Challenger Room
Chapter 7 - Last challenge
"Maybe someone should hold all the items, Felps give me the diamond," Marquez said, putting the skull on his head.
Felps approached Marquez to deliver the diamond, but as he approached Marquez, he noticed that the skull was cracking between his eyes, coming right in front of the mask, he placed the diamond in the new hole of the diamond-shaped mascara.
"Well we can light two symbols, now there are two more, after all the cross must be this black cross here, it is not" walking to the cross, Luiz puts his hand on one of the red points of the cross, but to his surprise, one of the X began to shine weakly and not the cross.
"Try the other side to see if the other X lights up" frowning, Felps looks at the cross as he asks Luiz. It seems he already had an idea of what they would have to do.
Following the orders of Felps, Luiz puts his hand on the other end of the cross and as he thought, the other X began to shine weakly. Confirming that the ends of the cross connected the X, the three gathered in front of the cross to think what they should do.
Marquez who had his skull still on his head, when he came near the cross he saw that the book on the altar had a red glow that was not there before, walking to the book, saw that in the left part of the book was an image of a bone skull equals what he was wearing and below the words: follow the darkness, on the right had four different symbols that seemed to serve no purpose.
In wasting time with the symbols, the three of them focused on the phrase follow the darkness, reading this sentence the three friends looked at each other and without saying anything else they scattered around the room to put out all the torches.
Then Marquez, with his skull on his head, saw that on the pillar where his skull had lights coming from four points, running his fingers on the stones, he saw that a trail remained for a while and then disappeared.
Remembering the four points in the book Marquez transcribed them on the illuminated stones, after transcribing the last symbol all the torches rekindled and heard a sound coming from the skeleton that was in the corner of the room.
Turning to look at the skeleton they saw that it was different from the way it was left, but the three of them paid attention to it, but rather the parchment the skeleton was holding in their hands.
Taking the scroll from the skeleton, when he opened it, he had a drawing of a hand with each finger having a geometric shape drawn at the tip, looking at it the three friends turned their attention to the rings that were attached to the altar, it seemed that the number of each ring corresponded to the number of sides of the geometric shapes.
"Okay, let's get this over with, cut my fingers with the dagger and put them in the rings," Marquez said as he took the dagger and handed it to Felps.
Taking Marquez's dagger, Felps said nothing to try to stop him and cut the three fingers corresponding to the number on the rings.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" screaming in pain as he held his bleeding hand, Marquez kneels and Luiz takes a piece of his pants to curl in Marquez's hand, stopping the bleeding.
Felps who dropped the dagger on the floor, took the cut fingers to put in the holes, putting the last finger, the holes close and a compartment opens on the altar, inside there was a ritual dagger and another long nail, picking up the dagger they realize that the closer to one's heart, the brighter the cross.
"Looks like we have everything we can get out of here, right?" asked Felps, as he gave a complicated look to Marquez and Luiz.
