Chapter 206: The Truth of the Dark Clan!
The group made their way to the magnificent castle, and at last the light was a little fuller.
Passing through the corridor, Ryuichi and the Second Prince were each assigned a room.
"Distinguished guests from afar, you should rest for a while, and after dinner and lunch, we will go to see the golem. Said the Dark Maiden.
Lunch?
Long Yi looked at the fireflies in the sky outside, and he really didn't feel the slightest noon.
"Okay, thank you!" As a prince, the second prince represents the face of the country, and the number of courtesies is naturally indispensable. The Dark Saintess left, and the Second Prince told Long Yi that the timekeeping method of the Dark City was exactly the same as that on the ground. But they measure time by the density of these fireflies in the sky. As the time progresses, the number of fireflies in the sky will increase. And then with the arrival of the afternoon, there will be less and less. Until night, there were no fireflies in the sky.
These fireflies are inconspicuous in the eyes of humans, but they are very bright in the eyes of the Darkling, and they feel them very intuitively.
However, it's really funny that it's an underground race, but it maintains a similar lifestyle to the creatures on the ground.
Ryuichi threw a set of punches in the room. After all, after sleeping all the way in a weird posture, Long Yi needs to relax his muscles and invigorate his blood.
Then, lunch came.
Basically, grains are the common kind. The vegetables don't seem to be anything special, but there is one dish that is very impressive.
It's a kind of meat that I don't know what kind of material it is, and it's not so delicious or unpalatable. It tastes more chewy. And what makes Ryuichi favorite is the taste of this dish.
Hot!
Since coming to this world, Long Yi has rarely been able to eat spicy food. This made Long Yi, who was not spicy and unhappy back then, very unhappy. Xiao Zi's cooking skills are naturally not said, but if there is a little spicy, it will be even better.
And in the Dark City, almost every dish is spicy! And that meat is even more spicy! Although Ryuichi didn't see the chili pepper in the dish, and he didn't taste the pepper, the spicy taste was really evocative.
The second prince who was traveling with him was bitter, but Long Yi was completely happy with it! This long-lost feeling! It was really touching!
After lunch. The Dark Saintess who had already changed into a costume appeared again, and Long Yi originally thought that she would change into a dress or something, but he didn't expect it. She actually changed into a set of overalls. And it seems that the overalls are definitely not the first time she has worn them, although they have been washed, but the oil stains and mottled scratches on them prove it. The owner of this overalls is definitely not a man who can only talk about it.
"Mr. Ryuichi. Is lunch still the same as the taste?" asked the Dark Maiden as if politely.
"Good! great!" Ryuichi gave a thumbs up.
"Yay. Somehow, Long Yi saw that the expression on the face of the Dark Saint Maiden was visibly much more relaxed.
"However, can I know how you got this spicy taste?" Long Yi wanted to know where this spicy taste came from.
"Okay, but let's repair the golem first, shall we?" For some reason, Ryuichi noticed that the Dark Maiden's tone seemed to be much soothed and more respectful than before. Is it because I can eat spicy food? So did it give them a good feeling?
"Okay, let's go. Long Yi said it didn't matter. Maybe it's a secret.
The Dark Saintess walked ahead, followed by Long Yi and the Second Prince. The guards of the Undercity and the guards of the Second Prince were on either side. There were no people on the way, and everyone went all the way without encountering any obstacles. Long Yi was very curious about the various customs of the Dark City, but unfortunately he didn't know how to ask about it.
However, fortunately, as the second prince, he must have excellent diplomatic skills, and after a few casual conversations, he asked a lot of things.
The location of the Undercity is a secret, but it is certain that the city is about seventeen kilometers underground. Such a deep distance is difficult to reach by ordinary natural and man-made disasters.
Almost everyone in the Undercity has mastered the craft of making golems with crystal nuclei, which is mostly limited to a few ordinary structures, of course. The Undercity itself is built on the energy of the crystal nucleus. With an unrivaled grasp of the energy of the crystal nucleus, the Undercity has gone farther on the road of relying on external forces than any other human terrestrial nation. A long time ago, after an excavation of ancient ruins, the Golem technique became the most commendable place in the Undercity.
The Undercity refers to all man-made beings powered by crystal nuclei that can move autonomously as golems. They made cat golems to deal with mice, bat golems to deal with mosquitoes, and firefly golems to solve lighting problems.
Of course, there is also some combat armor, which is also essentially a Golem.
And all this, in essence, comes from a certain real golem in the ancient ruins.
As she spoke, the Dark Saintess led the group to an extremely tall door.
The door was twenty meters high, shimmering with a metallic glow in the faint light around it.
"Open the door. The Dark Maiden spoke.
Then, the two gates, which were half a meter wide, opened slowly, and Ryuichi could even see the complex structures on both sides of the gate opening with the gates.
"Sorry, dragons are not allowed here. ”
The Dark Saintess said to Long Yi.
Bajie pouted, indifferently found a corner and sat down, still reminiscing about the previous meat in his mind. Xiao You flew over and landed on Bajie's head.
Finally, behind the door, everyone saw the destination of the trip.
A true golem.
It was a muscular figure of a man, more than ten meters tall and made entirely of metal, with heavy armor carved into it. His hands were clenched in front of his chest, as if he were holding a great sword.
It can be seen that many places on the golem have been opened, and a lot of scaffolding has been built around it, and the Darkpeople are busy going back and forth on it.
"It turns out that it's hiding here. The Adamantite Golem smiled.
"Old acquaintance?" Ryuichi asked.
"I don't know him, but I know him. The last one is also the strongest golem. Before he could go to the battlefield, he was sealed up, and he wasn't even given a weapon. This guy ran out of the warehouse, after slaughtering more than a hundred dragons with his bare hands. Thrown into volcanic lava by a group of dragons. Unexpectedly, it appeared here again. ”
The Adamantite Golem said.
"So, this guy is really fierce!" slaughtered more than a hundred dragons with his bare hands without weapons, not to mention that he is fierce, what can he say.
"Fierce, it's because Giant Technology was able to provide him with almost infinite energy back then, you look at the hole in his chest, right. It was the place where the Dark Clan people came in and out, and that was the power core back then. With such a huge energy core, where are you going to find him now?" the Adamantite Golem asked rhetorically.
Long Yihe and the Adamantite Golem were not loud. So what they say is basically not heard.
The energy core, Long Yi estimated it, and the diameter of the core was about one meter. With the current crystal nucleus technique, create such a large core. It's enough to scare people to death.
"What then?" asked Ryuichi rhetorically.
"Let's see. I heard that this guy was not smart in the first place, and he didn't know if there was any damage to the road when he threw it into the magma, and it was still a question of whether he could move it. ”
When the Dark Maiden arrived, everyone who was still working immediately came down from above, and without any orders, everyone left the scene and walked through the gate.
"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince. Please leave here with your guards. The Dark Maiden said.
The second prince nodded in understanding, and the topic to be discussed next must be extremely sensitive. It must be the Undercity's biggest secret, so he immediately left with his guards. Not only him, but also the scene and the guards of the Dark Maiden left at the same time.
There, only the Dark Maiden and the Dragon were left.
Seeing the second prince leave, the gate closed heavily.
"Alright, Your Highness, what are we going to do next......"
The dragon turned around, but halfway through his words, he couldn't say any more.
Because behind him, I don't know when, the Dark Saintess has quietly stripped off all her clothes!
No, no, not all, but she only wore one overalls!
Wait! Is this a common plot in fantasy novels! I am a master she has never met! And she wants to sacrifice herself for her master! As a man, do I accept it! Or accept it! Or accept it!
"Calm down, pervert, look at her chest. The Adamantite Golem slapped Ryuichi the shoulder, causing Ryuichi to shift his gaze to the position of the Dark Saintess's chest.
There, Ryuichi saw an intricate mechanism the size of a girl's fist, with a flash of light.
Seeing this device, Long Yi's head suddenly exploded, and then, he understood everything.
"You are a core group. ”
Back then, during the war between the Giants and the Dragons, the Giants also found some ways to deal with it. For example, they create powerful golems to deal with dragons. These golems possess extremely strong defense, can cast fighting energy and spells, and once had an advantage when facing dragons. But later, the dragons also found a way to break the Golem, and that was to destroy the core of the Golem. The Golem uses the core as the center, and powerful energy is supplied to the Golem's body through the core. And once the core is destroyed, the golem will immediately become a pile of scrap metal.
In response to this approach, the giants have developed intelligent cores.
The core is no longer a bunch of cold machines, but a living being, some small human being.
The giants call them the Core Clan. They are smarter and more flexible. They can transform themselves into the core of the golem, turning the golem into a mobile armor with intelligence, and the core will decide to break away from the golem itself and return to its human form when it senses danger.
It can be said that this is a perfect plan. But it's a pity that this plan was drawn too late.
At that time, the defeat of the giants was already decided, and it was no longer possible to solve it with one or two armors.
"That year, our ancestors, the Dragon Destroyer Warframe, killed one hundred and three Wyverns, only to be outnumbered and thrown into lava. Our ancestor was brought here by magma without consciousness, and he used his knowledge and the great abilities of the core to build this place into an underground city, and then he brought all of our core people here to hide. He firmly believes that the giants will return and the dragons will be destroyed. (To be continued......)
