Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1096 The Secret of the Inner Palace

The first place where this blasting vehicle would be put into use would undoubtedly be the Northeast Front.

However, given the situation there, it is unrealistic to quickly build a decent border fortress at this stage.

Therefore, there is no demand for city defense blasting vehicles there for the time being. Zhou Xu signaled the arsenal under him to give priority to the production of smaller blasting vehicles with greater versatility.

This way, they can be used either in defense or offense later.

After finishing all the things that needed to be dealt with and arranged, Zhou Xu obviously had no intention of staying in Black Moon City any longer.

He plans to set off again tomorrow morning.

But this time, he was not planning to go to the northeast border, but to Ceylon City in the rainforest area.

Don't forget, there is a restriction in Ceylon City waiting for him to study.

If we can figure out this restriction by this winter, we can then set one up directly on the northeastern front.

After all, he didn't know whether there would be a wizard at the Saint level on the opposite side.

If there is, this trick can prevent it to some extent.

In addition, in terms of experience in entering the holy realm, Bo Levin undoubtedly has more experience than him, and he can also find an opportunity to communicate with the other party appropriately and gain some experience.

With this thought in mind, Zhou Xu set off quickly.

During this period, on the northeastern border, Li Ce began to send out reconnaissance teams to carry out reconnaissance missions.

The greenskins on the opposite side are obviously not very good at counter-reconnaissance work.

Although a snowstorm covered up many traces, they still allowed the scouts of the Great Zhou to capture some information, and then followed the clues to find some traces of the greenskins. However, after that, he did not let the reconnaissance team get any closer.

After all, the task given to him by their Majesty was to defend the place, and to spend the winter as peacefully as possible, and then take action after the Lizardman troops arrived in the spring of next year.

Under this premise, if they continue to go deeper, and the other side discovers the traces of the scouts, it will only bring them trouble.

With this thought in mind, Li Ce began to restrain his actions.

During this period, Zhou Xu had already rushed all the way to Ceylon City.

"Bo Levin, meet your majesty!"

"Everyone is free of charge."

Compared with ordinary citizens, due to the influence of their class, the lizardmen can basically be said to be his believers. Unless it is inconvenient on the battlefield, every time they see him, their entire performance is as pious as possible.

Entering the temple, Zhou Xu asked directly about the restrictions.

“Your Majesty, please forgive me. Although I know that there is a restriction in the rainforest area, this restriction has existed since the establishment of the temple. I don’t know exactly where it is.”

After learning about the situation, Zhou Xu turned around and found Bam who was sleeping soundly.

"What? Restriction?"

Bam, who was half asleep, did not lose his temper after being forcibly woken up.

The main thing is that his life nowadays is basically just eating and sleeping. He is carefree all day long and has no worries. Naturally, his mentality is very good.

However, Bam shook his head in response to Zhou Xu's question.

"I don't know. You didn't tell me."

But whether it was Bolevin or Bam, they both mentioned the inner temple.

If there is really a ban in this temple, then the core must be in the inner hall. After all, the core of the defensive barrier here is set in the inner hall. Zhou Xu didn't think much about it and went straight to the inner hall.

Bam, on the other hand, had no interest in this matter and simply fell asleep.

Sleeping is a big hobby for the dragon race.

Many adult dragons can sleep for several years or even decades at a time. This is nothing for them with such long lives.

After entering the inner hall, Zhou Xu did not hesitate and directly opened the "Eye of Secrets".

When he first came here, he didn't have the 'Eye of Peering into Mysteries'. Later, due to various things, he really didn't use the 'Eye of Peering into Mysteries' to scan this inner hall.

Now that the "Eye of Peering into Secrets" has been opened, the world before my eyes has suddenly become different.

Looking up, he saw that the walls and ceiling of the inner hall, and even the ground beneath his feet, were all covered with densely packed runes.

Under the gaze of his "Prying Eyes", the runes glowed, causing Zhou Xu to gasp on the spot.

"Wow, this entire inner hall is actually a super complex combination of mantras. This defensive barrier and prohibition are probably all included in it."

Although he had prepared himself mentally before coming here, Zhou Xu still couldn't help but gasp when this complex combination of mantras appeared directly before his eyes.

Then he quickly averted his sight, not daring to look any further, for fear that if he did, he would suffer backlash because he could not handle the overwhelming amount of information.

However, in the process, he soon discovered that there was a particularly dazzling light spot next to the altar in the inner hall.

This spot of light seems to be deliberately attracting people to click on it.

Theoretically speaking, this inner hall is where the will of the Dragon God Ceylon once slept.

He also has a contract with the Dragon God Ceylon, and the Dragon God's Son is still in his hands. There should be nothing harmful to him here.

In fact, this is likely to be a breakthrough.

With this thought in mind, Zhou Xu cautiously reached out his hand towards the light.

The moment he touched the light spot, Zhou Xu suddenly felt as if an invisible force swept through his body.

Before he could think any more, the system's voice rang in his mind...

[System prompt: The identity is confirmed as 'Zhou Xu', and the realm is confirmed as 'Entering the Saint Realm'. The prerequisites are met. Do you want to perform a directional teleportation? ]

Zhou Xu was stunned by this system prompt.

[How does this have anything to do with teleportation? It sounds like I must be in the Saint Realm to meet the requirements...]

Out of caution, Zhou Xu first went out to inform Bo Levin and the others, then came back and touched the light spot again.

Not surprisingly, the feeling of being scanned reappeared.

Judging from the previous system prompts, this step should be to confirm his identity and realm.

From this point of view, this thing might be related to him?
After all, he had an agreement with the Dragon God Ceylon, so it didn't seem surprising that he had left some backup plans here.

I don't know if it was because the Dragon God Ceylon knew that he didn't have much time left and was busy instructing his son and had no time to tell him about this, or what, he didn't tell him about this.

At this moment, facing the system's inquiry again, this time, Zhou Xu did not refuse and agreed directly.

The next second, Zhou Xu felt that almost a quarter of the power of the mantra in his body was instantly drained away. Then, a flash of light passed by, and Zhou Xu's figure disappeared into the inner hall out of thin air...
