Chapter 578: Bone Heap
Ansari shook his head and said, "Summoning the Bone Demon consumes a lot of heaven and earth aura, and judging from this area, it is impossible to gather enough aura in a short period of time to use it for the next summon." Brother Yuan, the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is an expert in this aspect, you should be able to feel the sharp decrease in aura, right? ”
Hearing Ansari explain this, I immediately sensed the aura around me, and sure enough, as he said, the aura of heaven and earth nearby was almost completely infelt, as if I had just experienced a big explosion of aura, and the aura in the passage was consumed.
Powerful spells really have limitations, otherwise, if more than two of that bone demon appeared at the same time, we would definitely not be able to deal with it. In fact, the bone demon is not "not very strong" as Da Kui said, on the contrary, this thing is extremely strong.
The Giant Claw Bone Demon only used it for a moment to break the protective cover of the Shattering Talisman, but at the same time, it was also injured by the large amount of golden aura contained in the Spirit Talisman, and then it was injured by the Tiangang Sword, and finally it was scattered by Zhang Ye and the others with electric batons.
The whole process was completed almost instantly, so in Da Kui's opinion, the bone demon was just hit by the electric baton, and then turned into flying ashes, and the role of the Breaking Charm and the Tiangang Sword was directly ignored by him, which was the reason why he thought that the bone demon was not very powerful.
After thinking about this, I think we should stay away from this place as soon as possible, and everyone also thinks that since it is determined that summoning bone demons is an ancient magic method, then judging from past experience, there are almost no traps in the ancient ruins, and there are many strange formations and prohibitions.
Since the summoning technique appeared in the passage, the crisis in other aspects was minimized, because there was no need to make other arrangements, and since the comer could defeat the bone demon, the low-level ambush would be even more ineffective.
Everyone sped up their pace, and due to the whirlwind just now, a large number of ashes were swept into the air, although the whirlwind had already dispersed, but there was white dust everywhere, and the visibility was only less than ten meters away.
The others put on the cameras again, but I had to walk with a flashlight shining on my feet. As we went deeper, larger bone fragments began to appear on the ground, and the number increased.
I had a hunch that there should be a large amount of bones somewhere ahead, and the ashes in the passage were clearly blown by the wind. As I walked, I thought, if this is an ancient ruin, where did the large number of ashes come from? I haven't heard that cremation was popular in ancient times.
I was pondering the source of the ashes when Ansari suddenly said, "There is a situation ahead! ”
He was at the front of the line, so he was the first to notice the anomaly, but I didn't have a thermal imager, so I didn't know what he was referring to.
I immediately asked, "What did you find?" ”
Ansari replied, "I can't tell, the passage should be at the end, there is something in front of it, not a living thing, and it is very messy. ”
I didn't know what he wanted to mean, and as for what was in front of me, I could only know when I got closer. 【愛↑去△小↓說△網.qu】
It didn't take long for the passage to come to an end, and we came to an empty cavern, which looked like a small indoor gymnasium, with uneven ground and large fragments of bones everywhere, but no small ashes in sight.
In the middle is a pile of bones more than ten meters high, broken skeletons of different shapes, many large bones are obviously not human bones. There are dozens of openings around the cave, large and small, and dark passages lead to nowhere.
The wind was gusting in the hall-like cavern, and strange wind sounds were heard from time to time in the passages in all directions, and when it blew through the pile of bones in the middle, it would make a sound like a ghost crying.
As the air flowed, I suddenly smelled a pungent smell, a strong acidic smell that made my nose sour and almost choke on tears. Not knowing the source of the smell, we immediately put on gas masks just in case.
After putting on the mask, the smell faded at once. I carefully looked at the pile of bones, and the bones were densely stacked together, forming a cone about thirty meters in diameter, and the highest point was about ten meters away from the top of the cave.
The composition of the roof of the cave is more special, the round arch of the cave is covered with thick veins, it looks like a magnified blood vessel, but my first feeling is that these should be plant rhizomes, looking at these giant rhizomes, I can't help but think of the giant tree above, could it be that we have reached the bottom of the giant tree?
Zhang Ye and Da Kui were carefully probing the surroundings, and after a while, they told us that they had found no traces of anyone here.
Although we learned that no one cared about this place, everyone was still very cautious, and looking at the countless passages around us, we all ran out of ideas for a while.
Zhang Ye pointed to the edge of the bone pile at this time and said, "The skeleton over there is a little different, you wait, I'll go over and take a look first." With that, he walked over there.
I didn't have a thermal imaging camera, so I couldn't see where he was pointing, so I could only wait curiously for the results of his inspection.
Da Kui was worried that he was in danger alone, so he went over with him, and Lao Pan didn't say much, just asked them to be more careful.
I could vaguely see that Zhang Ye and the two of them squatted down after they walked over, and then looked at something, and after a few seconds, Da Kui waved at us.
Lao Pan said to me, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”
When I came to the pile of bones, I realized that many of these tall skeletons looked huge, like the fossils of prehistoric creatures on display in the museum, and a single rib was several meters long.
What Zhang Ye and the others were looking at was a skeleton more than half a meter long, which at first glance looked like the cervical vertebrae of animals, but on closer inspection, it didn't look very similar. Seeing us coming, Zhang Ye said to Lao Pan: "There is still muscle tissue on this bone that has not completely decayed. ”
Looking at the severed bone, I asked curiously: "What part of the skeleton is this, it looks like a cervical vertebrae, what animal has such a long neck, is it a giraffe?" ”
Ansari also squatted down to check carefully, Zhang Ye suddenly reminded him not to touch it with his hands, there was a very corrosive strong acid on the bones, and then he handed the short knife in his hand to Ansari.
At this time, I saw that Zhang Ye's short knife had changed color, and the original snowy tip of the knife was now dim, and there were even some small pits like spots.
It's so corrosive! Zhang Ye's short knife I know, it is all specially forged with stainless steel, ordinary strong sulfuric acid can not damage it in a short time, what caused it such serious damage?
Ansari frowned and looked at it for a long time, and finally asserted, "This is the remains of a giant python. After he said this, he stood up and looked up at the pile of bones.
I saw him circle around the bone pile for a small half circle, and then pointed to a protruding bone on it and asked Zhang Ye, "Do you see that skull?" Can you get it down? ”
Zhang Ye squinted his eyes and nodded, "No problem, you guys retreat." ”
Although we didn't know what Ansari wanted the bone to do, we still did what Zhang Ye said, and retreated backwards for some distance.
After we walked away, Zhang Ye took out the flying tiger claw from his backpack and threw it at the top of the bone pile.
"Ding!"
The Flying Tiger Claw hit the target accurately, and Zhang Ye stepped back a few meters, and then pulled the rope hard.
"Whoa! ......" After a crash of bones, a giant tabletop-sized skeleton was pulled down and smashed to the ground with a thud.
After the skeleton hit the ground, it was dusty, and just by looking at the volume, you can see that this thing is not light. When the dust settled, I immediately walked over and looked curiously at the huge white bones.
Although it has been reduced to white bones, it can still be seen that this is an enlarged snake head, and as Ansari said, the owner of the skeleton should be a giant python.
It's just that there are two protrusions on the skull of this giant python, like smoothed horns, and the rest of the place is full of potholes, and the part of the back of the head that is connected to the cervical vertebrae is faintly visible with blackened residues.
After careful examination, Ansari asserted: "I don't know what this thing is, but I can conclude that it has only died in the last two days." ”
Looking at the piles of bones that look like a small mountain, I am a little puzzled, many of them are the bones of large animals, who piled them up here? Moreover, there is obviously a strong acidic corrosive substance on the bones, what is the reason for these bones to be destroyed in a centralized manner?
According to Ansari's judgment, this guy who seems to be a giant python has only recently died, and there is no trace of any living creatures here, so who got the bones here?
All this is simply a huge mystery.
