Chapter 247: Withered Flowers
"I really didn't expect him to talk to the beast, and he still has a sense of accomplishment." Among the few people watching Simon fight from a distance, Jason complained.
"If the wolf was a desperate villain, this scene would be much more appropriate." Arka chimed in.
Because Simon was really chattering there, and they couldn't hear what Simon was talking about?
But the four sentry machines did keep the wolf on the lookout, preventing it from escaping.
"But if you look at it this way, Simon is more like a villain."
Matresa said silently.
Simon's laughter followed.
Hear the laughter.
It seems to be right, too.
"There are three more that seem to want to come over and intervene, do you want to solve it?"
Jason suddenly raised his gun and pointed it at the three giant wolves that were still hiding in the jungle in the distance, and asked.
"Shoot them away twice, they don't dare come again, their souls are full of fear." Julia said silently.
"Okay, listen to you."
Naturally, there is no need to refuse a small request from a companion.
Jason raised his gun twice, and two projectiles flew out, hitting two pits in the mud where the wolves were hiding.
Sand and gravel splashed, with a roar of fear.
Three wolves escaped in the jungle.
At this time, Simon also walked over to everyone.
Two droplets, flying out, landed on his face and calves.
The scars on the face and the wounds on the legs disappeared immediately, and the recovery was as usual.
These are simple injuries that can be treated in an instant.
"Thank you." Simon said with a smile to Matrice.
"No, you don't."
Arka looked at what Simon was carrying and asked strangely, "What are you doing with it?" You don't want to be a hunter, do you? ”
"What is a hunter? I just think this wolf is interesting, study it, and you'll know when the time comes. Simon crouched down and patted the giant wolf next to him, who had been firmly bound.
"Evil woo woo!" The giant wolf who was slapped on the head let out an angry roar.
However, its mouth and limbs were now firmly bound by metal, and it could do nothing.
And Simon has already made the sentry robots start breaking down the materials of those giant wolves.
I didn't expect him to add this kind of feature as well.
"Alright, whatever you want, let's go see the ruins first."
As he spoke, the crowd came to the ruins not far away.
Looking at the protruding part of the ruins, this protruding part is very conspicuous, at least eight or nine meters high, and it is well preserved, only half of the place is collapsed.
However, it can also be seen that this seems to be the top of some kind of building.
"It's still the old rules, everyone is familiar with it, let's get to work."
After saying that, everyone divided their labor and cooperated.
The first is the detection of Xia Daiti.
"This ruin...... The preservation is not bad, although it has collapsed by more than half, but the area is quite large, and it is still very high. ”
As he spoke, he marked the ground, and as he did, the crowd began to dig.
"If we dig like this, we won't meet those strangers from yesterday, right?" Xia Daiti suddenly asked.
Alka, who was digging in the soil, raised his head and waved his hand when he heard this.
"Don't worry, they're still far away."
"What did you do with such confidence?"
Xia Daiti asked curiously.
With such confidence, Arka must have done something to those strangers in a place they didn't know.
"I marked their dreams, and the usage I discovered some time ago allowed me to sense the distance between me and them."
Previously, Arka marked those dream bubbles or dream creatures in the dream world, so that the next time he entered the dream world, he didn't have to look for another way to locate them.
Later, after the person he marked awakens from his dream, Arka only discovers when they meet during the day.
He was able to feel the marks he had made in his dreams even when he wasn't dreaming during the day.
It's just that compared to dreams, you can sense it at a distance, and see the situation around the mark.
In reality, such a sense is very vague, except when the distance is relatively close.
Otherwise, you can't feel it at all.
After many speculations and experiments.
The marker allows Alka to begin to perceive the distance of the marked person within a range of 2 km.
It's very vague and vague, but if you really pay attention, you won't feel it.
The closer you go, the more noticeable it becomes.
And Arka, too, had already marked everyone in the group of strangers last night.
After listening to Alka's explanation, Xia Daiti nodded: "You are really thoughtful. ”
The excavation is proceeding in an orderly manner.
"Am I wrong? Why did you dig up the bones? Jason asked, confused, looking at the area he had dug up and what he had dug up.
His voice also attracted everyone present to come and check.
Among them is the Arka.
Looking at the bones that were dug up by Jason, there was no golden object next to the bones.
Isn't it this skeleton?
"Why are there bones? Speaking of which, it's strange that we didn't dig up a single corpse after digging up so many ruins before. Xia Daiti looked at the corpse, squatted beside him, and said suspiciously.
"Let's dig it all out and see."
Arka said as he looked at the bones that were almost completely buried in the earth.
Several people dug up the bones completely, and then took them out and spliced them outside.
A skeleton more than two meters tall was put together perfectly, with slender arms and phalanges, all indicating that this unknown skeleton was indeed the corpse of a Vastwa.
"The body was not fatally wounded except for a broken hand and thigh, and it does not appear that he died of his injuries."
Matresa said after examining the bones.
"Wait, that's not right." She seemed to have discovered something again, and leaned down.
The tip of the snake's tail is quiet and no longer swaying.
Then he gently picked up a piece of ribs, looked at the color on the ribs, and even sniffed them gently.
"The effect of some kind of soul absorption, a large number of souls passed through this bone, leaving some soul power left in the bone."
Hearing this, Bororo curiously picked up the bone from Matricesa's hand.
I looked at it a few times, and even learned to smell it.
"Is it so mysterious? Not at all. ”
"You can see that you're not going to be a doctor." Jason complained next to him, receiving a kick from Poloro.
"Okay, okay, keep digging and seeing, I don't have enough information now, and I don't know what to do."
After Arka finished speaking, the crowd dispersed and dug again.
As the excavation got deeper and deeper, the entire ruins were revealed, and more bones were dug up.
Without exception, most of these bones did not die from external injuries, at least there were no fatal wounds on the bones.
But whether there are fatal wounded bones or not, there are traces of soul absorption on the bones.
It means that most of them die because their souls are sucked away.
As for how the soul is absorbed, they don't know who caused it.
After all, they hadn't even seen soul draining, and Matresa only knew, and she didn't know the real situation either.
It's strange why are there only bones here, and not in other places?
Jason: They are already speculating whether this place was a cemetery that was used to bury people?
It is not impossible to use a tower as a cemetery, after all, this is an ancient literary name tens of thousands of years ago, who knows.
With the complete excavation of the ruins.
Arka discovered that the ruins were actually relatively well preserved, not due to damage caused by external attacks, but from the shaking of the ground.
After all, the collapse caused by the two is not the same, and the two I saw before were both caused by external attacks except for the museum.
It was as if it had been interrupted by a huge hand.
It's not the same.
And Arka had already seen the golden light coming out of the cracks in the stone.
Pick up the shovel and walk over and dig gently.
"What are you digging there for?" Simon asked curiously.
There are already traces of the collapse of the ruins, and they need to be protected.
"There's a treasure in there." Arka said quietly.
"Oh, there's a treasure."
Hearing this, Simon nodded indifferently and went about his business.
Then he turned his head sharply, his face was full of surprise, and asked loudly, "What did you say?" Got a treasure? ”
"Treasures? Where are the treasures? ”
Jason also ran over curiously.
Everyone was drawn to the voice.
"Well, isn't that what it is?" Arka pointed to the pit he had dug and the golden glow of the object in the pit.
Next to the gold mine, half of the bones were revealed.
Why say half of the half because he doesn't have the lower body, and Arka only digs the side of the upper body.
The crowd immediately probed over.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze."
Arka dug up the object completely and held it in his hand, and the golden light disappeared with his touch.
It is a withered flower, and the withered petals are still hanging on the stamens, and even the rhizome has turned yellow.
If it weren't for the golden glow of it, it would look exactly like a withered flower, no different.
"It's ...... A treasure? Jason asked.
Truth be told, it's hard to believe.
If it hadn't been dug out of the soil, after all, a withered flower would not have been able to remain in the soil for tens of thousands of years.
"It's really hard to describe this appearance, and he will be promoted to the top of the list of the most inconspicuous treasures." Lucilia said suddenly.
"When did this list exist, why didn't I know?"
"I just had, and the last top of the list was my banner."
At this moment, Arka suddenly felt something bow his head.
The priest's hand, which had been reduced to bones, suddenly grasped his ankle firmly.
The pink mist erupted violently, and a mirror appeared on Alka's face, and in an instant, he entered the state of a dream and appeared a few meters away.
The whole process adds up to no more than a second.
And Xia Daiti, who was surrounded by them, also jumped behind them in an instant to dodge.
The bones in the pit remained intact, except for the arm that was broken by the grip.
A few meters away, Arka suddenly withdrew from the state of dream death, and looked at the hand bone on his ankle to remove it.
"Samore Road, Samore Road, Samore Road...... Er Road. The word kept ringing in my head.
The whole word flooded his mind, and he couldn't resist it at all.
Resisting stubbornly, sweat dripping down his head.
"Arka has a problem, save him!"
Shadetti first noticed Arka's strange appearance and shouted loudly.
Lucilia's body went limp, and her soul came out, burrowing into Arka's body like a sharp blade.
She could see that there was something wrong with Alka's spirit, and she was ready to burrow into Arka's soul space, which should be able to help him resist.
It's something they did a long, long time ago, and there's something to be done about it.
However, it was a step too late.
Arka opened his mouth and spoke a language that no one could understand, but that could be heard was unique to the island.
Everyone's hearts were half cold.
"Samore Road."
"The temple has been activated!" Julia said as she felt the sudden rise in magic around her.
This time they didn't want to wait where they were, but headed to the top of the pothole.
Shadetti and Jason, who were closest to Arka, strode up and prepared to take Arka with them.
This time, however, was different.
As soon as the words fell, their bodies immediately disappeared in place, only the shell of Lucilia's puppet, which had lost her soul, had changed back to its original form and fell in place.
The beautiful clothes on the doll are covered in a layer of dirty soil.
With the tumbling of the fall, it fell into the pit.
And with this sentence shouted.
The words that had been wildly occupied in Arka's brain disappeared, and his thoughts returned, and his brain was able to function again.
Take control of your body and look around.
Matresa had come to his side, the hands above him aimed at his brain, a faint magic surrounding his head.
The lower hands are raised to assist in the examination.
The rest turned their backs to Arka and shielded him in the center.
"How are you feeling right now?" Lucilia's voice came from the soul.
"When did you get into my body?" Arka said a little strangely.
His mind was filled with the same sentence just now, and he didn't care about what was going on around him.
"Just now, you just had a problem in a trance, and you also recited the Samar Road and activated this temple."
"Yes, when the corpse grabbed me just now, this sentence flooded into my head, forcing me to read it out."
Looking back now, if it weren't for the fact that the strength of his spirit and soul was much higher than that of ordinary people, he might not be able to resist at all when this thought poured into his mind.
And he resisted for at least a few seconds.
Think about the identity of the bones.
After all, he was a powerhouse in the mythical era tens of thousands of years ago, and he was still one of the leaders of a city-state, and it was already good that the back hand left behind could resist for a few seconds.
Alka comforted himself in his heart.
With a treasure beside him, isn't that the corpse the high priest?
Looking at Matrice, who was checking herself, she opened her eyes and said, "It's okay, I'm fine." ”
Matresa looked at him and nodded, she had just checked it and found nothing wrong.
Just because I am not sure and the state of the Arka, I perform a detailed examination.
"Is this the overlapping space of the temple?" Arka asked, looking around.
Xia Daiti nodded.
"Are you alright? What happened just now? ”
"It's okay, something went wrong just now, I'll talk to you later."
Then look at the surroundings.
This is about a square space with a side length of 200 meters and a height of about 10 meters.
Everything around was already shattered and scattered, except for a blue crystal ball in the house that was still floating silently.
At this time, the blue crystal ball was emitting a faint shimmer, and the light was getting stronger and stronger.
Crowding around them even more vigilantly, Lucilia's soul emerged from Arka's chest and looked outside.
With the convergence of blue light, a flickering figure composed of light appeared.
Distinctly Vasteva features, wearing a robe of an unknown color, which appears to be some kind of religious robe, judging by the patterns and symbols on the robe.
His eyes were numb, and his expression was like a machine.
What is remarkable is that he does not have a lower body, and only floats with an upper body condensed by a glimmer of light.
Looking at Arka and the others.
Suddenly he said something.
The language of the island is spoken, and the problem is that Arka can actually understand it.
He plucked out his ears to make sure he had heard correctly.
"He speaks the language of the island, right?"
Hearing this, Xia Daiti turned his head to look at him, and then nodded.
"I don't know who you are, I don't know where you're from, or even how many years from now.
But I want you to help us, to help our fellow citizens who are trapped in another dimension...... Trapped in the ...... of the Pioneering Heart, this is a divine ...... treasures, which are stored in ...... Open ...... Autumn...... Together...... Beat...... Hope you ...... Thank. ”
Listening to this person, in addition to the first few sentences, there are all kinds of intermittent voices behind him.
Even the condensed body shape could not be maintained, flickering and flickering, as if it had been short-circuited.
But fortunately, Arka was able to learn more about the treasure information, so he was able to understand some of it.
I can probably understand what he is trying to say.
When he said the last word of thanks, he disappeared directly.
Even the crystal ball floating behind it dimmed, smashed straight on the floor of the space, rolled down twice to the side and got stuck in the corner.
"What did he just say? How is it intermittent, and you can understand the way you look? Shadetti asked, looking at Alka.
Arka nodded.
"Maybe it's because of that message just now, I can suddenly understand their language."
"Normal, after all, he's asking us for help, isn't he? If we can't even understand the language he has left, how can we help them? Lucilia, who also understood, said next to her.
Arka nodded, and that was indeed the case.
"And what did he just say? It looks like there is no malice, what do you want us to help them? Jason asked curiously.
The series of actions just now were all means for this phantom to ask for help before he died.
Perhaps even he didn't expect that the first person to find his bones after his death was found here, and it was tens of thousands of years before he found the person here.
The sphere could last for tens of thousands of years, and Arka thought it was already remarkable.
