Chapter 279: Breakthrough (I)
Rex was stunned, this mountain will give birth to gods?
Thirty-six thousand years seems like a long time. But the history of human disappearance is more than 30,000 years. No one knows exactly when this mountain was migrated by humans, if ......
"Isn't there a date on the stele?" Rex knew a few of the divine texts that she couldn't read, so she had to ask Salin.
"No, it seems that the original people didn't have the concept of age at all. The Kuthra dynasty is also older than we think. Their calendar is calculated according to the trajectory of the stars. Contrary to our approach, I only know that this mountain must have stood here for more than 30,000 years. ”
"If there are gods, there will be many new species at the same time. Rex said abruptly.
"Along the way, we didn't see any powerful creatures. ”
"This land...... There will be many new species that will appear, this is the ...... of the goddess The world of the goddess. She's going to create a new world. ”
"But why didn't she leave her faith? There should be strong believers who survived!"
"The new goddess is not the original Myers. ”
Saleen and Rex answered each other sentence by sentence, and some questions gradually became clear.
"The death of two mages is just the beginning, if we don't go back soon, the people below will be in danger. Salin didn't hesitate any longer and said, "Then, let's not save the scroll either." How many advanced scrolls do you have, plus mine, and destroy the dwarfs as soon as possible. In three days, we will return.
Rex and Salin weren't accurate, but they were right. The goddess once had two oracles left, and these two people didn't know what means the goddess had left behind, but they just lived on the periphery of the temple, waiting lonely. But the power of these two divine envoys made all the lives in the goddess space fearful, and even these gods who had not woken up did not dare to blatantly enhance their strength.
The two divine envoys left for a very short time, but these gods, who had not yet awakened, began to create some new species to occupy this space. Parasites are just one of them. If the oracle is still there, it will be destroyed as soon as it appears.
Rex and Salin selected the seventh-level magic scroll and began a simple kill. Rex died two fifth-level mages, and her heart was naturally impatient, knowing that gods would be born here, which made her even more restless. The birth of a god is an extremely long process, but before that, some creatures will gradually appear in this space, and these creatures will become more and more powerful, and the strongest can even become demigods.
These creatures will protect the birthplace of the gods and provide food for the gods who will be born. What do the gods want? soul and faith!
It took another two days for the underground palace to be cleared, and Rex and Salin used up the group attack advanced scrolls they had with them, and all they had left in their hands was the single attack magic scroll. The five men began their search in the underground palace. Prepare to leave.
The area of the underground palace is somewhat larger than that above ground, and it is two-storey. There are no altars in the underground palaces, there are no places for believers to live, only warehouses, warehouses, warehouses......
Salin and Rex found a lot of grain, but it was only a scrap compared to the huge warehouse. The weapon warehouse was destroyed by the dwarves, and everything that could be eaten by the dwarves was eaten, including the demons, animal skins, magic cores, and medicinal herbs. Many of the chests in the warehouse, which themselves can keep food in place for countless years, have also been eaten by dwarves.
In addition to metal, stone, and a few poisonous things, the dwarves have turned the underground palace into a garbage dump.
Bones and feces that had been accumulated for an unknown number of years, as well as a mess of armor and weapons made by the dwarves themselves, were everywhere. Salin and the others patiently probed everywhere, killed all the surviving dwarves, and took away everything they could eat. Which dwarf bones are included.
In the end, Rex sealed the exit with a seventh-level magic scroll, and there was nothing to eat below anyway, and even if a few dwarf demons survived, it would be impossible to reproduce any more. This sixteen-meter-deep cave is blocked by elemental rocks, and if you want to dig out the exit, you need at least tens of thousands of dwarves to dig it in turn.
After hastily disposing of the underground palace, Salin and Rex and the others left the temple and rushed down the mountain.
It was much easier to fly downward, and the speed was twice as fast, and in more than a month, Salin and the others flew outside the camp.
The camp was in shambles, and it was unknown what creatures had besieged it. The metal fence outside has been repaired countless times, the barracks inside the camp have also been reinforced with many layers of metal materials, and the four arrow towers are almost completely enclosed against the mountain.
A hole was opened in one of the arrow towers, revealing Nellis's face, and she shouted from afar: "Master, come in, it's getting dark!"
The magic trap in front of the camp immediately lit up, and a sign of safety appeared.
Salin said hello to Rex and went back to his barracks first. In the barracks, Zola was alone guarding Eleno, who was lying on the bed, apparently wounded.
Seeing Saleen coming in, Elenor smiled and said, "I know you're not dead, I've run out of magic liquid." ”
Salin immediately took out the liquid and poured it on Elena. Shika asked, "What about the others?"
"The demons have gone to help Rex's swordsman. Sue is assisting Neris in guarding the Arrow Tower. Zola replied.
"Well done, Elenor, tell me, who attacked you?"
"It's a magical beast that looks like an ape, it's not big, it can use magic to attack, and it's quite fast. ”
"You don't know?"
"I don't know, not even in the illustrated book. Elenor replied. Salin knew that Elenor knew more monsters than he did, after all, this elf was much older than him. In addition to the fact that the speed of magic advancement is not as fast as his, the accumulation of knowledge is deeper than his. If Elenno doesn't know it, it's likely to be a new species.
"Is there a leader?"
"It doesn't seem like it, but these monsters can use simple weapons, and they should have language. ”
"Why don't you leave?"
Elenor smiled bitterly, "Rex's people won't go down the mountain, and the hillside is easier to defend than the flat ground. ”
"Understood, Trace, you go and replace Neris and let her come to me. ”
Tris nodded and left the barracks, and Nellis saw Saleen and pounced. hugged Salin and said, "Master, it's good that you're not dead." ”
Salin couldn't cry and laughed, and said, "Don't make trouble, if I die, you will be the first to know." Say, what's going on?"
Neris then told about the fact that she had sent Lola to follow two magicians and obtain specimens of parasites, and she told her about the theological knowledge she had received from Ismael, and her own inferences.
"You say, those demonic beasts will only attack at night?"
"Nope. At the beginning, there were demonic beasts harassing the camp during the day, and they were hit badly by Rex's mages, and those demonic beasts all attacked at night. Nellis replied.
"Elennor, your hurt ......"
"I just used my magic too often and didn't get a break, and I was completely well in a day or two. Elenor drank the potion, and her face looked much better. She comforted Salin and did not hide her physical condition.
"Zola, go to Rex and ask her to come and talk to me about how to leave. ”
Rex soon arrived at Sarin's barracks, where the magician on her side memorized the battle with crystals, and knew more about the monsters attacking the camp. Naris did not compete with Rex's people for the results of the battle, and all the monster corpses were disposed of by Rex's warriors.
Rex brought an intermediate magic core, and these demonic beasts that attacked the camp turned out to be creatures above level four.
A single fourth-level creature is nothing, and if it is in a group, it is very troublesome. No wonder even Neris refused to leave the camp, agreeing to stay here. The camp is as strong as a small fortress, with an alchemy crossbow and ten swordsmen taking turns guarding the main gate, and it is basically impossible to sneak attack.
However, the flesh of these monsters is poisonous, and the food left behind by Rex is about to be eaten, and if Rex doesn't come back, the people here will take the risk of climbing up and going to find Rex together.
Saleen listened solemnly as Rex and her magicians recounted the battle that had taken place, thinking to herself that it was clear that she had not told Rex about the food she had asked Neris to carry. If you say it yourself, it will cause misunderstanding. It seems that you have to have a good talk with Nerice, you can't give everything to Rex's people, but you can't sit back and watch them be in danger.
"County Lord, I think this way, the attacks of the demonic beasts are not frequent, and you can take turns to rest during the day. We'll rest here for two days, repair all the armor and equipment, and then break out and leave. Of course, Salin was thinking about Elena's injury. There was such a magician beside him. Others are very spiritual, especially those demons.
In the Demon Plane, once a battle occurs, it will either end quickly, or it will last for several months. The demons have long been accustomed to such a life.
"Okay, stay here, I'll let Neris's men come back and help you. Rex didn't say much, the spirit snake armor on the swordsmen under her command really needs to be overhauled, the weapons of the warriors are seriously damaged, and the space equipment on those magicians is too small to carry many materials, and can only supplement the consumption of the magic core.
There are still a few days to go from here to the desert, and I am afraid that I will face danger along the way, so I must be well prepared before leaving.
Saleen took the engram and watched Rex leave, before glaring at Neris and asking, "Why don't you help Rex's people, you have food and water." ”
"They suspect that I killed those two magicians, and if they have enough food, they may be able to attack me. Nellis quibbled. Although what she said made sense, Rex's people considered the relationship between Saleen and Rex, and it was basically impossible to do it while Rex was away.
Saleen snorted, the demons had returned. Seeing the tattered armor on the demons, Salin knew that the battle was indeed hard, and instead of continuing to teach Neris a lesson, he asked the demons to take off their armor and begin to repair their equipment.
