Chapter 289: Demigod and Source Crystal

Entering the palace, Wren had never seen a building with such a large interior space.

The floor of the hall is smooth as a mirror, spotless, and the walls of the 100-meter-high walls seem to be made of gold, carved with magnificent murals, mainly about a god with a majestic body like a mountain, holding a spear and a shield, slaying dragons, fighting demons, and fighting other gods.

Figuratively, this deity is clearly Anham, the god of giants.

He was not alone, with legions of giants on his side.

These giants come from different branches and come in all shapes and sizes, but the ones that stand out are the dozens of Titans who wield thunder and lightning.

Several of these Titans performed as well as gods.

In the middle of the hall is a circular floor that is completely transparent, like a glass structure, and can directly see the space underground.

There's a massive furnace in motion, from which pipes of energy stretch out, and a raging current flows in all directions.

Wren glanced at the interface of his mobile phone, and the density of the thunder element reached 70, which was simply terrifying.

The glow of the furnace illuminated the hall above, enveloping the entire palace in a divine aura, combining antiquity and grandeur, with lightning bursting out and thunder roaring from time to time, as if in the kingdom of the gods.

However, all of this attracted Wren's attention more than the figure sitting across the hall.

It's a titan giant.

He sat in a huge chair made of metal, and just sitting there, he was already taller than the Titans he had just seen.

If you stand up, it will definitely be more than twenty meters!

Giants and dragons have one thing in common, the bigger the size, the stronger the strength, and the titan giants who are more than twenty meters tall are not often found in epic records.

Just at the first glance, Wren felt a great sense of oppression and almost ran out of breath.

I look like an ant standing in front of an elephant.

Small and fragile.

The giant's skin took on a strange metallic sheen, like the color of bronze, and instead of wearing armor like a normal storm giant, he was draped in a loose white robe, very casual, as if he had wrapped a curtain around his body two or three times, and then tied it with a belt.

He also had no shoes on, and was barefoot on the ground.

The Titan's face was like that of a middle-aged man, and he did not look old, but he revealed a vicissitudes of life, and his long golden hair and the ends of his beard were a little gray, as if he had existed for a long time.

His eyes were full of wisdom, like a wise polymath.

The Titan Elder's posture was very relaxed, his back rested lightly on the chair, one hand on the armrest, the other hand on the side of his cheek, and looked at Wren who came in, his eyes full of interest.

Wren had long since closed the Eye of the Soul.

Even without the soul eye, he can sense the horror of this Titan Elder, stronger than his own teacher, and the level is higher than that of the Holy Soul Wizard;

Although the divinity is extremely weak, it is enough to show that the Elder Titan is already a demigod!

The power of a demigod, for someone else, even a legend will tremble.

The Will of Truth made Wren's face look as usual, completely unaffected.

He followed Bremet and saluted the Titan Giant's chest, and said respectfully, "Wren Augustus has seen Elder Solim. ”

At the same time, I thought to myself, there was no Solim among the twelve Titans demigods in the Second Age, and I don't know when Solim appeared?

"Wren, you speak the language of giants well, and your level of knowledge is beyond your years. ”

Solim's voice echoed through the hall, however, he spoke a very standard imperial Chinese, that is, Orion, like a human who grew up in the Empire.

"The elder has won the prize. ”

Wren owes a debt and notices a detail.

Solim's imperial Chinese standards are too much, and one of the words was used only at the beginning of the empire, and the accent is also different from now, which seems a little strange.

Judging from this, this Titan elder learned ** Chinese at least two thousand years ago!

"It's not good for young people to be too modest. ”

Solim stood up, his massive body like a small mountain, forming a large shadow, and said, "I have witnessed the rise and fall of many nations, and the birth and extinction of many species. For thousands of years, the character of the mortal race has not changed, and they always like to hide their true thoughts, but in fact, this is unnecessary in the face of absolute power. ”

He stepped forward as he spoke, and the hall shook slightly.

With each step forward, the Elder Titan's size shrank in a circle, and by the time he said "unnecessary", his figure had shrunk to the size of a normal human, turning into a stout middle-aged man in his early two meters, only half a head taller than Wren.

As Solim got smaller, he looked a little younger.

With bronze skin, a muscular figure, a faint smile on his face, and a gentle gaze, he exudes an irresistible charm.

He walked up to Wren, thoughtful in his eyes, nodded, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the will of truth, no wonder I can't see through your mind." What did you think of just now?"

Wren calmly replied, "I'm guessing the elder's age. ”

"Oh?" Solim didn't get angry, but became interested, "How old do you think I am? ”

That's not a small challenge.

From a mortal perspective, the lifespan of a demigod is almost eternal, and if nothing happens, it can even live for tens of thousands of years!

Bremet next to him shook his head depressedly, "Solim, why didn't you let me guess when we first met?"

"Haha...... Solim laughed heartily, "it's too easy for an archaeologist, I don't want to give you a gift for nothing." ”

Wren tilted his head, a pensive expression.

His gaze swept over the palace halls, carefully observing every detail, and finally slowly looked at Solim, as if trying to find clues that could guess the age of the Elder Titan.

Both Solim and Bremet were unimpressed, apparently not thinking that Wren would be able to guess accurately.

Actually, Wren really couldn't guess.

He could only tell that Solim was over 2,000 years old, but he couldn't figure out whether he was 3,000 years old, 3,500 years old, or 5,000 years old.

If you are a true archaeologist or polymath, you may be able to find out with some time.

But Wren can't do it yet.

However, he has soul eyes. Although you can't directly observe Solim's soul, you can feel it little by little from the corner of your eye.

In the field of vision, Solim's body bloomed with a thousand lights!

Wren didn't dare to look at it with his eyes at all, even if it was just a glimpse, which made his soul tremble. He endured the discomfort, remained silent on the surface, and after a few seconds of careful experience, he quickly closed the eye of his soul.

Over the years, Wren has used the Soul Eye countless times, and he has long been at it.

With only the residual power of the target soul, he can also make accurate judgments.

This is like the rings of a tree are so clear, just look at the outermost rings, you can calculate how many rings the tree has, you don't need to see the whole picture.

"Three thousand nine hundred and fifty years old. Wren was quick to give an answer.

Solim was stunned.

Bremitt's eyes were even more incredulous, and even if he was allowed to speculate, it would not be possible to guess more accurately than Wren.

Born at the end of the last epoch, Solim completely witnessed the Abyssal Demon's invasion of Ehrenus, destroying the pattern of the three races of elves, dwarves and orcs, and escaped to the storm plane to survive, until the advanced Titans returned to survive the dark millennium, witnessing the rise of humanity and the establishment of an empire.

To this day, Solim will live to be 4,000 years old in a few decades!

"On what basis did you base your calculations?" asked Bremet curiously.

Wren spread his hands, "I'll guess." ”

Both the dwarves and the Titan elders were unconvinced, and Solim nodded half in amazement and half in approval, and a half-palm-sized badge appeared on his hand.

The material of the badge resembles that of stone, with obscure runes carved in the middle, shaped like zigzag lightning bolts.

"This is the Thunderbolt Runestone, the unique creation of our Storm Giants, and carrying it on your body can increase the speed and power of the Thunderbolt Spell. ”

Solim briefly introduced two sentences and handed the object over.

When Wren came into contact with the runestone, he immediately figured out its effect, and the casting acceleration and power were increased by about 10%, which can be called the best equipment, at least worth tens of thousands of gold shields!

is worthy of being a demigod, and he is so generous.

Wren hurriedly put it away and said with a sincere face: "Thank you for the gift from the elders." ”

"I made it out of my hand, if you like it. Solim said disapprovingly, and looked at Wren twice, "I heard from Bremet that you are a student of the Holy Soul Wizard?"

"Yes. Wren responded, knowing that business was coming.

"I've heard the name of Anthy Wodaus, and his spell-casting philosophy is a bit unique and inspires me a lot. Solim commented in a very flat tone, and continued: "You are his student, and you are also an earl, you must have a high status in the Orion Empire, and you also have many friends?"

Wren didn't understand what a demigod was asking for, so he could only nod his head and admit:

"It's okay. ”

Elder Titan seemed a little dissatisfied with this answer, but he didn't care, "You don't have to be nervous, I just want to make some deals with you." ”

"Deal?" Wren's heart moved.

Solim took out a crystalline piece of silver ore and asked, "Have you ever seen this mineral?" in Giants, we call it 'Source Crystal', and if you can collect it, you can trade it with me, and I will take as many as you want." ”

Wren took the ore and started very heavy.

The metallic touch takes effect immediately, and the structural properties of the mineral in the hand are clearly understood, and it is very dense, between refined iron and meteorite iron, but it is not particularly hard.

It is also very conductive to energy, which makes it impossible to use it to make magical equipment.

However, Wren sensed something.

This kind of mineral, called source crystal, radiates energy all the time, if you put it in the dark, you will definitely be able to see it emitting a faint light, and the inside of the small mineral contains an unimaginably huge amount of energy, just like the radioactive ore in the previous life.

Is Source Crystal a nuclear fuel?

Wren had never seen the metal in Allenus, nor had he heard of its existence, but that didn't stop him from making a guess.

His gaze fell to the huge furnace beneath his feet, under the transparent floor.

Solim noticed Wren's movements, his expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Wren, you are more intelligent than I thought. ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved, and a bronze plate fell into Wren's hand.

Wren saw that the bronze plate was inscribed with lightning bolts, written in Orion, a list of transactions that listed what Source Crystals could be exchanged for, and how many of them correspondedly were.

He skimmed through it cursory, and his heart immediately became hot.
