Chapter 166: Those Troops
As the last rays of sunlight dissipated in the air, the entire dilapidated city fell into a dead silence, and the glory of entering seemed to be a dream of Nanke.
Although it is in a different dimension, it is not exactly, the light is still according to the normal world, and the flowing water of the waterfall enters.
Everything was quiet, at least on the path they had traveled.
"Captain Gordon, I don't think it's a good idea to wander around right now. ”
In this bleak world, silently, with the brightness of the moonlight, the shadows cast by the ruins of the city are like monsters that choose to devour people.
"Well, adjutant, this is El Dorado, someone has been looking for something for hundreds of years, you see over there, the rough muzzle, tsk, that's absolutely devastating. ”
As far as they could see, the tall, cylindrical object stood out, but for Gore.
"I think this thing is more like a chimney, the kind in a blacksmith's shop, maybe a little bigger. ”
The more they walked, the more eerie the city looked.
Because it didn't look like a regular city at all, there weren't any regular buildings, well, maybe it once existed, but what about the thick cannon barrels on those towers? For reasons of imagination, Gore didn't believe those things were cannon barrels at all, but Gordon could tell exactly that it wasn't a city at all, but a huge war fortress, made of gold.
Because there was no fire, the two did not dare to burrow into the dark ruins, but just wandered the streets.
They crossed a crumbling ruin, and came to a somewhat empty place, which seemed to be a square, where many "people" stood, or fell, and in the middle, above those towering staircases, there was the most complete building they had ever seen, a huge temple.
Two huge and solemn statues of gods stood there, with heavy swords and pestles on the ground, feeling like two knights?
The place was clearly wrong, and the people who fell to the ground seemed to be the army mentioned in the curse, but they were probably dormant.
Normally, they should have bypassed here, or retreated quietly, but Gore didn't think so.
He drew the musket from his waist, then half-crouched down and aimed at a corpse lying on the ground.
"Hey, you're crazy, you don't have to die, do you?"
Gordon rushed up and pressed the muzzle of his musket, put one hand on his shoulder, and asked in an effort to keep his voice low.
Gore's expression was a little helpless: "Captain Gordon, of course I'm not dying. ”
"So what do you want to do? These things are obviously not easy to provoke. ”
"You forgot about our mission, we have to find out the situation, the danger here, I think maybe that's the most direct way. ”
"Hehe, calm down, have you ever wondered how we survived?"
"The waterfall has been flowing here for hundreds of years, but El Dorado is still not submerged, as long as we follow the flow ......"
Gore gave him an affirmative look and pulled the trigger.
Click!
The gunpowder had long been soaked with water, and in Gordon's nervous eyes, there was no fire, let alone projectiles.
"Sorry, the gunpowder is wet. ”
Gore smiled awkwardly, then pulled the trigger twice again, confirming that the musket was really out of action.
"Thankfully, I think we should think about it in the long run, for example, to find our way out first. ”
Gordon let out a long breath before suggesting.
Gore thought about it for a moment, then nodded, "That's a good idea!"
After thinking this out, the two of them prepared to go back to the waterhole, but they had clearly forgotten that in this cursed place, Gore still had angels on his body, and bad luck was always with them.
Just as he was about to leave, Gore slipped and a piece of broken gold rolled straight down, causing a terrible chain reaction.
At first, the two of them didn't pay attention to this matter, and stood on top of the ruins and looked back at the temple.
Just a small piece of gold began to hit another larger piece, and then rolled down.
"What a magnificent building!"
Gordon couldn't help but sigh that this kind of miraculous architecture can really arouse the most divine praise of architectural aesthetics in human beings.
The debris continued to roll and began to move towards the edge of the cliff of the ruins, noclipping into the loose crevices.
"Captain Gordon, one thing comes to mind. ”
"What?"
"How can we get our troops into El Dorado? We can't all of us climb up the cliff of the waterfall. ”
“......”
"Do you have any ideas?"
"That's a problem...... Well, I guess I should have some premature ideas though. ”
"Oh?"
Before he could continue to ask, a huge ruin loosened, and the ruin, which was already crumbling, completely collapsed under the impetus of the two of them.
Rumble!!!
The violent impact was mixed with the crisp sound of metal, and the vibration transmitted through every corner, even causing Gordon to slip under his feet and fall towards the location of the temple.
A golden light appeared in the night sky, and it was a pair of eyes that opened, and the entire temple guard seemed to be activated.
More and more eyes opened, and the ground began to glow red.
Airplanes......
Like the sound of a machine starting, with the temple as the center, countless red lights spread into the distance along the mystical patterns on the ground, and more and more lying humanoids opened their eyes, and those red lights were full of energy, and began to grant those creatures the ability to move.
A dark red light rose from the temple, and an eye appeared in the sky, made of those golden lines, and a golden light streaked through it, scanning the entire ground.
At this time, Gordon was being dragged by Gore's right leg and hung upside down in the air.
"Damn it. ”
Gordon covered his mouth, because his mouth was already full of blood, and his whole face was hit against the gold, just because of Gore's pull.
He fell forward, relying on his own balance and body coordination, and only needed to push on the ground and recorrect his posture to land accurately.
After all, this direction is not high.
But the kind-hearted Gore reacted the moment he saw Gordon fall, he pounced, but could only grab Gordon's foot and neck, in order to prevent Gordon from falling into the terrible abyss, he resolutely used all his strength to pull Gordon's leg.
The accident happened, and Gordon lost all chance to adjust his body, and the only thing he could do was cover his face with his hands and slam into the rubble.
