The door finally opened completely, and everything in the inner hall was completely reflected in their sight … The air was filled with a faint bloody mist, and naturally, there was also the smell of blood.
The place where the god lived was not bright, and even looked gloomy. The walls, the floor, and even the pillars of the inner hall were intertwined with roots.
They were like blood vessels that were pulsating rhythmically … If one looked carefully, one would find that the source of these roots was actually the blindfolded woman who was sitting upright.
It was her feet!
Her feet were like tree roots that were rooted on the floor.
At this moment, Mayfair almost knelt on the ground when she saw the god — she even knelt down, and her eyes were full of too many information.
Awe, shock, doubt … fear.
"She doesn't seem to know that you are here," Boss Luo said calmly at this time.
I don't know why he said "you" instead of "we" … Mayfair didn't even think carefully about whether this sentence was inappropriate, she just opened her mouth and said subconsciously, "I … I don't seem to feel the breath of the goddess' life."
Boss Luo thought for a while and said, "You said that you saw the conversation between Captain Malik and the monster in the inner hall?"
"I'm sure!" Mayfair nodded, "But it doesn't seem to be here now?"
Luoqiu then asked, "Miss Mayfair, you said that because you saw the monster pretending to be a god, and then it swallowed the sacrifice you sent up the mountain … Can you tell us the specific situation you saw? Logically speaking, if there is nothing, you shouldn't come to the temple, right? "
Mayfair looked at the motionless female god in fear and nodded hesitantly, "Yes, except for important days, the people of the tribe are not allowed to enter the temple … But I was actually a trainee of the temple guards."
"A trainee?"
"Sorry, I didn't tell you before." Mayfair nodded and said, "At that time, as a trainee, I was sent to the temple and had been receiving training. During that time, I lived in the temple … Of course, as a trainee, I was not allowed to enter many places and could only move within a limited area. "
"Actually, during that period of time, I've always been very obedient. Every day, other than completing the training mission, I would return to my room and never wander off … I'm about to complete the training mission and become an official member of the Guardian Squad. This is a very high honor in the tribe. Because of this, I often couldn't sleep in the days when the training was about to end. "
Mayfair laughed bitterly. "Perhaps I was too excited at the time … … the day before the end of the training, I was unable to fall asleep. My mind was filled with thoughts of the end of the training the next day and being promoted to an official member. I don't know why, but all I wanted to do was go outside. I've thought about it. I've been on the mountain for quite some time, but there are still many places I haven't been to … "
"So …" Boss Luo smiled and said, "You broke the rules you've always followed on the last day?"
"I knew that after the second day, I would be able to openly patrol the other parts of the temple." Mayfair sighed. "But at that time, I couldn't control my rebellious impulse … Do you know? I walked alone in those forbidden places. In the darkness of the night, there was a unique charm. I think I won't feel this feeling again after I become an official member. Gradually, I unconsciously avoided the patrolling guards and went deeper and deeper. Finally, I came to the inner temple. "
"I see light. It's the light that's coming from this door." Mayfair said with a pale face, "I knew this was the place where the Gods lived. At that time, I wanted to leave immediately … But at this time, I heard a scream! Then, a figure suddenly fell out of the door! "
At this moment, Mayfair covered her face with both hands, only revealing her widened eyes. "She's covered in blood. I recognize this child! She was the child I sent up the mountain during the training … I even talked to her! We even encouraged each other … She, Mailive, she was my good friend! She saw me and even reached out her hand to me. She wanted me to save her! But I didn't. I was stunned. My mind was blank and my strength seemed to have been sucked out. I could only look at Mailive like a stone. She was slowly dragged in by something. Then, there was her scream … In the end, there was no sound. I ran away. I ran back to my room without a care in the world. "
"The next day?"
Mayfair said, "The next day, I didn't participate in the final training. I left the temple without permission … They thought I gave up the test. Because of that, I was imprisoned by the tribe. I told them what I saw in the temple, but they didn't believe me. No one believed me. I was imprisoned … Then, one day, the village chief came to me and told me that I had been chosen by the shrine and was going to be the new sacrifice … "
She sighed slowly. "I knew that no matter what I said, no one would believe me … How could they believe that the God they had always respected was actually a man-eating demon? All along, everyone thought that being chosen to become the sacrifice and enter the temple was the highest honor. We never thought that becoming a sacrifice was a horrible thing. Because we all knew that the so-called sacrifice was a gift from the God. We could enter the God's kingdom because of it. That was the ideal place for us elves. But who would have thought … that it was not the case at all. I gave up on proving myself and silently waited for an opportunity. Finally, on the day before I was sent to the temple, which is the [Today] that I have been experiencing, I found an opportunity and escaped from the village. Then, I escaped into the [Forest] … You know what happened after that. "
"So, you didn't enter the inner temple and see everything clearly." Boss Luo said, "Then, when you entered the door just now, how could you be sure that she was your God?"
"Because I have seen it." Mayfair said seriously, "We were born and grew up … All along, every festival, we would go up the mountain to worship. The God would also appear and pray for us. Thus, we have all seen the God's appearance … Now, seeing her appearance is enough to prove it! A demon must have snuck in here and even made the God look like this. Then, it pretended to be her! Captain Malik must also know about this because he has been looking for fresh food for the demon! These roots must be the demon's curse to the God … No, I have to save her! "
After saying that, Mayfair walked quickly to the blindfolded woman who was sitting upright. She even easily reached the blindfolded woman and reached out to grab her hand.
"There is warmth … The God is not dead!" Mayfair suddenly shouted in surprise.
After saying that, she bent down and intended to carry the female God out of the chair – but at this moment, she seemed to have discovered something and screamed again.
Mayfair was so scared that she stepped back and finally tripped over the roots on the ground and fell to the ground … She looked at the God on the chair in horror – because of her movement, the God's body was no longer dignified. Instead, it was crooked.
What did she see?
What she saw was the God's back … Her back was actually covered with dense roots!
At this moment, the blindfolded woman's body was already crooked. The golden cloth on her face suddenly slid down … She saw a pair of blindfolded eyes.
It was blood-red and had no pupils … and the seated female deity's body seemed to have come alive. She suddenly stretched out her hand, and her palm suddenly turned into rapidly extending tentacles that directly wrapped around the female deity!
Mayfair was shocked and desperately struggled … She looked back in horror, only to see that Boss Luo was also completely entangled by the roots on the ground … It had become a huge cocoon!
Mayfair was even more frightened. Her neck was completely strangled by the roots, and she was almost suffocated. She could not say anything — perhaps she would be strangled to death like this.
However, the roots had unknowingly stopped shrinking … She still had difficulty breathing, but she could feel that the roots had really stopped moving.
"It seems that a little mouse has run in."
She heard a voice … She instantly remembered this voice — This was the voice that had spoken to Captain Malik: The demon that pretended to be a God!
Mayfair looked at the voice and saw a figure slowly walking out from a door behind the God's chair.
A man … His skin was slightly pale, and his appearance was very neat.
He walked out slowly, and even used a handkerchief to wipe his lips — as if he was cleaning up after a meal.
"Demon … Demon …" The elf lady squeezed out a voice with difficulty.
"Demon?" The man folded the handkerchief he used to wipe his mouth and hung it on his chest pocket. He opened his arms slightly and said indifferently, "Look at me … Compared to the goddess in front of you, who looks more like a monster?"
"It must be you! You're the one who cursed the gods! You made the God become like this! "Mayfair was furious," It's you who has been eating my people! "
"I remember now. It's your smell." The man smiled slowly and said, "You are the child standing outside the door that night … I heard from Malik that after you went down the mountain, you went everywhere and told the elves what you saw. I had no choice but to let you become the chosen one. I heard that you have escaped. Why did you come back? Isn't it good to leave? Of course, I don't mind you coming to me. "
As he spoke, the man slowly walked up to Mayfair. He reached out his hand and gently touched Mayfair's cheek. He smiled and said, "I think you must taste pretty good. It's a pity that I've only just had my fill. Although the taste isn't that great … But it's alright, I can wait for the next meal."
"You … Don't touch …"
Mayfair didn't finish her words. The roots wrapped around her instantly climbed up and directly sealed her mouth.
The man then looked at the other person in the inner hall … Boss Luo who had been wrapped into a big cocoon behind Mayfair.
He slowly walked over and said with a smile, "You know what we're going to eat next. I wonder what the next meal will be … I'm really looking forward to it. This feeling of knowing what's going to be revealed is really exciting."
Mayfair struggled desperately. Her eyes were full of eagerness.
The man had already walked to Boss Luo's big cocoon … But at this time, he suddenly turned around and smiled, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you. Your God was actually dug out by me from the quiet forest at the foot of the mountain … It is the monster you mentioned."
Mayfair didn't believe it. But what she saw in front of her made her believe — the dignified God, her face, her body, at this time, had turned into rough tree bark!
"It's quite surprising." The man's eyes were full of ridicule, "Right?"
So, he ignored Mayfair at this time and turned to the big cocoon in front of him … The roots on the big cocoon loosened little by little. The man's eyes were full of expectation.
"What is it, a young and beautiful child? Or a masculine and righteous warrior … "The man narrowed his eyes," Or a lost sheep in panic? "
Finally, the roots had been untied, and the man could clearly see the appearance of the prey he caught.
A young man with black hair and black eyes, a calm young man — Boss Luo stood there, not panicking because of being trapped.
When the man was looking at him, Boss Luo was also looking at the mysterious man.
Although it was somewhat unexpected, the man in the inner hall looked sideways at this time. After a while, he gently frowned and said, "You … are a servant?"
"Don't you know me?" Boss Luo smiled and said, "We have met before … Mr. Varley."
Mr. Varley.
The man who appeared in the inner hall of the temple was the owner of the castle … one of the heirs of the Tzimische Family, Varley Tzimische!
…
"Well, you are indeed a servant." The man … Mr. Varley in front of him nodded faintly at this time, "However, although you are a servant, I am not the Mr. Varley you have met."
Boss Luo was curious, "Oh? Could it be that there are two Mr. Varys … or rather, the two are actually twin brothers. "
"That's a secret." The Mr. Varley in front of him smiled, "And most importantly, you will never know what the answer to this secret is … Although you can come here, it will probably give the other me a headache, but the headache will soon disappear. This is another perfect game. "
As he spoke, [Mr. Wally]'s face turned cold, "I've changed my mind … More food."
As soon as he raised his hand, the intertwined roots in the inner hall shot out in an instant … They were extremely sharp as if they could pierce through everything. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of roots had directly pierced Boss Luo's body.
But at this moment, these sharp roots actually started to bend … It was as if they weren't stabbing into soft skin, but rather hard metal.
"You?" Mr. Varley was startled.
Immediately, Boss Luo's body flashed with colorful brilliance, and a set of radiant sun-like armor directly covered his whole body. And that big … holy light sword!
"This set and this sword are …" [Mr. Varley] was shocked and subconsciously took two steps back.
He suddenly felt very anxious.
