The footsteps were messy, and it was clearly not a person.

Chu Huan's mind turned, and he immediately ran towards the stone chamber that the red-robed bishop had suddenly appeared before.

The second underground floor was originally pitch black, but now the red-robed bishop's clothes were burning, the fire drove away the darkness, and the entire second underground floor had nowhere to hide, so Chu Huan could only go to the stone room to take refuge first.

There are no five fingers in the stone room, which is the best hiding place for Chu Huan at present.

He looked at the stone chamber, where there was a stone platform against the wall, on which was a statue of a god as tall as a man, and at the feet of the statue lay candles, fruit offerings, and an incense burner and a red box with a red cloth on which the skin sheath of the artifact was placed.

Chu Huan hid in the stone room and looked out.

This is supposed to be a secret place for the temple, and although there are quite a few people who come here, only one cardinal walks in, and everyone else is waiting outside.

A white-bearded red-robed bishop appeared in Chu Huan's sight, the man was holding a kerosene lamp in his hand, and when he saw the red-robed bishop fall to the ground, he immediately shouted outside: "Call Bishop Lu Fan." ”

Someone outside answered and left in a hurry.

The whitebearded bishop reached out and touched the dead bishop's neck artery, and he stood up to make sure the cardinal was dead.

As the whispered prayer in his mouth ended, with a flick of his hand, the burning clothes were extinguished in an instant.

He turned his head to look at the stone chamber.

Then he walked step by step towards the stone chamber with a kerosene lamp.

Chu Huan left the door of the stone chamber, jumped to the high platform, and hid behind the statue.

The stone chamber lit up.

The Whitebeard Bishop approached the idol and looked at the empty red box, and was about to step forward when he heard an angry roar from outside.

The Whitebeard Bishop turned and walked outside.

Bishop Lu Fan was much younger, about forty years old, he had a flashlight in his hand, and as soon as he came to the second basement floor, he saw the dead red-robed bishop.

"Bishop Liu, this ...... Hu Catholicism just died? ”

The white-bearded bishop's name was Liu Pingsheng, and his status in the temple was second only to the pope.

"Artifact...... It's gone. ”

"What!" Hearing the words of the white-bearded bishop, Lu Fan's expression became even more frenzied, he turned around and walked towards the stone room, went to the stone room to take a look, and he returned to the dead bishop in a somewhat depressed state.

"You use your heart to sense it, I can't detect the breath of the artifact, so I ordered someone to ring the bell." After saying that, as if he had discovered something, the Whitebeard Bishop leaned over and grabbed the dead bishop's hand.

Closing his eyes and feeling the aura of the artifact, Lu Fan opened his eyes in a few breaths: "It's true that I can't feel any breath, how can it be?" ”

Seeing that the white-bearded bishop leaned over and took out something from the dead bishop's hand, Lu Fan bent down and glanced at the corpse.

"It seems that Hu Catholicism was injured by the artifact." Lu Fan stared at the wound on Hu Tian's forehead, where black blood was overflowing, and the wound had deteriorated: "The artifact already has spirituality, how can it be a master?" ”

Bishop Whitebeard didn't answer his question, but got up and handed Bishop Lu Fan an iron number plate.

Forty-four.

"This is ......" looked at the number plate in his hand hesitantly, Lu Fan's mind was a little messy at the moment, and he had enshrined thousands of years of artifacts...... disappeared, and killed a bishop, which was too big a blow to him, so big that he didn't dare to think about what kind of bloody storm the artifact would set off in the world.

Chu Huan sneaked down from behind the portrait at this time, looking at the number plate in Bishop Lu Fan's hand, he looked at his right wrist, when did the number plate fall?

How could he not know at all?

"This was found in Hu Tian's hands, he must have had contact with the other party before he died, and he took off this number plate easily."

"It seems that his fireball technique not only did not hurt the man, but also set himself on fire in the end."

Seeing that Lu Fan was holding the number plate for some reason, the whitebeard bishop continued to explain: "This is the number plate issued by the two major legions of the Ruined City when they summoned the mutants today. ”

"Mutants?" Lu Fan's expression was uncertain: "Is it the person that the two legions are looking for?" ”

"Just ask." Bishop Whitebeard said, "The temple bell has already sounded in the ruined city just now, and it won't be long before they arrive." ”

"If only they did it." Lu Fan said with a look of resentment: "Lord Bloodletting Demon come out? ”

The whitebearded bishop shook his head: "It's not time, I'm just curious about how the person who stole the artifact can hide the aura of the artifact?" ”

The whitebearded bishop was a little puzzled: "This is something that has never happened before. ”

The reason why the artifact has remained in the temple for thousands of years is because the red-robed bishop can sense the mysterious aura of the artifact, so even if the artifact is stolen, as long as it is in the Great Wilderness Continent, they can quickly track it down with them, and now they can't sense the existence of the artifact......

Thinking of a possibility, the whitebearded bishop said in a trembling voice, "Could it be that the artifact has been re-recognized?" ”

After speaking, he denied himself: "No, how is it possible, either the other party is a pope-level person, or a god...... Popes from other continents will not come here, let alone a god...... This ......"

"Now it's imperative to find who is here first." Bishop Lu Fan also looked incredulous: "Hu Tian is dead, and the Pope is still in retreat...... What the temple does next is up to the adults. ”

"It's important to find the artifact first." The white-bearded bishop said and looked at Hu Tian's corpse: "Arrange for someone to return him to the kingdom of God as soon as possible." ”

Lu Fan nodded and called two purple-robed priests to come in, and the two of them carried Hu Tian's body and left.

The white-bearded bishop glanced at the second basement floor, then at the stone chamber, and ordered: "That man should not have gone far, all the priests should search the temple inside and outside, and if they find strangers, they must stay alive." ”

Bishop Lu Fan said yes, handed the number plate to Bishop Whitebeard, and then left the second basement floor.

"Is it really fate?" Bishop Whitebeard muttered, and slowly left.

The entire underworld was plunged into darkness.

"Are there any other exits here?" Chu Huan asked the chip in his brain, he didn't know much about these construction mechanisms, even if there were other exits, I was afraid that he would not be able to find them for a while.

"Break in." The chip in his brain weighed the pros and cons: "Instead of staying here, it's better to go out and fight." ”

"The number plate is now in their hands, and they will soon be able to figure out who the number forty-four is."

"Forty-four is Zhuo Feng's number plate."

"If you can get your number plate back, this pot Zhuo Feng will carry it."

"Zhuo Feng also came to the temple, wouldn't it be for the artifact?"

"The artifact is here, who isn't excited?" The chip in his brain asked rhetorically.

Chu Huan hummed, tore off a circle of cloth from the trouser leg of his right leg, and then tied it behind his head to cover half of his face.

"There's no chance that the pool of blood will be destroyed." Chu Huan, who walked outside, said to the chip in his brain, now that the entire temple is under martial law, he will flee as soon as he goes out, and he will have no chance to deal with the blood demon in the blood pool.

"There's an artifact, the blood demon doesn't have to worry, let's run for my life first."

"Okay." Chu Huan said and walked the way he came.

"Chu Huan?"

"Huh?"

"What does wine taste like?"

“？？？” Chu Huan was confused: "Why are you asking this?" ”

"It's so exciting tonight, I'm afraid you'll die."

"We humans would be killed if we couldn't speak." Chu Huan said and smiled: "What about your machine?" My advice is to shut up if you don't speak. ”

With that, he stopped.

Voices could be heard from the ground floor, and the exit was now guarded.

"If I can see the sun tomorrow, I will definitely drink some."

Chu Huan said a word to the chip, and after speaking, he walked up the steps to the top.

One step at a time.

Every step is terrifying.
