Chapter 1206 Olympus Legacy

According to what Pierre said before, when you are trapped in a small village in the forest, the time flow of various things will fall into a very strange state. Some things will decay faster, while other things will show a state of stasis in time and space. , so what happens when the time and space distortion of the village suddenly disappears?

At present, it seems that these distorted time will be "compensated" immediately.

The three-hundred-year-old village instantly decayed into ashes, and the forest blocked outside the wall quickly occupied this once civilized soil. The villagers who had completely integrated with the village and became part of this magical system were Treated as dead objects: they were instantly compensated into time.

Pierre looked surprised and happy after seeing Hao Ren and his party. What happened just now shocked and horrified him. The sight of everything around him decaying instantly and the creaking and crushing forest made him almost commit the crime again. Had heart disease. The Wang brothers and Catherine beside him looked a lot more confused: these three people had been trapped in the village for so long that they almost lost the ability to think freely. What happened in the past few years was confusing to them. It was a chaotic dream, and even the memory before entering the dream seemed to have been lost a lot.

After hearing Pierre's explanation of what happened before, the Wang brothers looked unbelievable, and Catherine's eyes widened even more: she thought she had just set off from an expedition camp outside the forest. I'm going to collect data on animals and plants in this forest.

However, in the blink of an eye, everything has changed.

"Now that the curse in this place has disappeared, what are your plans next?" Hao Ren looked at Pierre and asked, "Also, have the three people behind you...all thought about the future?"

Obviously the Wang brothers and Catherine haven't thought about such far-reaching things, or even if they have thought about it, I'm afraid they don't have a clue: Such bizarre experiences have only been heard in fairy tales. Who knows what to do if they encounter it in real life? ah? And even the stories about gods and monsters don’t seem to mention how to deal with the aftermath of such a thing. Everyone has heard the story of Wang Zhilanke, but the story doesn’t seem to talk about the unlucky guy who let the immortal deceive him and lost a hundred years of time. How did I get my ID card replaced later...

However, Hao Ren felt that the situation of the three people in front of him was at least luckier than that of Wang Zhi who watched the immortals playing chess in the story: they had only been out of touch with the outside society for a few years to more than ten years, and they could basically resume production by finding someone who issued a fake certificate. …

"I really want to consider changing careers," Pierre said from the bottom of his heart, while nodding to Vivian, "Your pointers are very reasonable. With my physique and luck... if I continue like this, it will probably take five years." I will post the photos on the wall within a few days. As for these three friends... To use an old Eastern saying, meeting is fate. After all, we have been trapped together for so long. I will help them, at least let them return to their respective hometowns. Can live a normal life.”

Hao Ren felt relieved when he heard this, thinking that if Pierre was willing to take over such troublesome things, he would be relieved. However, he still asked curiously: "Do you have any connections? Are detectives in the spiritual world even concerned about this? It's okay for these two brothers. It seems that Catherine disappeared the year George W. Bush came to power. She disappeared for fifteen years and resumed production. It’s more difficult…”

Pierre smiled slightly: "The detectives in the spirit world also have their own network of contacts, and although there are few cases of mysterious disappearances and reappearance for many years, it is not without them. As long as their families are still there, everything will be easy to handle. And even if they encounter In the event of an unexpected situation, the worst case scenario would be to find someone to issue a false certificate for them..."

Hao Ren: "..."

After struggling for a long time, this is what the detective in front of me has to do?

"Okay, as long as you take care of yourself," Vivian waved her hand, "But if you really encounter difficulties, you can go to Athens, Greece, and draw a hexagram and eye pattern on any monument near the city center. Someone will come looking for you, and when the time comes, you can tell me my name and get some help from the Shadow Council."

Pierre was immediately moved. This was probably the first time he was about to come into contact with this level of supernatural power in so many years as a detective in the spirit world. Although he didn't know what the Shadow Council was, just hearing the name was enough. Make him excited. And when he was excited, Hesperus reminded him from the side: "By the way, there is something to pay attention to."

"Please speak." Pierre immediately responded with a correct attitude.

"When drawing patterns, just use clean water, don't use paint," Hesperius covered his head, "Last time, two idiots from the American Brotherhood used spray paint to draw joint codes on city monuments. We learned from the police. They were fished out by the police..."

Pierre: "..."

Hao Ren patted the spiritual detective on the shoulder: "Change your career as soon as possible. The daily life of these monsters is not as sophisticated as you think."

Pierre continued: "..."

After arranging the affairs of these "victims of the strange village", Hao Ren and the others did not leave in a hurry. Instead, they turned towards the overgrown village ruins and walked deeper into the desolation.

If you hadn't experienced it personally, it would be hard to imagine that this place was a village with hundreds of "populations" just a few hours ago. However, now, all you can find here are clumps of grass and shrubs, which have grown rapidly due to the distortion of time and space. The plants that came out are still in an unstable state. They continue to grow and wither at a speed that is almost visible to the naked eye. Under the cover of these plants, you can see the severely weathered remnants of the village: fragmented dead wood, and what were once used for paving. Gravel on the road.

Hathaway followed everyone in invisible form. She pointed the way for everyone based on her memory and the special identification skills under the vision of the undead. Soon, they arrived at a seemingly unremarkable depression.

As for Pierre and the other three, they wisely did not come to join in the fun: after a series of events, these people already knew that the front was not an area they should contact.

"Right here," Hathaway floated above the depression. Her voice could only be heard by Hao Ren and his party, "dig down."

Lily jumped in immediately.

The husky girl's claws flew, and the old soil and gravel were quickly thrown out of the pit. Within a moment, a huge pit appeared in front of everyone. Then, Lily's claws seemed to hit something, and she let out a "ding" sound. "A soft sound.

The dog girl had a keen sense and immediately braked in an emergency, otherwise no matter what was at the bottom of the pit, it would probably be cut into pieces by her strange strength and her claw blades that cut iron like mud.

Vivian summoned a swarm of bats to fly down, and soon, with the cooperation of the bat swarm and Lily, a rather heavy-looking black metal box about one cubic meter square was lifted up.

This metal box has been buried underground for more than two centuries, but it is still intact and strong. The dark black box has a metallic luster, and every surface is engraved with mysterious ancient runes and patterns. With the light and shadow among the trees, Swaying, the ancient runes on the metal box seemed to come alive, constantly reflecting various brilliance.

"This is what Heracles brought out from Olympus," Hathaway said softly. "He regarded it as life. This was the only 'relic' left to him by his majestic father - —Although these things are just his burden."

"How should I open this box?" Hao Ren curiously studied the structure of the box. He found that this thing did not have a clear up, down, left, and right, and there seemed to be no lid or lock - this thing should be a delicate mechanism container. , it is probably impossible to open it like an ordinary box.

"He had anticipated his own death, so he told us how to open the container," Hathaway slowly landed on the ground, her spiritual fingers gently sliding across the surface of the ancient metal box, and the ancient symbols The text began to light up and disappear regularly under her one-by-one contact, "However, I can only unlock the runes here, and then it needs a crucial key."

"Key?" Hao Ren and Vivian said in unison.

"The blood of a descendant of Olympus," Hathaway looked at Hesperus, "Zeus personally designed this container and restricted it to be opened only by descendants of Olympus to prevent these precious information from being opened. Falling into the hands of outsiders. Hercules also mentioned this restriction when he handed us the opening method. He knew that there are still some survivors of the Olympus family in this world, so please us. If necessary, we hope that we He was able to hand this thing over to his tribe. But you also know what happened after that: the situation was out of control, and we failed to fulfill his instructions. But now, this sacred agreement can finally be fulfilled."

Hearing Hathaway's words, Hesperius's expression gradually became serious.

She took a deep breath, walked forward with an almost solemn expression, cut her finger and squeezed out a drop of blood and smeared it on the metal box.

Vivian took Hesperius's finger and put it in her mouth to suck on it, watching the changes in the metal box as she sucked it. Hesperius had a strange expression on the spot: "...What are you doing?"

"Don't waste it," Vivian said matter-of-factly, "I've lost a lot of magic power, so take the time to replenish some nutrition. By the way, you've been a little angry recently, right?"

Everyone: "..."

At this moment, a soft sound suddenly came from the metal box, and the complex mechanism container finally opened gradually.
