Chapter 424 Large Desert Castle
Just now, Duan Yu and most of his teammates focused their attention on the changes in the sky and were shocked by the rare clouds and a large number of python-like lightning in the Sheepbone Desert.
That's why they didn't notice that not far ahead, there was a desert castle.
Even though there is a large amount of dust and sand buried around it, the desert castle is still entrenched here like an ancient beast, and even the vicissitudes of time and the rolling dust and sand have not been able to completely annihilate it.
"That's right, this castle should be the one painted by the murals we saw in the ruins of the ancient city on the first night we came to the Sheep Bone Desert, corresponding to the image of the fire phoenix. Duan Yu groaned.
"It can't be such a coincidence, but I believe that a powerful demon beast like the Fire Phoenix really exists, and my grandfather will never lie to people. Let's enter the castle later, and don't touch anything that looks strange, especially the crimson hedron or something. Sima said ruthlessly.
"It makes sense that those strange things that have fallen into a deep sleep, as long as we don't wake them up, there is no danger. Duan Yu said.
Having said that, in fact, Duan Yu's heart was still quite worried, if he really saw a lot of rare treasures in the ancient castle later, even if he and Sima Wuru, Ouyang Wushu, and Zhao Yanling could control themselves from being moved, but the others were not sure.
Once that time comes, the four of them won't be able to stop so many people at all.
As the old saying goes: people die for money, and birds die for food.
This is a general statement, and it makes a lot of sense. Once these people were blinded by the so-called treasures, then even if Zhao Yanling gave orders to those silver-armored guards. I guess it won't do much, they will still go their own way.
Something like that. Even if it were stated to the Platinum City Lord, it was estimated that there would be no heavy punishment for the silver-armored samurai.
The reason is simple. Because the fundamental task assigned to the silver-armored guards by the platinum city lord was to protect Zhao Yanling at any cost, as long as this task was completed, it was enough. As for the fact that they can't help but fight for treasures when they encounter them, that's a normal thing.
Let's ask, on the land of true martial arts, how many warriors can be completely unmoved in front of rare treasures?
Even Duan Yu and the others were just afraid of such a dangerous situation and still kept a clear head.
Duan Yu glanced up at the heavenly dome, where a large number of heavy clouds were still condensing, forming a large whirlpool. The energy was thick, and lightning rushed around it, as if the vortex was the eye of the storm.
The white sunlight was completely annihilated, and even the afterglow was completely obscured by the clouds.
"Boom~" There was a loud bang, but it was a python-like lightning bombardment in the sheep bone desert, and a huge pit suddenly appeared, and a large amount of dust and sand that was blown up was filled in the void, which was so spectacular and breathtaking.
There were several silver-armored guards who were not determined and courageous enough. Nearly fell off the unicorn's back.
Duan Yu and his teammates urged their mounts and ran to the large desert castle at a faster speed.
Everyone couldn't help but glance back, and suddenly saw a lot of lightning bombarding the vast desert at will from time to time, as if they were not only going to tear this heavenly dome apart. It's as if the entire sheepbone desert will be shattered.
Some demon beasts were originally lurking in the sand and sleeping, the so-called day and night, this is also called.
But a large number of lightning bolts bombarded down one after another. Those demon beasts that were hiding were not spared at all, and they were killed one after another. They were bombarded to the point that no bones remained.
In fact, monsters are very sensitive to changes in the natural environment. Much more sensitive than a human warrior.
For this, others don't know the reason, but Duan Yu understands, because usually when the celestial phenomena change, there will be a kind of infrasound waves that human ears can't hear at all, and the frequency range of the sound that the ears of the demon beasts can hear is very different from that of humans, so they can hear the omen of the celestial changes in advance.
Perhaps such a celestial phenomenon once happened in the Sheep Bone Desert, so that a large number of demon beasts did not run around in a panic, but continued to hide.
The monsters also understood that even if they ran in groups on this vast sandy land, they were more likely to be struck by lightning, and they might be lucky enough to escape the catastrophe if they hid.
"I'm curious about one thing. Zhao Yanling sighed faintly.
"Listen to it. Duan Yu said calmly.
"Why should those demon beasts stay in the sand and wait to be killed? they can escape to this large desert castle like us, and they can escape this catastrophe safely. No matter how big and more lightning there is, it will definitely not be able to bombard the inside of this ancient castle. Zhao Yanling said.
Duan Yu said: "Presumably, there must be something in this ancient castle that these demon beasts are afraid of, and they think that the danger of the ancient castle is more and more terrifying than the current celestial phenomenon. The lightning could only kill some of the demon beasts, and if they entered the castle, they would probably be completely dead. ”
"Then do we still want to go in?" Zhao Yanling also said with some concern.
"Why don't you go in? We're not monsters, and the things they fear may be good for us. Duan Yu smiled lightly.
No matter what the danger is, he can remain calm and optimistic, which is one of the characters that makes the woman quite excited.
Even the other teammates were not surprised by Duan Yu's change, and they admired the temperament of commanding Ruoding.
"What Brother Duan said is very true, besides, my generation of martial arts masters must continue to adventure in order to continue to break through. Let's go inside!" Sima ruthlessly said.
"That's right, we just want to know that there are tigers in the mountains, and we prefer to go to the tiger mountains. Ouyang Invincible also smiled heartily.
Then Duan Yu led everyone into the large desert castle that was a little dark and cold, and there was a large amount of lightning and thunder behind it, and it almost hit the door of the ancient castle.
It can be seen that even if they are still hesitant, it is impossible to stay on the sand outside, which is simply an act of sitting and waiting for death.
Lightning has a very keen sense of the creatures that appear on the surface, and no one knows the reason for this, and the Sheepbone Desert is a very unusual place.
Duan Yu and several of his teammates were holding fire folds in their hands, and the faint light of the fire illuminated the front a little, but because of the faint green mist and miasma, they couldn't see too far away.
"These miasma are very troublesome, and we have to protect our hearts and minds at all times. In general, we will stay here for an hour at most, or you will die because of it any longer. Duan Yu said.
"Brother Duan said this, which means that no matter how much miasma there is, it won't have any effect on you?" Zhao Yanling asked curiously.
"I once devoured the King of Ten Thousand Poisons, the Mang Zhu Clam, by chance, so that I had a body that was invulnerable to all poisons, so these miasma did not hinder me. Duan Yu said indifferently.
Ouyang Invincible suddenly said: "No wonder that in the canyon outside the ancient town of Styx, when I was plotted by Duan Changhong's quenching steel needle, I almost died, thanks to Brother Duan, you used your own blood to detoxify me." I didn't understand it at the time, but now I finally do. ”
Duan Yu smiled lightly and did not respond.
"What I'm worried about now is that last night, didn't the leader of the indigenous black-robed people repeatedly warn us to leave this sheep bone desert as much as possible, and not to explore deeply, otherwise there will be a catastrophe of death?" Sima ruthlessly sighed deeply.
"Yes, we are dangerous. However, there are so many strange lightning bolts out there now, relatively speaking, inside the castle, the chances of survival are still greater. Let me remind you once again, no matter what kind of so-called treasures you see later, don't act rashly, but make a decision after deliberation?" Duan Yu said.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Brother Duan, don't worry, I can guarantee that if these silver-armored guards under my command dare to keep ordering, I will kill them one by one with one sword. Zhao Yanling said.
Duan Yu nodded, but he actually understood in his heart: "When it really comes to that time, the silver-armored guards are scattered, even if Zhao Yanling wants to kill them, it is estimated that it will be difficult to do it." Moreover, after the battle in the ancient town of Styx, the weaker silver-armored guards have all died, and those who survived are all masters. ”
The castle was so quiet that everyone was so light that even the sound of footsteps was so slight that they could hear their own heartbeats and breathing.
Duan Yu's thinking was thoughtful, and he said in his heart: "Maybe the people of the Heaven Breaking Alliance are also ambushed here, and it is impossible for them to stay outside and be threatened by a large number of thunder and lightning. ”
Duan Yu and his teammates had already activated their internal forces, spread all over their limbs, and their swords had already been unsheathed, ready to deal with any danger that arose.
As they went deeper and deeper into the magnificent desert castle, the sound of thunder and lightning outside was completely inaudible, and they only felt the profound antiquity here.
After walking through the main hall, there is a long cloister, and the surrounding windows are blocked by a large amount of dust and sand, and the light is dim.
There were a lot of torches and lamps on both sides, but Duan Yu shook his head and signaled to everyone not to light these things, although the lamps and torches were much brighter than the fire fold in his hand, but they were too dangerous.
After some further distance, they finally decided to pull out a few torches from the wall and light them, and although they had to be careful, the sight was also important.
There are a lot of monsters and warrior bones on the ground, among which the bones of monsters are the majority, which also proves that the desert castle is extremely dangerous for monsters, and they would rather hide in the sand and bear the danger of being bombarded by lightning than go to the castle to hide.
