Chapter 143 The Mysterious World

Chapter 143: The World of Mystery

"Hey, Master, are you coming in too?" I heard Sayoko's voice before I even got up from the ground, and then I realized that the place I was scratching didn't seem right. Although this ruins is large, the internal environment is generally similar. There are floors and walls made of wet large stones everywhere, and a large number of moss plants. In short, it gives people a tropical feel. It feels like the humidity in the rain forest coupled with the ancient buildings that have been in disrepair for a long time, but the situation is different now. The ground has become very dry since I fell in, and the material of the ground has changed from uneven and cracked rock to a material that 'touches' like artificial rubber. If this material is not brushed onto the ground in a 'liquid' form like paint, it must be formed in one piece. Anyway, I didn't see any seams.

When Sha Yezi saw me lying on the ground and studying it, he immediately explained: "The ground here is all made of this material. I just materialized myself and tested it, and it seems to have very good elasticity."

"Hey, it's really true!" I tried to press down hard with my fingers, and it really sank into the ground a little bit. Although this thing is generally very hard, it does have a certain degree of elasticity. . After I got up from the ground, my attention naturally left the ground, but then I discovered the special feature of the wall. The walls here are all made of a metal-like material, and the silver-white surface looks very modern, but... "Is this what you just left?"

"No." Sayoko pointed to the same scars on the wall in front of the passage and said: "There are traces of battles everywhere here, and there are some skeletons in the front room, but the souls have dissipated, and I can't help them. There’s so much information gained from those skeletons.”

This mysterious place is simply a mystery within a mystery. I haven't even finished exploring the huge ruins outside, but here is an ultra-thin space, and the environment here doesn't look like something from the Magic Age at all, but instead looks like the internal structure of a spaceship. But if we say that this place is the crystallization of technological civilization, then why are the walls all covered with scars caused by cold weapon fighting? Even if you don't take into account the huge mystery of the type of civilization here, the traces of battle here and the skeletons mentioned by Sayoko are enough to give people a headache.

"How much did you explore ahead?"

"Only a small part. The inside is not much smaller than the ruins outside. There are side roads everywhere. I was afraid of getting lost, so I didn't dare to go too far. It's just that I couldn't go back to that door. I think we were probably trapped. Trapped here.”

"No, I already know the way out. Let's explore here first, and I will take you out after we finish exploring here. As for now... Ling, Xiaochun, Yeyue, Wang, Bailang, and Fei Dart, come out and explore the way together."

As we moved forward, the passage quickly came to an end. There were shocking huge cuts everywhere along the way. Looking at the traces of metal rewinding on the surface of the passage, it was obviously traces caused by heavy weapons such as axes. Entering the room at the end of the passage We saw a mark that looked like a shoe print on the door. The enemies of the owner here obviously broke in through the door when they came in, because the door we saw when we arrived here was actually in the room, and it was lying on the wall opposite the door frame, and it was very severely deformed.

"It looks like there was a huge battle here!" Xiaochun sighed.

The king reached out and 'touched' the crack in the metal. "This is not a new injury. There is obvious rust on the cross section. It should have been around for a long time."

"Is this the skeleton you are talking about?" Ling reached out and grabbed a skull from above. However, this was not the skull of a humanoid creature. Although many humanoid creatures have obvious differences in appearance, the shape of the skull is in the appearance. The difference is not very obvious. The thing in front of me is obviously not a humanoid creature, and it still needs to be confirmed whether it even belongs to a mammal, because the skull looks very much like a reptile skull. The long and narrow upper and lower jaws are connected with thick and sharp teeth, the relatively small brain capacity and the thick nasal passages all indicate that this is a savage creature, at least they are very powerful and not very intelligent. However, although the skull of this thing does not look like a humanoid creature, its lower limbs are quite similar to humans. This guy has an upright body, and the arm bone structure is similar to that of humans, but there are only four fingers on each hand, and the fingertips have very long claws. The structure of this guy's torso is very similar to that of a human being, except that it is slightly thicker, but this guy's lower limbs are very special. This thing has four legs, and its structure is similar to the leg bones of a large reptile. It is relatively short and very thick.

"It doesn't look like a normal creature," the king said.

"It should be said that it is not like the creatures we are used to." Yeyue swam to another skeleton and said, "It seems that all the skeletons here belong to this kind of creature."

After hearing this, Ling looked at the other skeletons, and then said: "It seems that the owner here won the final victory, but they also suffered heavy casualties."

"Why do you say that?" I was very curious how Ling came to such a conclusion.

"This is very simple. You can figure it out with some reasoning. The person who built such a large ruin is obviously not this kind of brainless creature, because the intelligence of this kind of thing is not that high, so these skeletons are all offensive Square. The loser on the battlefield has no time to deal with the corpses, so the one who handles the corpses must be the winning side, and usually we will choose to deal with the corpses of our companions first. There are only corpses of the attacking side, which means that the owner here will The bodies of our own people have been disposed of. But this is their territory. If they did not suffer heavy losses after their victory, they should also dispose of the corpses of their enemies after disposing of their own bodies. The reason why so many are left behind The skeletons only show that they had no time to deal with the corpses of the enemy. So I say that the masters here won the final victory, but they themselves suffered heavy casualties."

"I think your inference may not be correct." Xiaochun suddenly said: "What if the attacker here is a multi-racial mixed formation? Just like the forces such as the Dark Temple and the Light Temple do not have only one species, the builders here and the destroyers are not necessarily a single-race force. However, I agree with your inference that these skeletons should belong to the attackers, because if the defenders fail, the attackers will have enough time to deal with all the corpses, and they will not be left with just this The corpses of a race are left alone, and if the attacker fails, the inference will be as you said before.”

"We will talk about these things later. Now I just want to know whether there are any traces of life in this place. Also, whether this ghost thing is a mobile fortress."

"I think one of your wishes will come true soon." The king suddenly threw his sword away with a squeak, and the sword penetrated directly through the ceiling above his head, and then we heard a loud noise. There was a loud scream, accompanied by the sound of something leaving quickly.

Yeyue quickly swam right below the spot where the king's sword pierced, and then used her tail to send her body to the ceiling. Several rays of sword light flashed through, and a big hole immediately appeared in the ceiling above his head. Yeyue put her head in to take a look, then grabbed the king's sword and stepped out again. "At least now we know that there is still life here, and that thing obviously has some intelligence. He should have been monitoring us just now."

The king took his sword from Yeyue, then dipped his finger into the blood on the blade and put it into his mouth to taste it. "This is a highly intelligent creature. The strength of his soul exceeds that of ordinary angels and demons. He should have a strong intelligence."

Generally speaking, the lower the intelligence of the creature, the weaker the soul. If this thing has a soul that is stronger than angels and demons, it at least means that the intelligence level of this thing is not low. However, there is an exception to the above situation, and that is humans. Humans are a species with surprisingly high intelligence but weak souls. This is currently considered a special case, and no creatures similar to humans have yet been discovered.

"Do you think he is the builder here?" Yeyue asked. "The passage above looks like a ventilation duct. Creatures that are not familiar with such a complex environment cannot use it to escape."

The king followed up and said: "The fact that that thing was able to avoid my sudden attack shows that it is not very powerful, but that it did not dare to confront us head-on, but chose to run away, which shows that their overall strength is not as good as ours, or not much higher, so We don't dare to confront them head-on. I think since they are afraid of us, we don't need to be too careful. We should be able to find that guy if we just rush over."

"No." I said directly: "No matter what the situation, you still have to be careful. Dart, you go in through the vent to track the enemy. The enemy is bleeding. Your nose shouldn't be lost, right?"

The dart responded by turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the vent, while we followed the passage below. Because the dart tracks the opponent's blood in the ventilation duct, we can know roughly which direction the opponent is running. If we encounter a side road or something, we can just turn in the corresponding direction and we will not lose him. Soon the dart sent a signal that the target was found, and I quickly activated telepathic contact. Through the narration of the dart, we learned that there is more than one target. The target that eavesdropped on our conversation before was not seriously injured and is now receiving treatment from his companions.

According to the coordinates provided by the dart, we quickly chased the opponent's hiding place, but we ran into trouble just after we rushed into the opponent's hiding place. The target in front of us is a group of creatures wearing black cloaks and floating in the air. They look like a group of great lichs. Of course, we will not think that these guys are really great lichs, because if these guys are really great lichs, , then we should be the ones running away. But the problem now is not the appearance of the other party, but that each of them is holding a one-to-one scale doll in their hands. It’s just that the appearance of these dolls is strange, because those dolls are actually mine and Yeyue’s. look.

"Are these guys going to use witchcraft?"
