Almost as soon as Hao Ren and his party stepped on the ramp leading to the Great Temple, all the stone colossias that were originally in a wandering state stopped at the same time, and then the surface of the huge, jellyfish-like strange spirit in the sky shimmered with bursts of light, and the electromagnetic shield that Vivien had created before began to make a crackling sound, and in the violent energy hedge, the electromagnetic shield disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye.The Colossus Corps instantly regained their ability to coordinate, as if enraged by the intruder's blasphemy, they began to rush frantically in the direction of the Grand Temple, standing on the ramp and looking around, only to see countless swaying huge figures destroying all obstacles in front of them in a devastating manner, countless ancient houses and towers were overturned, the solid stone floor was also trampled into powder, the footsteps of the Colossus Corps swept across the city like rolling thunder, and even the entire high ground where the Grand Temple was located shook slightly."
The Stone Legion is going crazy!"
The hairs on Lily's ears stood up, and she suddenly rushed behind Hao Ren, "Landlord!
Are you sure these guys won't be near the Great Temple?
”Hao Ren didn't say anything for a while, because in fact he was not 100% sure of his guess, he just pulled Lorisa and Hethana, who were a little stunned, when he saw those gargoyles swarming towards him: "Retreat into the Great Temple first, at least the building looks very solid, even if the gargoyles continue to advance, we can rely on the walls of the Great Temple to fight each other for a while." ”Hethanna didn't have much experience in dealing with this kind of battle, and she was particularly nervous at this time: "What you said is not reliable—if you are not reliable, Lord Vivien will be in danger with you!"
”"Don't worry, I've dealt with more dangerous things than these things," Hao Ren smiled nonchalantly, "and even if I can't stop so many gargoyles, I can still get you all out of this alternate space safely - there's nothing in this world that can stop a censor from his tracks." ”"......Shh The tone sounds quite cowhilarious......"
Heatherena muttered to herself, but she honestly followed Hao Ren towards the ramp of the Great Temple.The entire central temple is built on a high platform above the city, and several pyramid-like buildings and rectangular palaces scattered between the pyramids form this magnificent ancient architectural complex, which is not located on a "natural terrain", but a bone plate on the head of the giant beast Aether - in this city built on top of the giant beast, there is no such thing as "natural terrain".This topography also results in a long ramp around the temple, and the numerous steps on this ramp are a striking boundary that separates the temple area from the surrounding urban area.The Colossus stopped in front of the ramp, and everything was as Hao Ren expected.They gathered more and more at the foot of the temple, and the stone guards gathered from all over the city almost "golems" on the ramp at the moment like angry creatures to "vent", but in the end, none of the stone statues crossed the temple to "breathe......
Your guess is quite accurate," Heatherana only let out a sigh at this time, she wiped the fine beads of sweat on her face, and at the same time glanced at Hao Ren's back, "How is this cat?"
”"I was kicked by the stone statue and had internal injuries before, but I gave her some biscuits from the goddess, and at this time the injury was healed, but her spirit was a little sluggish," Hao Ren said while turning his head to look, the cat girl's stupid face was lying on his shoulder, and her furry ears hung down on his face with peace of mind and tiredness, and she felt itchy on her face when she shook her head slightly, and when she was awake, she was quite quiet after falling asleep, "Hmm......
It seems that the 'medicine strength' has come up, and he has already slept with porcelain. ”"Landlord," Lily tugged at Hao Ren's arm, "what do you think will be in that big temple?"
”Hao Ren glanced up, and the sand-yellow pyramid at the end of the ramp stood majestically above, and the top of the pyramid pointed straight to a huge vortex on the border of another dimension, as if it had led to the destruction of this lost city."
I don't know," he shook his head, "but we're all here, and we'll have to at least investigate what seems to be the most important place."
The city looks like it was destroyed by the Red Moon, but Vivien doesn't remember what happened here, so our investigation may be the only hope of helping Vivien recover this memory. ”"Huh," Lily nodded, looking at Vivien flying in mid-air, "Bats really make trouble for people......"
Without being disturbed by the Colossus Corps, Hao Ren and his party quickly arrived at the gate of the central pyramid of the Great Temple.Unlike the "small" temple that preceded it, the central temple was noticeably better in terms of the materials used in its construction, and its gates still stood sturdily and intact, like a serious soldier guarding all the secrets of the Great Pyramid.Vivien landed, first looked around, and frowned slightly: "Why can't you see a stone statue here......"
"Isn't it better not to see it," Lily's thinking was very simple, "And the landlord said before that the stone statues all ran out of the surrounding temples, and this temple in the center of the city is a forbidden area for stone statues." ”"Even if there weren't any guarded stone statues, there should be decorative sculptures here," Vivien shook her head, "and that's the most basic thing to do for a temple—at least according to the city's architecture, there must be sculptures in the temple." ”"Yes," Lily said, gesturing to the top of a nearby palace, "you see there's a big dog head over there!"
”Vivien gave the husky girl a blank look: "I didn't mean that!
And it's obviously a wolf head, okay, don't forcibly divide other people's normal wolves into your own side just because you accept the setting that you are a dog!
”Lily: "......"
"Anyway, it's better not to see that kind of stone guard than to continue to be chased by the other party," Lorissa saw that Lily and Vivien were getting farther and farther away, and quickly interrupted, "There seems to be magic reinforcement on this door, I may be able to try to crack its ......"
Before Lorisa could finish speaking, she heard a loud "boom" from the side, and then the magically reinforced, seemingly impregnable bronze door, fell in all parts, and was filled with smoke and dust, Hao Ren carried two blasting patches that had not been used up and shook them out: "What are you talking about?"
”Lorisa: "......"
"Ahem, you can get used to it, the landlord's style of solving problems has always been like this," Lily patted Lorisa on the shoulder, "It's no problem to blow up the problem." ”Lorissa continued: "The gate of "......" has been perfectly cracked by Hao Ren through technical means, and everyone has raised their vigilance and followed Hao Ren into this ancient temple that has been sealed for thousands of years.Huozhi was very happy that the flickering light of the fire made the dim temple corridor look particularly eerie, but other than this eerie feeling, Hao Ren and his party did not see any enemies in it, or what looked like it might become enemies.The interior of the temple is magnificent, but the furnishings are simple and unpretentious.It is the largest complex in the city, with a grand form and scale from the outside, but on the inside, it is as unadorned as a humble grotto.There are no fine stone sculptures, no ceremonial utensils inlaid with precious stones and precious metals, and even the most ordinary household utensils are rare—passing through several rooms in a row, there are only gray rock tables and stools and wooden lamp stands that have rotted for many years, and there is not even a single metal vessel to be found in this temple, except for these "furniture" that can be described as penance instruments.Not to mention worshipping the gods, the monks who live here may not even have a problem with their normal survival.However, this was certainly not the case in the first place, as many rooms that were apparently once used by monks could be found in the temple, and Hao Ren soon found several "treasure troves" that had been emptied.It was certain that it was a "treasure trove" for storing valuables, because the computer had found a lot of dust from precious metals and a few lost gems on the floors and walls of those rooms.The central temple wasn't so shabby in its beginnings, it was emptied.So who emptied the place?"
The city was destroyed by the Red Moon, and the moonlight hasn't dissipated until today, so it's unlikely that there will be any future tomb robbers," Itzhax began to analyze the strange situation in the Great Temple, "There are many rooms in the temple, and the structure is also very complicated, and from the part we have searched so far, we can confirm that it has been completely emptied, so it should be emptied by someone who is quite familiar with this place, and it is an organized and planned action, I think the residents of this city did it." ”"Civilian mutiny?"
Heathera blinked, "The people at the bottom rebelled against the priests at the top, and then robbed the entire temple?"
”"It's unlikely, if that happens, the temple will suffer much more damage than we see in front of us," Vivien shook her head, "and in the age of mythology, it was impossible for 'mortals' to resist the upper priests, even if the upper priests were nothing more than slaves of the old gods, and their power was not something ordinary people could fight against." ”"Then who 'ransacked' this temple?"
Hao Ren frowned, "And only the big temple in the center was looted, and there was nothing lost in the smaller pyramids nearby." ”Vivien shrugged, "Who knows—" As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly showed a puzzled expression and looked up at the end of the hallway."
What's wrong?"
Hao Ren asked curiously.Vivien blinked, "I think I heard someone call me again......"
