Chapter 196. The remains of the holy city behind the gates
"Damn." Kant gritted his teeth at this.
This feeling of being stared at from a soul level is extremely uncomfortable.
But he looked up at the vague ornamentation, as well as the faint murals that still remained on the stone walls on both sides and had not yet peeled off, and couldn't help but suppress the tension of his mind and looked up carefully.
This may be the mural left behind by the forces of the Lost City.
Can bring him some useful information.
James followed him, looking up at the carefully carved and painted murals on the stone walls that have survived to this day, with a slight exclamation on his face: "What a shocking masterpiece." ā
"That's right." Kant nodded, also slightly shocked in his heart.
Although the pigment of the mural has been stripped too much due to time, it is impossible to see what it once was.
But the pattern of the carving combined with the remaining paint still allowed them to draw a few conclusions.
For example, the origin of this cave.
On both sides of the stone gate, there are four murals.
Presumably, from left to right, Kant looks at it one by one, depicting majestic capitals, lush fields, merchants coming and going, and feared troops.
But it was the first stroke that caught Kant's attention the most.
On the strokes symbolizing the capital, hundreds of meters above the various magnificent buildings, there are thousands of kilometers of huge disks hovering in the sky, and countless sun holy patterns are diffused on the disks, circulating with terrifying power.
This huge solar disk, beyond Kant's impression, seems to echo the scorching sun in the sky.
Patches of golden light bloomed on the capital and its surroundings, and the essence of the sun condensed into the temple in the center of the capital, and Kant was still faintly seeing the center of the temple symbolizing the mural, a figure was standing there, holding his hands high, as if interacting with this essence from the sun.
"The Lost City."
Kant clenched his fists, and his heart beat faster.
Sure enough, in the depths of this cave, there were still the relics of this civilization that had been wiped out in ancient times, leaving only legends, and he couldn't help but murmur: "The blood of the sun god, the city where the son of the god lives, the golden holy city." ā
It was as if he had opened a new chapter.
And if you think about it, there are a lot of dry bones in the cave corridor.
and metal residue at the bottom of the dry bones.
In the legend of the Lost City, after hundreds of years of archaeology and historical documents by scholars of the Duchy of Lion, the graphic guess that was used when the Lost City was still glorious!
But after thousands of years, the originally indestructible weapons and armor.
but lost to the Sen Ran skeleton composed of calcium.
"Lord Kant, please command next."
James held a torch behind him, glanced at the ajar stone door, and asked in a deep voice, "We're in... Or backwards? After a pause, he suggested, "I think it's better for us to go back and go first, and then make plans when we have more fighters ready!" ā
Kant squinted slightly, with some hesitation in his heart.
Behind the stone gate is definitely an important relic of the Lost City, otherwise there would be no ruins of the temple of the Lost City at the top of the mountain, and there are also stone statues dedicated to it, as well as the smaller solar disk.
But those shoddy versions of demonized wolves came out of the stone gate.
If you look closely.
It can be found that the demonized wolves who were injured in the cave also had dark red blood stains when they retreated, and returned to this stone gate that was half a meter open, and in the deep darkness, even the torches could not shine too far.
Two Swadia sergeants stood guard at the door.
They could only find the inside of the stone gate, which also seemed to be a larger passage.
"Let's go in and have a look."
Kant made up his mind directly.
The legend of the Lost City has been passed down for thousands of years, and it has reached the kingdom before the Lion Principality, and the previous power is still in ancient history, and any danger is estimated to be wiped out in history.
A mere demonic creature, he and his troops can still deal with it.
Even the Lost City has some kind of mysterious backhand.
However, according to the estimation most recognized by scholars, it is estimated that it can be deduced to 10,000 years ago, the lost city that belongs to the age of the gods, even if there is still some energy, after thousands of years of time, calculated in thousands of years, how much threat can it pose to them now?
Everything will be corrupted by time, and even the gods who were once glorious have receded.
The world now.
It is the time of humanity and many races of their own!
After a short rest, the troops were back on standby, and the two Swadia sergeants at the front looked at Kant and asked in a deep voice, "My lord, do you want to open these two stone doors?" ā
"Open!"
Kant waved his hand without hesitation.
Since you're here, let's go through the main gate, and then go in with dignity!
At the top of the mountain overhead, 50 Swadia knights were still on standby, and any unusual shouts or shouts in the cave, after the sound effects amplified in the cave, would make these knights get the order to dismount immediately, carry their heavy shields and swords and run down quickly, a mere kilometer of downhill road, they will not be able to appear here in more than ten minutes.
This is also the confidence of Kant to dare to go down!
"Click, click, click..."
The heavy stone door was pushed open by two Swadia sergeants.
The door shaft seemed to have been dry, but because it was made of stone, as the weathered part of the exterior fell off, the stone door that had been opened in a small half was completely opened, and the entire black stone door was completely opened with the other stone door, completely appearing in front of Kant and them.
"Whew-"
The eerie cold wind blew in it in an instant, with a chill that seemed to penetrate the soul, so that Kant and the others who were standing in front of the main gate couldn't help but tilt their heads slightly.
The cold wind radiated out along the cavern corridor.
And just in the middle of the cold wind.
"What's that?"
Ravenston Ranger pointed forward, his voice solemn: "There are lights!" ā
Kant looked up as well.
In the darkness that seemed to be eternally frozen inside the stone gate, in the distance directly in front of the rangers, two bright lights appeared there, one left and one right, with a flickering shimmer, although in the extreme distance of sight, it was extremely clear.
With a little goldenness, there is no torch burning and extinguishing in the flickering light.
As if constant.
It's like two little suns.
Releasing their faint light, illuminating the surrounding scene.
"That'sā" Kant frowned, and the solar disc popped into his mind.
But right now.
Those two small rounds of the sun burst out in an instant.
The golden light began to spread on the two rounds of the sun, and in the huge space inside the entire stone gate, countless golden suns greeted the golden light and began to light up, and finally all the light converged into a destructive golden blazing light, shining on the central solar disk.
The 300-meter-long solar disc is densely carved with sun patterns, which are more complex than the sun patterns in Kant's cognition, and obviously hide more subtle and mysterious information.
But this solar disc is made of stone.
A huge 200-meter-tall stone figure stands in front of the solar disk, or rather the solar disk is part of the stone statue.
Wearing ancient armor, he holds the ancient sword in front of him with both hands.
It looks like a human face, but the center of the eyebrows has a pattern like a sun's holy pattern, and the golden light in the eyes is faintly shining, and there is also a golden light shining in it, bringing a god-like majesty.
Kant breathed a little rougher.
Even Aemond, the god of war worshiped by the Duchy of Lion, has no such arrogant statue in the largest temple, let alone a space of such a scale, which can be called a shock built like hollowing out the belly of a mountain!
"It's really... The remains of the Golden Holy City..."
Kant gritted his teeth and forced himself to recover from the shock.
The surrounding Swadia sergeants and Ravenston rangers, as well as Rhodok's skilled spearmen, also recovered, but their eyes were still full of horror and shock, and they subconsciously clenched the weapons in their hands, gritting their teeth to avoid paying attention to those glorious buildings and stone statues, but instead scanned ahead, vigilantly looking at the pile of black egg-like objects in the far distance, among which there were countless fake and inferior versions of demonized wolves, staring at them with scarlet eyes baring their teeth.
"Prepare for battle." Kant is issuing orders.
He also found that under the magnificent building and the golden light, in the center of the alley behind the stone gate, countless huge pitch-black flesh eggs were trembling slightly.
And with the trembling, the demonized wolves, all covered in black and with a few scales, were being discharged in the interface of the flesh egg, and soon howled in a low voice to join the remaining demonized wolves, gathered, and staggered not yet able to walk, but the scarlet eyes and brutal emotions had been transmitted through the gaze.
It seems that sensing Kant's arrival, those pitch-black flesh eggs are expelling demonized wolves faster and faster, and there are more and more of them, and they are becoming more and more agile.
Turning his head slightly, Kant said to James, "Let the reserves come down." ā
"Understood!" James nodded.
He walked quickly towards the entrance of the cave, shouting loudly into the cave, the sound rolling, and quickly transmitted to the Sanwaya Mountains outside the cave: "Abnormal situation is found, the reserve team is stationed!" ā
"Something unusual, reserve team stationed!"
Voices appear outside.
And the 50 Swadia knights, who had already dismounted and were ready, immediately rushed in in a neat line.
At the same time, Manid drew his knight's sword and walked in with the 20 Livingston rangers, and the sound of hurried and dense footsteps rang out in the entire cavern, as well as the clattering sound of the armor colliding with each other.
In less than 10 minutes, all troops appeared in this 100-square-meter space.
Although crowded.
But they were all stunned to see the dazzling golden light behind the stone gate.
And the countless sarcoma-black flesh eggs underneath.
And the hundreds and thousands that have just been discharged, countless of them are staring at the scarlet eyes, slowly assembling and adapting to the fake and shoddy version of the demonized wolf pack in this world!
"Forward!" Kant was full of confidence.
PS: I recommend the same type of "Riding a Chopping Horse to Step on the World", which is close to the ancient Chinese style. It's different from my fantasy book. If you like to ride and chop, you can go and see it~
