In a vast expanse of yellow sand, hundreds of naked and emaciated figures were excavating a huge ancient ruins.
If you look from above, you will find that what they dug out is a rectangular building, which is hundreds of meters deep and made of countless pieces of steel that have long been corroded.
This building seems to be a hall buried underground. Most of the dome has collapsed and is buried deep underground. Only a few parts that have not collapsed are still built.
The entire building seemed to be made of steel, and these people were digging out the steel from the building.
"Shais, this ancient ruin must be mined within three months."
A man wearing a black robe with three lines of gold said in a hoarse voice, "All the mined steel must be handed over to the high priest. You are not allowed to be greedy, otherwise the high priest will definitely punish you. Feed your body to God and lower your soul to the endless fire of hell..."
Even the face of the man in the gold-rimmed black robe is covered with black gauze. Only when the hot desert wind blows continuously can the man's face under the black gauze be seen.
It was a hideous and twisted face, full of ulcers and corruption.
"I sincerely follow the teachings of Your Excellency the High Priest and Your Excellency the Deacon..."
Standing in front of the man in black robe on the edge of Phnom Penh is a man who is also wearing black robe, but unlike the previous man in black robe, there are much fewer ulcers on his face. There are only scars on his face that were once ulcerated but have healed. .
There was only a gold edge on his black robe, and he was bowing slightly to show respect for the man in front of him.
"Ah, very good."
The man in black robes with golden edges nodded with satisfaction. He turned around and walked towards a huge aeroboat behind him. There was also a group of men in black robes beside him. These black robes were different from the workers who mined ancient ruins. Under the robes of the black-robed men, you can clearly see the bulging muscles, and their sizes are far larger than ordinary people, with some even reaching three meters in height.
Like a group of wild beasts.
"Congratulations to Mr. Deacon Armas..."
Watching the man in the black robe with gold rims go away little by little, this relatively normal man immediately showed a flattering smile and lowered his head. However, the moment he lowered his head, the coldness in his eyes could be faintly seen.
But just when the other party took a step, suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps behind him, and a thin man in black robe ran over in a panic, "Master Shais, those workers... they, they dug Something strange has arrived!”
"Um?"
The man in black robe with gold trim who was about to leave suddenly stopped at his feet. He slowly turned around and looked at the thin man in black robe behind Shais, "What did you dig up?"
"Yes, it's something like a coffin..."
The thin man in black robe shrank in fear. He looked at Shais in front of him, "It's very heavy and very strong. We still can't open it..."
After hearing this, Shais turned around and glared at the thin man in black robes. Then he turned back again and flattered the man in black robes with gold rims not far in front of him. "Those workers have never seen the world, I guess." It's just some device in this ancient building, it shouldn't be anything important... "
"What exactly is it? Can't you tell by looking at it?"
However, the man in gold-rimmed black robe showed a cunning smile. He turned and walked towards the ruins, "Shais, are you trying to embezzle the sacrifice offered to the god by the high priest Mo?"
"Of course not!"
Shais shook his head quickly and had no choice but to follow behind him.
Soon, everyone came to the edge of the huge ruins. From here, they could only see that the size of the ruins exceeded the area of a football field. Hundreds of people were constantly busy inside, using various steel tools to continuously While knocking on the steel frames, a large number of people gathered at the bottom of the ruins, seemingly observing something.
"Have someone transport that thing out."
The man in gold-rimmed black robe ordered.
"Quickly, ask those workers to take that metal lump and present it to Lord Deacon Armas!"
Shais ordered quickly.
Immediately, his order was passed on, and the group of workers, urged by several muscular and deformed supervisors, picked up the metal object and walked up from the bottom.
"Huh...huh..."
A group of sallow-looking laborers panted heavily and spent a lot of effort to transport the things out and place them in front of everyone.
Only then did everyone see that it was indeed a coffin-shaped metal object, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. It looked as smooth as new, as if hundreds of years had left no trace on it.
"Huh?"
Seeing the blue fluorescence glowing on it, the man in the gold-rimmed black robe suddenly brightened up, "Good thing, there is no trace of corrosion. This must be a very powerful metal. If it is used to make weapons, it must be top-notch." . ”
"Don't be anxious, Mr. Deacon Armas."
Shais smiled and said, "Obviously, this coffin-like thing seems to be a box. In other words, there may be more important things inside. Maybe it is the tombs of some high-ranking people in ancient times. Inside the coffin are Jewelry used for burial…”
"Jewelry?"
The man in gold-rimmed black robe suddenly narrowed his eyes, with a hint of greed in his eyes, "Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and let someone open it? If there are really jewels, as long as they are presented to the high priest, you and I can get the treasure of God." reward."
"yes."
Shais nodded and continued to instruct the thin man in black robe on the side, "Find a few stronger workers and ask them to pry open this coffin."
"yes!"
The thin black-robed man nodded immediately. He ran to the edge of the ruins and shouted several times inside. Suddenly, several slightly stronger workers walked out of the ruins.
"You guys, open it together!"
The thin man in black robe yelled loudly, and then the group of workers gathered around him with numb faces, trying to push open the lid on the top of the metal coffin.
"one two three!"
Everyone shouted loudly and kept exerting force, but no matter how hard they pushed, the lid on the metal coffin could not move at all.
"What's going on? Haven't you eaten yet?"
After waiting for a while and seeing that no one had achieved any results, Shais frowned. He looked at the impatient man in black robe with gold rims and shouted loudly, "Go get the tools and use them to pry it open." !”
Seeing this, the group of workers stopped what they were doing, took crowbars from other workers, tried to stuff them into the gaps in the coffin, and pried open the entire cover of the coffin.
However, more than ten minutes passed, and everyone was still at a loss.
"Sir, there is no gap in this coffin that a crowbar can fit into..."
One of the workers boldly responded.
"A bunch of trash!"
Shai suddenly cursed. He pushed away everyone, walked to the coffin and inspected it. However, he found that the crowbars had been bent, but there was not even a scratch on the coffin.
Such hard metal!
Shais secretly marveled in his heart, but he still showed an angry look, and then looked at the man in black robe with gold border, "Deacon Armas, look at this..."
"Huh, I've never seen a coffin that couldn't be opened."
Armas sneered, "Where's the chain saw? Can't you just cut it open with a chain saw?"
"Yes, there is also a chain saw!"
Hearing this, Scheis immediately patted his head, showing a look of sudden realization. After a while, a chain saw was sent over. This time, Scheis personally operated the saw. He held an old chain saw and pointed at it. The connection between the cover plate and the coffin body was sawed vigorously!
laugh!
There was a harsh friction sound, and sparks suddenly appeared on the chain saw.
However, after waiting for a while, he could not see the chainsaw's cut marks on the metal coffin. He put down the chainsaw again only when he felt that he could no longer support it, but then he was dumbfounded.
I saw that the part cut by the chain saw was still as clean as new, but the teeth of the chain saw were almost worn away!
Seeing this scene, not only Shais, but also Armas and others were dumbfounded.
The saw can't cut it open, nor can I pry it open. What should I do with this thing
However, just when everyone was feeling troubled, suddenly, the coffin-like device suddenly made a hissing sound, as if it was deflating inside. Then there was only an electronic sound. There was no way that everyone could do anything about the coffin. , unexpectedly opened it little by little...
what happened…
Shais was startled, and he subconsciously took two steps back, showing a wary look.
The man in gold-rimmed black robe waved his hand, and several muscular men immediately surrounded him.
"ah… "
However, when the group of people saw what was after the coffin was opened, several people suddenly let out a cry of surprise, and then everyone saw a man in strange clothes levitating out of the coffin!
That’s right, it’s levitation!
This man had a sickly pale look on his face. He had his eyes closed and had weird short hair. He seemed to have escaped gravity, and his whole body was filled with a strange and ominous aura.
And the moment he emerged, it seemed that the entire space was suppressed. The wind and sand in the desert stopped strangely. Everyone felt that even their breathing became extremely suppressed. They kept breathing in, but the air that was everywhere seemed to They were all suppressed by each other, making it difficult to breathe in and out of their mouths and noses!
An indescribable sense of crisis slowly spread...
"W-Who are you!"
I don’t know how much time passed, but in this death-like depression, the man in gold-rimmed black robe was the first to come to his senses. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Why did you get into the coffin? Do you know that here?" Everything is dedicated to God, you have committed a heinous crime!"
As if he heard the other party's question, the man suddenly opened his eyes, and the moment he opened his eyes, it seemed that the world dimmed for a moment!
What kind of eyes are those, full of endless depth, and like the boundless starry sky, so dark that it’s shocking!
"god?"
The man seemed to be a little unaccustomed to the strong sunlight. He squinted slightly, but a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Where is the god in this world? If there is a god, then I am the god."
"Be bold!"
The expression of the man in gold-rimmed black robe suddenly changed, and a strange aura began to fill his body. At the same time, he shouted, "You actually question the existence of God? Come on, catch him, I will bring him to the high priest." , offering his flesh and blood to the gods!”
Upon hearing the order from the man in black robes in Phnom Penh, the group of muscular men in black robes around them immediately stepped forward and grabbed the mysterious man at the same time!
However, before this group of people got close to each other, their expressions suddenly changed, and everyone froze in place, as if they had been cast a holding spell.
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you get in quickly!"
The man in the gold-rimmed black robe shrank his pupils and seemed to understand something, but he still urged without giving up.
"They have gone to meet the God of your mouth."
The man took a slight step, and immediately, his body slowly descended, directly in front of the man in black robe with gold border. At the same time, the dozen or so men in black robe seemed to be collapsed building blocks, starting from their heads and turning into pieces. The whole body collapsed completely!
Plop!
More than a dozen men in black robes were directly smashed to the ground. The blood of Dagu Dagu filled the air from the broken corpses, giving off waves of disgusting smells.
"you!"
The pupils of the man in gold-rimmed black robe shrank, and he took two steps back again, with a look of shock in his eyes, "Impossible, you are actually a high-level psychic!"
"Psychic power, is this what you call mysterious power?"
The man tilted his head. He could sense that a strange but familiar force began to appear on the body of the man in gold-rimmed black robe in front of him. This force was none other than the consciousness stealer he had come into contact with before. The strange power he possesses…
"God, please give me the power to destroy the impure people in front of me!"
The man in black robes with golden borders suddenly shouted loudly. He spread his hands and a trace of invisible power began to gather around him, but the next second, something suddenly seemed to be stuck in his throat.
"Lah, haha..."
The man in black robe with gold border quickly touched his neck, but he didn't touch anything. He looked at the mysterious man in front of him in shock, and wanted to say something, but then he heard a click, and his neck was directly touched by nine. It broke at an angle of ten degrees!
Plop!
Before the man in gold-rimmed black robe could express his power, he collapsed to the ground and lost his voice.
After doing all this, the mysterious man turned his head and looked at Shais, who was already stunned.
"Your Excellency, Spiritual Psyker!"
Shais felt a chill coming over him. Without thinking, he knelt down in front of the other party and lowered his head deeply. "I am your most pious and loyal servant. Please spare our lives!"
At the same time, the thin man in black robe behind Shais, as well as all the workers and other personnel, all knelt down...
Hearing this, the mysterious man raised a playful smile and said calmly, "Very good, very energetic."
"Now, tell me your names, ages, and background..."
As he spoke, he pointed to Shais, who had the highest status among the crowd and was the first to kneel:
"It starts with you."
