The water rippled on the wall, and Liam passed through the door.

When I entered the house, I didn't immediately start exploring, but stood in place and looked around, and had a preliminary understanding of the general layout of the study.

Under the gaze of the "curtain", rows of bookshelves occasionally emit black mist from books.

Liam walked over, pulled the black mist book from one of the rows of shelves, and looked at it.

"Anderson's Travels." After a cursory opening of a few pages, the general content of it is a teenager named Anderson, who escapes from his hometown and wanders away, encountering all kinds of strange things.

"It's just a fairy tale, what is an old thing doing with this kind of book?" Black fog means marked with black magic, and this book can never be as simple as it seems, and there must be secrets hidden inside.

Just like the Morse code, a communication code that expresses meaning through letters and symbols in different sequences.

By unlocking this communication code, you will be able to decipher the message conveyed by the Dark Will Cult.

There is no internal guidance for this kind of password, and it is impossible to know it simply by relying on personal comprehension.

However, Liam is not at all interested in the so-called dark will, a terrifying existence of the same era as the creator god, the farther away the better.

I looked at a few more marked books, and the content was very different, there were fairy tales, historical biographies, wild histories, and autobiographies of characters.

Liam put down the "Eighteen Hands" in his hand, wondering if he was looking in the wrong direction, and the other party didn't use the magic watch to mark important items at all.

Thinking of this, he carefully checked the surrounding pattern, this study is not small, it has already caught up with the living room on the third floor.

There are bookshelves on all four walls, with a ball in the middle, and next to it is a table, with a black toad in the upper right corner of the desk, and a notebook in the center.

There was no black fog on the desk, so when he came in, Liam subconsciously ignored it.

The desk was facing the door, and the floor-to-ceiling windows behind it were sealed with wood, and the whole study was like an airtight container, and the only tool used for lighting was a burned candle.

Liam walked over to the desk and bent down to look at the toad.

The toad was made of unknown materials, blackened, with whitish venom glands hidden under its pimpled skin, and its eyes were made of night amber, which glowed at night, and was embedded in its sockets as if it were a blinking creature.

"What a weird gadget." Liam didn't want to touch it with his hands, it was disgusting just to look at, and if it looked like the real thing, it would...

The cover of the note resting in the center is gray, and the surface is engraved with a palm pressed against it.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he picked it up.

This note is very light, light and thin, and it looks thick but doesn't actually carry much weight.

Flipping it open in front of him, Liam was stunned.

The reason why this note felt light was that it was empty, and three pits of different shapes were dug out of the center of this note, and two of them contained two bronze keys.

Among them is the sheep's head key, which has a one-sided relationship.

"There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them." Liam slipped the keys into his pocket.

The Hovog Orphanage fire, the firstborn two-horned humanoids, the bloody rituals, and the silver skull butterfly, as well as the sheep's head key.

It all points to Joshua, the lock that the key opens, holds the secret of the fire at the Hovog orphanage.

Thinking of this, the palms of his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

Exhale, and now you have to endure and continue to explore this study.

With this lesson in mind, Liam focused on items that were not marked by the Dark Arts.

Squatted down and made a new discovery.

All the drawers were sealed with wax, and there must have been important items hidden inside, which could not be opened yet.

The eyes searched the study for other suspicious spots, and soon made a discovery.

On the first night of the mansion, the candles in the study burned until midnight, and little Emily also said that the old viscount often lit the lamp and read at night, and sometimes even in the morning, he could see the faint candlelight in the study.

However, the candlestick was covered in dust and looked like it hadn't been used for at least half a year.

So, where does the candlelight seen by the servant come from? Or rather, why is there candlelight in the room?

Liam swept around, finally resting on the oddly shaped orb.

Three pillars support the outer frame, the outer frame is made of three arc metal engineering, the ball stays in the center of the outer frame, and the core is passed through by a soft metal, which can rotate up and down, and can also do small range of movement.

The ball depicts a picture of the angels of the heavenly realm and the demons of the abyss gazing, this painting can be seen in the three major churches, the general implication is that the heavenly realm and the abyss are separated by a line, and the human world is in between.

With the bent fingers tapped, the ball makes a crisp echo, and the center is empty.

Suddenly, Liam had a bold idea.

Stretching out his hand, a flame emerges from his palm.

Level 1 magic "Fireball".

The precise control of the magic power, leading this low-level attack magic, takes on a different form, more similar to a small candle flame for lighting.

Reaching out and pressing on the soft metal, a strange scene happened.

The flame followed the soft metal like a slide into the sphere.

The entire sphere rotates automatically, and as it rotates, the surface is depicted changing rapidly, and a terrifying scene of the Crimson Hell appears on the rapidly rotating sphere.

Liam didn't expect that this inconspicuous sphere was actually a magic array, and the activation condition was to use a candle flame to ignite it.

Two rows of bookshelves open from the middle, and a pitch-black corridor leads diagonally into the depths of darkness.

Liam looked at the sphere, which was still spinning rapidly, then at the dark corridor, and made a decision.

Strode in.

Little Harpy followed, it walked into the corridor, looked back at the rotating sphere, raised his hand and pressed it, the two rows of bookshelves slowly closed, the fire inside the sphere in the study was extinguished, and it slowly stopped.

The retreat vanished, and Liam did not panic, but chose to move on.

The tunnel is very wet, the ground is often stepped on by stagnant water, and the walls on both sides are pitted, not like human excavation.

The road was not very long, and it soon came to an end.

At the end was a heavy bronze door, on which the abyss hell was depicted, and in the abyss, where there was no sun or moon, a monstrous beast was prostrate on the ground, looking up at the top, as if waiting for something.

The invisible feeling of pressure makes the heart pound.

The "door" symbolizes the link in the occult, leading to almost all magic circles and rituals.

What will be behind this bronze door? To the abyss? Summoning rituals? Or is it a demon imprisoned?

Liam didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't have the idea of opening the door at all.

At this time, little Harpi tugged at the other party's trouser leg and stretched out his hand to point to the wall next to him.

Liam followed the other man's guidance and looked closely.

The color of the door is exactly the same as that of the surrounding wall, and it is embedded in it, and it is impossible to find it unless you deliberately look for it.

There are a total of three doors in this peculiar design, each with a different symbol for the keyhole.

"The cup, the sheep's head, the woman." Liam took out the two bronze keys, corresponding to the "sheep's head" and the "woman" respectively.

I unconsciously remembered the classic line, "A key opens a lock".

Taking out the "sheep's head" key first, Liam was hesitating whether to open it or not, and what would be inside.

He took a breath and slid the key into the keyhole.

Little Harpy suddenly jumped to his shoulder, pressed his hands on the other's shoulders, and shook his head again and again.

"You're saying there's danger here, and it's very hostile to me?" Liam retrieved the key, little Harpy was once the king of angels, and his spiritual perception was usually correct.

Jiao Li's disappearance, the Holger fire, the bloody sacrifice, and the secrets hidden behind the sheep's head door are clearly in front of you, but they can't be opened.

Unleashing a "heart purification", Liam adjusted his mind, put the key back in his pocket, and walked towards the door marked by the "woman".

This time little Harpy did not stop him, the key was inserted into the hole, and it was opened smoothly.

Reaching out and pushing it open, the door was silent, and a beam of white moonlight shone obliquely from above, and the position of the moonlight happened to be in the center.

Two iron chains hung down from above, hanging naked women in the air, Angelica's skin was covered with scars, and blood was still oozing out in some places, long purple hair hung down to cover her face, a pair of particularly sharp ears twitched painfully from time to time, an iron chain penetrated her ankle, and the other end of the chain was a burning coal.

All sorts of torture instruments were piled up in the corners, stained with black blood, some of which were broken.

Liam couldn't imagine the abuse the woman had suffered, and felt sympathy.

Little Harpy looked up at the woman, and the flames in the depths of his pupils grew brighter and brighter.
