Chapter 430: Into the Ruins
If you just want to excavate the ruins, it can take a long time. But over the years, although this door has not received much financial support, the periphery has already been excavated. The most important thing now was to explore the interior, so everyone set off as soon as they were ready, and entered a cave in the mountains not far away. In addition to the archaeologists and Rhodes, who were "playing soy sauce", there was also a ten-person excavation team, plus more than 20 well-trained soldiers, and there were not many people.
The cave looks large enough to accommodate five or six people walking side by side, but because it is located deep in the mountains, the climate here is very cold, and you can still see stalactites falling from the top of the cave when you look up. Although it is pitch black, the excavation work has made it possible to place bright lights along the way, and it looks like a beautiful view. And Thomas, who was at the forefront, was also excited, and as he walked, he opened his mouth to tell everyone about the ruins.
“……… This ruins were undoubtedly discovered in the first place, and at the beginning, we only knew of five ruins, and I think you have already seen it from the sources, and four of them are related. Only the fifth ruin is difficult to find, and although we have excavated the fifth ruin in the other four, the exact location is very vague. Fortunately, it was an earthquake that allowed our satellites to scan the large complex below and find traces related to the other four ruins, otherwise, I am afraid that we would not have been able to find the location of the fifth ruin. ”
Hearing this, a man who followed behind also frowned at this time and spoke.
"Professor Thomas, if we're not mistaken. According to the measurements, the time when these ruins were established ........."
"If I'm not mistaken, these ruins were built more than 65 million years ago, and we've tested them for sure. Not only that, but we also found fossils and plants from the Cretaceous period in these buildings, all of which can prove the time when these buildings were built. ”
Hearing this, Rhodes raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything. It looks like those guys are really far enough to cross over, if they succeed. I'm afraid there won't be any such thing as humans evolving from monkeys in the future. However, hearing Thomas's words, Rod was also puzzled, although he did not study history, but he also knew that it was almost the time when the dinosaurs were extinct. Could it be that these people's luck is really so bad, they just crossed over and built a base before they could be wiped out by a meteorite at once? It doesn't make sense............ Not to mention that the meteorite did not destroy the entire earth in an instant. More dinosaurs died in later climate change. And as the elite of the Dragon Soul Continent, as long as there is the power of Irene and Lydia. Even if the earth can't stay. It's not that difficult to run to the moon to build a palace and wait. Not to mention that since they were able to bury the Akaxia Slate in the Moon, they knew that they were not incapable of it. Not to mention that there is also a demon god among them, if what his sister said is right, the existing demon god is so powerful, as long as one denies the past and directly transforms the meteorite completely, how can it be completely destroyed?
"So that is. It is very likely that the original civilization on this planet was built here? ”
Hearing this, the woman behind her couldn't suppress her excitement and spoke, while Rod shrugged her shoulders. Hawkers, think about it carefully, if that's the case, then those who came to the Dragon Soul Continent on Earth are indeed the original civilization......... Although not native.
"It's quite possible, but to our surprise, all five ruins are built in a very different style from any existing human civilization, they don't seem to rely on any mechanical equipment at all, and the architectural style is a bit .........strange," Thomas said as he paused. At this moment, under his leadership, everyone had been advancing in the cave for two hours, and as everyone went deeper, the passage became wider and wider. At this moment, everyone had been led by Thomas to the bottom of the cave, but for some reason, it was only pitch black. Even if you take a flashlight and shine it forward, you can't see anything. This made everyone look at Thomas curiously, and Thomas obviously enjoyed this moment, facing everyone's eyes, he looked ahead, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and a little smile appeared, before he spoke. “………… As for how strange it is, you just need to look at it. ”
Then, Thomas stretched out his hand and gently pressed it a few times on the panel on the edge of the staircase next to him, and soon, with a few "pops", the originally dark space was suddenly illuminated by the light. And under this bright light, the huge building in front of you is finally fully revealed. Seeing this scene, not only those ordinary people, but even Irene and Lydia widened their eyes in surprise, looking at the huge building not far away.
I saw that what was displayed in front of everyone was a tall building that was dozens of meters high, and it was rectangular and unfolded, like a temple, located in a deep mountain valley. As far as the eye could see, there was a dark and bottomless abyss all around the building, and when they looked up, they couldn't even see the dome above. If it weren't for the fact that they were in the mountains at the moment, I am afraid that everyone would still think that they had arrived in another world.
Under the leadership of Thomas, everyone soon came to the gate of this temple, under the illumination of the light, you can clearly see that this temple is as white as jade, and I don't know what material is used to build it, it is carved with mysterious and beautiful patterns, and in the center of the gate, a mysterious and complex pattern emerges. Rhodes carefully looked at the holy tome in front of him, and at the same time, a little strange color flashed in his eyes, he was almost certain that this holy temple was absolutely inseparable from the Void Dragon, because from the appearance alone, this holy book was simply a replica of the main hall of Grandia, except that it was not so large, the rest of the place was almost identical.
It seems that these five ruins should have been built by the subordinates of the Five Dragons of Creation, and the one in front of them is the building of the Void Dragon faction. Now it looks. They should have had everything going well, otherwise they wouldn't have been idle and bored to get the base in order. But why exactly...............
Thinking of this, Rhodes felt his heart skip a beat, a faint sense of uneasiness emerged from the depths of his heart, and he could even feel that his heartbeat was gradually accelerating, as if he was about to touch some truth. But when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't think of anything, just like seeing a question in the college entrance examination room, knowing the answer to it, but not remembering the specific content. This made Rod a little annoyed. Eventually, though, he shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
"How are we going to get there now?"
Looking at the abyss in front of him, which was thirty or forty meters wide, another man pushed his glasses and said with some doubts, and then he looked at Thomas next to him. But Thomas's face was very helpless at the moment. Then he sighed.
"That's what I'm thinking about, too."
"Can't we ride an anti-gravity hovercar?"
Hearing Thomas's inquiry, the female scholar also asked with a strange face. After all, it's not what it used to be. With the development of science and technology, the work of human excavation of archaeology has become easier and easier, and at first it will be a little more dangerous than in the movie, but now, there are few such dangers. But even if it's a few decades ago, as long as it's ready. There is no danger either.
But this time, in the face of his companion's inquiry, Thomas did not speak, on the contrary. He stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on the panel, and soon, he saw an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft flying up silently, and then flew straight towards the holy book in front of him, and the others couldn't help but look at the flying machine, and just when the aircraft was about to arrive in front of the holy text, I saw a burst of colorful and bright light suddenly appeared, and then the aircraft suddenly exploded with a "boom", and then completely disappeared as if it had been decomposed by something, leaving not even a fragment behind.
"Shhh
Seeing this scene, everyone else couldn't help but gasp, but in Rod's ears, at this moment, there was also a cry of surprise from his sister.
"This is the Imprisonment Enchantment!!"
"Imprisoning the Barrier?"
Hearing his sister's words, Rod's heart sank, the imprisoned enchantment and the guardian enchantment are completely different things, and it is not the first time that Rhodes has encountered the enchantment in the Dragon Soul Continent, especially those ancient ruins, unless they are destroyed, there are more or less enchantments, and some are very weird. When Rhodes opened the way of order in the center of the Chaos Lands, the battle with the projection was a kind of guardian enchantment.
But "guarding" and "imprisoning" are completely different. Guardianship is used to protect something from harm, while imprisonment is to prevent it from being harmed by something. If this is a guardian enchantment, then at most it is only the guardian mechanism of the temple itself, but if it is imprisoned...............
Could it be that someone in the Five Dragons of Creation had any idea in the first place?
Thinking of this, Rod's face sank, and he hurriedly asked.
"This kind of imprisoning enchantment can anyone in your faction let go?"
And this time, in the face of Rod's inquiry, my sister was silent for a moment before she gritted her teeth and replied.
“………………… Only Maribel will be able to unleash this enchantment, which is a special enchantment that only the demon god I created can use. ”
“……………… Huh? ”
Hearing his sister's answer, Rhodes was even more confused, he originally thought that a representative of the other Four Dragons of Creation had secretly received some order, so he took the opportunity to attack Maribel, and then imprisoned this temple. As a result, now listening to my sister's answer, this imprisonment was actually released by Marybell? So what the hell is this? Could it be that there is something imprisoned in it? It can't be that Maribel made a mistake and locked herself inside. And just as Rod was pondering, Thomas's voice sounded again.
"It's a kind of spatial barrier, it's hard to open, and we've spent a lot of time trying to find a way to lift it. But it has not been found. But luckily, we have a way to do it this time............" Saying this, Thomas couldn't help but smile, this spatial barrier has never been encountered anywhere else, and it is strange that there is no source at all. No matter how much you dig and explore, you don't know where it comes from. Of course, he also reported this to the higher-ups, hoping to get more financial and equipment support. It's just that at that time, there was no interest in the study of ruins, and these spatial barriers were difficult to break, and they couldn't be blown up no matter how they exploded. Although the above wanted to study, but because I was afraid that the movement would be too big and someone would find out, I finally gave up. But now, with the full support of Thomas, he has finally found a way.
Saying this, Thomas waved his hand, and soon saw the soldiers come forward, and then solemnly put down the four large sealed iron boxes, and the iron boxes were opened, and then everyone saw four stone statues carved with dragons emerging from them. Seeing these four-headed dragons, Rod's expression was a little complicated............ Well, it's not the first time he's seen this thing.
"This is what we excavated from the other four ruins, and according to my analysis, these four stone statues contain a strange power. Coinciding with the fluctuations of this barrier, we have done experiments before. Just activate the power on these four stone statues. You can break down the barrier in front of you. ”
Saying this, Thomas made a gesture, and soon, an officer next to him immediately pressed the button, and then only heard the sound of the machine, and he didn't know what means they used. Those stone dragons who originally looked like simple stone statues suddenly began to shine with a strange white light, and then their eyes suddenly lit up, and then eight dazzling pillars of light shot out from the stone dragon's eyes like this, hitting the holy text in front of them heavily. Soon. The beautiful and colorful barrier resurfaced. Seeing this scene, the others widened their eyes in surprise, and because of this, they didn't notice that at this moment, Rhodes was shining in his eyes. Then a faint glow of the summoning circle suddenly appeared in his right hand, forming a strange circular circle, which quietly rotated in Rhodes' hand, and then quickly disappeared.
This scene was only a minute or two, but because Rhodes was standing far behind everyone, no one noticed it. And with Rod's movements, I saw that the barrier suddenly disappeared, and then a loud sound like thunder sounded, and then, huge stone slabs flew up from the abyss, forming a great avenue in front of everyone.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Thomas was even more excited, he didn't even have time to greet those soldiers, so he walked directly up the stone stairs in front of him. As for the others, they also hurriedly followed at this moment, and those soldiers also hurriedly picked up their weapons and went up, only Rhodes and his party were far behind.
"Your Majesty Rhodes, is there any problem?"
Seeing such a glorious holy text, Lydia and Irene naturally wanted to go in and have a look, but before that, Rod had already given them a hint, so they stayed at the end. Seeing Rhodes at this moment, the two of them were also a little puzzled. Looking at their expressions, Rod nodded.
"That's right, there may be a problem here, I think the two of you can see it, this is a confinement enchantment, maybe there is something in it. Be careful, especially the guys in front of you, don't let them touch something they shouldn't touch, otherwise it will be troublesome. ”
Saying this, Rod glanced at the canary and the little bubblegum.
"Of course, if there is any situation, you can do it directly, just in case."
Of course, Thomas didn't know that he and the others had already been counted as completely on the thief ship. When Rhodes and the others walked into the holy scriptures, they were excitedly observing everything around them. I saw that the walls of this holy text were carved everywhere with all kinds of frescoes and strange texts, which most people did not understand, even Irene and Lydia only knew a little about it. However, Rhodes had his sister by his side, and as the original Void Dragon, she certainly knew these words. So as she walked forward, her sister began to explain the above content to Rod.
Sure enough, what is recorded on the walls of this temple is the history of the exploration of Marybel and her family sent by the Void Dragon to Earth. According to the above records, although the representatives of the five dragons of creation had crossed over, they were scattered and were not teleported together. And they were not in a hurry to converge, but began to set up camps in their respective locations (it seems that the representatives of the five dragons of creation also knew that they wanted to demarcate the land as a boundary, and they thought about dividing the territory before they started to teleport), the earth at that time was naturally dangerous and abnormal for ordinary people, but in the eyes of these representatives of the Dragon Soul Continent, they were just ordinary "monsters", after all, compared to the monsters on the Dragon Soul Continent, the dinosaurs on the earth at that time did not have the ability to monsters even if they were huge, For the subordinates of the Creation Five Dragons, there is naturally no threat at all.
Maribel also successfully built the Holy Book in this process, and then it was time for them to meet, open the Gate of Acacia, and then completely activate the portal of the teleportation plane............ But...............
"How is that possible!?"
Seeing the words on the wall in front of her, my sister couldn't help but scream, while Rhodes stared at the words and the twisted monsters in confusion. It wasn't until a moment later that my sister explained.
“………… Brother, if this record is correct......... Then we may be in trouble............" (To be continued......
