Chapter 388 The Gate of the Saints (Monday Seeking Recommendation Votes)
Hearing the high priest's voice, the Sphinx's expression changed, he turned sideways, and looked at "Askar".
He was not only silently testifying that it was Askar who taught the low-level "tomb keepers" a lesson, but also quietly distanced himself from him so as not to be punished by the high priest together.
At this time, "Aska" was naturally already Lucian, and the location of this corridor just now collided with the "janitor" was to let them take care of monitoring the magic circle, so as to drag themselves to a remote corner to "teach a lesson", giving themselves plenty of time and a good environment to transform.
At the end of the corridor, a high priest wrapped in black corpse cloth with his entire body and four plush legs was the one guarding the "Saint's Gate", who followed Inke's gaze and looked at Lucian coldly with his rotten and gloomy dark eyes.
This guy just had a tragic car accident, Lucian scolded him, lowered his head, and pretended to be afraid and awe: "High Priest, just now there was a tomb keeper running around in the mausoleum, violating the laws formulated by the priest of God's favor.
The high priest's eyes seemed to be looking up and down Lucian, cold and lifeless, making people's hearts palpitate.
Lucian controlled the muscles, making them tremble slightly, and then the heart beat slightly faster, dong dong, dong dong dong, full of "uneasiness".
With the talent magic, he carefully examined the sphinx "Ascar" in front of him and made sure that he had no problem, and then the high priest slowly spoke: "You just used magic?"
The sound plate did not fluctuate, as if the vocal cords were broken.
"He, he...... Actually resisted, I, I, I'm not, yes, intentionally......" Lucian stuttered "in fear", and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, just to let you notice the magic fluctuations!
If Askar is allowed to be unconscious here, in less than ten minutes, Helgus will definitely come to find "Fall", so that the matter can be easily exposed, and he needs to wait for the opportunity to sneak into the "Sage's Gate" so quickly, so he must create an opportunity to send "Fall" back!
This forced Lucian to use "Malicious Transfiguration" to turn Askar into "Fall", and at the same time prevented advanced casters from noticing him - it was almost impossible for the Grand Knight and mid-level casters to see through the transfiguration performed by Lucian, who was already at an advanced level.
In the "movement" that taught Askar just now, Lucian successively simulated two types of Sphinx innate magic to cover up the malicious transfiguration, and tried to suppress the fluctuations of these two innate magic, so that the Sphinx not far away could not sense it, thus disguising himself as a normal Sphinx who couldn't control his anger and used magic and was worried about being discovered.
However, the fluctuations of talent magic could not completely avoid the induction of the magic circle in the mausoleum, and were discovered by the high priest on duty tonight by monitoring the magic circle!
Fortunately, this is part of Lucian's plan, because he has to find an excuse to send "Fall" back in person!
The high priest seemed to be able to see through Lucian's eyes staring at him like a body and soul, and "read" all kinds of "normal" emotions such as fear, uneasiness, and panic from them, as well as the pleasure and exhilaration that had not yet disappeared.
"Aska, you didn't handle this matter very well, you shouldn't use magic in the mausoleum anyway unless the enemy invades. When the task of guarding the 'Gate of the Saints' is over, I will be punished with flogging." The high priest's voice was ethereal and flat, without any emotional ups and downs, which was extremely uncomfortable to listen to, as if he was facing a decaying ghost that should have died completely for many years but was still floating in the tomb.
"Yes, High Priest." Lucian replied "frustrated and painful", it seems that the high priest chose to punish privately because he was worried that he would be scolded in front of the priests, after all, there were two incidents in a row that broke the law during his shift guard.
The high priest continued to speak rigidly, "You bring back the lawbreaking crypt keeper to his squad and let his captain punish him. Tell his captain to find me after the guard is over."
The unconscious tomb keeper could not be left lying in the corridor like this, and the task of sending him back naturally could not be completed by the noble high priest himself.
"Follow your will." Lucian suppressed the joy in his heart.
When the high priest returned to the "Gate of the Saints", Lucian glanced at Ink "angrily and contemptuously": "You timid scorpion, don't talk to me in the future!"
Inke was still a little guilty and panicked, and planned to explain, but Lucian's attitude suddenly made him angry. snorted heavily: "Wait to be whipped!"
Successfully destroyed the "little buddy" relationship between the two, and no longer had to worry about Lucian, whose identity was exposed because of the conversation, almost hummed a little song, turned the corner, dragged "Fair" back the way he came.
…………
Outside the eerie hall filled with black coffins, Helges said angrily and doubtfully: "Aska, what did you do to my subordinates?"
Snap, throwing "Fell" into the hall, Lucian snorted: "Helgus, you damn subordinate dares to ram me, so I taught him a good lesson and made him unable to wake up for a few days!"
"Dirty scorpion, only I can teach my subordinates a lesson!" Helgus was furious, took a step forward, and looked at "Aska" with his eyes, only a fist away.
"Helgus, so what if you taught a lesson? Do you dare to do it? Haha, let me tell you, the high priest asked you to go to him after you finished guarding, and you actually indulged your subordinates to wander around the mausoleum!" Lucian laughed triumphantly.
Helgus' anger immediately disappeared, and he said with a slight trembling: "What?"
"Haha, wait to be whipped!" Borrowing Inke's words, Lucian turned around and left arrogantly, very much like Aska and Ascar.
Helgus roared in a low voice, but didn't dare to really do it, so he could only watch Askar leave in anger, and then he moved on all fours, pacing back and forth to relieve the depression in his heart.
"Lord Helges, shall we ask the priest to treat Fell and let him wake up early." A "tomb keeper" stepped forward and said flatteringly.
"Treat you X, scorpion, beat him up again!" Helgus flew up his front legs and kicked his subordinates in vain attempts to please him, hating the culprit, and then, he danced on all fours, trampling "Phil" all over his body.
No crypt keeper is not afraid of angering the high priest!
…………
Lucian and Inke walked to the gate of the Saint in silence, took the halberd, and began to guard upright.
The high priest also returned to the stone hut and continued his prayers.
As time passed, the mausoleum became more and more cold, and a stream of death breath rolled and roared, as if countless undead creatures were waving their forest-like arms and hitting the gate. If it were a timid Sphinx, he might have fallen weak at this time.
Seeing the high priest kneeling and praying, Ince looked ahead, without the slightest intention of talking in a low voice, and Lucian began to think about how to sneak in.
Regarding the layout of the Saint's Gate magic circle and spell simulation, Rhine has already taught Lucian - even if he is a legendary vampire, when he infiltrates this gate, he cannot pass through it directly, and Lucian has already completed the analysis.
After confirming that the situation was correct, Lucian had a preliminary draft, that is, to take advantage of the boundary between night and day, and use the temporary mutation of death power inside the Saint's Gate to cover up his magic fluctuations.
Things went smoothly, except for Helgus who came over with a team of tomb keepers to patrol a few times and glared at Lucian angrily, nothing unusual happened all night.
Before dawn, the darkest and coldest hour came, and the "Gate of the Saints" became distorted in a trance, like a door of shadow leading to the sleeping hell of the dead.
The rich aura of death and cold seeped out from inside, making Lucian's knight-level body tremble slightly.
"Do you have the aura of the necromancer?" Lucian said in astonishment in his heart.
Although he did not wear the "Crown of the Sun", he had seen and entered the Necromancer World several times, and had dealt with high-level undead from the Necromancer Realm, and his "sensitivity" to the Necromancer Realm had long surpassed that of other spellcasters.
"Could it be that the Sphinx King Finks chose this place as his mausoleum because there was a gap in the necromancer world? Is the resurrection legend it left behind related to the necromancer?"
"That's right, since Mr. Rhine is arranging for the Necromancer, he must choose a place related to the Necro Realm, otherwise after a certain node converges, it will not be able to affect the Necromancer. It seems that the Kotao Fishman Altar and the Thanos Underground Palace also have gaps in the necromancer world......"
"The underground palace of Sun King Thanos has a gap in the necromancer world...... Then did he know about the existence of the necromancer world? Is his fall related to this?"
Countless questions and reliefs came to Lucian's mind almost at the same time, and he became more and more wary of the necromancer.
Now is not a good time to think, Lucian suppressed all kinds of thoughts and patiently waited for dawn.
Outside the Finx Mausoleum, the indistinguishable dark border in the distance slowly lit up with an orange-red light, and the majestic sacred aura pierced the cold and dead silence.
When the sun had just risen, a ray of sunlight miraculously shone on the spire of the Finx Mausoleum, coming from nowhere.
Inside the mausoleum, the aura of death that seemed to be countless undead roaring and hitting the gate of the saint suddenly withered and retreated, like ice and snow melting.
It "retreated" so quickly that it stimulated bursts of strong fluctuations, and it seemed that there would be changes at any time.
At this time, the high priest's attention was all focused on the back of the Saint's gate, while Inke had no interest in the familiar scene, his eyes were level ahead.
Suddenly, Lucian's body shook like a wave of water, and a transparent figure was strangely separated, and then, under the cover of "itself", the "transparent body" chanted a silent spell, and the gas penetrated into the gap in the ground of the Saint's gate as if it were permeating.
In front of the gate, "Aska" was still standing upright facing ahead.
Five-ring illusion "Resident Phantom"!
Four-ring magic "vaporization form"!
