Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Audis smiled slightly at Bonewatt's words, Bernardette's younger brother: "Since I'm so dangerous, why doesn't the 'God of Steam and Machinery' just descend and kill me?

Instead of sending you, someone who obviously can't kill me?"

In Audis's opinion, as long as Bernardette was there, Bonewatt couldn't kill him.

Originally, he wanted to satirize the 'God of Steam and Machinery' with a few words, but thinking that Bonewatt was now a devout believer, such words would easily bring the conversation to a standstill.

Audis still planned to chat for a while to see if he could get more information about the upper echelons of the Steam Church.

"That's because," Bonewatt, who also had chestnut hair, said: "Killing you now is the same as helping you, and also helping the 'Hermit'."

Audis was stunned: "Helping me? Helping the 'Hermit'? What do you mean?"

Bonewatt just looked at him, obviously not planning to tell Audis more information.

At this time, Bernardette asked: "Then why are you here? Not to kill Audis, but to kill me?"

Bonewatt said: "I'm here to drive you away. This is not a place for you to play adventure games."

Gadrilya, who had been silent, was surprised by the Steam Church's emphasis on the 'Hermit', and at the same time, understood why there would not be too much danger when encountering high-level enemies in the 'Queen's' previous prediction.

Although Bonewatt is a high-level enemy, whether from the perspective of strength or background, they are not in great danger.

Audis's mind raced, and he suddenly thought of the complex symbols he had seen in the ruins before: "Is this the Stiano family's ruins?"

He suddenly thought that the symbol, like a family crest, was very similar to the 'Mechanical Holy Emblem'.

The main body of the 'Mechanical Holy Emblem' is also an inverted triangle, with geometric figures composed of line segments in the middle, but it does not have the illusory equilateral triangle behind it, and the 'Mechanical Holy Emblem' has a gear outside the geometric figure in the middle.

The addition of gears completely changed the original 'family crest' of the Stiano family.

Bonewatt replied: "Yes."

Bernardette and Gadrilya were both stunned. They both knew that the Stiano family was the predecessor of the Steam Church. Bernardette had known it a long time ago, and Gadrilya had only learned about it recently from the Tarot Society.

Audis then asked: "It is not difficult to see from the family crest of the Stiano family that it is a family that attaches great importance to magic formations. Why did they abandon the research in magic formations after the Fifth Epoch?"

Most of the time, the hexagram represents a magic formation, and the Stiano family's family crest has such a structure of illusory and uncertain family crest.

Audis had previously speculated that the reason why many advanced magic formations were lost was because the families who mastered these magic formations had declined, so those magic formations were no longer used.

For example, after the Abraham family declined, no one understood the 'Teleportation Magic Formation'.

But the Stiano family did not decline, but 'carried forward', so why did they give up the research on magic formations?

Bonewatt said: "Because, popularizing high-end magic formations and ancient mystics' writings can easily awaken a very evil existence, so the Steam Church simply cut off the research and inheritance of high-end magic formations.

"And because ancient mystics' writings are different from human writing thinking, there is no need to stop it, and gradually fewer people will know it."

Audis was stunned for a moment, not expecting to get such an answer.

He then asked: "What kind of existence will be awakened?"

Bonewatt glanced at Audis with his blue eyes, and like just now, kept silent.

Bernardette suddenly felt that the scene in front of her was a bit ridiculous, and she didn't expect Audis and Bonewatt to be able to chat.

Gadrilya was once again confused by the 'Hermit's' knowledge, wondering where he came from? Why is he not stage-frightened when talking to an angel?

Bonewatt then said: "Okay, you leave here."

"No problem." Bernardette looked very easy to talk to: "You hand over the monster with the 'Mystic' characteristics, and we'll leave."

Bonewatt was stunned for a moment: "Why should I do that?"

Not only was he confused, but Audis was also a little confused when he heard Bernardette's request.

Bernardette smiled and said: "We came here chasing that monster. It's our prey."

Audis slapped his forehead: This way of thinking is very unique, but I like it.

Bonewatt seemed to not react for a moment, and said after a second or two: "This is a ruin belonging to the Steam Church, there is no prey of yours."

I don't know why, he was clearly telling the truth, but because of Bernardette's previous words, Audis and Gadrilya felt that it was very far-fetched, even like sophistry.

Bernardette suddenly raised her chin, posing as a parent: "Bonewatt, I don't blame you for being loyal to the Steam Church that once betrayed your father. After all, you have grown up, and I respect your choice.

"But, what did I tell you when you were young? You can't be unreasonable just because you are a nobleman."

Bonewatt was stunned again, as if recalling some memories deep in his mind. Audis noticed that the way he looked at Bernardette suddenly changed.

It wasn't as indifferent as before.

But soon, this change stopped, and that look gradually became cold again: "Bernardette, you don't understand the mysteries of this world, and you don't know the course of that event back then."

Bernardette was somewhat disappointed: "I don't need you to tell me the course of the event, because the so-called truth you have is a tampered truth."

In the end, she said: "You are no longer Bonewatt."

Bonewatt's tone was no longer polite: "Since you are not leaving, I have to drive you away."

Bernardette did not show any weakness: "That depends on whether you have the ability."

While speaking, she gestured to Audis and Gadrilya, asking them to leave on their own.

Because their battle would definitely make this place very dangerous, and no one could say whether the 'God of Steam and Machinery' would descend?

Just as the two siblings were about to fight, a group of illusory lights suddenly emanated from the buildings some distance away from them, illuminating the huge underground structure.

Audis saw that at the top of this space, there was also a huge and complex magic formation composed of runes and graphics.

And those buildings in the distance, built relying on the terrain here, are very magnificent and tall. I don't know who activated this huge magic formation.

Audis grabbed Gadrilya and quickly used the ability of the 'Travel Ring' to leave here.

But as soon as the two entered the spirit world, Audis's vision was covered by light, and then he felt pulled by a force, separating him and Gadrilya, entering an unknown spirit world space, and quickly returning to the real world.

The strong light in front of Audis quickly faded away, and he found that he had appeared in an unfamiliar environment, and Gadrilya was gone.

The strong light just now made it difficult for Audis's eyes to adapt to the darkness here for a while. Because he couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly, Audis first used a 'Defense Scroll' and made a defensive posture.

A few seconds later, his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness here, and he found himself in an ancient hall. This hall was very tall, as if it were the residence of giants.

In the depths of the hall, there is a very beautiful altar, and two huge statues.

The symbol on the altar is still the Stiano family's family crest composed of hexagrams and geometric figures.

After seeing the symbol on the altar clearly, Audis realized that he had not left the underground space just now.

Then Audis guessed that he seemed to have appeared in the magnificent buildings he had just seen by mistake.

At this time, he recalled that the pulling force in the spirit world just now was likely the ability of a certain magic formation.

The specific ability is likely to be to pull the targets that have entered the spirit world within a certain range back to the real world.

If it were a year ago, Audis would have thought this magic formation was very magical, but in the past six months, he has entered ancient ruins many times and seen many more advanced magic formations, so he doesn't feel that any magic formation with unique abilities is special.

Then, Audis carefully checked the surroundings. After not noticing any danger, he walked forward to check the two statues.

The statues are of a man and a woman. They are beautiful and handsome. They are not wearing the asymmetrical costumes characteristic of the Fourth Epoch, but their clothing is a bit like the clothing of the Third Epoch.

They looked at the direction of the altar with gentle faces, like the eyes and expressions of elders seeing younger generations.

Audis guessed: Are these the two angels of the Stiano family?

He remembered that the 'God of Steam and Machinery' is biased towards the feminine, and has a nickname of 'Mechanical Girl', so who is this man?

Then he thought again: It is also possible that the 'God of Steam' is this male, because His full name seems to be called Yugs Stiano, which doesn't look like a woman's name.

Then the same question, who is this woman?

At this time, Audis suddenly thought of his messenger, but the messenger is just a skeleton. Except for her classical hunting suit, there is nothing to refer to.

After thinking for a while, Audis did not immediately summon the messenger to verify, because he was not sure of the other party's position.

If he needs help, Audis would rather pray to the 'Goddess of the Night'.

Then Audis saw that there were some exquisite murals behind the statues.

Generally, the murals in the sacrificial hall are about the information of the sacrificial object, so Audis bypassed the statues and went to see the murals.

First, in the middle of the mural, Odyss saw a familiar figure.

He floated in mid-air, his wide robes fluttering, possessing a charm and beauty reminiscent of Eastern depictions of immortals.

Odyss was almost certain that this was the person who appeared in that "underwater city" and spoke with "Calamity Queen" Coquina.

In this mural, His face was depicted as a string of characters, making it impossible to see what He actually looked like.

The entire mural depicted Him conversing with the figures sculpted on the two statues behind the altar.

Odyss, with his knowledge, knew that the murals in the sacrificial hall would contain descriptions of the origins of the sacrificial objects, or rather, their "roots."

Before the Fifth Epoch, the credibility of such murals was very high.

But in the Fifth Epoch, the "roots" of the Seven Gods directly became part of the "Original Creator."

This description was not wrong, after all, the origin of every Extraordinary being is in the "Original Creator."

The problem is that They skipped many intermediate steps. For example, when it comes to the "Goddess of the Night," there should actually be a mural of the "Destruction Demon Wolf."

However, in the corresponding murals of the Night Church during the Fourth Epoch, there was almost no trace of this ancient god.

Odyss continued to look down, the next mural depicted a towering cross, in front of the cross was a man with a peaceful face, looking forward with the purest and gentlest eyes.

This gaze was very penetrating, Odyss felt like He was looking at him, and this gaze made Odyss feel the urge to bow.

Odyss quickly averted his gaze to look at other parts of the mural, and the feeling of wanting to salute disappeared.

Another part of the mural was that the two angels of the Stiano family were bowing slightly towards this man.

Although there was no expression of the sun or anything like that behind the man, the towering cross was enough to prove that He was the "Ancient Sun God."

Odyss pinched his chin: I didn't expect the Stiano family to have once sided with the "Ancient Sun God."

The third mural was a bit abstract, depicting the female angel of the Stiano family embracing a towering cross.

Odyss frowned, this depiction was a bit ambiguous, it could be interpreted as this female angel being deeply trusted by the "Ancient Sun God," and the two had a close relationship.

It can also be interpreted as that they had an affair.

This made Odyss suddenly feel that this depiction was a bit nonsense, because the level of the "Ancient Sun God" could no longer be described by the gender of men and women.

He can be male or female, both man and woman.

The key is that His divinity should have made Him lose the desires belonging to humans.

Adam and Amon were both born by the "Ancient Sun God" alone, how could they be with the angels of the Stiano family?

If you really want to relive some human feelings, wouldn't it be better to find a "witch"?

Odyss smiled, wondering if this was the Stiano family clinging to the "Ancient Sun God"?

When it came to the fourth mural, Odyss was shocked. The main body of this mural was still the towering cross. The female angel of the Stiano family stood on one side of the cross, looking forward with a kind face.

And in front of her, there were two children, about seven or eight years old, who looked very cute, one with golden hair and golden pupils, and the other with black hair and crystal monocle on his eye socket.

Although the images of these two children were small and didn't look aggressive, Odyss was sure that this was Adam and Amon.

These two guys actually have a mother?

Odyss suddenly recalled that when he first met the messenger, He seemed to know many secrets about the "Ancient Sun God," and said that he had a certain connection with Adam and Amon.

This…

Odyss still found it a little difficult to accept, Adam and Amon actually have a mother?

Theoretically speaking, They don't need to have a mother. Why did the "Ancient Sun God" do something unnecessary?

However, the mural on the left ended like this. Odyss looked at the mural on the right. The second mural counted from that side was the same. It was also the two angels of the Stiano family saluting the "Ancient Sun God."

It was not until the third painting that things became different. What was depicted here was the existence with Eastern charm talking with the "Ancient Sun God" with the cross as the background.

And the male angel of the Stiano family stood behind the existence with Eastern charm, listening to their conversation.

This conversation must have exchanged very important information, or a very important meeting in the Extraordinary world. Just participating in this meeting was enough for this male angel to be proud of.

Or the content of this conversation, only the part heard by the male angel, was enough to change the development direction of the Stiano family.

Odyss became more and more curious about the existence with Eastern charm.

But after thinking about it, he couldn't recall any existence that could be associated with Him.

The one most likely to be related to Him is probably the "Hidden Sage," and Odyss remembers that the "God of Steam and Machinery" seemed to have been a member of the "Moses Ascetic Order."

Could it be that the "Hidden Sage" comes from… No!

Odyss also thought: It can basically be confirmed that the "Hidden Sage" is likely to be a god after the activation of the uniqueness, with the level of the King of Angels.

Could it be that His "bloodline awakened" when He was "activated"? Possess the image of an Easterner?

Thinking of this, he shook his head, feeling that he really didn't know how to guess.

Odyss continued to look down. The next two murals were scenes of this male angel leading his clan to fight.

In the two murals, his two opponents were "God of War" and "God of Knowledge and Wisdom."

After looking at it briefly, Odyss probably understood that this meant that he did not suffer losses when fighting the two gods respectively.

This is indeed a very glorious thing. Generally speaking, angels can only protect themselves when they encounter true gods. If they run a little slower, they will be seriously injured, and even affect their state for a long time in the future.

And this male angel not only withstood the opponent's attack in the two battles when facing the true god, but was not injured, which is enough for Him to "open a page in the family tree."

After watching for a while, Odyss couldn't tell when this battle happened. He guessed it might be a battle in the early Fourth Epoch.

Since the Stiano family once pledged allegiance to the "Ancient Sun God," then they must have stood on the side of the "True Creator" during the Solomon Empire era, and were likely to clash with the "Six Gods" at that time.

After reading these murals, Odyss had a new understanding of the Stiano family.

Originally, he thought that this family was just an ordinary angel family before the "God of Steam and Machinery" became a god, but today he realized that there are so many secrets in this family.

Or rather, every angel family must have had a glorious side.

Immediately afterwards, Odyss noticed one thing, the hall was surrounded by walls, with no exit.

However, after observing it slightly, he saw a magic circle directly opposite the two statues.

Generally speaking, if there is a door, it must be in this direction.

He quickly walked over, carefully observed it, confirmed the function of the magic circle, and then injected spirituality into the corresponding characters. Two illusory doors appeared in front of him.

Odyss pushed open the door, and outside was a dark corridor.

The left side of the corridor was a wall, and the right side had many rooms and many passages. The structure here seemed very complicated.

He came to a corridor and felt a gentle breeze blowing on his face. The end of the corridor seemed to be connected to the outside world.

So Odyss planned to walk along the corridor to see, but after taking two steps, his spirituality felt danger from nowhere.

This made Odyss immediately hide in a room with windows and several other exits, and then the ominous premonition became stronger, but Odyss still didn't know where the danger came from.

Odyss quietly hid under a window sill. He wasn't too nervous, because as long as he didn't appear in the other party's sight, even Bonova couldn't find him.

At this moment, he saw a faint, diamond-studded starlight suddenly appear in the corner.

Cattleya's figure appeared there, made a silencing gesture to Odyss, and nimbly approached Odyss.

Odyss twitched the corner of his mouth. He himself would not be discovered by the other party, but if he was with Cattleya, he would be easily discovered.

However, he couldn't remind her at this time, so he had to approach Cattleya as well. When the two met, the stardust in Cattleya's hand reappeared, and a thin layer of starlight-like fine gauze appeared in front of the two.

The gauze hid their tracks, and eventually even the gauze disappeared.

The source of the danger lingered around for a few minutes before leaving, but the two did not immediately talk, but waited for a minute or two before Cattleya whispered: "That's a monster with the characteristic of 'Scholar of Mysteries'!"

"While it's crazy, it seems to be very wise."

Odyss slowly nodded, he certainly knew that madmen are not fools, it's just that their thinking is a bit different.

At this time, Odyss's mind moved: "Did it activate the magic circle just now?"

Roughly speaking, no one has taken care of this place since the formation of the Rage Sea.

Just now, Odyssus noticed that this huge underground space only had many magic arrays on the top. Unlike "Underwater City," it didn't establish a space between the spirit world and the real world, so it wasn't very concealed.

That's why some extraordinary creatures were attracted here. Moreover, it has been raining outside, and the scouring of the rain may have caused this huge underground space to have many entrances that didn't exist more than a thousand years ago.

The monsters with the characteristic of "Mystic Scholar" and those extraordinary creatures should have all entered from there.

No matter what kind of monster it is, since it has a demigod-level characteristic in its body and its condition is still acceptable, its intelligence must be quite high.

Moreover, the characteristics of the "Seer" pathway have a certain strengthening effect on the brain and thinking. As long as the other party doesn't lose control on the spot, they will have extremely high intelligence.

Therefore, Odyssus had such a guess that the monster fully understood this place and found a way to activate that magic array.

Cattelya thought for a moment, first nodded, and then adjusted the glasses on her nose before saying, "But why would it activate the magic array?"

If it didn't activate the magic array, Bonova and Bernadette wouldn't have noticed it at least now. Activating the magic array is equivalent to exposing itself.

And it actually dares to search outside like this, isn't it afraid of encountering Bonova or Bernadette?

Odyssus thought for a while before replying, "Could it be that it doesn't know that 'Queen' and Bonova came here for different purposes?

"Perhaps it saw from afar that Bonova was talking to us, and thought that we had the same purpose, which was to hunt it down.

"As for it daring to wander outside, it should be because, based on its understanding of the magic array, 'Queen' and Bonova are unlikely to appear in the surrounding area at this time.

"Or simply, it wants to actively attack us two 'Middle Sequence' Beyonders."

Cattelya was stunned: "Why do you say that?"

"The reason is simple," Odyssus took a deep breath: "It is very clear that one of us needs the characteristics in its body. If both of us die,

"Then, is there a certain probability that 'Queen' and Bonova will leave?

Cattelya was somewhat surprised: "It can think of this step?"

Odyssus smiled and said: "I can think of it, why can't it think of it."

Although the "Seer" pathway doesn't seem to be related to cunning, wizards, professors, and scholars are all symbols of wisdom.

In Odyssus's view, wisdom and cunning are not much different in many cases.

The two of them fell silent for a moment. After a few seconds, Cattelya said: "Now we should find 'Queen' as soon as possible, or find a way to let 'Queen' find us.

"But the problem is, Bonova is likely to find us first, and we are also likely to encounter him first."

Odyssus thought to himself: In front of Bernadette, Cattelya looks like a child, but she is now indeed at the level of "Pirate Admiral," and immediately grasped the key point.

He smiled and said: "This problem is actually easy to solve."

Cattelya asked: "What are you going to do?"

"Pray to 'Queen'."

Cattelya smiled. She was laughing at herself for not realizing this.

"But the premise is that we have to figure out where we are now." Odyssus said: "While that monster has just left here, let's observe the surroundings immediately."

As long as they are within the range of prayer, the "Mysterious Queen" should be able to locate them, but for the sake of prudence, Odyssus still felt that they should observe the surrounding situation first in order to compare the guidance that the "Mysterious Queen" might give.

Cattelya nodded: "Okay."

The two quietly came to the corridor and walked towards the end.

The monster never appeared, and the two successfully came to the end of the corridor. There was indeed a window to the outside world here, but the outside of the window was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

Looking down or looking up, you can see the lower and upper layers of the ruins, but the line of sight is not far.

Originally, Odyssus thought that his eyesight was not good, but when he saw Cattelya looking at him, he knew that the other party had not seen anything either.

In order to avoid exposure, the two came to a crossroads room again to discuss countermeasures.

Odyssus first raised his question: "Why can't we see the scenery in the distance?"

Cattelya frowned, obviously she hadn't figured out this problem either.

The two of them thought for a few seconds each, and Odyssus said: "We can only pray to 'Queen' now and see if 'Queen' can find us based on our prayers."

Cattelya nodded and said "Hmm."

So Odyssus cleared his throat: "The Holy Spirit who pursues knowledge;

"The lighthouse of the mysterious world;

"The eye that peers into fate;

"The king on the sea;

"The holy Bernadette Gustav."

After only praying once, Odyssus felt as if his spirituality had suddenly been elevated. He raised his head, and some illusory figures appeared in the mid-air in front of him.

But then Odyssus felt something was wrong. When he prayed to Bernadette before, her figure was solid and sacred, but this time it seemed like "bad signal" and looked a little blurry.

"You have entered a special space." Before Odyssus could speak, Bernadette said: "That space seems to be in the spirit world, at least it is connected to the spirit world, so I can hear your prayers."

Odyssus suddenly remembered that after entering the spirit world just now, after that pulling feeling, he seemed to have entered a special space.

Later, when he returned to the real world, Odyssus thought it was an illusion, but he didn't expect that he really entered a strange space.

Odyssus asked: "Your Majesty Queen, how should we get out?"

"I haven't found the entrance yet. Bonova said that it is a space that has been blessed by the gods. If I can't find the correct way, I can't provide you with any help at all." Bernadette said:

"But the good news is that the entrance is controlled by a magic array."

"This is indeed good news." Odyssus took a deep breath and asked: "That monster with the characteristic of 'Mystic Scholar' is also in here. Why can it come in?"

Bernadette paused for a moment and said: "I guess that monster should have been produced in that space! Does it know how to enter and exit that space?"

Odyssus was stunned. He suspected that the monster might be a remnant of this ruin, right?

He pondered for a moment and then asked: "Bonova doesn't know how to get in either?"

"I don't know." Bernadette said: "He said that all the people inside before are dead, and all the information about everything inside has disappeared."

Odyssus frowned. This sounded very dangerous!

"I just made a 'prediction' for you." Bernadette added: "It's similar to the original prediction. There is danger, but it is not life-threatening.

"And the key to resolving the crisis is on you. Pay attention to observation, pay attention to thinking, perhaps the way to escape is not difficult."

Odyssus was slightly stunned: "I understand."

Bernadette's figure became more and more illusory, and finally disappeared completely.

Cattelya on the side asked: "Do you have any ideas?"

She could also hear what "Queen" said just now, and also knew that the key to resolving the crisis was on "Hermit."

She even thought that the "Hermit's" method was to ask "Fool" for help?

"Let me think about it." Odyssus did think about praying to Klein and asking for the help of "Fool," after all, he is the "Controller of the Spirit World," and currently Odyssus and Cattelya are likely to be in the spirit world.

But then he thought that Klein's recovered power was limited at this time, so it would be better to find a messenger to help.

But in the end, Odyssus decided: "Let's find an exit first."

If he finds the corresponding magic array, he is absolutely sure that he can get out of here. With the mentality of "It is better to ask for yourself than to ask for others," he decided to work hard to find an exit first, and then ask for help if he encounters danger.

Cattelya didn't have any objections to this: "Okay."

However, Odyssus did not set off immediately, but first analyzed: "Generally, this kind of entrance will be on the lowest or highest floor. If that monster often enters and exits here, it must leave some clues.

"Let's go to the lowest floor first and take a look. You also pay attention to helping me observe.

"Although 'Queen's' 'prediction' says that the key to resolving the crisis is on me, it is also possible that you found the clues, and I was inspired to think of a way."

Cattelya said "Hmm": "You don't need to explain so clearly."

Odyssus was stunned for a moment before realizing that his crew members, except for Bivis and Noi, lacked sufficient knowledge of mysticism, so he had become accustomed to explaining things clearly.

But Cattelya is more knowledgeable than Bivis and Noi, so there is no need to explain so clearly.

After the two made some preparations, they searched in the corridor of the ruins and soon found the stairs, so they went down to the bottom floor in one breath.

As soon as they arrived on this floor, Odyssus and Cattelya saw five corpses lying neatly side by side on the corridor.

Perhaps it was the special environment here that prevented them from completely rotting, but instead turned them into mummified corpses with facial features that had dried and blurred.

Odyssus approached cautiously, confirmed that they no longer posed any danger, and quietly came to the corridor.

As a result, he saw a scene that made his scalp tingle. The entire corridor was filled with mummified corpses lying neatly side by side on the ground.

Each row consisted of five corpses, arranged meticulously as if they had lined up in formation before collapsing together.

Recalling Bernadette's warning, "Everyone in this space is dead," Odyss suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He seemed to see a dangerous event that had once occurred here, where everyone, after death, had come to this level and lined up neatly, time passing, and they slowly dried up.

Or perhaps they came to this level after being severely injured, lying quietly on the ground, silently waiting for their lives to ebb away and finally die.

Either way, it seemed quite eerie.

Odyss and Cattleya remained silent for a dozen seconds before Cattleya said, "That monster rarely comes here."

If it came often, the dried corpses here would not be so neatly arranged.

Odyss agreed, "Let's go up and take a look."

So the two returned the way they came, tacitly avoiding discussing the eerie scene they had just witnessed.

If the danger here was truly that great, discussing it would be useless.

Moreover, to them, that monster was a greater threat than the danger here.

Or rather, both understood a very simple truth: don't waste energy on speculation beyond your ability to influence or without solid evidence.

Having ascended only two levels, the sense of threat from the monster reappeared.

Odyss and Cattleya quickly entered the corridor on this level, hiding in a room with multiple exits.

They held their breath, sensing the approaching danger, and after a few seconds, they suddenly realized that the source of the danger had stopped in the corridor outside their hiding place.

They've been discovered!

Almost simultaneously, the two "old foxes" had this thought, and then, without any communication, they immediately ran towards the nearest door.

At this time, there could be no侥幸 (jiǎoxìng:僥倖) [chance/luck] psychology; since the opponent had stopped, it meant they had at least found a clue.

Behind that door was a narrow corridor.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak ~"

The sudden appearance of the two startled several rats, which scattered and fled, squealing.

Odyss and Cattleya frowned, because this narrow corridor was very dirty and messy, with many animal bones and a lot of rat droppings.

The bones were all that remained, as if this was where the monster ate, and the rats living here followed behind to eat some "leftovers."

There were only two doors on this corridor, so they could only continue forward along the corridor.

Odyss immediately used a "Flight Scroll," and the "Star Sand" in Cattleya's hand reappeared, and the two of them flew up, passing through the corridor in mid-air.

The sense of danger followed closely behind, obviously the monster had caught up.

However, Odyss was a little strange, why was the opponent's movement so slow?

Theoretically, a Sequence 4, if willing, should be able to catch up with a Sequence 6 and a Sequence 5 immediately.

But now there was no time to worry about so much, Odyss and Cattleya flew out of the other door at their fastest speed.

There was another wide corridor, but this corridor seemed to have been the site of frequent battles between large groups of beasts, the walls were covered with deep claw marks, and there were some broken beast corpses on the ground.

Flying forward for another distance, Odyss and Cattleya noticed a faint light at the corner ahead.

The instant they saw the light, they were both attracted to it, feeling that the things emitting the light were what they most anticipated and hoped to obtain.

At this moment, Odyss felt a trance, slowly landed on the ground, and slowly walked towards the room with the light.

Even though the sense of crisis behind them was constantly approaching, the two of them remained indifferent, still walking very slowly.

Odyss's mind realized the danger and wanted to try to save himself, but he seemed completely out of control, and a force repeatedly interrupted his thoughts.

At the critical moment, he suddenly recalled Klein's several self-rescue methods, and quickly tried to "meditate" to enter the "Knowledge Moor."

Originally, he thought his "meditation" would be interrupted, but unexpectedly, he easily entered the "Knowledge Moor." Returning to the real world, Odyss, briefly awake, immediately took out a scroll flashing with black light: "Mental Shock!"

This was one of the three scrolls he had just developed using the "Stone of Iron Law." A mental shock exploded around them, and Odyss and Cattleya both suffered some degree of mental damage, but they also broke free from the previous state.

Odyss immediately said in Ancient Hermes: "I!

"In my name, I summon:

"The spirit wandering in falsehood, the messenger belonging solely to Odyss Geer."

This was a request for help after careful consideration. In this emergency, "The Fool" and "The Goddess of the Night" might not notice it immediately and would not respond immediately.

The space in front of them became illusory, and a skeleton wearing hunting clothes appeared in front of Odyss.
