Chapter 7: Pitfalls
Chapter 7 Traps
......
They can't stay in the labyrinth passage for too long, otherwise they will lose their way if the wall moves, so the group also had to take the risk of making contact with the people of the Temple of the Goddess Aluti, although Faize and Sloh both said that the people of this force generally don't care too much about these disputes, but everyone is still cautious, after all, they only have seven people and five tamed beasts now, and the little purple dragon dragon dragon Wei then returned to the space bracelet to hibernate, and its power exceeds the limit of the forbidden land of the gods, and if they attract divine punishment, they will all be in danger of their lives。
"Don't be nervous, we're Zachariahs, we've just borrowed ......" As soon as they stepped into the static passage, the female magicians of the Goddess Temple were alert, staring at them with hostility on their faces, and their ice tamers immediately formed a formation.
"Zachariah!" led a beautiful woman in her twenties raised her decibels slightly, looking a little surprised. She waved her hand at the others, signaling them not to attack for the time being, and swept her gaze over the Zacharias, and finally landed on Mesa, and said to her, "You are Captain Sakiria, Mesa Sendelcis?"
"Well, we have no ill intentions, we just want to pass through here, and I hope you will make it easy for you, and on behalf of the Rosa Temple, I will give you some thanks afterwards for the kindness of the Temple of Aluti. In order not to cause conflict, Meisha had to change her tone to a softer tone, and her language was more polite.
The reason why it is necessary to directly report the forces to which it belongs is also a last resort, and the people who can enter the forbidden land of the gods in the past few days must be some of the more prestigious forces in the Eden continent, and it is impossible for people who want to deceive the temple of the goddess of Aluti, so they can only bet on whether the temple of the goddess is too snobbish.
The glamorous woman who spoke just now was Captain Aluty, Vies, Vies, who was also quite famous in the Eden Continent, and before meeting with the people of the Temple of the Goddess, Fei Ze had trumpeted the reputation of the Temple of Aluty, and was often the favorite female believer of the goddess Aluti praised by some tavern adventurers and mercenaries.
"Hmph, it's rumored to be beautiful, but it's not that good. At this time, a slightly younger girl next to Viess muttered. This girl actually has a bit of a comparison, and this comparison is still in appearance.
It is not surprising why this girl said this, Sachariah had just experienced a life-and-death scuffle, and Meisha did not wash her cheeks and arrange her hair at all, her clothes were still a little messy, and her face was as pale as paper because of fatigue, and the brilliance of the past was naturally much lighter, coupled with the lack of light in the labyrinth, at first glance, in addition to her beautiful and moving body, she was not as beautiful as the noble goddess in the picture scroll as rumored.
Meisa would not be angry at such meaningless words, so she asked again, but the nine delicate sorceresses of the Temple of Aluti did not seem to have any intention of immediately getting out of the way. Nine mighty ice beasts strewn across the passageway, separating them.
"We've seen the words that someone left on the labyrinth wall, what happened?" Viace glared at the interjecting girl, motioning for her to stop talking.
"The other three empires united to besiege us, and after we were repulsed, they used this despicable method to leave the wrong message here, falsely claiming that we had brought the first artifact into the forbidden land of the gods, so that other forces would also attack us. Meisha said truthfully, but she deliberately made the "after the repulsion" a little heavier.
"Lie, you are the lie, how can you repel the union of the three empires, unless you ......" The girl interjected again, but this time Veess didn't give her a look, obviously she also had some doubts about Meisa's words.
"If you meet people from other empires, you will find that their ranks are not complete, there are only four people left in the Charobin Empire, six people in the Simon Empire, and only six people in the Tolan Empire. Gaia said coldly. In his opinion, the more polite he was to them, the more he would appear to be weak, and the rumors were not necessarily true, and the people of the Temple of Aluti could attack them because of their great interests, even if they were known for their friendliness.
Vies's gaze fell on Gaia, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly moved his gaze to the rest of Zacharia's team, probably to check their lineup. At this time, there were only six people in Zacharias who were still fighting power, and it could be seen that everyone had obvious scars on their bodies, and there was also one person lying on the body of the tamer, obviously seriously injured and unhealed, without any combat effectiveness. However, there are only three of them, the flame bird, the one-horned Pegasus, and the ghost fire leopard.
"It seems that you have suffered heavy losses as well...... "Viess said tentatively, perhaps the woman was hesitating. The attraction of the gods is too great, if the information left in the labyrinth is true, if the gods in their hands are snatched over, maybe their Aluti Goddess Temple will become the fifth temple in the Eden continent.
"The three empires will pay the price for their despicable deeds. Instead of answering her question, Mesa spoke of the consequences.
The people of their Aluti Temple are indeed as rumored, they do not like to use killing and conquest to gain profits, and they can become the more prestigious Holy See after the four empires in the Eden Continent mainly because they have been on good terms with various forces for thousands of years.
Zacharias is one of the four empires, and Viess is only half-convinced about the matter of the gods on them, not to mention that the other party can escape from the siege of the three empires, and if they launch an attack, they will kill them all so that the Zacharia Empire will not know that it is their Aluti Goddess Temple, but it is very difficult to kill them all in this kind of labyrinth.
"Let them pass. After hesitating for a moment, Viace seemed to have made some important decision, and waved his hand to his teammates, motioning for them to call the tamer away.
"Meisha has thanked a few of them. Mei Sa breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly performed an elegant etiquette, and said to them, secretly glad that the people of the Aluti Temple were indeed as easy to get along with as rumored.
Mesa was about to lead the party through their camp, but Gaia and Fetzer stopped her almost simultaneously, and Gaia shook her head at Mesa, motioning for her not to walk over.
"This is not a static passage to the exit, let's go the other way. Fetzer and Gaia exchanged a glance, then amplified their voices slightly, changing their minds about what they were going to walk through the passage.
"Why, didn't you just say that you had to go this way?" Lucha wondered.
Fetzer immediately glared at Lucia and motioned for her to stop talking, while Gaia waved his hand at Moore and Slow behind them, signaling them to step back.
Misha didn't understand why they had suddenly changed their minds, but she stepped back a little and poured her magic into her necklace so that she could hold up the shield of guardians to keep everyone safe.
"We will remember the kindness of your temple of Aluti. After everyone retreated to another labyrinth passage, Gaia glanced at the nine seemingly weak and delicate female magicians, and left a cold word.
Veess frowned as Zacharias' men retreated to another passage, opening his hand to block the girl who had spoken earlier, and shaking his head at the rest of the team, signaling them not to take any action
"Why did you suddenly change your mind?" the Zacharians asked until they reached the entrance of another passage and turned the intersection of the labyrinth, and Meisa asked puzzled.
"It's not that they're friendly to us, it's that they're determined to kill us. Gaia said in a calm voice.
"Why? The lead Viace seems to be friendly. Lucha said.
"Viace isn't as simple as it seems. Sloh had already seen some clues, too.
"Didn't they get out of the way for us to pass, and were they going to sneak up while we relaxed?"
Gaia shook her head and explained, "Remember when I told me about the loss of the three empires, that Viace's expression changed a little when she heard me say that there were still six people in the two empires, because she knew that I was lying. There were actually seven people left in both empires, and she would have known that it was only possible that she had encountered one of the empires, and if I guessed correctly, that team was probably on the other side of the tunnel......
"You're saying that the reason why the people of the Temple of Aluti got out of the way was actually to lead us into that passage, and then another team would wrap us up, and the static passage was straight, and the other side had nine tamers and nine magicians, and as long as the team at the other end of the passage blocked us in the passage, we couldn't fly. Fetzer added.
After the two narrated, Meisa and Lucha couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and the people of the Temple of Aluti were too insidious, deliberately twisting their posture just to prevent them from being suspicious.
"But you can't tell that there's someone on the other side of the passage from that, right?" Moore still felt that this inference was a bit far-fetched, because it was only due to an incongruous expression on the part of Vies.
"Because I thought it was strange at first, although the static passage does not move the wall, but they chose to rest at the intersection of the passage that is not very safe, and then carefully observed Vies's expression, and for the sake of safety, I let Darkny quietly pass through the other party's camp from the air to the front to check the ......," Gaia said.
is a dark creature, and it is very easy to isolate the sight of Aluti's team through dark magic, and when is halfway through the passage, he senses that there is someone on the other end, so he immediately flies back and tells Gaia.
"All said it, it's quite wise to let Gaia join the Sacharia team, this guy is very smart except for being emotionally wooden. Fetzer said with a smile.
"Then we're going to have to look for static channels again. Moore said with a wry smile, the adventurer's injuries have not completely healed, and he is no longer as optimistic and casual as before.
"It's like there's been movement around again. Fetzer looked around and spoke. The walls in the main hall of the ruins always moved silently, and it was impossible to see their movement in this dim vision, and sometimes they were even walking through a straight passage, and suddenly they would find that when they came to another fork in the road, this fork in the road was the place they had just walked into.
"It's as if we've been blessed with a curse. Slow also looked around, as if he had noticed something, and said with a smile.
Gaia then noticed the changes in his surroundings, originally this was a labyrinth passage at an intersection, the road they turned had disappeared, and it became a very wide straight road in front of him, the road was paved with a blood-red carpet, and the labyrinth, which should have been pitch black, was illuminated by special flames on the walls on both sides of the road, and a relatively spacious hall could be seen not far away.
There are some high-level instruments left in each layer of the Divine Forbidden Land, which is why those ** forces still pour into the Divine Forbidden Land even though they know that it is impossible to obtain divine objects.
Each layer of space in the Forbidden Land of the Gods has a core area, and it is named after this core area, and each layer of space has some very complex psychedelic arrays or crypt arrays to prevent anyone from breaking into these core areas, just like the first layer of space is the Ruins Hall, which is composed of a complex labyrinth and a core hall hidden in the labyrinth.
The purpose of the four empires was to be the ultimate artifact of the fifth layer of space, so they didn't spend time looking for this core hall in the labyrinth, but went directly to the next layer of space through the static passage.
Right now, because of the movement of the labyrinth wall, the people of Zacharia almost accidentally stepped into the core hall of the first layer of space, the core hall is also known as the temple of guardianship, and the things guarded are also the tools left by those gods, and the tools from level F to level A are scattered in the labyrinth, and most of the tools above level A are in this temple of protection.
"I think it's a curse, Slodon't tell me you didn't know there were some cute creatures here. Fetzer said.
"I guess it's a snake guard. Slow was a little unsure, so his eyes fell on Gaia, and he seemed to look at the side of his cheek.
"Well, the snake man guard, this road is three thousand meters long, and you can only see the central hall with heavy treasures at the end, divided by the flames on both sides of the wall, the red flame area is guarded by ordinary snake people, the strength is probably at the D level, but there may be a lot of them, the blue flame area is guarded by the four-armed snake people, the strength is stronger, and the cyan flame area is guarded by the six-armed snake people, and the strength is probably between the intermediate B and the high B level. Finally, there is the white flame guarding the main hall, guarded by the eight-armed snake man, the strength is not very certain, in short, it is not something we can deal with......" Gaia knew very much and said this information very accurately.
After Gaia finished speaking, everyone immediately turned their heads carefully to observe the color of the surrounding flames, but soon the faces of several people changed.
"Gaia, are you sure you're not mistaken, why are these cyan flames around us, and white flames not far ahead!" Moore asked, a little uneasy.
