Goodwill

The underground passage was somewhat dim, and aside from the sound of footsteps, only the flickering lights remained.

With a crackle, one of the wall lamps went out.

"We're almost there."

The old Father was very familiar with this place. After the two of them advanced about a hundred meters, the passage clearly grew wider.

A rust-covered iron door blocked the path ahead. The old Father stood before it and glanced sideways at Su Xiao.

Su Xiao turned his back. Only then did the old Father relax and begin turning the mechanism on the iron door.

Creak, creak...

A grating sound that made one's teeth ache rang out. As the iron door opened, a strange smell wafted over.

The strange odor contained far too many scents: mildew, a faint fishy sweetness, and the stench of rotting dead fish.

Su Xiao looked inside the iron door. It contained a small secret chamber.

"Wait here for a moment."

The old Father entered the secret chamber. In less than half a minute, he emerged holding a piece of Parchment, a test tube, and an old Flintlock.

The iron door slammed shut. The old Father hurried toward the passage exit, retracing their route. A few minutes later, the two of them returned to the church.

Sitting opposite Su Xiao in a corner of the church, the old Father wiped the Flintlock in his hands, seemingly somewhat reluctant to part with it.

The old Father handed the Parchment to Su Xiao. It bore a magic array, with magic power surging across it.

"This is the 'key' to entering Ryudou Temple."

Su Xiao accepted the Parchment, and a prompt from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

You have obtained the Ryudou Temple Key: Demon Goat Skin.
