Chapter 13: The Tortoise-toothed Beast
Elder Zhao looked at the flower-faced scholar who was slowly walking in front of him, and said.
"Scholar of Flower Face, don't you just want the Zhurong Order on me, as long as you are willing to let us go, I will give it to you. ”
"Hahahaha. ”
The flower-faced scholar burst out laughing and said, "Could it be that Elder Zhao, do you think there is still room for bargaining with me at this moment?"
"Phew. Elder Zhao took a sip and said, "Scholar with a flower face, do you really want to make enemies with my Mo Mansion?"
As long as you take the Zhurong order and let us go this time, our Mofu can not blame the past this time. Otherwise, you will be ready to be hunted down by our Mofu until you flee to the end of the world!"
"Oh, I'm so scared!"
The flower-faced scholar took a few steps back and forth in front of Elder Zhao, the flower fan swaying, and he looked at Elder Zhao's dying struggle with a playful expression.
"Your Mofu is very powerful, but if I kill you here and don't leave a trace of us, then no one will know?"
Elder Zhao's body trembled, a cold sweat broke out on his back in an instant, his expression suddenly turned gray, and he muttered something in his mouth.
"No, no, no.... I don't want to die yet!"
Elder Zhao's palm was extremely white, and he struck at the flower-faced scholar with a wave of his palm, and at the same time, his body was full of flaws, and it was actually a kind of fighting style that ended up together, and he yelled at the flower-faced scholar.
"If you want me to die, old man, I will also drag you to the end"
The flower-faced scholar sneered, and Elder Zhao's dying counterattack was all he expected.
Just as he was about to avoid Elder Zhao's menacing palm and turn sideways to kill, suddenly the entire stone chamber trembled violently.
Lin Yu, who was hiding on the side and watching carefully, couldn't stand on his feet and sat on the ground in the violent tremor of the stone room.
Everyone was puzzled, and they stopped fighting one after another, looking at each other.
While everyone was in shock, the sound of water "gurgling, gurgling..." came from the depths of the cave.
Everyone looked at the end of the stone room with bated breath, but they didn't expect that this big stone room was hidden in another place.
I saw that on the other side of this large stone chamber was a bottomless deep lake, and the gurgling sound of water bubbling came from there.
A violent roar came from the depths of the dark tan, shaking people's eardrums and panicking.
A huge mountain-like figure crawled out from the depths of the secluded tan, and the pool of water shot out in all directions, and turned into water droplets flying in the sky and drenched everyone's hearts.
Mrs. Ling's snow-white clothes were wet, the gauze clothes were close to her graceful body, and on the exposed snow-white breasts, water droplets fluctuated with her chest, but no one could care about appreciating such a spring color at this time.
Mrs. Suzu looked at the huge hideous beast that appeared in front of everyone with a gloomy face, and the water droplets were scattered.
The beast had a hideous face, fangs, a rocky shell, and limbs covered in sharp barbs and a flame-like glow of blue flames.
It was three or four stories tall, but it had several huge chains and passage pipes on its back, which were inserted deep into its back, as if to tie the beast to prevent it from escaping.
The beast's golden vertical pupils glanced at the crowd, and it opened its fangs and roared, as if to vent its awakened anger like everyone.
For a moment, the stone chamber shook, and everyone was blown by this roar, and the power of this roar actually made everyone a little unstable.
And Lin Yu was even more staggered by the strong wind caused by this roar.
"Could this be the turtle-toothed beast recorded in the legend, the Eight Desolations?"
I don't know who said it, and everyone's minds remembered the turtle-toothed beast recorded in the Eight Desolations: a hunched mountain peak, shaped like a turtle, with double teeth and fangs, barbed limbs, and feet on the flames.
Good at resisting water, his body is like iron, and he has the power of stepping on the twin peaks, isn't this exactly the same as the description of the giant beast in front of him?
"Damn it!"
The flower-faced scholar's face was pale, and he didn't care that Elder Zhao took advantage of everyone's panic to distance himself from him.
The flower-faced scholar looked at the turtle-toothed beast in front of everyone, and seemed to think of something in his mind, and exclaimed: "This turtle-toothed beast appeared here, is this really the underground palace built by the craftsmen that day as I expected when I first came in?"
"Heavenly Craftsman?"
Everyone heard what the flower-faced scholar said, and they suddenly took a deep breath and let out a burst of exclamation.
The craftsmen of heaven say that everyone knows and is familiar with the afterlife, and according to legend, there was a craftsman many years ago, and this person was named Rudolph.
The siege equipment designed by this person is a god, and the machinery is precise and seamless.
The princes and generals of various countries vied with each other to recruit them, but they had no intention of participating in the war, getting involved in politics, and lived in seclusion.
I thought that this person's skills would be lost, but I didn't think that more than 2,000 years ago, a group of craftsmen appeared in a princely country, claiming to be Rudolph's descendants.
The siege equipment designed by these craftsmen allowed the vassal state to annex many of the surrounding princely territories in just one month, and even one of the great powers was not spared.
Everyone in the world was shocked, and later generations called these people the heavenly craftsmen.
However, because 1,500 years ago, because the king of the country attached to him was mediocre, he asked the king to go into hiding.
But the king ordered the arrest of all the Heavenly Craftsmen, trying to coerce them to continue to help him.
However, the heavenly craftsmen who learned the news fled overnight in order to avoid arrest, and then disappeared to this day, but they did not want to escape to this place and build such a magnificent underground palace.
"Scholar with a flower face, I don't know how you are sure that this place is the underground palace built by the craftsmen that day?"
The figure of a sword and a city trick floated to the side of the flower-faced scholar and asked in surprise.
The flower-faced scholar pointed to the veins crisscrossing the ground.
"The city and underground palace built by the heavenly craftsmen are all incomparable, and the criss-crossing lines and veins of the ground are the unique craftsmanship of the heavenly craftsmen to build the underground palace.
It is designed to drive the power of energy to drive the device.
According to legend, when the Heavenly Craftsmen escaped and captured, there were masters who helped them and gave them a thing, the only remaining remnant of the desolation in the world-the turtle-toothed beast. ”
The flower-faced scholar frowned, glanced at the pipe connected to the back of the huge turtle-toothed beast in front of him, and said, "If my guess is right, the place we are in should be the heart of the underground palace.
The craftsmen who fled here for some reason and built the underground palace here were collectively killed at the entrance of the cave before they could drive the underground palace after it was built.
And the energy that drives this underground palace is probably the turtle-toothed beast in front of you!"
Everyone said "Ah!", they all looked at the ground crisscrossing the veins under their feet, and then at the huge turtle-toothed beast in front of them, and they were even more convinced of what the flower-faced scholar said.
Just as everyone was in a panic, the huge turtle-toothed beast seemed to be a little impatient, and looked at the ant-like crowd on the ground with vertical pupils.
It was they who woke it up from its sweet dreams, so that it woke up from its slumber after more than a thousand years, and when it woke up, it endured the pain of the thick chains on its back, the flesh that was deeply inserted into its body.
The turtle-toothed beast opened its giant crocodile and let out an unpleasant roar that caused the stone chamber to shake violently.
Suddenly, inside its huge body, a dark blue flame of spiritual power ignited, illuminating its entire body.
The gloomy Tan around it, which had originally calmed down, began to agitate, forming dozens of sky-high water columns with a diameter of more than a dozen meters.
And with the abundant spiritual power in the turtle-toothed beast's body, the tube on its back kept absorbing the spiritual power in its body and transporting it to the underground palace.
Suddenly, the criss-crossing veins on the ground under everyone's feet lit up, and the entire underground palace was finally activated after fifteen hundred years of construction.
