There is an abyss under Paris, and this news is not unheard of by Bishop Sulli. The construction of the castles and cathedrals in Paris required a large amount of stone, and most of this stone was excavated from the underground of Paris, so that a deep tunnel stretched for dozens of miles, intermittently, with dozens of entrances. However, the quarrying stonemasons have said that this tunnel was definitely not the first to be excavated by humans, and some of the hollowed-out, small rooms resembling stone houses have a large number of frescoes, the colors of which have changed, and most of them depict creatures and plants that have never been heard of. In fact, not only human stonemasons, but also dwarves once excavated a quarry face in this tunnel.

However, it was only a quarry face that had been excavated, and the dwarves had just finished it centuries earlier and had left the tunnel. There are also those who believe that the dwarves did not leave, that they disappeared into the depths of the tunnel, or that they were consumed by some strange life. In short, the dwarves appeared suddenly, mined for no reason, and then mysteriously disappeared. Later humans didn't spend any extra effort to possess this inexplicable excellent quarry face, and if it weren't for the fact that someone later discovered the dwarves' tools, no one would know that those dwarves had ever been here.

In the subsequent repairs to the walls and churches of Paris, as well as to the Royal Palace, the tunnel was constantly expanded, and more stones were transported from the ground. Correspondingly, the entire tunnel was repeatedly expanded, and the road continued to diverge, eventually turning into a huge underground labyrinth that would have been lost without the Masons Guild leading the way. Not only that, but even with the leadership of the Stonemasons Association. Or those stonemasons. There are many times when you get lost in such a labyrinth.

It's a strange tunnel. Think about it, near the banks of the Seine, where there are so many solid stones under what should be soft soil. This sounds like a gift from the Lord to mankind to have a prosperous city, but even Archbishop Suri can't help but secretly ask, "For what?" ”

Dwarves and elves have not built their own castles in Paris, so why is this unique condition left to humans? Because these alien beings are stupid? Archbishop Surrey, of course, would not have such thoughts, he believed. The only explanation is that there are untouchable secrets in the underground of Paris. At least Archbishop Surrey knew that some of the bodies of stonemasons were found less than a few dozen yards from the exit, and these stonemasons looked to have been dead for years, but the bodies were not decomposed. Archbishop Suri has also seen several terrible stones that have been excavated, and the reason why they are terrible is because there are actually living human corpses in these stones. No one knows how these humans got into these stones, and the entire underground tunnel is like a giant monster, silently devouring the life that enters the tunnel.

But the rest of humanity doesn't know this. Or rather, the stone that is so easy to mine blinds them. The stonemasons are still digging underground, getting closer and closer to the untouchable secret.

Archbishop Suri didn't know what that secret was and what kind of disaster it would bring. And now, when Xiao Yan suddenly talked about the abyss underground in front of the archbishop, this news was enough to make the sixty-year-old archbishop creepy.

"Have mercy on your Lamb, O my Lord. Your Majesty Palin, I have to say that this is the second terrible news I have heard this year. Not even less than the fall of the Holy Land, tell me, what are you going to do? ”

Hearing Archbishop Su Li's inquiry, Xiao Yan smiled and said, "I'm going to go in, take a look at that abyss, and then see if there is a way to solve this trouble." ”

The Archbishop of Paris drew a cross on his chest and said: "Praise, praise my Lord, you will surely become a hero of Paris, Your Majesty Palin." This is true regardless of whether you are able to dispose of that abyss or not. The faithful of Paris will be grateful for your courage and fearlessness, and the Lord will surely look after your piety. Praise. ”

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Okay, there is an old saying in the East, that the more things are delayed, the worse it will be, if possible, I want to enter this underground passage tonight to see the situation there." The abyss may be there, but we don't know it, so the sooner we find those, the better it will be for us. ”

Archbishop Su Li agreed with Xiao Yan's suggestion, he turned his head to look at a knight standing beside him, and said, "Please come your captain, I think His Majesty Palin needs sufficient assistance. If the Abyss does exist, we can't let His Majesty Palin fight alone. ”

The knight, who was a little familiar with Xiao Yan's decoration, saluted slightly, and then strode away. Looking at the knight's back, Archbishop Suri introduced, "This is the Knights of the Holy Lance. Before the First Crusade, the Knights of the Holy Crown were disbanded in order to provide sufficient combat effectiveness, and then two orders were established on the basis of the Knights of the Holy Crown, one is the Knights Hospitaller, who are still fighting in Asia Minor, and the other is now the Knights of the Holy Spear. ”

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, did not speak, and soon, the knight walked in with a thin knight, this knight did not wear a helmet, even the armor seemed to be specially made, obviously smaller than the surrounding knights. If you follow the algorithm of the real world, this knight captain is only about 1.6 meters, which can be regarded as a short man. But as he walked, the power of the coercion made even the candles in the room flicker. In addition, the most obvious feature of his body is not his size, but the greatsword that does not match this size at all. It was a heavy sword that was too large even in Laikaon's hand, and it seemed to be longer than even the height of the knight captain, and as for the width, it could be used as a shield. The heavy sword was lightly carried in the hand of the Knight Captain, and it looked no different from carrying a branch.

His hair was also very short, with a bit of a staggered feel in the real world, his hair was almost gray, and with his pale, bloodless face, he looked like an albinist. Unlike the knights who kept their faces in heavy helmets, the captain of the short knights was not afraid to show their faces. His eyes were slightly narrowed, as if he was afraid of candlelight, and his pale blue pupils kept swimming in the squinted eyes, as if he could observe all the scenes around him in the blink of an eye, and then make judgments. In addition, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, which reminded Xiao Yan of a famous painting. When he looked up and saw Xiao Yan, there seemed to be an impact of ice and fire intersecting in his eyes.

By the light of the candles, the captain of the knights walked up to the archbishop, bowed slightly, and then said: "Praise the Lord, let me hear, make me obedient, let me know, let me be brave." I already know your conversation with His Majesty Palin, and if you really can find that abyss, I will not let Your Majesty fight alone. Even if the Knights of the Holy Lance in Paris are all thrown into it, we will defend the glory of the Lord. ”

Archbishop Surrey stretched out his hand and drew a cross in the air, and the holy water flowed out of his fingers out of thin air, and was thrown into the air by him, and finally landed on the body of the knight captain. After the archbishop had finished his prayer, he said, "All right, Lord Silas, please act as soon as possible, I am here to hear from you." Remember, whatever happens, whatever you see, let us know as soon as possible, the safety of Paris is in your hands. ”

Captain Silas drew a cross on his chest as well, knelt down on one knee, held the heavy sword in his hand, and whispered a few words of prayer. Then he stood up, looked at Xiao Yan and said, "Your Majesty Palin, are we going now?" ”

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "I'll give you my back, Captain Knight." ”

Silas bowed slightly and said, "Yes, it's an honor." You're bound to find that there was nothing wrong with this decision. ”

The greetings between the two sides ended, and several people quickly left the courtyard where Xiao Yan was and walked to the church not far away. Like all construction sites, the east side of the cathedral, which was officially rebuilt in 1165, has access to an underground tunnel that allows the stonemasons to haul the quarried stone nearby. At this time, it was close to midnight, and the gate of the passage that had been closed was opened early, and the two stonemasons who had just been brought were still yawning, and looking at their coats, they knew that when the Knights of the Holy Lance brought them, the two stonemasons were probably still in their dreams.

Seeing Silas's arrival, the stonemason, who was still a little sleepy, shook suddenly, and the two of them made themselves stand at the same time, as for those sleepy, they had already been thrown away.

"We need to go in, into the deepest part of this tunnel, and we've been told that you know best what is going on in this tunnel."

Silas said bluntly, "Tell me, what's in the deepest part of this tunnel?" ”

The two stonemasons looked at each other and wanted to say something, but Silas's hands were already glowing, and the knight captain said calmly, "Don't try to deceive me, the Lord will prove for me whether you are a lie or a truth." Deceive the Knights of the Holy Lance, and you will know what the consequences will be. ”

This threat is succinct and powerful. One of the stonemasons fell to his knees and said loudly, "My lord, this tunnel is only the first level. ”

Silas's eyes narrowed suddenly, and then he asked, "This is a piece of news that I've never heard of, tell me, how many floors are there in this tunnel?" ”

"I don't know what to do, my lord, the deepest part we can reach is about 7 floors, but there must be more below 7 floors, but we don't have the courage to continue deeper." (To be continued......)
