soaked in blood. Su Bai stepped on the staircase made of white bones and walked towards the top of the platform.

"I'm guessing it's an altar. That's why there are so many dead bones. ”

"What kind of evil sacrifice requires so many lives? Why are these bones being thrown around? Mizucao frowned.

"Anyway, it's not going to be a good thing, let's look for clues."

There were several altars at the top of the platform, and rusty decapitators were thrown haphazardly on the ground. Talismans of unknown use and ancient ornaments are revealed at the edges of large shards of congealed blood.

Everything here can be imagined of those tragic scenes, the ferocity and indifference of the executioners, the despair and fear of the lamb to the slaughter, all frozen in this thick stain of dry black blood, which not even time can completely erase.

"Look! There is text here. Serena pointed to the side of an altar. There are some twisted words carved crookedly. However, Qin Tian didn't know any of them.

"It's Nisven." Miller said hesitantly.

"My magic teacher taught us, but I don't remember much...... The above seems to be about the underground demon king, blood sacrifice, seal or something, and there are many words I don't know, so I don't know the specifics. ”

"There is no doubt that there is another layer down there, and there should be a boss-level monster. The blood sacrifice here is supposed to be the ritual that summoned it back then. Qin Tian knew very well what was underneath.

The third basement floor is the territory of Devil Gordon, which is the right-hand man of the final boss Quenton. The first true Demon King-level monster they will face off. But at this time, he can't explain to his teammates, only vague hints.

But he also found it strange that there was no such scene in a normal dungeon. But what do you see now?

Suddenly, he suddenly realized that the boss-level monster in the other world was its real body when it was faced for the first time, and when the boss-level monster was killed, what was refreshed in the otherworld was its copy, and its strength would drop a lot in all aspects.

So the dungeons he saw back then were all beaten by others, which was naturally different from now.

There was a slight tremor on the ground. There was a flurry of metal crashing like some huge gear being plucked.

"I didn't do anything! Just touched the altar! A panicked Miller raised his hands and said to the crowd looking at him.

The tremors became more and more intense, like an earthquake. Large quantities of dust and rubble began to fall overhead and around the head. People who were unsteady on their feet began to run to avoid falling stones.

"Look at that! What is that? Su Bai pointed to the passage behind them.

The loud sound of jumping was deafening, and the entire mountain wall and passage had shattered and collapsed. A massive, constantly rotating, drill-like disc made of metal slowly emerges from the rock.

This huge metal piece filled the space of the entire rear hall, approaching Qin Tian and them with a huge sense of oppression.

The disc is covered with sharp serrations, each one the size of a person. Seeing how easily it shatters boulders, no one doubts its lethality.

"Oh my God! What is this thing? That's not something we can handle! Miller's face was horribly white, and he shuddered and threw a meteorite at the metal disc, but it was like a mud cow entering the sea without even a single spark.

"Run!" Qin Tian was also completely confused, this thing was completely beyond his imagination. We can only wait and see what happens.

As soon as his words fell, the vibration became even stronger, and he stumbled and couldn't even stand on his feet.

There was a smell of sulfur in the air, and the temperature suddenly skyrocketed. Even the green shield on his body began to glow red.

Huge gaps appeared in the ground and surrounding walls, and crimson magma churned and gushed with billowing black smoke.

"Make no mistake! Are we in a volcano? Even the normally calm aquatic weed's face changed color, and he shouted as he dodged a falling rock.

The entire altar shook and shattered, and the scorching lava consumed what little ground remained with deadly temperatures, leaving them with fewer and fewer paths to choose from. Behind them, the massive drill slowly approached them with a roar of indifference, despair, and death.

"Look! There's a passage there! Qin Tian led the team to run forward, and with the help of the red light of magma, they saw a black passage not far ahead.

"Wow!" Suddenly a huge iron gate appeared in front of them, blocking all the roads. The iron gate appeared out of thin air, rusty but covered with countless sharp nails.

"Holy! What's going on here! Is this to be exterminated? Su Bai couldn't help but be angry.

Everyone was desperate to find a way to escape, but everywhere they looked was red lava, rusty iron walls, and approaching metal maws that were like tunnel worms.

Qin Tian was still very calm, he always felt that something was wrong when he looked at all this.

"Boss! What's going on? We! We...... It seems to be rusting! Xu Kai, who had always been not afraid of heaven and earth, used his tall body to protect Serena, but at this time, he stretched out his arm in front of Qin Tian, and his tone was full of fear.

Qin Tian saw that Xu Kai's hands were covered with rust marks that were spreading to his forearm. The mottled shapes, the colors, and the feeling of decay all destroy the human will.

"That's not right! Think of a way! Su Bai shouted in his ear.

Qin Tian turned his head, he felt that his neck was not turning so neatly, and a slight movement would make a creaking sound from the bones, not the crisp sound of bones, but more like the friction of gears that had not been oiled for a long time.

He saw that Su Bai's frightened face was also rusty, and even the whites of his pupils and eyes were rusty spreading. At this moment, everyone's bodies seemed to turn into metal, decaying and disappearing in the rapid passage of time.

Su Bai struggled to move, his skin curled and cracked into rust due to the exertion. But he didn't seem to notice it, his mouth wide open but his voice had become muffled.

The rest of the people were no better, unable to speak and only twisting their bodies slightly, making indefatigable whimpers, like long-abandoned metal sculptures slowly melting away in the wind and rain. All around them was the roar of huge gears shattering the rock, and the blades with cold death were as close as the heads of giant lathes.

Wrong! Something must be wrong! It's just the second basement floor! There could not be such a terrifying zone. The third basement floor is the lair of Gordon the Devil. Qin Tian shouted in his heart! He felt that he must have fallen into some kind of nightmare that he couldn't wake up from, but he couldn't help himself.

Right! Nightmare! Devil! Gordon! Qin Tian suddenly felt that he understood something. With the only strength he had left, he kicked Su Bai beside him towards the metal wall covered with long iron nails.

Su Bai couldn't even make a sound, and was smashed against the iron wall by sharp iron nails through his body. The next moment, his body seemed to fall into a quagmire, slowly engulfed by the metal wall.

Qin Tian didn't care about Su Bai, he continued to use his best strength to push Shuicao and Xu Kai to the iron wall. As he ran, his body shattered piece by piece, and black rust slag spread all over the ground.

Be sure to hold on! Qin Tian shouted wildly in his heart. He felt that his eyes were almost gone, but he still grabbed Miller and Serena, who had long been unable to move, and he pinched them both under his armpits and threw them hard at the long iron nails.

Worst! The legs are already rusted with the rocks and can't move!

Qin Tian let out a fierce sound, gritting his teeth and twisting his body hard. Teeth shattered in the mouth, a mouth full of rust smell.

"Click!" One leg finally broke free and broke, and three broken bodies smashed into the iron wall by inertia.
