Chapter 1651: Temple of the Gods
This magnificent and luxurious building has been sleeping in this forest for a hundred centuries, its glory fades, the dazzling golden decoration is also weathered and corroded, in the long geological changes, buildings The main body gradually settled down to the ground, but only one tenth of the whole can be exposed. What is amazing is that even if it becomes this appearance, the main structure of the building is still intact and stable. .
Even if it was buried and crushed by millions of tons of mud and rock, there was no trace of collapse.
It seems that in addition to those slick decorative accessories, the main body of the building has been specially strengthened, which shows that the sacred race does have its own unique features in the technical field.
Under the leadership of Leah, the group entered the ruins through the big hole in the dome and began to search for the path between the intricate floors and corridors in the building, and continued into its deeper.
After entering the interior of the building, Hao Ren once again confirmed that this thing is the remains of the gods and gods: in this magnificent hall, gorgeous sculptures and reliefs for demonstrating merits are everywhere, all kinds of religions The symbolic decorations are almost covered with every corner that a pedestrian arrives. These religious symbols are not used to worship any gods, but the people who built the building boast and whitewash themselves.
After a few wrong trips, Leah finally found the right direction. A vertical shaft leading to the ground appeared in front of everyone. The shaft was deep and dark, and occasionally some light flashed on the inner wall: it was still The energy left in this building is leaking through broken lines and pipes.
"There is such a deep inside..." Lily stood on the side of the shaft and carefully looked down at the probe. The tail suddenly loosened due to tension. "I am so embarrassed... Why do we always encounter this kind of thing?" Jump into the deep pit of the deep pit..."
"Do you often encounter such ruins buried in the ground?" Leah looked at Lily with a strange look, then shrugged. "It is very normal. The building was originally a towering shrine. It may be as high as a kilometer, and what we see on the surface is the tower top of the main tower that it is exposed to, so we are afraid to move down the inside of the ruin to reach the base part of it, and important Things are usually buried there."
As she said, she looked at the well wall of the shaft with some strangeness: "But it is strange to say that this thing can't even be seen by the stairs... How did the people who used the building move between these floors? ”
Vivian looked down: "This should be a lift, and the walking ladder is probably blocked by gravel."
"Lifting...machine?" Leah grinned. "In any case, fortunately, I am prepared, and the university student Leah will never make an unprepared adventure!"
As soon as the magician spoke, she opened her robes pocket like a treasure chest again, and pulled out a piece of rolled up cloth from inside: there must be some space expansion effect in her robes, otherwise it would be bad. Explain how her strange little props are hidden.
Leah shook the piece of cloth, gently placed it on the ground, muttering a curse in her mouth, and the cloth began to shake and stretch, thickening, and turned into a huge one in just a few seconds. The flying carpet and the four corners of the flying carpet also have a bright light. As Lia infused the magic into it, the flying carpet gradually floated to a height of less than half a meter from the ground, and it seemed to be reliable.
"Let's sit down here!" Lia said proudly. "This is what I did!"
Vivienne opened her wings at once: "I don't have to, I will fly by myself."
"I don't want to sit here!" Lily couldn't help but feel the hairs when she saw the unobstructed edge of the flying carpet. She felt subconsciously going backwards. "I always feel that this kind of softness doesn't even have a safety guardrail." Things will fall down!"
Hao Renbai took a look at the Huskies girl and pushed her to the flying carpet: "Don't make trouble, when you were flying in the plane, you are not afraid of heights?"
In fact, Hao Ren himself has auxiliary flight equipment, but the first time he took the magic flying carpet, he was inevitably a little curious, and he was squeezed into Leia’s magic carpet with other people in the attitude of experiencing life. .
Then the Miss Magician skillfully fired, geared, started, and drove the heavily overloaded flying carpet into the shaft.
Looking at the gray wall with a hint of gold rising in the field of vision, Hao Ren couldn't help but scream: "There were a lot of monsters on the road before I came. I thought that there would be more monsters in the ruins. I didn't expect it to be quiet after I came in."
"The demon monster is just gathered around the ruins because of the magic leak here, but it rarely runs inside the ruins," Lia explained. "Because the energy concentration inside the ruins is higher, it is more than the demon monster feeling." The degree of comfort, plus the lack of food inside the remains, is even more unnecessary for the demon monsters who still need to eat to survive."
"Can't find food... Yeah, this is the key," Hao Ren said, and couldn't help but laugh. "The adventure novels are really deceptive."
"what?"
"Amount, nothing, talk to yourself."
The flying carpet continued to fall in the shaft. For safety reasons, its speed of decline was not fast, which gave everyone a good opportunity to observe the situation along the way. Hao Ren secretly scanned the surrounding data through the mental connection command data terminal, while studying the decorative style of the sacred gods in relief and runes, but in the process, he suddenly heard a low and weird The muffled sound came from a certain direction.
The source of the sound seems to be far away, but it has been amplified and spread through the intricate cave structure of the underground.
The first reaction came from Lily. The husky girl, who was a little nervous, immediately grabbed the alloy giant x666 sword in her hand. The ear steadily turned to all directions: "Have you heard the sound?! It seems that something has collapsed. !"
"I also heard it," Lia was a little nervous. She stroked out a few magical runes and watched the runes gradually linger in the air. "It’s not the ruins, it should be deeper." Farther away, it should be the sound of the big tunnel."
“Is this situation very common?” Hao Ren asked with a frown.
"There are often strange noises coming out of the big tunnels, sometimes airflows, sometimes monsters are active," Lia said in disguise. "There are people who say that the ancient rigs in the big tunnel are digging through our world. Don't worry, it's a long way from us."
Hao Ren was willing to say that this voice has been passed to this, and how to listen is far less than that, but at this time the flying carpet has reached the bottom of the shaft.
A burst of flapping sound came from the side, Vivian landed next to the flying carpet, and put his wings around to look around: "The structure here seems quite complete."
Leah directed the flying carpet to fold the roll, and took out a magical crystal to detect the magic concentration in the air. The wizard's eyes almost came out with light: "Not only the structure is complete, but the magic reaction is also very strong. There must be an ancient facility still running here. It’s really a treasure!!"
Looking at the look of Lia's excitement, Nangong Sanba couldn't help but ask: "Do you know what you are looking for?"
"Is looking for something? No, no, I am a scholar, not a tomb thief," Leah said very seriously. "This ruin itself is what I am looking for, the knowledge buried here, anything that can be used or The ancient objects of research value, even the structure of the remains themselves and the runes and sculptures we saw along the way, are the greatest wealth! Come on, don't delay the time, we still have a lot to go! ”
Leah collected her magic flying carpet and rubbed her iron staff with her hand, making the glowing crystal at the front of the iron wand brighter than before, and then headed for the gate that was obviously the exit at the bottom of the shaft.
The gate is of course locked, and the identification system that controls the locking device is obviously obsolete for many years, but these are not a problem for Miss Lia, who can kill the cow by punch. She opened the door with a cane three or two times. And greeted Hao Ren and his party to keep up.
Hao Ren and Wei Wei An reluctantly looked at each other, followed closely.
This building is indeed like a magnificent temple, no matter what the original purpose of the sacred gods built it, its internal structure has the distinctive features of the temple. Not long after coming out of the elevator shaft, Hao Ren and his entourage saw the wide halls and the solemn corridors, and saw more epic reliefs and paintings in the corridors. If it wasn’t long before, the gods and gods had already given up their faith. And self-proclaimed as God, I am afraid that Hao Ren himself will feel that this place is dedicated to the gods.
The building has been abandoned for a long time, and the clues retained are not many, but according to the neatness of the remaining items in the building and the fact that no obvious signs of damage have been seen everywhere, Hao Ren thinks that Not abandoned in an emergency.
Its owner’s departure is obviously quite calm, all the things that can be taken away are taken away, and the things that cannot be taken away are put in the right position after being arranged, and each door is carefully closed, and there is no rush to evacuate. There is no messy appearance and no portal opening.
Hao Ren also did not see the scene of “the living items are being used, but the owner suddenly disappeared”, thus eliminating the possibility that “the gods will disappear instantly due to the impact of the gods, resulting in neat and orderly relics”, and finally according to various kinds. Clue, he judged that it should be abandoned before the arrival of the "God of Time".
A team, two purposes: Leah is looking for the knowledge and heritage of ancient civilizations with enthusiasm, and Hao Ren and his party are collecting information on the gods and improving the world of this "Rah Ryan". Intelligence, but in any case, they have successfully carried out the action in this ruins deep underground.
After a rough exploration of the central axis of the building, Leah proposed to go to the partial hall. She judged that there should be a still-running energy center in the partial hall according to the magic flow of the underground, which is invaluable to her.
Hao Ren certainly has no opinion.
The team walked through the main hall of the underground palace and the central cloister, and walked through the palaces where people had gone to the empty space. This low and depressed place gave people a feeling of breathlessness, but the team led by Hao Ren was also experienced. This difficulty is not a big deal for them.
However, on the way to the partial hall, they had to stop: the front was blocked by a rift.
The entire underground building was broken into two here, and its partial temple and main part were completely separated. The split was a rift with a wide white rice and a bottomless bottom.
Lily stood in front of the Rift Valley and looked up at the top: the dome of the building was also torn apart, and there was a direct view of the thick rock layers and countless stalagmites that had fallen down. This might have been an underground cave, so in There was no collapse of the rock formation above the palace dome.
There are many visible light flows along the top of the rock, and they flow along the stalagmites. The starting point of the light flow is the ruins of the building opposite the rift, the temple of the underground palace, and the end point is the crowd. The light flow in the upper part of the building is clearly the "magic flow" that Lia had previously felt.
The so-called magical vein does exist, but the road to its source is blocked.
Lily looked down at the big rift below and found that it was far darker and deeper than the previous shaft, and there was a chaotic cyclone in it, and a heart-rending danger came from the bottom. Let her not hold back the fluff and hurry away from this dangerous position.
Vivienne opened her own bat wings again, while judging the distance of the rift while moving the wings, the expression on her face didn't care much: "It's just that the white rice is wide and flies directly..."
This is also the idea of the rest of the team: a rift in the area of Bai Mikuan. It’s not even a challenge for this team. Lily can almost pass without help, not to mention that everyone has to fly. This option is gone.
However, Leah hurriedly stopped Vivian: "Wait a minute! Don't!"
Vivienne looked at the magician, so "What's wrong?"
"This rift is the 'breaking' that I mentioned before to the big tunnel." The expression on Lia's face was extraordinarily serious, even with a little nervousness: this expression is not on the face of this arrogant mage. Commonly, "If you want to fly over, then it’s really dead!"
Vivian closed her wings and had doubts on her face: "It’s just the entrance to the big tunnel. Is there a problem flying from above?"
"People who know a little about the big tunnel like you are the most likely to have an accident..." Leah couldn’t help but sigh, then smashed a stone from nearby and threw it into the rift after injecting magic into the stone. .
The magical flying stone was flying straight forward under the push of the wind, and it seemed to fly easily across the rift to the opposite temple, but just as it flew halfway, the rift But suddenly there was a dark shadow. Hao Ren had never seen such a weird phenomenon or matter. The things that rose from the rift seemed like a sheer darkness, and its dark color was so pure. So that I couldn't see any details on its surface, it just soared into the air, as if I had dug a piece from the space, and it seemed to drop a drop of dark ink on the picture. This darkness rose from the rift. A few meters high, there is no direct contact with the stone flying in the air, but the stone instantly becomes illusory and transparent.
In the next second, it disappeared from the air, and even the magic flash that Lia gave it disappeared.
Even after seeing all sorts of weird things, Hao Ren couldn't help but swallow his mouth at this time, and said that he was lying down.
No matter what it is, the feeling of being “snapped” by it is definitely not going to be good!
"The big tunnel will devour everything that enters its sphere of influence and has a magical reaction or a life reaction, whether it is a stone or an adult dragon," Leah said seriously. "I don't know if you understand The tunnel is taught by the teacher or by the bard, or just by the story of other mercenaries and adventurers bragging. I want to say that almost all of the current claims are for the big tunnel. The research is fooling people. Those who claim to enter the big tunnel and come back alive and book the book are even more nonsense. Their research is only in contact with the branch structure of the big tunnel, or in the mine near the tunnel. A circle just now, the body of the big tunnel has never been touched by people. It is ridiculous that many of the self-proclaimed scholars have even divided the big tunnel into two parts, one is the deadly zone and the other is the so-called 'moderate zone'. 'This theory is shit! There is no gentle zone in the big tunnel, it is just a normal crypt that is slightly affected by the tunnel. Research carried out in there worthless! "
She raised her finger to the rift in front, and the strange darkness was gradually shrinking back. It looked like nothing happened: "This is the big tunnel, the real big tunnel, so don't Try to pass above it, not to use the so-called magic to challenge its phagocytosis."
In the face of such a serious warning from Leah, Nangong Sanba couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "I finally know why you can't recruit people..."
Leah: "...ha?"
Izak also said with a sigh of relief: "I understand, in fact, according to the current world-recognized definition, the underground palace and shaft parts that we passed before have already entered the scope of the big tunnel?"
Leah: "...hey..."
Hao Ren looked at the magician in her arms: "It’s just that in your own theory, these parts are not counted."
Leah: "...I don't have any money anyway! Do you have the ability to kill me?"
Hao Ren: "..."
This answer is really fresh and refined, and it is completely unresponsive.
"Forget it, we haven't said anything yet," Hao Ren said with a face that was defeated. He waved his hand to the wizard. "We'd better find a safe place to camp and rest." Find a way to circumvent this rift, is this OK?"
Leah thought for a moment: "... Are you planning to kill me while I am sleeping, and then inherit my legacy?"
"Inherited your uncle!" Hao Ren finally couldn't help but burst into anger. "Do you really think that your dangerous house in Bai Maple City is worth inheriting?"
Leah retorted seriously: "The tower can't sell much money, but the land in the Master's area is very expensive!"
Hao Ren: "..."
