Channel

  Thinking of this, Du Fan's instinctive tension in his heart, he reached out to touch Chenchen's head and stroked it for a moment, and the intense heartbeat slowly recovered.

  Nicholas waved his hand slightly in front, and the two Knights Templar in front nodded and walked forward, but at this moment they didn't dare to be careless. The knight's sword had already been drawn from its scabbard and was held horizontally across their chest.

  As they proceeded, the passage above and below them suddenly lit up uniformly, this faint light just illuminated the surrounding area of several meters around the two Knights Templar.

  A faint fluorescence shone on them, looking a bit mysterious, but also reassuring.

  Nicholas was about to step forward, but Alfred suddenly stretched out his hand and blocked his way, entering first.

  Nicholas watched Alfred's movements and couldn't help but think of something, a faint smile appeared on his face, then he also followed up.

  Outside of this channel, at this time, there are only four people left. Du Fan slightly tilted his head and looked at Tasia with a expressionless face, saying in a low voice: "Does Miss Tasia need to go first?"

  Tasia nodded slightly, not answering, but waved her hand, and a faint blue light appeared in front of her. She stretched out her hand to support the light, and then slowly walked into the passage.

  Du Fan watched her movements and was slightly stunned, but he didn't think much of it and followed her in. The two Temple Knights behind him also understood that among the four main characters on this trip, Du Fan's strength was actually the weakest. Although they didn't know what method he had used to get in just now, they still had to protect him well.

  The two Knights Templar followed closely behind Dufan as he walked forward.

  The passageway didn't look as dilapidated as imagined, with exquisite stone slabs on the ground, not a speck of dust on them, and no feeling of decay from years of neglect.

  Even on the walls on both sides, some inexplicable patterns were faintly waving, with colors that had reached an extreme brilliance. At this time, however, no one was interested in admiring these artworks left behind from who-knows-how-many years ago.

  The blue light in the passage flashed from time to time, and there seemed to be a gentle breeze blowing by, so compared to the previous place that was full of stench and blood, the air was infinitely better.

  Tasia didn't know for what reason, but after catching up with the team in front of her, she turned around and glanced at Du Fan, explaining in a low voice: "The light around us should be formed by a magic array. At the same time, this magic array should have other effects, so the air in this passage can remain clear all the time. I even suspect that this magic array is a rare infinite loop magic array. This kind of magic array will not stop running unless it is violently destroyed. With such a magic array, I think after passing through here, we should be at our destination."

  Du Fan smiled faintly and said, "If it were that easy, it would be great."

  Tasia was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "Du Fan is right, it's me who oversimplified the problem."

  Although he didn't know why this iceberg beauty suddenly said these things to him, Du Fan basically had no mood to tease the beauty at this moment. When Tasia nodded slightly in response, her feet also quickened a few steps, and soon she caught up with Nikolai's footsteps.

  After walking for hundreds of meters in this strange and weird passage, the terrain seemed to start extending slowly downwards. Everyone could feel this change, and their footsteps couldn't help but pause for a moment.

  However, after exchanging a glance with each other, they didn't say much and just took a deep breath before continuing on their way. As they walked further, the passageway became increasingly deeper and more secluded. By the end, what was originally a straight path had become winding and tortuous. If it weren't for the fact that there were no forks in the road along the way, Du Fan and his companions would have almost suspected that they were lost.

  And as they walked, the walls and floor around where Du Fan and others stood would faintly light up, and after they left, those places would all darken. This design is a bit similar to the induction lamps of Du Fan's previous life, it's indeed ingenious!

  Du Fan couldn't help but sigh and say, "This magic array is truly astonishing. At least in my lifetime, I've never seen anyone with such skills."

  Tasia nodded beside him and said, "Don't mention Du Fan, even I haven't seen it yet."

  As she spoke, Tasia's footsteps quickened unconsciously, and Du Fan looked at her with some surprise, even more puzzled as to why this little girl who usually didn't have much to say to him had suddenly become a professional lecturer.

  But at this moment, Du Fan didn't have the interest to guess the woman's mind, and after sighing for a while, he fell silent again.

  After walking for a while, the passage in front of them suddenly became clear and bright. A slightly brighter light came from the end of the passage. Several people hastened their pace to move forward, but when they saw everything clearly in front of them, they all stopped abruptly.

  Du Fan looked ahead, his eyes flashing for a moment, and after a while he couldn't help but sigh: "What the hell is this place?"

  All they saw was before their eyes, and a huge cave suddenly appeared. This cave is not one or two times larger than the one they arrived at earlier. Du Fan and his party were in what should be the middle of this cave. From their direction, looking down at the bottom, it was actually an ancient city.

  Above the cave, something was placed, and a faint light illuminated the entire cave, allowing Du Fan and others to see the city below vaguely.

  He only took a few glances, and Du Fan couldn't help but slightly purse his lips. This suddenly appearing city, whether it was the layout, size, or the arrangement of buildings, was exactly the same as a standard city. However, at the very center of the city, there was another tall building that stood out. The building had a sword-like shape, somewhat similar to the so-called Golden Pyramid from Du Fan's past life. From their current position, they could see the top of the building, where a solemn and majestic temple stood. What surprised Du Fan the most, however, was that although this temple looked ancient, it was vaguely recognizable, and it was astonishingly similar to the temple he had seen not long ago under a holy light.

  Everyone present felt a little stunned and at a loss for what to do.

  After a moment, Du Fan couldn't help but say: "Nicholas, you said that middle place, could it be the real Temple of God?"

  Nicholas hesitated for a moment, then closed his eyes and sensed it for a while. His face became even more peculiar. He stared at that place for a moment before saying, "I'm not sure either, but going there now is always right."

  Several people exchanged a glance and nodded to each other. In this situation, apart from continuing on, there really was no other way to think about it.

  At this time, the four Knights Templar had explored around and came back. Ferre walked forward and said in a low voice: "Everyone, there is only one road that leads to the city below, but that road is somewhat strange."

  Alfred frowned and said, "What's strange?"

  Ferrad said: "This, I'd rather not say, in short, you gentlemen will understand once you take a look."

  Du Fan and others nodded, and then walked in that direction.

  When we got there, looking at the slope in front of us that wound around the cave and slowly descended, everyone was stunned.

  All that can be seen is the slope in front, and the wall of the cave surrounding it in circles. It's indeed possible to reach the city below, but this narrow-looking path seems a bit strange.

  On one side of the slope, there was a steep cliff. At this height, unless you were a Saint-level expert, even if you were a magician who could fly, falling from here would result in a miserable death. On the other side, however, the wall was covered with dense stone carvings.

  The shapes of these statues are indeed strange, some look like a person torn in half, others resemble human skeletons, and some seem to be the fusion of humans and animals, Du Fan even recognized several legendary demons from the Roland continent from afar.

  But apart from this, these statues are more of a shape that can't be described.

  However, no matter what kind of statue it is, they are all vivid and lifelike. For example, the statue that looks like a person torn in half, although it's made of a light gray material, gives people a strong visual impact, as if there really was a person torn in half standing in front of them.

  Du Fan felt a chill in his heart, and subconsciously didn't want to pass by this place, but the only road in front of him was this one. For a moment, he hesitated, unsure of what to do next.

  Alfred snorted and said, "These spooky things, we'll just go down from here, what's there to be afraid of? Can these statues come to life or something?"
