Dorothy's Forbidden Tome

"Since this is the case... then let's deal with you first, and then go down."

Dorothy murmured, then took out her own magic box, expanded the exit, controlled three of the human corpse puppets to climb out with the corpse puppet ring, and then let them walk forward, ambush at the entrance of the torture field with.

Then, Dorothy took out a few more things from the magic box, a black candle, a talisman, and a carved stone coin.

After putting away the magic box, Dorothy moved a little closer to the torture field, then she picked up a black candle and injected 1 point of "shadow" into it, causing it to ignite a faint black flame. The extraordinary item obtained in the hands of Er, extinguish the black candle.

Dorothy blew out the extinguished black candle, and suddenly, all the lights in the corridors around her were extinguished, along with the lights in the torture field that were not much on.

All of a sudden, pure darkness descended on this piece of underground space, and everyone's eyes were plunged into the pitch blackness that could not be seen.

This is the advantage of the underground space. Without the influence of moonlight, a pure black environment can be achieved by turning off the light source, unlike the last time Dorothy turned off the lights in St. Amanda Church and had to nail the windows in advance.

"What! Why is it suddenly dark?!"

"Why is the light off! It's so dark."

"Hurry up and find the lamp and turn it on again!"

The sudden darkness caused chaos in the torture field. Facing the sudden darkness, the guards who stayed behind were flustered. They got up one after another to look for the lights around them in an attempt to relight them. However, it was difficult to move in the pure darkness. Incomparably, many people were stumbled by the surrounding obstacles, and many prisoners were also startled by the darkness, looking around in their own cells in a hurry, and some insane prisoners screamed in a panic in the darkness.

At this time, Dorothy wrapped the stone coin with the sigil she took out earlier, and then pressed it on the ground, then she closed her eyes and started to activate the sigil.

"Listen to the sigil..."

During the Battle of the Church, the sigil seized by Dorothy from the men of the deer skull was activated by a "stone" spiritual storage. Suddenly, Dorothy used the earth as a medium to accurately feel the Seeing the vibrations from all around, through these vibrations, she locked on to all the moving targets in the torture field, whether they were guards or prisoners, without vision.

Dorothy had used the memory ability of the knower to record the position coordinates of all the prisoners and guards in advance. After the moment when the lights were turned off, she recorded the position of each vibration and the position of everyone before the lights were turned off. Comparing the information processing abilities of those who are familiar with each other, it is easy to distinguish those vibrations as prisoners and those vibrations as guards.

Then, Dorothy ordered the three corpse puppets ambushing at the door to attack at the same time. Holding cold weapons such as daggers and short knives, they quickly approached the source of vibration of the guards in the darkness.

Soon, the first scream sounded in the darkness.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

On the ground floor of the King's Campus, in the torture field of the Nest of Eight Points.

The sudden darkness plunged the torture field into chaos. The prisoners were screaming and the guards were in a hurry. It is extremely difficult in the dark environment.

Finally, with great difficulty, another guard took out the match used to light cigarettes from his body. After fumbling to strike it, the faint light finally lit up in the dark environment. Just as this guard was about to rely on When he lit the other gas lamps with the faint light of this match, he suddenly found that the faint light illuminated the indifferent face of a strange man in front of his eyes.

"who is it!"

Before the man opened his mouth to say anything more, his body was pierced by a sharp blade, and he collapsed after screaming. The only light that had just been turned on was instantly extinguished, and the entire space was once again in darkness. middle.

After the first scream, the second and third screams came one after another, and Dorothy's corpse turned into an assassin in the darkness, killing the guards who were helpless in the darkness one by one. Stabbed at close quarters, the shock they created in their panic betrayed their position.

With the sound of screams one after another, the number of guards decreased rapidly, and in the end there were only two invisible men left. Although the two of them could not see in the dark environment, they relied on With their keen sense of hearing and movement, they escaped the assassination of the corpse puppets again and again, and even counterattacked and cut off the head of a corpse puppet.

For the two hidden people, Dorothy directly controlled the puppet in the darkness to draw the gun, and shot continuously at the vibration source from a distance.

The fact that the invisible people can dodge the bullets doesn't mean that they are really faster than the bullets, it's just that when they realize that there is a gun pointed at them, they start to dodge before the gunman shoots.

And in this dark environment, it was already very difficult for these two invisible men to evade the assassination from close by. Their eyes were darkened and they couldn't see anything. Naturally, they would not notice that there was a gun pointed at them, so When the guns were fired at them, they had no chance to dodge.

Continuous gunshots rang through the narrow darkness, and the muzzle flame became the only light flickering in the darkness. When the gunfire subsided, the last two hidden people had fallen down. In the dark torture field, only The exclamation of the prisoners remained.

After solving all the guards, Dorothy controlled a corpse puppet and took out a gas lamp prepared in advance to light it up, and then used the light of this gas lamp to light up the other gas lamps around again, and the entire torture field was in full swing. This returns to the light again.

When the light returned, those prisoners who were trapped in the cell with scars all over their bodies cried out in fright when they saw countless corpses lying on the ground. Two bloody men standing, two corpse puppets of Dorothy.

"Don't be impatient, gentlemen, we have no intention of harming you, on the contrary, we can save you."

Looking at the panicked prisoners and slaves in front of him, the corpse puppet Brandon pressed the brim of his hat with his blood-stained hands and continued.

Brandon's words made the prisoners stunned for a moment, and at this moment, another corpse puppet found the key from the guard who fell to the ground, and then he began to open the keys one by one. The door of the prison cell released all the wounded prisoners in one breath.

After regaining their freedom, the slaves finally reacted and cheered. Many of them gathered in front of Brandon, and some of them said gratefully.

"Oh... Holy Mother, I thought I would be tortured to death by those guys. Thank you so much, you must be angels sent by the Holy Mother! Angels who specialize in saving us from these demons! What should I call you?"

Looking at the agitated prisoners in front of him, Brandon the corpse puppet lit a cigarette with his blood-stained hand, and answered with a smile after taking a sip.

"Rosicrucifix...you just need to know this term.

"Go back, prisoners, this road leads to the exit, to your freedom."

After Brandon finished speaking, he pointed to the exit passage not far away, and then he saw these scarred prisoners walking towards the exit with each other's support after kowtowing in gratitude. Not left, after they were all gone, Dorothy stood up from a bunker at the entrance of the torture field and looked towards the empty torture field in front of her.

Release these prisoners, Dorothy is not worried that they will trigger the alarm when they pass the spider silk corridor, because Dorothy has killed all the people who can accept the spider silk warning now.

After Nephness successfully obtained the qualification to enter the inner zone, she obtained general information about the spider silk corridor from Eli. After this spider silk corridor felt abnormal contact, it would send an alarm silently. To the surroundings, the brains of the Extraordinary belonging to the eight-pointed nest.

This is why it is clear that the thorns are entangled by the hunters in the distance, but Dorothy still needs to let Nephness carry her in, because there must be Extraordinary left behind in the inner area, so she cannot Trigger an alarm.

And now, the two apprentice-level Beyonders who stayed in the inner area had been killed by Dorothy, so she no longer had to worry about the spider web.

After releasing the prisoners, Dorothy began to quickly clean up the battlefield. She said that all the corpses of the guards were controlled and stored in the magic box, which was sufficient for the reserve of corpses, and then continued to look and explore.

This time, Dorothy left a small corpse puppet to monitor the torture site, and then let another small corpse puppet lead the way in front, followed by herself, and continued to go deep into the ruins from the stairs of the torture site.

Carrying a gas lamp, Dorothy walked all the way down, and soon came to a new floor under the torture field. This floor was also an empty space about the same size as the torture field. There was no one, but then with a faint light, Dorothy saw what seemed to be a huge blurry silhouette inside.

'Looks like there's something? '

Thinking in this way, Dorothy came to the side of the stone pillar at the edge of the underground space, searched a little, and found the gas lamp hanging on it, and after trying it, she found that it could be lit.

"The gas lamps that can still be used have only been installed not long ago... This proves that those guys are also active on this floor..."

Dorothy thought of this, and then she began to light other gas lamps on this floor. After several lights were slowly lit, the scene of this floor gradually appeared in front of Dorothy's eyes.

Then, she froze immediately.

Unlike the torture field on the previous floor, this floor seems to be a ruined altar.

The altar, which was built in an unknown age, has long been dilapidated, and all the sacrificial vessels and ritual vessels have disappeared, leaving only the incomplete raised platform, cracked stone steps, and vague carvings, and the most conspicuous of the entire altar remains , is on the high platform, in the center of the broken altar, stands a statue of a god.

This statue seems to be a young goddess with a slender figure. She is wearing a simple, long and thin dress, holding a round mirror with her hands on her chest.

If you only look at the body parts, this is a dignified and beautiful statue of a goddess. However, it is such a statue of a goddess that can be called a fine handicraft, but its head was cut off and replaced with a statue with multiple eyes and a sickle. Fangs, the head of the hideous spider.

Looking at the stone statue in front of her, Dorothy stood there with her eyes wide open. She had never seen such a scene before.

Not long ago, on the train that Dorothy came to Tivian, among the goods delivered to Tivian by Sododd who belonged to the Ulster Ann Hidden Bureau that was intercepted halfway, there were A photo, according to the scene that is almost exactly the same as the one in front of me, is also a statue of a goddess whose head has been cut off and replaced with a spider.

'Interesting... There is one in the Razor Mountains, and another one so far away. What kind of god is this?Why are there different places in Priet?And one of them also appeared in the ruins of the Xingshu Xiushu Society. Could it be that this god has something to do with Xingshu Xiushu? '

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Looking at the goddess statue in front of her, Dorothy thought in her heart, and at the same time began to carefully observe the specific details of the goddess statue, she first focused her eyes on its head.

'The fracture of the head seems to be very new, and it is very different from the broken parts in other places. It should have been done recently, and the material used for this spider head sculpture is obviously different from the material of the goddess statue's body. The two are clearly Not one.

'So, this goddess statue and the spider head sculpture should be two different works, but they were forcibly put together. The head of the goddess statue was cut off and replaced with this spider head, and this should be the latest It is very likely that the eight-pointed nest did what happened not long ago. '

While observing, Dorothy analyzed, and suddenly, she had a clue as to why the Nest of Eight Points wanted to control the ruins.

"The Corrupted Secret Knowledge Society of the Nest of the Eight Points, used the Secret Knowledge Society to move around the school conveniently, in order to find the entrance to the ruins. Its main purpose is probably the altar hidden in the ruins.

'They cut off the head of the goddess and replaced it with a spider. They don't know what it means, and as far as the current situation is concerned, the weird situation in the Razor Mountains may have something to do with them. '

Dorothy thought so, and now she doubts whether there is any connection between the statue of the Goddess and the Astrology Society, so she keeps holding the lamp and looks around the statue, carefully observing and trying to see what is there. clues.

'The style of this altar... seems to be a bit similar to the style of the church of the Radiance Cult. Does this statue have something to do with the Radiance Cult?Could it be that she is a statue of the Madonna?

'No, I have seen a lot of portraits and statues of the Virgin Mary, and they are generally plump images of mature women. Although this statue only has a body part, its body is indeed slender, especially compared with the statue of the Virgin Mary. The gap is too obvious, and the overall appearance is more girlish, and the statues and paintings of life generally don't use things like mirrors. This may be a goddess in the image of a girl. '

Dorothy continued to analyze the god statue in front of her, and when she looked around carefully, she found some abnormalities on the side wall.

On that wall, on the mottled wall, there was a place where a piece of black cloth was hung very abruptly. Looking around, there was no such extra thing hanging on the walls in other places.

'Piece of cloth? '

Looking at the piece of cloth, Dorothy was puzzled, then took out the magic box and summoned a human corpse puppet, and asked him to go forward to inspect the black cloth.

'Something new, it looks like those guys just put it up, is it trying to cover something? '

Thinking this way, Dorothy controlled the puppet and slowly lifted the cloth.

Then, what appeared before Dorothy's eyes was a cracked brick wall. At one corner of the brick wall, there was a small area of ​​masonry that was damaged and peeled off, exposing the second layer of wall that was covered up later. Behind the masonry wall, there are staggered characters engraved.

'Is there something behind this brick wall?Was the brick wall erected after the fact to conceal what was carved on the real wall? '

Seeing this scene, Dorothy's eyes lit up, and then she controlled the puppet to tear off the black cloth, and began to slowly remove the loose bricks and stones. Soon, many of these bricks and stones were removed, and it was covered The inscribed characters on the wall also gradually appeared.

Those were two paragraphs of words engraved in different scripts, and they had a contrasting translation relationship with each other. One of them was Pulitzer, while the other Dorothy found that she unexpectedly recognized it. It was Imperial!

When dealing with the deer skull, Dorothy once got an imperial language translation from Aldrich, and that translation was also in the imperial language. The original translation was all written in praise of a man named "The God of Light". The poem of the king of "King", praising his great achievements in uniting his allies, expelling evil gods and demons, and establishing an empire.

And now, the writing on the wall is actually in the same imperial language as the poem. The author of the poem "Lord of Light" and the author of the writing on the wall may have something in common.

Next, Dorothy began to look carefully at the stone carvings on the wall. Fortunately, it seems that some descendants carved the comparison translation in Pulitzer aside so that Dorothy could understand it.

After a brief glance, Dorothy saw that it was a farewell speech.

……

"It's over, all the shrines and churches on the island have been closed and taken over.

"Whether it's open or hidden. Whether it's in a town or in the wilderness. Even this one built in an ancient ruins for training and meditation is no exception...

"According to the agreement, the belief of the goddess will be completely withdrawn from the three islands. If we want to continue to follow the goddess, we can only leave our hometown and go to the east.

"I don't want to give up here, this is my hometown, but for the sake of the goddess, I must give up everything, I have already made an oath to Jingyue.

"People of Pritnia, please don't panic. Although our servants of the goddess will go away, the blessing of the goddess will always remain in this land."

……

North of King's Campus, North Pine Forest Farm.

Among the numbers in the night, the brutal and bloody fight was coming to an end at this time, and the team of Thorn and Amin was not a match for the well-prepared hunters at all, and under the situation of being perfectly ambushed, their collapse speed was very fast.

Soon, Thorn's subordinates were wiped out, and his colleague Amin was also beheaded by the wind blade in the battle between the hunter captain and died, and he himself was injured.

At this moment, Thorny Velvet dragged his wounded body and galloped through the dark woods. At this moment, he was already alone and was trying his best to escape forward, while the team of hunters was chasing after him. .

The hunters, led by the captain, were chasing their prey, one after another black extreme shadows flashed across the forest, and the fleeing figure in the distance was getting closer and closer.

Thorn is the Extraordinary of the "shadow" of the black rank, and it is reasonable to say that he has a good speed, but this speed is being dragged down by his injuries at the moment, and he cannot exert his full strength.

"Huh...huh...damn...the black dogs..."

Feeling the sound of hurried footsteps getting closer and closer, Surong could only clenched his teeth helplessly and accelerated desperately, but there was no way to open the distance.

A hunter's captain ran at the front of the team with several team members. Looking at the approaching prey in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth behind the mask, and he also clenched a small stone knife.

Just as the captain, who was born as a wind spell user, was about to use the wind blade to knock down the prey in front of him, there was suddenly a very fine and dense sound in the dark woods, followed by a rustling sound. In the middle, a large black shadow suddenly appeared from the forest, the hunters in the front team.

It was a large group of bats with fangs, pointed ears, and flapping wings!

"Get out of the way!"

The leading captain immediately reminded the team members around him to shout, and then he also waved the stone knife in his hand, and a strong wind blew away many bats that hit, creating an environment for the team members to dodge.

However, there were still three hunters who were caught off guard by swarms of bats and were instantly engulfed by swarms of bats. They were wrapped in black, fell to the ground and struggled, screaming in pain.

"Ahhhh!!!"

After only five or six seconds, the struggle of the team members stopped, and the bats wrapped around them flew away one after another, leaving behind only three corpses full of blood holes, and then all of them flew collectively towards a direction.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, these tiny bats gathered together, forming a human form in an instant.

When the bat disappeared, a tall and thin man in a black suit, with bald head and pointed ears, pale skin, black smoked eye circles, and raised cheekbones stood on the ground, with his hands behind his back, and his scarlet eyes were indifferent Scanning the environment in front of him.

"Your Excellency Claudius!"

Seeing the man had to appear, Thorn let out a burst of joy, while the leader of the hunter clenched his fists solemnly.

"The chalky... vampire..."

……

Today is still [-] in [-], the time has fluctuated a bit in recent days, please forgive me.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

King's Crown University, underground of the King's Campus.

Among the ruins, Dorothy was still looking at the message in Imperial language hidden on the wall in front of her, and she couldn't help but fell into deep thought while looking at the content above.

'This inscription...was left by the clergy who originally worshiped this statue. According to him, this goddess once had a very wide range of beliefs in the three islands of Priet, but because of some unknown 'agreement' , the belief of this goddess must withdraw from Priet, and if his priests want to continue to follow her, they must leave their hometown and go to the East.

'If it is true that her faith spread throughout Priet as stated in this message, then it would make sense that her idols would appear in the remote Razor Mountains and Tivian. There are probably her relics within the range of Tesan Island. '
