Chapter 685 Scarlet Battlefield
"It is speculated that the commotion may have been caused by the fish that slipped through the net. There are not many people on the earth who are qualified to call for the descent of Menechka. Maybe he has encountered a strong enemy."
"But it doesn't look like there was a battle here?"
Debra Sank looked around. The dense woods were lush and green. How could there be a tragic scene like the sky and the earth falling apart after two secret diamonds fought?
"The battle did not take place on the surface."
A middle-aged man with an expressionless face spoke next to him.
His eyes lit up with a rotating and shrinking red light, penetrating through the several square kilometers of mountains below him like X-rays.
"There is a huge cavity deep in the rock formation, where the battle should have taken place."
"Then what are you waiting for? Aren't you going in?"
Debra Sank frowned in confusion and was about to fall to the ground, but found that everyone was looking at her with strange eyes.
"Debra, the thickness of the rock formation is close to one kilometer. If we want to go in, we can only break the mountain into pieces, which may cause earthquakes. There are many villages and towns nearby..."
The kind-faced Arabella explained with a wry smile, and Debra finally realized that not every profession is like a magician, with all kinds of weird ways to penetrate walls.
Nodding, an earthy yellow magic halo bloomed from her body, covering all the figures in the sky.
Immediately afterwards, the huge earth-yellow comet trailed a faint tail flame and fell to the earth silently, like water droplets blending into the sea and disappearing.
The people wrapped in the magic aura penetrated the thick rock formations without any hindrance, and finally came to a strange space.
"Light!"
Arabella whispered softly, and the dark space became bright. The soft holy light illuminated the place like daylight.
But the sight they saw made them frown.
There was only a patch of blood red in the wide and empty hemispherical space. The melted magma cooled and solidified, but it still retained the flowing shape of the liquid, as if the entire world was coated with a layer of viscous plasma.
It felt like he and others had been swallowed into the stomach of some huge monster, and a feeling of disgust arose instinctively.
Squatting down and twisting the brittle blood-red rock and soil, the expressionless man rubbed it with his fingers, crushed it into powder, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed twice, and his eyes glowed with mechanical red light.
"It really contains human blood components, as well as burnt proteins and bones that have been melted into powder..."
Hearing this, everyone's eyebrows wrinkled.
"Is it some weird sacrificial ceremony? It doesn't look like Menechka's style..."
A slovenly, decadent man scratched his head and looked around.
In this blood-red space, an altar with a different style stood in the center, surrounded by dark red smelly soil.
"Let's go and have a look."
"Well, be careful."
Everyone tensed up their nerves, deployed their own defensive methods, and cautiously approached the altar.
Even a group of secret diamonds would not dare to be careless when facing the altar of the gods. If they are not careful, they may not even know how they died!
Invisible ripples scanned back and forth on the altar over and over again, but no trace of divine power was detected.
"Abandoned altar? No...it was destroyed..."
Arabella's eyes flashed with light, and her pupils were dyed platinum.
"There should be divine protection in front of the altar. You can see that the surrounding soil is still in its original state."
"Thirty percent of it is the solid residue left by dried blood. Well, it all belongs to humans."
"The altar has not experienced extensive damage. The main material is ordinary granite. The construction specifications are in line with Menechka's rituals. It was built more than ten years ago!"
………………
The tacit understanding stayed at the junction of the clearly defined soil. Everyone peered at the altar and stated their findings in a low voice.
In just a few minutes, the clues were basically completely analyzed. Everyone looked at each other and took a step forward.
The power running to the extreme was about to explode, but the imagined scene did not appear. The entire altar was lifeless, as if it had really been abandoned by God.
Stepping onto the steps, everyone walked up to the altar step by step, and finally discovered something different at the top!
"what is that?"
Debra Sank's pupils shrank suddenly when she saw the dark gold-encrusted envelope inserted on the stone slab.
This subtle fluctuation of energy was keenly captured by everyone, and in an instant, all eyes were focused on her.
"That's a letter from the [Secret Banquet Association]..."
"Scarlet Archon—Vladimir?"
Arabella's brows jumped, and a handsome and mysterious white-haired boy immediately appeared in her mind.
Although the others had never met him in person, they had heard of his name and couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
Is he really a diamond in the rough?
Otherwise, how could there be such a big scene?
In the eerie silence, the decadent man carefully pulled up the letter and looked at the colorful mysterious emblem in the center with confusion.
Unfortunately, as an upright and honest warrior, he could only instinctively sense the extraordinaryness in it. How powerful it was was beyond his ability to see through.
"It's not dangerous, Debra, can you take it apart?"
After looking carefully for a while, the decadent man asked the only experienced mage present.
"Wait, show me!"
Arabella suddenly shouted and took the envelope with some excitement and trembling.
Tsk, I thought I could hide it for a while longer...
Knowing that he had also discovered the secret of the runes, Debra Sank mentally rolled her eyes.
"What? What's wrong with this coat of arms?"
The danger was temporarily eliminated, and everyone's curiosity prevailed. They all looked at the rune seal in the center of the envelope.
The abstract and profound five-color lines intertwined and blended with each other, forming a gorgeous and complex obscure emblem. Just a few more glances, everyone's mind was in chaos, and the five-color lines in their eyes seemed to come alive, slowly twisting and wriggling, and combined into an indescribable strange emblem.
Although they could not understand the meaning of these emblems, their souls instinctively felt the grandeur and depth contained in them.
As if they had peeked into the greatest sacred law in the universe, everyone shuddered involuntarily, and their hair stood on end.
"Hiss... this thing..."
"My God, what the hell is this?"
"How can this system of laws exist in reality? This is unscientific!"
Several magic professions lost their usual grace and calmness, like cats whose tails were stepped on, their hair stood on end.
The warrior profession, who didn't quite understand what was going on, looked at each other, tacitly fell into silence, and seemed unfathomable.
"Debra, is this the badge of the [Secret Banquet Association]?"
"Yes!"
"Where on earth did they come from? How come I have never seen such a system before?"
"Even you [Ancient Covenant] have never seen it?"
"If the ancient gods control such great power, do you think they will still fall into a deep sleep?"
"Uh... What about the [Mechanicus]? You store most of the extraordinary data in the world. Do you have similar clues?"
"I can't even find 1% of the similarity."
"[Foundation]... Forget it, you are only good at dealing with sealed objects..."
