"It looks like an assassin now. ”

The two chased after each other for a short time, and then lost the trace of the black shadow. Thankfully, they unexpectedly find themselves back in the house after making an aimless turn.

Sether fumbled for a while, finding a long white candle and flint, and re-lit the torch. It was only then that they could see that the house had been turned into a mess, that the bookcases had been rudely opened, that books and papers had been thrown to the floor, that bottles and glasses had been smashed to pieces, and that wine had been spilled all over the floor.

"Is there a hidden treasure like this here?" asked Yin Xinmei.

"Perhaps. But if you think about it, it's impossible for two people not to hear such movements. ”

"Your Majesty means that this is a deliberate illusion?" Hidden eyebrows pointed to the wall, "but the greatsword is gone. ”

"It's not an item worth the trouble," Sether whispered, "and if there is a secret treasure, what could be more valuable than the blood of Emperor Wissingkai or the Hidden Lotus people?"

Sether's words hit the nail on the head, and at the same time awakened the memory of Hidden Eyebrow's earlier words, and the shame came again, because she had almost forgotten the shame that she had forgotten for the rest of her life.

Even as the fire dimmed, Sether noticed her reddened ears and an inexplicable look of shame, and his eyes immediately swept over her like a searchlight in search of answers.

"Smack!"

The two were startled. A half-dragged tapestry finally fell, they hadn't noticed it before, it seemed that the previous guess of the hidden eyebrows was correct, there was indeed a secret door here.

"Am I being careless? Someone seems to be as familiar with this place as I am. Sether was a little surprised.

"It's probably not too late to chase. Hidden eyebrows reminded him.

Sether immediately opened the button for the secret door, and the wall spun open, and the hidden eyebrow picked up the combo and followed it, and the secret door closed behind her.

As soon as they stepped inside, they heard the humming of metal whizzing, and instinctively drew their long swords and struck back, smacking twice, and then hearing something fall to the ground with a clang.

Only then did they see clearly by the torches, and they shouted in unison, "Lantern Shield!"

This is a modified miniature lantern shield, there are two of them on the ground, the main body is very much like a small shield, the card protrudes from a small piece and there is a finger buckle on the back, which is used to fix it on the thumb for preparation, so it is named because it is shaped like a small lantern. The entire hidden weapon is less than the size of a palm, the long leaf-shaped and spike-shaped blades are parallel to the user's palm, and spikes or poisonous needles can be added at will, and there is a small boomerang inside, which can be fired out and rotated to cut the necks of everyone in the current space. It was expensive and difficult to make, and was rarely used by ordinary Assassins, and judging by the fact that they encountered as many as six blade heads and a lantern shield with a poisoned tip, it was one of the best killers.

"It seems that he is indeed coming for His Majesty. ”

"Why not at you?" said Sether coldly.

Yin Xinmei was speechless, her sharp teeth can't take advantage of anything now, and what's worse is that if her conscience is still there, she has to admit that he is still right. Since he likes to take her out so much, she can only blame herself for talking too much.

The two of them walked forward silently, this dark passage was not long, and a huge stone chamber appeared in front of them in a few steps. Sethor lit two torches at the entrance, the top of the stone chamber was so high that there was not enough light to faintly see the top carved in relief, and in front of the stone chamber was a circular staircase, with a one-man square stone slab at the top. Although I have never seen it, the structure looks like it was used for sacrificing to the living. The rest of the floor in the room is more neatly arranged with a huge sarcophagus, numbering about a few hundred, with no end in sight. On both sides of the chamber are piles of rocks, possibly collapsed or broken statues.

It seems that Sether was right, this is indeed the altar of the Semites. Human sacrifice is not an uncommon practice of witchcraft, but it is generally only practiced by the most barbaric and economically backward Yu Bangguo. Although Semitic does not belong to the Seven Nations Alliance, its overall strength is not low, surpassing any of the remaining states, and even a lot higher than Wind Spirit Wash, otherwise Seres would not have built the center of Weishengkai on the ruins of Semitic.

The hidden eyebrows could not connect the creepy picture in front of them with the beautiful and splendid Semitic culture in the image, and the thought of Prince Semir was even more unimaginable.

"I came here unexpectedly when I was five years old," Seser whispered, "and it was like an abandoned slaughterhouse. Soon after, my father rebuilt the place, and there were so many bones that the sarcophagus could not fit and he burned it or threw it into the river, leaving only about one-fifth of the original number. And there are at least twenty pairs of bones in each sarcophagus here. ”

This is a staggering number, and there has never been such a large-scale human sacrifice in history in the Semites, and even ordinary witchcraft accepted by the Seven Kingdoms is rarely used. What is going to happen to plunge this once-wonderful country into such horror and evil?

"Maybe this place should be ruined completely. Hidden eyebrows muttered.

"Perhaps, maybe, should," Sether shrugged, "I'll do it." ”

A long, glowing tube seemed to flicker in the corner of her eyebrow, "Get down!" she yelled.

"Bang! bang!"
