Volume 1 Crime and Punishment Chapter 24 Pilgrimage

Everyone walked quietly behind Janus, and walking out of the end of the banquet hall that Janus came out of every day was as gray as ever, and what made Luo Mu strange was that it seemed that every corridor in this building was on the edge of this castle, because every distance in each corridor was inlaid with a huge piece of broken glass on the right side, Luo Mu faintly felt that he had never approached the center of this building in the past week.

Luo Mu walked a little further in the line, in this week he still only knew the names of Miao Yun and Bank, and even last night he had begun to forget, the twenty people here except for the three of them no one else had intersections, although they lived together every day, but maybe for some reason, these children who were only about ten years old, including Luo Mu, were calm and terrible, so Luo Mu never saw anyone talking to others.

Probably out of all of them, Bank is the only one who is normal.

As passing by one broken glass after another, the front of the corridor suddenly changed direction, no longer going all the way around, but turning directly to the left, naturally, there were no windows on this road to the center of the castle, as if it came to the first day when Luo Mu walked across the huge pontoon bridge and entered the castle, the walls on both sides were inlaid with a torch shining with blue flames every few steps, and the pace of walking into this corridor Yanus slowed down significantly, and the dark walls reflected the shadows of everyone.

This corridor also inherits the consistent style of this building, the roof is extremely high, this corridor is also much wider than the outer one, Luo Mu looked at his shadow reflected on the wall like a black dot reflected in the endless darkness, extremely small.

Walking in the corridor, Luo Mu suddenly felt that his emotions were also infected, walking on this road seemed to be covered with holy brilliance, slowly, Luo Mu felt as if he was like everyone in front of him, he was an extremely devout pilgrim, and he was about to visit his own shrine.

Luo Mu couldn't help but slow down, everyone's footsteps seemed to be on a frequency, neat and amazing, if you close your eyes, Luo Mu can only even hear the footsteps of the same person, for some reason, Quinn was silent this time, Luo Mu felt that something in his heart broke through the hard shell, and it only overflowed his mind in an instant, and that kind of emotion Luo Mu was too familiar, it was called hatred.

How fierce the hatred was, Luo Mu remembered every moment in Qinghe in the past, and even the blood gushing out of his father's skull was vivid, Luo Mu's body trembled violently, he clenched his fists tightly, he hated this world, why did he let himself go through this, he hated everyone, why no one could lend a hand at that time, the intense hatred made Luo Mu's body stiff due to exertion, but he seemed to be manipulated, and every step was still on the same frequency as everyone else.

But everyone's footsteps are like Luo Mu, becoming heavier and heavier, as if each person's extremely slow step can crush the stone bricks on the ground, and the corridor has become as if it is no longer so dim, the words in Luo Mu's mind that the final volume of the Forgotten Life Sutra seem to have life, constantly flashing in Luo Mu's mind repeatedly, and Luo Mu also slowly followed along.

"I want this heaven to become hell, I want this hell to become heaven, I want this world to be able to have..."

And at this moment, suddenly a person suddenly grabbed Luo Mu's sleeves clenched by his fists, Luo Mu turned back suddenly, Luo Mu's bloodshot pupils radiating endless hatred, as if he could devour the whole world, as if he could kill everyone in the world without stopping.

But he saw a pair of eyes full of confusion, but they were clear and translucent, the corners of the eyebrows in the center of those eyes were tightly frowned, and the eyes were full of tears, Miao Yun bit her lip tightly, she looked at Luo Mu's eyes without the slightest fear, maybe what she saw now was not Luo Mu at all at this moment, Miao Yun's short dark green hair looked like a lifeless black under the light of the jumping blue flames at this moment.

"Don't forget me"

And at this moment, the belated vigilance echoed in Luo Mu's mind like a thousand bells ringing at the same time, Luo Mu suddenly loosened, and almost sat on the ground, but the team continued to move forward at all, and Miao Yun's hand holding the corner of Luo Mu's sleeve also made him hurriedly walk back into the team.

Luo Mu walked silently, he looked back at the eyes that were still looking forward with tears, Luo Mu turned his head, it turned out that the most painful memory in her heart was this.

But why? Luo Mu thought strangely, he and Miao Yun had only known each other for a week, and even he had begun to slowly forget her, and Luo Mu knew very well, I don't know what reason, in that dark room, he should have died at her hands a long time ago, Luo Mu couldn't think of any reason to make Miao Yun have such a deep impression of himself.

Luo Mu gritted his teeth, stopped thinking about things he couldn't understand, tried his best to curb the faith that was about to move in his heart, and looked up at the blue lights that jumped one after another.

At this moment, everyone in the team seemed to be crazy, doing all kinds of twisted and exaggerated movements, but their steps were still unified, and none of them spoke loudly, but everyone opened their mouths greatly, but let out bursts of whispers, as if everyone was afraid of disturbing something, and the torches embedded in the walls also seemed to be affected, jumping flames, and the fire slowly shone out of the end of the corridor.

It was a semi-circular open field, and the only function of that place seemed to be to carry this door that seemed to lead to the sky, this space was extremely dim, this door Luo Mu could only see half of it, and then it was hidden in the darkness and could not see clearly, but Luo Mu roughly estimated that this door was even more than the gate when he first came down the pontoon bridge and entered the castle.

Janus stopped, and everyone stopped moving, quietly forming a long row, Janus walked forward alone, stood under the great gate, knelt on one knee, he raised his hands above his head, made the gesture that symbolized Ignitz, and silently said "Lucifer, please accept my highest respect, please take me out of this chaos, please show me the light"

Janus's voice was very low, but Luo Mu heard it very clearly, and the whole space seemed to echo this voice, and then, in the invisible darkness at the highest part of the giant gate, two rays of light lit up, and the light was symmetrical, until the light went halfway, Luo Mu found that the light was along the extremely complex pattern trajectory on the giant gate all the way down.

The lines Luo Mu is vaguely familiar, it is the pupil on the original platform, and the difference is that there is an extremely clear upside-down five-pointed star in the center of the pupil on this door, but there is a faint face hidden in the five-pointed star, and each corner of the five-pointed star is hooked with a wonderful symbol, as the pattern slowly lights up, this giant door also slowly opens.

There was a very dazzling light behind the giant gate, Luo Mu raised his hand slightly to cover it in front of him, but the rest of the people didn't even blink their eyes, allowing the dazzling white light to look straight on their eyes, Luo Mu just slowly adapted to the white light, and then the team slowly moved, and the scene behind the giant gate was presented in front of Luo Mu's eyes.

Behind the door is a vast and boundless space, and two-thirds of this space is occupied, it is a gray-white statue floating in the air, the statue is floating in the air very quietly, but Luo Mu looked at him, but as if all his energy was attracted to the past, he felt that it was not a statue at all, that statue could come to life at any time.

As if it wasn't a statue, it was Lucifer.

The statue has no extra movements, his hands are hanging by his side, he is dressed in a gray robe, and his feet are naturally drooping, Luo Mu saw his eyes the moment the door opened, but those eyes looked very smart under this gray-white carving, Luo Mu looked at him, and had a very strong feeling, he was also looking at himself through the eyes of this statue.

This building that was already floating in the air was like a huge residence, and the only occupant in this residence was the lifelike statue in front of him, and Luo Mu finally understood why all the corridors had windows, because this building only had one outer floor, and now he was standing in the center of this building.

Everyone is just a servant, and only this statue really belongs here.

As soon as they stepped through the giant gate, everyone sang, they sang the song when the red dragon roared to the sky on the first night, Luo Mu could understand the meaning of each lyric at the moment, that song was the final volume of the Forgotten Life Sutra, but he couldn't sing a single sentence at all, everyone no longer stood in a long row when they stepped through the giant gate, but everyone automatically stood in a row and then crossed the door at the same time.

Janus stood by the door when he stepped through the giant gate, bowing his head respectfully to the statue, and Luo Mu only realized at this moment that behind the giant gate was a vast and boundless space, and he was also floating in the air at the moment.

But the feeling of extreme mystery was filled in Luo Mu's mind, he knew that there was such a road in front of him, but he didn't know where this road led, Luo Mu looked around, everyone had already sung loudly and walked forward, they walked extremely firmly every step, everyone's path was different, some people stood in front of the statue's shoulders, and some people stood on the fingers of the statue.

Luo Mu no longer looked around, and walked forward along the road in his heart, but his road was too far away from everyone, Luo Mu actually walked straight to the front of the statue, Luo Mu stopped, he seemed to be able to see the look in the eyes of the gray-white pupils.

It's just a statue.

Luo Mu kept telling himself, because the powerful coercion was constantly exerting on every part of his body, suddenly, an old voice came out of Luo Mu's mind, it was Quinn's voice, but at this moment, Luo Mu heard Quinn's voice for the first time with emotion, it was a kind of nostalgia, or incomprehension.

"Lucifer"

Luo Mu suddenly felt the pressure on his body suddenly loosen, the road under his feet seemed to be affected, Luo Mu felt that the power supporting him under his feet fluctuated, and some of the other people who stood still even almost fell, and the singing in the entire space came to an abrupt end, Janus respectfully bent over and stood up suddenly, his brows furrowed tightly, it was the first time he had encountered this situation.

Then Luo Mu actually seemed to see the statue slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, and another voice also came out of Luo Mu's mind

"Oh, Caesar, you're here."
