1508. The Stone of the World
The corridor is not long, there are eight walls between the nine marble columns, and the frescoes are well preserved, except for half of the collapsed walls.
Delia walked beside Surdak and continued to tell him about the frescoes that followed.
In the sixth painting, the first Nephilim was born in the Land of Refuge, possessing the blood of angels and demons, and thus possessing both light and dark powers.
The seventh painting shows the black mages summoning demons, and the place of refuge is discovered by the demons of the hellish world, and the demons want to open a passage into the human world.
The eighth painting shows the quiet rise of the Tritheistic Religion on that continent, and in order to resist the Tritheistic Cult, a prophet founded the Basilica of the Holy Light, which was built during this period.
At this end of the mural, Surdak stood in front of the sixth mural and was speechless for a long time.
It is this mural that explains the origin of the blood of the Nephitens.
Surdak discovered that the original Warsaw plane may have been part of a main plane, and then after the world fell apart, the ruined world that was lucky enough to survive became a small plane.
Most of the walls behind the cloister have collapsed, so that the back part of the main hall is extremely empty, and there is no cover overhead, although there are still high walls, but the dilapidation is still the main color of the temple.
Delia didn't go any further, as the church inside was nothing but piles of rubble and countless collapsed pillars and statues.
This cloister seems to be the best-preserved in the area, presumably because the walls are supported by a row of stone columns, and the stone blocks from the collapsed roof of the temple have not hit this cloister.
Delia sat cross-legged under the wall and meditated like a magician.
The aura of holy light here was strong, and there was a faint holy glow on her face.
"You're the Templar of this generation?"
After Surdak entered this area, he found that the dozen or so most secret nodes in his original body had not been lit up by himself anyway, and just now when he entered this temple, all of them were lit up.
Those nodes formed a vast starry sky, a star field hidden in his body, and these nodes could draw the power of light from around his body.
This is how the power of the Holy Light in Surdak's body is obtained, and every time he exhausts the power of the Holy Light, the nodes in his body will continuously draw the power of the Holy Light from the outside, knowing that the power of the Holy Light in his body is full.
Delia sat on the ground, opened her amber eyes, looked up at Surdak, and said to him:
"Elder Ambrobie told me that our tribe of the Aigrod Clan is the guardian of this temple, but this place is ruined, so that all the clansmen do not know the secrets here."
"There are so many people in your Agrodi tribe, haven't you tried to repair this place?"
"How could it not be, but in the process of repair, the damage is more rapid. It is said that before the renovation, the main hall of the main hall still existed, and there were even two confessional rooms in the back, but now all the main rooms are in ruins. ”
Delia said with a wry smile.
She picked up a broken statue arm, and Surdak could feel the floor of the temple tremble slightly, and when she put the stone arm down, the temple was miraculously restored to peace.
"Let's hide here and wait until we're healthy before we go out, maybe the demon leader is gone."
Surdak was eager to go out and see if the Headless Horseman was gone, and after entering the Temple, his connection with Aphrodite was severed.
The rich holy light here not only made his holy light technique unprecedentedly powerful, but even the recent impact on the Spiritual Consciousness Sea was being quickly repaired, and he even had an intuition that he could put on the magical battle armor in the Spirit Sea in the temple without time restrictions, so he simply sat down.
It felt like an empty bottle floating in the endless void, and there were countless connected nodes floating in the bottle, and the rich power of holy light emitted a faint light in these nodes, making him look like a large light bulb of two kilowatts.
He even felt the nodes behind him come together, like two folded wings......
'So there were angels and demons among my fathers?' ’
At this time, Surdak couldn't concentrate, and could only think wildly in his heart.
Unable to bring himself into a meditative state, Surdak opened his eyes.
I happened to see Delia on the side checking the injury at the collarbone of her left shoulder with a strange face.
She knew that the collarbone was broken, but she didn't pay much attention to when the injury healed, and it was said that even with the blessing of Wu Dixian, the injury should not heal so quickly.
"Do all the young people in your tribe have the power of Nephilim's bloodline?" Surdak asked curiously.
Delia shook her head and said calmly:
"Not all of them will be able to obtain the Nephilim bloodline, only a few young people, and the Great Witches will need to choose their successors from among these people, and they will become the next Great Witches. The remaining young people will be trained by the tribe and will usually become warriors in the tribe. ”
Surdak nodded and continued: "I know that the warriors in your tribe are equivalent to the second-turn powerhouses on our empire's side, so what about the warriors above yours, what is your side called?" ”
"The awakening of the power in the body will make you a tribal warrior, and only through rigorous cultivation can you become a supreme venerable."
After speaking, Arya stood up from the stone slab, picked up a random stone and threw it, which immediately caused the temple to shake slightly.
Delia didn't say that Elder Ambrobie decided that she would be the one of the Agrodes clan's generation with the best chance of becoming a Venerable, but there was a hint of pride in her eyes.
Surdak patted his forehead, feeling that his brain was all confused, and he still had some doubts in his heart about the question of the origin of life.
So he told Delia what he knew about the history:
"I don't know much about the history described here, it's a completely different story recorded in the library of the Grimm Empire, and the history I know is: thousands of years ago, humans, elves, orcs, dwarves and some other races lived on the Roland continent, and there may be dragons, angels and titans, sorry I'm not a historian, and these details are not clear."
"However, with the first invasion of the Roland Continent by the demons, various races began to resist these demons alone, and then everyone united to form a powerful alliance army, and at that time, the alliance army even had the Dragon Knight Legion, the Angel Legion and the Titan Legion."
"After the alliance army defeated the demons, it fought for a long time......"
Surdak paused after speaking, and saw that Arya was listening carefully before continuing:
"During this period, most of the dragons chose to leave the Roland Continent, they went to a plane that no one could find, and sealed all the planes' doors."
"The angel has returned to the Silver City, and has been fighting the coalition against the demons who have invaded from the hellish world."
"The goblins were cursed by the gods because of their blasphemy, and the entire goblin civilization ceased to exist, and the Titans they created were annihilated under the dust of this history."
"The Grimm Empire is only eight hundred years old, and it is said that the Grimm Empire was founded by five heroes......"
Surdak said a lot, Delia is just a native of the Warsaw plane, and naturally does not know the history of the Roland continent.
Out of respect for the temple and as the guardian of the temple, she reluctantly explained to Surdak: "I guess the history of this temple is a little bit older. ”
"Anything further?" Surdak scratched his head.
"Hmm!"
Delia said.
Then the two of them tacitly agreed not to discuss these anymore.
At this time, Surdak looked around, and happened to see that there was a very high stone mound in the depths of the main hall, which seemed to have collapsed for a long time, and some of the moss grew and died in some stone crevices, as if covered with a layer of earth.
Surdak felt that the aura of holy light over there was even stronger, so he asked casually:
"What's over there?"
Delia glanced at it before saying, "There is the deepest part of the temple, and there is a stone platform on it, but no one can climb to the top, and I have tried, and at most I can climb to the top of the stone platform, and I have never seen anything on the platform." ”
Surdak was a little curious, so he walked towards the stone moire, there were stones scattered everywhere due to the collapse, and it was not too difficult for Surdak to climb up on those huge stones, just watch your feet, and don't twist your feet because of reaching into the cracks in the stones.
However, the moss on these rocks has dried up, and there will always be a layer of ash flying up when you step on it.
Delia followed Surdak and told him that every Templar Guardian would try to climb the stone mound once, but the higher they climbed, the more difficult it became.
This stone mound is actually less than 30 meters high.
By the time Delia was halfway up, her face looked flushed, and she could see that she seemed to be inexplicably resisted, and it became difficult to go any further.
However, Surdak didn't feel anything, and kept climbing up at a constant speed.
Seeing Surdak constantly distancing himself from him, the look of surprise in Delia's eyes became more and more obvious.
There was obviously a force that resisted her body and kept her out.
Now she was injured, and it was hard to climb up again halfway up.
Looking at Surdak again, he had unconsciously climbed to the top of the stone mill, Surdak hesitantly glanced back at Delia, and saw that Delia cast an encouraging look, and walked to the stone platform.
Surdak stood on the stone platform and found that he could see most of the ruins of the temple from here.
The high platform here should have existed originally, but a large number of stones collapsed from the top of the temple to bury the stone steps here, and the area of this high platform is not too large, only less than 100 square meters.
The surface of the stone platform has weathered and shattered and become uneven, Surdak found that the stone platform should be a pentagonal shape, and there should be statues at each corner, but now there are only three places where the base of the statue can be seen in the rubble, and the part above the lower leg of the statue does not know where it has rolled down.
In front of one of the statues, which still have two feet, there is a one-meter circular platform carved out of marble, on which a stone basin is placed.
Because the weathering was so severe, Surdak couldn't tell whether it was a basin or any other vessel that contained water, and what surprised Surdak the most was that it was actually full of water.
Even above the water, there was a half-thumb-sized shard of hedron floating, and it was it that was constantly emitting a power of holy light that was so dense that it was almost substantial.
Those holy lights were so dense that they were constantly squeezing into Surdak's body, and the nodes in his body became brighter and brighter under the infusion of rich holy light.
Just as the countless nodes in his body emitted a piercing light, his body actually began to become transparent.
Those holy lights seemed to be washing, purifying, and dispelling the last bit of dark aura in his body, and he approached the stone basin step by step, his eyes fixed on the spar that constantly emitted the power of holy light.
Surdak thought that the spar, which was only the size of a fingernail, was most likely the 'source of the Light' or something.
He stood in front of the stone basin and reached out to hold the spar in the palm of his hand.
The hedron was like a transparent ice crystal, and the next second it disappeared in the palm of Surdak's hand, as if it had melted into water and evaporated in an instant.
Surdak even looked at his right hand with some confusion.
At the same time, the shard fragment appeared in his spiritual consciousness.
And this spar fragment in the Sea of Spiritual Consciousness was much larger than what he saw outside, several meters high, more like an obelisk suspended in the center of the Sea of Spiritual Consciousness.
A glimmer of the power of the laws of the world emanated from this stone tablet, and Surdak felt as if his head had been slammed by a craftsman's hammer after only touching it, and then he came to his senses.
Although he had a splitting headache, the scene in front of him really scared him.
The whole temple trembled violently.
'Boom'
Just a few hundred meters to his left, a wall at the edge of the temple that was more than seventy feet high suddenly collapsed, and a large number of scattered stones rolled down the mountain.
The entire temple began to crumble, and huge tremors came from beneath his feet, and Surdak was even a little unsteady on his feet.
At this time, the rich aura of holy light on this stone platform no longer existed, and Delia ran up from below with a panicked face, she first glanced around, and found Surdak standing in front of the stone basin, and hurriedly shouted to him:
"This place is going to collapse soon, let's get out of here quickly......"
Surdak had also come to his senses, and hurriedly followed Delia down from the stone platform.
She looked at the crumbling temple, from the initial sluggishness, to the later panic, and now she had calmed down, and then remembered some of the words that Elder Ambrobee had said.
When he turned his head to look at Surdak again, he looked strange, but he didn't say anything.
Surdak thought that she was blaming herself for touching something in the temple that shouldn't have been touched, causing the whole temple to begin to collapse, and she felt a little sorry in her heart.
He was still thinking about saying something sorry, but Delia was running so fast that he didn't have a chance to say anything, so he could only run out after her.
This part of Moyunling's content is actually the beginning of the all-race war after the birth of the three heroes, at that time, there was Jijia to conquer the ice and snow tundra of the barbarian tribe or something, and now Moyunling has come out in advance, and the power system has also come out in advance, hey, it's really a bit unbearable here. The content is completely out of line
