Chapter 221 The Gate of the Kingdom of God, No One Responds (Two in One, Please Subscribe!!)

The huge dragon-shaped sculpture stands quietly in the abyss of 600 meters under the sea. Its golden pupils seem to be gazing at the uninvited guest of the Trieste.

"Damn it, this is definitely not something that human civilization can build!" Caesar was stared at by the huge dragon shadow with chills down his spine, as if he had seen a ghost, and even for a moment, he felt that the thing seemed to be a living creature of?
"This is a deep sea of ​​more than 600 meters. It is [-] times more difficult to erect such a huge sculpture in such an extreme environment than it is to build a pyramid in ancient Egypt." Chu Zihang's face was also crawling. I was stunned, "And it's such a vivid sculpture, every scale and claw are extremely detailed, it can't be portrayed by imagination alone, human beings don't have such craftsmanship, I suspect that this statue is copied, it is very likely Restored the appearance of the owner of this area."

"So to find out who it is, we need to find out what it is." Caesar looked at the god-like statue and the huge city at its feet, and said slowly, "Find out where this place is." The history of the city."

The ancient city stretches as far as the eye can see, occupying the entire field of vision of everyone, and spanning countless submarine ridges.The sculpture stands on the peak of the ridge in the center of the city, and the crimson magma runs through the center of the city like a river.

The human world has never had a city with such an architectural style, or in other words, human civilization has never reached such a magnificent level.The shadow of the house is like a mountain, and the black tiles cover the mountains one after another. The huge chains are connected horizontally between the mountain houses. On the chains are hung upside down the soul-calling Banners and blue copper bells, and the sea water is like a breeze. There are pieces of music, like the sigh of the deep sea, lamenting and lonely, as if they are telling the past that no one cares about for thousands of years.

"Look over there." Chu Zihang suddenly pointed to somewhere on the ridge ahead, "Does the shiny part of the exposed mountain look like a bronze vein?"

"This city is actually built on a bronze mine? This is probably the largest bronze mine in the world, and it's just used as a foundation? What a waste of money!" Caesar, who is the son of the Gattuso family, couldn't bear it. Stop smacking your tongue.

Years have been engraved on this city several times, but it has not completely submerged its majesty and beauty.Those dilapidated mountain houses and stone pillars reveal a vicissitudes of poetry, the beauty of nature and craftsmanship are integrated, the edges and corners of the ridges have been polished, sharp as a giant ax that opened the sky, and the copper pillars stand towering in the city. , with silver patterns engraved on it, obscure and complicated.

Chu Zihang took out the paper and pen, and while staring at the appearance of the underwater city in front of him, he quickly sketched the city on the paper.

"Is it necessary to use a picture?" Caesar asked, "Wouldn't it be more convenient to record it with a video and let Norma help analyze it?"

"It's different." Chu Zihang shook his head slightly, and he replied while drawing the general topography of the city, "The same city may have a thousand appearances in the eyes of a thousand people. It can be just a part of the building, or It may be a piece of history, or even a civilization, and describing a city is the beginning of understanding a civilization.”

The city is divided into regional divisions around a huge sculpture. The vertical and wide roads divide the city into independent plates. There are dilapidated arc-shaped domes, like a theater structure; tall buildings covered by algae, green The civilization is buried in the wild; there is a high platform similar to a sacrifice, and the coral grows wildly in the candle... At this point in the painting, Chu Zihang suddenly stopped writing.

"Did you find anything?" Caesar asked.

"This city has a clear trunk and roads, with a clear pattern, and there are candles holding torches in the sacrificial platform." Chu Zihang said in a low voice, "This shows that the city was probably built on land. For some reason, it sank into the abyss."

"I'm not surprised by the city that sank to the bottom of the sea. After all, in ancient Greek mythology, Plato's "Dialogues" also described the city that was swallowed by the great flood and sank to the bottom of the sea, Atlantis." Chu Zihang continued. , "But here is an abyss of more than 8000 meters. What kind of power can sink a great city to such a deep seabed, and the Atlantis described in the "Dialogue" is already a dilapidated city with ruins and ruins. One is complete, but the integrity of the city seems to be quite high."

"Especially that weird huge statue." Chu Zihang said, "It was built adjacent to the magma, and it has been soaked in extremely salty water all year round, but it is as clean as new. There should be no such metal in the world, and those tiny statues The fact that the vegetation covered the entire city and bypassed the statue alone cannot even be explained by science."

"Our mission this time is not just for exploration. Just observation can't kill the embryo." Caesar suggested, "Come up, let's get closer to the city?"

"Three 10 minutes." Chu Zihang glanced at the dashboard, "Our oxygen reserve is only enough for us to move around for half an hour at most, and finding an embryo in such a huge city within half an hour is no different from finding a needle in a haystack. Enter the main gate of the city and use the sonar system to cover and search."

"But where is the main entrance of this city? We don't even know where the front is." Caesar frowned slightly.

"You can judge by that statue." Chu Zihang looked at the huge dragon-shaped statue and said, "The whole city was built around it, so the center of the front of the city should be extending from the midpoint of its pupils." On a straight line, visually, it is just below our feet, at three o'clock."

Caesar looked down in the direction Chu Zihang speculated, and then he was taken aback, the coercion exploded in his mind, and the austere sense of antiquity made him almost breathless, because he saw a very familiar architecture.

The building stands at their feet. The structure is quite simple. It consists of two thick pillars supporting Kasagi and Shimagi, and a kangaroo inserted between the two pillars. The white Shimenawa sways with the undulations of the sea. A torii.

But most of the ordinary torii gates are painted with vermilion lacquer and supported by large stone or wooden pillars, but this torii gate in front of us is completely black, and the pillar body is as black as a huge sculpture, which is even more impressive. What surprised me was its height. Even the famous giant torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine in Kyoto area was only a dozen meters high, and the height of the torii gate under their feet was almost as high as the torii gate in front of Inari Taisha Shrine. Ten times the size of the residence - a torii gate with a height of [-] meters. Years, waiting for devout visitors from the Kingdom of God to come across endless time.

……

On the Xumizuo, Yuan Zhisheng's windbreaker was rattled by the icy sea breeze, and his face was hard like never before.Both Crow and Yaksha were sent to their respective positions to make final preparations, and only Sakura was left by his side.

"Sakura, I seem to remember the story you told Miyamoto Noyuki about the torii gate in the deep mountain." Yuan Zhisheng said softly, "You said that the torii gate is a door connecting reality and another world. This door will go back to the distant past, like a ghost traveling through time and space?"

"This story was told by my master when I first became a ninja. At that time, in order to deceive Miyamoto Noyuki's trust, I changed the master's words." Sakura said, "Master said that he read a book, It is called "Ancient Matters". In the story, because of the betrayal of his younger brother Susano, the God Amaterasu found a cave to hide himself and did not want to see his younger brother. As a result, the world lost the sun, so 800 million gods thought of a way, and they built A tall bracket, put all the roosters in the world on the beams, and at dawn, all the roosters shouted loudly, disturbing Amaterasu, and when he pushed the stone to look, Sumo who was hiding aside The wrestlers swarmed up and pushed the stone away, and the sun rose again in this world, shining brightly, and this bracket became the first torii gate in the world."

"So in the records of later generations, the torii has become a sign of the entrance of the god's domain, to remind visitors that once entering the torii is equivalent to stepping into the world where 'gods' live, and kind people will see the bright gods. country, and get the chance to be reincarnated and re-enter the secular world; while those who do evil will see the underworld, and will perish in hell for eternity.” Ying repeated the original words of Master.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Zhisheng said: "Do you think those three guys are good or evil people, will they be swallowed by the underworld after they step into the Kingdom of God?"

"I don't know." Sakura shook her head honestly, and then said, "But I don't think they are bad in nature, but the real kingdom of God is definitely different from the legendary one. Mr. Masamune said that the gods have become evil spirits. So that is the kingdom of the devil, and in the world of evil spirits, it is difficult for good people to survive."

"It's too late to regret, we have no turning back, right?" Yuan Zhisheng said, "My father said that people must die, and only by sacrificing some people can we save more people. If you use three lives, you can completely destroy As far as the god burial place is concerned, it seems that it is a good deal no matter what."

"Young Master..." Ying paused, "Actually, you don't think this is a good deal in your heart. You should be a kind person. Kind people don't regard life as a transaction."

"No, Sakura." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head, "I have already made up my mind, don't interfere with my resolution, since the moment I let the three of them into the water, I have given up climbing back to that free puddle, because I She is the young Patriarch of the Snake Qi Ba Family, the young Patriarch has a firm stand, and there are things he has to do."

"They have entered the burial place of the gods, and the moment of decision has come. This is the war between the Snakes and the Devils, and it is also the final contest between humans and gods. I want to end everything here!" Yuan Zhisheng clenched his nails tightly. Stabbing into the flesh, he was dispelling the last pity with pain.

"Let Kaguya take action and cut off the communication between the headquarters and the Ditriest!"

After giving the last order, Sakura saw Yuan Zhisheng's figure shaking slightly.Even killing Miyamoto Noyuki didn't make him so overwhelmed. This man has never been so tired. He seems to be walking farther and farther away from the road of his dreams. .

……

Kassel College, in the central control room, Schneider and Manstein stared at the video data sent back from the big screen.

They subconsciously held their breath when they saw the Trieste marching to the foot of the huge torii gate, as if they were also in it, as a sincere visitor, afraid that their breathing would disturb the sleeping god.

"You also saw it..." Schneider said woodenly, his voice hoarse and low.

"Nonsense!" Manstein yelled angrily, "I'm not blind, so I can't see it on a 100-inch big screen?"

"No, I'm doubting my eyes." Schneider shook his head, "Those creatures, that statue, that city and torii, those words and carvings... If it wasn't for the video sent by our ace commissioners, I would I will never believe that such a world still exists in this world. This is definitely the largest dragon relic discovered since the establishment of Kassel College. These are priceless cultural relics! It will become our milestone discovery of dragon civilization and history! "

"Yes, but... have you carefully observed the sculptures on both sides of the torii gate? The appearance of a human body and a snake tail." Manstein mused, "It seems that such images rarely appear in European mythology. Chinese Nuwa and White Snake, Greek Medusa, and Japanese mermaids have similar structures."

"So this is a brand-new discovery. I didn't expect that the mission of blowing up the embryos would bring us such amazing information." Schneider said with emotion.

"Do you remember? Originally, the mission assigned by the headmaster to the equipment department was to explore a sunken ship, but now suddenly a whole piece of dragon ruins appeared, so complete... I always feel that this is very strange." Manstein looked Looking at the picture on the screen and falling into deep thought, his eye sockets suddenly widened in an instant, almost shattered, "The door! Isn't that just a door... It's an unprecedented, huge door!"

His finger pointed to the towering black torii gate on the screen.

Schneider's complexion suddenly changed, and strong fear exploded in his mind, because it was amazingly discovered that he ignored the "door". Isn't the torii the most distinctive door in Japanese mythology?Hell, they actually saw the door underwater!In the video, the Trieste is heading straight towards the torii gate, as if it is about to travel to another world.

"Stop! Stop!" Schneider yelled crazily, regardless of how much such a throat cry would bring to his half-disused throat. The fear of 11 years ago filled his mind and made him lose Reasonable, "Drieste! Did you hear that! Return to the voyage immediately! Sumizuo, take them back! I have ordered you as the person in charge of the mission to take them back quickly!"

But Schneider's shocking roar was exchanged for deathly silence, and no one responded in the earphones.

At this time, a playful female voice suddenly sounded.
