They all call me Great Master-Chapter 963 - 940: Door and Thunder!_2
Thus, the passage here was completely paved with the lives of pirates.
Even after some tidying up, the lingering scent of blood still made ordinary people nauseous.
Fortunately, Arthur was not an ordinary person.
The people around were also accustomed to living on the edge.
Even Matilda showed no change in expression.
Soon, from an entrance hidden behind a large rock, the group descended straight down—there were no steps, just a soft ladder made of rope.
Knowing everything in advance from 'Vest', Arthur stepped into the void and walked downward.
As he descended step by step, he avoided three false passages and accurately entered the correct one.
This scene left the clueless pirates looking at each other in confusion.
Matilda also blinked.
"If he wishes, the master can know everything."
'Horton' said this.
These words made the pirates secretly curl their lips.
They speculated that Arthur must have used some secret technique.
But Matilda believed it.
Moreover, it sparked her imagination.
'If he wishes, he can know everything?
Isn't this almost like a god?
He's clearly not a god, so he...
Huh?!
Wait, could he be?'
Matilda locked onto Arthur's identity and subconsciously looked at 'Horton', mouthing Arthur's name.
'Horton' nodded with a smile.
Matilda was stunned.
'Horton' smiled at me.
Did I move him?
The sense of joy made Matilda's heart leap, and then she thought of some long-prepared matters, and immediately, a blush crept up her cheeks.
Arthur paid no more attention to the lady.
He withdrew his gaze from 'Vest', letting 'Vest' move on its own, and his attention was fully captured by the final door of the laboratory ahead.
The surroundings of the laboratory had already been searched by 'Vest'.
There was nothing of true value.
This was the end—
The [Hercules' Key] obtained from the cane appeared in Arthur's hand.
The young spirit medium did not walk towards the door, but let the [Hand of Void] insert the [Hercules' Key] into the keyhole, giving it a slight twist.
Click!
With a crisp sound, the laboratory door opened.
The [Hand of Void] went straight in.
After confirming there was no danger, Arthur finally stepped inside.
The core position of the laboratory was even emptier than imagined.
Or to be precise, the core position of the entire laboratory contained nothing but a door.
Indeed, just a door.
A single-leafed, wood-grain adorned door stood in the empty room.
On the door facing the lab entrance side, there was a yellowing parchment affixed, with three crooked words written on it—Invitation.
Upon seeing those crooked words, Arthur was certain.
This invitation was written personally by Hercules.
In Arthur's memory, no one's handwriting could be uglier than this lord's.
As for the 'God of Potions', 'God of Alchemy' using such a simple invitation?
Typical.
That was indeed their style.
Arthur took the invitation off, and upon opening it, a series of crooked handwriting began to appear—
To the unfamiliar visitor:
This gift, though I intended it for some old friends.
However, going there is not a great choice for my old friends, yet extremely tempting.
So, I placed it here.
If my old friends see this and want to go, you decide for yourselves.
If it's an unfamiliar visitor...
When you can walk the earth with the true 'Divine Name', open it then.
Written by Hercules during the Silver Opening Year
...
Reading that crooked content.
'Tsk, could it be?'
Arthur had a suspicion.
In the next moment, he tentatively used his finger to touch that door—
[Name: Helk's Gate]
[Type: Special Items]
[Quality: Ⅸ]
[Attributes: 1, Shuttle (2/3); 2, Solid]
[Remarks: From the fragmentary whispers of true history, seeking a part of the real world before him, Hercules decided to venture into the 'True World'.
He wanted to see the differences between the true world and the 'Shadow World' he resided in.
Thus, he gathered materials and created this door.
Afterwards, he experimented personally.
The outcome was, of course, successful.
Furthermore, he found an even simpler method.
Thus, he left this door behind.]
...
[Shuttle: Can use the door to go to the 'True World'.]
[Solid: Special materials and Hercules' Alchemy make it exceptionally solid, even in the presence of Divine Spirits, it remains unharmed]
(Note 1: During shuttle, more creatures cannot be brought in, only the holder.)
(Note 2: The 'Door' is special, most charging methods do not work, it can only slowly recover with the sun)
(Note 3: Once the 'Door' is opened for shuttle, it remains in place but can be taken away by newcomers, when the door is removed, the shuttle user who enters the 'True World' will lose their coordinates and cannot return the same way)
(Note 4: Especially crafted by Hercules, the 'Door' can be stored in space equipment of appropriate size)
...
'Indeed, facing the truth of history, with the personality of Master Hercules, he will definitely explore it!
Moreover...
Apart from Master Hercules, the rest of them may also have gone.
'True World'?
What would it look like there?'
Even before seeing the attributes of [Hercules' Gate], Arthur was already speculating.
Now, this speculation is confirmed.
Arthur stood in front of the door, his mind couldn't help but imagine the 'True World'.
However, soon, the young Spirit Medium shook his head.
'The True World' is too far for him.
He has not reached the level of the real 'Divine Name' walking the earth.
Moreover, he has some extremely urgent matters to address.
'Old Lion'!
And...
Phew!
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Arthur hid the name 'Death', not wanting the other party to detect more.
Arthur raised his hand and placed [Hercules' Gate] into the [Bracelet of Carmen].
And in the instant he completed this action——
Boom!
Thunder!
Thunder resounding throughout the heavens and earth!
Arthur immediately turned around, looking overhead.
The young Spirit Medium's eyes seemed to pierce through layers of rock, seeing the long-awaited moment.
"Has it started?"
Murmuring, the young Spirit Medium instantly disappeared from the original spot.
...
'Old Lion' stepped out of the only suite at the 'Lotus Leaf Hotel', holding a red apple in his hand.
'Old Lion' did not bite into the apple.
He only held the apple close to his nose, smelling it delicately.
The unique fragrance of the apple brought a smile to the eyes of this Inner Bay Lord.
"Finally ripe."
'Old Lion' said softly.
Such words made Sapir, who was guarding outside the door, scratch his head.
This hotel servant didn't know what the big figure was talking about.
He only knew the other party had paid a bag of gold coins to rent the hotel's only suite, and would only stay for three days; although it required him to serve 24 hours, what did that amount of gold coins mean anyway?
"Sir, would you like to extend your stay?"
"No.
Thank you for your service over the past three days."
Facing Sapir's hopeful look, 'Old Lion' waved his hand with a smile.
Sapir was certainly disappointed.
Nevertheless, Sapir did not slack off because of it.
"I'll call you a carriage.
Where are you headed?
By the way, you're always welcome at the Lotus Leaf Hotel."
Saying that, Sapir was about to go downstairs.
"Thank you."
'Old Lion' said and stopped Sapir, placing a thin book into Sapir's hands.
"Some swordsmanship, combat techniques.
And some breathing methods.
Feel free to browse, think of it as your tip."
'Old Lion' said very casually.
Sapir was about to decline immediately.
Now, Sapir was no longer a novice; he knew the value of so-called breathing methods, but before he could speak, he saw his sister Didian constantly signaling him.
That was to make him comply.
Sapir scratched his head, choosing to trust his sister.
"Okay, thank you."
Sapir bowed respectfully.
But as he straightened up again, the old man in front of him was already gone.
Meanwhile, his sister Didian snatched the book from him and threw it into the fireplace.
The whole person was smeared with salt, powder, and oil.
That was [Demon-Repelling Holy Salt], [Evil-Repelling Brick Powder], and [Barrier Oil].
"Sister?"
Sapir was stunned.
Didian gritted her teeth——
"Damn bastard struck by lightning!"
