Restarting the myth

"What's a slate?"

Kerr asked aloud. The detective had a keen sense of smell and suspected that it was related to his investigative mission.

"I don't know what that stone slab is, I just know..."

Mona leaned against the iron pillar of the bed frame, frowning and talking about her investigation.

She originally planned to transfer Wayne out of Lundam City through the commission of finding pets, and use the arrangements of the Holy See to thoroughly investigate the mission target.

The location has been chosen, and it's in Eclipse Town. If nothing else happens, it's a sure bet.

As expected, she came out unexpectedly. Because of her investigation, she accidentally discovered dirty information about Mayor Wells, which caused a major incident.

Mona didn't take the mayor and his accomplices seriously at first. Small problems did not affect her in-depth investigation of Wayne.

Unexpectedly, this small problem almost forced her into a desperate situation.

"According to my search at the mayor's house, the so-called gold mine is not true. There is no gold mine at all. The mayor purchased the mine land to find a slate..."

Mona slowly said that the mayor and the necromancer were working together to provide funds for the Death Church and be protected by it. It was Dunn and the Death Church behind him who were looking for the stone slab.

"The mayor blocked the mining area for a long time and secretly ordered people to dig. The news spread and rumors of the gold mine formed."

"The mayor doesn't know much. I didn't find any extra clues at his house, but the Death Church has invested a lot of effort in him. It's possible that he came here for the slate from the beginning. I'm worried that the slate will be taken away by them if it's too late. , so I ventured into the mining area.”

As she spoke, Mona felt much better. She no longer had headaches and brain swelling, and her thoughts became much clearer.

She felt that she might have thought too much. No one touched her butt just now. She was thinking about her every day and dreaming about her at night. She must have been missing her master while she was asleep.

But just in case…

"You two, who carried me here just now?"

"he!"

Kerr decisively sold Wayne: "You know me, an ugly girl like you makes me feel sick even if I touch you."

"..."x2

Mona's eyelids twitched, but instead of correcting Kerr's erroneous aesthetic sense, Mona looked at Wayne intently.

There are differences in size, but for a magician, these are not a problem.

Thinking of this, Mona's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes sharpened for a moment. If she remembered correctly, she had peeked at Wayne's butt before, and the curves were somewhat similar.

So, Wayne is Bruce?

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Wayne scratched his face: "If it's to say thank you, there's no need. Let's be realistic. I fished you out of the mine and saved your life. You can calculate how much you are worth and just transfer the money directly. "

"Having said that, I still want to say thank you."

Mona smiled slightly. She couldn't tell whether it was true or false. She had to find an opportunity to get started.

At this time, Mona has forgotten the task of investigating Wayne. It is not important. It is more important to confirm who Bruce is.

"That money..."

"The money matter is not urgent for the time being, the top priority is to find the slate."

Mona looked at Wayne. Perhaps it was a psychological effect. The more suspicious she became, the more similar she felt.

Not afraid of all sacrifices, not afraid of the devil's ideological enslavement...

How similar!

If Wayne is indeed the person she is looking for, all the characteristics happen to correspond to Bruce. In other words, the two people she is looking for are actually the same person.

Mona took a deep breath. It was all her reserve that had caused her harm. If she had known this, she would have sneaked up and pinched her from behind that day.

On the other side, Kerr and Wayne glared at each other. They were very realistic and wanted each other to accompany Mona on a trip because the risk of mine collapse was too great.

However, out of their own interests, they did not want Mona, who represented the Holy See, to get the tablet.

It’s so confusing!

After pondering for a moment, Kerr analyzed the stakes and decisively withdrew from the competition. He joined the Free Mage Alliance to make money, and he really liked the challenging job of detective. There was no need to risk his life for a slate of unknown purpose.

Wayne is even more entangled, the elemental mountain, the stone slab, the birth of the treasure... no matter how you look at it, it is the rhythm of opportunity before you.

He felt a loss if he didn't pick up things along the way. If he quit at this time, he would wake up crying even if he fell asleep.

But what if the mine collapses?

Prudence is a matter of principle, which involves zero or countless times. Once the precedent is set, it cannot be stopped in the future.

Mona stood up unsteadily and took out the mine map from her arms: "There is no time to hesitate. The Necromancer has notified his accomplices. The other party may rush over at any time. Find out if there is a phone nearby. I Notify the cathedral..."

"By the time you notify the cathedral and the people over there arrive, we will have been turned into skeleton soldiers by the Death Mage."

Wayne gritted his teeth and stamped his feet: "Let's go to the mine now and find the slate before the Death Church arrives. Don't say anything to let these evil-doing guys get the treasure."

Mona nodded repeatedly, yes, that's it.

"I'm not going."

Kerr shook his head repeatedly. It was not his turn to find the stone slab, and he was unwilling to risk going deep into the mine.

"Then please go to the other exits of the mine and open a passage. If the entrance of the mine is blocked by people from the Death Church, Wayne and I can leave from other places." Mona did not force it.

Kerr nodded in agreement, and then added: "The ugly words are ahead. If the Death Church's large group of people really comes, I can't be their opponent. Don't expect me to delay time."

"Deploy a few traps and you'll do your best."

"That's no problem."

…

The night is getting darker, black clouds obscure the remaining stars, and Silent Hill is eerily quiet.

Wayne changed into work clothes and followed Mona into the mine, laying out several trigger traps along the way to guard against the large number of people from the Death Church.

Mona has an excellent sense of direction and follows the directions on the map to lead Wayne through the dark tunnels.

She tried several times to slow down her pace and wait for Wayne to come forward, but failed. If she took a step slower, Wayne would take a step slower. If she took a step faster, Wayne would take a step faster, firmly protecting her in front of him.

This is also very similar to the master!

After finishing the journey of laying wires, it was pitch black ahead. Mona took a short rest and recovered part of her thinking. She was unable to engage in high-intensity battles, but the lighting was still no problem.

The light was intermittent, leaving Wayne speechless for a moment. He took out the flashlight from his waist and handed it to him: "Save your magic power as much as you can, and be more flexible in your thinking. Don't always look at problems like a magician."

Mona took the flashlight, feeling like she was being scolded by Bruce again for psychological reasons.

Happy~~~

She hurriedly shook her head to dispel the strange thoughts. It was too casual to be happy now, and she was not a pervert. Once the confirmation is complete, Wayne is Bruce, and there is plenty of opportunity to be happy.

The road ahead collapsed in many places. Mona had fought several times with Dunn, who was chasing her. Her mind was severely damaged, and Dunn had exhausted his magic power, so she directly summoned divine power when facing Wayne.

Of course, it was not the power of the goddess of death, otherwise his body would not be able to bear it.

"I didn't have time to explore the next area, so I blew up a tunnel to scare the enemies away," Mona said.

Wayne's eyes twitched, and he lamented that Mona was very brave and had such a big heart for a long time. If it were him, he would not dare to do it. If it collapsed, they would both perish...

Well, it’s hard to say, maybe at that time they really had the intention of dying together.

"I'll come find you."

Wayne pressed one hand on the ground, planted a seed, controlled the vines to burst out of the ground, and explored the way forward in the same way as to find Mona.

The tight overalls trousers immediately attracted Mona to take a peek. After a visual inspection, they seemed to be a little smaller than Bruce's butt.

If the body shape also shrinks, local shrinkage is natural.

Mona secretly thought that she had a headache. According to this assumption, even if she touched Lundan's more than three million butts one by one, she would not be able to find the owner.

It’s very difficult!

Wayne searched around, and the vines spread to the surrounding mines. They either made detours or hit walls, and barely cleared a blind spot.

"Let's go to another location."

————

Outside the mine, it was nearly an hour since Wayne and Mona went deep into the mine.

Kerr followed the directions on the map and found the remaining exits of the mine that had been blown up by Wells and others. The collapse was severe. He barely cleared two passages and was too tired to move.

It consumes physical strength and magic power. If he had known this, he would not come to Silent Hill.

"!"

Suddenly, Kerr noticed the sound of the trap being triggered. He restrained his breath and looked at the entrance of the mine in the distance.

"It came so soon, and..."

There were a lot of people, and it was unclear whether it was more than a hundred, but it was definitely more than half a hundred.

"You two, hurry up, someone is coming!"

Kerr gritted his teeth, ducked into the dark night, and cautiously moved towards the entrance of the mine.

He didn't agree with his words, but he was very honest with his body. He would block the progress of the Death Church within his ability and share some pressure for Wayne and Mona.

In the direction of the mine entrance, three trucks came to a screeching halt.

Nearly sixty people jumped out of the crowded truck, each wearing a helmet and a flashlight. Inside the truck, there were green wooden boxes containing ammunition.

The situation in the mine is very complex and it is impossible to bring in an open flame. Weapons and equipment are used to set up a cordon and guard the entrance and exit of the mine.

The old man in a black suit stood at the entrance of the mine. He was tall and straight, holding a civilization stick in his hand. His clothes and hairstyle were meticulous, and his black leather shoes were polished.

His facial features were majestic and his brows were quite imposing. He was the Bishop Sebastian who Dunn had been waiting for for a long time.

"It's too late, Dunn has returned to the embrace of the goddess..."

Sebastian smelled the smell of blood in the air, followed the smell and looked towards the soil not far away, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

Although Wayne buried the bones, his method was crude and simple, and he could not hide it from an old fox like Sebastian. He could tell with just one glance that Dunn had died at the hands of a magician from the Church of Nature.

Death and nature are incompatible, new grudges add to old grudges. Sebastian holds the civilization stick tightly and vows to refine the other party into his own skeleton soldier.

"Jin, ask your people to guard this place. Not a single mouse can be released. Set up the cordon and check the surroundings again to confirm all the entrances and exits of the mine."

"Oscar, Mana, you two take people in with me and show no mercy to anyone you meet."

Sebastian gave the order and looked at the sleeping waste on both sides of the mine.

These are Wells's lackeys, almost all of whom wear police uniforms. The mayor exacts excessive taxes and continuously provides blood transfusions to the Church of Death. They rely on them to bully the unruly people.

They are all contributors to the Church of Death!

There is hard work without merit and should be rewarded.

Sebastian did not notice Wells, and his anger grew stronger. He said coldly: "I will not blame you for your failure, and I am willing to give you a chance for revenge..."

"Use your own hands!"

He picked up the civilization stick and tapped it gently on the ground. A ray of death spread out and turned into a gray arm surrounding Wells' lackey.

Flesh and blood peeled off, and the fishy smell spread.

As the rotting pus and blood sank into the ground, a row of skeleton soldiers removed their ribs to use as swords and stepped into the mine according to their master's orders.

"Go and find the natural mage who killed you..."

The movement speed of the dozen or so skeleton soldiers could not be said to be very fast. It was slower than ordinary people walking. By the time they had finished searching the complex mine, Wayne had already rolled up the stone slab and ran away.

Sebastian understood this and murmured magic spells in his mouth, waving the civilized stick in front of him.

The civilized stick tore through the space like a sharp sword, opening a curtain of darkness and lightlessness. Pale skeleton soldiers walked out one by one, with white light dancing in their eye sockets. They were more energetic than the dozen or so unlucky guys before. At first glance, they were high-level soldiers.

This is not the strongest unit that Sebastian has trained. His most proud work is the three cavalry. He was lucky enough to see the death knight in the underground catacombs of Paris. The heroic appearance lingers in his mind. , using the Death Knight as a template, he spent a lot of effort to create three cavalry.

These three cavalrymen all possess mature wisdom and are tainted with a strong aura of death. Each of them can play his own role. Taking the head of the Silver Mage from among the thousands of troops is like picking something out of a bag.

The terrain of the mine was not suitable for summoning cavalry, so he did not show his best work.

The two teams of skeleton soldiers gathered together, and as the aura of death spread out from the civilized sticks, white light danced in their eyes, and they rushed towards the depths of the mine tunnel with vigorous steps.

Through these lifeless eyes, Sebastian's perception is magnified and he can see every detail in the mine.

"Great Death Knight, I will complete your mission, get the tablet and send it to Paris..."

————

Deep in the mine.

Wayne followed Mona carefully. The vines could only be explored and could not guarantee the safety of the surrounding area. Just in case, he still used his old tricks.

When in doubt, protect your teammates.

The idea was good, but his behavior and habits were exposed. His strong personal style made Mona feel that the master was behind him more and more.

The two continued to march forward for another three hundred meters. The mine was so narrow that only one person could pass through it. The air was turbid and toxic gases were present, making their breathing gradually become heavier.

Wayne shook his head. It was too irrational to move forward, too narrow, and claustrophobic.

Mona still insisted. All other areas had been explored, leaving only this virgin land.

Moreover, Wayne also said that the traps left behind have been triggered one by one, and the Death Church is behind them. Now that they retreat, all the previous achievements will be wasted.

After walking dozens of steps, the two of them walked almost close to the gap. Mona turned on the flashlight and saw a glimmer of darkness at the end of the narrow passage.

Different from the surrounding darkness, this darkness is deeper, the light cannot reach the end, and there is a huge space inside.

"Found it."

Mona stepped on the collapsed gravel, squeezed forward against the cracks in the stone wall, and struggled through the barrier. The light hit the ground and saw the neat stone structure.

This is it!

Behind him, Wayne briefly merged with the Book of Greed, and his boneless body slid along the gap, following Mona at a safe distance of two meters, and stepped into a dark underground space.

The flashlight's light has a limited range, so Mona shines in all directions and can't see anything.

Wayne narrowed his eyes slightly, injecting magic power into his eyes to strengthen his super vision, and a gray three-dimensional silhouette appeared in front of him.

This seemed to be an abandoned underground ruins, which reminded him of the lair of the Thousand-Eyed Demon, but unlike the city summoned by the devil, the architectural style of the two was completely different.

The architectural style of this city in front of you has only one characteristic - big!

The towering walls, exaggerated pillars standing hundreds of meters tall, and the obelisk in the center of the city that sticks straight into the top of the Elemental Mountains make it look like a city where giants live.

Are there giants in God’s Chosen Continent?

No, except that Wayne never found any actual traces of the giants' existence in the documented records.

This ruins...

From another world! !
