"Don't touch these stone statues casually. Since they are alive, any external stimulation may revive them." The knight reminded.
Wu Xiangnan walked among these stone statues, carefully observing each of their expressions, gazes, and even movements. After a long time, he stood among the many stone statues and turned his head to look in a certain direction in confusion.
"What did you find?" the knight asked, seeing Wu Xiangnan looking thoughtful.
"The movements of these stone statues are basically running, or extending their arms slightly forward. There is some desire in their eyes? What are they fighting for?" Wu Xiangnan guessed and opened his mouth. He stared in that direction and continued, "Look at the direction of movement of most of them, it's over there."
"What's over there?"
"I don't know, maybe we should go and have a look."
The three of them walked through many ferocious stone statues. The deeper they went in, the denser the stone statues became. On the ruins of this demon shrine, there were at least forty "mysterious" stone statues scattered around, and they exuded a powerful atmosphere. The breath fluctuations are very terrifying.
As the three of them went deeper, a short black temple finally appeared in their eyes.
The temple is only two or three meters high, which is equivalent to the size of an ordinary basketball court. The dark walls and ancient stone pillars hold up the Japanese-style shrine roof. In the center of the shrine, there is a burly statue of the god. Wrapped with gold rings and magatama hanging on the back, it looks extremely heroic.
The palm of his left hand was facing up, as if he was holding something in vain, but the palm was empty. A ball of silver chaos was suspended in the center of the palm of his right hand, emitting a strange phantom light in the dark shrine, rolling like a living thing.
The moment Wu Xiangnan and the knight saw the silver sphere, for some reason, their eyes were fixed on the sphere and they couldn't move their eyes away. An unprecedented desire emerged in their hearts. It was a desire that was more important than survival and reproduction. Primitive instinct, that is a species' desire to evolve and get rid of the shackles of the mortal body!
Deep in their hearts, an extremely strong idea forced them to get that silver sphere!
They subconsciously stretched out their hands, wanting to hold the silver sphere in their palms
At this moment, a pair of white hands grabbed their wrists at the same time.
Jialan, who was wearing a dark blue Han robe, stood in front of the two of them, holding their wrists tightly, his eyes full of seriousness, "Don't touch this thing!"
Hearing these words, the drowsy eyes of Wu Xiangnan and the knight still did not change at all. They could not control the desire deep in their hearts. Their palms were still subconsciously wrestling with Jialan, trying to break free from her wrist and grab her. That silver ball.
Fortunately for Wu Xiangnan, Jialan could control him with one hand, but the knight's power was too strong. As one of the best Red Lotus knights in London's "human circle", his physical strength had long exceeded that of normal people. Within the scope of understanding, plus Jialan only had one hand at the moment, he was unable to stop him for a while.
The knight threw away Jialan's arm, his wrist shook, and the clear water flew out like silk, rolling towards the silver ball in the center of the stone statue!
His eyes were full of excitement and desire!
Seeing this, Jialan seemed to have remembered something bad. She gritted her teeth and pressed the button on the handle of the black box. The golden spear Tianque automatically popped out, and she instantly held it in her hand, stabbing the knight. palm!
The sharp tip of the spear pierced the knight's palm, and blood spurted out. The severe pain awakened the knight from his dazed state, and a look of panic flashed in his eyes.
"Sorry." Jialan's eyes flashed with determination.
Whoosh! !
A snow-white long leg roared through the air and kicked him hard in the chest. The terrifying force knocked him away instantly, smashed into the dark gray wall more than 20 meters away, and fell to the ground.
Almost at the same time, the clear water touched the silver sphere. The chaotic and rolling silver sphere seemed to come alive. A mysterious silver light followed the water, filling the air for an instant, but suddenly stopped at the end of the water. Stop.
If Jialan hadn't kicked the knight away just now, I'm afraid the silver light would have penetrated into his body now.
At this moment, Wu Xiangnan had also woken up. He looked at the silver sphere in shock, and then at the knight who was injured and kicked away by Jialan, doubts flashing in his eyes.
"What's going on? What happened?!" Wu Xiangnan looked at Jia Lan, who was holding a spear.
"You can't touch this thing." Jialan said seriously, "At least you can't. It doesn't fit your body, and it contains impurities inside. If you suck it into your body rashly, you'll die within three months. There's no such thing. The cure.”
Wu Xiangnan was stunned, "What on earth is this thing?"
Jialan looked back at the silver sphere and frowned tightly, "This is some kind of 'origin'."
"origin?"
"It is the soil that breeds the law. After absorbing it, you will have the possibility of becoming a god without risk, and the entire life level of a person will be sublimated and no longer belongs to the category of simple 'human'." Jialan explained.
"Become a god without risk!" Wu Xiangnan froze when he heard these words.
He looked back at the ferocious stone statues eager to get closer to the temple, as if he understood something, "So, these things are all here to steal the 'origin'?"
"It should be true. 'Origin' means the evolution of life levels. No living thing can resist its temptation."
Hearing these words, Wu Xiangnan was startled. He turned to look at Jialan, "What about you? Why aren't you attracted by it?"
Jialan avoided Wu Xiangnan's gaze, pursed his lips, and said nothing.
"Ahem, cough, cough." The knight stood up from the corner unsteadily, and while wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he asked, "'Origin'? How come I have never heard of you? Where did you know it?"
Jialan remained silent.
Seeing that Jialan refused to say anything, Wu Xiangnan and the knight had no intention of continuing to ask. They looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.
No matter what, if Jialan hadn't stopped them just now, they would have probably absorbed this "origin" into their bodies by now and were waiting to die suddenly.
Wu Xiangnan was about to say something when his eyes swept across the silvery water on the ground and suddenly his pupils shrank!
I saw the water mixed with silver light flowing along the ravine of the ruins and into the scattered stone statues. The silver phantom light surged in the air. All the stone statues in this ruins suddenly and violently Shake!
The earth shook!
