Volume 2: The Ruins of the Ancient Gods Chapter 25: The Ruins of the Temple
When the two walked out of the temple and saw the scene in front of them, they were stunned again.
"It's ...... Where?" Chen Mo said in a daze.
In front of me, it was no longer the scene I saw when I first entered the temple, but a land of ruins. The dim light, coupled with the shattered sky, looked like a dilapidated aura, and if it weren't for the remains of the god-patterned buildings on the ground, Chen Mo and Etia would even think that they had left the ruins of the ancient gods.
"Where is this?" asked Aetia.
"I don't know. Chen Mo also shook his head.
Obviously, both of them were at a loss for what to do about this sudden change in the scene.
Especially after Chen Mo and Aetiyah walked out of the temple, the door of the temple behind them also disappeared, that is to say, the two of them now have no way to retreat.
"Could it have something to do with that anomaly just now?" said Aetiyah again, closing her eyes slightly and beginning to use her mental power to explore her surroundings.
"Eight or nine is not far from ten, it should be. Chen Mo replied, and speculated: "It may be that mutation that activated a certain prohibition in this temple of gods, activated a certain formation, and we were brought here by that formation." ”
Hearing this, Aetiyah also nodded in agreement and said, "Judging from the elemental attributes around here, this should be an auxiliary space opened up from the main plane...... What do you think of about this?"
Etia looked at Chen Mo.
What did you think? Chen Mo shook his head slightly, to be honest, he didn't know what this place was. In his memory, there didn't seem to be such a space in the ruins of the ancient gods.
"I had no choice but to look around. Chen Mo said.
Then he opened the bracelet in his hand and, just as he had done when exploring the Pilsner Mountains, turned on the detection device. At the same time, to be on the safe side, he also took out one of the few probe vehicles in his carry-on space.
These aircraft are made of a special metal, which is hard and lightweight, and with an anti-detection circle on them, it is enough to achieve a high degree of agility and safety.
Unless there are people who specialize in detection magic, they can't detect the existence of these flying machines at all.
With the sound of a light energy flow, these four detection aircraft distributed around Chen Mo also slowly rose into the air, displayed on the virtual screen in Chen Mo's bracelet, which were four small red dots, and as these four aircraft continued to rise into the air, the range that Chen Mo could explore became larger and larger.
On the other side, Etia was not idle, but prepared several emergency spells in a row, which would automatically activate in case of an emergency, just in case of an unexpected situation.
And after doing all this, the two officially set off.
At this time, with the help of the probe, Chen Mo and Etia were able to really get a glimpse of the general appearance of this space.
This space seems to be the same as the outside, a temple ruin, but this place is a little more dilapidated than the outside.
Especially in the place where Chen Mo and Etia are currently located, there is only a piece of broken wall remaining, and there is not even a complete building.
"Chen Mo, look, there are murals here. Aetiyah pointed to the stone wall in front of him and said, "It's just that this mural seems to be a little damaged, and the content is not coherent at all, and it is impossible to judge what is recorded on this mural." ”
On the other side, Chen Mo was also looking at these murals, but what Chen Mo was looking at was a mural attached to the stone pillar.
The portrait shows a large number of people kneeling around an altar-like being, as if some kind of ritual is being performed.
However, when the picture arrives, the mural is gone, and the clue is broken.
And when Chen Mo changed another stone wall, the things recorded on it were completely different from the one Chen Mo had seen before.
As Etia said, the content of these frescoes is simply incoherent. Therefore, Chen Mo simply gave up the exploration of these murals, because it did not make any sense at all.
At this time, the detection vehicles that were released had also completed the reconnaissance of the surrounding environment, and the information they fed back also appeared on Chen Mo's bracelet.
I opened the bracelet again, and on the virtual screen, the originally blank mesh grid map was also drawn with some curved lines, and formed a simple three-dimensional portrait.
Through these three-dimensional portraits, it can be seen that within a kilometer of the two of them, there are scattered ruins, which is the same as Chen Mo and Etia had guessed before.
And in front of this ruin, there seem to be some intact buildings.
So, Chen Mo proposed to Etiya: "Why don't we go to the front and take a look, maybe we can gain something." ”
Etia listened and nodded, indicating the same.
Because in this place, except for a pile of ruins, it is still ruins, and there is no valuable information to be obtained.
So, the two of them set out on the road again, walking towards the ruins of the building in front of them.
However, it is still the same sentence, the unknown is the root of fear.
Therefore, walking in this completely unfamiliar land, whether it is for Chen Mo and Etiah, or for elves such as Tirkas, there will be a sense of worry in their hearts.
Coupled with the dim environment around him, the shattered sky in the sky will invisibly strengthen this pressure.
And in real action, it is the reduction of walking speed and the improvement of observation of the surroundings.
"Be careful. Chen Mo told Aetiya with concern, and then motioned for Aetiya to follow behind him, and he and the detector would open the way.
......
And just a little more than ten kilometers away from the two of them, Tirkas and the other three elves also walked in the space, and like Chen Mo and Etiya, they were also unfamiliar with this space.
"Elder Tirkas......" Biswanda looked left and right, and said, "What the hell is this place?"
"There are too few clues, and I can't be sure. Tirkas also shook his head: "But the only thing that is certain is that this space seems to belong to the subordinate space of the ruins of the ancient gods. As long as there are no other mutations, then for now, we will not be in any danger. ”
After saying that, Tirkas couldn't help but raise his head again and look at the sky.
The thick clouds shielded most of the sunlight, and beyond that, there was a huge crack in the sky, and in the midst of that crack was nothingness.
Looking at this scene, Tirkas couldn't help frowning, and there was some uneasiness in his heart. This is out of a knee-jerk hostility to the world of order and the world of chaos.
What the hell happened here?, Tirkas wondered.
What kind of accident could have made such a place where the gods dwelled so ruined?
At this moment, another breeze blew through the gravel dust.
"O wind, tell me about the situation around here. The elf, Arya folded her hands and muttered a prayer, beginning to communicate with the elemental forces around her.
And those winds also seemed to sense Arya's call, and began to gather around Arya, communicating with her.
Communication with the elements is a very special ritual, since the elements themselves are not conscious, so if you want to discern information from the feedback of these wind elements, you need to accumulate from a lot of practice, and use these accumulations as a reference, and finally transform them into a language that you are familiar with.
However, because this method takes a lot of time to practice, only some immortal species can be used.
Others, such as the short-lived species of the Terrans, can only use the most basic spiritual power induction (except for Chen Mo), because this method is quick to learn and the time required to cast it is also short, so the popularity rate is relatively high.
It's just that in such an unfamiliar environment, it is not enough to rely on mental power to perceive. Therefore, Arya used this tedious, but more detailed method of discovery.
"How's it going?" asked Tirkas, seeing that Arya's communication ceremony was over.
"The wind tells me that ahead, there is a ruin of a palace with a high degree of integrity, and there there may be the information we want. Arya opened her eyes and replied.
"Ahead?" said Tircas, who pondered for a moment, then gave the order, "Alright, go ahead, forward." ”
Hearing this, both Etiah and Biswanda nodded, and followed Tirkas's back again, heading towards the ruins of the palace.
