Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Not far from the abandoned block, www.youxs.org, walking towards the cemetery.

Suddenly, he stopped, as if he felt an undercurrent surging in the darkness nearby.

Albus laughed, and thick fog suddenly surged around him, covering his figure and half of the street.

After more than ten seconds, the fog gradually dissipated, but Albus was no longer there.

He disappeared.

In the shadow just shrouded by the fog, Julie, who was wearing a slit long skirt and tied up her hair, walked out and stared at the place where Albus had stood for several seconds.

On her left middle finger was a gold ring inlaid with a blue gem.

Julie retracted her gaze, her expression a little gloomy, and walked towards the blocks where the exiles gathered.

I don’t know how long it took, in the deep night, a man’s sharp and painful screams came from a room.

…………

Lumian returned to the full-length mirror in his room, walked out, and lay on the bed.

After finding that Julie quietly left the "Carnivore" bar, he knew that the "witch" had just followed him and Guxin in secret.

This was one of the goals he wanted to achieve.

www.youxs.org.

That was to let Julie, who was temporarily acting as a bartender, hear it!

—— Although he and Guxin lowered their voices, at such a close distance, with the hearing of the "witch", it was impossible for her to not capture key information.

Of course, Lumian did not use Julie as a backup to prevent accidents at that time, because Guxin had previously watched the battle of the "witch" castrating Vijaypan, and then obviously noticed that she was beautiful and charming as a bartender.

In this case, if Guxin had a little knowledge, he would guess that Julie was a "witch" and would not be unprepared, and would not know that the other party might have heard the content of the conversation.

Lumian originally just wanted to judge the progress of the Witch Cult on the "0-01" matter through Julie's reaction:

If the Witch Cult has completed its preparations with the help of the long-term exploration of "witches" such as Sally, and only lacks the opportunity to launch the final action, then Julie will definitely not add any more trouble and will patiently maintain the status quo. In that case, Lumian will have to keep a close eye on Julie and Sally, and not let them get ahead;

If the Witch Cult is not sure enough and there is still a lot of information missing, then Julie will most likely take this opportunity to see if she can get more information from Guxin, the second most dangerous person in Morola, and the rioters connected through him, so as to make her own action plan more complete, and Lumian will not be so urgent, and will not have to follow the footsteps of the "witches" all the time, and can devote energy and time to do some exploration from other aspects.

At this point, he perfectly achieved his goal.

Now, Lumian was more looking forward to how Julie would react and what she would try to do when she followed Gusin and himself.

"Should I assassinate her on the spot, or wait patiently until Albus and Gusin separated before fighting? Or, should I go to Sallyst to discuss it first? It's a pity that I don't know where they will meet, and I can't watch the battle on the spot to confirm what cards they have. In that case, if I'm lucky enough, I might be able to kill them both at the same time..." Lumian sighed regretfully on the bed.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt some movement in Julie's room.

This "witch" is back.

Lumian sniffed and smelled a faint smell of blood.

He laughed secretly and mocked in his heart:

"Albus, have you lost your treasure? I wonder if it can grow again after you become the 'Iron Knight'...

"Just now, there was no big movement in the whole Morola, it didn't look like there was a fierce battle... So, Julie failed to lock Albus and just found a man to vent her emotions? "

Lumian waited patiently for a while, until the "exiled city" of Morola fell into deep sleep in the night, then he suddenly transformed into a shadow creature and merged into the darkness of the room.

He swam quickly, returned to the abandoned neighborhood with the volcano, came to the crack in the basement, and stared at the hole filled with thick fog again.

He felt that it was necessary to explore this area carefully, which would help him better understand some of the contents of the "0-01" seal information and further understand the situation of the underground mausoleum.

And Guxin and Albus should not have thought that he was back here again, especially when they might have been attacked by Julie!

"The fog is not as thick as before, and the visible range is thirteen or fourteen meters... Did Albus and Guxin use their own special items to strengthen the fog of war before? "Lumian looked at the fog in front of him for a few seconds and made a preliminary judgment.

He immediately pinched a ball of blazing white fire to illuminate and slowly walked into the fog of war.

The feeling the fog of war gave him was similar to before, with no other changes. Every time Lumian walked a distance, he took out a bottle of perfume and dripped a few drops on the ground.

This was a preparation for the subsequent return.

The place where Lumian was going now was the statue area marked by Gu Xin on the map.

In the foggy environment that was so quiet that it was dead silent, with only slight footsteps quietly echoing, Lumian distinguished the terrain and passed by the iron black puppets hidden in the fog.

Finally, relying on the ability of "Hunter" and the memorized map, he arrived at the target location.

There stood four gray-white stone statues more than two meters high against the rock wall.

These statues faced each other, their faces were blurred, their clothes were quite strange, and they all had a square scarf wrapped on their heads.

Surrounded by them was a half-high stone platform with an unlit oil lamp on it.

"Who made the statue? It shouldn't have been there originally. According to the seal information of '0-01', this place does not belong to the underground mausoleum, but is a normal underground... After the volcanic eruption, the power of the underground mausoleum leaked out a little. Someone took advantage of this to build four statues and place oil lamps here? What's the purpose?" Lumian stared at the blazing white fireball and muttered to himself silently.

From the style and overall layout of the statues, he felt that they should not be used by the Church of Knowledge to strengthen the seal. It was most likely made by the "Iron Cross Society", so Gu Xin knew the situation here so well.

At the same time, Lumian felt that the call from the underground became stronger.

It seemed to be behind the rock wall, waiting for him to go over.

Lumian took a breath and suppressed his inner impulse.

He walked around the four statues and the oil lamp on the half-high stone platform for several times, but found nothing special about them.

Lumian thought for a while and had two ideas:

One is to light the oil lamp and see what happens; the other is to take this opportunity to destroy it and trigger possible changes.

"Forget it, it's too dangerous to light the oil lamp, and it's not the time to do it..." Lumian thought about it and chose the second idea.

Destruction is always easier than construction!

Moreover, if an accident really happens, it is definitely more meaningful to leave a mess and escape than to leave this place intact.

Lumian grabbed a ball of bright white fire and placed it at the foot of one of the statues, letting it explode in a delayed state.

After setting up five "time bombs" in sequence, Lumian walked more than ten meters away, hid in the thick fog, and snapped his fingers.

Boom!

The four statues and the half-high stone platform were hit by a violent explosion at the same time. They cracked from the bottom, disintegrated rapidly, and collapsed into piles of rubble.

The explosion dissipated the thick fog in the area a little, and Lumian saw the status of the statues and the stone platform.

Nothing unusual happened, no danger appeared... Very good, next it depends on whether Gu Xin and the others will notice the movement here and come to check the situation, and I will ambush here, waiting to give him a fatal blow... Lumian became more and more puzzled about the role of the statues and the stone platform, and planned to use this to set a very simple trap for Gu Xin, but because it is in the blind spot of thinking, it is easy to be overlooked.

——If the statues and the stone platform are really important, Gu Xin’s first reaction after discovering the problem here must be to rush over to confirm the situation, and he will subconsciously think that the destroyer has escaped to avoid being besieged.

Lumian was about to shrink a little deeper into the thick fog, and suddenly found that the five piles of rubble began to wriggle.

They kept colliding, and in an instant they rose from the ground again, returning to stone statues and high platforms.

Exactly the same as before.

"This..." Lumian's eyes froze.

The stone statues and the half-high stone platform can be restored by themselves?

That's why the "Iron Cross" didn't send anyone to guard here...

They are not afraid of these things being destroyed!

Lumian quickly came to his senses and made a new round of attempts.

This time, after blowing up the stone statues and the stone platform, he took away some of the rubble with the "traveler's bag" and waited more than ten meters away.

The stone statues and the half-high stone platform were still restored to their original state, drawing materials from the earth, and the rubble in Lumian's "traveler's bag" became ordinary.

Lumian temporarily gave up the destruction, poured out the rubble, walked back to the four stone statues, and reached out to pick up the glass-covered oil lamp.

The oil lamp was filled with semi-solid and semi-liquid light yellow oil, and a wick like a braid of black hair was inlaid on top.

The more Lumian looked at it, the more familiar it felt.

He began to recall the source of the familiarity.

Ten seconds later, he suddenly reached into the "traveler's bag" and took out something.

It was a yellowish-reddish, semi-solidified object in a transparent glass bottle, with a thicker black wick inserted on the top.

Corpse oil candle!

Corpse oil candle made from the corpse oil of the 'Iron Knight' and the 'Desperate Witch' mixed with other things!

The oil lamp on the half-high stone platform was a bit like it.

Lumian muttered to himself silently:

"Ms. 'Magician' said that Trier in the Fourth Epoch and somewhere in Bansi Harbor are the two most suitable scenes for corpse oil candles to work...

"What about the underground mausoleum of Morola, which is very similar to Trier in the Fourth Epoch?"
