Chapter 265: The Destruction of Loga (Part I)
Chapter 265: The Destruction of Loga (Part I)
If there is any difference between the goddess of nature and the lord of radiance. It would take theologians more than a year to say, but for the secular there is only one obvious difference.
The church of the Lord of Radiance was built with donations from believers. And the temple of the goddess of nature was built at the goddess's own expense.
The Temple of Gifts in front of him was not up to the size of the Temple at all, only one-twenty-fourth the size of an ordinary Temple. This is the crystallization of the believers of Luojia City, and most of the materials come from the heterotope.
The black temple is not oppressive, with a crystal skylight, which is not too strong to shine on, just shrouded in the idol of the goddess. The goddess does not like human beings to make statues for her, and all the temples of the goddesses are basically in the form of murals, recording the grace of the goddess for tens of thousands of years.
These heterogeneous creatures, according to their own thoughts, built a god statue for the goddess, but the face of the god idol is a veil-like mist, condensed and persistent.
Saleen already knew by this time that these creatures of the Alien Plane. I didn't see the face of the goddess. Otherwise, Nerice's image would be extremely suspicious.
Salin and Rex bowed respectfully in front of the statue of the goddess Myrs, and Salin did not rush to find the crystal but observed the structure of the temple.
There are countless precious items in the materials of this temple, but Salin does not want to destroy the temple, he only wants to take what he can't get in this plane. Of course, the divine crystal is the most important, in addition to the statue of the god in this hall, it is the altar, on the altar, there is a section of emerald green branches, this branch is extremely thick, nearly half a meter in diameter, Salin sensed and swept over, and his heart was surprised.
Could it be that this is a thundercloud tree? Such a thick branch is just a tiny shoot at the very end of some kind of plant.
When Elenor saw the nearly ten-meter-long branch that filled the altar, she was excited and said to Salin, "This is the Eternal Tree. ”
The Tree of Eternity, a plant unique to the Elven plane, is not as famous as the Tree of Life, but as an equipment material, it is much more useful than the Tree of Life.
The best longbows in the Elven Plane are all made by the Tree of Eternity. It seems that there were once elves in the city of Loga, believing in the goddess Myers.
All of them quietly awaited the action of Saleen and Rex, even at a time when humans were not afraid of the gods, the goddess Myers. It is still an extremely respectable existence in the Myers Continent. In her temple, it seems inappropriate to take her sacrifice.
Salin sighed and said to Rex, "Do it, they don't follow me in because they know what we're going to do, but they can't stop it." ”
Salin was half right, Immels refused to follow Salin in, because he couldn't bear the humans tearing down the temple in front of him. But he wasn't sure how to deal with Rex.
But Rex's actions have a special meaning for him. Now Luo Jia has become a prison cage for all living things. The souls of these creatures are still there, ** have died, and by the power of the goddess, they have not completely died. Half-undead, in fact, there are a lot of undead with poor strength.
Without Loga, he has a way to gradually regain his strength and even his life.
Although the goddess has fallen, some natural magic is still there, and these magic can be completed without the gift of the goddess, including the divine art of life granting.
A lot of creatures like Ismail. Also longing to leave Loga. This is the real reason why Rex and the others can come to the Temple of Grace.
"Be in awe. Rex read silently.
Salin walked up to the altar and put the huge branch into the dimensional stone. Awe, he knows, but what should be done, must be done. Just as humans challenged the gods and conquered various planes. Saleen didn't believe it was because of a thirst for power, more like a last resort.
Humanity, which is already extremely free, has no need to conquer the gods at all. The goddess Myers has never put shackles on them, so why do those thankless things?
Rex didn't compete with Salin for the branches of the Eternal Tree, she followed Salin to the altar, and under the branches of the Eternal Tree, there was a huge shelf, the material of this shelf, Rex liked very much, and it was directly included in the Ring of the HRE.
The mages didn't follow, only Rex and Salin did.
Saleen released the water in the gourd and began to cut through the various materials within the temple. He didn't want to move the statue of the goddess, there were no pillars in the temple, everything was laid out on the surface, except for the crystal of the god.
It stands to reason that the Divine Crystal should be on the altar, but on the altar are the branches of the Eternal Tree, this kind of thing is the goddess's favorite natural thing, but the Divine Crystal is not hidden under the branches, and Salin can only dismantle the temple little by little to find out where the Divine Crystal is hidden.
Because he didn't want the temple to collapse, Saleen was very careful, and he was busy for more than four hours, and all the materials that could be cut in the temple were cut by Saleen. Separated from Rex, but still hasn't found the hidden location of the god crystal.
"Elenor, where do you say, where will the Divine Crystal be?" Salin had no choice but to ask the elf who knew the divine language.
"Condensing in the idol is the greatest possibility. ”
Divine Statue?Salin's perception immediately penetrated into the idol, and he was stunned to find that the divine crystal was in the skull of the goddess idol. Moreover, there is a part of the divine crystal that is exposed, that is, the eyes of the goddess.
The statue of the goddess is more than eight meters tall and has a head of less than one meter, with perfect proportions. I don't know what the material of this idol is, but the divine crystal in the skull is naturally accumulated over the years. Because of the fall of the goddess, this divine crystal has no coercion, and Salin can judge the size.
Inside the skull of the idol, the irregular divine crystal was more than half a meter in diameter. Moreover, this crystal is not complete, but hundreds of crystals are linked together to form it, and the crystal in the eyes is emerald green, the same as Neris's eyes.
To take it or not to take it? Salin was still hesitant in his heart. Reverence should not be wanted.
"Master, the goddess's own temple, but there is never a statue. Neris suddenly spoke.
It dawned on Salin that this idol was the god. It was erected by the goddess's heterogeneous followers, and the goddess had never come here in person. The goddess does not allow believers to erect a statue, so dismantling the statue herself is not disrespectful to the goddess.
"Nellis, you come. Controlling the flow of the water, Saleen immediately wrapped himself around the statue's feet, intending to cut it off from its pedestal.
Rex hesitated for a moment, and Saleen smiled at her and said, "Let's leave quickly, and go back and divide this again." "His spiritual power has been consumed somewhat, and the size of this idol is large. So let Neris collect it. Collecting items with dimensional stones is completely dependent on the strength of mental power to determine how much you can earn.
As for putting the statue with Rex, Saleen didn't distrust Rex, he saw the greedy look on his mage.
Mage is not synonymous with nobility, this huge divine crystal is worth more than a high-grade magic core of the same volume. Any magician is afraid that his spiritual power is lacking, and without spiritual power, no matter how many magic strings you have, you will not be able to release any magic. With spiritual power, even if the magic string is exhausted, it can barely release first-level magic. For the Great Magician, the value of this divine crystal could not be measured by gold coins at all.
It took more than an hour for the water to cut the idol down, and Neris quickly put it into the dimensional stone. Those mages looked at Neris helplessly, since Rex didn't object, of course they couldn't give an opinion. Fortunately, Salin and Rex had a good time working together before, and this young mage had never broken his promise.
Click......
A slight crack suddenly appeared in the ground, and although the ground here was not paved with steel rock, it was also colored granite, and it was fused with divine magic, even if it was bombarded by low-level magic, it would not crack.
"Let's ...... quickly" Before Saleen could finish speaking, the temple shook and the stone on the ceiling suddenly fell. Saleen quickly blessed all the people around him with the shield of the water pattern, and all the mages of Rex also released their magic and rushed to the outside of the temple.
Ismail waited patiently in the small square, and when he saw the temple crumbling, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes. The creatures of purgatory were not supposed to have feelings, but when they saw the Temple of Gifts collapse, Ismail shed a tear uncontrollably.
Tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, and Ismail reached out to catch it, took out a jewel-carved bottle, and filled it. He may have been the first weeping infernal creature. These tears are also unique in the world. With this tear, it is possible to exchange anything with Saleen in the future.
Salin and the others fled to the square, the temple behind them had collapsed, the dust was stirred, Salin looked at the ruins with remorse, he knew that if he took away the statue, the temple would collapse, and he would definitely tear down the temple first. He carefully took out a piece of material from the dimensional stone, and saw that the material in the dimensional stone had not turned into powder like the remaining materials in the temple, and he was much more relieved.
"Rex, we ......" Salin could finish his words, and with the ruins of the temple as the ruins, the buildings on all sides began to crumble one after another, spreading outward in the shape of a ring. The sound of the bang was incessant, and even the sky made the sound of glass shattering.
"Lord Salin, your arrival is doomed to the destruction of the city of Loga. Ismail said lightly on the side, at this time, he didn't see any sadness at all.
Luojia City, itself is a labyrinth of space folded out, with the collapse of the building, countless spaces seem to be like bubbles, making a crisp snapping sound, shattered. The creatures that didn't have time to leave the bubble also died out completely.
Salin was terrified, this Ismail was so ruthless, in order to leave Luojia, he did not hesitate to bury so many lives.
As if knowing what Saleen was thinking, Ismail said, "My lord, it is you who have given them liberation, and without the goal of faith, even if the soul is eternal, it will be painful. ”
Salin gradually clarified his thoughts, these beings, the soul is still there after the death, in addition to the goddess's divine art, it depends on the crystallization of their belief power. The crystals were taken by him, and those creatures were bound to die unless they signed a contract.
In time, that idol may not become a true deity.
The Lord of Light said that He could grant mankind eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven, but I am afraid it is a lie. Is eternal life given to mankind by the gods, or is it given to the gods by humans?
