Chapter 331: Ancient Legends

"How can you be sure it's a treasure cave? What if it's just a naturally occurring cave? Mu Xue covered her head and said stiffly.

"It's better to go in and take a look, it's better than staring here now." With a wave of his hand, Murong Feng spilled out three bee-type scouts and burrowed into the cave located halfway up the mountain. Soon, a three-dimensional tunnel projection appeared in front of everyone.

I saw that this cave tunnel is tortuous and complicated, the widest part can accommodate three people walking side by side, but the narrowest part can only allow one person to drill through, obviously not a man-made passage.

Everyone showed disappointment after seeing the projection of the scout, obviously this tunnel was really guessed correctly by Mu Xue that it was a naturally formed karst cave.

Murong Feng, who was overjoyed, could only sigh lightly and was about to summon the scout back, when suddenly the scout that flew at the front came back with a new discovery.

I saw that the cave tunnel extended down for nearly 300 meters, and then suddenly came to a spacious rectangular space!

As the projection revealed every detail of this underground space, everyone gasped!

This is a huge underground space with a height of more than 30 meters and a length and width of 100 meters, and at a glance, you can see that it is definitely a man-made excavated ruin!

Murong Feng immediately chose the scout device to send back the scene picture, and then a light screen popped open, showing a quiet underground cave room appearing in front of everyone!

"Looks like we've been favored by Lady Luck!" Murong Feng smiled and said, "You can see that the exit of this underground ruin is just under the boulder from before, obviously there is indeed an entrance there. ”

"And what's going on with this cave tunnel?" Everyone was amazed.

"This should be a vent!! Su Yao sighed: "The master who built this underground ruin must have calculated this natural cave before starting to build it!" ”

"Hahaha, rich, rich! What a big underground ruin. I don't know how much gold and silver treasure is hidden inside! Jiang Binyu's eyes lit up.

Mu Xue snorted coldly: "If we want to get rich, we will also get rich!" What's the matter with you? ”

Jiang Binyu suddenly cried and said with a sad face: "Xiaoxue is not as ruthless as you." Anyway, I have come all the way without merit and hard work. You can't cross the river and tear down the bridge, right? ”

"I'll cross the river and tear down the bridge! What can you do with me? Mu Xue snorted coldly.

Su Yao shook his head helplessly and stepped forward and said, "Mu Xue, money is something outside the body, don't hurt the harmony of your family for these things." Su Yao turned to Jiang Binyu and ordered, "King of the Night Blade, you are a heavily armored soldier, so please go ahead and explore the way." ”

Jiang Binyu immediately stepped forward and flattered Su Yao: "Miss Su, you are really a female bodhisattva, you can rest assured, I will protect you no matter what danger you encounter!" Then he walked towards the cliff with a generous and righteous look, not realizing that he was being used as cannon fodder by the female bodhisattva in his mouth.

Because the entrance to the cave is very narrow, only one person can enter it. So Jiang Binyu was the first to drill in, then Murong Feng and Xiao Xiang'er, and then the rest of the people drilled into the cave in turn.

Because there was a scout to explore the road first, he didn't encounter any danger along the way, but some places were very narrow, and he almost stuck the tall Jiang Binyu in the middle of the road several times, but fortunately, Murong Feng followed behind him, and when he saw the narrow place, he directly used his sword qi to break through so that Jiang Binyu could calmly drill through. Even so, it took a lot of effort for the group to get into the underground ruins!

The exit of the tunnel was located on the wall on the side of the ruins, more than ten meters high from the ground, and Jiang Binyu was the first to slide down the rope. Then the crowd slid down one by one.

I knew that this underground ruin was very large from the picture fed back by the scout before, but when I was immersed in the scene, I could feel the enormity of this space! It's like an indoor basketball court!

The problem is that this huge underground ruins are empty. Nothing!!

"Where's the treasure? Why is this empty and nothing? Jiang Binyu ran around and shouted in disappointment. The women were also talking about it, speculating whether this treasure had been taken by others!

"Shut up! Be quiet! Murong Feng suddenly let out a cold snort, which frightened everyone!

Murong Feng's six senses were much sharper than them, and as soon as he entered here, he felt a trace of a cold aura. Following the source of the breath, she slowly walked to a wall.

As helmets and searchlights illuminate the walls, revealing a huge relief fresco!

It was a scene of two giants fighting, one holding a giant sword high in the air to summon the power of thunder, while the other had an octopus head and a billowing cloud spewing from his mouth. The mountains are like mounds around them, the sea is like a pool at their feet, and the white clouds can only float around their waists. With just a few knives, this grand battle scene is outlined extremely vividly!

"Shhh!! Could this be the legendary Titan? This head is a little too big, right? Jiang Binyu couldn't help but exclaim.

"This giant with an octopus head is so big! Do any of you know him? The lazy cat also exclaimed.

Mu Xue said speechlessly: "The macro background of the Legend of the Star Sword covers almost every mythological system of human civilization, and we are not professional scholars, how can we recognize the origin of this strange man at a glance!" ”

Murong Feng suddenly said loudly: "I know this!" This giant with a long octopus head is a servant of the evil Elder God, 'Thorgus the Slicker'! And the giant holding the giant sword was not a Titan, but the creation 'Golem' left over from the Titan's successful sealing of several elemental lords to win the battle of order, that is, the ancestral god of the mountain giants. ”

Everyone was amazed, and Su Yao asked in surprise, "Xiao Feng'er, how do you know this?" ”

Murong Feng was speechless, raised his hand and pointed to the line of elven inscriptions below the relief mural, and said, "Those inscriptions are all written!" Don't you see? ”

The faces of the crowd were suddenly covered with black lines

"Where? Where? Let me see! Xiao Xiang'er stepped forward curiously to take a look, but after looking at it for a long time, she wrinkled her nose and muttered, "What kind of text is this?" People can't understand it at all! Sister Feng, how do you understand it? ”

Murong Feng was stunned by the question, took a closer look, and suddenly smiled dumbly: "Hehe." It's that I forgot. These inscriptions are in elven script. No wonder you all can't read it. ”

The crowd was again speechless. Su Yao asked out loud: "Xiao Feng'er, you didn't just want us to see this mural before you brought this relief to us, right?" ”

"I sense a bit of a weirdness here, so there must be some secret hidden in this relief." Murong Feng looked up at the huge relief mural and frowned in thought.

When Murong Feng said this, it naturally aroused everyone's curiosity, and they all came forward to take a closer look at this relief. It's a pity that except for Su Yao, who has a bit of an artistic cell, the others can't see the reason at all, they just feel that this relief is really well carved, and after staring at it for a long time, it seems that their minds are about to be sucked into the mural and immersive.

"Huh! You say there's a secret door behind this mural or something? Why don't we smash it open and take a look? Jiang Binyu suddenly proposed.

The women all stared at him speechlessly, and only he could say such a big thing about the scenery.

Murong Feng stepped forward and pressed his hand against the wall to infiltrate spiritual power. After a moment, he shrugged his shoulders and said: "There is no secret door behind this, and even if there is an estimate, there is a rock wall more than ten meters thick. ”

"You're really going to smash it open and take a look!" Mu Xue said wildly.

"Do you have any good suggestions?" Murong Feng asked rhetorically, "This place is obviously a dead hole, I deliberately observed it just now and found no traces of theft and excavation, which means that we are the first explorers to patronize here." I don't think the people who built this underground ruin just dug a big hole here and put nothing behind. ”

"In that case, let's split up and find out what mechanism there is. Don't touch the traps when you find them, and beware of triggering traps! Su Yao clapped his hands and greeted. Everyone immediately scattered and searched around, but this crypt was empty at a glance, and they didn't need to rummage to see it clearly, and the scattered people only found the murals carved in relief on the wall, and found nothing other valuable.

Murong Feng had no choice but to interpret these murals one by one.

"These paintings depict the battle of the ancient order! It tells the story of the Titans from outer space who descended on this planet. Then a fierce battle broke out with several elemental lords on this planet, and finally the wind god Olakir was driven back to the wind elemental plane. The Vulcan Ragnaros was sealed deep in the Earth's core, and the Water God Nepturon and the Mother Earth Thrathane chose to submit, thus establishing a new order on the chaotic planet. And began to spread the seeds of civilization. ”

Murong Feng looked up at the reliefs one by one, interpreting the elven inscriptions under the reliefs, telling the magnificent legends of ancient times, which fascinated everyone.

"Later, for unknown reasons, the Titans suddenly left this planet and never returned. But the seeds of civilization have been sown, and the first intelligent race that has gone through hundreds of millions of years of ignorance has finally been born. ”

"Is it an elf? Is it an elf? Xiao Xiang'er couldn't help but interject and asked.

"Dwarves, I guess!" Mu Xue guessed.

Jiang Binyu continued: "You all guessed wrong! It's supposed to be a dragon. ”

"All three of you guessed wrong." Murong Feng said helplessly: "The dwarf race is also the descendant of the creation earth spirit of the Titan clan, strictly speaking, it is considered a descendant of aliens, not an aborigine. The Dragons, on the other hand, are the guardians created by the Titans, specially used to protect the seals of those ancient evil gods. And the first native-born intelligent race that I am afraid you would never have dreamed of, that is...... Trolls! ”

Everyone was stunned!

"Moon Shadow, you're not kidding, are you? Those green-faced fanged guys are the natives of this planet's self-evolution? Where did the elves come from? Lazy Cat exclaimed.

Murong Feng walked to the next mural, raised his hand and pointed and said, "Isn't it painted on this!" I didn't expect the elves to evolve from the trolls! ”

Everyone felt the thunder rolling again! A green-faced and ferocious fang, an elegant, noble, kind and beautiful, actually a civilized race branching out from the same ancestor?

"How is this possible!?" Jiang Binyu was the first to exclaim: "This is completely a two-race civilization, okay?" How can it be the same civilization! ”

Murong Feng sighed and said, "It's written on the mural!" The ancient trolls were born into civilization and established the ancient troll empire that flourished, but one of the troll tribes discovered the sunwell left by the Titans, and then drew endless magic from the sunwell to evolve into the elves and master arcane magic. That is, the current High Elf - Queldore! ”

"And then the elves and the trolls, two races of the same origin, began a centuries-long division and war! Eventually, the Troll Empire declined and perished. The rise of the elves took their place and drew a halt. However, the war between the two has never subsided. In addition, there is a footnote next to this that the goblin clan of those green-skinned dwarfs also evolved from the troll clan. Well, it says 'degradation'. So, strictly speaking, those goblins are also distant relatives of elves. ”

Everyone was once again overwhelmed by this strange game setting! It's hard to believe that trolls and goblins are both distant relatives of elegant elves!

"Where did the orcs come from?" Angel couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know!" Murong Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is no writing on the mural at all, it is estimated that the orc civilization appeared relatively late, maybe there was no orc civilization in the era when this underground ruin was built." ”

"Do these murals have anything else to write besides these ancient legends?" Su Yao asked curiously, "Is there any connection between these murals and this underground ruin?" ”

"It's still Aunt Su who got the point. We should know if we look at it. Fortunately, I can understand these elven characters after I turn to the elven clan, otherwise it is estimated that we would all be blind with Mu Xue's archaeological skills. Murong Feng smiled, causing Mu Xue to snort dissatisfiedly.

Murong Feng skipped the mural of 'Stone Giant vs. Soggs' that he had already seen before, and then read the remaining murals in one go, and his face suddenly became more solemn than ever. The crowd came forward to take a look. The few remaining murals are depicted with flying dragons and a huge dragon!

"Moon Shadow, what kind of legend are these dragon reliefs talking about?" Seeing that Murong Feng hadn't squeaked for a long time, Su Yao couldn't help but ask.

Murong Feng said in a deep voice: "This dragon's name is Gala Karon, and it is the Ancient Ancestor Dragon!" The Five Guardian Dragons are the eternal lifeforms created by the Titans based on Galak. It is larger than all the guardian dragons combined. ”

"Shhh Everyone gasped, although a few people had never seen a dragon, they had also seen a flying dragon. An adult wyvern is more than 30 meters long and has a wingspan of more than 50 meters. It is said that the dragon is ten times the size of a flying dragon, which is more than 300 meters long! It's almost as big as a transport! And the ancient ancestor dragon on the relief is actually bigger than all the guardian dragons combined, this is completely the size of an interstellar battleship! And such a large creature can only be compared to the legendary star beast! Could it be that this Ancient Ancestor Dragon is a star beast?

"What else does Moon Shadow say about this relief?" Su Yao asked.

Murong Feng looked around, frowned, and said, "According to the relief." Cursed by the Elder Evil Gods, Galakaron fell into madness and began to devour the dragons. Although the dragon clan finally killed Galakaron with great difficulty under the leadership of the five guardian dragons, the dragon clan was also too strong to continue to suppress the seal. And in order to continue to protect the planet. The five guardian dragons had to rely on the power of foreign races, and finally summoned thirteen demigod powerhouses of various races. Then, under the leadership of the guardian dragons, these powerful demigods joined forces to create an artifact - the Time Hourglass! ”

"Time hourglass?"

"Artifact?"

"What for?"

Everyone asked curiously.

"An artifact that can extend the flow of time." Murong Feng replied, "Possessed by the Bronze Dragon King Eternal Nozdom and placed on the Titan's seal. The seal that was about to be shattered was directly frozen at a point in time. ”

"Wow! What a powerful artifact! That way, you don't have to worry about the ancient evil god being able to break the seal, right? Mu Xue said in surprise.

Murong Feng shook his head and said: "The inertia of time is not so easy to control, the time hourglass is said to freeze time, but in fact, it only extends the flow rate of time, and the things that happen in an instant can only be ended by a thousand years or even ten thousand years!" In other words, the seal that should have been broken immediately, the ancient evil god had to endure for another 10,000 years to break it. ”

"Tsk! Those guardian dragons are so smart! It is estimated that the ancient evil god must be depressed to death! The crowd exclaimed.

"The Guardian Dragons did this as a last resort, presumably in the hope that the Titans would be able to return before the hourglass of time expired. It can only be regarded as a delaying tactic! Murong Feng sighed, "It's a pity that the Titan clan is gone, and the time hourglass can last is running out." (To be continued......)
