basic swordsmanship

Chapter 330
Opening the door of truth is not a joke. If it is someone else in the temple, they will definitely be arrested directly, or even executed.

But Geraint Knight is no ordinary person.

First of all, he is one of the four Templars, the top person in the temple, higher than the archbishop in terms of status, the four templars are the first level, and the archbishop is the second level.

In addition, this time Tang An borrowed the will of the gods.

This kind of thing is not a joke, but everyone knows that it is impossible for a pious Templar to lie about this kind of thing.

Except for fakes like Tang An.

So in this case, the Geraint knight asked to open the door of truth, and Archbishop Devin had no reason to object.

"Okay, please also invite Geraint Knight to come in with me." Archbishop Devin could only agree.

At this moment, Tang An said to Bourne and the others behind him: "You wait here."

These knights will strictly abide by the order, because this time they are going to the gate of truth, so other people really cannot enter.

This is the rule.

Entering the cathedral, the temple priests who met inside immediately fell to their knees when they saw the armor on Tang An's body and the sword of faith at his waist.

In their eyes, no matter who they are, as long as they have the sword of faith, they are the ones chosen by God, and they must salute to express their respect.In a way, they were actually saluting the armor and the sword, not the person.

Archbishop Devon continued forward, through a long corridor, and then to a very secluded building behind.

There is an iron door here. After opening, go down the spiral staircase and enter the underground. At first there is some light, but after reaching the back, it is pitch black. The only light source is the torch in the hand of Archbishop Devin.

Tang An has been following behind.

According to Geraint's memory, this is indeed the way to the door of truth.

Of course, there is no one else here, and this is a real forbidden place, even Archbishop Devin can't come down without any special reason.

After walking for a long time, maybe hundreds of meters down, I came out, and there was a very empty and huge space below.

There are some braziers around, which contain special grease, which can burn for several years without extinguishing, and only need to be filled with fuel every few years.

In the darkness ahead stood a gigantic portal.

Tang An knew that that was the door of truth.

How big is this door?
In Tang An's view, at least the height was over 30 meters.

This height already looks like a colossus, and people standing below it will appear very small.

This is a real door.

The rocky door panels are tightly closed at the moment. It is hard to imagine the weight of these two door panels, and it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to open them.

"Knight Geraint, do you really want to open the door of truth?" Archbishop Devin asked at this time: "You know, the price of disturbing the gods is very terrible."

"I'm sure, this is the will of the gods." Tang An was still full of confidence.

"Okay, as you wish." Archbishop Devin started a certain ritual at this time. He chanted a spell, and then the flames on the surrounding brazier began to rise, flying incredibly high several meters high.

Under the light of the flame, the light was higher than before.

And right here in a dark dungeon, a few tall giants without facial features dragged a dozen people out of the dungeon.

These terrifying-looking giants without facial features are the 'gatekeepers' of the temple, and they are the ones who guard the gate of truth in the dark cave.

And the people in those dungeons were all temple criminals, slaves and heretics.

They exist entirely as sacrifices.

Because of being imprisoned in the dungeon for a long time, these prisoners have lost their human appearance, and some of them can no longer even see that they were once alone.

These living sacrifices were driven into a metal room next to the Gate of Truth by the gatekeepers. There was no yelling or begging for mercy. Most of these sacrifices were mentally disturbed and could not even feel fear.

The next moment, the tall gatekeeper began to stir a metal wheel, and then the metal room just now began to make a sound like a meat grinder.

It wasn't until this time that the screams from inside could be heard.

Seeing this, Tang An also felt his scalp tingle. This is a living sacrifice. Those sacrifices were crushed by steel and turned into flesh and blood. These things are the 'keys' to open the door of truth.

You can see the blood flowing out from there flowing out along the grooves, and then quickly going up along the vein-like grooves on the Gate of Truth, going up in a way that violates the laws of physics, dyeing the entire Gate of Truth red.

The door of truth at this moment is full of blood.

The next moment, there was a strange vibration from the door of truth.

It was as if something was pushing the door on the other side of the door.

Archbishop Devin was kneeling on the ground at this moment, and those huge gatekeepers were also kneeling on the ground respectfully, as if they were welcoming their supreme gods.

Tang An didn't need to kneel down.

Because he is the holder of the sword of faith.

The sword of faith represents the highest god on this side. In short, the status of this sword is higher than that of the ancient god who opened the door of truth.

So he doesn't need to salute.

Even the other party should salute him.

Under the huge vibration, the door of truth was pushed open a crack from the inside to the outside.

Just a seam.

However, this gap is also two or three meters wide, enough for several people to walk in side by side.

And from that crack, a thick ink-like blackness seeped out. It is hard to imagine what it is. Besides, you can see that on the edge of the door, there are countless hands grabbing the door panel, which seems to be these The door of truth pushed open by the eccentric hand.

Tang An took a deep breath.

At this time, he had to put all his eggs in one basket. This was an opportunity, and Tang An had his insurance measures. If he really encountered a fatal situation, he would use the extractor to leave immediately.

Regardless of whether it is the ancient gods or the space within the Gate of Truth, it is still within the man-made space, and as long as it is within the man-made space, the extractor can work.

This is Tang An's biggest reliance, otherwise, he would not take this risk. It is no exaggeration to say that his current rating is only at the lion level, even at the unicorn level, or even the highest dragon level. Entering the door of truth is also a narrow escape, it is extremely risky, and you may die inside if you are not careful.

After all, the Gate of Truth is filled with the scariest ancient god-level existences in World 16.

At this moment, Tang An could feel the excitement and trembling from the sword of faith.

Obviously, the owner of the eyeball on the Sword of Faith is behind this door.

Tang An glanced at the German archbishop kneeling on the ground, then at the pious gatekeepers kneeling on the ground, then walked towards the door of truth, and walked in through the gap.
