Leo ignored Sean's gags that deliberately made people relax their vigilance, but looked at Sean and High Priest Denis very seriously, and said, "I have something related to everyone's safety to ask the two of you, what is the situation on the other side, how dangerous is it?"

The reason why Leo asked this question was mainly because of the powerful mysterious force that existed on the other side of the river, which made him feel terrified.

Although he didn't feel any threat from that force for the time being, and that force only repelled his spiritual network, he was not sure if everyone would encounter something as mysterious as the Black Forest after they passed, so he hoped to gather as much useful information as possible so that he could prepare in advance.

"I don't know much about what happened over there, I just found this broken bridge as a landmark according to the notes of my ancestors, and I know that there is an altar on the opposite side that requires the blood of the gods to open, and that altar is where King Yasin made divine warriors, and it is also the place where the people of the White Rose family were sacrificed, and the Seagod Scepter is left there. While talking about business, Sean became serious, explained what he knew, and then looked at the high priest of Denis next to him, and said, "The Church of Arknaya has occupied this place for more than ten years, and there are countless books and antiquities of the Nirgardians collected from here, and they should know the situation here very well. ”

"I've never been here before. As soon as Sean's words fell, High Priest Denis immediately responded.

This response made Sean stunned, and also made Leo a little puzzled, after all, the Church of Arknaya has been excavating this underground city for so long, it is impossible not to have come to this broken bridge, not to mention that this place is not very far from the laboratory area, as long as it takes a little time, it should be easy to explore here.

"Mr. Dodd, do you believe what High Priest Denis says?" said Sean to Leo with suspicion of provocation.

However, after pondering for a while, Leo gave an answer that surprised Sean again, saying, "I believe, I believe that High Priest Denis really didn't come here." ”

"Why would you believe it?" asked Sean, puzzled.

"Because there is no need for him to lie at this time. Leo replied simply, but this answer was pure nonsense, and what really made him sure that High Priest Denis was not lying because of his years of interrogation experience and the spiritual perception of the twenty spiritual base points.

And Leo's trust has also gained another gain, that is, the favor of High Priest Denis, although this favor is not enough to make the two friends, but in the next adventure, it can allow the two to cooperate more tacitly.

Although Leo had already expressed his belief in what High Priest Denis said, High Priest Denis still chose to give some explanations, saying: "We have obtained a lot of information from other urban areas, and it takes a long time and a lot of manpower just to analyze and interpret those materials, and the underground city cannot be known to the outside world, so there are not many people involved. There is no information related to this place in the books we have analyzed, only some fragments of information in other urban areas, so instead of wasting a lot of manpower and material resources on exploring unknown areas, it is more effective to focus on known places and carry out purposeful excavations. ”

Leo frowned and said, "So, no one knows what the situation is over there?"

"No, there's one thing that might help us. High Priest Denis hesitated for a moment, then said, "According to a sacrificial record written by a priest at the time in Nirgard, any altar must have two altar guards, who are the creatures of the patron deity, possess immortal life and great strength, and are the embodiment of steel. ”

"What kind of nonsense is this?" Sean looked dazed, completely taking this as a bedside word to scare the child.

On the contrary, Leo's face showed a thoughtful look, creation, immortal life, great power, and steel incarnation, which made him think of those combat robots of the Earth Federation.

At this moment, Leo's contemplative expression was not hidden, and both Sean and High Priest Denis were aware of it.

Curious, Sean pretended to be intimate, stepped forward, and asked, "Brother Leo, do you know something?"

"Don't call me brother, I'm definitely not as old as you, and our relationship is not enough to call us brothers, let's call each other according to the etiquette we should have!" Leo wasn't in the mood to make friends with this guy with more than a dozen hearts, so he directly blocked Sean's trap, and then didn't ask anything else, but walked between Jason and them to clean up the battlefield together.

High Priest Denis, who was born in Cage City, has been accustomed to finding useful things from corpses since he was a child, and even though his identity has made him no longer have to pick up corpses over the years, this habit of going deep into the bone marrow still exists, so seeing that Leo has nothing to ask, he also takes the initiative to collect the items on the corpse.

Sean holds his own identity, of course, he doesn't want to do this kind of thing that is considered underneath, not to mention that these corpses are all his subordinates, but everyone else is doing things here, and he sits there alone, which makes him feel isolated, and eventually he also has to start his first cleaning of the battlefield.

Soon, everything that could be used on the corpse had been cleaned out and piled up in different categories.

Under Leo's assignment, all the medicine was given to Catherine and Nelson, and the others only had some wound medicine with them.

Weapons such as a repeater each had one, Nelson's military uniform had a better crossbow for the current one, and each person also had a melee weapon such as a short knife.

As for Sean's huge ammunition-consuming repeater, it was also confiscated and replaced with a mechanical repeater, and those precious special bullets were taken away by Leo.

In addition, some of the ropes and rollers used for climbing were given to Jason and Leo, and the other ropes were each put on a bundle in case of emergency.

After making these preparations, Leo and the others came to the broken bridge. The rope that was built before is still there, but the roller that assists the bridge is not tied to it itself, or because of the psionic wave just now, it has fallen into the abyss below.

The person who had climbed to the opposite side before was now gone, perhaps the spiritual energy wave just now was transmitted to the opposite side, which also affected the people over there, even if he didn't die on the spot, I'm afraid he would be unconscious.

Leo stretched out his hand and tugged at the rope next to him, felt the fixation of the rope, then put the equipment on his body aside, and went into battle as lightly as possible, holding only a few necessary tools for building the ropeway, and climbed the rope under the gaze of everyone.

For Leo, climbing such a rope is as easy as eating and drinking, and if it weren't for the fact that he would not be too shocking, he would even be able to cross the rope bridge of more than 50 meters in just a few seconds.

Luckily, however, Leo didn't make any dangerous and quick moves to climb the rope, because as he reached the middle of the rope, the edge of the area where the mysterious force shrouded him, he felt a chill suddenly sweep over him.

This chill has no effect on him, but for those who are not mentally prepared or have a slightly poor physique, it may cause his hands and feet to temporarily appear numb and stiff and other abnormal reactions, and in mid-air, people can only rely on their hands and feet to fix their bodies, numbness in their hands and feet means that they can't hold the rope, which means that they will fall into the abyss.

Leo made a note of the location and reminded them to be careful when he had set up a ropeway on the opposite side and pulled the others over.

The chill quickly disappeared, and Leo did not show any other discomfort in his body, and he quickly came to the opposite side with the speed of his crawling.

After getting off the rope, Leo immediately checked his surroundings.

On the side of the broken bridge, there is also a square, surrounded by the same shrines and stone pillars, the only difference here is that the things here are still well preserved, even the statue in the center of the square is intact.

In addition, there is no passage at the edge of the square facing the broken bridge, but a bronze door about five meters high and four meters wide, because the surface of this bronze door has been rusted due to years of moisture corrosion, and the unique copper smell can be clearly smelled at the broken bridge on this side of the square.

At first glance, the surrounding scene did not seem strange, but Leo became extremely alert at the moment, and pulled the king from his waist and drew a battle axe at the same time.

In fact, at this time, it is more appropriate to use the flintlock hand cannon, but unfortunately the flintlock hand cannon is too heavy, in order not to add to the burden on the rope, he can only put it in other equipment that needs to be transported separately, so that now he can only use the king's psionic weapon, which has not yet been fully mastered.

Leo, with a gun in one hand and an axe in the other, swept his gaze around, and the reason why he became so alert was entirely because there was one thing missing from the Broken Bridge, and that was the corpse of the Inge man who had already come here before.

"Leo, what's wrong with you?" Maybe seeing Leo pass, there was no movement, and the people here began to be a little anxious, and Jason's inquiry immediately sounded in this empty place.

"There are some minor issues here, I'll talk about it when I fix it. Leo replied loudly, and then tried to unfold the spirit web.

However, things were as he expected, his spiritual net was only agitated under the scalp, and there was no way to send it out of the body at all.

"An unknown high-energy force field has been discovered, and preliminary analysis has repulsive properties, is non-absorbable, and can be used for psionic replenishment. ”

After losing the better spiritual network, Leo could only choose to turn on the spiritual vision, and the moment he turned on the spiritual vision, he immediately gained something.

Night vision, farsightedness and other vision abilities make it easy for him to see the details of things around him, and what really gives him the most is that he can see the spiritual energy around him and the objects attached to the spiritual energy.

I saw Leo's gaze fall directly on the sculpture in the center of the square, and under the effect of his spiritual vision skills, this statue that was obviously only carved out of stone exuded a strong spiritual aura.

Thinking of the mention by High Priest Denis that there would be a patron saint around the altar of the Nirgardians, who would be responsible for guarding the safety of the altar, coupled with the Inges who had just disappeared just now, and the psionic energy on the statue now, Leo had every reason to place his suspicion on this seemingly harmless stone statue.

"Bang!" Leo didn't even think about approaching the statue, and directly lifted the king and shot the statue in the head.

A special bullet enhanced by a psionic weapon instantly struck the statue's head, and the exploding shrapnel shattered its head.

However, the expected situation did not materialize, and the statue did not react to the attack, which made Leo, who was already waiting for the battle, feel a little puzzled.

At that moment, the statue that had lost its head instantly jumped up from its pedestal, its chest splitting up and down to form a large mouth full of sharp teeth, and pounced on Leo.

Although the attack was a few seconds later than expected, it did not have any effect on Leo, and almost at the moment when the statue jumped, Leo had already reacted, instantly raised his gun, and fired four shots at the statue's four, breaking the limbs, leaving only a body flying a short distance in the air and falling heavily to the ground.

Leo deliberately didn't aim his gun at the statue's torso when he attacked, he needed to study what it was, so he knocked off its limbs, made it lose its ability to move, and then slowly concocted it.

The statue that only left the torso did not lose its kinetic energy, but because of the large amount of weak spiritual energy attached to the bullet fragments that entered the torso, it produced effects such as radio wave interference, which made the spiritual energy wrapped around the torso of the stone sculpture very chaotic and disorderly, directly causing this torso to twitch like a real person.

As for the severed limbs, they all turned back to the appearance of ordinary stones because they were separated from the torso, which was the core of the psionic energy, and fell to the ground, breaking into several pieces.

"Leo, what's wrong with you over there?" Hearing the sound of gunshots coming from the other side, Jason and the others immediately asked loudly with concern.

"It's all right, a little trouble, it's been solved!" Leo replied loudly, withdrawing the shell from the king's interior and reloading the five ammo, then looked around, and after noticing no other dangerous objects around, he walked straight to the pedestal of the statue.

I saw that there was a loose stone slab on this pedestal, and some blood could be seen spilling out of the gap in the stone slab.

Leo stretched out his hand to lift the slate, and saw that the Inger who had not been seen before was stuffed into the hole of the pedestal, and the whole person had been completely twisted and deformed due to the squeezing of external forces, and the blood was squeezed out of the body, and flowed into a special conveyor channel through some holes at the bottom of the pestal, and finally I don't know where it flowed, but one thing is for sure that this is definitely not a good thing.

After finding no other useful clues on the base of the statue, Leo returned to the broken bridge, hung the roller he had brought with him on the rope, connected a rope to pull the roller, checked the rope again, and then put the roller back on the opposite bank, picked up the wall lamp that had just been placed on the ground and shook it a few times, signaling that it was time to come.
