Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 291: Chapter 289: Evil Ritual

Enter the sight.

It’s a spacious and empty church.

It kind of resembles a place used by Western churches for worship.

Except.

At this moment, the interior of the church is completely decayed.

Even the two rows of statues standing on the sides have all collapsed, leaving only a pile of stone bases and a few broken pillars, with their colors entirely faded.

However, what surprised Lin You a little was.

Despite this, the layout inside the church is still very complete, with no signs of any damage.

Even those architectural ornaments have naturally weathered into puffs of dust.

Nothing at all…

This was the conclusion Lin You reached at first glance.

This made him feel a bit strange.

Since there was nothing in the church, why were these two Leader Demons still stationed outside?

It’s really strange no matter how you think about it.

After observing outside for a while longer and confirming there was no danger.

Lin You temporarily recalled all the plants to his Territory, leaving only the smaller Lingxi and a few Elf Masters by his side.

Then he gathered his courage and passed through the gap, walking into the church.

Suddenly, his view became expansive.

The inside of the church was even larger than he imagined, and he could vaguely see the faith murals on the walls.

However, everything exuded an eerie feeling, making one naturally alert.

“Hmm? What’s that?”

Suddenly, Lin You’s gaze fell next to the largest statue at the deepest part of the church.

Because of the angle of view earlier, he didn’t see it.

Now, after walking inside, he suddenly discovered that there was an entrance leading underground!

Could it be a passage used for emergency escape by the church?

Or a place used for secret meetings?

Lin You was filled with suspicion.

Getting closer to take a look, it was indeed as he thought, with collapsed rubble next to the entrance.

It seemed the floor of this secret entrance had collapsed due to long-term erosion, exposing the entrance. Otherwise, if you didn’t look carefully, it would be truly hard to notice this secret passage here.

It was quite obvious.

Those two Leader Demons must have been guarding this passage without a doubt.

Only it wasn’t clear what was hidden inside, as a wisp of black air emanated around, making it impossible to see the situation inside clearly.

Could it be the forbidden place of the church’s nuns and monks?

Or some bishop’s secret chamber for keeping x-slaves?

Various guesses flashed through Lin You’s mind, imagining the scene in the church before any mishap occurred.

Initially, he should not have ventured into such a location rashly.

But having come this far, he felt a little unwilling not to go inside.

What if there were indeed some treasures hidden inside? Wouldn’t he miss it in vain?

Sometimes, treasures are meant for the bold, and after all, he had Random Teleportation, so at worst he could just teleport away directly.

“Let’s do it!”

Finally, Lin You decided to explore this underground passage, beginning preparations on the side.

Since the passage was quite small, only accommodating five or six people to pass through simultaneously, large-sized Species like the Cyan Rattan Cyan Gang Demon King Dragon were abandoned by him.

Apart from the few species around him, he only summoned a Lantern Grass for lighting and a Big Cannon for emergency firepower.

Additionally, he used a Fierce Sunflower for emergency exorcism and two Cactus Boxers, endowed with the Unyielding Will Secret Treasure, to lead the way.

Thus, a temporary underground exploration team was formed.

It was fortunate he had many species types, capable of finding suitable species for any situation.

If it had been a Lord with fewer species types, he would’ve been stuck at this entrance.

Can’t exactly fight with just a torch, can you?

“Let’s go in.”

Having prepared adequately, Lin You proceeded through the entrance, protected by the plants, slowly walking into the underground passage.

Before long, he vanished into the deep, dark entrance.

Simultaneously.

In the sky outside the church.

Several Lords suddenly appeared, looking surprisingly at the church established at the foot of the mountain before them.

“Strange, I remember this place should have been a barren mountain before. How did a church suddenly appear here?”

“I also remember there wasn’t any building like this around here.”

“Could it be a Hidden Secret Realm or mission?”

“A Hidden Secret Realm? Wouldn’t that mean there are some incredible rewards?”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go in and take a look first.”

Saying this, the group excitedly landed on the ground, cautiously approaching the courtyard outside the church.

…

Meanwhile.

After passing through the underground entrance, Lin You quickly arrived at a stone-brick tunnel.

To his surprise.

This underground tunnel was wider than he imagined, and in disarray.

Everywhere were collapsed artifacts, looking like a scene of chaos had occurred, with large blood stains still smeared on the walls.

It starkly contrasted with the clean church outside.

Could there have been some disturbance when the disaster happened?

“Illuminate.”

Lin You dared not be careless, immediately having the Lantern Grass activate the Fluorescence skill, illuminating the entire tunnel before continuing forward.

“Whoosh!”

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of something breaking through the air.

A dark shadow suddenly shot out, flying towards him from the darkness far ahead.

“Watch out!”

Lin You was startled, hurriedly activating the Power of Rule, condensing a Mirror Wall at the tunnel entrance.

The next second.

With a muffled “bang,” the mirror wall cracked in response.

Judging from the power, it’s at least a Tier Eight Demon.

But precisely because of this obstruction, the plants reacted instantly, launching a massive attack toward the black shadow.

What Lin You didn’t expect was.

Faced with such a dense attack, the black shadow actually flashed and jumped directly onto the wall.

Then, it rushed past two Cactus Boxers along the ceiling towards him.

Fortunately, Lingxi reacted in time.

Just as the shadow was about to charge at him, the magic staff swung, and a wave of thorns precisely entangled the shadow.

Then, two consecutive shots rang out.

Two streaks of red firelight swept through, piercing the shadow’s body with a “puff,” instantly halting its struggle.

[Killed Tier Eight Demon Sewn Abomination, gained 999 Magic Energy.]

It really was a Tier Eight Demon.

Lin You realized internally.

It seems this underground tunnel isn’t as safe as he imagined.

Involuntarily, his gaze fell on the corpse of the defeated demon, marveling slightly in surprise.

It was a bizarre crawling species, humanoid yet not human.

Although it had a human-like head, it possessed eight limbs and could crawl on the wall like a spider.

It looked somewhat like a monster researched in secret scientific experiments.

[Name: Sewn Abomination]

[Race: Undead]

[Level: Tier Eight (SS-level)]

[Power: 2000 (+1800)]

[Constitution: 1900 (+1710)]

[Agility: 2450 (+2205)]

[Spirit: 1900 (+1710)]

[Skills: Stealth, Tearing Bite, Blood Poison]

[Chaos: All attributes increase by 90%]

[Introduction: A monster born from an evil ritual, incredibly fast, prefers to wander in the dark.]

What a creature, its agility is nearly maxed out.

No wonder it’s so fast.

Even the chaos pollution level has reached SS-level, its attributes are higher than his Multiplication Entity, looks like he needs to be careful.

“Let’s go, keep moving forward.”

He whispered to the plants beside him, stepping over the Sewn Abomination’s body, heading deeper in.

As he passed by the Sewn Abomination’s corpse, Lin You also noticed the demon’s blood was highly corrosive, eroding a deep pit into the floor.

Who knows what ritual created such a monster.

Without thinking much, he continued forward with the plants.

As they progressed, the underground tunnel became increasingly complex.

Almost every turn led to several directions.

It was like an underground maze, with many rooms resembling dungeons along the way.

However, almost all the dungeon bars were destroyed, or intact but filled with piles of bones.

Along the way, they encountered more and more mutated creatures.

Greatly slowing down the team’s pace.

They could only fight and explore simultaneously, gradually approaching the deepest part of the tunnel.

Meanwhile.

The lords who arrived later also made it through the corpse-littered courtyard into the cathedral, exploring everywhere.

“Look! There’s an underground tunnel over there!”

Soon, one of the lords found the tunnel entrance beside a statue, exclaiming.

“Be careful, there was a battle here just now, obviously someone got here before us.”

“Those corpses outside look fresh, that person must have gone inside here, right?”

“Could there really be something good inside?”

“Very likely, why don’t we go in and have a look too?”

“Agreed.”

With that, they prepared briefly outside, then entered the underground tunnel with their species.

Soon, they saw the mutated corpse that Lin You had left, their expressions turning somber.

“Sure enough, someone got here before us.”

“Judging by the corpse, the battle was recent.”

“Isn’t that perfect? We can sneak in behind and save a lot of effort.”

“Heh, yeah, maybe we can even play the role of a mantis stalked by a sparrow.”

“Come on, let’s catch up quickly.”

Without more words, they stepped over the corpse and continued to delve deeper into the passage, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

…

Lin You didn’t know there were people following behind him.

At this moment, having slain mutated creatures along the way, he reached the deepest part of the passage, outside a giant underground cathedral.

“This is…”

With just one glance, Lin You was stunned by the scene, his pupils contracting sharply.

What did he see?

A terrifying nest resembling an alien beast!

Everywhere in sight. there were dried blood and liquid sludge, piled haphazardly on the surrounding walls and ceiling, forming massive holes.

In those holes, a multitude of mutated creatures gathered, constantly roaming.

But this wasn’t what shocked Lin You the most.

What surprised him even more was at the center of the underground cathedral, on an array painted in blood, placed a giant blue crystal.

Inside the crystal, a person was sealed.

A girl, no more than ten years old!
