Chapter 1214: The Mysterious Cross
Shi Lei specially bought a black sportswear, prepared a black mask, and a black baseball cap, basically, his whole person was shrouded in black.
It looks like the night clothes worn by thieves at night in ancient times.
It's just a place for tourists to visit, and there isn't much to keep in it other than the buildings, the most valuable of which is the building itself, and the reliefs on it. And these are almost impossible to steal without using large instruments.
As such, the security measures here are not too tight.
But even so, there are always guards on duty, and the guards on duty here are all equipped with guns, so Shi Lei is still very cautious in using the ancient martial arts card, and patiently chooses a martial arts master who is good at light skills.
This kind of light skill, of course, is not the kind of light skill that can be casually jumped more than ten meters high in martial arts, and the eaves and walls are just the exaggeration of martial arts.
At least, the fence outside the temple couldn't stop Shi Lei at all, he just grabbed the railing and jumped lightly, he had already relied on the strength of his arms to let his body rise into the air, and then easily climbed over the fence.
After entering the temple range, Shi Lei lowered his body and fully exerted his speed.
I dare not say that compared to the world's top sprinters, at least he can sprint at close to 10 meters per second.
Without much effort, Shi Lei entered the main building of the Hephaestus Temple, and then, without hesitation, he held a large stone pillar with both hands, and climbed it easily like an ape.
When he reached the top, he could see more clearly, and there was indeed a gap about the thickness of a finger between the top of the pillar and the edge of the vault.
Shi Lei took out a strong flashlight from his pocket and shone it along the gap, he saw the steel cable inside, and faintly saw something similar to a gear.
With his hands on the vault, Shi Lei pressed his body tightly against the edge of the vault, although it was in the way of facing away from the ground, he still buckled the edge of the vault, like a gecko, gradually moving along the edge of the vault.
The speed is not fast, but this is not a big temple, and Shi Lei still only took more than two minutes to go around.
He didn't find any possible brackets, and Shi Lei knew that the mechanism in this temple was not above the vault.
Then, it should have landed near those stone pillars.
Swimming down from another stone pillar, Shi Lei began to study and search for one stone pillar after another, but until he found it at more than four o'clock in the morning, he still found nothing.
It seems that the mechanism of this mechanism is still very well hidden.
Shi Lei was not in a hurry, it was more than four o'clock, and it was not too far from dawn, he decisively found a corner that he had touched during the day, which was a depression next to the steps outside the temple, where his body could be fully accommodated.
When the time for the temple to open for tours was up, Shi Lei found an opportunity to get out of it, pretending to be a tourist who came to play, leaving the temple and returning to the hotel.
After a good night's sleep, he woke up at night and went straight to dinner, and then, Shi Lei continued to wait until midnight to sneak into the Hephaestus Temple again.
It took almost the whole night to study, Shi Lei still couldn't find the machine smoothly, which made him a little surprised, after all, the mechanical application knowledge he has now has surpassed this world a lot, and even he can't find it, how did those people do it at the beginning?
Shi Lei suspected that he might be looking in the wrong direction.
On the third day, after Shi Lei had dinner in the evening, he sat in the hotel room, put the photos he had taken before on the computer, and studied them carefully, but he didn't gain much.
Sitting on the sofa, Shi Lei closed his eyes and pondered.
Could it be that the mechanism in this temple is not in the temple, but outside the temple?
After twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Shi Lei set off again, entering the temple of Hephaestus for the third time at night.
This time, instead of entering the temple, he searched around the edge of the temple.
The guards of the temple came out to patrol from time to time, which caused a little difficulty for Shi Lei's research.
Shi Lei knew that he had to find the place tonight, otherwise, he wouldn't have enough confidence to come in tomorrow night.
He used the Ancient Martial Arts Card for three consecutive nights, and without the help of the Ancient Martial Arts Card, he really didn't dare to say that he would be able to successfully hide the monitoring and eyes of those guards and enter the temple.
If it really doesn't work, you'll have to wait until June to do it again.
It's just that things didn't go according to people's wishes, at four o'clock in the morning, the sky was already a little cloudy, and Shi Lei still couldn't find any opportunities.
He had no choice but to hide again in the small depression on the side of the steps, and he was surprised that after three days, nothing had been found, which was obviously not a normal thing.
The recessed space on the side of the steps was very narrow, and Shi Lei was nesting in it, barely moving.
I couldn't help but feel a little anxious in my heart, and Shi Lei felt tired earlier than two days before.
He tried to turn around, stretching his legs out a little, but he spun around and hit his head on a bulge on the side of the inside of the depression.
It's almost impossible for light to come in here, so Shi Lei, who has been hiding here twice, doesn't know much about this depression.
Suddenly hit his head, and felt that it was a column-shaped thing, Shi Lei couldn't help but chuckle slightly in his heart.
It can't be such a coincidence, right......
Shi Lei didn't care much, listened attentively, and made sure that there was no sound of guards moving, so he reluctantly took out a strong flashlight from his pocket.
Then, he turned the flashlight to normal light mode and turned it on.
Tilting his head, Shi Lei noticed that at the top of the back of his head, there was indeed a raised object.
After looking closely, Shi Lei found that it seemed to be the shape of a cross that was not too standard.
Crucifix?
This is obviously not something that should have appeared in a Greek temple, it is a symbol of Christianity, that is, it must have been designed by the Byzantine architect, otherwise, how could there be a symbol of Christianity?
In the depression, Shi Lei reluctantly turned his body, and finally faced the cross.
He reached out and tried to break the cross, only to find that he couldn't break it at all.
I tried to push in, but I still didn't move.
Pulled out, still motionless.
However, the sudden appearance of a cross in this ghost place means that there is some kind of special circumstance.
Shi Lei thought that it was possible that his current position made him unable to exert his strength at all, and this cross, as the location of the frame, must have required considerable strength to make it move.
He hesitated for a moment, looked at the sky outside, it was almost completely bright, and after a while, it was estimated that even the sun would be rising.
Shi Lei listened carefully to the movement outside and decided to take a risk.
