Chapter 425: The Temple of Poseidon, the god of the sea
"What a beautiful place!" The sailors sighed with emotion, their eyes filled with emotion and shock, and they opened their eyes one by one, looking at the huge city in front of them with extremely greedy eyes!
At your feet is a large and neat stone path, and the stone path is not known how many meters long, and it stretches into the distance. About a few tens of meters in front of them, stood two huge stone statues!
It was a mighty god wielding a trident and riding a majestic war horse under his crotch, Poseidon the god of the sea!
Beyond the statue of Poseidon, the first thing that catches everyone's eyes is not the city divided by five huge concentric circles, but the tall copper pillar in the center of the city.
The bronze pillar is so tall that even from a distance, you can clearly see the tall brass pillar that stands in the center of the city.
It is said that on this brass pillar is engraved the sacred law of Poseidon, the god of the sea, for the inhabitants. So much so that looking at this bronze pillar from a distance gives people a feeling of towering into the clouds.
The majestic city is divided by five huge concentric circles, and the buildings in the city are built in red, yellow and black. There are canals that run through the city, and these old canals are still functioning normally. Inside, the sparkling, crystal-clear water of the river flows through the city.
In the central square of the city, in addition to a towering copper pillar, there is also a huge temple. It was the temple of the god of the sea, Poseidon.
The exterior of the temple alone is decorated with immeasurable amounts of gold, ivory, and silver, and from a distance, the entire temple glows beautifully in the light.
"The legendary Atlantis!" The sailors looked at the city in front of them with a beautiful word beyond all they could imagine. In front of this city, it seems that human language is simply unable to describe this great city concretely.
Moreover, some of the most important buildings in the city are decorated with gold and silver. It can be said that the whole city is completely made of gold.
The only fly in the ointment is that this huge city has no inhabitants. The whole city was lifeless, without the slightest bit of life. And, above the city, there is an invisible barrier that protects the city. Isolate the sea above the city from the city, protecting the city from the sea.
"When you enter the city, don't take anything indiscriminately." Looking at the expressions of these sailors and the green glowing eyes, Jiang Ning knew what these pirates were thinking.
"This is the territory of Poseidon, the god of the sea, and no one knows whether there is danger inside." If you touch something because of the indiscriminate taking, then you all stay at the bottom of the sea and wait to die! ”
The faces of the sailors changed in unison, although some people were not convinced, but after looking at Jiang Ning's appearance, this disbelief dissipated in an instant. If it were someone else, the Pirate Sailor Gate might not be big or small, but it was a wizard facing supernatural powers. No one had the courage to do so, but they knew very well that the wizard in front of them had unimaginable power, and no one dared to experience the power of the wizard for themselves.
Glancing with a warning look, Jiang Ning stepped towards Atlantis, and when he passed the statue of Poseidon, the god of the sea, Jiang Ning stopped. Facing the sea god, salute respectfully.
Regardless of whether the sea god is there or not, there should be no less humility.
No one knows what the hearts of the gods are. Some may be lenient and benevolent, others may be narrow-minded, and the gods of the Greek gods, except for Prometheus...... The other gods, don't talk about it!
After passing the two huge stone statues of Poseidon, Jiang Ning and his party entered Atlantis completely. This feeling is a natural idea that arises when everyone crosses an invisible barrier.
With their feet on the huge stone pavement, everyone's eyes looked around at the scenery on both sides of the road. The legendary continent of Atlantis, which has always existed only in myths and legends. And now, as one of the first (and maybe someone else?) Visitors, this personal experience is enough for them to go out and brag to their children and grandchildren for the rest of their lives.
Even though no one may believe it, it is undoubtedly a great honor for the aquatic people. It is greater than opening up a great voyage and circumnavigating the world.
"It's so rich here!" Sailors walked through the streets of the city, looking at the buildings on both sides of the road, some of which were known to be civilian houses at a glance, but the walls were still decorated with gold or silver. And some special buildings, such as aristocratic houses and other houses, are inlaid with gold, silver and ivory, and there are countless others. The whole city, utterly, was built of gold, silver, and ivory.
The closer you get, the more you can feel the charm of this great city; Copper products can be found everywhere in the buildings on the streets, as well as in some places that seem to be entertaining. This shows that Atlantis, as rumored, has no shortage of copper ore at all, and this can also be proved by the huge copper pillar of thousands of meters.
The bronze pillar is engraved with numerous ornaments and reliefs, as well as a giant relief of the god Poseidon; In addition, there are some beautiful and intricate texts written in beautiful characters.
Another thing to marvel at is that in addition to all of the above, the other thing is the canal system that spreads throughout the city. These canal systems, protected by the enchantment set by the god of the sea, are intact. The same is true for the whole city, where there is little damage. The flow of water in the canal system is still in a state of living water, and the construction of the entire canal system is extremely developed. Extravagant Atlanteans, dotting the canal banks with endless copper products.
The banks of the canal are reinforced with neatly cut stone slabs and stone strips. The piers, the stone steps, and some of the places that seemed to be places of recreation and rest were all reinforced with large blocks of bluestone and marble, and in these places a large number of bridges were built. The bridges are also beautifully decorated, with gold, silver, ivory and some precious stones adorning the bridges. In addition to this, there are a large number of copper products and art decorations, which dot these places.
Along the way, the city has been an eye-opener, both in size and in luxury. This exotic architecture, as well as the opulence of Atlantis, is an eye-opener. It's a pity that because of Jiang Ning's strict order, no one dares to touch these things. Therefore, the bitter sailors could only salivate at the countless gold, silver, ivory, and precious stones. It's like a cat that is constantly scratching you with its own paws.
"Poseidon's Temple!" Not long after, everyone followed Jiang Ning's steps and walked towards another strange and tall building in the center of the city. That's the temple of Poseidon, the god of the sea!
This tall temple building is nearly a thousand meters high and hundreds of meters wide, plus the annex palace of the temple, the entire temple covers an amazing area.
Directly in front of this temple, in the center of the place; Standing stands the idol of Poseidon, which seems to be made of gold and is hundreds of meters high. In his hand he held a trident, which was made from a patchwork of countless gemstones.
Jiang Ning turned a blind eye to the wealth in front of him, and the sailors who followed him looked at the endless wealth. kept swallowing saliva, staring at the endless wealth, but unfortunately could only look at it and couldn't move.
Then, Jiang Ning walked into the temple with his feet up, stepped on the tall marble steps, and then entered the interior of the temple. On the walls around the temple, there are large frescoes everywhere, including dome frescoes, and the interior of the temple. It is a sea of money, a floor paved with gold, pillars made of silver, ornaments made of ivory, and a cosmic starry sky adorned with precious stones. All in all, it is difficult to describe even one ten-thousandth of the scene here in the words of human beings.
Extremely luxurious, extremely luxurious, can only be described in this word.
And the idol of Poseidon, sitting on a huge golden throne, with a trident pestle in the hands of the huge idol about a hundred meters high, is on the floor. The eyes were two rare and flawless sapphires, and a heavy divine power permeated the temple. Sapphire's eyes seemed to stare at the humble being who walked into the temple.
Coupled with the inexplicable aura in the air, which cannot be seen or touched, the people who walked into the temple involuntarily had the mood of worship. The sailors, Jack and Blackbeard, involuntarily fell to their knees and bowed to the statue of Poseidon. In his mouth, he involuntarily uttered a prayer in praise of the god Poseidon!
Only Jiang Ning, gritting his teeth, resisted the endless divine might. The artifact on his chest, the even more magical and unpredictable power of fate seemed to be challenged, and his closed eyes opened, revealing gold and green.
And with that, an endless glow!
