Chapter 17 Skeletons

The ruins of the ancient battlefield do not have any exclusive names, just a very simple ruins summarize its existence, the specific time of its existence is not very clear, roughly estimated to be more than 5,000 years, there are many legends about the ruins in the world, but there are few records in the real historical materials, only the temple of the "Chronicle of the Goddess" slightly mentioned a few words.

There have been many adventurers who have deliberately gone to this ruin to explore, wanting to find something from it, what to get, and indeed some lucky people have accidentally found some ancient blade weapons, or strange magic patterns, so that they are famous all over the world, but with the passage of time, such lucky ones are becoming fewer and fewer, with the outbreak of a major war between empires, Lan Ze was also forced to get involved, and the ruins themselves were rarely paid attention to.

And tonight, a few curious young men and women have once again stepped into the ruins and become its new guests.

It's just that the weirdness of this ruin surprised several people at the beginning, and before entering the ruins, they were surprised by the village outside the ruins, and Lore's adventure team had no choice but to hide in the ruins in a hurry.

Lore and the others ran towards the valley in a panic, but it was not an unchosen path, after all, although the entrance to the valley was wide, it was only a road, and when a few people stepped on a relatively narrow section, the strange villagers who were chasing behind them finally stopped, and spun around like headless flies, refusing to walk this road.

And after this journey, several people did not see the ruins of the legendary ancient battlefield, but a cloud of fog that obscured their vision.

Seeing this, the Lore and the others also stopped, no matter how you look at this scene, it will be a little strange, anyone can see that this strange village is related to some of the existence in the ruins, as soon as they stopped, the Lore and the others couldn't help but hesitate.

The fog was strange, and it was clearly demarcated from the outside of the passage, and the whole outline seemed to be a natural portal.

Kylo walked to the fog, let go of his mental power, and easily sensed that there was a very empty scene behind the fog gate, and there didn't seem to be any weird existence. Kylo hesitated, stretched out a finger, put it into the fog door, closed his eyes and felt it, then turned back to Lore and said, "There is no corrosiveness, and I don't feel magic fluctuations." ”

"So, there's no danger inside?"

"Then I can't tell!"

Lore looked around, stopped at the thick fog not far away, and said with some eagerness: "What about the danger?

Leah raised her hand in disagreement: "Absolutely not!"

Lore glanced at the frightened Leah, and directly ignored her opinion: "The village outside has changed inexplicably, and it has not been discovered by outsiders, this is too strange, I think we need to go in and find out." ”

Although Lore has a stronger sense of adventure, she is indeed a kind-hearted girl, or she would not have specifically spoken out to ask everyone not to hurt the villagers in the village.

Kylo pinched his eyebrows, from the beginning just now, he was a little inexplicably upset, the group of villagers just now, he was almost a little impatient, and then he was a little irritable when he looked at the dense fog in front of him.

Kylo tried his best to suppress the restlessness in his heart, but his breathing inevitably became a little heavy: "Then let's go in and see, it's better if there are any monsters that have been solved earlier!"

Aitch and Nolans looked at each other, and had no choice but to say that they had no opinion.

Although the villagers in the village were a little strange, they were not too threatening in fact, so although Lore was suspicious, he did not take the possible danger in the ruins to heart, and after making a decision, several people walked towards the thick fog.

To be on the safe side, Nolans connected several people with a halo link, and couldn't see how thick the fog was, so as not to accidentally get separated.

The dense fog is not too thick, only a few meters away, carefully walk forward, it doesn't take a few steps, not long, a few people walked through the fog gate passage, but when walking, I always feel that I have stepped on some branches or the like, and I keep making some creaking sounds.

As soon as he came out of the fog gate, the vision in front of him suddenly opened up, and a desolate breath came to his face.

Lore and the others looked at the ruins of this ancient battlefield blankly, the dark environment restricted the vision of several people, but even as far as the eye could see, the scope of the ruins was far beyond the expectations of several people, they never thought that this ruins could be so big, the description in the book is just a number, feel it personally, but it is another matter.

The ground is full of yellow sand and stones, some obvious ancient buildings even if they collapse and buried, but there is still a sense of magnificence, too far away by the dark night to see clearly, a few large stone pillars near there are distinct magic and sword attack marks, after thousands of years, still profound.

"It's such a big place, it's really hard to move at night. Lore said as he magically ignited a large fireball floating in the air, surveying his surroundings.

Nolans had already prepared to inject light magic into four power stones, one for each of them, except for Lore, to be used as a simple illumination.

Kylo walked to the edge of a huge stone pillar that had fallen to the ground, and with the help of the light of the power stone, he carefully examined the lines on the stone pillar, the stone pillar was very large, even if it fell, and some of it was buried in the ground, the exposed part was only a little shorter than Kylo.

"Huh, this pattern looks so familiar?" Leah rarely didn't follow Lore, but the dark environment made Leah unconsciously want to find someone to chat with. But I don't know why she didn't choose her siblings, but came to Kylo's side and looked at the stone pillar with Kylo.

Leah's body is too petite, and she has to tiptoe to see clearly, which looks a little cute.

"Do you recognize these patterns?" said Kylo, looking sideways.

Leah thought about it carefully, then shook her head: "I can't remember it for a while. ”

"Why didn't you follow Lore?"

Leah wrinkled her nose and said angrily, "Hmph! Lore is so bad! I won't play with her again." ”

The petite girl said childish words, the little white fox in her arms shook her ears slightly, and Kylo couldn't help but chuckle when she looked at this picture, and the irritability in her heart was diluted a little.

Leah was a little dissatisfied with Kylo's laughter, and tilted her head to look at Kylo: "What are you laughing at?"

Kylo shook his head and said, "It's nothing, Lore's personality is indeed a bit lively. How did you and her become friends?"

Leah thought for a while and said: "I have known her since I was a child, my family is strict, I don't have any friends of the same age, there is only one twin brother, that is, Edge, once, Lore followed his father to my house as a guest, we met, and then she knew that I had no playmates and often came to play with me, and slowly became good friends." ”

Kylo was a little puzzled and asked, "Lore is surnamed Lance, I don't know what your surname is?

Leah was silent, but refused to tell the truth, only said, "I'm sorry, I can't say." ”

Kylo raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, but he didn't pursue it: "It's okay, everyone has some secrets, don't say it if you don't want to." ”

It seems that Leah's identity is also a bit mysterious, but doesn't Kylo himself have some ulterior secrets? It's not Kylo's habit to be too inquisitive, if he can, he just wants to live freely, alone, maybe plus a little girl. Kylo unconsciously remembered the always expressionless guy who had been by his side all along, and he didn't know where she was now and what she was doing.

Leah said "thank you" apologetically, and then there was some silence between the two, except for the sound of Edge's and Nolans' conversation not far away.

Kylo continued to focus on the lines on the stone pillar, the rough touch came through his fingers, the lines on which Kailo had also seen, but the stone pillar in front of him was too big, and the lines on it had obviously suffered many powerful attacks, becoming intermittent and unclear, and he couldn't figure out why these lines appeared here.

"I remember!"

Leah's voice suddenly rang out, a little abrupt in the empty night.

Kylo turned his head to see Leah tilting her head to look at the pillar with difficulty, and asked a little strangely, "What's wrong?"

Leah pointed to the lines on the stone pillar, and her tone was a little hesitant: "The patterns on this are exactly the same as those in the temple!"

When Kylo heard this, he also followed Leah's example, and tilted his head over, and the appearance of the two of them tilting their heads together seemed a little funny, but Kylo could see the lines on the stone pillar more clearly.

Kylo straightened up and said with some confusion, "It's a little similar, but the texture on the temple pillars isn't that complicated, is it?"

Leah shook her head and said, "It's not the outer hall, the temple has an inner hall, and the patterns on those stone pillars are exactly the same as here." ”

The temple has branches in various countries, and what Leah is talking about must be the main hall in Arazawa. The temple is divided into two places, the outer hall has no restrictions, but the inner hall has strict guards, ordinary princes and nobles have no chance to enter at all, and ordinary people will not know that there is such a difference as the inner hall and the outer hall, but Leah said that she had seen it, and Kylo couldn't help but be a little curious about Leah's identity.

"Inner Sanctum?" Kylo raised an eyebrow.

Leah was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.

"Can't you say that again?"

Leah shook her head, "I'm sorry. ”

Kylo smiled, and was about to say something more, when Nolans' voice came from not far away:

"Come and see. ”

Kylo and Leah glanced at each other, it seemed that Nolans had found something, and the two of them stopped paying attention to anything like the pillar pattern and walked to Nolans together.

Lore and Kylo arrived at about the same time, and when they saw Kylo and Leah coming together, they were a little stunned, but they didn't say anything, and turned to look at what Nolans and Aitch had found.

"A skeleton?" Lore was a little curious, "is this your new discovery?"

Aitch shook his head, leaned the power stone closer, and said, "Look closely, this skeleton has a special mark on its forehead. ”

Lore heard this, and looked carefully: this is a circular badge brand, a symbol representing light is clearly visible, but there is a long crack on the skeleton's forehead, which divides the badge in two, and I don't know if it is caused by the attack suffered before his death, or if it is caused by the erosion of time after turning into a skeleton, but no matter what, such a mark, then the identity of the skeleton is only one possibility.

"Templar!"
