Chapter 1801 The Cage of the Temples

"It's true. The real entrance to the Holy Tower is the giant spirit." Leo had just escaped from the illusion of the giant monument maze when he heard the excited voice of Rogue Trader Loki.

Leo ignored Rogue Trader Loki's excited shouts, but raised his head and looked at the scene in front of him. He saw that the two of them were no longer in a city, but in a void.

There are thousands of land fragments of different sizes around it, and these land fragments are suspended in the air in a spherical shape. In the middle of this void sphere surrounded by countless land masses, is a tower composed of various wedge-shaped bodies.

The tower is not static, but is constantly rotating with the center as its axis, just like a clock.

There are some protruding platforms at the junctions of the wedge-shaped bodies on the outer wall of the tower. On these platforms, you can see a large number of Valkyries standing there, but they are different from the Valkyries Leo saw before.

The Valkyries are all in complete humanoid form, with human bodies, human looks, and wearing human armor. The only difference is that they all have a pair of wings. From the appearance point of view, they are just like the Valkyries recorded in the books.

Kiri is exactly the same.

However, these Valkyries are not the focus of Leo's attention at the moment. He only pays attention to two things now. One thing is the humanoid reliefs on the outer wall of this holy tower. All the reliefs are lifelike, and even their expressions can be seen.

You can see them clearly, as if they were transformed from real people, and every relief sculpture has the same shape extending out from the inside of the wall, as if trying to escape from the outer wall of the tower.

And Leo could clearly feel that the bust reliefs on these outer walls all contained extremely powerful energy fluctuations. The weakest among them were at the level of a sixth-level psyker, while the strongest ones could even reach eight levels.

The level of a super psyker, that is to say, the level of a demigod.

"Loki, where is Loki's remaining soul?" Trader Loki quickly stepped forward and walked to the edge of the land beneath their feet. He pointed at a statue full of pain on the suspended tower and shouted loudly.

The statue pointed out by Rogue Trader Loki was one of several statues that Leo felt possessed the intensity of demigod energy, and one of the other statues had an energy similar to that of God's Punishment Thunder, even if it was

Even though he was imprisoned in that statue, he could still see electric sparks coming out of the statue. He thought it must be the statue of Thor, God of Thunder.

However, compared to these humanoid reliefs, Leo was more concerned about the two huge pieces of rubble suspended at both ends of the suspended tower.

Although the two pieces of gravel are two different stones from the appearance, the only characteristic is that they are a bit large, but compared with the floating land fragments around them, their size seems so inconspicuous, even if they are placed on this high

On the platforms at both ends of the tower, its size is still so inconspicuous.

However, even so, after Leo came to this void, the first thing he paid attention to was the two stones, because he felt the energy fluctuations of the Stone Throne on those two stones. It was just the Stone Throne among the two stones.

The power does not seem to be very strong, because in his opinion, the power of the Stone Throne contained in these two huge stones is not even as powerful as the fragment of the Stone Throne he obtained at the bottom of the lake.

However, no matter how weak the power of the Stone Throne contained in these two pieces of rubble is, it belongs to the power of the Stone Throne after all, and judging from various signs, this tower should have been specially built for these two stones.

Because the tower can guide the power in the stone fragments at both ends to circulate with each other, and the power of the cycle is amplified through certain devices inside the tower, causing it to produce very powerful effects, such as the statues on the outer walls of the tower.

Generally speaking, the so-called remaining souls are bound by the power of the amplified stone throne, just like the stone pillar square owned by Leo.

At this time, one end of the rotating tower happened to pass through the fragment of land where Leo and the others were, and the statues with the strongest energy fluctuations were located on the outer wall at the top of this end, very close to each other, and Trader Loki immediately

As if he had received some kind of revelation, he covered his head and knelt on the ground, moaning in pain, with a crazy look on his face, and repeatedly murmured to himself: "I see it, I see it."

Here we are! So that’s it, I know, I know my mission!”

Seeing Rogue Trader Loki sinking into a state of madness, Leo did not intervene to rescue him, because judging from Rogue Trader Loki's situation, he should have resonated with Loki's incomplete soul that was bound to the outer wall of the tower.

, the new memory fragments obtained.

Sure enough, after a period of painful reaction, Trader Loki quickly returned to normal. However, the painful reaction just now consumed a lot of his energy, leaving him lying on the ground, panting heavily, and slowly recovering the energy he had consumed.

After a while, he changed his posture and sat on the ground. He turned to look at Leo, who had been standing silently from the beginning. He hesitated for a moment, with a strong look of scruples flashing in his eyes, and then said in a deep voice.

He said: "You must have a lot of questions in your mind, and I can answer them one by one now."

Seeing Rong Merchant Loki suddenly looking like he wanted to confess everything to him, Leo not only smiled, but he also didn't show any look of distrust, but spoke very directly and asked: "There should be

There are other ways to escape from that maze of illusions called the Giant Monument, right?"

"Yes, according to my exploration, there are at least four ways to get out of there safely." Rogue Trader Loki answered Leo's inquiry with a magnanimous look, and then continued to explain: "But I have none of those four ways.

I have tried many times, but I have never been able to reach the real holy tower in this place, so I chose to try the most dangerous method in the legend. But I didn’t expect that the legend is true. It can only be opened through the giant spirit.

The right entrance."

"How many times have you tried to capture the giant spirit?" Leo asked again.

"I can't remember, there must be thousands of times!" Trader Loki shook his head and said: "But those failed, only this time it succeeded."

"So many times? It seems like you have been here for a long time?" Leo said in a deep voice.

"It is indeed a long time. I have forgotten how long it was. It may be a thousand years, or it may be longer." Loki, the trader, showed a slightly confused look and said, "But there is one advantage in being here, that is, there is no

I will grow old, just like time is completely still. Only when I leave here and go to other worlds, time will start running again, so if it is not necessary, I will try to shorten the time in other worlds, but even so, I

He is still more than ten years older than when he came here." As he spoke, he turned to look at the rotating tower and said: "But it doesn't matter, as long as I fuse the incomplete soul of the ancient god Loki, I can get a part of it.

The power of the gods restores youth and never ages.”

After hearing this, Leo speculated: "You should have come to this so-called Loki Hall of Valor on your own initiative, instead of just falling here after an ordinary exploration as you said at the beginning?"

"Yes." Trader Loki nodded and said: "Since I was born, some pictures and some memories that do not belong to me have often appeared in my mind. Everyone thinks that I am a madman, but I know that I am not. I think

I wanted to know the answer, so I followed what I remembered and came here.”

"You knew from the beginning that this was not some Loki Hall of Valor, right?" Leo continued to ask.

Trader Loki shook his head and said, "No, I always thought this was Loki's Hall of Valor before, but until just now."

Leo asked: "I guess you should know where this place is now?"

"Yes, I just knew it." Trader Loki nodded, then paused for a moment, then continued: "This is the pantheon of temples, the pantheon of ancient gods." As he said that, he pointed to the tower and said:

"And that is the World Tree."

Leo's expression looked very calm, and he did not express any opinion on this amazing information. He just motioned for Rogue Trader Loki to continue speaking.

On the contrary, Rogue Trader Loki was a little surprised by Leo's calm attitude. In his opinion, Leo should be more or less surprised after hearing this information, and should not have such a calm attitude.

Although Leo's reaction surprised him, he did not stop, but continued: "The ancient gods discovered a long time ago that this land contains mysterious power. This power can make time stop. They have been

They all wanted to master this power, but there was no result. However, they took advantage of the power here to get a glimpse of the future, and predicted the arrival of Ragnarok in advance, so they gathered everyone before Ragnarok arrived.

The temple moved here and made some preparations for future resurrection, such as building a world tree for the souls of the gods to live in. After the world tree was built, they collected part of their souls here and put them in their bodies.

The divine blood spreads out, and anyone with the divine blood will be guided by them to this place, and will eventually become their resurrected body."

As he said that, he looked at Leo, as if he wanted to see some emotional fluctuations on Leo's face, but the result still disappointed him, Leo still behaved calmly.

However, he didn't know that after listening to his narration, some associations emerged in Leo's mind.

In the Earth Federation, there is a lot of scientific research on uploading human consciousness data, cloning body regeneration, etc., and many results have indeed appeared, but there is always a big gap between these results and the goals that related research wants to achieve. In the end, these

Many projects remain in a state of limbo.

And now from Rogue Trader Loki's words, Leo feels that perhaps this Asgard inherited from the earth's civilization may have developed results that can upload human consciousness or soul in the form of data to a device for storage.

, and then transmitted to a suitable parasite at the right time to complete a resurrection in a certain sense.

This method has the same effect as the blood consciousness body Leo encountered before. Although the method is different, the final resurrection effect is very similar, and in Leo's view, the so-called pantheon of gods in front of him not only serves as a transmission

The function of the incomplete soul of the god may also have other functions, such as introducing power to allow the life form of the parasite to complete one or several evolutions in a short period of time.

However, Leo can feel that there may be some mistakes in the plans of the so-called gods in Asgard, because from what he sees now, the tower in front of him is called the World Tree in Rogue Trader Loki's mouth.

Something should have happened that was beyond the expectations of the Asgardians. At least Leo could be sure that the so-called temples should not be the broken scene in front of him at the beginning, and in his opinion, the tower in front of him was not so much

It is some kind of device that stores consciousness or soul, but it is more like a prison for these conscious souls.

"What are you going to do now?" After Leo thought for a moment, he did not express his opinion, but asked Rogue Trader Loki.

"I will find a way to fly over and touch the statue that stores the soul of the god Loki." Rogue Trader Loki pointed to Loki's statue and said, "But those Valkyries will definitely stop me, so I hope you can help me stop it.

them."

"What good will this do to me?" Leo asked again.

Rogue Trader Loki thought about it seriously and realized that he really couldn't come up with anything that would attract Leo.

When he first met Leo, he only regarded Leo as an ordinary adventurer or treasure hunter who had some extraordinary power, so he felt that he had many valuable things that he could exchange for Leo.

However, with everything he experienced later, he found that the power of the man in front of him was powerful enough to rival the ancient gods in his memory, so everything he had prepared before was useless.

After repeated thinking and no answer, Rogue Trader Loki had no choice but to throw the question back to Leo and said: "What do you want? As long as I can get it, I will give it to you."

"I don't have anything I want for the time being," Leo shook his head, and when Trader Loki showed disappointment, he added: "The terms of my assistance to you can be kept temporarily until you accept Loki's inheritance.

, let’s discuss how much we should pay, what do you think?”

"Okay, okay! That's it." Loki, the trader, immediately agreed upon hearing this. In his opinion, he didn't suffer at all from this approach.

Seeing that Trader Loki agreed, Leo did not ask the other party to sign any agreement. It seemed as if he believed in the other party's integrity, and then indicated that the other party could start at any time.

Rogue Trader Loki didn't waste time and immediately took off the bulky spacesuit he was wearing. Then he took out a close-fitting combat suit specially designed for fighter pilots on space battleships from his pocket, and then took out another suit with it.

Wearing the matching energy generator and a set of personal flying devices on the body, he then looked at Leo. After seeing Leo indicating that it was okay to start, he quickly ran to the edge of the land, then jumped out, and at the same time activated the aircraft located on the ground.

The small engines of the flying device on its four limbs rushed towards the target.
