Chapter Ninety-Two: Underground Ruins

After the battle, the two of them searched for it in the cave, and they could be regarded as turning out some loot, in addition to the extraordinary gems condensed on the bodies of the dead demonic beasts, the pair of long fangs were also excellent quality materials.

[Dragon Gem] (Evaluation: Perfect Gold Level): Condensed from dead monsters, because the battle process is extremely short, and the refining techniques are superb, most of the power is preserved. It can be used to craft transcendent creations and potions.

[Crimson Fang] (Evaluation: Rare Gold Level): The hardest part of the Crimson Devil Pig's body, with a strong heavy attack effect, it can break gold and stone with a slight collision, and is suitable for crafting heavy weapons.

Immediately after that, the two found a passage in the corner of the cave, which seemed to have been excavated by the demon pig, and the deep passage led to the underground.

Lorain Hill pulled Nia and rode the breeze to slowly descend from the passage in the cave, while Nia shot small fireballs downwards to illuminate the dark underground.

The Demon Pig has expertise in both rock and fire, and digging through the hard mantle is not difficult for it, but the depth of the passage is becoming more and more surprising.

At first, Lorain Hill and Nia thought they would be at the bottom, but in fact, they didn't see the end for a long time, and the air around them gradually became stuffy and hot.

If it weren't for the fact that both of them were transcendents and had relatively strong physiques, ordinary people would have fainted due to high temperature and lack of oxygen at this depth.

The passage stretched down for about 4-5 kilometers, and when she reached the bottom, the scorching breath made Nya a little dizzy and unconscious. However, the scene in front of her suddenly surprised her, and then she was deeply shocked.

The vast dome and square stone pillars, the towering giant stone statues, the weathered and huge dragon-like skeletons, all impact people's cognition.

The two of them landed on the extremely flat stone square, a large square that can accommodate more than 3,000 people, surrounded by six tall diamond-shaped stone pillars, the statue at the top of the stone pillar is like a square human shape, the humanoid statue has closed eyes, hands are wrapped, and the forehead has a pattern similar to the sun.

Directly in front of the square are huge stone pillars that stretch forward, like piers, on which the bridge deck originally had a bridge deck, but now most of them have collapsed, and only a few remains. At the end of the pillar is a magnificent statue sitting upright on a throne, like a human figure that has been magnified thousands of times.

He put his hands on the armrests of the throne and looked ahead, behind which was a huge circle with delicate patterns, and the faint light inside extended outward along the lines, like the sun.

In front of the giant statue is a tall and square altar, on which are placed the bones of a giant dragon, some of which have been broken, some of the bones are still scattered under the stage, and the dust and footprints scattered in the middle should have been destroyed not long ago.

"Is this a relic of the Giant's Court?"

Looking at the rugged and atmospheric building, Lorain Hill spoke his guess. The architectural style is basically square, only the corners will be rounded, and everything is extremely large, not only the human form on the throne, but also the other stone chairs that are empty next to the throne, which do not seem to be used for humanoid creatures today.

"Unbelievable." Nia shook her head, and her consciousness slowly turned back.

Looking at the scattered and weathered dragon-shaped bones, the two guessed that the demon pig had absorbed the dragon's magic power to advance in a short period of time, and it was also thanks to the extraordinary talent of this demon pig that it was able to dig such a deep passage that stretched all the way to this ancient ruin.

The age of giants and dragons was still before the First Age, and due to the lack of clear records of that time, no one can tell how long that era existed, whether it was tens of thousands of years or hundreds of thousands of years.

But scholars of both elves and humans have a consensus that this era existed for at least 50,000 years. There have been several great battles between giants and dragons, and they have profoundly changed the world.

According to the murals excavated during the archaeological period combined with some continental landform discoveries, some scholars speculate that the sighing mountain range was originally continuous, and there was no canyon in between. The dragon of destruction, known as Bahamut, spewed a torrent of energy, directly piercing the continuous mountain range, creating a passage canyon in the center of the continent that ran through the east and west.

It is hard to imagine that the canyon, which is more than 10 kilometers wide and 2,000 kilometers long, is not formed naturally, but is caused by a legendary dragon, and this transcendent existence is also classified as Sequence 10.

Despite their existence in legends and long since no one has seen their true faces, the existence of these Sequence 10 still leaves traces of their activities in this world, making the living beings believe that Sequence 10 at least once existed, and that the power of the gods is enough to destroy this fragile world.

When did these beings disappear and why they disappeared, no one knows, there are different theories, some speculate that they died together after a certain war, and the fragments of the gods are scattered in the world, some say that they abandoned this life and went to other worlds, and some speculate that those chaotic phantoms are the obsession of the dead gods.

The king of giants with his back to the sun, armed with a flaming spear, stands on the top of the mountain and rock, fighting the blood-winged dragon who holds the moon in his arms, and the dragon breathes out the icy breath of frost, intending to freeze the whole world.

Such murals have been excavated in the ruins more than once, and what is even more amazing is that similar murals have been found even on another continent thousands of miles away. It's just that the shape of the characters and the dragon in the picture has changed.

On the Western Continent, the giants are more upright and brave, while the dragons have sharp and dense teeth, which are full of magic. The Eastern Continent is a giant grinning and wicked, trying to scorch the world to destruction, while the dragon is graceful, slender and benevolent, intending to extinguish the flames and save the world with rain and dew.

-----------------

The ruins have gone through an unknown amount of time and time, many of the items have decayed, aged and evaporated, and Lorain Hill and Nia have been searching the ruins for a long time but have found nothing else to use.

Finally, the two stood on top of the giant stone statue, observing the patterns on the huge round wheel behind the statue.

"Loraine, you see, the stone statue also has a pattern on its forehead." Nia greeted from the sidelines.

Lorain Hill walked over and looked at the surface of the weathered stone statue, the original delicate lines had peeled off and weathered, and she gently brushed the dust on it with her hand, feeling the lines in it.

The burning sun is surrounded by a pair of wings, and if you look closely, you will feel that the wings are like the rays of the sun, and each feather is a ray of light.

For some reason, even though she had never seen this pattern, a feeling of nostalgia rose in her heart, gently lingering.
