Chapter 459: The Tower of Corruption

"The orthodox ancient Maya have long since disappeared into history, but they have left behind some marginal bloodlines, or cultural relics, and the mystical polymaths, real-world archaeologists, have deduced some truths from ancient times. ”

Many polymaths have speculated that the Maya were destroyed by an abrupt catastrophe that probably began with the god Sercie, a marginal descendant of the Mayans who believed that the Mayan deity had betrayed the Maya and allowed the invasion of the gods from outside the territory that led to the fall of the Mayan Empire. ”

"Judging from this temple, it seems that their guess is correct. ”

Rena Swinton stood in front of the idol, her eyes full of excitement after learning the truth of history.

Around her, in the corners or in front of the statues, there were flint weapons, sacrificial objects, or small ancient things, each of which overflowed with a faint glow.

That's right, it's all a curiosity.

In the distant past, they may have been just ordinary objects.

Sealed in the ruins, the special environment causes them to undergo some subtle metamorphosis.

Tang Qi glanced at it a few times, and couldn't help but have a look of regret on his face.

It's all wonderful, yes, but there's a common piece of information.

"Strange things that transform in a special environment, after leaving the environment, are likely to be directly damaged due to the violent impact of the spiritual tide......

Because of this fragment, Tang Qi switched from "Wealth Fan Mode" to "Sage Mode" in a second.

These strange things are of a very low level, but they are still strange things, and it is good to take them home as gifts for the students.

Perhaps because of the fragility of their own materials, after the transformation, they did not gain powerful and extraordinary power, once they broke away from the ruins and were impacted by the spirit tide, they were likely to become dust directly, which made them lose any value.

Tang Qi ignored strange things because of his insight.

Rena Swinton, on the other hand, didn't go to see the strange objects in the first place.

Concentrate entirely on studying the statue of Cersei, the "god of hunting and fertility", while not forgetting to share her knowledge with Donkey.

"An adventurous, intellectually curious warrior!"

Tang Qi insisted on the character design, listened to Rena's narration, and silently compared it with the warrior of the God of War school, the two are indeed very different.

As he listened, Tang Qi's gaze also fell on the idol, and the ghostly light passed by.

"Strange Thing: A despised idol whose devotees for some reason turned their backs on her and damaged and insulted the idol...... It can be used as a medium for witchcraft such as curses and blasphemy. ”

"The reason is unknown!"

"The fall of the Mayans stemmed from the betrayal of Serei, the betrayal of the gods, did it also lead to the mysterious disappearance of the entire Mayan god system...... The spirit tide returns, although many profound transcendent organizations or races have not been able to bring the gods back, but at least the gods who know the belief are in a deep sleep. ”

"And the Mayans who once dominated the continent south of the Federation, they have left a marginal bloodline, but they have never been able to recover a little strength, which may mean that the Mayan god system has suffered a great change...... The Chituga tribe is definitely not descended from the Mayans. ”

"Is the evil seed that has devoured the Chituga people the real murderer who caused the destruction of the Mayans back then?"

The answer is definitely in this ruin. ”

Tang Qi's eyes also faintly showed a faint excitement.

He is both a forgiver wizard, a mystic potionist, and a "polymath".

In the face of "the truth behind the mystery of history", no polymath can remain calm.

At the same time as the excitement, Tang Qi's vigilance was also mentioned to the highest.

It was at this moment that the terrible omen of crisis approached rapidly from a distant land.

Tang Qi didn't look back, but the scene automatically came to his mind.

From three directions, three thick pillars of blood light blasted towards the "Temple of Telsei".

How is it possible? Because of the relationship between the temples in which they are located, the Vezares have broken through the "original limits"?

When Tang Qi showed a hint of surprise, Rena Swinton also felt the danger.

Immediately, an unexpected scene happened.

The female adventurer, who could have left alone and quickly, suddenly flickered, appeared in front of Tang Qi, grabbed him, and threw him straight out of the temple.

If it weren't for Tang Qi's quick reaction and timely suppression of the counter-killing instinct of "Chaga Fighting Technique", Rena Swinton would have been hammered by him now.

Call!

Like a fluttering leaf, Tang Qi stopped above another temple.

And then, in his eyes.

The Vezares Legion, which was supposed to patrol the ancient city and try to catch and kill the "little bugs" who had escaped into the temples, began to break free from some kind of "primitive restraint" one after another, and the bloody eyes opened and attacked Donkey and Rena Swinton.

For a time, the light of the bloody eyes ravaged this ancient city that had awakened from the black impact gray and decaying years.

Under the gray sky, Tang Qi stretched out the "Guardian Spell".

Without the first time, enter another temple.

Eyes went straight to the temples or places of worship that were regarded as "treasure troves" by the rest of the transcendents, and looked far away, perhaps the core of the ancient city.

There, there is an unimaginable building, towering.

Due to the distance, with Tang Qi's eyesight, he could only vaguely see that it was a pitch-black pyramid with a strange shape.

"Compared with the other side of the world, the pyramids of the Mayans are generally short, but this one ......?"

Just as Tang Qi stood still, thinking for only a moment.

"You're also curious about the mysteries of the Mayans?"

Rena Swinton's voice rang in Tang Qi's ears.

Turning his head, he met a gaze of excitement and anticipation in his scrutiny.

"Although you can't see through me, you treat me as a like-minded person, so you can save me?"

Regarding the scene of being "saved" before, Tang Qi had an explanation in his mind.

Tang Qi didn't think that a transcendent like Rena Swinton, who had been promoted to the "professional level", would make the most undesirable mistake on the mysterious side, the disease of the Virgin.

Even the members of the Church of Light who are chasing the deeds of Our Lady will not casually rescue other transcendents when they are on an expedition, which is basically equated with trouble and finding death.

If you think that Tang Qi is a fellow of the mysterious history, coupled with the strong affinity brought by his current identity as "Primordial Secret Medicine Apprentice", then it is possible.

Of course, if she was caught in a life-or-death decision, she would definitely not take any more risks to save Tang Qi.

Many thoughts flashed through me, but reality only blinked.

Tang Qi nodded in response, and at the same time did not hide the intense curiosity in his eyes.

Boom! Boom!

When the two communicated, there were as many as a dozen bloody eyes that thundered over this time.

However, the two of them did not feel much pressure, and when they were in the whirlpool of that sea before, there was nowhere to hide.

Now, unlike the Chituga, they don't need to worry about the destruction of their tribe, they don't need to fight back, they just need to flee for their lives.

These "Vesares" may have had the flaw of slow speed from the moment they were cast, they possessed terrifying bodies, and terrifying bloody eyes, but it was difficult to kill two fast-moving human transcendents in this ancient city lined with thousands of buildings.

Tang Qi and Rena Swinton turned into two phantoms at the same time, heading towards the depths of the distant ancient city.

In the air, Rena, who was willing to share, spoke again.

"This is the city of Teotim, and the pyramid is probably the [Sky Tower] used by the Mayans to worship the god Ivanab, and there will be exquisite flints, mountains of corn and treasures, the corpses and blood of various strange beasts, and the living hearts of enemies. ”

"The strange disappearance of the Mayans, if there is any truth, must be hidden inside. ”

"The Chituga, that weird old wizard, his purpose must also be to obtain the contents of the Sky Tower. ”

......

Rena Swinton's voice, under her deliberate control, spread throughout the surrounding area.

The other five transcendents also heard clearly.

The expedition is unknown, so share the risk? Sure enough, a smart adventurer, not a brainless archaeologist.

But it's a pity that the rest of the transcendents are immersed in the "Great Harvest".

Although it is an abandoned ancient city, there are a large number of strange objects in various temples, fortresses and other buildings.

Most, lower grade.

But in the face of a city of strange things picked up for nothing, the "wise" transcendent will not choose to enter an extremely dangerous place to explore.

What Rena said, all five people knew.

But it is also so, it is not difficult to guess that as the core of Teotim City, the mystery of the destruction of the Mayans is involved, and even the most stupid people know that there must be unimaginable dangers in it.

Although in the outer area, it was necessary to face the "Vezares" corps.

But the rest of the temples were still within the "primordial limits", and the Vezares had nothing to do but scratch the crab's legs, roar from their belly, and shoot with bloody eyes.

Silently rejected by the five transcendentals, Rena Swinton's face showed no anger, and a sly flash flashed in her same brown pupils, and a voice like a radio came out.

"Legend has it that the Sky Tower has divided the city of Teotim into a unique secret realm, and there is only one way out, which is the Gate of Nothingness inside the Sky Tower. ”

"Whoa, whoa!"

Rena added, the effect was excellent.

Including the earth mother witch who thinks highly of herself, after hearing this, they all made a decision.

The five of them headed towards the pitch-black pyramid in the depths of the ancient city.

It's just that in the process, they still don't forget to enter the temples one after another and collect all kinds of low-level strange things.

It's a pity that they focused on treasure hunting and didn't notice the faint smile on the corner of Tang Qi's mouth at all.

He was sure that there was no such thing as a void gate in the Sky Tower.

The Mayans built the pyramids to worship the gods, and even if they did build a portal, it was also a way to the kingdom of the gods, how could it be a way to leave?

However, none of the five were polymaths, deceived by Rena Swinton, the "intellectual authority", and were powerless to see through it.

Well, no, it's not like no one really sees through it.

I hadn't noticed it before, but as soon as the two of them exploded at speed, they distanced themselves from the other transcendents.

Tang Qi suddenly noticed that there was a unique aura, which came and went, but it was always on the side of the two.

"The Yucatan Assassin, Timothy. ”

He didn't turn his head to check, and while avoiding the bloody light, he didn't forget to say silently in his heart: Congratulations, Mr. Assassin, you don't have to pick up those useless garbage.

The strange things in the city are also the garbage in the city.

Including the old man of the Mamba School, who seemed to be knowledgeable, they all picked it up happily.

Tang Qi didn't warn, because it was definitely useless to know.

"Many adventure stories circulated on the mysterious side, when words such as infighting and anti-eye appear, will always be associated with strange things, inheritance, etc., just like ordinary people lose their intelligence for a short time after seeing the golden divine grace, and the same is true for the transcendent. ”

"Even if the Pope of the Church of Light came here, he couldn't stop them from picking up strange things until they left the ruins and watched a large number of them turn to ashes. ”

When Tang Qi sighed, they were getting closer and closer to the "black pyramid" in the depths of the ancient city.

But at this time, including Timothy in the dark, the three of them slowed down at the same time.

"Boom!"

In the distance, the outline of the pyramid was reflected in the eyes of the three people, and the terrifying aura also invaded the minds of the three people in an instant.

Above the earth, a large, dark sinkhole appeared.

Above is the black pyramid.

Its surface was covered with a large amount of rotting flesh, disgusting pus pockets were born one by one, and then shattered, and green hard hairs grew tenaciously, like blood vessels, eyeballs, sarcomas, and even internal organs, wrapped in green hairs and grew.

Human faces, pulled out of the rotten flesh, laughed wildly, sluggish, screamed...... Rotten and distorted vitality, a strange combination.

Normal life, even just looking at it, will feel the impact like never before.

"Gott~"

Rena Swinton couldn't bear it at first, her body was stunned, her face was extremely ugly, and she bent over and retched.

On the sides of the two, there was a muffled grunt, and Timothy appeared without vomiting, but his face, which could have scraped off the frost, was almost frozen at the moment.

Tang Qi did not pretend to retch, at this moment, under his eyes, strong fragments of information were being born.

[Strange Object: Corrupted Sky Tower.] 】

[Status: Rotting.] 】

[Information fragment 1: The pyramid cast by the ancient Mayans with black meteorite as a material, its existence is to worship the supreme god of the Mayans, Ivanab, every Mayan emperor, the most noble achievement, is to come to the sky tower before death, and offer his heart to the gods. 】

[Information fragment 2: It is rotting due to strong pollution from foreign races......]

......

The fragments of information that were pouring over made Tang Qi's face solemn.

This "Tower of Corruption" is extremely dangerous, and the mere breath of it forces the professional-level Rena and Timothy not to move forward.

Both understand that if they get closer, they too will be polluted.

Tang Qi is not afraid, and he can break through the pollution by using the methods of the Furnace Wizard, or simply letting "Diana" come out and lift the table.

But in his hunch, the time had not yet come.

At this time, the "Vezares" legion behind him was also chasing and killing those greedy transcendents, gradually approaching.

The bloody eyes are about to explode.

Tang Qi's brows furrowed, and another fragment of information flowed past.

"Fragment 3: Every ten minutes, it purifies itself. ”

Immediately, a light appeared in his eyes.
