The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 1243 The Disappearing Prestige (6)

This is an empty space with a width of more than 50 meters and a height of nearly 15 meters. The walls are no longer decorated in the form of mosaics, but in the form of reliefs. color.

Due to time constraints, the colors on these reliefs are mostly dim and covered with a lot of dust, so it is difficult to see what they are.

The clearest and most conspicuous ones should be the two huge humanoid sculptures right in front of them.

Their shapes are exactly the same, they look like a soldier wearing a breastplate, a colleague standing with a sword, and an oval kite shield hanging on his left hand.

Maybe it was because of the fall, or maybe it was because the ground was too heavy and the ground was subsiding. The sculptures of the two soldiers looked a little crooked, and it felt like they might fall down when they followed them.

The simple decoration is nothing to be afraid of, but Lin Tianci noticed that the concentration of magic power in this area is obviously much higher than other places, which is why the mosaics on the walls are relatively well preserved along the way.

In short, Lin Tianci was a little worried that the two huge statues six or seven meters high would suddenly come alive and beat him up.

Listia didn't have such unnecessary worries, she walked in after her, and when she saw the statues and murals, she said:

"These statues were the habit of the tyrant Nemesis. During the heyday of the old empire, they liked to use various sculptures to show their identity and status. There are strict rules and regulations."

While speaking, Listia nodded lightly. It should be that she had just detected the spell to see if there was any danger nearby.

"This kind of shape is called a guardian statue, and it should only appear in the palace of the royal family, and it should not appear on the Quan Wangxing, which has the same nature as the research institute."

After taking a few quick steps, Listia walked to the mural next to her, brushed off the dust with her hand, and carefully identified the information on it.

Her eyes seemed to be able to sparkle, and although her tone of voice was the same as before, she couldn't hear much emotion, but she became visibly excited.

Lin Tianci didn't bother her either. He is the kind who doesn't know anything about the background and history of the old empire, so it's more appropriate to leave it to a professional.

Mural paintings are repetitive paintings, and the painted objects are basically the same kind, which is a perfect circular relief.

According to Petra, the circles represent the gods of the old empire, but there are also many cross-shaped symbols painted with gold powder on these circular reliefs, and the outer circle of each star-shaped symbol is square circle it.

With an unconcealable smile on the corner of her mouth, Listia said:
"We won the lottery. This should be the deepest vault of King Quan. It has strong magic protection, so most of the main structure was not completely damaged when it fell from above."

This also explains why there are so many traps in the corridor that Lin Tianci walked in when they came in. If it wasn't because of being broken, I'm afraid it would take a little more time.

"A large number of precious magic items and holy objects looted by the tyrant Nemesis may be found here. This is a worldwide discovery, and its importance is no less important than his tomb!"

At least in terms of being unable to walk when seeing something of interest, Listia is no different from Petra.

–‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

In a huge empire, once the state apparatus is mobilized, no matter what it does, it will be very exaggerated.

In any existing record, Nemesis is a tyrant to the letter. He was extremely greedy. After the reunification of the country, he immediately began to collect treasures. As long as it was good, he wanted everything.

He wants to get involved in the prestigious Chuxue, the precious magic items spread among adventurers, and even the illusory legends.

However, after snatching the things back, it is impossible to stuff them all into his own tomb, because not all things are suitable for burial.

Moreover, these things themselves have high research value. As the leading astronomy and magic research institution in the country at that time, the possibility that Quan Wangxing will keep these things is very high.

If the time was turned back 3000 years, and Lin Tianci wanted to sneak into Quan Wangxing to steal something, it would be no less difficult than breaking into a Dapai in Eastern Shenzhou to go to someone else's Tibetan scripture pavilion for two laps.

The never-closing magic protection has always shrouded the huge building complex of Quanwang Xing. Countless secret passages and traps guard every inch of the land, and there are many powerful magic traps among them.

The moment an intruder enters the magic barrier, they will be discovered by the soldiers guarding King Quan. Unless they have the ability to wipe out all the security systems, it is not easy to sneak in secretly.

In terms of strictness, it is even more heavily guarded than the palace.

But 3000 years later, everything in the old empire has become a handful of yellow sand.The powerful magic also withered slowly over time, and the guards who scanned every corner were now turned into a pile of bones, and driven by negative energy, they attacked any living creatures that approached.

The two hadn't chatted at the door for a long time. Listia was a bit different from Petra. Petra would record everything she saw in a sketch in a notebook. Maybe she will even find a way to cut out a piece of it completely.

On the other hand, Listia lost interest in the mural after she recognized the meaning of the city represented by it. Compared with these purely academic things, she wanted to see what treasures were inside.

Although she said that this should be the treasure house with the strictest security level on Quanwangxing, after all, the main body of the building fell from the buildings on Quanwangxing above. out of shape.

For example, the passage between the two statues is almost [-] degrees inclined to the ground. When walking through it, it is like entering the "visually inclined room" of the Science and Technology Museum. If you don't pay attention, it is easy to step on the loose one Stones, if you are unlucky, you can easily sprain your feet.

Lin Tianci can walk as fast as he can with light work, but he has to take care of Listia's speed. This girl is not the type who is good at outdoor activities, and her long-term office copywriting life makes her physical strength more worrying.

Even though she insisted that she was always No.1 in the long-distance running in the college, Lin Tianci also slowed down a little bit thoughtfully. After all, Listia's figure is too short, and she feels like a girl in her teens.

Of course, you can't say the second half of the sentence, or Listia will definitely explode.

As before, some damaged trap activation mechanisms can be seen along the way, as well as some guards hiding in the dark, which should have existed as secret sentries.

They are basically in the state of bones now, and some of them are relatively well preserved. They will become undead creatures and jump out under the erosion of the strong negative energy in the underground, but they are basically bones with only 5 combat power. .

So in general, except for the difficult road, there is no danger for the time being, and it is relatively easy and pleasant.

That's right until they come to the end of the corridor.

This corridor is about 100 meters in total, and at the end is a Y shape with three forks. As soon as the two approached, Listia immediately reminded:

"There are magical forces gathering in front, like some kind of summoning spell."

Before the words fell, a strong whirlwind suddenly blew up in the center of the intersection ahead. With the help of lighting spells, one could clearly see the dust on the ground and ceiling swirling as if being sucked into a tornado. A pair of orange-yellow eyes emerged in the swirling dust. The huge smoke did not disperse, but gradually formed a humanoid object with a height of about four or five meters. It looked like it was made of whirlwind and sand The pair of bright orange eyes turned to Lin Tianci and Petra.

"It's a dust element, but why is there such a thing here?"

Listia and Shani dug a hole directly from above. Unlike Lin Tianci, they had no experience of meeting elemental creatures face to face in the underground canyon.

According to past experience, there may be magic traps and monsters in the ancient ruins of the Old Empire, but there are no elemental creatures as guards, and there is no spell to summon elemental creatures in the Old Empire.

So a dust element suddenly ran out, which made Listia a little bit confused, and reached out to use some spells to detect this unreasonable elemental creature.

Lin Tianci waved her hand to stop Listia:

"Stay where you are and be careful, I'll deal with it."

According to the height of a normal person, Lin Tianci's arm should stop not far from his chest, but Listia is short, and this reaching out simply blocked her eyes...

This made her a little unhappy, after all, the matter of figure was the eternal pain of Listia.

Lin Tianci had no time to take care of the inexplicably injured girl's heart, so he catapulted and rushed up after speaking.

The appearance of the dust element was originally to stop Lin Tianci who continued to move forward. Seeing that he rushed up by himself, he immediately raised his fist.

Its body is made of whirlwind and dust, and its fist is no exception. The high-speed rotating gravel can grind steel instantly. The roar is mixed with the violent wind, making it difficult to judge whether it is roar or Simple wind.

At this time, Sai Li, who had been watching the play, suddenly said:

"The dust element is also an elemental creature with a level of around 40. It is a combination of earth and wind elements. It has the characteristics of immunity to physical attacks. At the same time, the high-speed rotating sand itself cannot be easily touched."

Unless necessary, Sally would not speak casually in the presence of outsiders, because it would be troublesome to explain.

But in this messy environment, only Lin Tianci could hear Sai Li's words, so it didn't matter.

While speaking, Lin Tianci stepped on the damaged wall and circled around the arc like flying over the eaves, just avoiding the straight punch of the dust element.

Since this thing can't be hit with physical attacks, it's better to use spells to clean the ground.

When the hands were closed and opened again, a twisted thunder snake with strong light was pulled out from the palm...
