Volume 1: The Golden Pocket Watch Chapter 120: The Last Supper
Through the gap in the quaint gate, with the help of night vision, Wei Yatu saw clearly that there was a majestic palace in front of her, the stone pillars supporting both sides of the palace had collapsed and broken in half, and the rest was crumbling, as if it would be eroded by time at any time.
At the end of the palace is not the altar throne, nor the treasures buried by the gods, but only a large horizontal mottled fresco.
Mural...... It's actually a mural?
Wei Yatu subconsciously glanced left and right, and after not finding anything else strange as if she was vigilant, she began to look at the remaining murals on the wall.
The background of the mural is a fine dinner, with black-robed clergy gathered together, with huge wings outstretched behind their backs, huddled together for dinner, and at the top of it is a huge bonfire covered with layers of light.
This...... Wei Yatu only glanced at it cursorely, and there was a strong sense of discomfort.
She had seen similar frescoes more than once, when she became an angel, when the cardinal leader crowned her, she had seen the fresco of the Supper of the Gods in the sanctuary, although it was not the same here, but it had similarities.
"The Last Supper!"
The dark shadow muttered, "Sure enough, it is the mausoleum of an ancient existence, and the power I am familiar with is hidden in this mural. ”
He raised his illusory palm and pointed at one of the men with wings outstretched on his back in the mural, "Here, he used to be my ally, but he disappeared later, and I didn't expect to meet here." ”
"Here?"
Wei Yatu looked at it again, the man the black shadow was referring to was indeed conveying the illusory power that was as if it were nothing, but this power was extremely weak, and it would be ignored if he was not careful.
His Holiness's allies are also of the angelic rank, so could it be said that this ancient mural has special powers to trap angels?
Wei Yatu felt a little dizzy for a moment, and the mural in front of her suddenly became extremely blurry, and all the colors began to have the illusion of peeling, reorganizing, and expanding, as if a two-dimensional picture was connected to a three-dimensional world.
Not good...... Wei Yatu lost her mind instantly, her pupils dilated, and she quickly retracted her gaze, no longer looking at the overlapping and extending murals, and at this moment, a scene naturally appeared in her mind:
A devout disciple in Gothic costume crawls on the ground and crawls towards the mural in front of him, striking his forehead against the ground every distance he has traveled until he blends into the painting little by little.
"Prisoner!"
It is recorded in the Book of the Sea God that there are many taboos in the tombs of the gods in order to target the blasphemers of the future, and the most common supernatural power is the prison, also known as the painting of the ground as a prison.
The purpose is to trap the trespassers in the mausoleum and exist as tomb keepers day and night.
Seeing that Wei Yatu's eyes became frightened, at the same time, he inexplicably felt that there was a cold wind blowing from the front of the entire hall, undoubtedly as if there were many ghosts or resentful spirits gathered around.
"There is strength in the recovery."
"There are ancient forces reviving ......"
Viatu shouted like crazy, she tried to escape, but was caught by the black shadow.
In the illusory hollow eye sockets, a dark red light flickered, and he could clearly see that on the wall directly in front of him, the ancient frescoes were increasing in color and changing strongly.
In the ancient murals, a series of vague figures seem to come to life, those figures with wings stretched out, shrouded in gray shadows, through the hooded robe, one of them has black hair, looks handsome and vigorous, one wears a huge triangular hat, painted with smoky makeup, hair is knotted, looks extremely cunning, the other looks sweet and delicate, red eyes, and a bumpy figure......
Suddenly, one of the blonde female angels tore off her slender arm, took out a piece of black stuff from the plate on the table and stuffed it into her mouth, biting her mouth full of blood, and the male angel wearing a huge tricorne hat directly held up a head, sucking the brain, and the other angels began to start one after another, and even the former ally he was familiar with picked up a red beating heart and gnawed hungrily.
Opposite them, the angels in the mural were eating, and suddenly collectively stopped chewing the "food," and looked straight ahead at the same time, as if they were watching everyone who saw this ancient mural!
"Oops!"
The black shadow shook suddenly, and on an illusory face, there were alternating joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and he grabbed Wei Yatu's shoulder, and his whole body began to blur, and he kept blurring......
Seeing this scene, the angels in the mural lowered their heads again and began to nibble on the food on the table, as the gnawing sound became louder and louder, the heavy stone door creaked and closed, and the silence of the old palace returned to the past, and even the footprints left by Wei Yatu before gradually disappeared, as if no one had ever set foot on it......
.........
High in the mountains, in the town of Ottoman, in the underground labyrinth.
Kakashi, who was carrying a human skin lantern, ran in from the top of the staircase, and said to Barrus, who was standing nearby:
"Captain Carlos is so powerful, he just stuck his broadsword in the ground, those filth trembled, and he didn't even dare to cross the sword, and now the exploration team has set up camp on top of the building, ready to explore here, by the way, Lord Link? Why didn't you see Lord Link? ”
Kakashi looked around, but there was no sign of Link except for Barrus, who was still in fighting form.
"Could it be that Lord Link has already explored the depths?"
"No, Link was still there, but in the blink of an eye, I ...... It was gone, and I suspected he had seen something, so something was wrong. Barrus said with a frown, and looked at the collapsed altar out of the corner of his eye, motioning for Kakashi not to go over to prevent the accident from happening again.
Kakashi subconsciously looked in the direction suggested by Barrus, the ground around him was covered with a mess of animal bones, and the collapsed stone table was full of candles and marks of what resembled ointment.
"Altar?"
"Yes, Altar, I suspect that the problem in the Ottoman town is more than just the contamination of Gaynon."
Hearing this, Kakashi's expression suddenly became solemn, and she, like Barrus, who showed her red gloves, pulled out an axe from behind her back.
"What should I do?"
"You report to Captain Carlos first, the commander should know what the problem is, I'll stay here."
"Okay." Kakashi nodded.
She didn't leave in a hurry, but looked around to make sure there were no other anomalies before cautiously retreating outside.
At the moment of receding, Barrus lit up a flame and scorched in the air, she knew that this was a means to protect the vanished Link from falling into real darkness!
The exploration team of the Ethereal City has had similar encounters in the past exploring the ruins that are entrenched in the contamination of the Gaynon Mass.
Similar but not limited to the sudden disappearance of a team member, the sudden disappearance of an entire exploration team, and so on.
These seem to be wrong, but in fact they are only hidden by some kind of power, this power does not necessarily belong to Guynon, a large part of it is an unknown residual force, and these missing people are not really missing, but they are covered by the power and stay in place.
Originally, it was only necessary to crack this power to make the members visible, but many times the exploration team did not have enough experience, coupled with the attack of Ganon pollution, they could only hurriedly carry the human skin lantern and leave the area, so the poor guy who was attached to the power was swallowed up by the real darkness and could no longer be found.
The dim glow of the humanskin lantern spilled around, and Kakashi hurried to the exit, and just as she was about to arrive, Carlos's figure appeared in the doorway, and the shadowy members of the exploration team stood next to her.
"What happened?" Looking at the panicked Kakashi, the "regiment leader" asked in a deep voice.
At this moment, the huge broadsword had returned to his hand, and the blade was smeared with a faint layer of ointment.
As soon as Kakashi saw the regimental commander, he immediately briefly stated what had just happened.
"Link......" Carlos nodded thoughtfully, walked past Kakashi, and walked down the stairs towards the flame that Barruz was rubbing.
…………
Candles were lit outside the Ottoman town, and the whole street did not smell at all, but Link seemed to have fallen into an ice cave at this moment, and the chill in his heart couldn't stop coming out.
He clenched his grip on the Master's Sword, retracting his gaze from the surrounding town, about 3,000 breaths had passed, the daytime spell had burned out, and he had turned most of the area, and it was almost certain that the Ottoman town was empty!
He stopped, and there was no need to continue exploring, because it was strange that Ottoman Town, unsurprisingly was now an empty city.
Link is not too nervous, and there is no obvious panic, although the encounter at the moment can be said to be very serious, but this is not a problem, after all, he is now a god who is blessed by the gods.
As long as it is not a direct outbreak of danger, it can annihilate my vitality in an instant, it is not a serious problem......
Link shook the master's sword in his hand, inhaled hard, then buried his head and whispered reverently:
"The Ancient Dominion ...... Sleeping in the City of L'Alaye"
"The Mysterious Juggernaut above Your Forbidden ......"
"Eternal Old Dreams Transcending Time and Space ......"
......
Venathan, who had been scrolling through the drawings of the blasphemous cards collected by the previous "old days" by the bronze bookshelf, heard the prayer of fate, put down the drawings in his hand, sat down again on the bronze throne at the top of the Ouroboros, stretched out his right hand, opened the door of Yah, and then projected the scene in the transcendent bonfire.
Suddenly, the voice of the prayer became very clear, and then he realized that there was something wrong with Link's environment!
In the doors of different sizes, there is an indescribable darkness flowing, and the overwhelming starry sky in the darkness is flickering, and if you look closely, those twinkling starry sky are actually eyes of different shapes.
