Chapter 57: The Mysterious Cave
It is an extremely spacious grotto, and the cave is so high that at first glance it is barely visible by the faint light of the fire.
As long as Tang Jie and Lilith spoke a little louder, they could hear a buzzing echo, constantly echoing, gradually weakening.
If they were still, they could still hear the whining of the wind coming clearly through the cave.
This shows that this is a ventilated cave, and having a way out means having a way out!
Tang Jie and Lilith, who found this, were ecstatic, Tang Jie laughed wildly, shouting like a madman: "I'm a genius, I'm definitely a super genius!!!wahahaha!!"
When Lilith first found out that she had escaped, she was also in ecstasy, but soon she unconsciously looked back at the entrance of the secret passage of the black hole, and remembered the cave depicting the magic array of Star Diroke, and suddenly felt a little lost in her heart.
Firsts, there are too many firsts.
Whether it is for women or men, the first time is always full of nostalgia and nostalgia.
Lilith unconsciously gently stroked her soft and warm lips with her slender fingers, where he had kissed heavily, although it was only to save her life, but her first kiss was gone, and all that was left was the warmth of the man she had imagined in her memory.
Although Tang Jie was very rough and domineering at the time, in Lilith's retrospect, she forgot about his rudeness and only remembered his gentleness and amiability.
After escaping from that cave, will I still be with him in the future?
If I wanted to follow him, would he dislike Lilith?
Does it feel like Lilith has hurt him with magic before and holds a grudge?
No, he wouldn't be like that.
But Lilith did hurt him.
Yes, Lilith is a simple and naΓ―ve girl.
But what girl in this world is really ignorant of love and has no acuity at all?
If a girl is always not interested in boys, it means that the boy who can make her heart flutter and make her panic has not yet appeared.
What Lilith herself didn't expect was that her bold outing not only allowed her to see the vast world outside, but also allowed her to meet a young man with black hair who made her cry and laugh.
Lilith bit her lip slightly, she stood quietly not far from Tang Jie, lowering her head from time to time to kick the stone with her toes.
After leaving the desperate situation, people's minds unconsciously became active, and even the naΓ―ve Lilith couldn't help but start thinking cranky, suffering from gains and losses.
But Tang Jie was very rough at this time, he didn't notice Lilith's little daughter's demeanor, he suddenly found something, and beckoned to Lilith: "Hey, Lilith, come and see!"
After a tribulation between the two people, the distance between them had already narrowed a lot, and Lilith heard Tang Jie calling her, and she was overjoyed and ran over.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" asked Lilith curiously.
Tang Jie pointed to a circular stone cave on the ground, he touched it with his hand, felt that it was quite sticky, and pointed to a small groove in the stone cave: "Look at this stone cave, this channel carved out here extends from here to the top wall, and then there are many channels following this channel, spreading in all directions, it's strange, is this a mechanism?"
How can Lilith understand this? Tang Jie asked her that it was purely a matter of fate for a fish, and of course she said what Tang Jie said, she followed what she said, and only replied resignedly: "You said it was an organ, then it must be an organ." β
Tang Jie glanced at her and asked tentatively, "I guess this is a ignition mechanism, can you try it?"
After speaking, before Lilith nodded, he had already run away from the distance, Tang Jie waved his arm: "Lilith, try it with your magic!"
Tang Jie was scared of Lilith, this girl tossed him from time to time, which was really a headache.
The most depressing thing is that she is indeed unintentional, and every time it is the result of carelessness, but it is this kind of unintentional mistake that makes Tang Jie angry and powerful, which is really unbearable.
Lilith is full of gains and losses at this time, confused, where do you think so much?
Tang Jie asked her to light a fire, so she lit a fire and threw it towards the stone cave.
I saw a "whew", the stone cave suddenly ignited, and then the stone trough connected to the stone cave also burned, and continued to stretch along the direction of the extension of the stone trough, and gradually the whole cave was illuminated by this burning flame.
Tang Jie opened his mouth and looked at the huge stone cave, looking at the flames that continued to expand around him, he soon found that this flame had swam around the surrounding walls for a while, and then countless flames converged into a flame again, running towards the stone cave in another opposite direction.
Tang Jie happened to be in the direction where the flames passed, he was startled, and was about to take a small leap back to avoid the flames, but suddenly, Lilith shouted loudly: "Forward, don't go backward!!"
Tang Jie was shocked, he couldn't imagine what Lilith had discovered and actually spoke to him in such a tone.
Fortunately, Tang Jie reacted quickly, and immediately hit his heels, and his body jumped forward, just avoiding the flames.
As soon as he stood still, he looked at Lilith in confusion, "What happened just now?"
Lilith didn't look at him, just widened her eyes and trembled as she looked at a milky white giant sphere with a diameter of about ten meters hanging not far from Tang Jie's side.
Tang Jie followed her gaze and was suddenly startled, even he didn't know that there was such a big giant sphere hanging behind him just now.
The sphere appears to be a living thing, shaped like a human gall, covered in a slimy omentum, and when you get closer, you can see the water flowing beneath it.
"What is this?" Tang Jie unconsciously stretched out his hand, curiously wanting to touch it.
"Don't touch it!!" Lilith's tone was fierce like never before, and she threw out a magic spell without thinking about it, smashing it into Tang Jie's hand!
Tang Jie was startled, hurriedly withdrew his hand, and glared at her: "Are you crazy?"
Lilith's face turned pale, and she glared back at him without showing weakness, "You're crazy! Do you know what this is?"
Tang Jie thought unhappily, how long the fuck have I only been crossing, how do I know what the hell this is that makes you so scary?
Lilith ignored him anymore, she turned her head, stretched out her hand slightly, tremblingly pointed at the hanging giant milky white orb, and swallowed: "This is the most terrifying magical beast created by the Angel Alliance in the distant god war, Yake Barba!"
Hmm, the distant god war, the League of Angels, the most terrifying monster?
Tang Jie listened to this series of bluffing terms, and his face was disapproving.
Lilith looked at Jacques Barba in front of her with a terrified expression, she trembled, and said in a trembling voice, "You must have heard the story of the battle between Raphael, the god of the sky, and Tira, the god of the earth and Gaia, the god of the sea, right?"
Tang Jie was stunned for a moment, remembering the legendary story about the captain that Nia told him, he nodded: "I've heard of it, what's wrong?"
Lilith swallowed, although their time was tens of thousands of years before the end of the Divine War, she was still full of fear and panic when she saw this ancient magical beast for the first time, which was only recorded in the forbidden scriptures of the ancient magic calendar.
"At that time, the dragons, giants, elves and winged humans created by Raphael, the god of the sky, formed an alliance of angels to fight fiercely against the combined forces of Gaia, the god of the earth, and Tira, the god of the sea, the creators of the humans, dwarves, orcs, sea fish, sea dragons and Naga. At the beginning of the Angelic Alliance's success, the combined forces of Tira, the god of the sea, and Gaia, the god of the earth, were crushed. This is because the races in the Angel Alliance, whether they are dragons, giants, elves or winged people, are all proficient in magic and fighting energy, while in the alliance between the sea god Tira and Gaia, only the Naga are a higher race that understands magic and fighting energy. Therefore, the strength of the two sides is extremely unequal. β
"But later, humans used their clever minds, cunning words and flexible tongues to move the Naga to teach them magic and fighting spirit, and in the long divine war, the humans, orcs and dwarves who learned magic and fighting spirit grew at an astonishing rate, and they turned the tide of the war little by little with their huge population base and strong reproductive ability. β
"As the war progresses, various heroes from the Terrans, Orcs, and other races continue to emerge, and these heroes lead their races to launch a ferocious counterattack against the Angel Alliance. β
Lilith muttered, her voice echoing through the empty cavern, as if from the distant shore of history: "The proud alliance of angels is too powerful to be beaten, but their numbers are too small, and their ability to reproduce is far inferior to that of humans and orcs. When a human loses a hero, another hero immediately stands out and replaces him. But if the Angel Alliance dies a dragon, there will be one less dragon, and if one giant dies, there will be one less giant. β
"Under the indifferent gaze of the god of time, the angelic alliance finally had a large-scale rout, and this rout doomed their defeat to be almost a foregone conclusion, irreversible! But at this time, the dragon king Shut Logan, the giant king Arthur Moore, the elven king Eve Girovia, and the winged king Skye Robster, the kings of the four races, feared the punishment of the god of the sky, Raphael, and secretly concluded a dark agreement in order to turn the tide of the war. β
"What agreement?" Tang Jie couldn't help but ask.
"The Dragonlord has donated their most precious dragon blood, the Giant King has given their hardest skin, the Elven King has given their most cherished hands, and the Winged Humans have given their most precious wings. The four kings used these sacrifices to create a monster that had never been seen before, and this was Ark Barba!"
"How powerful is this monster?" Tang Jie asked curiously.
Lilith looked at the quietly squirming Barba in front of her with a pale face, and she said: "I don't know how powerful Barba is, I only know that when I was looking through the forbidden books of the ancient magic calendar in the Forbidden Tower of the Wizards' Guild, it once recorded the number of creatures killed by Ark Barba. β
"How much?" Tang Jie asked.
Lilith stammered, "Thirteen million four hundred and forty thousand...... Nearly two-thirds of the entire coalition forces!"
Tang Jie gasped, and when he looked at this egg-like giant ** white hanging egg, his eyes were already filled with fear.
The coalition of humans, orcs and other races beat the powerful angelic alliance to the ground, but they were killed by this egg-like demonic beast Barba, of course Tang Jie knew what it meant......
"This guy, is so terrifying, how did it kill so many people?" Tang Jie looked up and down at the terrifying demonic beast in front of him.
Lilith swallowed, "Remember when I just told you to jump forward, don't jump backwards?".
Tang Jie nodded: "Of course!"
"The nature of Barba is that when it doesn't come into contact with living things, it doesn't have any lethal power. It itself is a creature with strong parasitic ability, it is not afraid of magic, not afraid of swords, not afraid of fighting spirit, as long as there is air, it is almost not afraid of any attack in this world, as long as it comes into contact with living creatures, then it will occupy the **** of this living creature little by little, turning him into its own host. β
"And the most terrible thing is that the person who is parasitized by Barba, as long as the Barba in his body comes into contact with another person, the other person will also become the host of Barba, and the infection will continue to spread like a plague!"
Because of this, the Angels have the Magic Flute that can control Barba, and when they drop Barba's giant egg from the sky, the hellish disaster on the ground begins...... The allied forces of Tira, the god of the sea, and Gaia, the god of the earth, are in unprecedented chaos and fighting each other, and more and more people are infected with Barba, and these infected hosts, manipulated by the magic flute, raise their butcher's knives against their former compatriots!"
Tang Jie was startled, and unconsciously moved away from Barba, he looked at Barba's slimy appearance mucous membranes, only to feel hairy and frightened!
"Then how did this Barba get rid of in the end?" Tang Jie also swallowed.
Lilith said, "Barba is almost without weaknesses, but only almost. Its only weakness is that it must rely on oxygen to survive. So, it can be burned by fire!"
Tang Jie was surprised in his heart: Didn't you say that Barba was not afraid of magic?
But he thought about it, slapped his face, and said loudly: "I understand, fire can burn the air around Barba and suffocate it alive!"
"Yes, that's it!!" Lilith nodded, a sad look on her face.
"When the human coalition discovered Barba's weakness, they were so badly damaged that many of them had to burn their friends, brothers, and sisters at the stake and burn them with their own hands in order to completely eliminate Barba......"
Tang Jie only felt a chill on his back: "Didn't you say that they were all wiped out, then why is there still Barba here?"
Lilith looked Barba up and down carefully, she shook her head slowly: "Lilith doesn't know, looking at this, it seems that someone sent this Barba to this place to be preserved, what is this person thinking, Lilith can't guess......"
After Lilith said this, she gently tugged Tang Jie's arm and said softly: "Don, let's go quickly, standing in front of Barba, Lilith feels very scared......"
Tang Jie thought that if he hadn't listened to Lilith just now, he jumped backwards, and if he happened to touch Barba, the consequences would be ......
He feels creepy when he thinks about it himself!
Tang Jie nodded: "This place is really full of evil spirits, I don't know which bastard brought Barba to this place!"
Both of them felt hairy in their hearts, and walked outside one after the other along the direction of the extension of the stone cave and the direction of the wind.
Out of this huge stone cave, the cave seemed to suddenly become a bottleneck of the neck, and the passages around it became narrow and short, just enough for four people to walk side by side.
The flames of the stone trough continued along the way, illuminating the cave so brightly that even the dark green moss on the walls was visible.
After walking for about ten minutes, Tang Jie suddenly felt that his eyes suddenly lit up, and a grotto that was even bigger than just now suddenly appeared in front of him.
The sea breeze in this grotto, about forty or fifty meters high, surrounded by many melted stones, arranged in all directions like a hill, at the end of the cave is the blue sea, the waves crash on the shore, making a roaring wave.
On the shore, there is an artificial pier built by man, and on the shore of the pier there is a huge sunken stone pit, in which stands a huge black circle with a diameter of about forty meters...... Egg.
This huge black round egg occupies almost half of the space of this huge grotto, and standing at the bottom of it, I only feel that people are as small as people!
The dome had a hard, black shell covered with long, stiff black whiskers, and a surprisingly small diamond-shaped jack near the ground.
With Barba's case in front of him, this time Tang Jie didn't dare to touch this black giant egg, he turned around and asked Lilith with palpitations, "What is this?"
The expression on Lilith's face was even more shocking than when she saw Barba before!
Her eyes widened, her whole body trembled violently, her voice trembled, her hands trembled and raised slowly, pointed to this towering black dome, and said three words: "Black ...... Dragon...... King!"
