American Exorcism Male God-Chapter 275: The Conspiracy of the Ring of Destruction
In the depths of the inverted Pyramid.
Robert walked through the dark corridors, exuding an air of leisure.
The traps along the way couldn’t harm him; he was enveloped by a thin layer of pale red film, and those terrifying Arrays were dispelled by an invisible force.
If Xu Yi had witnessed this scene, he definitely would have been too surprised to speak.
The higher-ups in Boston went to great lengths to save him, yet Robert faced no danger at all. Entering the bizarre inverted Pyramid was like returning to his own backyard.
"The Puppet has been destroyed, our actor the Golden Scorpion has taken its bow, but its mission is also complete."
A voice suddenly echoed through the corridor, a strange sound filled with the clang of metal collision.
Robert turned his head, looking up to the left, where a copper-colored Mechanical Bird was suspended in the air.
The Mechanical Bird was only palm-sized, its wings fluttering slightly, but it was clear that its ability to float in the air was not significantly related to these wings.
The back of the Mechanical Bird was hollow, with one red and two blue pointers rotating counterclockwise inside, revealing the intricately complex mechanical structure beneath.
If Xu Yi were here, he could instantly recognize the origin of the "Copper Clock Bird," its skull bearing the pattern of a door.

That was the symbol of the Ring of Destruction.
"You really guessed right, Xu Yi actually came!" Robert exclaimed to the Copper Clock Bird.
"Just basic judgment! Given your importance to Boston, they were sure to come for you, and the most assured way was, of course, to ask Xu Yi."
A human-like smugness flashed through the sapphire-like pupils of the Clock Bird.
"Without any guidance along the way, weren’t you afraid he wouldn’t find this place?" Robert was a bit puzzled.
He knew that this place was located in a Different Space, and even if he left behind the Guiding Holy Map, getting here was still a very difficult task.
"The more arrangements are made, the easier it is to expose ourselves, don’t underestimate the other party’s ability."
Robert nodded, having to admit that the other party was right, and indeed the plan had succeeded.
"When can I return to the organization?" Robert suddenly asked aloud.
"Soon! Once you’ve hollowed out everything valuable from Boston, you’ll be able to return to the organization," the Clock Bird said, landing on the backpack behind Robert to conserve energy.
As the destination was still a while away, Robert felt particularly inclined to chat.
"Is Xu Yi really that difficult to deal with? Even the Sun Golden Scripture was willing to be used as bait!"
Instead of answering directly, the Copper Clock Bird began talking about something else.
"We’ve investigated Xu Yi in the shadows, his rate of growth is too astonishing. If the Sea of Divinity hadn’t dissipated after the Twilight of the Gods, we would’ve even suspected him of being a Divine Reincarnation!"
The Clock Bird’s tone suddenly changed, "With the Havara Labyrinth, even if we can’t kill him, we can keep him quiet for a while. Recently our organization has been troubled by that group of maggots from the Ancient God Sacrificial Organization."
Robert nodded knowingly; he already had his answer.
It seemed Xu Yi was indeed very troublesome; otherwise, based on his knowledge of the organization, such "cowardly" methods would never be used.
They referred to the Ancient God Sacrificial Organization as "flies," "maggots," "cowards lurking in the shadows."
And the mockery from the Ancient God Sacrificial Organization toward them was much simpler, uniformly calling them "madmen."
As a member of the Ring of Destruction, he couldn’t help but clarify, it wasn’t mockery, but a fact... the people of the Ring of Destruction were indeed a bunch of madmen.
"Isn’t it too much of a pity to let the Sun Golden Scripture go just like that?"
Robert felt distressed thinking about the trap requiring the sacrifice of the Sun Golden Scripture.
After all, the Sun Golden Scripture and the Black Scripture of the Dead were books of the origin of Magic Arrays, even within the Ring of Destruction, they were treasures hard to come by.
"The organization has already mastered these two books, there’s nothing to regret. Moreover, I’ve left a surprise in the Sun Golden Scripture; I won’t let anyone reap the benefits so easily," the Clock Bird stated coolly.
The Clock Bird knew the saying that one cannot catch a wolf without a baited trap, and without the Sun Golden Scripture as a lure, getting Xu Yi into the Havara Labyrinth would basically be impossible.
"I hope our Mr. Xu Yi has a good experience in the Havara Labyrinth!" Robert responded nonchalantly, using it to mask his dissatisfaction.

The higher-ups in the organization had indeed researched thoroughly, but he had not even touched the Sun Golden Scripture or the Black Scripture of the Dead.
He had originally planned to request them for study upon his return to the organization, but now they were gone.
"Actually, not only the Sun Golden Scripture, we’ve also brought the Undead Black Scripture!" Clock Bird suddenly spoke up.
Robert’s eyes lit up, and he secretly thought to himself, could it be that his efforts were finally being recognized by the organization, and they specially brought the Undead Black Scripture for him to study?
But soon, his eyes dimmed.
"Next, we need your assistance to speed up the emperor’s resurrection process through the Undead Black Scripture," the brass Clock Bird said gravely.
Although Robert was disappointed, he knew he had no bargaining power and respectfully responded with a yes.
......
Xu Yi looked at the scattered remains of the Golden Scorpions ahead, his brows tightly furrowed.
They had returned to this place again, for the fifth time!
After obtaining the Sun Golden Scripture, he had wanted to leave, only to find out that this area was actually a labyrinth.
While Xu Yi’s memory and spatial abilities were not bad, he had no desire to foolishly solve it.
For labyrinths, he had a special way of solving them, which was "to bulldoze through."
Sturdy stone walls couldn’t stop him at all. Once he was sure of the direction, he went straight ahead, smashing through any walls he encountered with his iron fists.
He had been walking in the labyrinth for over half an hour. Normally, such a length of time would be enough to walk back and forth in a pyramid, yet he was still trapped here.
Xu Yi looked back, behind him was a straight "artificial passage," chiseled out by his own hands.
What exactly was the problem?
He realized that relying solely on brute force was not going to get him out of this maze.
"It’s over! It’s the Havara Labyrinth! We’re doomed!" Mo Yi suddenly sat down on the ground, his eyes vacant.
Xu Yi hadn’t killed the "band of three robbers"; Mo Yi was left alone, his identity and background piquing Xu Yi’s curiosity.
The fatty was just an insignificant person, but Xu Yi was afraid that killing him might put too much pressure on Mo Yi.
If Mo Yi had a mental breakdown and went for a self-destructive retaliation, refusing to guide him out of this Different Space, that would be troublesome.
Cudgel Man had Scarface slung on his back, limbs torn off.
Scarface’s wounds had been sprayed with special hemostatic medicine and wrapped with bandages; he wouldn’t die just yet.
Xu Yi hadn’t killed Scarface either. It wasn’t that he was compassionate, but he had a premonition that Scarface might still be of use.
"What is the Havara Labyrinth?" Xu Yi asked, as Mo Yi seemed to recognize the origin of the labyrinth.
"The Havara Labyrinth, a masterpiece from the prime days of ancient Egypt, constructed by a multitude of priests summoned by the pharaoh, using the power of magic arrays," Mo Yi said, his expression one of despair.
"On the day the labyrinth was completed, they claimed that even a god could not exit if he didn’t understand magic arrays."
It was indeed the magic arrays! Xu Yi understood; he had had a suspicion before, and now he could be one hundred percent certain.
Typically, magic arrays are used for defense or attack, but this one before him was different, it was countless times more advanced.
"An illusion? No! It must be... sensory hypnosis!"
Xu Yi felt his heart sinking; he knew he had encountered a big trouble.
He was, after all, in a Body of Demigod, and even his senses could be hypnotized, indicating the terrifying nature of this magical array maze.
"According to you, as long as one understands magic arrays, they would be able to leave this place, right?" Xu Yi looked towards Mo Yi.
"Are you a master of magic arrays?" Mo Yi abruptly looked up, staring intently at Xu Yi, his eyes filled with hope.
"I only have a superficial understanding, but..." Xu Yi suddenly changed his tone and took out the Sun Golden Scripture, "I can learn now."
Mo Yi’s eyes brightened. Why hadn’t she thought of this before—the Sun Golden Scripture, known as one of the origins of magic arrays, was in their hands.
If they thoroughly studied this scripture, why worry about not being able to leave?
With a smile on his face, Xu Yi opened the Sun Golden Scripture, only to become stunned; his complexion instantly turned grim.
The pages of the Sun Golden Scripture suddenly grew dim.
