Chapter 115 The poor priests
Chapter 115: Poor Priests
There were no monsters or any mechanisms at the unfolding gate, but it was more troublesome than those things. There was actually a lobby behind the gate, and what was worse was that there were many people gathering here at this time, as if they were carrying out some kind of sacrificial activities. These people were also surprised by our sudden appearance, and they all looked at me and Bai Lang. I carefully walked out of the stone gate that had been pierced, and then looked back and immediately knew that they were in trouble!
From this point where we penetrated, there was a wall, and there were a lot of murals and text on the wall. What was more noticeable was the huge sun logo made of gold directly above the mural.
"Oh my God! This is the temple of the Sun God!" Bai Lang was also shocked when he saw the sign.
While Bai Lang said it, I felt a chill behind me. I slowly turned my head but saw thousands of pairs of angry eyes. A bald head wearing a golden ornament suddenly pointed at me and shouted loudly: "Guard, catch this intruder."
A team of fully armed soldiers rushed in from outside the hall, judging by the posture, they probably planned to dismember us first and then slowly study why we suddenly appeared here.
"Wait a minute! This is a misunderstanding." Although I knew this would probably not work, I still tried it.
The guards on the opposite side did not react at all, and the people in the hall quickly separated and some retreated. The other part picked up the staff. There were obviously several high-level priests here, and the priests of the Sun God could attack magic!
"Run back." I turned around and ran while reminding Bai Lang.
We were driven back to the passage by thousands of troops less than ten meters away from the passage. We were really unlucky today.
I ran and asked, "Bailang, are you sure the smell of Mamos left from where?"
"I don't know, the smell at the exit is very messy, but I think there is no fork in there, so it shouldn't be wrong, right?"
"But those people outside are clearly holding sacrificial activities. If Mamos ran out from there first, there is no reason why those people are still holding sacrificial sacrifices in peace?"
"Is there a secret fork nearby?" Bai Lang is worthy of being a special monster for tomb guards, and has a very high understanding of things like the tunnel.
"I don't know, I have to go back and take a look anyway. But we have to get rid of the guys behind us first."
"How is there?" Bai Lang pointed to the front with his nose. At the corner there, a small shadow was left due to the installation of the luminous stones in the passage, and we only had that small shadow.
I turned over and rode on Bai Lang's back, and then Bai Lang jumped and jumped into the dark shadow. The guards chasing us thought we couldn't figure it out and were about to hit the wall, but who knew that after we rushed over, they suddenly disappeared. The guards were stunned for a moment. After a while, a guard shouted, "There must be a portal there, go and find it."
A large group of guards rushed to the place where we disappeared and searched, but they couldn't find anything because there was nothing there. The type of white wave is the shadow beast, and the special skill includes a shadow movement. As long as it is within the visible area or the place where we have just arrived, as long as there is a shadow white wave, you can use it as a teleportation point.
King Kong rushed to the edge of the bed and hugged the head of the iron lock bed, then roared, and a squeak of metal twisting sound, the all-metal subway lock bed was lifted halfway. This bed was not only made of metal, but also riveted to the ground. However, King Kong's power was too great, and he lifted up the end he grabbed. But the other end was still fixed on the ground, so he actually bent this half. Bright light immediately shot out from the half of the bed, proving that our guess was not wrong.
Vajra supported the ground with one hand and grabbed the bent half of the bed with the other hand and pushed it hard to both sides. The crack was lifted even wider with a metal twist. Vajra went around the other end and grabbed the already opened part and pulled it backwards. The entire bed was finally completely pulled down. After putting away Vajra, I jumped down with Bai Lang.
Here is a closed room, not a new secret passage. The light in the room is very bright, obviously not a place to keep people in check. The whole room is less than twenty square meters in total, and you can see it at a glance. Apart from some messy things, there is only one cabinet standing by the wall. There is no other passage at all. At this time, the dilapidated cabinet was still vibrating there. The fool also knew that someone was hiding inside, and the man was so scared that he was shaking, making the cabinets shake together.
I didn't rush to open the cabinet, but summoned Jingjing and Lingling to let them guard the exit, and then let Yeyue, Xiaochun and Ling out to prevent him from resisting. After all, I walked to the cabinet and suddenly opened the cabinet door.
"Ah!...Don't kill me...I don't know...please let me go...I know I'm wrong...I give you everything...I give you everything...!" Mamos hugged in a corner of the cabinet in horror, and kept changing the position of his arms to block possible attacks.
"I'm not here to kill you. Come out quickly."
"Impossible, you said that last time."
"I'm really not!"
"I won't believe it." Mamos still refused to come out.
It seems that it is useless to persuade this guy in a positive way. "Okay. Even if I come to kill you, it will be useless to hide in the cabinet, right?"
Mamos was stunned for a moment, and then he really crawled out of the cabinet, but this time he held me and pushed me desperately to let him go. No matter how I explained, he always believed that I was here to kill him, which made it completely unreasonable. This guy must have paranoia and always fantasizes that someone wants to kill him.
"Okay, okay, we are here to kill you, we admit it." Ling suddenly interrupted my explanation and directly admitted that we are here to kill him.
A strange thing happened. After knowing that we were here to kill him, Mamos calmed down instead. He sat on the floor blankly and muttered to himself: "After so many years, are you still unwilling to let me go? Alas! Forget it. My companions are gone, and it doesn't make any point to live. If you want to kill, kill me. But can I make a request before I die?"
I was about to explain, but Ling said first: "As long as it's not too much."
Mamos asked me in frustration: "I just want to know how you left that passage."
"Which paragraph are you referring to?"
"It's the section where you were closed, and I said there you couldn't catch my passage."
"Oh, you talk about that part! It's nothing. There is a very strong force in my spirit control. We just pushed the wall away with brute force."
"Impossible!" Mamos asked in confusion: "Don't you feel any discomfort in it?"
"Discomfortable? Why do we feel uncomfortable?"
Mamos began to murmur to himself again, "It makes no sense! I clearly put the divine power gem in the middle of that passage, and your divine power should be completely suppressed!"
"What did you say just now?" I lifted Mamos up from the ground. "You said the divine gem is in the passage where we were just trapped?"
"Yes." Mamos nodded in horror: "That's why I wonder why you can still come out after being deprived of your divine power."
After hearing Mamos's words, I reached out and threw him out, turned around and ran out. Mamos was thrown to death. After getting up, I found that my demon pet and I had already gone out. He crawled out of the basement and shouted at us who had already run far away, "Don't you kill me?"
"Not available!"
This paranoid maniac always thinks that someone wants to kill him, but I don’t have that time. The Stone of Divine Power, a gem that can suppress divine power, but I didn’t expect that I walked over from under him without discovering it. But I thought that Mamos wanted to use that thing as a trap to deal with the gods who were chasing him, so that thing must have been disguised.
I returned along the same route and ran to the narrow passage entrance. The mechanism back from here was quite obvious. It was just a hanging ring, and it was done with one pull. After the passage was slowly opened, I jumped out quickly. As a result, I saw the priests on the ground who had just been knocked unconscious by us and were humming and trying to get up. Obviously, they had just recovered their consciousness. But before they could get up, I gave them one more time, and the priests lay down again before they could get up.
After turning into the passage, Ling and Xiaochun took the initiative to say that they were not convenient to move at high speed in the passage, so they asked me to take them back first and release them when needed. I left Ye Yue and Bai Lang to help. Everyone else took them back. I returned to human form and rode Bai Lang forward. Bai Lang was very accustomed to this underground secret passage. He did not touch the ground, but relied entirely on the reaction force of the wall to jump forward in the passage, and the speed was as fast as a whirlwind. This movement method can move forward at full speed in the passage. Even if other creatures are faster in a straight line than Bai Lang, they will definitely not be his opponent in such a passage. Although Ye Yue will not rebound and move, her big tail is indeed very convenient, and the movement speed is only a little slower than Bai Lang.
We quickly rushed back to the passage where we were trapped. The palm prints left by the Vajra on the wall were still clearly visible. Mamos said that the Divine Power Stone was on the top of the passage where it was, but I forgot to ask where it was! "Yeyue, take down those lighting stones first. If there is one, it should be hidden in those things."
Although Ye Yue usually only keeps her head at a height of about 1.7 meters, she has a big tail over ten meters long after all. As long as she stands up on her upper body, in theory he can reach more than ten meters high. The top of the passage is only more than two meters, and Ye Yue can reach the top by stretching her body slightly. She first activates the combat form and transforms her arms into three pairs. Then she starts digging the lighting gems. Six hands are convenient, with two hands holding a sword as a sheath stick, and the other hands picking up the gaps in the gems, and two hands can follow the gems below to prevent it from falling out and breaking.
Yeyue digging gems on it, causing dust to fall down the top. Bailang and I were both confused when we stood below. Yeyue had goggles and did not open her eyes, so she didn't have to worry about this problem.
There are seven lighting gems in this passage, all of which were dug down. However, none of them were divine gems. In desperation, they had to increase their search efforts and pry off the top of the entire passage. Although the strata here are mostly full of rocks, a large amount of gravel will still fall. After turning over for a long time, there is nothing on the top, and we can't find the divine gems at all.
Ye Yue asked while prying the stone slab: "We won't be fooled by that old guy, are we?"
"It probably won't be possible? It doesn't make any sense for him to lie to us!"
"Why can't I find it until now? That guy looks so nervous. Could it be... this..." Ye Yue said while angrily stabbing the sword into the rock layer above to vent his anger, but just as the sword was about to completely enter the rock, it suddenly stuck. It was not the feeling of stopping due to the exhaustion of power, but hitting something that could not be cut suddenly stopped. The snake sword used by Ye Yue was forged by herself, and the material was said to come from the ground weapons used by the Nuwa tribe. Although the sharpness was not as strong as that of my land, it was absolutely unambiguous to cut the gold and jade, but now it was stuck by something.
I was squatting on the ground, checking whether there was a divine stone in the gravel. Suddenly, I felt that Ye Yue's dialect was gone in half. "What's wrong with you?"
"I seem to have found it." Ye Yue said in a very light voice.
"Finished? What did you find?" I didn't react for a moment, but two seconds later I immediately realized that Ye Yue was talking about the divine gem. "What? Have you found it? Where?"
Ye Yue carefully lifted off the rocks blocking the matter, then used his sword to open the outer rock layer, and then we saw a ridge-shaped corner with beautiful light.
"Slow down." I was afraid that Ye Yue would break the gem if he was too big.
Ye Yue replied indifferently: "The sword used a lot of strength just now. If it was really easy to break, it would probably be broken. If it wasn't broken, it would be very strong." Ye Yue put away his snake sword and stretched out a hand to me: "Give me eternity."
I quickly handed over Eternity, and Yeyue turned him into a dagger. Then she used it to gently cut the rocks on the periphery. Although Egypt seemed to be desert, yellow sand was not all about it. There was a small amount of soil and hard rock layers under the yellow sand. Our current location was their junction, so the peeling work was very troublesome.
Ye Yue carefully cleared the rocks around him, then grabbed the corners of the gem with his hand and shook them a few times. After trying it loosened, he opened the back a little bit and tried again. This time the effect was very good. He gently pulled the gem and fell down. However, there was a large piece of soil coming down with the gem. Ye Yue threw the soil away without caring, then lowered his body and took the gem to my ground. "It seems that's it."
"Haha, now you don't have to worry about being bullied by those gods in the future."
I was laughing proudly, and another piece of soil fell from the top of the cave, and it was a very wet mud that was almost the soft mud between the mud and the soil. The mud fell on my arm. I looked at it strangely, then looked up at the entrance of the cave. Just now, in order to dig out this gem, the range of our excavation seemed to be a little deeper. There was a large piece of soil missing from the top of the passage. As I looked up, another piece of mud fell from the top and fell to the ground with a snap.
As the mud fell to the ground, there were several slap sounds one after another, and several large pieces of mud fell down to the ground. But soon I found that something was wrong. The soil falling from it became increasingly thin, and the frequency was increasing. In the end, yellow mud water was almost flowing downward.
Ye Yue looked at me with a wry smile: "Can there be a river above us?"
There is indeed not a river above our heads, but it is not much different from that. The one above our heads is a lake, and it is a very large type. When we first drilled through that pocket and entered the forest area, it was actually a reminder. The only place where there is a forest in the desert is an oasis, and the oasis usually has a relatively large deep water lake. Now we are obviously just below the lake, and it seems that the passage has been leaked.
"They are here." A few dejected soldiers suddenly appeared in the depths of the passage, obviously they were the guards who had just gone after us. They must have discovered that Bai Lang and I disappeared and continued to search forward. Now they should have returned helplessly because they did not find us. They did not expect to meet us halfway.
"Run quickly." I pulled Ye Yue and ran towards the temple of the Sun God. It was not that I was afraid of the guards, but because this end was closer to the exit. It seemed that the top of the passage couldn't last long.
I didn't have time to look at the magical gem. Yeyue put it directly into his own storage ring. Bai Lang quickly ran over and carried me on his back, and then took the lead and ran towards the exit. Yeyue used her big tail and followed flexibly.
The guards behind did not care about the soil. They just chased us. In the already shaky passage, the vibration of so many people running at high speed made the soil above loosen. The yellow mud water became thinner and thinner, and finally turned into a turbid stream of water. The soil at the edge of the cave began to fall off in large pieces, and the speed of the water flow was constantly accelerating. When the guards passed by about halfway, the water flow had turned into a high-pressure column, but the soldiers obviously did not pay attention to it.
With a sudden bang, the rocks on the top of the passage completely collapsed. The tiny hole instantly turned into a huge perforation, and a large amount of lake water poured into the underground passage.
The priests at the exit of the passage got up from the ground for the second time. As soon as they rubbed their necks and adapted to the surrounding environment, they saw that in the passage in front, I rode on the white waves and ran towards me. One of them seemed to be the principal priest said viciously: "Haha, you dare to come back. I want you to be happy this time... look." His last word was so small that he could hardly hear it, because the loud noise in the passage had already made him feel a sense of crisis.
After Bailang and I turned around that corner, Ye Yue followed him, and then a white splash of water hit the wall with a bang and turned into countless pieces, but more water turned to this side and rushed towards the exit side along the passage.
As soon as the priests turned around, they were caught up by Hongshui and us. With a loud bang, a huge column of water led us, the priests and some guards to eject from the entrance of the passage, and jumped directly through the hall more than a hundred meters wide and flew out of the temple.
Some NPCs were preparing for sacrificial activities outside the temple, but unexpectedly, their great priests followed a few people of unknown origin and flew out of the hall with water columns. The people in the square outside the temple were instantly washed down by the flood, and various sacrificial utensils were sprinkled all over the ground. Fortunately, the water column stopped after spraying. The level of the lake was not higher than that of the temple, so the lake water would not all be sprayed out from here. Just now, it was just because the passage had just collapsed, and some lake water was sprayed out with the impact, so there was only one water column.
Chapter completed!
