#109.Climb the tower
Sometimes Lena didn't understand such a thing as fate, because he was so wonderful that it was unreasonable, and she looked at the two glow Kamish cubs in the exploration team from afar, and her heart did not fluctuate, and she even wanted to scold the street.
Can you not scold the street?,Wherever you go, you can meet this stubborn thing who has always regarded himself as an evil existence and has been crusading and fighting and defeating and defeating.,In exchange for whom, eight CDs will scold people.。
The remaining two percent are probably actionists, the kind that goes up directly and slaps his mother first.
Without alerting the team, Lena pulled Ballard, who was carrying Heine, behind a high wall, and was relieved when the exploration team was gone.
Knowing that it was Lena who had seen it, Ballard hesitated for a moment but did not express his thoughts, as he felt that it was not appropriate for him to explode into a foul language.
Considering the problems of the Kamish family, the two chose another path to the mountain-like tower.
The closer you get to the tower, the more luxurious the building becomes, especially after passing through each "loop" of high walls.
From this it is not difficult to see that the city had a very clear hierarchy or class system, but this system was not differentiated according to wealth, but according to a symbolic identity.
- The architectural style of the temple near the tower is closer to the worship temple, and by the time the two men pass through the last high wall, the architectural design is no longer habitable, and is replaced by a sacrificial style built out of respect for the object of worship.
It may not be easy to understand this, but in the Lena colloquial wayman's terms, you should think of a church around the bottom of the tower.
After a period of observation, Lena and Ballard were able to confirm that the so-called "Circle of Churches" could actually be seen as a single building, but time had eroded their connecting ports to make them look like temples built independently.
This architectural style made the two of them suddenly alert.
Yes, in the eyes of the usual scholars, this style of architecture would be understood as a supreme reverence for the faith, but in reality, the real function of this round complex is to baptize and isolate.
At every tenth point of the circle, there is a presiding platform or an automatic working device, whatever it is, they will be running at all times, in order to prevent the excessive force inside the circle from causing more mental or physical impact on the surrounding creatures. At the same time, believers can "receive" the "safe" power they have exchanged for their faith here, receive baptism, and be inspired by divine grace.
This strange form has withdrawn from the stage of history with the retreat of the demon god and the false god, and now the sudden sight of this civilization from ancient times has to make the two of them mention the spirit of twelve.
Tiamat, once really lived here.
Tiamat's body was huge, and the castle at the top of the tower was majestic, but it was impossible to put down Tiamat's huge body.
So He may have lived underground, or he could have hid inside this mountain tower.
"Then that's the problem," Ballard said in a subtle tone, looking up at the tower that was hard to see the top, "If you dare to build such a castle on top of Tiamat, can you classify the owner of the castle as 'those who can control Tiamat'?" ”
"I don't rule it out."
Looking around, Lena found a path that allowed her to climb the spiral arch.
"Anyway, let's go up and have a look first, if it weren't for Yinyao's too dazzling eyes, it would be easier for us to parachute directly into that castle."
"I've read the runes you printed."
At this time, Calytan's voice suddenly entered the ears of the two of them.
Lena turned her head to look at what she saw, and she almost screamed out in fear - Caletan popped a head out of Ballard's shoulder, counting Heine's head on the other side, and Ballard said that he was in the human form of the Three-Headed Hellhound.
"I said, sister, can we stop being so scary? You want to put the name of the Lord of Naraku on the throne. ”
Ignoring Lina's complaints, Calitan kept this state and got down to business directly: "Those runes are a kind of symbolic symbols, which may have carried the power of Tiamat back then, and it stands to reason that his level should not let the power in the runes dissipate over time, so judging by the current situation, Tiamat may have had an accident." ”
"Something?"
"Yes, deep slumber or fall will make the runes infused with will lose their power," Calitan added another possibility, thinking about it, "Of course, his voluntary withdrawal is also one of the possibilities, but either one proves that something happened to Tiamat." ”
"If something really happens, the existence that can make him have an accident is also terrifying." Ballard said solemnly.
"Anyway, let's go up and have a look...... Anything else to discover? ”
The four of them were back on their way, and in order to avoid being seen by the others, Lena set up a magic circle around them to shield them.
"No, I need at least one set of benchmark translations to compare the text, otherwise who can read the Book of Heaven."
So the hope of pinning the interpretation on Calitan was dashed.
But it doesn't matter, once she arrives at the castle, Lena is sure that something new will be discovered.
The process of climbing the tower from the bottom is tedious and hard, and superhumans like Rao Lena and Ballard have to stop regularly to rest in order to recover their exerted physical strength, which can be regarded as maintaining the best fighting condition at all times.
However, this climb allowed the two to make a new discovery, and this spiral staircase, which could be said to be "straight to the temple" at that time, still has traces of being climbed by many people. On the inside of the man-made staircase, there are two large and one small shallow pits on each step, which if you guess correctly, this is supposed to be the mark left during the "pilgrimage" - get down on your knees, bow your head reverently, then climb the first step, and so on until you reach the top.
Lena and Ballard didn't express much of their opinion about the culture, one place and one custom, and there was not much to talk about.
At most, I just sigh that the will of these former pilgrims is incomparably firm.
As the altitude increased, the traces of those pilgrimages became fainter and fainter, and when the two of them reached the summit, they could no longer be seen.
Maybe it's too few people who get here, or maybe it's something else.
Facing the howling wind in the air, Lena set her eyes on the castle that was not far away.
