Chapter 111: The Altar!

"Illumination!"

A bright light flashed on Queiroz's shield, illuminating the range within five meters, but Ron, who was walking in the front, didn't need it, because both Broken Tooth and Ron had dark vision, and could see images nearly twenty meters away in the dark.

Like the exterior of the palace, the corridors are made of gray rock, about four meters wide and three meters high, which can be said to be quite tall according to the size of the goblin, but for humans, it is only possible to walk three people side by side.

In order to guard against danger, the Elven Knight of Alamir immediately stepped forward to stand side by side with Queiroz, while protecting Ron, who was exploring the way, within the range of the Light Technique.

"There's a humanoid in front of you, and you can smell it with broken teeth!"

Announcing everyone in lingua franca, Ron slapped Broken Tooth's head and motioned for it to slow down.

The corridor is quite slender and continues to descend, and although it is winter, the stone walls are slowly damp, and even in the deep darkness, you can hear the sound of water dripping.

In Ron's eyes, the red dots representing humanoids flickered at the edge of the orbits, and combined with the current range of Ron Hunter's detection ability, Ron knew that there were humanoids about a hundred meters ahead.

However, as in the game, the Hunter's detection ability is only able to perceive the type of creature within a certain range, and cannot confirm what kind of creature it is. Just like the humanoid tracking that Ron has started now, he can sense all the humanoids in range, but he can't tell if it's a goblin or another humanoid.

"Everyone, be on alert!"

"I feel the smell of evil getting stronger!"

Compared to Queiroz, Alamir, as an elf, felt more keen, and felt the aggravation of the evil aura, and he immediately lowered his voice to remind everyone - it was not only Queiroz and Alamir who followed Ron into the underground passage, but also ten church knights, half human and half elf.

Cautiously moving forward, a distance of 100 meters was enough to march in the vigilance of everyone for more than ten minutes, during which Ron did not see the movement of the red dot in his eye socket, but slowly approached as everyone advanced.

Then, at the end of the corridor, the light of the Luminoluminescence shone into a large hall, pale and cold with the skulls of many creatures hanging from the gray-white stone gate, while a slow vapor condensed on the skull and fell into droplets.

"Intruder!"

And with the light of the light spell, the skull eye sockets on the gray and white rock gate suddenly lit up with green phosphorescence, and at the same time opened and closed to make an alarm sound, so, from the hall on the inside of the gate, dozens of skeletons with the same green light flashing green in their eyes got up, shook the weapons in their hands, and walked towards Ron and his party who were approaching.

Obviously, there are a mix of these types, including goblin bones and skeletons turned from the bones of other creatures, who are the guards of this hall.

"Destroy the Evil Slash!"

"Meteor Impact!"

Paladins have a lot less spells than priests, but are more inclined to fight necromancy. The Knight of Queiroz took a step forward, guarding Ron and Broken Fang behind him, his sword flashing white, and he swung a brilliant white rainbow that slashed at the skeletons in front of him.

The Chant of the Elven Knight of Alamir was a little longer, and the golden-red flames attached to his weapon erupted violently with a swing, destroying all remaining necromancy.

Before it was Ron's turn to make a move, the two knight chiefs attacked, and the necromancers guarding the hall were immediately destroyed, especially the [Meteor Impact] of the Alamir Elven Knights, which not only wiped out the undead, but even burned all the pale heads in the hall.

"There are humanoids in the hall!"

Without even a chance to shoot a bolt to rub some life essence, the battle was over, and Ron stepped through the gate along with the two knight captains.

The stench and blood are coming to your face!

On the damp floor of the hall, dozens of nearly decomposing human corpses crisscrossed the ground, most of them wearing the insignia of adventurers - apparently all adventurers registered with the Ascatra Adventure Guild, who were exterminated by the goblins instead on the mission to exterminate the goblins.

The death of such a number of adventurers is a big blow to the adventurer union of Askatra, although most of the deaths are low-level adventurers, but they are the foundation of the guild, and most of the low-level tasks need to be completed by them.

However, it was not the corpses that attracted everyone's attention even more, but a huge altar at the end of the hall, which was made entirely of white bones, with six towering white bone crosses erected, on which hung six female adventurers of Akako.

Their clothes were stripped off, their bellies were slashed open, and blood was flowing down the cross, but the most bizarre thing was that although these female adventurers were slashed open and their entrails were overflowing, they did not die, they were still writhing slightly on the white bone cross, and even their faces showed a look of satisfaction and serenity.

"It's an evil god sacrifice, and it's the most evil living sacrifice!"

Queiroz's face had a solemn and disgusted look.

The demons and evil gods of the Abyss need sacrifices, and they crave sacrifices, and if they can, they love to do the living sacrifices they ask for at this moment.

Demons and evil spirits are attentive to their followers and often encourage them to sacrifice, and in reaping the power of the sacrifices, they often reward their own power to those who sacrifice to them, although this power often lasts only for a short time.

"Put them down, and smash the altar!"

There were no signs of the evil gods on the altar - apparently erased after the ritual was completed, but the two chief knights had memorized the appearance and breath of the living sacrifice, and when they returned to the surface, they would report to the upper echelons of their respective churches, and the archbishop would confirm the identity of the evil spirit.

At the head of the Elven Knights of Alamir, the Church Knights quickly stepped forward to knock down the bone cross, lowering the hanging female adventurer while covering themselves with mercy.

But they were weakened by the destruction of the altar and lost their lives in a matter of minutes.

Ron was also involved in the destruction of the altar, but his tiny body didn't do much.

In fact, Ron didn't think much of a role either.

Bursts of heat emanated from the back of the Earthwalking Dragon's leather armor, reminding Ron that there were items he could use at this altar.

Pretending to smash the altar together, Ron scurried back and forth through the pile of bones, eventually holding a small, sharp fang in his front paws.
