Chapter 283: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas

March 4.

Outside the safe route, on a mysterious island.

Crane and Alger cautiously made their way through the forest, exploring the ruins deep within the island.

But despite their caution, some dangers came very suddenly.

Syllable!

With the sound of dry branches being trampled, Crane stopped in Alger's surprised gaze.

His heart tightened inexplicably, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood up one by one.

This is a strong sense of danger!

And in such a hunch, there is no corresponding picture in Klein's mind!

Without thinking about what was happening, he reached out and grabbed Alger's shoulder, and without hesitation, he opened the magic book he was carrying, turning the page to one of the pages, and the symbols and mystical patterns depicted on it belonged to 'travel'.

The figures of the two quickly became transparent, disappeared in place, and entered the spiritual realm with rich color blocks and clear superimposition, and quickly shuttled in the direction of the ancient ruins.

When the two of them left the spirit realm and returned to reality, they landed in an area of rubble and weeds, and not far away was a half-collapsed building. They leaped over the invisible boundaries and into the area around the ancient ruins.

In the corner of Klein's eye, the 'Hanged Man' has turned gray from the waist down, like a stone carving!

Bang!

Both of them landed at the same time, and there was the sound of a stone hitting a stone.

The thick shadow in their hearts vanished, and the danger lurking in the darkness around them receded like a tidal wave.

Call...... Klein breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the gray that had spread to the crook of the elbow was fading and retracting little by little, and he felt that the condition of his body was rapidly recovering after being detached from the corresponding environment.

His vest, drenched in sweat, had soaked his shirt.

At this time, Alger also got rid of the grayness, looked back at the place where he came, and said in a deep voice:

"That area is petrifying us."

"I've been here a few times, but I've never been in such danger before."

Crane nodded thoughtfully, trying to show the calmness of a 'mad adventurer', but in fact his heart was full of fear.

If he hadn't rented this magic book from Miss Magician in advance, they would have been petrified without the blessing of transmission!

The island was far more dangerous than he had imagined!

Klein even had a faint regret in his heart, but he didn't want to leave like that.

Klein and Alger looked at each other, and quickly determined what the other had in mindβ€”

It's all here, so let's go in and have a look before leaving.

The two soon walked up the exaggerated gray-white stone steps to the doorway, and saw the remnants of classical stone pillars and concentric multi-layered arches.

The walls of the ruins are covered with numerous frescoes, most of which are related to the ancient sun god.

As Alger said, the ruins were like a church, a church of the ancient sun god.

But why would such a church appear on a deserted island? It can't be those transcendent creatures out there who believe in the ancient sun god, right?

The two went deeper and deeper, through the ruins, through the steps at the end of the hall to the underground area.

In the underground area, they found a much larger number of frescoes, as well as a large number of stone statues with distorted faces, full of pain and despair!

They were all living people, humans, elves and giants, but they were all petrified.

Judging by the petrified area, it's still a long way from this ruin!

This means that either the owner of the petrified area once inhabited the ruins, or the statues were artificially moved after being petrified!

Klein prefers the latter option, as the placement of these stone statues is clearly deliberate!

He didn't think that these people would deliberately find a good place to petrify before they were petrified.

But who would do such a thing?

"Is there anyone else living on the island? Or is there really a transcendent creature who worships the ancient sun god? ”

Klein's mind was full of confusion, but before he could think about it, he suddenly heard a dull sound coming from far and near.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground trembled slightly, becoming more and more obvious, and then, Crane saw a figure nearly four meters tall walking out in front of him.

It is also grayish-white in color, with carapace-like patterns carved on its surface, a goat's pointed horns on its head, and a mouth like a hunting dog, with fangs exposed between the half-open and half-closed.

And the most striking thing about it is the eyes that glow red, and the six pairs of gray-white covered wings!

The two of them held their breath almost at the same time, and the six-winged gargoyle did not seem to notice them, and crossed the corridor sideways.

Call!

Crane quietly breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the magic book he was holding in his right hand, but his left hand was still holding a purple stone tightly.

The two continued on, and the walls on either side were carved with a large number of murals.

Although most of them are dilapidated, they still occasionally tell the story of the greatness and sacredness of the ancient sun god.

Finally, they reached the end of the corridor, and arrived at an underground burial hall.

Instead of risking his life, Crane manipulated the puppet to explore.

The burial hall is damp and damp at the top of the room, and is divided into two parts, each with twelve gray-white dark sarcophagi, and an empty circular area in the center, which seems to have an intricate picture of the Last Supper.

Crane's heart beat suddenly, and the thud was so intense that he could hear it!

It is the image of the eternal sun, the lord of the storm, the god of knowledge and wisdom eating the ancient sun god!

It was the image of the ancient creator who successfully used the Rose of Redemption to kill himself, but was tragically betrayed by the angels!

Alger lowered his voice and asked:

"What's wrong?"

Klein silently pointed to the circular area ahead:

"See for yourself."

Alger was a little suspicious, but believed that the 'world' would not murder him.

So he looked at it cautiously and curiously, and then, in fear, he wanted to gouge out his eyes!

Alger didn't dare to look further, turned his body and looked at Gelman. Sparrow, with a trembling voice, asked:

"Those three are the kings of angels?"

Klein fell silent, and when he was sure that he had not been punished by the gods for viewing this image, he had already let the secret puppet continue to observe.

He tried not to look at the details of the 'Lord of the Storm' three gods eating the ancient sun god, instead looking to the side of the corpse.

There is a huge oil painting there, and the white-haired little Lori is sitting on a high stool and is painting by herself.

Next to her was a nun with a scythe and a cloak on her side.

"Mademoiselle and Sister Frid." 1

Klein recognized the identities of the two almost at first sight, and finally determined the source of those painting worlds-

Just as the 'primordial world' used the blood of darkness as the paint, several other paintings in this world use the blood of the ancient sun god as the paint.

Of course.

Klein actually understood that the painting was more of an image.

The scene at that time was certainly not the same as in the painting, where the three gods of the 'Lord of the Storm' directly pounced on the corpse of the ancient sun god and ate it. After all, what they want to grab should be the gold coins of the Ancient Sun God Explosion, that is, the uniqueness of the 'Storm', 'Sun' and other paths and the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 1.

But I have to admit that this kind of picture full of 'imagery' is more impactful.

At this moment, the two suddenly heard a sharp stabbing sound.

It's like someone inside a sarcophagus, picking at the lid with their fingernails!

No, not as if, that's it!

Sting! Zla! Now!

A total of three sarcophagi on the left and right sides made a sharp and piercing grinding sound, and then, the heavy gray-white coffin lid was either lifted or exploded directly, and three twisted figures stood up.

Klein and Alger's bodies tensed at the same time.

"With gravity stones!"

Crane lowered his voice to warn, and at the same time threw out the purple stone he was holding in his left hand without hesitation!

Alger also reacted, and quickly felt a similar-looking stone and threw it at the three figures.

Smack!

The stone clattered to the ground and rolled before coming to a halt in front of the sarcophagus.

It didn't seem to work, and the surging purple electricity reached out of the ground like countless twisted tentacles, and the sound of something was about to break through the ground.

At the same time, the three twisted figures also happened to be within the coverage of the gravity stone.

Bang!

Countless sharp stone pillars protruded from the ground along the twisted purple current, piercing the three twisted figures directly like sharp spears!

"Dead?"

Alger looked at the three figures that were 'hanging' on the stone pillars, and his expression was a little uncertain.

The stone in his hand is a small 'prop' purchased from Mr. 'Lover', although it is not as good as a sacrificial ring to bring people back to life, but according to Mr. 'Lover', this stone has a powerful killing power!

And now that I look at it, doesn't it have a powerful lethality?!

"Produced by embers, it must be a high-quality product."

Klein was also apprehensive, but fortunately he was fully prepared before he came-

Not only did he rent Lymanno's travel notes from the 'magician', but he also found Ember to get a batch of 'props'.

It's a little expensive, but it's also really edible!

And it's a bit of a waste, the three deceased just now.

If you can bring them together, you can use a gravity stone.

Just as he was thinking about it, Crane's face suddenly changed.

Because the sharp sound of 'stabbing' sounded in his ears again!

At the same time, from the back of the corridor, there was a heavy sound of running.

It's the gargoyle!

Alger almost breathlessly asked:

"How many gravity stones do you have?"

Klein and Alger back to back, said in a deep voice:

"Two more, what about you?"

Alger was silent for a long time, and then said silently:

"I only have the one I just had."

A gravity stone of 1,000 pounds a piece was not cheap, he just bought one for a 'taste'β€”

In fact, I just don't believe in the role of this one-time prop and don't want to spend too much money.

Klein almost breathlessly.

Although three of the deceased have been resolved, there are still nine more who have risen from the coffin!

Coupled with the gargoyles blocking the road, two gravity stones are not enough!

Klein Fasttrack:

"You go and hold the gargoyles, and I'll leave these dead to me!"

"Good!"

Alger was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and walked towards the corridor.

He is already a Sequence 5 ocean singer.

Even if you can't kill the gargoyle, at least you can hold it back.

Seeing Alger leave, Crane looked at the deceased who had gathered around him from all directions, and his scalp tingled.

Without him, the main reason is that the appearance of these deceased people is too infiltrating!

Some of their faces were rotten and pitted, and their necks, foreheads, and backs of their hands were covered with deep eyes.

Some of the surfaces were covered with a layer of green pus, and there was an inexplicable stench in the diffuse mist.

There are also slippery and thick tentacles inlaid with fish scales drilled out from under the pants......

Each of these strangely shaped deceased has the strength to rival Sequence 5!

Call!

Crane took a deep breath and reached into his coat pocket with his left hand from Lymanor's travel notes, piercing the spiritual wall and pinching out the Azk Bronze Whistle with just two fingers.

The power of the Gravity Stone is obvious to all, enough to kill a Sequence 5 Extraordinaire in one hit.

The only problem is that the deceased are too scattered.

And at this time, it is often necessary to gather monsters! β€”β€”

While Crane and Alger are locked in a bitter battle.

In the depths of the church, a priest is calmly watching all this.

He was dressed in an unusually simple white robe, with a silver cross pendant hanging from his chest.

He had a pale golden beard that covered the lower half of his face, and his eyes were clear and simple like a child's, and his expression was warm and restrained.

He's waiting.

Wait for Crane to throw out the Azic Bronze Whistle, and wait for the dead to be gathered together because of the attraction of the Bronze Whistle.

When the gravity stone activated, countless sharp stone pillars protruded from the ground and pierced their bodies.

Wait for Crane and Alger to join forces to defeat the Serapod.

Wait until they find that 'tyrant' card.

Bang!

Suddenly, the surrounding black stone pillars stood up, supporting a magnificent and huge church.

In this church, every pillar, every arch, and every dome surface are inlaid with bones of different races, which are densely packed, looking at Klein and Alger with different eye holes, and clustering around a cross of more than 100 meters.

In front of the cross, a vague figure stood there, as if looking at everything with pity.

This is a church of bones, a church of bones that is not a little gloomy but full of holiness!

On the walls, windows, and doors of the church, transparent and distorted faces stand out, and it seems that countless souls have been sealed inside, so that the extraordinary can no longer feel the existence of the spirit world and the astral world!

"What the hell is this?!"

Alger's pupils shrank suddenly, and the Chapel of Bones suddenly appeared, enveloping both him and Crane in the burial hall.

And in the depths of the church, the warm-looking priest was walking towards him!

Angel!

A true angel!

Crane's spiritual madness warned, but his body seemed to be imprisoned by some invisible chain.

Can't move!

This change made Klein change color slightly, and looking at Alger, who was also shocked and uncertain, but still able to move, and even walked silently to his side, Klein immediately realized that the angel was coming at him!
