The figure that descended from the sky was very agile. It somersaulted in the air and stood firmly on the ground.
This was a woman with a somewhat disheveled face, and most of her clothes had been damaged. She could not be more than 25 years old.
He had long brown hair and eyes of the same color. He held a dagger in his hand, which was stained with blood and chipped from a hack.
Just by looking at the dagger, Kieran could imagine what kind of bitter battle it must have gone through.
While Kieran was sizing her up, she also noticed Kieran. She cautiously took two steps back and took a defensive stance with her short sword in her hand.
"Who are you?"
The other party shouted.
Kieran didn't reply. Instead, he looked up.
A hole large enough for one person to pass through appeared in the ceiling.
"The door the assassin used?"
Guessing, Kieran was ready to find out the truth.
"That's a dead end!"
The woman who saw through Kieran's intention reminded Kieran, but when she saw Kieran continue to leap, she couldn't help but snort coldly.
Then, he bent down and began to explore the ground.
Fifteen minutes later, Kieran returned.
He frowned, not only because the end of the path was blocked, but also because he found something else worth paying attention to.
"The road was sealed because I accidentally triggered a mechanism!"
"If we want to leave, we need to find another way!"
The woman said without raising her head.
"Yes."
Kieran discreetly glanced over the man and started to search for the door that the priests who hosted the ritual used.
Meeting in an unfamiliar place caused both sides to have no intention of speaking again.
Not to mention introducing himself.
Ka, ka ka!
When Kieran pressed down on one of the eyes on the statue's pedestal, a mechanical sound was heard. The floor in front of the statue started to move back slowly, revealing a flight of stairs leading downwards.
"Well done!"
After saying that, the woman walked down the stairs.
Kieran narrowed his eyes as he stared at the man's back, then slowly followed.
There were about 40 steps leading down.
The height of each step was more than 25 centimeters. It did not meander, but went straight down. At the end of the steps was a wide hall.
Hu!
The torches on the walls lit up as the woman stepped onto the floor of the hall, illuminating the entire hall. It also allowed Kieran to easily see the stone door at the end of the corridor and the two corpses not far from the door.
These two corpses had also turned into bones.
The crossbow in the hands of one of the skeletons told Kieran and the others who they were.
"The priest and assassin who presided over the ceremony?"
Kieran looked at the two skeletons.
The assassin pierced the priest's heart with a crossbow, but his neck was crushed.
Judging from the distance between the two skeletons, it was impossible for an ordinary person to do so.
However, when he thought about the devil statue that was worshiped above him, it was not impossible that the assassinated priest had the ability to cast spells.
Of course, there was another possibility: other than the two of them, there was another person.
A person who reaped the benefits of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
It was just that it had been a long time.
It was so long that even if Kieran activated [Tracking], he couldn't find any clues.
"Come and help!"
Those two are just bones, what's there to see?
Leaving this place is the most important thing!
I don't want to stay here a second longer! "
The woman who was pushing the stone door saw Kieran staring at the two skeletons and couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Okay."
Kieran nodded and walked over to the woman.
Then, when he was two steps away from the woman, he stopped abruptly and dished out a kick.
It was sudden and without any signs.
The kick was as fast as the wind and as fast as lightning, landing on the woman's neck.
Crack!
Along with the bone-cracking noise, the woman's body was smashed into the wall. Her eyes were wide open, as if she had died with a grievance and was questioning Kieran why he killed her.
Kieran didn't answer.
He followed the woman's body like a shadow, his legs turning into layers of phantoms and shrouding the body.
When the body was beyond recognition, Kieran stopped.
Tsss!
A cloud of gray mist spurted out from the corpse and spread out faintly.
Then, the body turned dry like a painting and started to shatter into crystalline sand.
"As I thought!"
Kieran wasn't surprised at all when he saw the scene.
The moment the woman appeared, Kieran was extremely vigilant and when he checked the secret passage, his vigilance turned into suspicion.
The air in the secret passage was completely blocked.
The filthy, rotten smell forced Kieran to cover his mouth and nose when he entered.
However, the woman who went through the secret passage didn't have such a stench on her.
Of course, it was also possible that he had a certain magical item on him that isolated the smell, but how could he explain the sealed secret passage?
It wasn't something that could be done in a short period of time in order to create such a filthy, rotten smell in the secret passage.
It would at least require years of accumulation.
But what did the woman in front of him say?
"The road was sealed because I accidentally triggered a trap!"
The woman triggered the mechanism!
Then, the secret passage was sealed. The woman stayed in the secret passage for at least a few months and when Kieran appeared, she happened to descend from the sky.
It couldn't be considered a coincidence anymore.
From the very beginning, the woman appeared with a conspiracy.
"She has the looks of a normal human and has a certain level of intellect but not too high and lacks strict logic …"
Kieran thought as he looked at the stone door.
Kieran wasn't sure how the woman appeared.
However, Kieran had a certain amount of confidence in her goal.
The stone door before him.
The woman wanted Kieran to open the stone door.
The stone door wasn't tall or big.
It was similar to the door of a normal family with a courtyard.
However, without a doubt, this door was much more dangerous than the courtyard door.
Kieran's Intuition told him that when he looked at the door, he felt like he was being pointed at by a sword.
It wasn't just one sword.
There were thousands of them.
When Kieran carefully moved closer to the door, he noticed that the seemingly flat stone door was carved with dense runes.
The runes were small and they were stacking up.
If Kieran didn't get closer, he wouldn't have been able to see them clearly.
Just when Kieran was about to examine the runes on the stone door more carefully, the faint gray mist that should have dissipated suddenly thickened and filled the entire hall.
Instantly, Kieran was enveloped by the mist.
