Chapter 178(1/3)
The Libra
Until Wang Wenhua and Robert Li completely passed through the exhibition hall...
At that time, what appeared in front of them was a staircase made of dark brown solid wood.
On one side it winds towards here, on the other side it winds towards the east...
When they reached the stairs, Robert Li walked directly towards the east stairs without any hesitation.
It’s different from the bright and spacious lobby on the first floor!
From the outside, the light inside is very dim, and it seems like there is no sunlight all year round.
Seeing Robert, Li walked directly to the east stairs, and Wang Wenhua quickly followed.
"Tap...tap..."
"Crunch... crunch..."
"Tap...tap..."
"Crunch... crunch..."
The solid wood stairs, which are obviously showing their age, make a creaking sound when people step on them.
As the two of them went deeper and deeper eastward, the light in front of them became weaker and weaker...
The further east they went, the darker things became in front of them.
The light is getting farther and farther away from them, and the darkness is gradually covering them...
"Tap...tap..."
"Crunch... crunch..."
After they walked up dozens of stairs, a dark brown wooden door hidden in the darkness appeared in front of them...
That wooden door looked very old. Through the subtle light, Wang Wenhua could faintly see some old runes on the dark brown wooden door...
But because the runes were very ancient, Wang Wenhua could not understand their meaning for a while.
…
"Tap...tap..."
Walking to the wooden door, Robert Li slowly took out a bronze key from his pocket, and then he carefully opened the wooden door.
"Creak...click..."
With a click, the ancient wooden door was slowly opened...
Immediately afterwards, Robert Lee gently held the handle of the wooden door and slowly pulled it.
"Huh...huh..."
The wooden door was opened, and a small cloud of smoke and dust was thrown up.
Obviously, the smoke and dust in front of me represents that the wooden door has not been opened for a long time...
…
After a few breaths, the entire wooden door was completely opened by Robert Lee.
Then, in Wang Wenhua's eyes, a hall shrouded in darkness slowly appeared...
"Follow him in, Mr. Wang..."
"What I need is right inside!"
Robert Li said to Wang Wenhua solemnly, and then took the lead in taking steps and walked straight into the wooden door...
Seeing this, Wang Wenhua immediately followed and walked in.
…
After walking into the wooden door, Robert and Li groped carefully on the dark wall for a while...
After a few breaths...
With a "pop" sound, dark yellow lights lit up in front of their eyes.
As the basement room in front of him became brighter, Wang Wenhua noticed that the furnishings in the basement room...
The basement room in front of me seems to be quite large, at least a hundred square meters.
In the basement room, there are many shelves-like things made of solid wood.
They take up most of the space in the east room!
And among those shelves, Wang Wenhua saw a lot of antique-like things...
Some of them were old kerosene lamps, some were wine glasses, and some were objects whose purpose Wang Wenhua could not understand.
But it is obvious that the things on the shelves are all very old and have been around for some time.
…
Seeing Wang Wenhua next to him, who was looking at the things on the shelves, Robert Li chuckled rather mysteriously, and then slowly explained.
"None of the things in there...were given to him by gods..."
"Each one of them...is a vessel with divine power!"
After hearing Robert Li's explanation, Wang Wenhua suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment and said with a little surprise.
"I see!"
"No wonder every one of them looks weathered!"
Hearing Wang Wenhua's words, Robert Li chuckled and nodded.
"No...the time they have been around...has not been short..."
"The earliest vessels among them were brought from the east by gods hundreds of years ago during the Middle Ages..."
"Since that time, the gods have been out to save the world, fighting against the darkness and the demons that exist in the world..."
After hearing Robert Li's explanation, Wang Wenhua nodded thoughtfully...
After a few breaths, Wang Wenhua turned his head slightly and asked Robert Li with a hint of doubt.
"Mr. Li... do you hear what you mean..."
"In that world, a demon appeared in the world a long time ago?"
"Then...what exactly are they like?"
"Those demons...are they always by their side?"
Hearing Wang Wenhua's question, Robert Li suddenly showed a rather mysterious smile...
"hehe……"
After he chuckled twice, he slowly opened his mouth and explained to Wang Wenhua.
"No...the devil...is always by their side..."
"And Mr. Wang, I don't know..."
"I should have come into contact with demons in the world more than once before..."
"The gods once descended to the east and sent oracles..."
"According to His oracle..."
"In their world, when humans first appeared, demons appeared with them..."
"Those terrifying demons have always been surrounding humans..."
"They will confuse humans and make them greedy and jealous!"
"In the history of mankind, there have been countless wars, but they were provoked by the existence of demons!"
"Those demons learned to disguise themselves a long time ago so that humans cannot see their true face..."
Having said that, Robert Li paused slightly, and then glanced at Wang Wenhua with a meaningful look...
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang..."
"It won't take long...you will know the true identities of those demons..."
"By then, maybe I will be shocked! Haha!"
…
Hearing that, Wang Wenhua looked at Robert and Li with a somewhat profound look, and his heart jumped slightly for no reason!
He looked confused at first, smiled bitterly twice, and then slowly replied.
"Listen to what you said, Mr. Li..."
"It's as if he has been exposed to the devil a long time ago..."
Upon hearing Wang Wenhua's reply, Robert Li chuckled rather mysteriously, and then slowly explained.
To be continued...
