After walking around on the second floor, Wei Miao walked down the spiral staircase and came to the first floor.
The hall on the first floor is spacious and magnificent, with coexistence of magnificence and solemnity.
Very suitable as a gathering place. Perhaps the All Saints' Day dinner that Dale wanted to join in was held here.
However, as soon as he reached the center of the hall, Wei Miao suddenly noticed a touch of perception.
Perception of the souls of special residents!
Wei Miao looked at the square white-brown floor tiles under her feet, sensing the direction directly below.
"The special residents should all have returned to the Requiem Realm. This one is probably the most special, even more special than Newman."
She squatted down and pressed one hand on the floor tile. On top, a strange feeling arises spontaneously.
Similar to the situation when entering the Requiem Realm, Wei Miao held a sickle in both hands and slashed it into the void in front of her.
The dark crack opened, and she turned into a spirit of nothingness and got into it. When she recovered her form, she was standing at the top of a set of steps.
Behind her was a dark green iron door, an extinguished light bulb hung on the ceiling, and the white wall next to it was severely peeled off.
Everything is shrouded in darkness, although it has no effect on Wei Miao, who has dark vision.
There is a dark green iron door at the end of the steps, already rusty.
"The structure here looks like a basement." Wei Miao looked around, "Is this the secret hidden under the city hall?"
The iron door behind him could not be opened. It seemed that Just a decoration.
This is definitely related to Silent Death, and the way in and out is the same as the Requiem Realm. However, everything here is made of real matter, because she is still in ghost form.
The Requiem Realm, as a special place to accommodate souls, is not made of real matter.
This should be the place that existed under the mayor's residence before the catastrophe.
“The iron door behind us should be the entrance to the basement, but it can no longer be used. We can only use the ‘node’ to get in from outside.”
The crack that Wei Miao cut open the soul hunter is called As a "node", in her opinion, it is something similar to a space channel, linking two places.
"But I can trigger my perception in the city hall, which means that this place is very close to the ground. It stands to reason that this place can be discovered when the city hall was being built, but it can still be preserved today... I prefer that due to the interference of some kind of force, this place has not been discovered. . ”
With extraordinary things, everything is possible.
Wei Miao walked down the low steps and came to the iron gate at the end.
She was looking forward to what she would see when she opened the iron door.
A space similar to the Requiem Realm... Instinct told her that the biggest secret lay here.
Holding the giant scythe in her left hand and pressing the door handle with her right hand, Wei Miao pushed the door open without hesitation.
The green light lost the barrier of the iron door and was reflected on her decayed mask.
The sudden light made her slightly narrow her red eyes, staring coldly at the scene in front of her.
On the ground is a huge magic circle with a diameter of more than five meters. It is very similar to the structure in the supernatural copy. The classic circular outer ring can be divided into seven parts in terms of decoration.
Using ritual knowledge to analyze, the basic structure is divided into outer ring and cornerstone structure diagram. The outer ring of this array is a single line, and the cornerstone structure diagram is a heptagon.
As an unusual single-line outer ring, it allows the accumulated power to leak out in a limited and continuous manner. It is generally designed to control the efficiency of energy release.
External power can also be absorbed, but it cannot be stored well. This is a structure that goes in and out.
The heptagon is not a common structure. This simple geometric polygon is generally used in terms of the number of side lengths.
Besides, the seven lines radiating from the center of the circle cut the heptagon into seven equal parts. Each part should be treated as a unit, and the whole should be calculated from the part.
"Seven" represents holiness, perfection, and cycle. Judging from the 300-year history, if this array is a sacrificial array, it should mean "complete".
From accumulation to perfection, the soul hunter keeps hunting, perhaps just for this reason.
The interior that resembles a combination of cross bones and sickles fills the middle part, indicating that this circle is related to the Silent Death.
The bone patterns in adjacent parts can be combined into a horizontal bar, and the overall appearance forms an unenclosed seven-pointed star. The seven-pointed star has the meaning of dangerous sacrifices and is also used to worship gods.
The decorations on the inner circle are gorgeous and complex, and their meaning and function are beyond the vague vision of ritual science and cannot be deciphered.
Different occult sects have their own unique decorative patterns, which symbolize the occult meaning of the sect and play a unique role in combination with prayers.
A magic circle cannot be fully interpreted without understanding the deity it points to.
At this moment, the lines of the magic circle were burning with short green flames. Although they were strong, they did not feel hot.
There are seven rings at the vertex of the heptagon, and the inner ring is notched outward. The structure is very rare.
This is generally a sacrificial space where ritual objects or sacrifices can be placed.
At this moment, there were seven white candles placed on the altar, with a blood-stained crow feather stuck in the middle of the candle.
Dark green fireworks are jumping arrogantly.
The light and shadow shook, and a gray cross stood in the center of the circle.
A thin humanoid figure was tied to it with iron chains.
The green fireworks followed the contact between the cross and the ground, licking up.
Every inch of its skin was burning with this terrifying cold flame, and the burning sound was endless.
A foul smell filled the room.
However, its body is basically complete and its original appearance can be seen clearly.
"A completely naked...monster."
Wei Miao commented secretly in her heart.
It has light green skin, dark green hands and ankles, and its huge head is almost deformed compared to its thin body. It has only short, sparse brown-black hair on its head, and long and sharp fingernails on its hands.
Seemingly hearing the sound of the iron door being pushed open, it raised its head and looked directly at the visitor.
The moment their eyes met, Wei Miao was stunned for a moment.
What a hatred as deep as the abyss!
The purest hatred, malice, madness... It's like breaking through a prison full of wails and laughter, coming across the boundless time and space.
His extreme emotions have exceeded the limits that his body and expression can express. He can capture the soul, trample the will, and destroy all living things in front of him with just one glance!
But Wei Miao is not an ordinary person after all.
While breathing, she had expelled all intrusive resentment and firmly suppressed her state of mind.
So what if the hatred that wants to destroy everything is comparable to how careless they are?
She did not look away.
"Corpse...ghost?"
The hoarse voice echoed, causing the creatures on the opposite side to widen their brown eyes.
It laughed like a cuckoo crying blood, revealing a mouth of fine and sharp teeth.
The facial features are twisted together, and the appearance is extremely ugly.
"Old thing..." Its smile is indescribable. It is a mixture of contempt and relief, indescribably complex.
"Has your spirit deteriorated to the point where you only recognize me as a ghoul? Don't you hate this word the most?"
The sharp broken voice mocked.
“I have been burned here for more than three hundred years... Just to get rid of the shell of a ghoul... You want me to be a human... Hahaha... What’s so good about being a human... Why not When the ghouls...killed all the people in those small towns..."
"You kept insisting on calling my name, but when the ceremony was just about the last step, you called me a ghoul for the first time... Don’t you feel sad... You should have tasted the pain of burning your body long ago... Hahahaha... Is it really worth these hundreds of years..."
It cried and laughed, going crazy. .
At the last moment, it suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously:
"Father... the time has come, it's time to kill me!" (End of Chapter)
