Chapter 469 – Believers Gathering

　　The Seventh Seat’s brow furrowed slightly as he sneered, “Worthy of being the First Seat, this frame really isn’t small ……”

　　”So, what exactly is our action this time?” The Ninth Seat skipped over the topic about the First Seat and continued, “Mobilizing five [Believers] in one breath is quite rare.”

　　”Is it? Why do I remember that there was another operation not too long ago that was even larger than this?” The seventh seat spoke quietly, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Shen Qingzhu, “Seven believers attacked the fasting house, and six of the believers with the top seats all died, leaving one newcomer to come back …… alive don’t you guys think it’s strange?”

　　Shen Qingzhu’s gaze met the seventh seat and his face clouded over.

　　”What do you mean by that?” The ninth seat spoke in a cold voice, “Are you questioning Lord Raving?”

　　”No, how dare I question Lord Raving.” The seventh seat shook his head, “I just find it strange, ever since this little friend joined us, we [Believers] have lost more members in a year than we did in the previous twenty years, so maybe, this kid is a calamity, and whoever gets close to him will die.”

　　”Really? Then how come I’m still alive?” The ninth seat walked in front of the seventh seat, his eyes were cold, and he spoke morosely, “Woman, if you dare to say this bullshit again, do you believe that I will tear your mouth apart first?”

　　”Just by you?”

　　”Enough!” The third seat’s voice suddenly rang out, and the atmosphere of the entire room stagnated.

　　He walked between the two, his drooping eyelids slightly raised, “This is not the place for you to fight internally, if you want to fight, wait for the end of the mission and fight however you want, here, just give me an honest day’s work!”

　　The ninth and seventh seats fell silent at the same time.

　　”All follow me.” The Third Seat turned around and walked towards the crumbling steps in the corner of the room, leading to the underground.

　　The Seventh Seat, Ninth Seat, and Twelfth Seat followed closely behind, and Shen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and gazed at the back of the Seventh Seat for a long time before taking a step, adorning the last of the crowd to step onto the descending steps.

　　From the number of steps, several people at least three floors deep into the ground, both sides of the steps are empty, dark, only the seventh seat’s high heel sound echoed in it, this should be a huge underground space.

　　Several people walked to the end of the steps, the third seat reached out and gently waved his hand, the weak light lit up from the darkness, illuminating a corner of the underground.

　　When Shen Qingzhu saw the scene in front of him, his entire body froze in place.

　　Only to see that in the dim light, the outline of a huge gray-black altar was outlined, this altar was about the size of a soccer field, quietly lying in the center of the underground space, its surface was covered with cracks, like a work of art that had been broken and then reassembled.

　　In the upper right corner of the altar, there was still a large amount of masonry missing, but it had now been patched up by some yellowish-brown unidentified objects, which looked eerie.

　　”This is ……” The ninth seat saw this altar in front of him, and a shocked look appeared in his eyes.

　　”The Altar of the Underworld God.” The third seat slowly spoke, “This is a divine item from beyond the mists, after being restored it became what it is now, our task is to instill our own spiritual power into the altar to completely awaken it ……”

　　”Instill spiritual energy?” The seventh seat frowned slightly, “Such a simple task requires so many of us to accomplish?”

　　The third seat glanced at her, “Do you know what is meant by a divine item? To completely utilize its power, it needs to be catalyzed with divine power, and if you rely purely on your spiritual power to awaken this altar, even if it’s just a simple matter of energizing it, the amount of spiritual power required is astronomical ……

　　Even if it were the six of us, pouring spiritual energy into it day and night, it would still take at least two months to barely energize it.”

　　”So, for the next two months, we all need to spend them in this hellish place?” The twelfth seat’s face was a bit ugly.

　　”That’s right.” The third seat nodded and added, “This is Lord Raving’s order.”

　　Hearing the last sentence, the Twelfth Seat, who had wanted to say something, could only snort coldly and swallow his words again.

　　Shen Qingzhu frowned as he surveyed the altar, not knowing what he was thinking, “What will happen after awakening this altar?”

　　”At that time, you will know.”

　　Shen Qingzhu continued to ask, “Since this is a divine item in the mists, how did it appear underground in Lin Tang City? With such a large size, it’s simply impossible to cross the border silently and then transport it here, right?”

　　”This is not a question you should be concerned about.” The third seat had no intention of answering this question.

　　Shen Qingzhu’s brows tightened a few more points as he didn’t get an answer to his two consecutive questions, and while everyone else was spreading out to survey the altar, he also stepped away to observe around the altar.

　　Then, as if he had discovered something, he gently squatted down and his fingertips lightly pinched on the ground.

　　Clay?

　　Shen Qingzhu looked at the rub of dirt on his fingertips and was slightly stunned, looking up and looking around, he realized that the ground around him was littered with scattered dirt residue, only that it wasn’t that conspicuous under the dim light.

　　This should be the manor’s original basement, the ground is paved with floor tiles, where did so much dirt come from?

　　Shen Qingzhu pondered for a moment, stood up and began to walk towards the dim surroundings.

　　The lights in this basement had been damaged for the most part due to age and disrepair, the entire underground space was only illuminated by fragmented lights, the remaining large space was immersed in darkness, Shen Qingzhu rubbed his fingertips lightly, a small group of flames appeared in the palm of his hand, illuminating the dim surroundings.

　　He kept walking in one direction and soon reached the edge of the basement, touching the walls filled with dust and cobwebs.

　　”There’s a wind?” Shen Qingzhu’s eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the direction of the flames pulsing between his palms change.

　　After pondering for a moment, he slowly moved forward along the direction of the air flow ……

　　Eventually, he arrived before the other wall opposite him, which was constructed in the same way as the other walls, but strangely, in the center of this wall, it was covered with a huge black cover cloth, which was about ten meters long and covered the wall tightly.

　　The corners of the cloth shook gently, and it seemed that there was wind flowing through it.

　　Shen Qingzhu stared at this piece of cloth for a long time, reached out and pulled the end of the cloth, and forcefully pulled down!

　　Prick-la-!

　　The cloth should fall, a big hole with a radius of more than four meters was exposed in the air, the masonry around the hole was uneven, not like artificial excavation, some breeze blew out from inside the hole, the dark deep hole had been extending deep into the ground, not knowing where it led to.

　　Shen Qingzhu looked at this big hole, the color of doubt in his eyes intensified.

　　Just at this moment, a hand hit his shoulder.

　　Shen Qingzhu jerked his head back, only to see that the Third Seat was quietly standing behind him, gazing at this large hole in front of him, calmly saying:

　　”Too much curiosity is not a good thing …… newcomer.”
