908 Altar of Dry Bones
With a creaking sound, the wooden door was pulled open by Lin Chi, and a large amount of dust rushed towards him. At the same time, there was also a breath of death that was common in the ancient tomb.
The faint light of the candlestick in Lin Chi's hand shone with the air in front of him, and the yellow particles floated in front of him, covering the picture in his sight with a layer of noise effect.
He walked into the basement in silence, and a crackling sound rang out under his feet.
The house was filled with yellow human bones. Among the messy bones, dozens of skulls were placed on the floor to form a circle. In the middle of the circle, a statue made of human bones stood.
The statue made of bones can be vaguely seen in the outline of the body. The two bone claws clasped the handles of the knife connected by leg bones, and the blades of the two scimitars in their hands were cast from metal and had begun to rust.
It seems that this is the "god" believed by the residents of the Immortal Zone!
Lin Chi was about to speak when an extremely low voice had already sounded in the basement:
"Corpsy, you went to the wrong place..."
The sound has an ultra-heavy bass effect, which causes Lin Chi's body to have a short-term "resonance", similar to the infrasonic weapons used by the burning mechanism in the capital of Hell, which is enough to cause serious damage to the body of ordinary people.
However, Lin Chi, who was originally a corpse, was immune to this attack. He looked up at the body of the human bone statue and asked, "Who are you?"
The other party did not answer this question, but continued to say in a murderous voice: "Leave here, you shouldn't be here..."
"I'm here to discuss business." Lin Chi smiled.
Although I don’t know where the monsters here come from, I should be able to exchange the souls on the altar here. Lin Chi is still very interested in the trading methods here.
Each god's altar has different trading rules. Even this terrifying god should have what he wants.
But this time, things didn't seem that simple.
"Get out of here!"
The statue made a deafening roar, and a strange blue light suddenly lit up in the eye sockets of the several skulls hanging on it, and the two swords in the two bone claws began to tremble.
"Okay, I'll leave now..." Lin Chi said, turning around and leaving the basement, and not forgetting to turn around and take it to the door with me considerately.
The god seemed very angry, and it would be even harder to communicate with the altar of Samar. If he continued to stay there, even if he was not killed by the altar, the guards who heard the sound would come to him.
Fortunately, the loud noise just now was just a sound transmission from the altar, not a direct sound. Lin Chi leaned over to the window and pulled up a corner of the curtain and looked out. The guards were still patrolling normally and did not notice any changes in the house.
It seems that if you want to find clues, you should start from other places in the house.
Back in front of the coffee table in the living room, I picked up two large books on the table, and Lin Chi opened the book "The Origin of Dark Magic" and prepared to start reading until the end of this game.
In order to save time, he certainly did not start reading from scratch, but directly opened the directory and found the part with the title "Corpsy and White Bone Sacrifice" and read the contents.
The skull surrounded by the altar underground looked like some kind of summoning ceremony. If you can find information about this, you may be able to figure out the true body of the god.
After turning on the yellowed pages and looking up, Lin Chi quickly found what he needed:
"In the records of heretic myths, a dry bone is responsible for protecting the bridge leading to the underworld. Those who want to cross the bridge need to offer blood to it... By donating blood and skulls, the guards can be called here."
——Is this guy the gatekeeper of the underworld?
Realizing this, Lin Chi suddenly thought of the content recorded in Nordic myths:
It is said that the queen of the underworld is named Helheim, and the underworld, named after her, is the residence of the dead. The underworld is very far away from the world and is hidden underground. There is a gilded crystal bridge on the border of the underworld. The one responsible for guarding the bridge is a terrifying dead bone.
In this way, the "gods" believed in by the Immortal Zone may be the "Bone Guardian" responsible for guarding the underworld, but just being a gatekeeper can't compete with other monsters in the city.
"Can it be 'merging' with the vampire, right?"
Lin Chi put down the book and looked at the bloody wooden stakes on the sidewalk outside the window. When he was about to continue looking for other clues, he heard a sound of dragging animals in the basement.
Hurry...
Something was moving in the basement and approaching the basement door. Although I had not seen the scene in the basement, Lin Chi had already figured out the scene of the sculpture splicing out of human bones and staggering forward.
——That thing is resurrected?
Hearing the sound in the basement, Lin Chi sneakily opened the main door of the house and slipped out, preparing to leave the "crime scene".
Then, the scenery in front of him instantly turned into a scarlet red:
Bang!
The door that had just been opened was closed heavily. Lin Chi's body flew back to the living room like paper scraps absorbed by a vacuum cleaner, and was pressed on the wooden chair in the living room by an unresistible force.
The statue made of human bones dragged its heavy body to Lin Chi, put down the double swords in his hand, and a pleasant male voice came from his boned body:
"Welcome to the Immortal Zone, the Messenger of the Gods."
"Ah?" Lin Chi frowned and looked at the dead bone.
The angry voice just now disappeared, replaced by a very magnetic male voice, which seemed to have changed people compared to before. Under Lin Chi's confused eyes, Kugu continued to communicate with him in a kind tone:
"I can see that you are a person who serves the gods. So, are you interested in serving me?"
"Who are you?" Lin Chi asked.
"I am the 'blood god'." The other party reported a very good name: "My believers have obtained an immortal body, and are therefore afraid of other gods in the city. At the request of the God King, my believers cannot leave this area. Once they are discovered by guards in other places, they will be executed immediately."
"Blood God? What is the specific name?" Lin Chi asked again.
The Skeleton did not answer this question, but continued to express his request to the "God Messenger" in the house: "Messenger, I need a classic called "The Book of Crimson", which is hidden in the territory of Samar. If you can bring the book over, I will give you the power of the Blood God and make you a presence that scares other gods!"
Before he finished speaking, the progress of the task in Lin Chi's taskbar also changed:
Blood of the Night:
Enter Samar's territory and help the Blood God obtain the "Book of Crimson".
Mission Reward: Power of Blood God.
