"The Principle of Illusion, that must have recorded the method of cracking the illusion mechanism in this temple!" Tarrant could not control the excitement in his heart, and he saw a glimmer of hope in the half-burned and broken scroll, which symbolized the most precious hope for those who were close to despair.

"Don't be too happy, I may not be able to read the words on it", the mage did not have much confidence because he did not study the ancient characters deeply, "open it and take a look." ”

Compared with the mage's lack of confidence, Tarrant has a lot of trust in her knowledge in this area, "I believe this is not a problem for you to be worthy of the title of great master", he turned the spine of the book and turned the first page as carefully as possible, but unfortunately the page was still pinched into powder between his fingers, obviously underestimated, he complained: "It's too thin, it's weathered strictly, I'm afraid it will be ...... to open it"

"I can't read," said Katrina, regretfully, "and the handwriting and pages are ruined." ”

Tarrant continued to pinch the next page unwillingly, as soon as his thumb touched the page, several sheets were broken together, the mage was right, he couldn't read it, his palm was a little hard, the whole book was pinched into powder and fell from his fingers, the hope of survival came and fell suddenly, and there was no time to prepare, Tarrant had to suppress the depression in his heart and cheer up, "Okay, it's time to try another way." ”

Katrina lowered her head, "I don't know how many chances there are", she has already walked three roads in a row, except for the mechanism and monsters, nothing of value has been found, and the hope of going out is slowly being extinguished, and she is beginning to lose heart.

Inexperienced adventurers will choose to admit defeat in advance, and adventurers who have been away all year round have a better understanding of this, the more difficult the situation, the stronger the need for strong survival, Rex encouraged loudly: "Katrina, unpredictable difficulties will inevitably arise in wild adventures, every adventurer needs to go through a forging period of self-affirmation, you must uphold a belief: the will is not extinguished, and hope lasts forever." My team has encountered more dangerous and terrible situations, relying on the belief of never giving up to survive until now, the situation here is only a trivial difficulty, let's use it as survival training for the Institute. ”

A dry smile erupted on Katrina's pale face, "Will not be extinguished...... Hope lasts forever, I see, and let's get on the road. ”

The team adjusts and returns to the lobby.

Kitty looked at the mage and thought of a topic, "Tell me your story in the city", she smiled, "I have lived in this forest for as long as I can remember, and there were very few adventurers here, and you can see hares and squirrels everywhere, it must be different from your life in the city......"

She talks about the tranquility of nature, a sight absolutely not found in the city, and Katrina is quickly drawn into it, discussing life in the forest with Kitty, and she is finally relieved by the druid's optimism.

The four of them walked out of the aisle and walked to the left not long before they came to the fourth passageway, the wide entrance surrounded by broken wave carvings, giving a more grand feel, and its function must be more important than the other rooms.

This reminded Tarrant of a detail, "Kitty, do you remember the posture of the statue of the Great Hall?"

Kitty stopped the discussion and carefully recalled, "The idol pose, yes, a mage with a book. ”

"Oh?" Tarrant didn't remember any of this, he didn't remember anything as he rolled off the idol, he only felt the bulging hard object everywhere, and completely "massaged" his whole body, if it weren't for Rex's healing skills, he would need a sturdy stretcher at the moment.

"I remember very well that the idol was staring in this direction, with his left hand stretched forward and his right hand holding an open book. ”

Taran nodded, at that time Kitty was still in the state of a wolf, a night vision animal, and he also got the message he wanted, "The idol is facing this passage, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"That means that this is the main passage of the temple, a place to worship the gods", the common sense of the temple's structure, Tarrant let out a sigh of relief as he unloaded his burden, "They shouldn't set traps in the main passage, right?"

"It's hard to say, be careful first", Rex entered the passage.

Tarrant hurried to catch up with the torch in his hand, "Stay in formation, I'll go ahead", he always took on the task of taking arrows in the mixed teams, and it was a matter of course.

The team moved cautiously through the main passage, and found no suspicious circumstances along the way, and Tarrant, who led the way, began to speed up, believing that there were no traps here, and there would be no exit at the end, and its main function was for worshippers to pray to the main god, and it should not be much to gain.

There was a sinking at the top, Tarrant stopped, the torch shone through, it was a step to place the transom, but there was no transverse on it, he moved to the left, saw some vague font, and there was still a mechanism prompt, "Katrina, here." ”

The mage looked up, "It's their words." ”

"What is written?"

“...... Confront...... Myself...... I'm not sure about the words that follow", the mage was slightly apologetic.

"Facing yourself? is implying that the next hallucinations or mechanisms have something to do with you?" Tarrant said literally.

Rex estimated the length of the steps, "These are just the first two words in a warning, and it doesn't help to understand half of them." ”

"That's right, let's contact those two words when we encounter the agency," Tarrant boldly stepped forward.

At the end of the wide hallway, not far away, a half-collapsed arch, the structure of the wall was exposed, it was a solid wall, there was no sign of a mechanism, Tarrant stepped on the mud and stone into the room, the space inside was hemispherical, the height was beyond the field of vision, it should have been a solemn and sacred place before, he took a step, and the ground echoed slightly.

His teammates followed him into the room, and the sound of footsteps echoed through the room, making it particularly harsh.

"Do you guess there will be a passage?" Tarrant waved the air in front of him with his left hand, and there was an inexplicable strange smell that seemed to be rotting.

Rex suddenly grabbed Tarrant's right elbow from behind, "Wait", he leaned his ear forward, as if he heard something abnormal, everyone held their breath, and there was no movement in the darkness ahead.

"What did you hear?" Tarrant asked quietly, leaning closer to Rex.

"Footsteps, ahead. ”

"I heard it too," Kitty on the left side confirmed in a low voice.

"Footsteps?" Tarrant's nerves tensed, if there were really footsteps, the other party would never appear as a friend, his five fingers expanded to test the recovery of his limbs, fortunately, his strength had recovered somewhat, he slowly pulled out his katana from his belt, and guessed in his heart about a possible new friend.

There was no sound on the other side, and after a few seconds of confrontation with the darkness, Tarrant began to waver, and he looked back to his left and right, "I didn't hear anything. ”

"The sound source just now is very close, about ten meters", Rex moved to the right, he was adjusting his position, if there was a battle, the longer the distance could be more comfortable to cast spells to aid the paladin, if the perception was correct, the distance with the other party was very close.

Tarrant moved his wrist, "You wait where you are", he bowed and walked forward, the katana blocked in front of the torch, a figure suddenly came out of the darkness, Tarrant rushed out of the katana, and the two weapons had a crisp "bell"!
