Chapter Seventy-Four: Destroying the Heavens
It was determined that Sheldon and the others had fled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Garrison tells Du Shen to come back for revenge in the future.
Du Shen glanced at the densely packed skeletons around him, and said to Garrison, "Uncle, today's movement is too big. It is sure to attract the attention of the temple. Perhaps, Sheldon and the others will take the initiative to betray. What should I do in the secret realm deep in the mine?"
Garrison grew somber thoughtfully. Regardless of whether Sheldon and the others snitched or not, most of the secret realms and elemental pools in the mountain's belly would be exposed. The temple may destroy it, or it may use it outright.
After a long time, Garrison came back to his senses, "What do you suggest?"
Du Shen calmly stated: "Under the elemental pool, there is probably an axis of the earth, right? It's important that it improves my abilities. ”
Garrison is silent for a moment. The so-called axis of the earth is not only the operating center of the elemental pool, but also the essence of the elemental pool. It is a semi-artificial product created by ancient sorcerers with the help of heaven and earth. The Elemental Pool absorbs energy and repairs itself, all thanks to the Earth's Axis.
If you take the "Earth Axis" under the Elemental Pool. Rarely, elemental pools can slowly form new axes over hundreds of years. In most cases, elemental pools will simply be scrapped and reduced to a normal territory.
In the current era, the technology to make earth shafts has long been lost. Du Shen's intentions are tantamount to tyrannical destruction.
Garrison thought for a moment, and stared deeply at Du Shen, "You always surprise me. You know the Axis of the Elements. Du Shen, no matter what you want to do, I will support you! I only hope that you will not make me regret it in the future. Let's go to the mine. ”
"Wait," Du Shen called out to Garrison, who was already walking, "digging into the Elemental Axis will take a lot of time." Let's get everyone out of the city first, and keep the crowd away for a while. so as not to be disturbed. ”
Garrison nods in agreement.
After that, Du Shen yelled and kept threatening Sheldon to show up. Garrison leaps across the city, spreading news to civilians. He tells the frightened citizens that Sheldon has angered a powerful wizard who is searching for revenge. Garrison calls on everyone to flee the city while the wizard is still angry.
With Garrison's assistance and leadership, more and more citizens hurriedly packed their packages. They took advantage of Du Shen's search of other urban areas to sneak out of the city.
In the evening, Jinsha City became almost an empty city.
As the sun set, Du Shen led 1,800 skeletons out of the city and continued to expel the residents around the city.
By nightfall, there were almost no living people in Jinsha City and the surrounding kilometers.
Teresa awoke at dusk. When she opened her eyes, she was lying in Garrison's arms. Teresa soon noticed the skeletons around her, and she asked suspiciously, "What's going on?"
Originally, Du Shen wanted to explain it clearly to Teressa. At least explain the main function of Nai Ho Zhu. However, Garrison had already thought about it. He had already instructed Du Shen to be silent and let him explain.
Teresa asked, and Garrison immediately explained, "Teresa, remember the bald head you met more than a month ago, the Deadpool who claimed to serve the Lich King. In fact, there is no Lich King at all. That bald head, just good luck, got an ancient curiosity by chance. I killed him, took the strange thing, and gave it to Du Shen. The skeleton you see now is the one that Du Shen summoned using that ancient curiosity......"
Garrison's explanation, Du Shen also heard it for the first time. Du Shen was dumbfounded. Although it is strange why Garrison would lie so much, Du Shen is happy to maintain Teresa's favor. So he decides to take Garrison's explanation as the truth.
Garrison's lies are inevitably a slight omission. But Teresa trusts Garrison so much that the girl doesn't think much about it, let alone doubt it.
From this, Teresa really thought that the bald head was the bone wizard that the temple was tracking. Garrison kills him and takes the treasure. At first, unaware of the treasure's potential, Garrison casually gave it to Du Shen. At noon today, when Sheldon and the others tried to capture the three Teressa. Du Shen was lucky enough to give full play to the treasure's greatest ability......
After listening to Garrison's explanation, Teresa asked in frustration, "Uncle, Sheldon, why did they betray?
Garrison was equally gloomy and reassured, "It's not your fault. It's that they've been comfortable for too long, indulging in the glitzy life of drunkenness and gold......"
Garrison's explanation fails to dispel Teresa's frustration. The three fell silent for a long time.
Because too many skeletons followed, Du Sen and the others encountered a lot of minor troubles when they crossed the secret passage. Fortunately, the secret passage and the stone chamber were strong enough, and Du Shen, accompanied by a large number of skeletons, finally squeezed into the hall at the end.
Standing in front of the metal door, Du Shen and the three of them looked for the holes together. Soon, the trio found a dented glyph in a corner of the door. The pattern in the depression is exactly the same as the pendant of the crescent moon pendant.
Finding that the facts matched the conjecture, Du Shen was both relieved and excited: without the key gem that Sheldon and the others had mastered, using Teresa's ancestral crescent moon pendant could also open the door of the secret room.
Du Shen took out the pendant and stuffed the pendant into the recess on the door. The closed door slowly opened.
At first, when Du Shen took out the pendant, Teresa didn't pay much attention to it. When the pendant was embedded in the door, Teresa could see the shape, and she couldn't help but point to the pendant, "What's the matter? That looks like my pendant." ”
"I'll explain," Garrison said again, "Du Shen, hurry up and dig out the Elemental Axis. Teresa and I stayed outside to explain the pendant. ”
Du Shen happily agreed, leading the army of skeletons into the secret room. He commanded 300 of his subordinates to dig into the pool with his bone sword.
Outside, in the hall, Garrison and the two are squeezed into a corner by the surging skeletons. Garrison resorted to sorcery to block out the transmission of voices, "Teresa, I'll tell you now." Don't let Du Shen know yet. I suspect that Du Shen is your blood relative. ”
After explaining the significance of the pendant's change, Garrison reminded, "It's uncertain whether Du Shen is a descendant of Shadow Castle or not. But later, there's a chance to verify ......," Garrison whispered.
After explaining, Garrison was silent for a moment before he said, "Teresa, if it turns out later, Du Shen is really your blood relative." If you don't hate it, you might as well marry Du Shen. ”
"Uncle......" Theresa protested inexplicably.
Garrison doesn't explain, and moves on to something else.
The excavation of the Axis of the Elements is very difficult. One is the obstruction caused by the pool water, and the other is the lack of tools at hand. Fortunately, the skeleton has a lot of strength, and it doesn't get tired. In addition, Du Shen prioritizes efficiency and destructive excavation. The project continued to progress.
Spend the whole night part. Thanks to Garrison and Teressa's assistance. Du Shen emptied the pool, and finally found a thick crystal pillar at a depth of twenty or thirty meters from the bottom of the pool.
The main body of the crystal pillar is thicker than a human being, more than ten meters long, as if there are branches of the branches. The branches are shorter and tapering, but at least they are arm thick.
Du Shen secretly bargained with the "shadow" in the pendant space. After agreeing to pay a labor fee in the future, Shadow helps Du Shen put the heavy Elemental Axis into the storage space.
The axis of the elements succeeded, but Du Shen secretly made a difficulty. According to the research of the previous life, high-purity shaft crystals can be used to expand and upgrade Nahe beads. Of course, it is limited to the low-level stage of the Naho Pearl, and it needs to be paired with some other precious materials.
The problem is that the elemental axis in the pendant is obviously not of high purity. And with the technology of this world, as well as Du Shen's strength at this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to purify the shaft crystal to meet the demand.
Du Shen made a mistake while climbing up to the ground along the rope. He asked Garrison, "Uncle, what's going on with the other door in the hall, that secret realm? ”
Garrison explains: Uncharted realms are naturally occurring and have the opposite of elemental pools. The ancestors discovered that the light energy born in the secret realm could help the human body absorb the pool water, and they have been using it ever since. As for the specific principle, as well as the operating mechanism of the secret realm. Garrison is unclear due to missing information.
Du Shen thought for a while, and gradually came to grasp: "Uncle, I want to bring the Elemental Axis to the secret realm. ”
Garrison suddenly became angry, but quickly suppressed his anger, "Although, I think it will cause great loss and waste. Still, if you know what you're doing, do it!"
Teresa on the side originally wanted to persuade Du Shen not to waste the treasure in vain. But hearing Garrison's words, the girl relents just in time.
Du Shen only assured that he was not messing around. He removed the pendant and opened the door to the secret realm. Du Shen communicated the shadow and put the shaft crystal in the hall. He commanded dozens of skeletons, lifted the crystal, and slowly stepped into the secret realm. Du Shen followed.
It's that weird feeling again, the whole world is weird, and the images are distorted. Du Shen found that he had just stepped into the secret realm. The shaft crystal in the hands of the skeletons instantly vaporized, rising a thin black smoke. The black smoke didn't drift far and dissipated.
Du Shen was about to instruct the skeletons to continue deeper. Suddenly there was a flash of cash around him. There are a lot of golden lights, turning into all kinds of monsters. The monster flared its teeth and claws, and flew in anger one after another.
Du Shen felt that the target of all golden monsters was the axis crystal. He could feel the monster's hatred. He hurriedly released his skeleton subordinates to defend against the attack.
The strength of all the monsters is slightly stronger than Du Shen. They pounced and bitten, destroying many skeletons one after another. However, there are quite a few skeletons around Du Shen. Moreover, at this moment, there are still a large number of skeletons, going outside and getting in, intending to surround Du Shen.
If the monster wants to destroy the axis crystal, it naturally needs to pass through these skeletons surrounding Du Shen first. The monsters instinctively attacked. Those skeletons that surround Du Shen far away belong to the control name extra. Although they are no longer under Du Shen's command, when they are attacked, they will instinctively launch a counterattack, thus forming a block.
So, Du Shen stood next to the axis crystal, silently watching the golden monster being blocked by his own skeleton army, and also silently watching the axis crystal continue to vaporize and evaporate, becoming smaller and smaller.
