Chapter 217 - 103 Power Gem Golden Sphere_2
Unexpectedly, he saw it again in the alternate dimension.
Moreover, this altar far surpasses those mediocre ones from the Silver Moon Sect, and certainly better medium quality too.
“A valuable find…”
Leonard Churchill gazed at the place where the thread converged, letting out a deep breath, his eyes bursting with anticipation.
But he didn’t rush to grab it.
The moment he grabbed it, it would definitely expose him.
He thought of something else.
Seeing this altar, even without further investigation, Leonard realized instantly the construct of the Demon headquarters.
“The ‘Four-pillar Moon Arch’ layout…”
Leonard thought about the secret room in the Grand Cemetery Labyrinth.
Previously, he had used his half-knowledge of this layout to directly destroy the base of the Silver Moon Sect in Sinless City.
Now, it seems the show is about to be replayed.
With the position of one among the four pillars confirmed, there was no need for further reconnaissance. There were probably three of this kind of altars in the rest of this lair.
The important thing was the position of the ‘Moon’!
“Seems like I have come near the most crucial place…”
Leonard pondered.
He felt that if his guess was right, that should be the exact location of the ‘Demon Secret Passage’.
His gaze flickered, and without lingering at the spot, he headed deeper into the cave.
There was no need to ascertain the direction deliberately; the trench had already indicated the direction.
Before long, Leonard arrived at a massive underground space!
This place was as big as four to five football fields.
As soon as he entered, a hundreds-meter-tall statue of a human-headed spider brutally hit his vision.
Previously, he was unsure which ancient god the Silver Moon Sect worshipped.
Now, seeing this statue, Leonard immediately thought of some records about ancient gods from the scriptures. He knew who this deity was.
Arachne, the Lord of Dreams and Pleasure?
The moment he looked at this statue, Enlightenment appeared: ‘You are exempted from one pollution of faith.’
“Does this statue actually have divine power?”
Leonard looked on, his inner feelings mixed and complicated.
Without Joker’s exemption from faith pollution, could humans endure this place?
He felt that this was probably not something an A-rank plot could touch on.
Leonard’s position was just right on cave wall, which afforded him a full view of the football-field-sized Nine-point Star Array right in front of him.
Enlightenment had already given a clear hint: ‘You discovered the hidden plot space ‘Demon Secret Passage’, exploration progress +30%’.
Ironically, it was just as Leonard arrived that the pitch-black light in the Nine-point Star teleportation array grew stronger.
It looked as if space had been torn apart.
After the magical light dissipated, around one thousand variously-sized demons suddenly emerged from the array.
“Summoning a thousand demons at once is not too many…”
Looking at the dense Demon Corps, Leonard estimated the total number of monsters in Sawtooth Forest, probably around two to three hundred thousand?
He didn’t come here for sightseeing, but to cause as much trouble as possible.
Seeing this, his brain suddenly started turning.
All alone, fighting wasn’t the option.
Leonard’s gaze turned to the statue.
In his view, the teleportation array managed to summon so many demons across the spatial extent, consuming an undoubtedly enormous energy source.
Even without understanding the principle of the spatial teleportation array, one could guess that such a huge energy source must have a direct connection with this statue.
“Huh…?”
Leonard observed the statue from top to bottom carefully and quickly saw a floating metal ball in the statue’s hand.
It was the size of a fist and engraved with very esoteric hollow runes.
The moment the teleportation was activated, he clearly saw the metal ball emitting a strong black light.
The Demon Corps was teleported over, and it seemed to have exhausted its energy now, turning into a grey orb that looked more like a stone.
Power Gem Golden Sphere.
Explanation: A rule gem forged by the ancient dwarves, containing the power of the upper-level power rule; but after being broken, it has lost most of its divine power.
“It’s this!”
Seeing this, a hint of mockery appeared at the corners of Leonard’s mouth.
Such rule-level objects are on the same level as Disaster Objects.
Theoretically, his current cognition would not allow him to see through its effects.
But he saw it now.
It was a hint given by the spatial will: he could take this thing out!
There were many things inside the teleportation array, but other things like Energy Stones didn’t seem particularly important. This kind of ‘unique’ item immediately caught Leonard’s eye.
Moreover, it was in such a conspicuous place, Leonard was confident that he could easily get it.
Because there was no need for any other mechanical defenses.
A glance at it could result in faith pollution, this statue itself is a huge trap.
Ordinary non-Ancient God devotees could not get close.
But Leonard completely ignored the pollution!
The thirteen ways to divine pointed to fifty-two professional sequences, each of which had its own special abilities.
But Joker was very special.
The integrated talent abilities gave Leonard a feeling like hiding in the shadow of the world, like a shadow.
By now, Leonard could somewhat understand the intention of the god who created the card.
As written in the card: ‘The clown mocks the hypocrisy of the gods, ridicules the impotence of the death god, and also satirizes human greed and cowardice… He moves silently in the shadows, observing the entire world.’
This ability was purely created to cause trouble under the eyelids of gods!
Thinking of this, Leonard suddenly gave a grin.
In that moment, it seemed as if a blurry illusion of a clown appeared behind him, and it too grinned at the statue in front of them..
