Chapter 819 Pushing Forward

Vampires are very difficult creatures. The most effective way to deal with them is to find a priest, especially a priest of Lathander.

Gods like Lathander who have sun-related priesthoods have priests who are also very good at dealing with undead creatures. In fact, many vampire hunters are funded by the Church of Lathander.

If there is no priest, you can rely on a mage, but the effect is not as good as a priest.

But if you are just a warrior with a sword, it is better not to mess with vampires. You will find that even if you chop a vampire into meat paste, it can regenerate.

Li Chengxi's situation is similar to that of a warrior with a sword. He has been a god for too short a time. Although he can grant others divine arts, he himself cannot use them well.

So after seeing the blood slaves constantly regenerating, he was very troubled.

But the solutions are all thought up by people. It is good to tie the hands and feet of the blood slaves together and tie a knot. At least they can't untie themselves in a short time.

Looking at the blood slaves crawling on the ground, Li Chengxi decided to do the same thing when he encounters vampires in the future.

Ignoring the blood slaves on the side, Li Chengxi snapped his fingers, and two light balls floating around illuminated the hall just after entering the castle.

The biggest problem now is where to go.

There is a Y-shaped staircase in front, leading to the second floor. There are four doors on the left and right sides of the hall, all leading to different directions.

The Demon King's Ring is sealed, otherwise Li Chengxi would know where to go instinctively if he wanted to find the Demon King's Ring, just like having a built-in navigation.

Now there is no clear goal, and it feels like the Demon King's Ring can be placed anywhere.

In this case, you have to use some old-fashioned methods.

For example, carpet search.

This is the basis of RPG games.

So Li Chengxi didn't rush to the second floor, and turned left directly and walked into the door closest to him.

Men on the left and women on the right.

Behind the door is a long corridor, and the deep darkness spreads in front, making the corridor look more like the throat of a huge beast.

There were some decorations on the corridor, such as vases, paintings, and armor, but there were no windows, or the windows were sealed with wooden boards, so not even a little light could get through.

Li Chengxi walked along the corridor, looking down at the decorations from time to time. He felt that he was more like a tourist than an adventurer.

The flowers in the vase had long been dry and rotten. He could only pour out some ashes when he picked it up, and there was no clue when he smashed it on the ground.

Li Chengxi thought the vase was the switch to open the secret door. You can see that many games are set up like this, so he smashed it all the way...

As for the paintings, most of them were landscapes, and only a few were of a rather stern middle-aged man and a little white-haired loli.

This made Li Chengxi a little excited. Oh, something that appeared by chance was almost what I expected.

However, there was no mechanism behind the paintings. Li Chengxi picked them all the way as he walked, and tore them open to make sure there was really nothing.

——This is even more bandit than a bandit.

And those decorative armors placed on both sides of the corridor...

With a bang, something heavy hit Li Chengxi's shoulder. He turned his head and saw that the armor that was motionless just now was swinging a mace and smashing down.

Some armor is alive.

But again, the divine shield can be immune to almost all attacks that do not contain divine power. Even if a Taishan is really moved to hit Li Chengxi's head, he can easily climb out.

Under the fierce hammer, Li Chengxi reached out and took off the helmet of the armor. There was nothing inside, only a cloud of black smoke.

The identification results showed that this thing is called dead armor, which is the same as the animated armor. The difference is that it is driven by negative energy.

I reached into the dead armor from the neck and dug it out. Maybe my fingers accidentally erased the runes or magic circles, and the dead armor was scattered all over the floor.

But this was like a signal. Several more undead armors that were originally on both sides of the corridor came towards Li Chengxi with a clang. The closest one slashed Li Chengxi's head from the side and back with a sword. The force of the slash was so strong that the blade broke into two sections and flew into the wooden ceiling.

Li Chengxi scratched the back of his head, which was a little itchy. He really wanted to tear the castle apart...

–------

With a little force in his hands, a metal helmet was squeezed into a ball in Li Chengxi's hands like dough.

Throwing it on the stall casually, Li Chengxi's back was full of armor fragments. There were quite a few undead armors.

He kicked the door at the end of the corridor, and the door panel flew out with a whizzing sound. I don't know what it hit.

Other adventurers were cautious when entering such ruins where monsters were obviously present, and tried not to make any noise. Li Chengxi was like, "I'm here, come here quickly!"

The operation was like a bandit entering the city. There was no other intention, just to show arrogance on his face.

After all, it was easier for the boss to come out to find him than to run around in the castle.

However, he had tried his best to make noise, and nothing jumped out. Li Chengxi still had to move forward by himself.

After entering the door, he found that it seemed to be an auditorium.

Every castle has an auditorium, which is a rigid need of the castle. Viola now habitually transforms the auditorium into a church, which is essentially the same design.

With the illumination of the light ball, Li Chengxi saw that this auditorium was actually transformed into a church.

In the innermost part, you can see a stained glass window that was sealed from the outside, and below it stands a large holy emblem about three meters high. Looking at this shape...

It seems to be the holy emblem of the dawn of Lathander.

As expected of a powerful divine power, he is everywhere.

However, the holy emblem itself seems to be damaged, with a layer of sticky black and red stuff on it, and the pattern of the holy emblem was also split into two sections by an axe.

This not only makes the holy emblem lose its function, but also a blasphemy against Lathander.

But it's a bit strange.

Alde said that the seven apostles made a deal with a vampire duke and asked him to help seal the Demon King's Ring. But the Demon King God was not dead at that time.

Although there were already followers of Lathander in the Demon Realm at that time, they were very niche, so niche that there was almost no development.

If the castle was left at that time, the owner of the castle must not be a small fish. Putting a holy emblem of Lathander in the castle is equivalent to publicly announcing support for Lathander, which was definitely a big deal when the Demon King God was the only one in power.

Simply put, something that doesn't match the era has appeared.

Or, the owner of this castle was built after the fall of the Demon King, and the owner of the castle believed in Lathander, but was later usurped?

I don't know if it has any connection with the Demon King's Ring.
