Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Hilly areas, deep valley quarries.

The gatekeeper "slept" again and was carried away by two members of the "Mechanical Heart".

Wearing a white priest's robe, www.youxs.org, his kind and gentle face was covered with some shadows.

After the Church of the "God of Steam and Machinery" lost all its dioceses in the Kingdom of Loen, the former Archbishop Backlund, a member of the former God's Council, returned to its headquarters in Intis, and has been acting as a firefighter in the past few years. Traveling to different places, dealing with various serious supernatural events.

He knows better than most of the clergy of the Church of the "God of Steam and Machinery" that the world seems to be still peaceful, but in fact it is full of corruption and problems. Hidden dangers hidden in the darkness are everywhere. Every righteous god Church and government organizations were struggling to survive.

Horamik put his thoughts back, sighed silently, and said to the "Mechanical Heart" deacon beside him: "Let's act, God will protect us."

"Steam up!"

As he spoke, he drew the triangular holy symbol on his chest.

As the burly "Heart of Machinery" deacon issued the cleaning order, some members carried iron-black barrel-like objects, and some carried weapons that looked like steam firearms, but without backpacks and with golden bullet belts. For weapons, some took out scrolls made of leather, spells made of different metals, and some aimed rings, canes, etc. forward.

Rumble!

The golden fireball like a miniature sun flew out of the barrel first and landed in the middle of the quarry cavity.

It was followed by "cannonballs" of different colors and "bullets" of different shapes. Therefore, the rising light and scattered waves cleaned the entire deep valley quarry over and over again, but maintained the stability of the cave structure and only produced suffered a slight collapse.

After several rounds of cleaning, the secret cave in the quarry was blasted open, revealing the inside.

Horamik's eyes lit up with a dark red light that did not belong to humans, and he could clearly see that the white mist filling the secret cave had been almost completely dispelled, and the rock walls on both sides were inlaid with human arms and thighs. .

The archbishop stepped forward and led two teams of "Mechanical Heart" members through the quarry and arrived at the secret cave.

Before entering, he turned back and looked outside, looking at the deep valley monastery not too far away from here.

The Archbishop of Trier was there to monitor the situation with a sealed object.

Horamik immediately examined the human arms and legs on the rock wall and found that they were all connected to mechanical parts such as gears and crankshafts, as if they were some kind of experimental objects.

The members of the "Machine Heart" started a new round of cleaning under the order of the deacon. Until the arms, legs, and machines were all turned into ashes or fragments, they went deep into the secret cave and went down the tunnel.

After a similar process repeated several times, Horamik, who was wearing a clergyman's soft hat and had already turned pale hair, and the members of the "Mechanical Heart" came to a giant laboratory-like hall.

Here, human arms and machinery are combined to continuously grab the parts in cabinets, sinks, long tables, and iron boxes along the tracks on the ceiling, and send them to the fireside in the deepest part of the hall.

In that place, there were several human corpses piled up, and standing there was a human whose body was made up of machines.

"He" is more than three meters tall. One prosthetic eye is like an emerald, and the other is like a ruby, both of which are supported by a large number of parts. The temples are covered with a transparent special material, and the gray-white brain squirming inside can be seen.

The mechanical giant looked at Horamik and others scattered at the entrance of the hall, and let out a laugh that sounded like metal friction:

"Are you surprised? I don't need steam to provide power, and I don't need the human body to drive it. I can do anything normally, including fighting. Unfortunately, my sequence is not enough to replace the brain.

"Seeing this scene, you don't need to doubt anymore, right? We are God's beloved children, and what we listen to is God's true teachings. But you have all been eroded by worldly prosperity and enjoyment in spirit and body, and have strayed far away from God's teachings. throne!"

Horamik glanced left and right, and saw that the "Heart of Machinery" members present were extremely alert and unwavering, and nodded with satisfaction.

He turned to look at the mechanical giant, with no obvious expression change on his kind face: "It's a 'spiritual gem', right?

"Using humans to refine 'spiritual gems' is much crueler and more wasteful than using steam to drive it.

"Claude, I thought you were just lost for a while and would slowly wake up when you arrived at the deep valley monastery. Unexpectedly, you have become a heretic!"

"Heretics?" The mechanical giant laughed, "You are the heretics! How long has it been since you received an oracle?"

"Always there." Horamik replied calmly, "Claude, tell me, where is the 'hotel'? Are you cooperating with those evil gods to plan the Trier in the Fourth Age?"

Claude's eyes, which had become a mechanical giant, emitted red and green light respectively, and he solemnly said: "You have strayed far away from God's teachings, and you no longer have the spirit of sacrifice."

"The future of this world and the opportunity for God to ascend to the highest level all lie in Trier in the Fourth Age. The sooner it is opened, the greater the hope!"

Without waiting for Horamik to respond, the mechanical giant said coldly: "I'll show you who is the heretic and who is the follower of God!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the light in his two prosthetic eyes burst out, and the whole hall roared continuously, and the sound of mechanical operation echoed with a mysterious feeling.

In the blink of an eye, the members of the "Mechanical Heart" who were about to cover their firepower saw projection-like scrolls at the same time, which depicted human beings emerging from ignorance, growing step by step, and establishing different civilizations at different stages. Condition.

These scrolls are both illusory and heavy, both thin and magnificent. Horamik and others seem to be transformed into human beings in them, feeling the weight and splendor of civilization.

At this moment, a face appeared "outside the picture scroll".

"He" wears a high crown, his nostrils are so rotten that there are only two black holes left, and his eyes are filled with countless superimposed star maps. He is staring greedily at Horamik and others, and at the civilization they live in.

Silently, more faces were pasted on the surface of the scroll. Some of their heads were divided into two halves by a ruler, some were pasted on yellow paper covered with strange runes one after another, and some were pasted on the surface of the scroll. Some are covered with ears of wheat and rice, and some are simply made up of different symbols to barely form a human shape.

These faces are bigger than Horamik and others combined. They stare at the scene inside across the scroll.

The members of the "Machine Heart" who saw these faces felt fear from the bottom of their hearts, as if the entire civilization would be destroyed.

Just as they were about to lose control, the faces disappeared as eerily as they had appeared.

The scene in front of Horamik returned to normal, and the mechanical giant Claude and the crazy-running hall came into his eyes again.

The archbishop did not waver at all, but there was a bit of anger in his voice: "Heresy!"

As the sound echoed, he used his right palm to fold his left wrist, revealing a cold, dark and heavy metal pipe there.

The sound of gears biting erupted, like the light of day lighting up, covering the entire hall.

The members of "Machine Heart" also launched attacks one after another.

Boom!

There was obvious shaking in the deep valley quarry, as if it had experienced a short, violent earthquake.

...........

Underground Trier, outside the stone door where the Carbonari disappeared.

Groups of red fireballs were suspended in the air, illuminating the dark tunnel.

"Fire Flame" Daniz was wearing a linen shirt, a brown jacket and dark trousers, and a pair of black leather boots. He put one hand in his pocket and looked at the stone door not far away.

His hair and eyebrows were burnt yellow, with a piece of weed in his mouth, and his dark blue but bright eyes glanced left and right.

Nearly twenty men dressed as sailors were scattered in the surrounding area silently. Some were turning daggers, some were wiping the barrels of revolvers, and some were moving their necks...

One of the brown-haired sailors with a smile on his face broke the silence and said to "Flame" Daniz: "Captain, why should we help the Intis government hunt down the Carbonari for free?"

Daniz glanced at him, spat out the weed in his mouth, and cursed in a low voice: "Shit, do you want to watch Trier be destroyed?"

"Are you still Intis?"

As he spoke, he waved his fist towards the stone door.

Don't these bastards know that their captain owns a lot of real estate in Trier?

On the surface of Daniz's fist, the blazing white flames gathered more and more as he moved forward, and finally turned into a fireball that exuded an aura of destruction.

Boom!

The earth trembled, and the stone door fell into pieces.

Jenna fell lightly in the darkness that seemed to have no bottom. She was occasionally scratched by gravel, but she did not suffer any real damage.

After falling like this for who knows how long, her feet finally touched solid ground.

A building was reflected in her beautiful blue eyes:

It was a slightly skewed beige house. The bottom three floors had obvious Russell period characteristics, with extensive use of column walls, arches and large windows, while the top two floors were so simple that they seemed to have been added temporarily.

This is...Jianna was obviously startled.

The building in front of her was familiar to her.

That's the Golden Rooster Hotel!

At this moment, there were lights coming out of many rooms in the Golden Rooster Hotel. Jian Na saw a man and a woman hugging each other and looking outside behind a certain glass window on the third floor.

The man wore black-rimmed glasses and his brown hair was neatly combed, while the woman wore a lake-blue dress, her face was plump, and her brown eyes had a strange sense of erraticity.

Thump, thump, Jenna's heart beat violently.

She had never actually met the woman, but she knew the man: it was the disappeared playwright Gabriel!
