Chapter 1398: Ancient Ruins
"Let me see." Li Min stretched out his hand, and Kratos immediately handed her the treasure map.
Li Min spread out the treasure map and stared at it for a long time, then turned it over and looked at it, and then cast a firm spell, and said in surprise: "This treasure map should not have been drawn by those sand thieves!" ”
"How so?" Murong Feng said in surprise.
Li Min rubbed the corner of the treasure map with his hand to reveal a blurred line of handwriting, and explained, "This is a lost ancient script, my steadfast spell shows that it is more than a thousand years old, and those sand thieves obviously can't live that long. ”
Although there is no shortage of immortal races on the Continent of Sanctuary, it is clear that a group of sand pirates composed of humans are not in the ranks.
"Eighty percent of this treasure map was looted by these sand thieves from somewhere." Tia guessed.
Shen Lao was greedy and wondered: "Then since it is a treasure map, why don't these sand thieves dig it themselves?" I don't believe those snakes can't find a treasure spot because they're not familiar with the terrain. ”
Kratos said directly: "Guess what to do so much, and you will know when you get to the place and go directly to see it." Maybe you can dig up some treasures! ”
Everyone is not the master of money, and exploring and hunting for treasures is just for fun. And it was a stopper, so Murong Feng didn't object.
"Since you're going on a treasure hunt, let's speed it up." Murong Feng immediately destroyed the horse and accelerated, anyway, there were more than a hundred good horses contributed by those sand thieves, so the six of them could completely change horses while running, and they didn't care about any horsepower at all.
Everyone hurried all day, and finally at dusk, they saw a thin black line appear at the end of the vast sea of sand.
"It's almost there!" Kratos poured a sip of water and said excitedly, "Ahead is the Taymor Mountains. ”
"Speed up and try to get to the bottom of the mountain before sunset." Murong Feng urged, and one rolled over and landed on the other. Everyone also changed horses one after another and accelerated all the way, and finally rushed to the front of the Taimo Mountains before the last rays of afterglow disappeared.
As shown on the map, the Taimo Mountains run through the entire western continent from the north to the south, from the Land of Fear in the north to the Twin Seas in the south, just in the southwest corner of the continent.
And over the Tymo Mountains is the Kingdom of Canduras, where Tyrell fell in the first place.
Shen Laowan drove the horses to a small river at the foot of the mountain to rest, while Kratos took the map and went deep into the mountains to find the treasure spot.
Murong Feng and the others set up a bonfire on the spot to make food.
After a long time, the smell of meat was fragrant, but Kratos didn't return.
Murong Feng wasn't worried that something had happened to him, but in order to prevent accidents, he still sent Dante out to look for him.
As a result, Dante went to look for it not long before he returned with Kratos.
"Met a monster?" Murong Feng caught a glimpse of Kratos covered in blood, but the dragon walked in a tiger's step, obviously the blood stain was not his.
"Sir, guess what I found!" Kratos said excitedly: "The ruins of an ancient dungeon, but there are a group of monsters entrenched in it, no wonder those sand thieves have treasure maps but don't dare to go in to find treasures." ”
"Let's go wash first." Murong Feng pointed to the small river not far away and ordered, "It's time to start eating." ”
"Okay." Kratos immediately ran over and jumped into the river, splashing back, churning and then soaking back. Then he held a large piece of barbecue meat handed to him by Murong Feng and said while eating: "That underground ruin is very large, I almost got lost just by turning around the door, but I found something interesting. ”
Kratos said as he took out a broken pottery statue from his waist bag and handed it to Murong Feng.
Murong Feng took the pottery statue and looked at it, and immediately raised his eyebrows: "This is the statue of the evil god?!" ”
"That's right!" Kratos nodded repeatedly, "I also found many of the same pottery statues in the ruins, but those statues were so big that I could only pick up the smallest one." Do you know where this evil god comes from? ”
The clay statue held by Murong Feng looked very similar to the alien queen, but the appearance was even more hideous and terrifying, and it had a pair of huge demonic horns. Even if there is no breath left on the broken statue, looking directly at the statue still gives people a shivering feeling of facing fear.
It's a pity that the statue is so badly damaged, even Murong Feng can't tell where this statue comes from, but it feels a little familiar.
"Well, can you show me?" Li Min leaned over and said with a slight change in expression.
"Yes." Murong Feng handed it to the statue, but Li Min waved his hand and said, "You can just put it on the ground, I don't dare to touch this evil god statue." ”
Murong Feng rested on the ground and asked, "Do you know the origin of this thing?" ”
"It's a bit of an impression, as if I've seen it in an ancient book." Li Min frowned carefully and recalled for a long time and didn't remember the origin of this evil god statue, so he could only shake his head and say: "I can't remember, but I'm sure that this evil god should have a great background, maybe there are clues in that ruin!" ”
Murong Feng originally only had the mentality of not taking it for nothing, but he didn't expect such an unexpected gain. Then he ordered: "Then let's go to the underground ruins later, Shen Lao is greedy for you to stay and watch the horses." ”
"Yes, sir." Shen Lao was greedy and gladly responded.
After dinner, the group set off for the underground ruins, with Kratos leading the way and quickly leading the group to a valley.
"The entrance to that underground ruin is in the valley, and I also searched for a long time to find it." Kratos and Dante are the first to open the way, one after the other, with a plate axe.
Murong Feng protected Li Min, the only spellcaster in the team, while Tia was in charge of guarding the rear.
Soon, the group went deep into the windy valley and came to a huge stone gate.
The cliffs and door beams on both sides of the stone gate were carved with various murals and sculptures, and everyone was on guard, and Li Min stepped forward to translate and finally concluded that these murals and sculptures should have been formed six thousand years ago or even older, but her firm spells could only speculate how much.
"Go in and take a look." Murong Feng winked, and Dante immediately stepped into the stone gate with his sword, followed by Kratos with an axe.
Murong Feng was the third to enter the stone gate, followed by Li Min and Tia.
After the five of them entered the stone gate, there was a long passage, but with each step forward, they could feel the temperature drop sharply.
After advancing less than 100 meters, everyone was already exhaling and drinking mist.
"Illumination!" Li Min raised his staff at the right time and cast a rudimentary light technique to illuminate the dim passage, but the light could only illuminate a range of about five steps, and it was swallowed up by darkness any further.
Kratos lowered his voice and reminded, "Be careful under your feet and on the top of your head, I came here before and encountered a large swarm of disgusting bugs. ”
As soon as Kratos finished speaking, everyone heard a commotion from the depths of the passage.
Dante, who was at the forefront, immediately lit up with a long sword and the flame runes on the blade, instantly reflecting a swarm of scalp-tingling insects.
"Kratos, how did you get through here before?" Tia asked with a slightly pale face.
Kratos laughed and said, "Cover your ears first!" Then I saw him step forward and take a deep breath!
Everyone couldn't guess what he was going to do, so they all covered their ears!
"Roar!! A roar like thunder instantly resounded through the passage, directly killing countless insects.
Murong Feng, who was covering his ears, had to sigh that this barbarian's roaring skills were all the same as the lion's roar skills.
Kratos shook his throat to death and countless insects, but there were still a few tenacious crawlers in front of Dante, and then they were all charred by Dante's sword with a cool face.
Kratos reminded, "Watch out for the floor ahead, there's a flap trap!" ”
Dante paused his feet, took his long sword and tapped the seemingly unharmed floor tiles, and heard a click The whole floor tile suddenly turned over, and anyone who stepped on it unknowingly might have fallen into a deep pit full of thorns.
Dante jumped over with a single leap, and Kratos jumped over with a tiger jump. This little trap naturally can't help but be followed by the three girls.
Tia couldn't help but ask, "How did Kratos get out of this trap when he first came in?" ”
Kratos laughed, "I didn't hide it!" However, I was quick with my eyes, and I climbed up again with one foot in the air and directly grabbed the wall with my bare hands. By the way, there were several more insidious traps ahead that almost killed me. ”
When everyone heard this, they all had black lines on their faces.
Led by Kratos, the reckless man, the crowd was able to pass through a passage full of traps and come to a huge underground ruins that had been dug entirely by hand.
It's just that the turbid air is filled with a strong smell of blood, and everyone is staring at Kratos speechlessly as they look at the corpses of monsters that are almost piled up in the streets and alleys.
Kratos scratched his head and smiled: "You can't blame me, it's that these monsters are too tendonous, and they rushed to hit me with an axe even if they knew they were going to die, and I couldn't help but fight back." ”
"I see that you are so passionate that you are so hot that you even forget about time." Li Min rolled his eyes and said with disdain.
Kratos smirked and scratched his head, quickly changing the subject: "I found a large statue of the evil god in the center of this underground ruin, and it is still very well preserved. ”
"Lead the way." Murong Feng commanded.
Kratos immediately swaggered ahead of the group with a plate axe to open the way, but there was nothing to do, because almost all the monsters entrenched in this underground ruins had been destroyed by him alone.
The group walked through a messy aisle, on both sides of the aisle was an ancient stone house covered with moss, and the more you went to the center of the ruins, the more advanced the stone houses became, until everyone came to the center of the ruins and saw a stone temple more than 100 meters high.
Kratos pointed to the ancient stone temple and said, "The statue of the evil god is in that temple." ”
As soon as everyone entered the huge square in front of the temple, they immediately felt that their surroundings were completely new, not only did the floor pave with bricks without the slightest dust, but even the outer walls of the temple did not appear to be in the slightest dilapidation.
"Don't tell me you took the time to clean this place?" The attentive Li Min immediately discovered the abnormality here.
Kratos shook his head and said, "Do you think I'm such a boring person?" This hellish place was so clean when I came, and those monsters seemed to be so afraid of this temple that they didn't dare to approach it even a step closer. ”
Murong Feng asked, "What else is there in this temple besides the statues?" ”
"Nothing." Kratos led the way up the steps of the temple and said, "You can see when you go in and take a look, this temple looks big from the outside, but in fact there are no pillars inside, and there is a statue of an evil god inside." ”
Everyone cautiously walked into the temple under the leadership of Kratos, and saw that as Kratos said, the entire interior of the temple was completely four walls plus a high dome, and there was no other superfluous decoration and ornamentation, except for a huge statue of the evil god that was almost the height of the temple dome stood in the center of the temple.
Moreover, this evil god statue is very well preserved, coupled with its huge size, it immediately made everyone who entered the temple feel a huge sense of oppression.
And Murong Feng, who was able to get a glimpse of the complete evil god statue, finally guessed the true origin of this evil god!
"Diablo!" Murong Feng took a deep breath and muttered.
"What did you say?" Li Min stood next to Murong Feng and asked in surprise.
Murong Feng said calmly: "I know the origin of this evil god statue, which is Diablo, the King of Fear. ”
The faces of everyone changed drastically, because the name of this Hell Demon King was almost a household name in the Shelter Continent, and many young people must have grown up listening to various terrifying legends about Diablo, the King of Fear, even if they didn't know about the Battle of the Gods 10,000 years ago.
"Are you sure?" Li Min said with a pale face.
Murong Feng nodded, took out the "Star Traveler's Travels" and turned to the page about Diablo, the true body of the King of Fear Diablo was on the page, and it was almost exactly the same as the statue of the evil god in front of him.
Murong Feng said indifferently: "It seems that we have strayed into an ancient secret base of cultists. ”
Li Min proposed: "Lord Yue, this evil god statue can't be kept, lest it leave a disaster in the world!" ”
Murong Feng didn't care, anyway, she was not familiar with the big pineapple, so she said directly: "Okay." Then he pulled out a grenade engraved with magic patterns from his bag.
Everyone looked at them with curiosity, but they heard Murong Feng say: "Don't look small about this thing, but it can directly raze this underground ruin to the ground." ”
Everyone shuddered in shock, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Murong Feng adjusted the timer, directly pressed the detonation button and threw it under the base of the statue.
"What are you still doing? Run! Murong Feng turned around and ran away.
Everyone's faces turned green with fright for a while, they didn't expect Murong Feng to do what he said, and he was so straightforward, and after reacting, they ran away.
A group of five people came in cautiously, but when they went out, they ran wildly!
Kratos took a step to catch up with Murong Feng, and asked heavily, "How long will it take for Lord Yue's iron bump to explode?" ”
Murong Feng thought about it with a relaxed expression and said, "If you count thirty more, it should explode." ”
Kratos' face turned white in an instant, put away the axe, rushed directly to Li Min, who had the slowest legs and feet, and carried her all the way.
