Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 55: Chapter 55: [White Church] The soldiers are divided into two groups

Since Angie and Hadford fell into the bottomless underground space, Rabin, who was lucky enough to hold on to the edge of the collapse without falling, looked at the big hole under him, and his heart was covered with cold sweat.

It doesn't matter whether Hadford lives or dies, but Angie, the little guy, doesn't have enough patience. Even if he survives by luck, he can only stay in this foreign land for two days at most.

She must be rescued as soon as possible.

Rabin climbed back to the ground with his own strength. At the same time, Pedra and Arnold who were still in the church hall had already rushed over.

Facing the cave below, the two of them anxiously shouted Angie's name, but only heard a faint roaring echo, as if someone had been yelling something emotionally and loudly.

Angie's character is not so violent.Obviously, Hadford, who fell with her, was mad.

This kind of situation made the three people present more and more anxious—if this young girl unfortunately fell into the hands of the ruthless Hadford, what would happen?

"Leader, I'll go down to find her!"

While speaking, Pedra rushed towards the tunnel that Arnold discovered, but was stopped by Rabin in the next second:

"Hey, my old man, don't worry! Let me do this!"

While Rabin said this, he quickly dragged the other party behind him, pointed to him at the wide spiral staircase on both sides of the church, and continued: "You and Arnold explore up the stairs and try to find our' Body' and bring it back! The two people who fell, I will take care of it!"

Pedra wanted to say something more, opened his mouth anxiously, and calmed down instantly.

He knew Rabin was protecting them.After all, I don't know what's going on below the church. From the current point of view, it is obvious that the interior of the church with a better view and a bright and spacious interior is safer.

Moreover, even if his "bad guy" is still out of shape, among the people present, only Rabin can suppress him.

Thinking of this, Pedra hurriedly replied "Yes", and then led Arnold to run upstairs together.

Seeing that they didn't encounter the "suddenly cracked floor tiles" again, Rabin hurried down the stone steps to the ground.

For him with a strong figure, both the stone steps and the size of the entrance seemed too narrow, so that Rabin even had to turn his body sideways to walk down.

However, as he quickly walked down a few steps, the space below the stone steps suddenly widened.

It's just that this seemingly vast space is actually completely pitch black, like a boundless abyss of darkness.

Rabin quickly took out the eternal candle in his pocket.Its light and steady candle light illuminated the narrow path under his feet, and at the same time reminded him of an interesting thing.

Although these black candles will not go out, they can be easily lost.

Before every knight set off to a foreign land, he would always walk a few on the stone wall of the tower.

And when they returned to the castle and counted the number of candles, they always found that one or two were missing.

Over time, the number of eternal candles in the castle became less and less, so that Lord Slade had to give an order: whoever loses the candles must go to the "Realm of Eternal Darkness" and bring back a corresponding number of candles, otherwise he will be killed. Pay a fine at the expensive price of 1 gold coin = 1 candle.

"Area of ​​Eternal Darkness" is a level [-] foreign land, so most people will choose to pay the fine obediently after losing a candle.

No one would dare to take candles out because they were reluctant to part with the money, right?
Thinking of this, Rabin smiled slightly, then immediately restrained these complicated thoughts and walked down.

Before taking two steps, the middle-aged man suddenly stopped, frowned and said to himself:
"Huh? Am I usually this heavy?"

----------------------

At this time, Arnold and Pedra had already passed the marble spiral staircase to the second floor of the church.

The second floor of this church only has a narrow corridor at the very edge. You only need to stand on the edge of the corridor and look down to get a panoramic view of the hall.

When you look up, you can see that above the corridor on this floor, there are two similar corridors.

That being the case, what they have to do is very clear: explore all the things in these three corridors!
After thinking clearly, Pedra glanced at the entrance of the church again.Now this place is completely open to the outside world, no matter who comes here, they can enter and exit freely.

There is at least one Marta in Gelan Village, so we have to guard against it.

"Arnold, help me keep an eye on the situation in the hall. If you see any suspicious figures, report to me immediately!"

"As ordered!"

Arnold immediately straightened his back and replied respectfully.He has absolute respect for the former deputy head, because the other party not only has strong strength, but also takes good care of everyone in the knight order, just like an old father who is "hard-spoken and soft-hearted".

However, leaving aside the two corridors above, there are eight large rooms in the corridor where the two of them are alone, and Arnold has to stay in the corridor to let the air out.For a while, the burden on Pedra became heavier.

He hurried into the first room, his eyes quickly swept across the room.The bright and tidy interior only has a large round wooden table and a few small stools, a huge glass window, wooden shutters that open inward, and a dark brown bookshelf in the corner.

He walked to the window and looked beyond the meshed metal grille outside it to look further away.

It's just a white world outside.There is no sun, no black mist, and no villages, as if the church is on the clouds and shrouded in a faint white mist, isolated from the world.

Not finding any useful clues, Pedra quickly looked away and walked towards the bookshelf in the corner.These three bookshelves add up to only ten books in total, and they are not neatly placed, looking sparse.

However, in this era when books can only be written by hand, each manuscript is extremely precious, and can only be seen in legendary cathedrals or libraries.

In this ordinary room alone, there are so many manuscripts, without any protective measures, just placed so casually, which shocked Pedra very much.

But almost in the next second, Pedra himself denied this idea.No matter how ordinary this place looks, it is just a weird place full of curses, let alone look at things here with common sense.

According to past experience, there is a high probability that "complex methods" will be needed to crack such a complex intermediate foreign land.

And in these seemingly ordinary gadgets, there are likely to be some clues about the "foreign land cracking method".

Thinking of this, Pedra glanced over those books, and then stopped on a very delicate manuscript.Its four corners are bound with bronze-colored metal edges, and in the center is a delicate and intricate engraving.

When Pedra took it out, the statue on it reflected a slightly dazzling golden light, so that after he squinted his eyes to observe carefully, he saw that there were several angels with wings engraved on it.

He sighed, and put the book casually back on the shelf, not looking at its contents anymore - because Lord Slade did not allow them to read such books in private.

That's not to say Slade doesn't like books.Instead, she was intrigued by the manuscripts.

But this interest is only for some of the "interesting" books.

And those manuscripts related to religion or theology would be thrown into the stove by her with a look of disgust—such as the one Pedra just put back.

Since the cataclysm 300 years ago, religion has been banned in Gloskland.In fact, all the lords known to Pedra do not like their people to believe in any "god" or "God".

After all, in the eyes of people who rely on barriers to survive, what can be higher than their lords?
The saviors that have been passed down in ancient legends cannot protect the present people.

After avoiding those books with strong religious overtones, Pedra picked out one of the simplest and most inconspicuous yellowed books.

He gently opened the leather buckle on the side and opened the first page.On the slightly old kraft paper, the first line is clearly bolded, neat and beautiful handwriting:
Blood and soul.

After only reading these few words, Pedra's eyes hurriedly looked down, skimming over the complicated and redundant academic terms, flipped through a few pages, and then fixed his gaze on a page with an egg painting.

These colorful color blocks and intricate hook lines are mixed together, so that Pedra frowned, moved his eyes forward, and could barely make out the outlines of those similar "human figures".

Among them, the most conspicuous is the one at the top of the picture, wearing a gorgeous robe and a strangely shaped hat.He is standing at the highest point, holding an open book in his left hand, and raising his right hand high, as if he is declaring something.

Directly below this person, there is a person kneeling on the ground whose whole body is tightly bound by iron chains.He seems to have been seriously injured, and there is still a large pool of bright red liquid under his body.

And those people who surrounded him had more or less happy smiles on their faces.They held cups of different shapes in their hands, all filled with bright red liquid.

This kind of scene seems to be gathering people to share the blood of that person...

Pedra quickly closed the book, which was like a black fairy tale, and let out a deep breath.

With his "literary literacy", it is almost impossible to understand these broken books, but the egg paintings in the books still look so ghostly, which makes him extremely uncomfortable.

Pedra felt that there were probably no clues in these torn books, so she turned around and was about to walk out, but stopped inexplicably.

After thinking about it, this rigorous middle-aged knight still chose to trust his intuition, put the "Dark Fairy Tale" in his arms, and then hurried to another room to investigate.

　I want to discuss something with you... Actually, I want to move the daily update time to the daytime, because I have some reference pictures that I want to put in the book review.

　　At midnight every day, as long as it’s not a weekend or insomnia, I must have fallen asleep (after all, I have to go to work the next day),
　　As a result, I can only add those pictures slowly during the day the next day.

　　In this chapter, I will post reference pictures of manuscripts, egg paintings, and glass windows later.In fact, you can also find it on Baidu. It’s not something expensive, but I just want to help you read it, so that you can make the sense of substitution a little deeper~
　　—————Boundary————

　　Telling the story in chronological order will make the whole story clearer.

　　So I moved rock climbing to the next chapter~
　　Starting from Thursday, this "Using Foreign Lands to Raid the Whole Europe" will be listed on the Qidian app and the new book recommendation on the homepage of the female channel, and will continue until next Thursday.

　　How should I put it, it seems to be a bit incompatible with the painting style on the homepage hhh
　　Interested friends can go to watch~
　　Hope to take this opportunity to gain more friends!

　　————Thank you—————
