Chapter 110 Sea of Insects
"What's going on?" Ende's face was as gloomy as water, and he frowned slightly at Barbara.
Barbara seemed not to hear the question, but just raised her hand to carefully examine the relief in front of her. Ende's eyes were sharp, and then he returned to normal, and cast his eyes on the relief.
This relief is an angel with wings on his back, beautifully carved, lifelike, and even every hair is clearly visible. This angel holds a long sword. However, the long sword has lost about one-third of the blade, as if it pierced straight into the void.
Ende looked carefully for a moment, and his brows frowned tightly. He did not see Lanwu dragging Gross and Claudia straight through the relief and disappearing. He heard the movement behind him, and when he turned around, he saw his wife rushing to the relief like an arrow.
"There is a secret passage or a secret room here." Barbara retracted her hand, her eyes were very confused.
This relief really exists, not an illusion created by magic. The place where her hand touched was cold and damp, which was in line with the damp and cold environment of the underground temple. But she clearly saw that the God-Blessed One dragged the two people into the relief and disappeared.
There was no movement to open the mechanism, and there was no sign of using magic. If this was not an ancient magic trap, then the only explanation was that there was a special space behind the relief. It was either a secret passage leading to the treasure house, or a secret room, or even the location of the treasure house.
Ende frowned even more after hearing Barbara's explanation. He raised his hand and flicked it around the relief. The place where he touched was indeed hard stone. Looking closely, it was smooth everywhere, without a single gap. Obviously, this stone wall was polished from a whole piece of rock.
There was something strange.
This thought flashed through Ende's mind at the first time. He had forgotten Lan Wu, the God-Blessed One who had a great influence on the future of the Dark Raven. In his eyes, there was only the relief in front of him, or the secret passage that might exist behind the relief.
Rogue Camp is the key development area in the Dark Raven's future plan. Lan Wu, as an important figure who has risen rapidly in the Rogue Camp, must be guaranteed to be safe before this. However, the emergence of this Death Temple gave him a second choice.
As a major battlefield in the Original Sin War, Lugaoin has countless ancient ruins. However, after thousands of years, most of the ancient ruins have been buried in the vast desert Gobi. Successive generations of Jehain have made Lugaoin develop rapidly by constantly excavating ancient ruins, and it has become one of the most important city-states of mankind.
The Dark Raven has only been established for a few decades, but it does not prevent them from knowing the secrets of Lugaoin, or human development. Lugaoin has a large population and monopolizes most of the ruins. The members of the Dark Raven are far inferior to Lugaoin, and only a few temples built by the Zakarum Church have been discovered so far. These temples only worship the sacred springs or other things that were blessed by the church. The Dark Raven has made very little profit from them.
The ruins in front of us are completely different.
This is the ruins of Nifl. It is far from comparable to those temples that are only used for worship. Since he learned that the families of Lu Gaoyin jointly excavated the ruins, he has made a decision. Just at this time, the envoy of Ruhadi brought a deal, and he took the opportunity to accept the task, intending to catch the team in one fell swoop, take the ruins for himself, and take Lan Wu, the God of Grace, away.
So, the five strongest men in the Dark Crows went out and successfully wiped out the existence of this coalition. But he didn't expect that his lover Suna was disfigured by the skeleton mage summoned by the God of Grace at some point. In anger, fortunately, his wife accidentally captured the God of Grace and the Lu Gaoyin people with the ruins map.
But now, the God of Grace actually knows the secret passage in the Temple of Death.
This must be a ruins containing a large number of treasures.
The intelligence collected over the past few decades shows that any abnormal place with mysterious secret passages and other abnormal places will allow Lu Gaoyin to obtain a large number of ancient treasures. For example, the Tomb of Tal Rasha.
According to legend, when the Horadrim trapped the demon Baal, Talrasha, the most outstanding mage in the tribe, resolutely used his own body as a container and used the broken soul stone to seal the demon Baal in his body.
The power of the demon is far beyond the ability of humans to contend with. Talrasha knew that his life was coming to an end. In order to prevent the resurrection of the demon Baal, he used his powerful magic power to open up a special space and gathered all the power of the Horadrim to build seven ancient tombs in it. He only hoped that when the ancient tombs were discovered, humans would be prevented from accidentally releasing the demon Baal.
However, although Talrasha and other members of the Horadrim tribe had a complete plan, they underestimated the power of humans. The Canyon of the Special Space Warlock was discovered by that generation of Jhein, which opened the prelude to the excavation of the ancient tomb.
A large number of ancient treasures that Talrasha deliberately left behind were excavated, which made Lugain develop rapidly. And one day, a mage accidentally used a staff to open the mechanism and opened the secret room that sealed Baal.
Tal Rasha's body could not withstand the invasion of time. The demon Baal took the opportunity to use the powerful force to open the seal to break the seal and escape, and summoned Duriel, the lord of pain.
The legend ends here. But he learned about it from an ancient scroll he got occasionally. At that time, the demon god Baal was resurrected and led Duriel and his demon army to wreak havoc on Lugoin, attracting the archangel Tyrael. Under the leadership of the Archangel Tyrael, Duriel was temporarily forcibly sent away. The demon god Baalze Tyrael escaped when being dragged by Durael, escaping Tyrael's pursuit. Archangel Tyrell felt that Lu Gaoyin suffered heavy losses, and took action to assist that generation of Jehaine in rebuilding Lu Gaoyin.
After obtaining Archangel Tyrell and a large number of treasures in the ancient tomb, Lu Gaoyin was quickly reborn in the ruins and stood in the desert again.
The existence of a secret chamber in the ancient tomb of Tarasha set the tone for Lu Gaoyin's rapid development. There is a secret passage here, and it is the remains of Nifl, the most outstanding alchemist of the Horadrim clan...
As soon as the two parties contacted each other, his heart became hot. He knew that this time might be the opportunity for Dark Crow to become the Sixth Pole of Humanity. If this goal can be achieved, a mere divine benefactor is nothing. A mere Rogge camp is nothing.
"Look." Ende ordered decisively, taking the lead in carefully checking the surroundings for possible mechanisms.
With an order, Suna and Vinia started searching. Barbara looked on coldly and did not take action. She knew it was a waste of effort. She saw clearly that Lan Wu had no chance of opening any mechanism through this stone wall. Then the only explanation is that there is a necessary condition for the secret of this stone wall.
The bloodline of a divine benefactor?
Barbara came up with this idea immediately. Using this to explain, it just explains the secret of why Lan Wu opened the mechanism and walked directly through the stone wall without any means.
If that were the case, even if the stone wall was torn down, there would still be no so-called mechanism.
While the three of them were busy looking for clues, Hank ran back cursing. He grabbed a sandworm larvae that was tightly clamping its cheek with one hand and squeezed it hard. With a snap, the sandworm larvae suddenly burst out of yellow-green mucus and released its claws like iron pincers.
"Damn, there are so many bugs down there." Hank slammed the body of the sandworm larvae onto the ground and roared angrily, "I hate bugs."
"Insects?" Barbara's expression changed slightly. Of all demons, only insect demons are the most disgusting. They may not have powerful magic power, but they always win with numbers.
With a glance, her expression changed again. Although the sandworm larvae was crushed alive by Hank, the pair of claws had already revealed its identity. The strength of sandworms lies in their sheer numbers.
This insect demon can spew deadly venom and lay eggs on the spot at any time. It only takes a short time for newly hatched larvae to grow into adults. The sea of countless insects is every professional’s nightmare.
"Ende, there are sandworms down there." Barbara had to remind her.
"Boss, there are bugs down there." Hank roared angrily. This kind of insect is one of his nemesis. Apart from slashing with one sword, other skills have little effect on this bug.
Ende frowned and walked to the bottom of the steps to listen attentively. Sure enough, the darkness below was full of crawling sounds. His mood suddenly became very bad: "What the hell, why do these bugs appear here?"
No wonder he was angry. Sandworms are very fragile until they grow into adults. Even a civilian can be easily crushed. Therefore sandworms roaming dry highlands are rare. Most of these bugs live in remote oases and other areas far away from Lugaoin.
"Suna." Ende stomped her feet angrily, trampling a sandworm larvae that climbed up the steps to pieces.
Upon hearing this, Suna's eyes flashed with joy, and she immediately walked to Eun Tak's side, raised her hand and sent out a chain of lightning. Among the five, except Ende, the paladin, and Barbara, none of them are good at dealing with this kind of insect that relies on numbers to win.
The pale lightning was raging on the steps, passing through one bug and sinking into another bug. Each sandworm larvae suddenly exploded the moment the lightning struck, splashing out yellow-yellow-green liquid and covering the entire steps.
"Go down." Ende's expression softened slightly.
Suna was always worried after being disfigured, fearing that she would fall out of favor and lose her current status. Now that she finally got a valuable opportunity to perform, she immediately acted as a pioneer without reservation.
The CD player dispersed the darkness. Countless sandworm larvae cover the thick layer. But faced with chain lightning, they are as fragile as soap bubbles. In a short time, Suna had cleared an area under the steps.
"There are too many of them." Suna drank a bottle of mana potion and focused on highlighting her own role.
Eun Tak remained silent, but his eyes betrayed his inner emotions. That's what worries him. If you can't find the insect mother in the shortest time, you will face a desperate sea of insects.
At this time, Barbara suddenly poured cold water on him: "Maybe that is a secret passage, and he has found the treasure house in the ruins."
Ende's eyes suddenly became sharp and he took the lead into the sea of tens of thousands of insects.
