Chapter 524: Dead City Vilgo

"Virgo......" Wang Xu whispered the passage that was carved in Terran script on the side of the upturned brick. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Could it be ......" Zana turned her head to stare into Wang Xu's eyes, with a look of surprise and puzzlement in her eyes.

Thinking of the ancient books he had read in the past and recorded by the elves, combined with the ancient characters engraved on the bricks, Wang Xu couldn't help frowning, nodded at Zana, and confirmed Zana's guess: "This is the ancient city of Vilgo!"

"What is Virgo?" and after looking at the bricks on the ground and the words on them, Nilou asked the king, "How did I not know that there was a city called Virgo in ancient times!"

"This is a city that has long disappeared, disappeared tens of thousands of years ago, and was built by the human race," Wang Xu manipulated the alchemy puppet to pull out the square brick from the ground, peel off the cracked cement on it, and hold it in front of his eyes for him to take a closer look: "I heard from the goblins that 100,000 years ago, there were many human beings living in our eastern continent, but when their main city of Virgo disappeared, human beings gradually left this continent and mainly lived in the western continent. ”

"How did Virgo disappear?" said Glaya, who was stunned, and asked a question that only a brain-dead person would ask.

"Don't you know where we are now, we are all close to the underground magma layer, a city will appear in this location, there is only one possibility, that is, a volcanic eruption," Wang Xu silently glanced at the empty Glaya in his mind, and explained impatiently: "After the volcano erupted, the underground was empty, so the city fell into the depths of the underground, this is here!"

"Oh......" After listening to Wang Xu's explanation, Graya nodded knowingly.

Wang Xu, who no longer wanted to pay attention to Graya, after repeatedly observing the basalt floor tiles held by the alchemy puppets, said softly, "It looks like paving floor tiles, so it can be seen that the city is not completely covered by magma, if I guessed correctly, the ruins of Virgo City are just ahead." ”

As he spoke, Wang Xu gestured in the direction of the floor tiles, and then pointed to the terrifying area buried in the darkness in the depths of the cave.

"Let's go see ......" Wang Xu's judgment once again aroused the unsatisfied curiosity of the six Nilou girls, so they decided to go over and have a look before Wang Xu could say what they were going to do.

"Okay...... "I also wanted to see Wang Xu of the legendary Terran in Virgo City, the last capital of the Eastern Continent, and nodded in agreement with Nilou's six daughters' plans.

So, guided by the light of the four glowing mahogany swords, Wang Xu slowly marched along the uneven ground after the magma solidified, towards the dark area deep in the cavern.

The more I walked, the more remnants of the man-made buildings around, and I saw that windmills in the shape of steamed buns and small manors with only a few families appeared on the way forward for Wang Xu and them.

It's just that all the windmills and the buildings in the manor are embedded in the black solidified magma, revealing only half of the broken bodies, and those ruined walls are crumbling in the open area waiting for the moment of collapse.

Soon, on the way forward of Wang Xu and them, there was a corpse with half of their body embedded in the solidified magma, and the bodies of these corpses had fallen a thick layer of silver volcanic ash, but even so, Wang Xu and they could still see the desperate and painful expressions on the faces of the corpses before they died.

Gradually, the painful corpses on the side of the road became more and more, and some of the corpses were also planted with a pointed tombstone next to them, and the names of the corpses were engraved on the tombstones, and it can be seen from the appearance of these tombstones that the people in the city of Virgo did not die after the volcanic eruption, but some people survived, and those who survived set up tombstones for their relatives who died in the catastrophe.

Soon, the number of tombstones on the road became more and more, and finally, the piles of tombstones, like the waves of the sea, led one after another to the dark depths beyond the reach of the light source.

After just a rough count, Wang Xu found that within the scope of his eyes, there were at least forty or fifty thousand tombstones of different sizes, shapes, and materials, and even, some of the tombstones were very shabby, that is, a dilapidated and rotten wooden board, and the wooden board was covered with a thick layer of volcanic ash, and in this way, the traces of dry cracks on the wooden board could still be seen.

After walking for another ten minutes, a series of crooked street lamps began to appear on the side of the road, all of which were made of bronze, and the reason why they showed a crooked appearance was because their bronze bases had already been burned into copper cakes by magma.

With the appearance of the crooked street lamps, another thing also appeared, that is, a huge bronze coffin.

All the bronze coffins with various floral patterns are artificially arranged into a large phalanx, and they are placed vertically, neatly arranged, and even more, all the bronze coffins are surrounded by a circle of calf-thick bronze chains, and at the interface of the chain, a steel lock with a large head is also hung.

Obviously, the reason why bronze chains and steel locks were added to the outside of the copper coffin was that he was afraid that people would open the museum and steal the corpse, Wang Xu knew better that the corpse after the disaster had only one use, that is, it was eaten as food.

At this time, the once shiny steel lock had been oxidized into a lump of rust, and only the golden bronze chain remained, still shining in the shimmer, silently telling the terrible story of what had happened in this dead city.

After approaching the bronze coffins, Wang Xu and the others saw that on the top of this piece of about four or five hundred neat and beautiful bronze coffins, there was a griffin pattern engraved, and it was obvious that these bronze coffins belonged to a noble family with a griffin as the family emblem.

And that family, in the natural disaster of the fall of Virgo, at least four or five hundred clansmen died, and the number of these bronze coffins is proof.

"This is the symbol of the royal family of the Griffin Kingdom!" Zana exclaimed in surprise after seeing the family emblem on the top of the bronze coffin.

"Oh......" After hearing Zana's revelations, Wang Xu pursed his lips and thought for a few seconds, and then asked Zhana in a low voice, "So, this city belongs to the griffin kingdom?"

"That's not necessarily," Zana sneered, and replied: "Now the royal family of the griffin kingdom started by rebellion, the griffin kingdom is not like the elven kingdom, which has existed for millions of years, it is a country that has only been established for less than five thousand years, and the dead city in front of us was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago, and at that time, there was no griffin kingdom!"

"Oh, I see, that is to say, it is a great achievement that a small nobleman of Virgo City actually established a new country after running from the Eastern Continent to the Western Continent......" Wang Xu glanced at the griffin emblem on the bronze coffin around him again in admiration.

A faint laughter of "ha, ha, ha......" suddenly permeated the surroundings of the copper coffin array, and then, "clucking......" There was a piercing sound of metal rubbing, and the lid of a copper coffin slowly opened a thin slit...... (To be continued.) )
