Chapter 20: The Vanishing Gods

From the next day, the three of Qi Yuan became coolies.

"Today, each of you has to bring back at least one fierce beast of the same level as your own strength."

After signing the master-servant contract, Colin Sutton was not afraid of any dissent, and let the three of them leave the temple early in the morning. It's just that before leaving, he said in an indifferent tone, "It's not allowed to spread the news here, and it's not allowed to run away, and if you don't come back before it's too dark, don't come back." ”

From his tone, it was easy to hear what the phrase "don't come back" meant.

Coming out of the tunnel and looking at the empty wilderness, the three of them had a somewhat complicated mood.

"Let's go." Luo Yan sighed.

"Lao Luo, otherwise, we will bring a few powerful fierce beasts over and raze this!" Zheng Lan gritted his teeth.

"No." Luo Yan pondered for a moment and shook his head.

Qi Yuan said, "If he does this, he will easily suspect us. Unless there is a way to kill that Colin in an instant, there is a good chance that he will use the rules of the contract to kill all three of us before he dies! ”

"What then?" Zheng Lan was also helpless.

Qi Yuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Luo, Sister Lan, do you say that there are really gods in this world?" ”

"It is said that there are on other human planets." Luo Yan said slowly: "A long time ago, this world was still dominated by gods, but it was only later that the rise of human powerhouses and the development of science and technology became more and more advanced, and those powerful gods gave up their rights and retreated into the background. Their power should not be underestimated. ”

"A more powerful god?" Qi Yuan chewed on the meaning of the word, "That...... And what about the less powerful gods? ”

"Yes, of course...... He's dead. ”

Qi Yuan was stunned.

Luo Yan explained: "The gods rely on faith to maintain their divine power, and after the enlightenment of the people's wisdom, it became difficult to obtain faith, and even many ancient gods fell into a long sleep. Where can those weak gods still live? ”

"For example, this Nanlin Star under our feet, when humans descended, the gods had already withdrawn from the stage of history for I don't know how many years, as far as I know, this planet has not given birth to any gods for more than a hundred years."

"I see." Qi Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

"If this Tourye is really an evil god who relies on fear to gain faith, then only in the primitive and barbaric society where Ru Mao drinks blood, there is room for survival." Luo Yan said helplessly: "I don't know where this Niha sect came from, and it is simply whimsical to want to develop a cult in modern society." ”

"Does this Tourje really exist?" Qi Yuan frowned and said, "I thought it was the imagination of that old madman named Colin. ”

"I originally thought that they had other purposes, and in modern society, there should be no soil for the birth of such evil gods." Luo Yan hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "Now, I can't figure it out." ”

Qi Yuan's heart sank, if this Turye really existed, then what they had to face, in addition to the 2 4th-order powerhouses, there was also a real god! Moreover, it is still the kind of god who is evil by nature and has no scruples about anything. ”

"There can't really be gods, right?" Zheng Lan said with a bitter face: "I heard that a single blow from a god can kill countless extraordinary powerhouses. We're not going to carry it like that, are we? ”

"The ones you're talking about are legendary and powerful gods." Luo Yan comforted: "Nesting in such a dark corner, even preaching has to be secret, how can you have much strength." ”

Zheng Lan said quietly: "That's not something we can deal with. ”

The three were silent.

Four people came here together, and now one of them is dead, and the remaining three are equivalent to being imprisoned. Of course, they were not reconciled. But right now, Luo Yan and Zheng Lan, the two third-order powerhouses, have a feeling of powerlessness at this time.

Neither of them put their hopes on Qi Yuan, who was less than twenty years old, and his strength and knowledge were far inferior to their little guys.

After signing the master-servant contract, even if the three of them increase in strength in the future, they can press Colin Sutton to death with one finger, and they will never want to resist his orders.

This feeling of no hope, even if both of them are well-informed, cannot help but feel a sense of despair.

By the time two third-order and one second-order beast were captured, it was not too early. They hurried back to the underground temple with the corpse of the beast before dark.

"Sure enough, the whole sect is not normal from top to bottom!" Zheng Lan dragged the corpse of the fierce beast all the way, gritted his teeth and said: "Who heard that after hunting the fierce beast, the whole corpse will be taken with you, crazy!" ”

Qi Yuan and Luo Yan are both magicians, and they are not suitable for this kind of work that requires a long time of hard work with mental power, and the three fierce beast corpses were all dragged back by her alone. The place where the beast was caught was far away from the underground temple. Zheng Lan was pulling tons of corpses alone, and even with the strength of his third-order knight, he was tired and panting.

As soon as he returned to the temple, Qi Yuan had that feeling of slowly improving his strength again.

"Try to go back here as early as possible in the future, the longer you stay, the more your cultivation will grow."

Qi Yuangang felt a little excited, and when he thought of the contract on his body, his heart became a little annoyed.

"There's no way, there's something wrong with an ancient transcendent magic being altered like this." Qi Yuan was extremely eager to get the original rune of the Colin Sutton Contract and see how it was written.

"You're doing a good job."

Colin Sutton walked out of the temple and saw the corpses of three large beasts, and his face was happy, "You two, come with me." ”

Qi Yuan frowned slightly, and together with Luo Yan, he used the floating magic to take the corpse of the fierce beast and followed Colin Sutton to the depths of the temple.

Colin Sutton stopped in front of a locked door.

"...... here" Qi Yuan's breathing suddenly became rapid, and in this place, the feeling of cultivation improvement became more and more intense!

Luo Yan frowned and said, "This place makes me feel uncomfortable, and my skin is a little tingling." ”

"Bear with it!"

Colin Sutton opened the door and said indifferently, "This is the majesty of the gods, if your faith is strong enough." There will be no complaints. ”

As soon as Qi Yuan walked in, his pupils couldn't help shrinking, the scene inside was too disgusting. The walls and the floor were covered with blood and flesh and bones. As soon as he lifted his foot, he felt that something was wrong, and when he looked down, his shoes were stained with the viscous blood of an unknown creature, and several long strands of silk were pulled out from the soles of his shoes and the ground.

"Huh?" Qi Yuan suddenly looked up, and saw a bloody mass of flesh on a building similar to an altar in the room, trembling slightly.
