Chapter 371: Holy Land? Springboard?
Fawkes was watching Philip, and she wanted the people of the Temple of Darkness to leave.
Philip, who was usually polite and graceful, now seemed to be a blind man, and he sat silently, like a stone man who could not move.
If Fox talked to Lin Dong about it, it was an ordinary thing.
Then he would have left.
But no.
According to information from the highest-ranking infiltrators of the Dark Temple, Fawkes and the Round Table faction behind her are ready to exchange 'that secret' with Mr. Wood in exchange for his support and further cooperation. In the Plantagenet Dynasty, the Empress faction was the most powerful, but it had more energy on the European side, and there was a conflict with China, and cooperation was unlikely; the arrogant racists of the Three Lions faction had turned against Mr. Wood, and it was impossible to cooperate even if they did not turn their faces; at present, only the King's faction, that is, the relatively moderate Round Table faction, could succeed.
The Round Table faction uses Fox, a fox girl, as a bridgehead, and succeeds in gaining Mr. Wood's trust.
If you take out that secret.
It is very likely to happen.
As a member of the Dark Temple, although he will not take the initiative to sabotage the cooperation between the Round Table Faction and Mr. Wood, according to the voting decision of the members of the Dark Temple, he must strive for more benefits for the Dark Temple in this cooperation process.
What the Round Table Sect has, the Dark Temple also has, and even the conditions for the Dark Temple will be higher.
"It's a thousand-year-old secret!" Fox glanced at Philip, she was a little helpless, this man seemed to be determined to stay 'joined'.
"The secret of a thousand years?" Lin Dong pretended not to know.
"Actually, it's not just a thousand years, but it's a system. And then slowly carry forward, about a thousand years. Fawkes laughed, "Aren't there similar hermit sects here in the Far East?" Unlike your solo or hidden cultivators, most of us in the West use alliances and contracts. Gather more forces to arm yourself and expand your territory!"
"Do you want to introduce me to the hermitage over there?" Lin Dong already knew that there were hermitages and ascetics in the West, of course, it was not that he knew about it before, but the information given to him by the mysterious No. 39.
"No, it's more secret than that!" Fawkes nodded affirmatively.
"Say, I'm a little interested now!" Lin Dong glanced at Philip and found that his face was as usual, and it seemed that he already knew what Fox was going to say.
"I'm talking about the underworld that the Mayflower group has mastered. Those secrets are but one of the various bases of the Eye of God. In other bases, there must be more secrets, more underground worlds, but they haven't been exposed by the earthquake! Edward II, Josiah, and Little Eric, they are all very good, but are they the real decision-makers of the Eye of God? No, there are people above them, and those people hold the highest secrets! Let's go to Mexigo. Going deep into the ground, what they see and hear is not all they have!" Fox finished, paused, and added, "Just like them." We, the Plantagenet Dynasty, also have several such places in our hands. ”
"How many similar underground worlds?" Lin Dong knew that the big fish had finally swam over.
"In the Plantagenet Dynasty, the Empress faction has mastered four such places. The Three Lions have mastered two, and our Kings have mastered them. Or the Round Table Sect, as you call it behind your back, holds the three 'holy places'. Fox watched. While glancing at Philip.
"We have sixteen of them in the Dark Temple!" Philip began.
"Sixteen, isn't it six?" Fawkes was slightly stunned.
"It's sixteen, it's claimed to be six, and in fact, only six have explored and been confirmed, and the others are either abandoned or fake holy places forged by their predecessors!" Philip nodded.
"Your Dark Temple actually has six true holy places...... Fawkes kind of understood why the Dark Temple has been able to prosper for so long.
"Don't you also have two true holy places?" Philip knew a lot about the Plantagenet Dynasty's information, including the top secrets.
"We only have one big holy place, and the other one is just a small holy place. Fox looked at Lin Dong, who was listening calmly, and suddenly gritted his teeth ruthlessly, and made a decision that even she felt very brave: "Mr. Wood, our King Sect is willing to take out the benefits of the Great Holy Land and share it equally with you, as long as you are willing to fully cooperate with us, then I can directly take you into our Holy Land!"
"Comprehensive cooperation?" Lin Dong groaned slightly: "Can I understand the holy land in your mouth?"
"Of course!" Now that Fawkes has made a decision, he simply strikes while the iron is hot: "The holy land we are talking about is actually a world similar to the bottom of the Mayflower base! Maybe you have seen a similar space, in our holy land, there are mountains, water, and sky, not the underground dark river we walked through not long ago...... I suspect it's another world, but it's also possible that it's subspace, or dimensionality. They are stored on our earth, but we can't see them without certain methods or portals! The flying dragons I mentioned to you before are found in our holy land, and there are more than one! I have seen no less than ten of them with my own eyes!"
"Is Mr. Philip's holy place also a similar space or world?" Lin Dong was silent on the surface, but he almost didn't have joy in his heart.
"Every holy place is different, some are blood-red, some are dark, some are bright, and in it there are heaven, earth, mountains, water, and animals, but there are no people without civilization. I've been in different holy places, and in them, there are only cruel laws of the jungle and survival. Philip explained.
"No wonder you're not surprised at all when you see the monsters under the Mayflower base!" Lin Dong pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
"There's a similar place under the Longkou Mine, hasn't Mr. Wood been there?" Philip laughed.
"It's not quite the same. Lin Dong shook his head: "The dark river under the Longkou Mine Cave is similar to the base of the Mayflower Group, it is not another space, it is just underground!"
"Actually, we suspect that the deepest part of the dungeon, which no one can explore for the time being, is the entrance to your holy land. You've had all sorts of legends before, but there's no lineage in between. It was lost halfway through that caused this historical fault!" Philip certainly didn't know. The dungeon is just a cover-up, and the real dungeon is in another place. And he was wrong, the sealing array of the real underground palace did have a passage to another world.
"In your holy land, apart from animals, are there any legendary angels?" Lin Dong wanted to know if there were angels, demons, vampires, werewolves, and other things.
"There may be holy places in the hands of the church, and in the few holy places in our dark temple, there are no legendary angels, but there are other monsters. Some monsters have very high intelligence, and they are extremely ferocious. Treat us humans as beasts, or hunt and kill and eat hearts and livers, or capture and lock up for fun. Philip said.
"Demon?" Lin Dong frowned.
"I don't know what to call it, but it's ugly, and there's more than one, and there's a myriad of these things in it!" Fox laughed, "On our side, some people call the Holy Land Hell, and they always feel that one day the power of the seal will no longer be there, and the monsters inside will escape." That was the day of the human catastrophe! We used to use overheated weapons, and on the outskirts of the Holy Land, thermal weapons were still effective, but their power was somewhat weakened. If you really enter the Holy Land area, then there is a completely different set of laws in our surface world, and the gunpowder does not burn at all in it. Thermal weapons have no effect on it at all, and guns are just scrap metal! We can't go deeper, we can only go around the periphery!"
"You want to invite me to explore the world inside?" Lin Dong frowned: "There's a big harvest in it?"
"Infinitely big and infinitely small. Fox said. Yan Ran smiled: "Before your genetic potion came out, we didn't know how to develop genetic medicine, why are there so many powerful genetic subordinates? The reason is that we got some monster blood in it and developed them into a potion that can be fused with human genes...... Despite the many side effects, it is undeniable that we can indeed create a large number of genetic humans if we do not care about the sacrifice! Dear Mr. Wood, as long as you are willing to enter into exploration, we can not only take nothing of what you have gained yourself, but also divide what you have obtained together!"
"The world is full of wonders, and I don't doubt what you're saying. Lin Dong groaned slightly: "But I can't fully believe you, after all, what you said is beyond the scope of my exposure." ”
"I didn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes. Fawkes nodded in understanding, "So I'd like to ask you to come with us!"
"Security issues?" Lin Dong pretended to be very interested.
"Well, we can't guarantee the safety issue!Because the monsters in the Holy Land are more dangerous than the previous underground world, especially when entering the Holy Land area, the thermal weapon is ineffective, and we ...... All we can say is to try to keep you safe!Mr. Wood, in the beginning we only explored the periphery, and you have seen the place and feel that it is safe and secure, and then we will enter the real holy land!What do you think of this?" Philip replied honestly.
"Is it difficult to enter?" Lin Dong asked again.
"Well, it's a bit difficult to enter, the doors of the Holy Land are not infinitely open, and each time you enter, you need to be separated by a period of time, some are a year, some are several years, and they are not uniform. And the price to pay for entering the Holy Land is very high!" Philip paused, not saying the price, but Lin Dong could guess a little bit in combination with the intelligence of No. 39.
"What about leaving?" Lin Dong was more concerned about this issue.
"There seems to be no limit to leaving, but assimilated people can't leave!" Philip said, "Some people are willing to be part of a monster because of their excessive pursuit of power, then these people will not be able to leave." ”
"Are you sure it's a world, or is it on our earth?" Lin Dong suddenly asked this question.
"Not sure......" Philip and Fawkes looked at each other and shook their heads in quick succession.
"Is there a sun or a moon?" Lin Dong asked.
"No, but there is a sky! The sky is either clear, cloudy, or gray, or a blood-red place, but there are no stars and no sun! We suspect that there is still an existence on the earth, but it is a different space from us! It has been reported that there is a beautiful paradise under the North Pole, and there is everything in it, maybe it is such a place, and it is also a holy place that we have not discovered!" Philip gave an example of a miracle discovered by the pilots of the rice country.
"There are too many secrets of the earth!" Lin Dong sighed deliberately.
He was now a little sad and a little happy.
From Philip and Fox's descriptions, he was kind of able to guess what it was.
Those holy places are most likely the springboard before the entrance to another world, and they are neither the other world nor the Azure Planet, but a kind of existence between the two as a link between the two.
If that's the case, Lin Dong feels that with his current strength, there should be no problem to break through! If those so-called holy places are like the cultivation world, Lin Dong is not willing to break indiscriminately, after all, it is still the early stage of cultivation, and he has to put the safety of his life first!
It is not so easy to go from the Azure Planet to other worlds.
Any life wants to enter another world.
Must meet the requirements over there.
For example, it is strong enough, or it must operate in accordance with the laws of the world, and it cannot be directly placed in an environment where it cannot survive with flesh and blood...... If it is a springboard and different, it must meet the needs of human survival, it is just a step for people to adapt to the new environment, and safety should be no problem! Lin Dong thought about it before and after, and decided to find a time to explore, maybe there will be a good harvest!
However, this time is certainly not now.
Lin Dong decided to improve himself in all aspects first, and it was not too late to make sure that he had enough means of self-protection before setting off!
"What do you want?" Lin Dong didn't think that Fawkes and Phillip's invitation to their 'secret holy land' was completely unconditional, he had been mentally prepared long before the two stayed. Of course, if the price of the two is too high, I'm sorry, let's still cultivate quietly and lay the foundation for returning to the cultivation world, and the things on the Azure Planet are not in a hurry anyway.
