Chapter 31: Him and Her
Tolan's Templar Guards, guided by the hounds, soon appeared in the Vampire Bat Cave, and judging by the messy footprints and blood stains at the entrance of the cave, Alex and another blasphemer had successfully rendezvous there, and then went deep into the cave together, a discovery that undoubtedly boosted everyone's confidence.
When the hound followed the traces left by the two all the way to the three-way intersection, who would have thought that the cave suddenly shook by an earthquake, and as a result, countless frightened vampire bats swarmed out of the three forks like a tide, and instantly collided with Tolan and others outside the intersection, and after paying a huge price of one death and six injuries, they were able to successfully get rid of the frenzied attack of the vampire bats.
At the same time, Chen An suddenly discovered the silver gate that had appeared after the stone wall fell off due to the earthquake, and when he accidentally opened the silver gate, the temple guards led by Tolan were only a few dozen meters away from Chen An.
However, fate is such a coincidence, if Chen An takes a step at night, or Tolan takes a step forward, there will be another ending between them, but unfortunately, there is no if in the world.
Bang Bang Bang –
Tolan angrily hammered at the silver gate in front of him that was blocking their way, and he was just a little, almost he could catch the two blasphemers!Why was there a mysterious and strange silver gate here!? No matter how he beat it, the silver gate remained as hard as ever, and only the surrounding dirt and sand particles fell from the strong vibration.
"Come on, go back to Bela Oka and tell the priest of Baier what is happening here, and at the same time order someone to bring a large number of digging tools, I don't believe that this strange gate cannot be helped. Tolan jerked his foot at the silver gate, and for a moment, he calmed down and commanded the guards around him.
"Yes!"
After one of the team leaders left with his own teammates, Tolan suddenly leaned against the silver gate and slowly sat on the ground, he looked around at the few temple guards in front of him, each of them had the scars of the fight with the vampire bats just now, he seemed to think of something, and then waved his hand to them. "You should rest, you should recuperate, and by the way, send someone to settle the unfortunate guard who died in battle, I want to be alone. ”
As the words fell, the guards glanced at each other, then silently turned to leave.
"Aren't you leaving?"
When the guards were gone, the hounds were left alone.
"I'm just curious about this mysterious door, so I'm going to stay and take a closer look. The hound said with a blank expression. "Besides, if something unexpected happens, I'll be able to take care of it if I'm there. ”
"Hehe, actually, I wish there was an accident here, and it was better if this strange door opened suddenly!" Tolan shook his head and vented his frustration.
At some point, the hound walked to the gate, he quietly observed the silver gate in front of him, and finally reached out and pressed it directly and stroked it back and forth.
"Captain Tolan, you think this can't be an ancient ruin, right?"
"Ancient Ruins?!" Tolan looked up at the hound beside him and stood up thoughtfully, immediately surveying the silver gate in front of him. "It seems to be a possibility. ”
"Captain Tolan, you see, there's a nameplate here. The hound suddenly made a discovery.
Tolan hurriedly looked and immediately spotted the nameplate pointed by the hounds on the side of the silver gate.
"It seems to have something written on it. ”
"Yes, but I can't read it, what about you?" said the hound, frowning.
"I don't understand either......" Tolan looked at it for a moment and shook his head. "Perhaps it will take the erudite scholars of Bella Oka to understand the meaning of the words. ”
"Unraveling the text on it may allow us to know the origin of this gate, and there may even be a way to open it. The hound guessed.
"Definitely. Tolan shook. "I'll send someone to extract the above text, and then give it to the scholars of Bela Oka to unravel the meaning of the above text!"
......
"Ann, this is the outpost established by the demons, and what's the matter with the unclear voice?"
In the passage inside the silver gate, Alex followed closely behind Chen An, and the whole person was always in a state of dementia with his head covered, specifically described, like an ignorant ancient man who had traveled to the future science fiction era, and his personal worldview was completely collapsed.
"As expected, this is indeed an outpost established by the demon, and the voice just now should be the voice of artificial intelligence. Chen An patiently explained as he walked towards the front of the passage.
In fact, Alex was not the only one who was shocked by his heart, and Chen An was the same, but he was more shocked by the cutting-edge technology level shown by this outpost, and in a trance, it was as if he was living in countless science fiction movies he had watched.
"Artificial intelligence?" Alex was puzzled by the unfamiliar words Chen An said.
“...... You can think of it as a talking puppet. Chen An changed an explanation that Alex could understand.
"Do you understand what the artificial puppet is saying?" Alex asked, as if he were curious.
"Yes, you don't understand because the other person is speaking demonic language. ”
Walking and walking, Chen An and Alex finally arrived at the end of the passage, and there was also a silver gate at the end, but it was much more delicate than the outermost gate.
"Ann, I've been wanting to ask since just now, why do you not only know demonic words, but you can even listen to demonic languages?" Alex looked at Chen An with deep worry and uneasiness in his eyes.
"You don't suspect I'm a demon, do you?"
Chen An immediately understood what he was thinking from Alex's eyes and words.
“...... Don't lie to me, are you really a demon?" Alex said in a panic.
"Alex, I can tell you very clearly, I am a human, not a demon. Chen An stared into his eyes and said solemnly.
"I ...... I believe you......"
Alex suddenly skimmed his face under Chen An's burning gaze, and his voice was weak.
Chen An's face was dull for an instant, and only then did he recall Alex's deep confession to him, but after a series of accidents, the two of them shifted their minds and attention to other places, and now after the situation stabilized, the two seemed to have returned to the moment when the confession happened.
The problem is that Alex does not explicitly state his true gender in his confession, but rather expresses his identity as a woman in a hypothetical way.
So—
Is Alex male or female?
This question is very important, because Chen An is a man with a normal personality orientation, and he has always held an attitude of not rejecting or accepting homosexuality, if Alex is a woman, it is fine, in case the other party is a man......
Just thinking about Chen An made me shudder.
