He Ao raised his head and stared at the deepest part of the corridor.
Vaguely, he sensed some kind of silent danger in the deep silence of the church.
And the attraction is so tempting, like poppies blooming in the dark night.
He thought for a moment, turned off the water, and stepped lightly.
His steps were so light that there was no sound.
Tick tock??? tick tock???
The remaining water dripping from the faucet fell into the bathroom basin, making a soft sound.
Deep in the corridor were two rooms, both of which had their doors ajar.
The attraction came from the room on the left, and he slowly opened the door.
The layout here is very simple, with a few seats and an altar with a cross.
This seems to be a small chapel where only a few people can worship.
There is also a small chapel inside the large chapel.
There are nesting dolls inside the nesting dolls.
He Ao raised his head, crossed the seat, and looked at the cross on the altar.
That attraction comes from behind and below the cross.
But behind the cross is the wall.
He Ao walked around the altar and walked to the wall.
The cold Moonlight sprinkled on the ancient cross through the dusty glass.
There should be no Hidden Space behind the wall, just a separate wall.
He Ao took two steps back, turned on Hyper-memory, and stared at the cross.
There is nothing special about the cross itself, it does not show the characteristics of Transcendental, and the attraction that attracts He Ao does not come from the cross.
But He Ao noticed something else.
He closed Hyper-memory, stepped onto the altar, and walked in front of the cross.
The cross is about three meters high, and the beam is nearly two meters high. Nell, who is just over 1.8 meters, can reach out and touch the upper surface of the beam.
He Ao reached out and touched it, then withdrew his hand.
The upper surface of the beam is clean and free of dust.
There is dust on the glass in this small chapel, and the floor is not very clean. It has obviously not been cleaned for a long time, but there is no obvious dust on the flat surface of the cross beam.
He Ao stared at the vertical pole of the cross. There seemed to be a thin metal sheet attached to the back.
He Ao thought for a moment, held the vertical pole of the cross with one hand and the horizontal pole with the other, and suddenly lifted the cross up.
This cross is not light, weighing almost three to four hundred pounds. It is not easy for ordinary people to lift.
Click——
With a crisp sound, the cross seemed to be stuck on some mechanism, and He Ao let go of his hand.
At this moment, the cross has been suspended and fixed on the metal piece behind it.
He Ao Hold the cross beam and pull it down hard. The cross turns 180 degrees counterclockwise and becomes an inverted shape.
Click——
The cross was stuck again, and the altar under He Ao shook.
He Ao jumped off the altar.
There is no dust on the upper surface of the beam, which means that the cross is often turned over and the upper surface becomes the lower surface, so naturally there is no dust.
However, putting the cross upside down is considered by some to give up salvation and blasphemous to God. In Rock City, a city with a strong religious atmosphere, even if someone guessed that the cross was placed upside down, they would not dare to actually turn the cross upside down.
He Ao is different, He Ao is not religious.
Nell is not religious either.
When a person encounters a major setback, he will either completely fall into the arms of God or completely abandon God.
Nell belongs to the latter type.
But this place of worshiping gods uses some kind of blasphemous emblem as a method to open the mechanism???
Miners Mutual Aid Society, it seems not as simple as He Ao imagined.
The altar under the cross slowly moved away, revealing an inverted triangular hole, and a deep staircase extending from the hole to the depths of the ground.
When He Ao was looking at the stairs, two "factory"-shaped metal rods extended from the walls on both sides of the stairs, like two handrails.
However, the handrail was a little short. He Ao stepped forward and looked at the metal pole. The metal pole was sunken in the middle, seeming to form some kind of track. This track extended from the metal pole to the walls on both sides of the ladder, and finally extended to the deepest part of the ladder.
He Ao waited for a moment, but nothing changed at the entrance of the cave.
He thought for a moment and stepped onto the stairs.
There is no light at the entrance of the stairs, and the deepest part is pitch black. However, with He Ao's eyesight, he can barely see the outermost staircase clearly with the help of Moonlight.
He continued inside.
The moment his body was completely submerged into the dark staircase, there was a slight vibration. The altar that had been moved away was slowly moving back, blocking all the light.
At the moment when the entire stairway fell into darkness, a light suddenly lit up above He Ao's head.
Then the lights came on one after another, extending to the end of the stairs.
There, there is a bright red door.
This deep staircase is like a passage leading to hell, and behind the bright red door is hell.
He Ao looked back at the passage he came in. At the bottom of the altar, a dark red emblem was vaguely revealed.
It was an inverted triangle pattern with an open eye embedded in the middle.
He Ao does not recognize this pattern, but according to his long-term experience with friends, this pattern should point to a Evil God.
He turned back and continued walking down the stairs, and soon arrived at the bright red door.
When He Ao touched the door, he vaguely heard a sharp whistle in his ears, which seemed to be the lament of the deceased.
This lamentation lingers in the ears of He Ao, describing their fear of death and desire for life.
But they were just talking and didn't dare to attack at close range.
He Ao opened Hyper-memory, and in an instant, he noticed the Vengeful Spirit wrapped around the door.
He set his sights on those Vengeful Spirit.
Vengeful Spirit, who was complaining in the middle, stopped for a moment, then looked at He Ao, as if thinking whether He Ao was looking at it.
It moved its body, and He Ao's eyes followed it.
After confirming that He Ao was looking at it, it retracted into the door with a swipe.
He Ao The buzzing noise in his ears disappeared.
He smiled and shook his head, then naturally opened the bright red door.
What caught his eye was not some dark cave, but an underground space with smooth floors and bright lights.
There is a slight stale, musty smell in the air, but it's not heavy.
The space is not large, with rows of bookshelves arranged in sequence.
This seems to be an underground library.
He Ao walked to the first bookshelf. On the side of the bookshelf, there was the number of the bookshelf, "z".
He Ao looked at the letter "z" for a moment, and then quickly moved to the books on the bookshelf.
These books are not books whose titles begin with z, but some strange miscellaneous books.
The deep attraction came from the deepest part of the space, but He Ao did not continue forward, but stopped and glanced at the miscellaneous books on the bookshelves.
He picked up a book casually and flipped through "Church of the God of Chaos Evolution", and then picked up a book "**Witch's Dance Ritual - How to Maximize Your Partner's **" and flipped through it.
Then, he picked up a book "God of Knowledge Church Structure". In fact, he saw this book as soon as he came in, but he did not choose this book immediately. Being too eager would expose his true inner thoughts.
He Ao flipped through the book. This book roughly tells the story of the church of God of Knowledge. Different from the regular church, which has an obvious organizational structure, the church of God of Knowledge is relatively loose, and even the priests do not know each other.
God of Knowledge's criteria for selecting priests are rather picky, so there is often only one member of the God of Knowledge church around several cities. uuread a book
Correspondingly, the priests of each God of Knowledge church have high combat effectiveness and possess all kinds of secret knowledge.
Unlike the strict selection of priests, God of Knowledge is not very picky when it comes to treating believers. Even if you are not a believer of God of Knowledge, you can obtain the knowledge you want by offering sacrifices to God of Knowledge.
Of course, the premise is that you must first communicate with God of Knowledge.
The book specifically mentions that communicating God of Knowledge has a high possibility of failure. Not every communication ceremony can communicate God of Knowledge. Even if communication is achieved, K may ignore you.
Later, it also introduced in detail how to improve the success rate of God of Knowledge's communication ceremony. He Ao glanced at it and put the book back.
He doesn't really need methods to improve the success rate. Based on his friendship with Good Friend, Good Friend is always available.
While putting the books back on the bookshelf, He Ao's eyes once again swept over the bookshelf without leaving any trace. Most of the books were about occult knowledge.
Finally, his eyes fell on a small yellowed book called, "First District Martial Arts Cultivation Examination".
