Chapter 44: The Mysterious Teleportation Array

Hobbat personally put the claw key into the groove, exactly the right size, and it seemed that it was indeed the key to this groove. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The key began to glow green, causing Hobbat to withdraw his hand.

Saruman pressed his palm against Hobart's back, stopping the regressing Hobed.

"Don't panic, Commander, it's not ghoul venom. Saruman explained.

Only Saruman and the Eighth Master knew the material composition of the claw-shaped key that glowed with green light, it was a very rare magic steel that could store magical energy, and under some kind of opportunity, the magic steel would light up like it was now when it encountered the same source of magic energy.

Saruman walked into the wall of the groove where the key was placed, reached out and twisted the key, and with a click, the key turned ninety degrees with the groove.

The key, along with the groove, was then swallowed into the wall entirely, and a white stone block was pushed out to seal the gap, making it look like part of a normal stone wall from the outside.

After a while, a clear vibration began to be heard in the corners of the room, and the two large stone slabs slowly sank a few centimeters before closing into the gaps on either side, revealing a spiral stone staircase leading downward.

The slate is not very wide, and only two people can walk side by side at the same time.

Commander Hobut walked to the entrance of the passage and looked down, but it was pitch black below, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"Where's the torches to prepare? He said to one of the soldiers in the house.

Soon the torches were brought down by several soldiers, along with the head of the Templar Order, Mugil, who was investigating around the church.

Everyone discussed it for a while, and first sent someone down to investigate the situation, and the others waited for news on it.

A reconnaissance team of five soldiers led down the spiral stone staircase with torches.

The eighth master asked Ren and Mo He to wait above, and he himself went down with a few soldiers to investigate.

The spiral staircase is not high, and when the eighth master walked to the ground, he looked up at the entrance above, which was about three stories high.

At the bottom is a circular space, which is very small, only fifty or sixty square meters.

The first soldier to descend was holding a torch and inspecting the surroundings of the space.

It is surrounded by stone parapets, but there is a quaint two-man stone door with exquisite magic carvings on the frame of the door, and two stone statues with winged sharp-eared two-horned monkey faces on the left and right of the gate.

The gate was blocked by a heavy stone door, and in the middle of the stone door was a magic array glowing with green light, and in the middle of the array was the claw-shaped key that had just been inserted into the groove.

Five soldiers stood by the stone gate and waited for the eighth master to arrive.

The eighth master checked the area around the lower stone gate, except for the magic array area, there were also those two stone statues with strong magic fluctuations, and other places were very ordinary.

These two stone statues are recognized by the eighth master, the dark magician guards the gargoyle in the courtyard, and if someone tries to open the door violently, the two gargoyles will activate.

The eighth master tried to remove the key, and found that the spiral staircase gate was not closed, but the magic circle of the gate disappeared, and the groove was swallowed back.

Helplessly, the eighth master took the key up the spiral staircase, and then inserted the key into the groove in the wall.

Twisting the key 90 degrees counterclockwise closes the spiral door, and twisting it 90 degrees clockwise opens the spiral door.

The eighth master, who had mastered the rules, went down to the bottom of the spiral ladder again, and the soldiers below finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the eighth master, when the gate was closed just now, they were still a little worried.

This time, the eighth master did not take out the key on the magic array, the counterclockwise rotation was unsuccessful, and the clockwise rotation was ninety degrees, and the stone door sucked the key and groove into it again, and the door of the spiral ladder was closed at the same time.

After the spiral staircase door was completely closed, the stone door began to open, revealing a small hall, and at the end of the small hall was a stone door with a green magic array, and the magic array eye was the claw-shaped key used just now.

Everyone cautiously walked into the small hall, where there were six gargoyles squatting on the left and right walls.

It's no longer as dark and lightless inside as it is outside.

Several crystal balls as large as fists are set on the top, and the crystal balls glow with bright green light, illuminating the entire small hall.

"Illumination crystals?!" The eighth master knows the origin of these crystals, but these things are not everlasting lamps, they need the support of magical energy, and the magician will charge them inside every once in a while to continue to use them.

There are so many magic items found under such an ordinary church, and they all use this complex green magic as energy, and this magic fluctuation is similar to that of ghouls, it seems that this place is inseparable from the ghouls in the city.

After turning the key, the door closes when entering the small hall.

Then the stone door in the small hall opened, revealing a passage, only ten meters long, which could accommodate five people at the same time, and at the end of the passage was a platform.

The eighth master took a few soldiers cautiously through the passage and came to the small platform, and the entire small platform was placed in a magic array.

"Teleportation Magic Array?!Is the key to twisting the Array Eye activated?" the Eighth Master quickly analyzed the purpose of this magic array.

"Don't touch the key! I'll go to the front and take a look. ”

The eighth master reminded a few soldiers, and he walked to the edge of the platform to check.

Below the platform was the abyss, and there was no bottom in sight, so the eighth master threw the torch down and found that the torch had fallen to a deep depth, and finally the light of the torch disappeared.

I don't know if it fell too deep or if there was water underneath.

Further on, the torches in the hands of the other soldiers were empty. Even if you can't see the edge, you can't see the top, and it seems that the only way to move forward is through the teleportation array.

The destination of this teleportation array is unknown, and now there are only six people, so it is not good to continue to explore rashly, and they must go back.

The eighth master returned to the formation and pulled out the key.

The groove where the key was inserted into the eye of the array disappeared, and when he returned, the key was inserted into the groove on the middle stone door, and the passage leading to the spiral ladder was opened.

But the door on the spiral ladder is still closed, and the key is on the pillar below the spiral ladder.

The eighth master waited for the five soldiers to come out of it before pulling the key out of the pillar.

The door to the small hall closes first, and then the door to the top of the spiral staircase opens.

After the eighth master came out from under the spiral ladder, he explained the situation he had explored to the people present.

"That is, you can't get too many people in at once. And the teleportation array doesn't know where it will teleport to. ”

Hobut thought about the situation explained by the eighth master, this matter is not easy to handle.

The number of people is limited, and you can only go to a maximum of 30 people at a time.

The road ahead is unknown, there is only one key, and I rashly send ordinary soldiers to investigate, I am afraid that the key will not return. If you send elite personnel, the destination of the teleportation array is unknown, and if it is a trap, there is no return.

If you don't go, you can't do it, and if you go, you can't guarantee that the task will be completed.

There is only one key to this, and once the mission fails, I am afraid that there will be no second chance to go again.

"Without further ado, let's look around again to see if we can find the same key. ”

Hobridet instructed his soldiers to continue the search, and then he personally wrote a letter to the commander-in-chief outside the city, asking for new instructions.

After several hours of searching, no second key appeared within a 500-meter radius of the church.

Hobold told all the legions to pause the search and return to the garrison to rest, and by the way, to see the new instructions of the commander-in-chief.

When the commander-in-chief received the new instructions, everyone had already had dinner, so the regimental commanders gathered in the conference room again.

The Commander-in-Chief attaches great importance to this mission, and orders that no matter what the cost, the secrets of the mysterious teleportation array must be revealed.

The time of action was adjusted to seven days, and within seven days you had to find a way to get out, and when the time came, the city would be set on fire.

At the same time, the commander-in-chief also personally selected twenty of the most elite warriors of the legion overnight to assist Hobold in this mission, and they will enter the city tomorrow morning.

A maximum of 30 people can enter at a time, and although not all the people assigned by the commander-in-chief may be used, the candidates who enter must be specially considered.

After some more debate, the main personnel who entered the teleportation array were determined:

Twenty elite warriors sent by the Eighth Master, Mo He, Rennes, Hobut, Onelu, Mugir, Saruman, the head of the Dragon Eagle Regiment and the commander-in-chief.

There are still two places vacant, and Mugir recommends Sephie of their regiment, although she is a trainee paladin and has average skills, but her ability should come in handy.

Out of respect for Mugir and the Celestial Church behind him, neither Hobut nor anyone present questioned Sephie's ability to discuss Sephie's abilities, and agreed to Sephie's participation.

There is still one position left, and the commander of the Yellow Scorpion Regiment cannot go, and there must be a regiment commander who is responsible for the affairs of the fortifications.

"Let Rooney go with us!" the eighth master suddenly proposed, and everyone was shocked.

Even Rooney didn't expect the eighth master to propose that he participate in this mission, and he and the people present were not familiar to that extent.

Regardless of whether they are willing or not, even if they are willing to go with them, they may not be at ease that he will go with them.

"I'm against it! We can't bring a ghoul with us, who knows if it's a conspiracy for him to cooperate with us, deliberately blend in with us, and then trick everyone into the teleportation array, and then kill everyone one by one. Sure enough, Onelu was the first to stand up against it.

"I'm against it too!" Captain Onelu is right. Saruman supported Onero's claim.

"I think Wayne Rooney is a good fit! I think Wayne Rooney is a good fit. Isn't Lord Rooney's performance these days enough to show that he is willing to cooperate with us? Well, everyone involved in this meeting has the right to vote, and we will vote by secret ballot to decide whether Lord Rooney can participate in this mission. ”

Hobbat took a direct stance and proposed a vote on whether Rooney could join the mission.

The final result of the vote was: four votes in favour, three votes against and two abstentions.

Rooney narrowly secured a place in the action by one vote.

After determining the final person for action, everyone went back to their respective resting places to prepare, and when the twenty elite soldiers sent by the commander-in-chief arrived the next day, they went on a mission together.

The action is unpredictable, and it will disappear for a few days in a row, this is the first time for Sha Anna and Mo He, after appeasing for a night, it was hard to let Sha Anna sleep with the little girl, I thought I was relieved, but I saw Shui Yue's expression melancholy after communicating with the eighth master.

"How can this make you say goodbye to life and death!Alas~" Mo He sighed and lay alone on the bed thinking about the task to be carried out the next day.

A mysterious teleportation array, the destination is unknown, maybe you go and never come back.

Although Mo He knew that he was a person who had crossed over, he did not have enough awareness of death. Besides, he didn't want to die, he couldn't bear Shaanna, he couldn't bear these friends who had known each other for less than three months.

finally realized the mood of Shui Yue and Sha Anna, and Mo He fell asleep in a daze.
