The Dean Has Arrived

The strange thing Shallan discovered was located in a rather Gothic-style building. ▲∴

Although it is much larger than ordinary houses, it is not very majestic compared with the tall towers in this city. However, the murals and strange runes carved on the eaves of the building make this building even more majestic. It is obviously different from the surrounding houses, and has more of a mystical color.

"The function of this building in this civilization should be similar to that of a church," Shallan explained as she led Fleur and Tio into this strange building: "Because my bat found a statue of a god inside... Well, Probably statues of gods... and something like a confessional."

As soon as you walk into the building, the first thing you see is a walkway about a hundred meters long. On both sides stand dark red stone pillars that are thick enough for three people to hug each other. The stone pillars are carved with similar statues to those on the eaves, but these statues inside all have unique features. The part used as a lamp.

Only now there are no oil lamps or candles on it.

"The hall is behind this corridor," the little vampire pointed to the rusty double doors at the end of the corridor, and said to Fleur, who was frowning, "The thing I mentioned is right there."

"I don't know if this building is a church, but at least this corridor is not simple."

Fleur squinted her eyes and looked at the statues and runes on the surrounding stone pillars, and said in a deep voice: "This may be an incomplete ritual. The ritual process is for people to walk from the door to the entrance of the hall. Every step they take, this kind of The ritual will exert a psychological suggestion on the person who performs the ritual, that is, the person walking in the corridor, causing them to have a considerable sense of awe for 'something'. After walking the entire corridor, the subject may not know I don’t realize that I have a certain degree of awe and even belief in ‘something’.”

"Really? But I didn't feel anything wrong at all when I came in before..."

Shalan was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief.

"Because the ritual requires the form of 'walking', and your bat flies in. Nature will not be affected...and the method of applying this psychological suggestion is very clever. If I were not affiliated with the Pure White Church, for the Holy Light I have the purest faith and will immediately notice if my faith is shaken. I’m afraid even I won’t be able to detect this easily.”

The look on Fleur's face became serious: "If you use this method to deceive believers, if you put it on the Eastern Plains, you can already be regarded as a cultist registered in the heresy tribunal."

"What should we do now? Let's fly there?"

Saran didn't quite understand what Fleur said, so she decided to change the subject: "What I said is okay, and Tio should be fine too, but Fleur, you can't fly?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tio beside her immediately raised her wand and chanted softly, causing Fleur to float up like a dandelion.

Obviously, as a person favored by the wind element, Tio would have no problem flying with one or two people as long as he has a divine outfit.

With Tio's help. The three of them passed through the corridor smoothly and arrived at the hall.

The layout of the hall is very similar to that of the churches in the eastern plains. First there are three rows of benches (but they are almost decayed now), then there is a high platform for the choir. Next to the high platform is a small room made of wood and iron, and The confessional in the church is similar, and finally there is the pulpit and the statue of the god.

The statue of the pure white church is either a cross or simply a silver ball.

But the idols here are different. It is a strange silver statue about two meters high and wearing a cloak.

The silver statue has four hands. In his hands were a hard-cover book, a flaming sword, something resembling a sundial, and a funnel.

There are long curved horns on its head, and most of its face is covered by the cloak, but you can still see four eyes on its face, each made of four different kinds of gems. Even after countless hours of hard work, the gem still shines brightly, and the girls even have the illusion that the statue is looking at them.

Its body is twisted and does not look like a human being at all, although the shape of its hands and feet look similar to that of a human being. But clearly this creature is not human.

"This civilized religion is really disgusting. It actually treats such things as gods."

Although she had seen it when she was in bat form, Shalan still couldn't help but sigh.

This is also the first time today that Fleur agrees with Saran's words from the bottom of her heart.

How distorted must one's aesthetic sense be to regard such a thing as a god...

"Is this the strange thing you're talking about?"

Looking away from the statue, Fleur asked Saran.

Although it had a strange appearance, Fleur could not find anything wrong with it after looking at it for a long time. It seemed to be just an ordinary silver statue.

"Of course not," Shalan blinked innocently: "Is this just an ordinary statue?"

"..."

Please say this from the beginning.

Trying her best to suppress the complaints in her throat, and finally turning them into a long sigh, Fleur asked a little exhausted: "Then what do you mean by strange things?"

She made up her mind that if Shalan was still so unreliable, she would give Shalan a good beating even if it caused a gap between the Pure White Church and the Dark Night Nobility - anyway, at this super close distance, ordinary magicians His mobility is definitely not as good as hers. Even Xi Wei, as long as she turns on the winged angel mode unexpectedly, she can still enjoy a few punches, although it may not be useful...

"Talking about the seal on the table," Shallan seemed to have sensed Fleur's hidden anger, and explained honestly: "I couldn't lift my bat. It seems to be connected to the table. This is very unreasonable, so I think that might be a trap."

"You mean, there is a secret passage here?"

Fleur's eyes lit up. She originally thought that the reason for coming here was just because Shalan was stupid, but she didn't expect that there would actually be a clue.

Since nothing can be found on the surface, can we find some clues in the hidden parts of this city?

Thinking of this, Fleur no longer hesitated and carefully held the seal. She first lifted it and found that it really couldn't be lifted, then she tried to turn it clockwise.

But nothing happened.

"Did I guess wrong?" Shalan showed an embarrassed expression.

"No, you guessed it right."

Fleur raised her chin towards Saran.

Shalan looked in the direction indicated by Fleur, and saw Tio opening the door of the confession room. The floor of the room, which was not much bigger than a phone booth, had mysteriously disappeared, and only a dark hole appeared in front of them. Like a monster's huge mouth, it makes people feel inexplicably frightened. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
