Chapter 625 Giant Palace and Stone Throne

"Bli's Frost Grotto" - This is a huge and deep ice and snow cave located in the center of Vatnajökull, Iceland. According to some documents, many years ago, this place was one of the few places in the world where frost giants lived.

And the name "Buli" is rumored to belong to the leader of the Frost Giant tribe who led the tribe to migrate here.

Of course, the so-called "Frost Giants" are actually not much different from other giants, it's just because they live in different areas that there is an extra word in their titles.

However, only a few people know that there was actually a group of wizards and giants living here in peace and hiding from the world.

At this moment, little Ensi was slowly walking through this surprisingly spacious snow cave with a flaming torch. Except for the fire, there was only endless darkness in his field of vision. If he hadn't understood that he should walk along the rock wall on one side of the cave, he might not even know the direction now.

"It turns out... if the cave is too dark and too big, it's no different from walking in a wilderness!" While suppressing his uneasiness, Ensi couldn't help sighing, "If you can see the stars and the moon, then It's more like..."

As he thought about it, he walked forward cautiously. The sound of the wind coming from an unknown direction could be heard in the ear, whimpering like a wounded beast, which made the heart chill even worse.

Because there is almost no reference, so whether it is "how long" or "how far" has been traveled, the concepts of time and distance gradually become more and more blurred in Ens's mind. And what blurred along with it was the fear in his heart.

An unchanging environment will always make people feel paralyzed, and sometimes even make people forget their fear.

"At least, nothing has been encountered or happened so far." In the darkness, little Ensi held a torch and whispered to himself softly, and his voice kept echoing in the snow cave, leaving him far away. go.

I don't know how long it took, but when Ensi felt that his steps were getting heavier and heavier, so heavy that he could barely move, he suddenly stopped walking.

"What... is there in front?"

The range that the torch can illuminate is quite limited. Since he can already perceive the obstacle in front of him, it means that he is very close to that obstacle.

Sure enough, when he took a few steps forward, a rock wall with a little blue color suddenly appeared in front of the original pitch black. Look at the nearly vertical rock wall, where there are obvious traces of masonry. This is undoubtedly a high rock wall with traces of artificial piles...

No, this may be an extremely large building!

Just after Little Ins moved laterally along the wall for a certain distance, he suddenly saw an astonishingly thick rock pillar. The surface of the nearly ice-blue rock pillar is only decorated with simple and rough vertical stripes. Even though he can only see the bottom part no matter how high he raises the torch, the size of this part alone is enough to make one's heart ache. Daydreaming.

"What is this place? Is it a house? Is this really where Mom's ancestors lived?"

Ens continued to walk along the wall in a state of uncertainty, passing similar rock pillars one after another, and the undulating frozen soil under his feet turned into a flat stone brick floor... Finally, unconsciously , Unexpected changes appeared on the wall.

On the vertical wall made of large rock bricks, some nicks have appeared since some time, and every stroke is as messy and clumsy as if it was a child's painting. It might be a mural, but because the format is too large, it doesn't make any sense to just peek at a corner of it.

But when Ensi continued to walk for a while, he finally discovered something was wrong.

"Is the wall... tilted?"

In fact, it is impossible for him to notice the change in the angle of the wall midway when there is no reference object before and after. But now there are scratches on the base of the wall that are getting bigger and bigger.

Clearly gave him a message - the wall has been moved inwards at a certain angle!

And when he walked forward for a certain distance, when a longitudinal gap with the width of two people suddenly appeared in front of him, he realized that this section of "wall" might be a frighteningly large stone gate at all.

In fact, there has never been a shortage of explorers in this world since ancient times, and naturally people have come to check places like this. And when the magic world has gradually become peaceful under the development of history, the high-efficiency investigation team with an official nature has never reduced the exploration and discovery of many ancient mysterious areas.

Of course, the ancient ruins of this frost giant tribe have been explored many times by wizards from all over the world.

However, the so-called magic has opportunities hidden in wonder. From ancient times to the present, many legendary stories have proved this point.

Just as Ensi was probing the torch and gently stepping one of his feet into the darkness behind the gap, two icy blue flames in midair were suddenly awakened by some force.

Immediately afterwards, it was about two or three seconds! More blue flames lit up one after another, lined up left and right in the sky, and continued to extend deeper.

In the blink of an eye, the space behind the crack suddenly shone brightly.

It wasn't until this time that Ensi realized that this was a huge palace that only appeared in some fairy tale books. In this palace, stone bricks larger than his people were laid on a solid ground according to specific rules, and a large number of vertical rock pillars that I had seen before stood neatly on both sides, and the sudden light before The blue flames that ignited are actually large braziers hanging on those rock pillars.

And in the deepest part of the palace, three thrones, one big, two small, and chiseled like knives and axes, stood quietly, exuding a barbaric and cold ancient atmosphere.

No, if you look carefully, you can find that there are not only three thrones in that row!

On both sides of the largest stone seat in the center, there are two stone chairs with high backs, one left and one right sitting on the ground. It's just because they are so disparate in size from the other three stone seats that are as big as houses, so Ensi didn't notice them when he first glanced at them.

As he continued to walk deeper into the hall, the five thrones with huge differences in size were getting closer and closer to him, and he was able to confirm that the two smaller stone chairs should be the size of human seats.

"What the hell is this place?"

After walking in this huge and inexplicably spacious palace for a while, he couldn't help muttering. And it was probably because the excessive spatial contrast made him inadvertently feel awed, so that he murmured surprisingly softly, as if he was worried that something terrible would be brought about by his own voice.

To be honest, such a tall and huge seat has long been beyond the cognitive scope of Xiao Ensi. Even the giants I saw in an old picture book at home when I was a child, probably can't compare with the throne in front of me, let alone the creatures that can sit on it.

After all, are there really big guys who can use these chairs?

After a long time, when the shock and awe in Ensi's heart slowly subsided, his innate curiosity took over again. While subconsciously guessing whether the two smaller stone chairs were related to his mother's ancestors, he once again took a stagnant step, dragging his tired little body towards the one on the left.

If I had to say it, it was because there was really nothing to see in this rough rock palace.

Although the huge size difference can shock people at the first time, after a long time, you will find that this palace has neither exquisite decoration nor many specific traces left behind. Apart from grandeur and monotony, there are basically no other words to describe it.

What is worth seeing is actually the two small stone seats with relatively fine carvings.

If you get closer, you can see that the stone chair on the left is engraved with a large number of strange symbols. From the stone seat under the chair to the front and back of the chair back, the surface is covered by densely arranged symbols. .

Little Ensi naturally couldn't understand the boring symbols alone, and he quickly lost interest in this stone chair. But he didn't know that this stone chair once had quite a lot of academic discussion in the magic world, because it was full of different ancient runes.

After the ancient magic writers at that time went through a detailed chronology, they also jointly published a paper on the origin of ancient runes. Of course, that paper was ultimately quickly forgotten due to lack of evidence.

Little Ins ignored the stone seat that was easy to suffer from trypophobia after watching too much. After bypassing the giant throne in the middle, he came to another stone chair.

Compared with the stone seat just now, this one will obviously attract children's attention easily.

The base of this stone chair is impressively two wolves of different shapes. They leaned on each other, squatting under the stone chair, one lying on the ground with its head on the side, the other raised its head and shouted to the sky, and the stone seat on it was carried on its back.

On the armrests on both sides of the stone seat, there are engraved flying horses with wings, majestic palaces, and various lightning bolts with distinct branches.

As for the tall chair back with the largest surface area, it is surprisingly simple, with only two flying birds.

Little Ins looked left and right at these delicate and lifelike reliefs with many patterns, and looked at them very carefully. While looking at them, he wondered whether there really were these strange and fascinating creatures in this world.

Until he walked around the stone seat and came to the back of it, he found that there was a strange eye engraved on the back of the chair, which looked somewhat frightening.

However, just when he was about to go back to the front of the stone seat, that eye suddenly flickered.
