Chapter 86 It's the old man again
"That treacherous goddess? The temple of Venus?"
Mo Mei was not polite at all. Rommel went through untold hardships and died in despair. This was simply worthy of the reputation of the God of Beauty. She had no good impression of Venus at all.
Ophelia didn't know Rommel's story, so she immediately shook her head and retorted: "Venus, the goddess of beauty, was indeed the goddess who bestowed favors at first, but later, for some unknown reason, the goddess's favor suddenly mutated, and everyone who entered changed.
Became a yaksha and a zombie, and then..."
Her tone gradually became lower, and the more she spoke, the less confident she became. Finally, she murmured like a mosquito and lowered her head, until she fell into awkward silence...
The GBL cult believes that Venus, the goddess of beauty, is still watching her devout believers somewhere, but why does she turn a blind eye to the mutated favor and do nothing to save those believers who have turned into yakshas? Let Lotus wreak havoc and ignore it?
Yaksha is a kind of monster with irrational body and twisted body. Most of their skin is brown, with a few mutations that are deeper in black and red. Their legs are thick and powerful, their forelimbs have sharp claws, and their limbs and back have sharp barbs.
His face was even more ferocious and terrifying.
Siatt touched her arm that already had goosebumps, and said disgustedly: "Why are we going? Whoever goes in will mutate. It sounds scary."
"No, our target is an apostle, not a goddess."
Ye Lin slowly shook his head and rejected it. As the leader of the team, he had to make key decisions at critical moments, and the whine of the giant beast under his feet became more and more frequent. It was Behemoth resisting Lotus's mental attack.
"Then we have to go through purgatory. Purgatory is the lowest point on the back of the Sky Curtain Beast. They are all dark elemental elves and undead zombies. There are also Yaksha..."
Before Ophelia could finish her words, she saw everyone staring at her with strange eyes.
"You Heavenly Curtain Behemoths are really rich in products..." Yuena expressed her thoughts for everyone.
After passing through the Dryad Jungle, the terrain begins to go downhill leading to Purgatory. If Purgatory were placed on the body of the Sky Curtain Beast, it would be a canyon in the mountains and the lowest point of the ruins.
"Usually we go through Dornier, but now most of the GBL believers have been defeated, and Ji Zhou must have also been lost."
Ophelia's footsteps suddenly stopped. The ruins in front of her collapsed. The passage to Purgatory was blocked by a huge pile of construction debris. It was so full that it would take a lot of effort to clean it up.
"You are so evil, twin ponytails. If I guessed correctly, there is a shortcut to the first spine in the Temple of the Goddess, right?"
Ophelia was startled for a moment, then pointed at herself and blinked, "Are you asking me? I think so. Uncle Marcel seemed to have said..."
"Boss, I also have twin tails!" Mo Mei raised her hands and muttered as if she was very dissatisfied.
"The most adorable thing about you is your bun hair. The twin ponytails are just incidental. Let's go to the Temple of the Goddess!"
Ye Lin suddenly changed his mind. The curse of Venus, the goddess of beauty, sounded scary, but if Venus and Held were connected, it would not be scary anymore.
Held needs a "sharpened edge" to kill the apostle, and the relics on the Sky Veil Beast almost confirm her involvement. The Temple of the Goddess may be an unexpected discovery for adventurers.
Moreover, Baan has already boarded the Sky Veil Behemoth in advance. If he were to kill Lotus first, he would be neither crying nor laughing.
The difference between the GBL Goddess Temple and the outside of the temple is that the entire temple has walls, and you can't see the clouds floating around the giant sky-curtain beast. As soon as you step in, a cold feeling goes straight into your body.
"When you look at these murals at the entrance, they seem a bit familiar."
The content of the mural in front of Siatt was very strange. A goddess in black with a vague face stood in the center of orange flowers. There were several respectful believers under her hands. The believers were wearing wide robes and stone masks.
"Our customs of dressing and masks are learned from here." Ophelia crossed her arms and shivered. She actually entered the temple of the goddess, which was known as a restricted area.
At this moment, a roar and a shrill wail suddenly came from the depths of the Temple of the Goddess, followed closely by the sound of fierce fighting.
"Vangelis! And Isadora!"
Ophelia's eyes lit up, Vangelis was the leader of the GBL commando team, and Isadora was the director of the library.
"Your Royal Highness? Are you here too?" Mailu whispered.
"It's Isadula, not Isabella. Originally, these two were supposed to be in the Arad branch, but they have changed..."
Ye Lin seemed to be talking to himself, feeling a little more confident about whether he could have a good talk with Lotus.
I quickly rushed to the depths of the Temple of the Goddess. I could see dead Yakshas and undead zombies everywhere along the way. Finally, I saw two surviving believers and a huge corpse of a fallen Yaksha.
"Ophelia...you have invited reinforcements back?"
Vangelis seemed to be injured. He was holding a gold-colored cup inlaid with rubies in his left hand. His right hand was being supported by Isadora. He seemed to be seriously injured.
"This is the Holy Grail of Venus. I snatched it back from the fallen Athol. With this, we will definitely defeat the apostles!"
The Holy Grail swayed with Fangelis's excited trembling, but what was shocking was that the inside of the cup seemed empty, but ink droplets were falling from the edge every moment.
"The cursed Holy Grail is tainted with the aura of black nightmare, and yes, the Sky Veil Beast is indeed a good place to gather light."
Ye Lin held his forehead and was speechless. The mutation of Venus' grace was actually the work of the old man. His shadow was everywhere, and the nightmare seed was even more lingering.
"With all due respect, if you hold this thing for a while longer, you will be completely screwed."
Lotus's mental control has already made people desperate, and Vangelis has brought out another black nightmare. Isn't this a life of boredom?
Vangelis's eyes were wild, and there was a faint black aura lingering around him. The hand that clenched the Holy Grail showed how he could throw away something he had finally obtained.
GBL religion records that it was because of the Temple of Venus that the great Leslie first came up with the idea of exploring ancient ruins and gathering knowledge from all over the world.
"Knock him out, idiot."
Isadora wanted to speak out to stop Siatt, but he glared hard at him and shut up obediently.
"It's lucky that you two are not dead, but you still want to run over and give Lotus his head, and you want to be possessed by an octopus and covered in slime?"
He looked at Isadora up and down. Not only was she beautiful and virtuous, but the wide purple robe could not hide her exquisite figure. Her long burgundy hair and purple eyes exuded indescribable charm.
Such a beautiful lady, and then there is a one-eyed octopus lying on her body? The plot of the book?
…
Ophelia timidly whispered: "It is recorded in ancient books that the Holy Grail of Venus has the ability to bring people back to life..."
"Ah……"
Yelin sneered and poked the Holy Grail with his sword, then looked up at Ophelia and Isadora, "The Holy Grail can't even protect you, and Venus is turning a blind eye to the disasters of your believers. Is it possible that he can revive the dead?"
Is it the death of a human and the rebirth of a yaksha?”
He glanced at the statue of the goddess mounted on the wall. Venus had a peaceful face and a faint smile in her eyes, but underneath the statue were the miserable corpses of Yaksha.
Isadura carefully tugged on Ophelia's clothes, "We found your master... Aden Bader on the only way to the first spine."
"Master, shouldn't he have left the Sky Curtain Behemoth?"
Ophelia lost her voice instantly. As the most likely leader of the GBL religion, Aden Bader had been expelled for a long time because he worshiped the power of the forbidden curse.
