Chapter 293: The Torch of Divinity (Today's Chapter 1 Arrives)

"This island, sinking? Why? Chu Nan was shocked, and besides, he didn't feel any signs of sinking on the island.

The man said: "Of course you outsiders don't know, we have lived on this island for many years, and we found that the sea level is rising, constantly flooding the shore of the island, and later, we understand that it is not the sea level that is rising, but our island, which is sinking. โ€

"At this rate, maybe in ten days, the entire island will sink into the ocean, and all of us will die." When the man said this, everyone around him showed a look of fear on their faces, looking at Chu Nan, as if they felt that Chu Nan was their savior.

Hearing this, Chu Nan's heart shook slightly, and he thought of the time limit for this Gaia trial, which was exactly fifteen days, which was about the same time as the island was about to sink completely.

However, Chu Nan understood that he couldn't help them.

There was a hint of hesitation on his face, and then he said: "The island is going to sink, and only escape is the only way out, but around this island, it is isolated by an invisible barrier, and it is impossible to get out, maybe, half a month later, this island is completely sunk, and Gaia's consciousness should have no reason to block this place anymore, maybe, at that time is your only chance to escape, since Rhodes Island has a huge port, there should be no shortage of ships." โ€

"Yes." The crowd around them nodded busily.

"Therefore, the only problem is that there are still those bronze colosses, there are bronze colosses, and everyone is afraid to go out, let alone board the ship before the island sinks, and I am afraid that these bronze colossias will even destroy the ship."

Chu Nan quickly sorted out his thoughts. If the island really sank in ten days. Gaia's consciousness could no longer shield and isolate here. This meant that it was the only chance to escape, and all the people had to do was board the ship that remained in the harbor before the island sank into the ocean completely.

However, with the existence of bronze colosses, this seemingly simple thing becomes complicated.

The others also understood, and the man said, "If you want to destroy those bronze colossias of Miรจ, the only way to find the statue of the sun god Helios that truly has divinity." Only the power of Helios can defeat these fake sun statues. โ€

Chu Nan's heart moved: "According to legend, didn't the Colossus of the Sun God, one of the Eight Wonders of the World, have been destroyed by a major earthquake in BC?" โ€

Speaking of the big earthquake, Chu Nan suddenly thought of the fact that the world is like this now, and it is also because of a big earthquake, they are all earthquakes, will there be any connection between them?

"In that earthquake, the bronze statue of the sun god Helios fell, but it was not destroyed. According to records, after the fall of this statue. The people of Rhodes received timely assistance from Ptolemy III of Egypt, which was sufficient to cover all the costs of renovating the fallen bronze colossus. โ€

"However, an oracle prevented Jusuke from rebuilding, and even Ptolemy III's assistance was denied."

Chu Nan nodded and said, "It seems to be this statement, could it be that there is another inside story in it?" โ€

"Yes, the oracle had already given instructions, so after that the bronze statue fell in the ruins of the gods, until a thousand years later, a Jew from Syria used 900 snakes to transport the remains of the statue to Syria, and these are all the legends."

Chu Nandao: "Yes, it's like the Statue of Liberty in the United States, which is the French sculptor Augustus?" Bartholdi was inspired by the bronze colossus of the sun god Helios. However, since even the remains of this colossus have been transported to Syria, you say that the real colossus of the sun god is needed to defeat these pseudo-bronze colossi...... Could it be that there is another hidden meaning in this? โ€

The man nodded and said, "Yes, these are also part of the oracle, although the remains of the colossus of the sun god have been removed, but as a part of the divinity, they have been retained, what we need to do is to find this part of the divinity that has been preserved in Rhodes." โ€

Chu Nan perked up and said, "What is the part of divinity that has it?" โ€

"Torch." The man whose name Chu Nan had never known had a solemn face and said slowly.

Chu Nan was stunned: "Torch? โ€

"As you said, the Statue of Liberty in the United States was created in the original form of the sun god Helios, then, you should know that the torch in the hand of the Statue of Liberty, in fact, there is also a torch on the hand of the statue of the sun god Helios, and this torch is the colossus as a symbol of divinity, and those pseudo-bronze giants lack this divinity."

Chu Nan was a little speechless, with the torch, does he have divinity?

The man continued: "In Greek mythology, Prometheus stole the sacred fire from Mount Olympus to have human civilization, fire is a divine thing in mythology, this torch can ignite the divine fire, make the giant god become a divine nature, so we need to find the torch of the sun god Helios who was left behind. โ€

Chu Nan felt a little crazy, here listening to the unknown man in front of him said this almost mythical thing, but looking at the looks of everyone around him, they all thought it was true, it seemed that this was a matter of course, maybe the country of Greece was different, and those myths had long been deeply rooted in the marrow and soul of this nation.

"In that case, you should know where the torch is hidden, why don't you look for it?" Chu Nan didn't have a very good way to deal with the bronze colossus, although it was a good idea to hide here for half a month, but after listening to everyone's statement, the island was about to sink, and he hid here, and all these people in front of him were going to die.

"That's why we think you've been sent in by the gods to help us." When the man said this, he became a little excited, and said, "Because the place where the torch is placed is guarded by a false god, we are just some very ordinary people, and we can't get through guรฒ. โ€

Chu Nan had already seen that these people in front of him were not awakened, but all ordinary humans, and the explanation for this could only be that this place was abandoned by Gaia, except for those resurrected bronze colosses, other creatures were still maintained at their original level, or even inferior.

Like the towering ancient trees I saw before, none of them evolved into mutants, all of them were what they used to be, and even lost energy.

In this regard, Chu Nan's guess is that some kind of evolutionary power in the entire Rhodes Island has been absorbed by the Bronze Colossus, so the Bronze Colossus is resurrected, but other living beings are deprived of this right.

Or maybe it's the result of the dominance of Gaia's consciousness in the dark.

Listening to the man's words, Chu Nan finally understood their thoughts.

Somewhere on this island, there is a torch they call divinity, which can defeat the Bronze Colossus and save the inhabitants of the island, but it is guarded by the Bronze Colossus.

Only by defeating the bronze colossus can you get the torch.

That's why everyone in front of them wants to save themselves.

"If it's just a bronze colossus, it's not impossible to gather the strength of some children of the earth." Chu Nan thought of the woman in black who was manipulating the sand phoenix qin, the blue immortal who was holding the water crane bottle, and the king squid.

Together, they can briefly entangle the bronze colossus, and then take this opportunity to find the torch.

Of course, the danger can also be imagined, because on this island, there are twelve bronze colossiums.

Chu Nan suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Since the torch has divinity, why don't you get this torch and make yourself have divinity?" โ€

"If they have divinity and take the torch, no matter how hard we try, it will be useless."

The man shook his head and said: "This is impossible, because the torch has the divinity of the sun god Helios, not the real colossus of the sun god, and it can't bear this divinity at all, and it will only be destroyed, but these false gods are very afraid of being taken away by others, so at any time, there is a false god guarding there." โ€

"Well, in that case, even if we get the torch, how can we deal with these bronze colosses, didn't you say that except for the colossus of the sun god, there is nothing to withstand the divinity in this torch?"

"I don't know about this, but according to the oracle, after another great earthquake that can cause upheaval in the whole world, there will be some selected descendants of Gaia, who are the true inheritors, who can accept the torch of divinity, and with the power of the sun god Helios, destroy these false gods, and lead this world that is about to fall into ruin and darkness to a new golden age."

"I think maybe the descendants of Gaia are referring to you."

When the man said this, Chu Nan was completely stunned.

The great earthquake that caused the drastic changes in the whole world has already occurred, and the so-called descendants of Gaia who are singled out obviously refer to them, the sons of the earth, because the sons of the earth can also be called the sons of Gaia.

This means that their sons of the earth, who can withstand the divine power of the torch, can destroy the miรจ bronze colossus, and most importantly, the oracle thousands of years ago has predicted what will happen today?

This is really incredible, and even Chu Nan's atheistic views are a little shaken.

Could it be that there are really gods in this world?

Soon, Chu Nan shook his head again, even if there are gods, they are only the reference to some powerful creatures, and he will never believe that there are gods in the true sense.

Just like in the eyes of the little ants in the past, the existence of human beings is not the god in their minds?

But the truth is that human beings are just creatures many times more powerful than ants, and they are also fragile and fragile in life, old age, sickness and death. (To be continued......)
