Chapter 249: Phase Chamber
"Smack"
With his right foot off the floor tiles, the 'Ethereal Boots' made of black leather, the tip of which touched the first step of the altar, Charles was shocked, and his spirit was suddenly empty.
I don't know if it's the influence of the altar's divinity, but the charr seems to have returned to the altar that was surrounded by many Gisyankees.
At that time, the dungeon was densely packed with people, and the high priest of Ghisyankee stood high on the altar with a golden scepter, leading many believers to call the queen's name.
In the form of sound waves, the wisps converged in the crystal gem at the top of the golden scepter, and gradually, the gem became more and more brilliant, and the white gradually added bright colors such as red, yellow, black, and green.
The colorful gem suddenly enlarged in the field of vision, as if someone had used the [Mage's Hand] to lift the gem in front of him, and Charles's eyes were full of fascination, and he couldn't help but reach out and want to grab the seven-colored gem.
But in the next second, half of the palm penetrated the gem, and the illusory colored light overflowed in the palm, like a dream.
Charles woke up instantly, and suddenly took two or three steps back, sweat was hidden on his sideburns.
Looking back at the altar, Charles' eyes filled with fear. Just now he just touched the altar with his toes, and his mind was silently affected, and if he stood up, he couldn't imagine what would happen.
His fear lies in the immeasurable power of the altar.
You must know that in addition to the purple title and the [Sacred Knowledge Emblem], which can provide immunity from will, Charles also has a [Strong] level divine blessing on him. Under normal circumstances, even if it is a hero level, an archmage who specializes in illusion. It was also difficult to absolutely suppress him with spirit spells.
But this altar just messed him up.
"The power of divinity is at work." Charles pursed his lips. He whispered, "The power of faith." It should be equivalent to a demigod figure. No wonder the Dark Church has controlled the half-plane for so long, but it still can't handle the skeleton on the altar, and this colorful gem......"
A tentative move made Charles cut off the idea of going to the altar.
No matter how precious the colorful gems are, they are not what he can touch now. Blind greed and self-confidence will only bury themselves, and Charles knows that there are too many desperate situations in "Dawn" that can only be deleted and retrained.
"Mahi, you go to the dungeon passage to help me watch the wind."
Charles decides to dig deeper into the dungeon. Except for the altar, of course. Someone could come to the dungeon at any time, so he thought about it for a moment and said to the little bat hidden in the cloak.
Sou.
As soon as the voice fell, the little blood-colored bat emerged from its cloak and swept out in the darkness.
Around the altar, Charles began to investigate the dungeon.
The crockpots in the corners, like stone houses in warehouses, are stocked with silver weapons that are no longer usable, including swords, scimitars, and daggers, as well as other ranged weapons such as bows and crossbows.
Then there is the stone chamber where the dungeon priests live. However, these stone chambers have apparently been cleaned up by the Dark Temple, leaving only the broken furniture.
Half an hour later. Charles stood in the large room where the Gisyankee High Priest lived, looking around, amazed at the looting power of the Dark Temple.
There was no trace of furniture or other equipment in this large room, and the location of the wall lamps that were originally installed on the walls was violently pried open and taken away. If other players observe the distribution of floor dust, they will also know that the house originally had a large carpet, which was later removed in its entirety.
"The antiques of the Giss Yankees, in the market of the imperial capital, are indeed valuable......"
Charles leaned over the corner of the room to pick up a piece of a lost vase, looking through the surface of the shard with a Gisyankee militaristic pattern.
When players venture through ancient ruins, there are often antique harvests, and in some big cities, NPC scholars and aristocrats are in demand for antiques. Some antiques even cost more than a purple outfit.
"Huh?"
Throwing away the piece of porcelain in his hand, Charles stood in the center of the room, suddenly frowning.
I don't know if it's a hallucination.
He always felt that there was a very faint flow of air above his head, and the direction of the flow was from the door of the house, straight to the wall a dozen paces away in front of him.
The wall was pitted, and the floor in the corner was extremely broken, Charles walked over, reconnoitred around, and said with a slight change in complexion: "There was a statue of a god here......
The occupant of the house was the Giss Yankee High Priest.
As a priest of the high priesthood, it was normal to worship an idol day and night in one's own room. But for some reason, the dark cultists demolished the idol, but the divinity that escaped from the altar outside flowed into the room as if guided by some force.
Right.
Charles was sure that the strange fluctuations in the void were caused by the movement of the divine nature.
He didn't have any evidence for this, but he was sure of it. Ogma's blessing (intensely) seems to have given him the unspeakable ability of the system, which is the perception of divinity, or the power of faith.
The sixth sense has always been a mysterious thing. The blessing of the gods may allow an ordinary person to have the ability to see the yin spirit, and of course, it can also make his clergyman, on the basis of his profession, perceive the flow of divinity and the power of faith.
Chasing the Divine, Charles stood under the wall.
The invisible divinity of the void vanished into the walls.
This disappearance was not transferred to another room in the dungeon, but directly jumped into a space that Charles could not perceive.
"Phase space?"
"Secret room?"
Charles exhaled softly, staring deeply at the dilapidated wall in front of him.
The walls are mostly grayish-white, made up of neatly sized bricks that lead up to the roof.
The wall was made of bricks, while the other three walls of the room were a single slab of smooth stone. The Dark Cultists apparently observed this difference as well, so there were many signs of chiseling on the walls.
But apparently, the Dark Cultists did not find the opening and closing of the phase gate in the end, and they were only suspicious, not sure that there was another space hidden behind the wall.
As a result, the walls are ignored over time. Based on the dust on the floor in the corners, Charles concluded that no one had been here for at least a few years.
Staring at the wall in front of him, Charles couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
His advantage over other Dark Cultists looking for a way to open the door was that it had been determined that there was another space behind the wall.
On this basis, if you look for a way to open the door, you will not be suspicious and afraid of getting nothing in the process.
In previous games outside of Dawn, Charles had accumulated countless experiences in finding secret rooms. Although the NPC in Dawn is more intelligent, like a living person, the more real a person is, the more likely he is to follow the rules and set up mechanisms out of mental inertia.
If Charles had to choose, he would still be willing to face the game characters directly, rather than come up with a strange idea and think of a way to train the player's game development team.
"Fire."
Charles experiments with the first method first, walking briskly out of the stone chamber and retrieving a torch and some cloth in the Dungeon Square a moment later. Then, naturally, the charr set the cloth on fire and baked the wall.
The choking gas from the burning cloth filled the space, and the small flames left mottled charred marks on the walls, but the walls did not change in the end.
Not surprisingly, the charr said that fire and water were the two most commonly used experimental methods, followed by water.
The list of Priest's Level 0 spells includes 12 spells: [Water Creation], [Healing Minor Damage], [Poison Detection], [Detecting Magic], [Divine Guidance], [Inflicting Minor Damage], [Illumination], [Healing], [Purifying Food], [Reading Magic], [Increasing Resistance], and [Gift].
Among them, [Water Magic], [Detection Magic], [Light Magic] and [Reading Magic] are the most commonly used, and the charr has seven zero ring spell slots, and the daily spell records are basically like this: [Reading Magic]*2, [Detection] Magic*2, [Illumination]*2, [Watermaking]*1.
"[Watermaking] (Zero Ring): Makes 2 gallons per grade of pure water."
Clicking on the icon on the spell slot, a dark green line of system text appears on the retina.
The Charles now have twelve Priest class levels, and can cast spells to create up to 24 gallons of pure water in a split second.
In real life, a bucket of purified water costs about 5 gallons, so if you convert it, the charr can splash 5 buckets of pure water at once.
But two buckets of water were more than enough to pour the wall in front of him. Charles pulled out the gold emblem and stared at the wall, uttering only one syllable, and a hole seemed to open in the air, and pure water gushed out of it.
Crash.
The gray-white walls suddenly became drenched. Immediately after, the walls turned muddy red as Charles watched.
Charles interrupted the spell, thinking that the experiment would continue, but after the walls turned mud red, some strange humanoid patterns appeared on some of the bricks.
Leaning closer to examine the bottom of a red brick, Charles noticed that the humanoid pattern on it was abstract, but it was wearing a robe with a clear spider pattern.
Looking at the slender bodies of these figures, it is not difficult to surmise that these female drow elves.
After checking the red bricks, Charles's eyes condensed slightly: "Sign language......"
The female drow has no faces, and each one looks like they are dancing, with their arms raised and posing in different poses, with a message clearly hidden.
[Fluent in language]!
Charles turned his gaze to his one-ring spell slot, choosing one of them, holding the emblem and reciting the incantation.
"Cast successfully."
"...... in the 'Instrument Interpretation' Skill Test"
"The verification failed. up"
"Do you want 'document reading' skills?" Charles frowned, 'Paperwork Solution' is a mage's professional skill, which is related to the intelligence attribute, and he has not even obtained this skill, let alone the skill level. (To be continued......)
