Chapter 9: The Third Layer

After the magic array was completed, I also got together with Avril and looked nervously at the sarcophagus not far away. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After the magic array was penetrated, it was no longer hidden and revealed. A burst of silver light shimmered, then vanished again.

"What's the matter, did it fail?" Avril couldn't help but ask softly when she saw that the magic array had disappeared and the sarcophagus had not been opened directly.

Without waiting for Wei Youfang to answer, a light began to flash in the sarcophagus.

Each flash of light also made Wei Youfang and Avril's hearts beat with it, echoing its rhythm.

The flickering frequency of the sarcophagus's light accelerated over time, and Wei Youfang and Avril's heartbeats were about to explode.

After a while, the light flickered rapidly, and then disappeared violently.

In Wei Youfang's expectation, at this time, there should be a big monster with its own terrifying BGM jumping out of the sarcophagus, and then shouted excitedly, "You stupid mortals, you actually released the great XX Your Excellency, haha, as a thank you, let me eat you, let you become a part of my body." ā€

After that, of course, it was a story that a monster and a couple of men and women had to tell.

But the expectation is the prediction, and it has nothing to do with reality.

The sarcophagus flickered with light, then the light disappeared, and the sarcophagus opened, and with it there were no monsters, a deathly silence.

Wei Youfang glanced at Avril, gave her a look, and motioned for him to stand still and walk towards the sarcophagus.

Walking to the edge of the sarcophagus, Wei Youfang mustered up the courage to look into the sarcophagus, he was ready to be frightened, but this preparation was useless in the end.

There are no monsters in hair, just a staircase that leads to the bottom.

Seeing such a scene, Wei Youfang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but there was inevitably a trace of disappointment in his heart.

"Come on, there are no monsters, it's just a staircase that leads below. Wei Youfang turned around and said to Avril.

After Avril heard Wei Youfang's words, she was obviously stunned, and her eyes were inevitably a little disappointed.

Humans are indeed a contradictory race, fearful of danger on the one hand, and disappointed in the blandness on the other.

It can also be said that humans are a greedy race, and on the one hand, they are unwilling to face danger. On the other hand, I want to satisfy my curiosity.

"Let's go to the third floor, maybe there's something inside. Wei Youfang pulled the stunned Avril over, and then said.

Somehow, Avril actually felt a kind of comfort from Wei Youfang's ordinary words.

The meaning of this is that I should not give up hope, maybe there are monsters on the third layer?

When Avril thought of this, she couldn't help but laugh at the strange mentality of the two.

Wei Youfang saw a slight smile on Avril's face, and felt a little strange, but he didn't care too much, signaled Avril, and then took the lead to walk down the steps.

The third floor is not as large as the second floor, but it is a little larger than the first floor.

"Come on. After Wei Youfang came to the third layer, he hurriedly urged Avril to arrive, "What do you see is that?"

Avril hurried two steps, and then saw what Wei Youfang was pointing at a glance.

Nature is not a big monster, but a huge statue.

"Medusa!" Avril suddenly shouted when she saw the statue.

Wei Youfang looked at Avril with some surprise, "Do you know what kind of monster this is?"

In Wei Youfang's opinion, it is indeed a monster with a human head and a snake body.

"Monsters, perhaps. Listening to Wei Youfang's words, Avril was a little stunned, and then her voice dropped a lot, "She does look like a monster now, but he was a very beautiful human before. ā€

Wei Youfang looked at Avril's appearance, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that this Medusa has some other story?

"Can you tell me about it?" Wei Youfang pulled Avril's sleeve and asked.

Avril looked at Wei Youfang and nodded.

"It's a tragedy. ā€

"Medusa was originally an ordinary priest of the goddess of wisdom. ā€

"But she's so pretty. ā€

"Once, when the god of the sea passed by the temple of the goddess of wisdom, he saw her, and then coveted her beauty, so he took her in the temple of the goddess of wisdom. ā€

Later, the goddess of wisdom was angry that the god of the sea did such a thing in his temple, but because she could not sanction the god of the sea, the goddess of wisdom turned the ordinary priest who was ** into the monster he is now. ā€

Hearing this, Wei Youyi couldn't help but speak.

"What kind of bastard logic is this? Isn't Medusa a victim? Why does the Goddess of Wisdom punish her, what is the Goddess of Wisdom for doing this, the Goddess of Stupidity is pretty much the same. ā€

"Do you think in the eyes of the gods what a human being is? is it his servant? No, but an ant who kneels down and begs for mercy and alms, do you think they will care about the ants' feelings?" Avril smiled when she saw Wei Youfang's indignant appearance, and then continued to speak.

"After Medusa was cursed by the goddess of wisdom, all the men who saw Medusa's eyes would be drained of all their life force, and eventually turned into stone statues, Medusa fled to the underworld alone in order not to harm the world, but in the end, she was chased as a monster by an angry young man who claimed to be righteous and wanted to promote evil and punish good, and finally Medusa was killed by the angry youth. ā€

"Under normal circumstances, the adjectives you just used are those who claim to be righteous, shouldn't the characters as definitions be background characters?

Hearing Wei Youfang's statement, Avril smiled, and then said: "Legend has it that it is because Medusa fell in love with this angry young man, on the one hand, she wanted to fulfill this angry young man, and on the other hand, she also wanted to end her painful life, so she ....."

"So let the water go, I understand this, I just don't understand why Medusa would like such a man. "The story is tragic, but after all, it is just a story for Wei Youfang, and too much anger is of no use other than affecting himself.

"No one knows, love has always been a thing for no reason. Avril shook her head, as if with some emotion.

"Okay, don't think about that, since you know so much about it, why do you think there is this statue here?" Wei Youfang put down the story, returned to reality, and asked.

"Many people know the story of Medusa, and later there were some human beings who did not believe in gods, and on the grounds of rebelling against the gods, they took Medusa as their own god and established some sects. However, none of these sects resisted the sweep of the Bright God Sect, but they were not completely exterminated, and they popped up for a while every once in a while, so this sect didn't have a specific name, anyway, they had a different name every time they appeared. Avril said.
