  Chapter 128 The Mystery in the Temple
  As time went on, only the footsteps of the three Vals were left on the hot road. Although it was not clear, it could travel far in this dry and empty place.

  "Hey, look! This is the sign of our people. It seems that the destination is not far away." Val suddenly saw something on the roadside and shouted happily.

  "Shut up! Val. Do you want everyone to know our mission?" The captain scolded again, but there was a bit of joy in his tone.

  Although I can endure it, walking on such an empty and hot road, just the sun above my head can make people feel depressed.

  Now that they were very close to their destination, it proved that their boring journey was almost over.

  "Rest under the shade of the tree for ten minutes, and then continue on the road. Try to get to the temple before the sun sets today, and then explore the way at night." The leader first glanced at the still hot sun above his head, and then looked away. Said the shadow of a tree in the distance.

  When Val and the other person heard the order, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and each chose a shaded place to rest.

  At night, a temple somewhere in southern India.

  In the dead of night, some people wearing dark clothes quietly appeared near the temple. They first wandered around the temple and then headed to different areas in a tacit understanding.

  After inquiring about the nearby terrain and situation, they gathered next to the temple and looked into the temple.

  Barty Crouch's order was to inquire about information near the temple. Since it was not forbidden to enter the temple, the inside of the temple was naturally within the scope of inquiry.

  As the largest temple in the Indian state, this temple named Padmanabhaswamy naturally has its own defense force.

  Especially when there are so many believers in India, donations from believers are also a considerable amount of wealth.

  In order to protect this wealth from malicious prying eyes, the temple's defense force is quite strong. Even in the dark night, there are two patrol teams holding torches.

  But it is obvious that these guardian forces, all composed of Indian civilians, are definitely no match for the Royal Security Intelligence Service.

  In the corner where these monks and guards did not notice, several skilled intelligence officers slipped in without anyone noticing.

  The temple is very large in area. It is not a complete building, but consists of several unrelated buildings forming a huge temple.

  After exploring all the buildings, the intelligence officers still found nothing.

  According to their investigation, this temple is the same as other temples in India. Apart from its larger area, there are basically no other differences.

  But Director Barty Crouch wouldn't entertain them, would he? Australia is so far away from India, and everyone believes that their purpose of coming here is definitely not as simple as exploring an ordinary temple.

  "Hey! Here, look here!"

  The people who were searching immediately heard this obvious cry and hurried towards the source of the sound.

  This is a somewhat dilapidated-looking building located in the hinterland of the temple. Unlike other grand-looking buildings around it, this building is old and in disrepair and doesn't look like it's been used very often.

  Even the path in front of the building was overgrown with weeds, and it was obvious that not many people came here.

  Everyone looked at each other and felt that there must be something weird about this building. Is it really normal for a dilapidated building to appear in such a magnificent temple, with almost no one coming?
  You know, there are countless believers in this temple during the day, and most of the buildings are packed with people.

  Under such circumstances, such a dilapidated building that is inaccessible to people seems a bit special.

  Everyone sneaked in quietly and discovered the difference between this place and other places. Most of the temple's defense forces are on the periphery, that is, the patrols holding torches outside.

  There is basically no protective power in the temple, which is why everyone's exploration went so smoothly.

  But now, there are actually two guards standing guard in such a dilapidated building. Although the guards are almost asleep from sleep, they cannot deny that there must be something important hidden in this building.

  Because they didn't want to alert the enemy, everyone chose to retreat after a simple exchange.

  I have almost found out the news about the temple tonight, and I have discovered something weird in the temple.

  The next step is to wait for Barty Crouch's next order, and then decide whether to go inside that building.

  What all the intelligence personnel did not expect was that the purpose of this operation was really the building in the temple.

  Although I missed a good opportunity to go in, I did have a clearer understanding of the situation around and inside the temple.

  Barty Crouch made a prompt decision, and after gathering everyone, decided to re-enter the temple that night.

  Barty Crouch knew what was in the temple, so he was well prepared.

  Except for a small number of people who continued to explore inside the temple, the remaining people looked for opportunities to deal with the patrol guards outside the temple and look after the people inside the temple.

  As long as all the guards outside are eliminated, the people inside the temple can transport it to the door and load it after finding the specific treasure.

  It's still the same dilapidated building, and there are still two guards standing and about to fall asleep.

  This action was very decisive. Two intelligence officers sneaked behind the guards, took out their daggers and struck them hard. The two guards fell down like cartilage.

  The intelligence personnel had investigated and found that there were basically no guards inside the temple except for these two people.

  The temple uses most of its guard forces to stand guard and patrol outside, which is why everyone dared to kill these two guards directly.

  With a look from Barty Crouch, everyone entered the building one after another.

  Inside the building are statues of gods one after another. Because no one has come in for a long time, the statues are already covered with dust.

  "Separately check each other, and gather immediately if you find the situation." Barty Crouch ordered.

  Everyone began to inspect the building, tapping and touching the statue, trying not to miss any detail.

  Boom, boom, boom!
  An intelligence officer discovered something was wrong and quickly whispered: "Director! This place is empty!"

  In an instant, busy people gathered and looked at where the person who made the sound was pointing.

  Boom, boom, boom!
  Barty Crouch's eyes lit up and he immediately ordered: "Pry it open!"

   First update, I wish everyone a happy New Year's Eve!
