Chapter 260: Great Explorer, Mysterious Giant
"Huh!"
He jerked out his Nepalese saber, held it across his chest, and slowly pushed the door in.
The space behind the stone gate was small, barely enough for Li Ang to stand, supported by a row of stone pillars on each side.
Between the gaps between the stone pillars, some dried and rotten blood stains could be faintly seen, as well as scattered skeletons of Bai Morisen's skeletons.
"Shhh...... This is? ”
Li Ang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he gasped.
Not far from him, hundreds of skeletal skeletons lay horizontally, each with an obvious scar on its arms, legs, feet, and skull, in the shape of an "X".
The worst of all was a skeleton on the left, its head had been cut off, and only the right half of its body was leaning against the stone wall, and all the internal organs and organs of the abdominal cavity were flowing to the ground.
"These ...... Are all human? ”
Li Ang swallowed his saliva, feeling the strong breath of death rushing towards his face, and the goosebumps all over his body exploded, and he was terrified.
He cautiously took a step, moving forward, and finally came to the stone pillars.
There is a small groove here, inlaid between the stone pillars, forming a pit, and the surrounding area is covered with dust, but the traces of the original inlay are faintly visible.
In the center of the groove, there is a fist-sized golden oval crystal nucleus, which emits a brilliant light.
“…… Is this the 'crystal nucleus' I saw when I was looking up information on the Internet? ”
Li Ang's eyes widened, staring at the golden crystal nucleus, and his heart was terrified.
The diameter of this crystal nucleus is about five centimeters, and the surface is uneven, with some slender ridges criss-crossed, like metal.
Leon stretched out his finger and lightly poked the crystal nucleus, making a sound of gold and iron clashing.
"Hmm...... The purity of this crystal nucleus is very high, it should be no less than titanium alloy, and there are wonderful runes on the surface, which seem to contain some kind of law. ”
He looked at it for a long time, his eyes gradually blurred, and he fell into deep thought.
The quality of this crystal nucleus is very high, and it can be called a rare treasure, but Leon knows that the real thing is not this thing, but its owner.
That mysterious black-robed wizard!
Before the black-robed wizard disappeared, ancient sorcery was engraved on the surface of this golden crystal nucleus, giving it an infinite loop of magical effects - even in today's rapid development of earth technology, it is comparable to the effect of some top-level alchemy devices.
And such a golden crystal nucleus, the total amount of the only surviving is estimated to be pitiful, and it is almost impossible to obtain it.
Leon shook his head, put the crystal nucleus in his backpack, and continued to explore.
The whole cave is very narrow and winding, only a few meters in circumference, but the cave inside is very deep, and I don't know where it leads.
"Huh? What is it? ”
Leon spotted a mossy vine wrapped around a plant.
The veins of the plant are turquoise, and the branches are thick and powerful, with serrated spikes at the ends.
"Is it a plant?"
Leon bent down to pick up the plant, and when he looked closely, it was an olive-like plant, with a milky white fruit in the center of the leaf, as clear as jade, full of vitality.
"Huh?"
Li Ang smelled the smell and immediately felt refreshed.
"This scent resonates with the bees in the previous hive?"
Leon rolled his eyes, took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack, poured it on the fruit, and waited for a moment.
"Buzz ......"
The fruit shuddered violently, blooming in a soft light green halo, then slowly converging and gradually dimming.
Li Ang was dumbfounded: "This thing...... Do you really drink water on your own? ”
Although plants do not have any spirituality in themselves, their self-regulating system will restore them to their optimal state under the influence of food.
Leon tried to pick the fruit, but found that the vines were so tight that they couldn't be torn off no matter how they pulled them, and the scorching temperature on the surface of the vines seemed to be highly poisonous, and if he was not careful, he would burn himself.
“…… It's a little wicked. ”
Leon hesitated for a few seconds and threw the vine away.
He continued to walk deeper into the stone chamber, when suddenly, a picture appeared on the stone wall in front of him.
The picture is of a slate table with a clean silk cloth on it.
Next to the stone table was a clay pot containing some viscous liquid, emitting a reddish shimmer that faintly outlined the outline of a human figure.
“…… This is the black-robed wizard? ”
Li Ang was stunned.
In this slate painting, a man in tattered clothes sits on a stone bench, holding a wooden staff, pointing at the clay pot in the center of the table, his face pale and his lips trembling.
There is a crack in the lid of the clay pot, as if it can't hold something important, and it will burst at any moment.
The man's wrists trembled slightly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, desperately suppressing his emotions, as if trying to protect the contents of the clay pot.
Li Ang looked at it for a while, and a chill suddenly rose in his heart, and he hurriedly looked away.
The man in the picture scroll is himself!
"What's going on? Why did I see this person? And I saw it...... Future! ”
Leon frowned and whispered.
This image overlaps with the scene in his dream, the same stone table, clay pot, picture scroll, and future.
"Maybe it's because of the nightmare, so I have the illusion?"
Li Ang shook his head, abandoned distracting thoughts, and continued to walk forward, passing through the stone chamber, and suddenly the front of him suddenly opened up, and it turned out to be a large-scale karst cave.
In the center of the cave stands a behemoth!
It is nearly 20 meters tall and is made of black diamond, resembling a black iron tower.
It is 5 times the size of a normal building, covered in a thick, hard carapace, and has a hideous and ugly head with triangular horns and a pair of fleshy wings on either side of its neck.
In addition, the entire black iron behemoth did not have an inch of skin on its body, revealing rough and dark tendons, and the surface was covered with dense blood vessels and scars, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade.
The surface of its torso was covered with mottled scars, and there were even many scars that ran through its body, dripping with blood;
The black iron beast crouched in the center of the cave with its eyes closed, curling smoke coming out of its body, as if it was sleeping, but occasionally opened its eyes, its eyes were pitch black, flashing with strange and ferocious lightning.
Li Ang held his breath and slowly retreated to the side of the stone wall, an old sigh resounding in his mind: "...... Are you here? ”
The voice is long and long, with the vicissitudes of time, and it seems to hover in the ears.
"Who?" Li Ang instantly raised his vigilance, "You woke me up?" ”
Before he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew out of thin air in the stone room, and a light mist filled the dark and damp cave, obscuring Li Ang's vision.
Li Ang raised his eyes and found that in the hazy mist, a tall figure stood faintly.
It was a short and fat figure, with gray hair, wearing a simple and gorgeous robe, with a rickety figure and a decrepit appearance, and it was impossible to see the specific face.
"Who are you?" Leon said warily, "Where is this?" What are you waking me up for? ”
"This is my burial." The man spoke, his voice weak and hoarse, and he couldn't hear his age, "My body is buried here, and you are here to rob the tomb?" ”
