In fact, the presence of wind does not mean anything. After all, in this world of occultism, perhaps the murlocs are using thaumaturgy to create sea breeze to enhance the atmosphere of the ceremony.
Because he knew that there must be many murlocs and ring warlocks behind the hole in the wall, Xia De didn't even dare to stretch his head to look behind, but cautiously leaned against the wall, trying to hear the sound behind.
It was only a long time, and only whispers continued to come. He barely discerned that it was the voice of praying to the evil **** [Scarlet Spiral Lord]. The voices were mixed together, and at least ten people were praying at different speeds at the same time.
Unfortunately, the invisible [Bordeaux Candle] was consumed in the last operation. Xia De, who dared not stretch out his head to look easily, thought of using thaumaturgy [Echoes of the Past] to listen.
There was no one in the wine cellar all year round, and the only people who spoke here within 48 hours were people from the Scarlet Esoteric Cult.
The thaumaturgy really succeeded, but what Xia De heard from the conversations of the heretics was just scolding the Orthodox Church for being so despicable. , the murlocs occupy the wonderful life of the underwater city of Lengshuigang.
The two who spoke, even had an in-depth discussion about how the seaweed specialty meal is prepared.
Xia De listened patiently, and finally heard a different voice:
"Officer, those two humans are here."
The guy who was talking made grunting noises from time to time, so he was obviously a murloc.
Then came the sound of footsteps, and the two sides met at the hole in the wall, which was where Shad was standing now.
"Good evening, friends of the Scarlet Esoteric Cult."
The speaking voice was a little familiar.
"Humans, don't be so polite, can our business continue?"
This should be the priest of the Scarlet Esoteric Cult presiding over the ceremony here.
"Of course, the church's sudden pursuit left us with nowhere to hide. We can only find a way to leave Lengshui Harbor as soon as possible."
This is the companion with the somewhat familiar voice:
"I originally wanted to coerce Ms. Aurora to get us a ship to the New World, but I didn't expect that there would be a ring warlock from the Orthodox Church beside her. The deal is still valid, [Blood Spirit School] will provide you with the technology to nourish the murloc's flesh and blood , you help us leave Cold Water Harbor, and provide the poet-level relic [Fish Training Ring] that allows intelligent creatures to master human language."
A group of people walked into the hole.
Xia De understood, that somewhat familiar voice turned out to be Darkness.
"The Chosen One got mixed up with the murlocs..."
Generally speaking, there is a high probability of trouble where the chosen person is, and the first chosen person, that is, Iluna, when she met the cultist, directly caused the evil **** to descend on Tobesk.
Although the most serious outcome of the Coldwater Harbor incident was that the city was submerged by a tsunami, Xia De was still a little uneasy when he thought of the Chosen One being here.
"Go back now and find Miss Aurora to come up, it will delay at least 20 minutes. And now there is not much time before sunrise, there is no need to inform the witch, otherwise I will not have time to get the murloc information .So, let me see what they're going to do."
I was still thinking about how I could safely enter the hole behind the wall, but I didn't expect the sound of footsteps to come again. But this time it's not the sound of the past, but the sound of the present, someone is walking out from the inside of the hole.
Shad quickly hid next to the shelf where the barrels were placed, and then saw a man in a gray robe and a hood coming out.
The reason why he could tell that it was a man was because he looked around and found it convenient to stand by the wall.
Xia De imagined Ms. Aurora's expression when she knew a man was peeing in her wine cellar, then took off the ring on her hand, and silently controlled the silver mist to drift towards the man.
When the mist completely enveloped him, Xia De looked around furtively, then held the sword in both hands, bent over and walked in on tiptoe.
After about ten seconds, Xia De, with a little blood on his body, dispersed the surrounding silver mist in a man's robe.
Enduring the nausea, Xia De smeared the slippery mucus on his face onto his own face. After that, he worriedly applied the slime on his clothes, then folded the corpse as best he could, and used the canvas on the shelf to turn it into a toy and stuff it into his pocket.
After doing all this, he tiptoed slightly to make himself look as tall as the man just now, then put on the hood, and walked behind the hole with his head down.
Obviously the wine cellar was very dry, but the moment his body entered the hole, the humid air made Xia De's breathing rate change.
He had never been to such a humid place before, and the moisture in the air seemed to condense into water droplets and fall to the ground in the next second. Only in the real water body can it be more humid than this. Xia De couldn't figure out how this kind of humidity appeared under natural circumstances.
Hiding his head under the hood, Shade walked forward quickly with his head down. The destination is very clear, because many people who wear the same clothes as him are sitting in front.
In front of him was a space built of light gray damp masonry with disgusting moss attached to the walls. The area is not large, about two-thirds of the entire floor of Xia De's house.
Underfoot was a layer of jet-black pools of water, and the room was illuminated with glowing moss on the walls, candles, and a dense cluster of glowing beads on the high dome. Under the stagnant water is the ground with potholes, and on the ground are long rows of stone seats. At intervals, there will be a small square hole in the wall. I don’t know what it is for. .
There are some blurred patterns on the light gray stone wall and the dome above the head, but carefully looking around, Shad is very sure that this should be a small church.
Based on the overheard conversations of the professors a few hours ago, behind the hole in the wall should be a secret religious meeting place established by the murlocs before the Aurora family bought the manor.
Knowing this, Xia De stopped looking around, but stepped forward quickly, meeting with a dozen people in gray robes who were seated on the seats in front of the damp chapel. He chose to sit behind everyone instead of stepping forward to see more.
These gray robes are also very interesting. There is no pattern on the surface, but the hem of the robe looks like it has been torn. All the people here wear robes like this, which is a peculiar style of clothing decoration.
After Shad sat down, he finally had a chance to see the front of the damp chapel. There is no **** statue there, only a holy emblem that seems to be made of bone. The holy emblem presents a spiral shape, and the center of the spiral is a symbol of a fish head and a human body.
In front of the holy emblem, three obese old men holding books and with severely alienated faces were quietly whispering their prayers to the evil **** [Lord of the Scarlet Spiral].
Xia De thought there were dozens of people whispering outside, but unexpectedly there were only three.
The book they were holding was "The Mystery of the Sea" that Xia De had seen in Mr. Jude's safe. It's just that the three books that appeared this time were all made of leather materials, and they seemed to know that they recorded the evil knowledge of the cult.
looking aside...
"Um?"
Xia De immediately lowered his head, because the person in front of him suddenly turned his head, and then looked at the companion behind him suspiciously. Under the hood was the murloc's face. After its gaze stayed on Shad for a few seconds, it sniffed with its nose, then turned around and said nothing.
In addition to the disgusting mucus, the smell of [Drown Murloc Scale] on Shad's body also made the cultists regard him as a companion. From this point of view, although this scale exposed Shad in front of the witch, it helped him in the damp chapel, so it was not useless to borrow it from Dorothy.
Xia De continued to observe carefully, the three fat murlocs holding books stood at a higher position, so there was no water under their feet, and the traces of concentric semicircles could be seen spreading outward with the middle murloc as the center. The black ink left a profane rune in the shape of a seahorse on the ground~www.mtlnovel.com~ Xia De tried to decipher, and found that it was not only a tribute to evil gods, but also a tribute to the ocean and death.
What he could see was only a part of the ceremony, and there were more traces of the ceremony in this chapel.
"However, if there is any book that records the story of the murloc, then "Mysteries of the Sea"...Mr. Jude's may not be the complete version, but the one here must be the complete version."
It wasn’t Shade’s fault that he didn’t take away Mr. Jude’s book last time, because Mr. Jude’s book must not have complete information about returning the sea, otherwise, after the church wiped out the murlocs in Old Street, it should immediately You will be able to find a way to crack the ritual.
The eyes continued to look around, and there were only three murlocs praying in low voices standing in the damp chapel, while the people sitting in the long row of seats, in addition to a dozen gray-robed murlocs, there were two people in black robes watching. The guy with an unclear face, this should be the ring magician of the church, wearing clothes of different colors to make it easy to distinguish.
The only two people not wearing robes are sitting on the leftmost side of the first row of church pews. Xia De recognized Darkness's back at a glance, and the person beside him was probably also a member of [Blood Spirit School].
"Besides me, there are four ring warlocks here. If we really want to fight, even with the witch's ring, I can't fight..."
Carefully retracting his right hand into his robe, he touched the steam bomb hanging on his waist. Although Rezia didn't say what model it was, ring warlocks couldn't tell if it exploded in this kind of underground space, and those murlocs with strong resilience would definitely be finished.
"It would be nice if I knew spells like [Corpse Explosion]."
Thinking of the two corpses in his pocket again, Xia De suddenly had an idea.
