Chapter 390: The First Exploration of the Temple
The door of the temple was ajar, and when the three of them entered, they saw the twelve-sided hall, although it was dilapidated and undefeated due to disrepair, but the momentum was still magnificent, and the ceiling of nearly 100 meters high made people feel as small as ants.
"Be careful!" Harley didn't know much about architecture, he didn't see the windows on the walls, but the hall was not dark at all, and the dusk sunset shone in after a few refractions, leaving behind pillars of orange light, and dust floated in them, like elves.
Downton counted it, and there were a total of twelve thick stone pillars in the hall, which went straight from the ground to the dome, without connecting gaps, and were completely one.
"How the hell did you make this stone pillar?" Downton was shocked by the mural carved on the stone pillar, but was quickly drawn by the blood stains on the floor.
"The corpse should have been eaten, right?" Harley checked the blood that had clotted Chengdรน, and it was less than a day.
"Which door shall we go through?" Thyssen, unafraid of danger, looked at the eight doors leading to the rest of the temple and couldn't wait to start his adventure.
Harley looked at Downton, waiting for his decision, and at some point, the two of them had already taken him as the leader.
"The second on the left. Downton looked at the floor in front of the eight doors and chose one with messy footprints.
According to the layout of many temples, generally speaking, the largest door in the middle should be the altar area leading to the core, which is the most valuable, and the people who choose the most are naturally the most, and Downton doesn't want to fight with others.
"Someone must have gone in there, right? Even if there was loot, it was taken. Thyssen was not out of nothing, having guessed Downton's intentions.
"Not necessarily, someone goes first, which means that the trap and trap must have been stepped on once. "Downton is all about safety, and it's up to God to see how much loot you can get.
The three of them tried to slow down as much as possible, but the temple was too quiet. The footsteps are still clearly audible, and occasionally some sounds can be heard, which is creepy.
As dusk approached and the sunset fell, Downton handed out the Night Pearl to the two of them, the soft light was not as dazzling as that of the magic stone lantern. It's also not easy to arouse the desire of Warcraft to attack.
"This map is not right!" Downton looked at the map given by the elders, and found a lot of mistakes.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know that either. Thyssen tilted his head, looked at it a few times, looked embarrassed, and quickly clarified, "But the elder definitely didn't lie to you." โ
"Don't mind. "Downton didn't pay attention to it at all, in fact, he didn't say a word, he didn't expect this map at all.
Parchment and a tree garden pen were removed. Downton marks the route traveled.
As the minutes ticked by, Downton and Harley had been intently checking the environment, and Thyssen had become restless, grabbing his hair frequently.
As a giant, his patience is very limited, and he would rather fight than be silent.
"Looking at the architectural style, there is no doubt that it should have been built by giants. "Halley noticed whatever the supplies. All of them are several sizes larger than those used by humans.
Downton didn't answer, for a demon scorpion silently scurried down from the shadows on the stone pillar. Straight to his head.
Wow!
Green corrosive venom jets.
The moment the soul shield popped out, the liquid mass also appeared above Downton's head, unfolding into an umbrella shape, without wasting it at all, taking all the venom and reflecting it immediately.
Zira!
The scorpion that was poured out screamed. The chitin shell bubbled with blood in the sound of corrosion, melted away, and in pain, it lost its balance and hit its head to the ground.
"Look at me!"
Thyssen rushed over in a few big strides, carrying a battle axe and a giant seal.
Rumble!
Half of the scorpion's tail was cut off. Yellow bodily fluids splattered.
"It's worthy of the direct giant bloodline. Downton praised, it was also a giant martial art, and Thyssen was five times more powerful than him.
"That's so cool!" Thyssen laughed, attacking so hard that the scorpion couldn't raise its head, and kept retreating, screaming higher than one another.
Downton illuminated the night pearl and saw the whole picture of the demon scorpion.
It is a scorpion larger than a rhinoceros, dark red all over, with fine markings on its back, and in addition to a front claw large enough to cut through steel, its tail hook not only spews venom, but also lightly pierces steel plates.
Thyssen dodged, and the tail hook poked large holes in the floor, choking with dust.
"Be careful, the demon scorpion is a social creature!" Thyssen had just finished reminding him, and a dozen demon scorpions quickly climbed down the stone pillar, spurring towards their prey while spraying poison to suppress it.
"Homer, give me the battle box!" Downton, a giant windmill, cut a passage and retreated to the corner, "Thyssen, Harley come back and fight against the corner, otherwise he will be besieged from all sides." โ
"Harley, give you Hellfire!" Thyssen said to throw the case he was carrying to Harley.
"Thanks, I don't. "Harley is very stubborn, and he refuses very simply, if he were an ordinary person, he would have been eager to grab it without Thyssen's humility.
The elemental arm carried the battle box at Downton's feet, and he stepped on it.
The machine pressed down, and the metal scales spread and spread, enveloping Downton's body.
"Get out of here!" Downton plunged his saber into the ground, swung his fists sharply, and fired fire bombs that flew the demon scorpions that were about to get closer, and after gaining time to arm, the scales also spread to his shoulders, and then covered down.
If the body moves, it will affect the armor.
"Thyssen, don't be too big, armed armor, Homer, give Harley a suit of order. Downton, who was armed, went out again, buying his companions time.
"Thank you!"
Harley is not hypocritical, the demon scorpion is too powerful, any delay may cause attrition, or even annihilation.
The interior of the temple is cool and dim, which happens to be the living environment that the demon scorpions like, so they all lay eggs and build nests here, and their hunting actions are generally based on the family unit.
The first to attack was the male matriarch, the largest individual, and the others were his wives and children.
"Good equipment, it's a perfect level!" Harley was an orthodox Templar after all, and as soon as he put on the Armor of Order, he felt the divine power contained in it, especially after holding the Sword and Shield of Order.
Swish!
As Harley swung his sword, a white arc of holy light shot out, and the blood of a demon scorpion shot out.
"Hey, why is it that he wears the order to bring such a big boost?" Downton didn't know.
"It's faith, as far as you, a half-paladin, the goddess of justice will not favor you. Homer explained, "Unlike Harley, his faith is so devout that it can fully activate the blessings on the Order suit. โ
Sacred equipment like this is baptized and blessed, and the more devout believers believe, the more powerful it will be.
"Downton. Harley stopped talking.
"Take it if you want. Downton guessed the subtext of his friend.
"Thank you!" Harley was moved by Downton's generosity, and as a Templar, he couldn't contain his fondness for the Order suit, "Goddess, please forgive me for my greed." โ
The bloody battle continued, and the scorpion's chelicera and tail hook kept slashing at the armor, but not even a single hair of the three Downtons was hurt, no way, the equipment was really good.
"Thyssen, how many Hellfire battle boxes do you still have in your tribe?" Downton once again realized the importance of equipment, if he wore a general armor, he would have been stabbed into a blood gourd by the demon scorpion, how could he completely give up defense like now and fight back with all his might.
"I don't know, but each family will definitely have a set, because this is a must-have for our Krupp teenagers, and when we reach adulthood and grow taller, we will no longer use it, but change to new equipment. Thyssen explained that for Krupp, forging equipment was a leisure and pastime, and there was no such thing as zร i fatigue, so they did not lack armor and weapons.
"Help me negotiate with the chief, we need to buy a hundred sets. Downton thought for a moment and found that the ghouls didn't need it, and the ogres and abominations were too tall to wear them, "Forget it, buy it first and save it, it's a big deal to resell it, and you can't hit it in your hand anyway." โ
Downton thought of Schwarzenegger, the barbarian who had been away for months, saying that he was looking for a companion, but he was still nowhere to be found, and it was not known whether he had run away or been killed.
"No problem, if you exchange the materials from the Western Earth Continent, you will definitely be able to get it. "Thyssen packed the ticket, many giants' children have come of age, and keeping the battle box is also dusty, so it is better to sell it.
"Is it so easy?" Downton was stunned, and then couldn't sit still, "Let's rush back today and make a deal." โ
"In such a hurry?"
"Of course, I don't want someone else to buy Hellfire first. "Downton doesn't like to be in debt, so he was originally going to wait until Homer had built a teleportation array and brought back a large amount of supplies from the West before trading, but now it seems that he has to plan ahead.
"What if someone pre-orders the box?" Downton realized that he had made a mistake, but it didn't matter, there was still a chance to make amends.
"Actually, you don't have to buy it, I'll go back and find my companions, if they promise to be your followers, they will definitely bring their own equipment. โ
Thyssen's words made Downton's eyes light up, if he could form a Krupp giant army, then his strength would increase in a straight line, and there should be no problem in dominating the entire Western Territory.
The demon scorpions were powerless in front of the three powerful tin cans, and after the patriarch's head was cut off, they wisely chose to evacuate.
You're welcome to the Grimoire and suck the remnants of the soul.
Downton dug out the scorpion's brain and guts and prepared it for Jackson.
"Let's go!" Downton was about to leave, but he had just walked a few steps when he heard a few hurried shouts.
"Hurry up, they're in the chapel ahead, don't let them run. โ
Hearing this shout, the faces of the three Downtons changed, and they all rushed to the door, wanting to leave, otherwise it would be bad to be blocked, but unfortunately they were still one step late.
As soon as the three of them rushed to the door, a series of crossbow arrows shot like a torrential rain, hitting the armor, bursting out with a dense sound of steel and brass.
If it weren't for the good equipment, this wave of attacks would have been shot into a hornet's nest. (To be continued......)
