Chapter 365: The First Temple
At the moment when he saw the mermaid's eyes glowing, Gao Qian became alert and immediately retreated. However, it was too late at this time, and the heavy and luxurious door suddenly opened, not like a heavy door that could not be opened by the power of three demigods, but like a curtain that had been opened.
As the gate opened, a strong force also came from the rear at the same time. As if he had been slapped by a giant's hand, the high diver fell headlong into the gate, the rushing water causing him to tumble like a teddy puppet in a drum washing machine. He couldn't even keep his head and feet in a position.
He had no idea where Erin and Kenny were, or where the current was going to pull him. The moment he fell through the door, Erin's hand slipped out of his hand, like a force forcibly separating the two.
The high dive struggled to paddle his limbs, trying to stabilize himself in the water, but in vain. He was starting to feel dizzy, but that wasn't the worst of it. The worst part was that he found that there really wasn't much air in his lungs. Is he really going to be the first demigod to drown in the water without Erin?
However, at this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed the high diver. That hand was as cold as the surrounding water, and the fingers were so slender that the bones on the fingers could almost be felt by the high diver.
At first, Gao Qian thought it was Erin, and then a hint of surprise flashed in his heart. He remembered that Erin had taken his hand before, and that Erin's hand was warm and fleshy, as soft as water. Her hands weren't strong, but they were lingering. She once took his hand and danced on top of her, and the sight of Gao Diving is still unforgettable. And the hands in front of him were so cold that they seemed to come from a dead man.
The high dive felt himself moving rapidly through the current. Although the pitch-black water could not block the view of the high diver, the countless foam from the turbulent current made it impossible for him to see who was holding him. Until his waving hand touched the man's smooth clothes, cold and soft as silk. What kind of person would wear silk clothes in the water? However, before he could think clearly, he fell to the ground hard.
Moist air rushed into his lungs, carrying with it the smell of mold and seaweed. The water flowed quickly from under him into the groove at the base of the wall, and then quickly drained out.
The high dive coughed violently, and a burst of Venus appeared in front of him. Suddenly entering another environment with almost zero pressure from the pressure of heavy water pressure on the bottom of the sea, even he couldn't help the blood vessels in his head suddenly jumping, and there was a burst of tinnitus.
Then he could vaguely distinguish the figure in front of him, and the man who kept talking.
A voice laughed coquettishly: "Eh, it's a pity, I forgot to give you artificial respiration just now." ”
Gao Qian sat up and looked at the woman in front of him in surprise.
She has long blond hair and pretty features. Her eyes are golden, her lips are iridescent, and she wears a chain of green stones around her neck, with a black gemstone at the end. She was wearing a long fiery silk dress, the silk tightly wrapped around her curvaceous body, and her skirt was so large that it dragged to the ground like a bright red betta fish.
When the woman smiled at the high dive and showed a mouthful of sharp teeth, the high dive jumped up with a scream, "You're Rayla!"
The woman looked surprised, then turned to joy, and she nodded to Gao Qian: "It's me, it's me, my dear, it's so happy that you remember me." ”
Remember, of course he remembers, the first time in his life that he suffered at the hands of a female creature, it was this mermaid. This Rayla simply changed his outlook on life towards female creatures.
However, he also remembered that after the Lich attacked the Golden Pterodactyl Free Market, he once asked Master where this Rayla was, and Master said that he had sent Rayla to a place to guard something, and she would not be able to come back in hundreds of years.
Could it be that the place that the master was talking about at that time was King Solomon's treasure? Could it be that Solomon's treasure, which is like a mystery in the legend, has always been under the control of the scavenger?
Yes, wasn't Solomon's sealed brass gall bottle in the hands of the Inquisition? and the artifact fragments that were taken directly by the early scavengers......
So what exactly is it that Rayla is ordered to guard? Could it be true, and what artifact is hidden here? Gao Qian suddenly became a little excited.
Thinking of this, the high dive looked at Rayla. He didn't think she looked as radiant as she had been at the Golden Pterodactyl Market. Her blonde hair was a little dry and split ends, and blue scales had grown on the sides of her cheeks. Her lips were painted with eye-catching lip gloss, but they looked like oil paintings that had lost their color.
"How are you doing here? Rayla. ”
Rayla didn't answer, she just looked the high dive up and down expectantly, then stared at his pocket, as if hoping to put her hand into his pocket, and pulled out something: "Is it time? Are you here to let me out? Do you bring an amnesty?" she asked urgently.
Gao Qian shook his head slightly in embarrassment: "No, I'm not from the base, and I don't have any amnesty orders." ”
Rayla screamed in disappointment, "I really should have let you drown in the water." With that, he turned around and strode into the depths of the main hall. Gao Qian hurriedly followed: "Hey, Rayla, don't do this, maybe you can get out soon." ”
"But I can't wait. Ryla said hatefully, "Scavengers are villains who have nothing to do with their eyes. ”
"Hey, you used poison first, poisoned me. Gao Qian reminded.
"So what, I took a fancy to you, so I tried to get you, is this wrong?"
Rayla's tone was so natural that it made Gao Qian speechless for a while, unable to argue.
Rayla indignantly continued, "In your hypocritical morality, such an approach may not be acceptable. Because you prefer to talk flatteringly, and are accustomed to using trickery and illusions to confuse each other. You like to make promises, but you never keep them, and when you fall in love, you go crazy and blind. Once love has left you, you are more ruthless than any living being. ”
"Have you ever been in a relationship with a human?" Gao Qian couldn't help but guess, such an indignant tone, could it be that he had been abandoned by humans.
"I'm not that stupid," Ryla snorted, "but there are plenty of merfolk who believe in your human rhetoric. ”
"You don't want to talk about the bubble again, that's the story. ”
"That's not a story at all, the frothy merfolk are my own sister. The potion that conjured her feet didn't come from some old witch, but I researched it myself. However, at that time, my technique of refining potions was still very immature, so she suffered a lot. It's a pity that later, all her sacrifices became a joke. ”
Speaking of the potion that turned the fishtail into legs, Gao Qian suddenly remembered the Mirror Lake and the underwater magic array at the bottom of the Mirror Lake. And the blue-haired mermaid, asking for news of Rayla.
"Rayla, do you know a mermaid with blue hair? and the Mirror Lake?"
Rayla in front of her turned around and stared at the high dive suspiciously: "Have you ever seen a blue car? ”
High Diving thought that Rayla had been locked up before the cataclysm, and it was normal that he hadn't heard of the Mirror Lake.
"Is her name Cailan? I don't know, but she does ask for news from you. ”
Rayla was silent for a while, then said, "She's my sister." ”
"You seem to have a lot of sisters. ”
"What's so strange about this, we're fish. ”
It makes sense. High Diver nodded.
Rela continued to walk forward in a low mood, and High Diving noticed that the hall they were traveling through looked grand and tall, but it was empty, with only a golden box in the center of the hall.
The box was slightly larger than the suitcase, golden and inlaid with all sorts of fine gemstones. The four corners of the box are also connected to four golden poles, which appear to be used for lifting. This made the box look like a small golden sedan chair.
"What the hell is this place for, and what is that box for?" Gao Qian wondered.
"This is, of course, the First Temple, and that cabinet is something that can be thrown out and someone will break their heads and grab it. ”
