Chapter 1777: Lizard Slave
It's a humble city.
At the entrance, there is a low stone wall, and the stone wall has a feeding enclosure, in which animal excrement can be seen everywhere, and the smell is overwhelming. There is no separation between the enclosure and the city, and around the circle is a row of low stone houses. Obviously, there is no so-called planning in the city, and there are many stone houses, leaving only a few relatively large streets for traffic.
Naturally, the streets were not paved with stone bricks, but with bare grass. The grass on the ground had already been flattened, and there were a few dark green streets scattered throughout the gray city. Most of the stone houses are covered with green vines, and the streets are occasionally covered with a low tree that is one of the few greenery in the city.
Some of the houses have cisterns at the back, but there are no wells in the city, and it seems that the inhabitants living in the city do not have the technology to tap groundwater. Or, there is no underground water source under the city, so you have to go to a distant river to draw water for storage.
The water in the tank has not yet dried, indicating that the residents have not been away for long. No farming tools have been found in the city, and it seems that the inhabitants of the city do not grow crops, in fact, Alan has never seen any farmland along the way.
Moreover, the tools or utensils that can be seen in the houses are very rudimentary, which shows that the level of civilization in the city is not high.
A city with a low level of civilization, but considering the ancient creatures of the plains at the entrance, this is obviously an isolated world, so it is not surprising that such a city would appear.
In fact, the indigenous tribes of the Garden of Eden were not much more civilized, or even lower than the city. After all, the inhabitants here have formed a city-state form, which is much stronger than the tribe.
"Your Highness, look at this." Ruijin emerged from a bungalow with a piece of wood in his hand. He handed it to Alan, who took it in his palm and realized it was a sculpture. Despite the rudimentary sword skills, it can be barely seen that it is a lizardman.
The lizard-man appeared to have armor, and it held a warhammer in one hand and pointed at its feet with the other, with some kind of religious overtones.
Alan looked at the wood carving and said, "It seems that the inhabitants here believe in those lizards, and I don't know what kind of natives they are." ”
He returned the wood carvings to Ruijin, who put them away, and the things were to be taken to the fortress for research.
They walked through the city, past an irregular square. There were traces of a bonfire burning in the square, and the ground was blackened and charred, and it seemed that a party had been held here not long ago. In the middle of the square, a stone pillar was also seen, from which a skeleton was hanging. The bones were pitch black and seemed to be charred. The skeleton is incomplete, with many bits missing, but barely visible with hands and feet, and is a humanoid creature.
Finally they came to the stone tower.
Looking under the stone tower, I realized that the tower was huge. It looks like a low mountain, and the stone tower is cylindrical, with dozens of floors. Doors and windows of various sizes were scattered on each floor, and they were open, so that there were black holes.
Alan walked through the gate of the stone tower, and the entrance was a narrow passageway, and the sides were actually hard rock. Flowers and plants have even popped up in the cracks of some stone walls, and it seems that this stone tower has been carved out of natural rock, which is not a simple project.
The passage was not straight, and it took three turns before Alan came out of it. In the center of the stone tower is a large hall with wooden stakes placed in the hall. The stakes were black in color, and appeared to have been cut from the trees of the Night Forest. The stakes are all pressed with gray stones. Ruijin picked up a piece, the stake was hollow inside, with some gray powder and black-charred bones.
He said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid this is a tomb. ”
After reading it, Alan agreed with Ruijin's inference. The stakes contained ashes and unburned remains. There are a lot of wooden piles stacked here, and if it's all the same stuff, it's not an exaggeration to say that this tower is a burial chamber.
He looked up, and above him were staggered stone beams. In the shadow of one of the stone beams, something suddenly flashed.
"Smiller." Alan pointed in that direction.
The Imperial General crouched down slightly, and then sprang up like a rocket. He was heavily armoured, with a greatsword and a conical spear. The weight of the whole person was extremely high, and this one broke through the air, and immediately gave birth to a dull roar in the stone tower.
A moment later, Smiller fell, his feet stomping on the ground in a circle of air. Then someone was thrown to the ground by him, it was a short and thin man, he was wrapped in a black robe, and his bare arms were dry in skin, like tree bark. The complexion is slightly dark and covered in spots.
He was shivering in his robes and uttering syllables that Alan didn't understand.
Alan crouched down and lifted the cap of his robe, revealing a head nearly twice the size of a human. The head was bare, with a few hairs sparsely stretched. Then the creature looked up, his head was so big, but his features were pitifully small, and his eyes, nose, and mouth were all squeezed in the middle, which looked ridiculous.
But no one in the tower could laugh.
"Who are you?" Alan asked, not expecting him to answer.
Sure enough, his eyes were blank, and he couldn't understand Allen's language at all. Alan even changed several languages, but there was no response. At last he had an idea, and used the language of Ebonnes, but the big-headed fellow showed a listening expression, and then replied, "Lizard slave." ”
Allen's heart shook slightly, if this creature knew the language of Ebonnes, then this must be one of the king's treasures. He quickly glanced at Lucy, who immediately understood and lost his voice: "Here are the clues to the treasure trove?" ”
"The treasure trove, to be exact, is here."
Alan asked, "Who taught you this language?" ”
"Kana." The lizard slave sat up trembling and stretched out his hand to the bottom of the tower: "Kana, God." The Lizard King, the Divine Messenger. ”
He patted himself again: "Lizard slave." ”
Alan frowned, although this lizard slave knew the language of Ebones, it was obvious that they only knew a few words. I can barely hear that a person named Kana is worshipped as a god by the lizard slaves, and since the language is taught by Kana, then this Kana is the child of the twilight of a certain era. Next, the Lizard King is the messenger of the gods, and as for them, they are the slaves of the Lizard King, so they call themselves Lizard Slaves.
So are the so-called lizard kings and those lizards the army in the treasury? Looking at the bottom of the tower, Alan stood up and said, "Take me to see it." ”
The lizard slave looked weak, and although he nodded in agreement, he couldn't stand up. Ruijin called a member of the team to carry him, and Alan told Smiller to stay at the bottom of the tower, and Ruijin also left most of the team, and only Lucy, White, and Ruijin went up with Alan.
Guided by the lizard slaves, they burrowed into another passage in the hall. Soon you will see a stone staircase that stretches upwards and goes up to the second floor, where many places are suspended, and only the stone beams are stretched like a bridge. They had to pass through these stone beams from time to time to get to the upper floors, some of which did not have to be passed through at all, and seemed to be some kind of misleading ploy.
However, this place is completely useless for the strong, and I am afraid that these settings are just to prevent other lizard slaves from reaching the top of the tower.
As he made his way to the top of the tower, Eren asked some questions, and the lizard slave answered them truthfully, giving Eren a general idea of the area.
The lizard slaves called the land they lived in "Red Tucker", which means "ancestral habitat". They have been living in this land for a long time, and the fertility of the saurus is very high, but the survival rate of the fetus is very low, which invisibly forms a balance. This allows the sauropers to reproduce without overpopulating the ecology and throwing the ecology out of balance.
Their ancestors have lived in Red Tak for generations, and these natives have a weak personality and have kept long-billed lizards for the lizard tribe for many years, and according to the description of the lizard slaves, the so-called long-billed lizard is the lizard.
Deep in Red Tak is a sacred place where Kana sleeps and where the lizards live. According to the lizards, the lizards built a huge kingdom there. As for how big it is, this lizard slave can't say clearly.
Just recently, they received an order from the Lizard King to make them move. This lizard slave was too old and was the caretaker of the tomb tower, so he stayed, but he didn't expect to bump into Allen.
As he ascended to the top of the tower, the lizard suddenly pulled the horns of Alan's robes and pointed at him, "Lord." ”
"You say me?" Alan pointed to himself.
The lizard slave nodded and said, "Kana said that she, the master, will come." ”
"You, Lord. You know the language of God. ”
Alan nodded, he roughly understood what the lizard slave meant. Kana must have said that one day, someone who could speak the same language would come, and that person was of course referring to the Child of Dawn, and the saurus worshipped Kana as a god, and the language of Ebonnes was naturally regarded as a god. But what does this god mean? God's master? Eren isn't Kana's master, unless she's a Guardian, but she's clearly one of the Children of Dusk.
The top of the tower has arrived.
There are no wooden stakes on the top floor, and there are paintings on the surrounding walls, and it is unknown what kind of paint was used, which has survived for many years. Except for a few places where the walls are peeling off and forming blanks, the rest of the place is still intact.
The saurop got off the Rattlesnake team, walked to the east wall, pointed to it, and said, "Kana." ”
Then he knelt down on the ground.
Alan looked up, and there was a woman painted on it. She is no different from a human, and even the characteristics of a human woman, she is not lacking. Behind the woman in the painting is a sun, and something like a road sticks out of the sun until it reaches the woman's feet, and it looks like Kana is walking down from the sun.
This has apparently deified her.
Underneath Kana is a huge lizard, and because there are some images representing houses next to it as a reference, it is easy to see that this lizard, if restored to scale, is almost catching up with a battleship.
Alan pointed at it and asked, "This is the Lizard King?" ”
