Chapter 144: Stone Gate In the vast desert, the blood of humans and the blood of the sand tribe are splashed on this yellow sand that has not changed for thousands of years as if it had been overturned paint buckets, and the human corpses have been buried in the sand dunes, and the corpses of the sand tribes are lying down all over the desert, and only the occasional broken sword inserted in the sand proves the fierceness of the battle in the past few days.
In the past few days, the Fire Worshippers and the Sand Tribes have fought several times around the relics of the sages, and the Sand Tribe, who had made a living by killing and robbing the border of the Fire Worshippers, have been uncharacteristically entangled with the Fire Worship army this time, and every time the Fire Worship army repels the Sand Tribe, more Sand Tribes will appear in front of the eyes of the human beings shortly after each time the Fire Worship army repels the Sand Tribe.
And the supply team of the Fire Worship Clan's army has also been attacked by the Sand Clan many times in the past few days, and it is obviously not a wise choice to stick to this kind of place where the other party has an advantage.
Two days ago, when repelling the Sand attack for the third time, Duke Adela agreed to the priests' suggestion to excavate the sage's relics, thinking that as long as all the items in the sage's ruins were moved back to Zoroastrium, then the Sand people would not be able to do anything to defile the sage's relics, and the sacrifices would not be angry if the sage's soul was excavated.
The excavation work was carried out smoothly at the beginning, although the Sand people disturbed the progress of the excavation to a certain extent, but the scale of the ruins was not very large, and the soldiers of the Fire Worship Tribes relied on rudimentary tools to dig out the main hall of the sage ruins with manpower, but at this time a new problem appeared.
No one thought that in this hall, there were no magic props stored, only a stone gate was erected in the empty hall, and there was nothing behind the door, and the pointer of the magic compass provided by the executioner pointed to this unknown stone door, but no matter what method the fire worshippers used, they could not move or open this gate.
Obviously it should be a stone gate carved from ordinary sandstone, neither swords nor magic can hurt it in the slightest, even the high explosives urgently transferred by the executioner from the royal capital can not have any effect on the stone gate and the ground near it, after studying why this door is so strong, the magicians of the executioner have come to the preliminary conclusion that this door has a powerful law power, and it is close to the law power of the world will, even the law law of the legendary warrior may not be able to break this stone door.
The undying Duke Adra's mood has now changed from maintaining the dignity of the sage to a strong curiosity, why there is such a powerful stone gate here, what is in the stone gate, is it said that this stone door leads to some legendary space, or is it a powerful monster sealed.
With this conjecture in mind, the army of the Flame Worshippers had held out here for the fifth day.
The desert without danger and the Sand people who may come out of anywhere at any time have caused great casualties to the Fire Worship army, nearly 10,000 Fire Worship soldiers have stayed in the desert forever in five days, and the Sand Tribesmen have paid three times the price of the Fire Worship Army, although the poisonous witchcraft of the Sand Witches has caused a large number of casualties to the Fire Worshippers, but the combat effectiveness of those Sand Warriors is significantly weaker than the Fire Worship soldiers who are equipped with rifles, and the Fire Worship soldiers are very good at riding on camels and shooting while running, And on the ground, their knife skills are also extremely sharp.
However, the battle has stalemate, and the legendary Soul Eater has not yet appeared, which has caused concern for everyone who knows how powerful and crazy the Soul Eater is.
In the early morning, a man in a cloak appeared outside the camp of the Fire Worshippers, looking at the endless Fire Worship tents and the herds of camels that were not chirping, and the cloaked man walked over without stopping.
"What people!?
Hold it!
The Fire-worshipping sentinels immediately noticed the man's presence, and they aimed their rifles at the man and shouted loudly.
"Shamen!"
When the man raised his right hand and whispered the word, the two Fireworship sentries had already pulled the trigger.
The crisp sound of gunfire broke the silence of the early morning, and the man's clothes had a few more holes, but the man's body did not bleed, and the unshaped, unshaped, metal bullets that had been accumulated by the impulse fell on the sand, and the man tore off his cloak without care, and a strange man with a skin inlaid with pieces of scaly rocks appeared in front of the fire-worshipping sentinel, and behind the man, a huge gate made of sand rose from the ground.
Countless Sand warriors roared out of the waterfall-like sand and rushed into the Fire-worshipping camp amid the panicked warnings of the Fire-worshipping sentries.
Perhaps woken up by the previous gunshots, when the Sand warriors rushed into the tent they were faced with the scimitars of the Fire Worship soldiers, the battle unfolded at this sudden moment, no formation, no strategy, complete melee, Duke Adra, who was awakened by the shouts of killing outside, also walked out of the camp with his pure gold scimitar at this time, and his guards were surrounding his tent to block the Sand warriors who tried to rush in.
"What's going on, why are so many lizards coming over without warning!?"
Duke Adela asked the captain of his guard.
"Big Boss, a gate appeared outside the camp, and a lot of lizardmen popped up from inside, and our sentries rushed in before they could even warn!"
The captain of the guard replied, holding his scimitar beside Adela.
"Door?
Could it be teleportation magic?
After the initial confusion, the soldiers began to form small groups to fight back against the attacking Sands, while some of the warriors who were good at shooting turned over and climbed onto their camels and began to wander around the camp to support their companions.
Soon the Duke of Adela found out where the door was, the huge sand gate nearly three stories high stood outside the camp, and the army of the Sand Clan was quickly rushing out of the sand gate, most of the people who just rushed out were ordinary Sand warriors armed with bone spears, and now they were sand worm knights, there are two kinds of sand worm knights, one is a beetle monster that can fly, and the other is a multi-legged insect monster that can sneak in the sand, the addition of the two sand worm knights is making the camp of the Fire Worshippers even more chaotic, Especially when a large number of obese Sand wizards also began to come out of the sand gate one after another, which made the Duke of Adela realize the seriousness of the matter.
"That door must be destroyed!
Where are the executioner's magicians?
Duke Adela asked the guard.
"Big Boss, yesterday Lord Payne went to greet the magician who came to crack the stone gate, saying that he would come back early this morning."
The guards replied immediately after hearing Duke Adra's question.
"Damn!
How can something go wrong at this time!
Duke Adela complained weakly.
Next to the sand gate, under the escort of many sand sorcerers and warriors, the man was maintaining the operation of the sand gate, and at this time, a human figure came out of the sand gate, spitting and complaining angrily.
"Damn, Locke, can't you just improve your sand and don't get my clothes full of sand!?"
Grumbling, Rigana came to the Soul Eater named Locke as she cleaned the sand from her clothes.
"You can go without clothes."
Locke replied stiffly, if it weren't for his expression, Rigana would definitely think that this man was teasing her.
"Forget it, I don't bother with you pimple, has the door been found?"
After cleaning up her clothes briefly, Regana asked helplessly.
"Over there."
Locke pointed in one direction.

"Okay, I'll go over and see if I can find the key directly."
As she spoke, Rigana casually pointed to the corpses of several Fire-worshipping warriors on the ground, and phantoms flew into the corpses, and the dead Fire-Worshipping warriors immediately climbed up like living people, and then hugged Rigana and dived in the direction of the ruins.
The Soul Eater named Locke stared at the direction Regana had left for a while, then suddenly looked up at the sky, and a metal projectile slashed through the sky and hit the sand gate, but the cannonball did not cause any damage to the gate, and the electromagnetic cannonball after passing through the sand gate hit the sand behind the sand gate, and did not achieve any results except for a piece of dust, but before Locke could fight back, a chanting of a spell sounded from the sky.
Twelve metal spears inlaid with magic crystals descended from the sky and stuck in the sand to form a makeshift circle, and as the neat chanting of spells in the sky, the metal spears emitted a dazzling magical light.
With this dazzling light, the sand gate began to gradually get out of control, and the sand flow that was originally like a waterfall seemed to be disturbed by something and fluctuated violently, and at this time, the short-lived magic spell also came to an end, and a silver magic cover appeared in the sky above the desert, shrouding the sand gate and most of the fire worship camp in it, and at the moment when the light mask was completely formed, the sand gate finally lost its strength and completely collapsed into ordinary sand.
"O sinners who have sold their souls, the time has come for you to be punished."
As the dust from the fall of the sand dissipated, twelve humans covered themselves in black robes appeared in front of the stone man who controlled the sand gate.
"You ......
Be......
Executioners?
The stone man asked stiffly, his voice low and hoarse, and the pace of his speech was very slow.
"We're the executioners of the sinners who devour the souls of others, and of course we'd prefer you to call us scavengers."
The black-robed mage replied, and in their hands some weapons that looked like spears and staves.
"I ......
Knights of the Dirt ......
Locke.
The stone man pointed at himself, and then took on a battle stance.
