In Tianyang's imagination, the place where things like 'God's Legacy' are collected should be a majestic temple, or at least a palace like the 'Shadow Palace', to be worthy of the so-called 'God's Legacy'.
As a result, there is a building on the top of the mountain, but it is not majestic or glorious enough.
It can even be called crude.
This building is quite tall, about ten meters high, but its shape is simple, with a foundation, a roof, and four walls.
Gone.
If there is any decoration, it is only the rough stone pillars at the porch and two three-meter-high stone statues.
Compared to this building, the two stone statues are more exquisite. The two stone statues are majestic and oppressive, wearing exquisite and sturdy full body armor, holding huge swords, and gorgeous masks.
"I always feel like I'll be chopped if I get close." Longdan had finished his rest and walked over, standing next to Tianyang, looking at the two stone statues from a distance.
Tianyang squinted slightly, and with the help of the light from the flares in the air, it was not difficult to see that the ground in front of the stone statue was stained. Moreover, there was very little dust on the stone statue, and it looked like it was usually cleaned.
It is also possible that it is the result of regular activities.
Tianyang squatted down, picked up a stone and threw it in the middle of the stone statue. As soon as the stone fell to the ground, the two stone statues next to it raised their giant swords and cut at an extremely fast speed.
If anyone had appeared on the stone corridor, they would have been chopped in half by now.
"Wow, it's alive!" Longdan shouted.
"That's a kind of mechanism." Moonlight came over, rolled his eyes at Longdan, and corrected him, "Look, they can only make fixed movements, and they don't have any spiritual energy. They are like a kind of puppet."
Just as Yue Guang said, the two statues returned to their original state after several attacks. Tian Yang threw another stone and saw the statues doing the same thing again.
"This kind of mechanism can only be used against ordinary people, and it will only cause harm when the person is caught off guard."
Moonlight shrugged. "If prepared, even an ordinary person can blow up such a mechanism with explosives. Longdan, are you sure that the 'legacy of God' is stored in a place like this?"
Longdan scratched his hair and said, "How can I be sure? I am here for the first time just like you guys."
"Since we're here, let's go in and take a look regardless of whether there's what we're looking for inside." Tianyang looked behind the building. "There's a stone statue guarding the door. How about we go around to the back and go in?"
Long Dan shook his head and said, "There may be a trap behind, or even something more deadly than these two stone statues."
Moonlight agreed this time, "Longdan may not be good at anything else, but he has a lot of skills in stealing. He has been to many similar places, has rich experience, and is trustworthy."
Longdan looked at Yueguang helplessly: "Are you insulting me or praising me?"
Moonlight gave him a 'guess' look, then walked towards the main entrance of the building. She raised the 'full moon' and released a few gray-blue crescent moons, 'hanging' on the two stone statues.
The stone statue was first cut by the crescent moon, then the moonlight shattered it, causing the crescent moon to explode into hundreds of pieces of stone of various sizes.
After the stone statue was blown to pieces, it was possible to see some mechanical structures inside the statue, as well as energy devices emitting orange-red light.
The reason why these stone statues can move is because of this energy device.
"The residents of this world of rebellion really have a high level of technology. Look, this energy device is still usable today. This level of manufacturing is probably only achieved by Sky Fortress. Other fortresses, even super fortresses like Radiance Fortress, cannot produce energy devices that can be used for thousands or even tens of thousands of years."
Moonlight pointed at the energy device emitting orange light with his sword and made some comments.
Longdan trotted over, took out a recycling container, put on gloves, carefully placed two palm-sized energy devices in it, and then called a soldier to keep it.
Seeing Tianyang and the other man staring at him, he laughed dryly, "It's all money. We can sell it when we take it back. We can't waste it."
Tianyang chuckled, then communicated with the black fog, extending his perception into the building to detect possible dangers.
Through the model constructed by the black fog, he saw that behind the door was a hall with some statues and stone pillars supporting the dome. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
It's shockingly simple.
Although no danger was found, Tianyang was almost losing faith in the "legacy of God".
After entering the building, the light from the flares could no longer penetrate in. Tianyang and the others could only use the lighting equipment in their hands to observe the surroundings.
Just like what Tianyang saw in the black fog model, the hall was very simple, with six stone pillars on the left and right supporting the roof.
Then, deep inside the building and on both sides of the hall, there are a total of six statues similar to the stone guards outside. But these statues are lifeless and will not move.
They are not even as tall as the stone statues outside, only about 1.89 meters high, just slightly taller than Tianyang and the others.
These statues were all wearing full body armor, helmets, and gorgeous visors. The visors were made of pure gold, with beautiful patterns on the surface, and they should be able to sell for some money when they were brought to the Deep Sea Castle.
Longdan took off one of them and immediately saw a black skull in the helmet!
He took a deep breath and said, "Could it be that there are actually corpses inside these statues?"
Tianyang had seen corpses hidden in statues before, in the Shadow Temple in Gaoshan Castle, where there were corpses in the statues. However, those corpses were giants, while the statues here were of normal height proportions.
Longdan took off the other masks, and sure enough, all six statues were filled with corpses.
"Look, the number of these statues is not symmetrical, and the positions of the other five, except for the one in the middle, are staggered and asymmetrical." Moonlight used a searchlight to sweep back and forth on both sides of the hall.
After being reminded by her, Tianyang also discovered that there were six statues in the hall, except for the one in the middle, which was placed deep in the hall and formed a central axis with the entrance.
The other five statues are arranged with three on the left and two on the right, and the positions of the statues on both sides are staggered, so it is not a symmetrical structure.
"Also, the statue in the middle doesn't have a sword in its hand." Tianyang pointed out another unusual thing.
The statues in the hall all have the same shape, all of them are warriors wearing armor and holding a long sword in their hands.
Only the one in the middle had lost the sword in his hand.
Moonlight suddenly had an idea and looked at Longdan: "Do you have that 'key' with you?"
Long Dan also reacted at this time: "I have it with me. Of course I carry such an important thing with me."
He quickly took off his backpack and took out a long sword from it, which was the "key" he got from Jiang Xian of the Golden Castle.
But now the gemstone on this sword was removed by Long Dan. Tian Yang saw this and said, "Put the gemstone back."
There was no need for Tianyang to remind him, as Longdan had already done so. After embedding the gem back into the sword, he happily held the sword in his hand and walked to the statue in the center of the hall, where he placed the sword into the statue's empty palm.
After trying it, I found that the hilt of the sword could be put down.
However, even after the sword was put back, nothing unusual happened in the hall.
Long Dan frowned and said, "I thought that after putting down the sword, a secret passage or something would appear."
Moonlight looked around and said, "It seems like we have made this trip in vain."
Long Dan immediately said with a sad face: "No way, we finally got this 'key' with great difficulty."
Moonlight pointed around and said, "You can see that there is nothing here. I see the two stone statues guarding outside are just for show. This building is probably to deceive people and mislead them."
"The real 'legacy of God' is probably stored somewhere else."
Longdan thought it made sense. Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows. It is not surprising that for a precious thing like "God's Legacy", there would be a few deceptive buildings.
"If that's the case, why do we need mountain guards at the foot of the mountain?" Tianyang frowned. Don't those people know that they are guarding something that doesn't exist? This would be too cruel for them.
Tian Yang suddenly thought that the gemstone of the key would release some information when stimulated by energy. It was this information that led them to this place.
In that case, could the secret of this hall be hidden in this information
He raised his hand, condensed the star essence, and stimulated a stream of energy, which was injected into the gem of the "key". The gem that Longdan had just put back suddenly shone brightly, and hundreds of rays of light shot out from it.
These rays gradually split into five energy beams, which were cast onto the five statues on both sides of the hall.
The five statues began to vibrate, and the dust on them kept falling off, revealing a crystal on their chests. The crystal on the statues gradually lit up, as if it was resonating with the gem on the "key".
At this time, the floor of the hall began to light up with orange-red light, which drew a complicated pattern on the ground. Just when Tianyang and the others wanted to decipher the pattern, the ground shook, and the sound of machinery and parts moving was heard.
A moment later, in the middle of the hall, the ground first sank, then the two sides shrank, and an entrance to the underground appeared.
When the shaking stopped, Tianyang approached and waved his hand to drive away the dust. When the searchlight shone inside, he saw a staircase extending downwards. In the dim space inside, a faint and hazy orange light occasionally lit up.
Tianyang raised his head, looked at Longdan and said, "It seems that there is hope for your 'God's Legacy' again."
Longdan also nodded excitedly. He thought he had made a wasted trip, but then a staircase leading to underground appeared, giving him hope again.
"but... "
Tian Yang glanced at everyone and said, "Don't you think this passage appeared too easily?"
