"What are these, black folk?"
Moonlight drew out the 'full moon', and the gray-blue moonlight had already filled the sword, ready to strike at any time.
Tianyang looked around vigilantly, communicating with the black fog, sensing the extension and spread, covering those figures. But he only felt a very weak energy aura on them, which seemed like morning mist, and would dissipate as long as the sunlight was a little stronger.
"No, more like some projections." Tianyang shook his head, denying Yueguang's guess.
Longdan looked over: "Projection?"
Tianyang nodded: "There must have been people living here before, and maybe animals as well. They lived in this area and had strong emotions invested in it."
"These emotions, these spirits. Under the influence of the orange light, they cast shadows that we can see now. If it was before, it's hard to say whether they were aggressive or not."
"But now, the energy of those orange-red lights is already very weak. The projection that relies on this energy is already as weak as a shadow and no longer has any attack power."
Just as Tianyang said, after a moment, those figures slowly dissipated like morning mist.
Tianyang whispered: "This may be the last time they appear."
After walking a little further, a huge statue ten meters high suddenly appeared in front of everyone. This statue was similar to the stone statue in front of the gate of the temple on the top of the mountain. It was covered with fine armor that covered the whole body. The helmet was majestic in shape, and the visor was also made of gold, with flying lines on it, like burning flames.
Tianyang threw a stone at the statue, but the statue stood still and did not seem to be a mechanism.
Next to the stone statue, there is a stone tablet with clear text on it.
Yue Guang patted Long Dan and pointed at the stone tablet: "What's written on it?"
Longdan stared at it for a few seconds, but shook his head and said, "I don't understand."
Yue Guang looked him up and down. "Who said before that he had studied the writings of this world?"
"Miss, this is obviously a very ancient place. Maybe even the residents of this world can't understand it, let alone someone like me who is outside the world."
Longdan protested: "I just read a little bit, you think I'm an encyclopedia."
Moonlight said nonchalantly: "Forget it, I knew I couldn't count on you at the critical moment."
At this moment, a soldier suddenly covered his helmet and shouted, "Stop talking, stop talking."
Everyone looked towards him.
Longdan immediately came over, helped him up and asked, "Hey, what are you doing?"
The soldier raised his head, and his expression was extremely terrified inside his helmet: "Someone is talking in my ear, many people, men, women, old people and children. I can't understand what they are saying, but I can feel that they are cursing me, and their tone sounds very vicious and angry..."
Before Longdan knew what was happening, he saw another warrior suddenly screaming, holding his hand and shouting: "Save me, save me quickly. My hand is rotten, my God, I can see the bones."
Everyone looked at each other.
The soldier's hand was intact, and where there was rot, you could see the bones.
But the warrior seemed to be extremely frightened. He drew his sword and tried to cut off his arm, as if to prevent the rot from spreading to the
Other parts of the body.
Two companions nearby quickly caught him.
Another soldier pointed at the stone statue in front of him: "It's alive. Look, it's alive. Oh my God, I can see eyeballs in its visor. It raised its sword..."
The soldier screamed out of control, raised his gun and shot at the statue.
Tianyang quickly knocked out the out-of-control warrior. He looked around, sensing the space with his heart, looking for anything abnormal.
Soon, he discovered that the stone tablet had an abnormal energy reaction. Inside the stone tablet, streams of energy were moving according to a certain pattern, forming a fluctuation of a special frequency.
This wave has spread to the surroundings and seems to be able to affect the nerves of living things and cause people to have hallucinations.
Tianyang did not hesitate any longer, and swept the Ice Soul Blade over, releasing an 'Ice Crack Wave' from the blade, emitting a chilling blade light that swept across the stone tablet. The stone tablet was first covered with ice, then exploded, and the strange fluctuations immediately disappeared.
In the fragments of the stone tablet, Tianyang saw some metal parts, devices that he could not name, and some things that looked like cables but were actually made of plant fibers.
Obviously, there is some kind of device inside this stone tablet. Unexpectedly, this device is still able to function.
After the device in the stone tablet was destroyed, the warriors finally returned to normal. They no longer heard strange noises, and found that their arms were not rotten. Looking at the stone statue in front of them, they did not find anything abnormal.
After resting for a while and replenishing their food and water, the soldiers continued to move forward.
They walked around the stone statue and found a body not long after. The body was curled up in a ball, and judging from the clothes and armor, it should be a gold digger.
Seeing the body of the gold digger, Long Dan's heart sank. He murmured, "Could it be true that what Tian Yang said was true? Has the 'legacy' been discovered and taken away?"
Tianyang gestured for everyone to stay where they were, and he approached the body carefully. When he got to the front, he found that the body had turned into a mummy. The deceased might have encountered something horrible before he died, and the panic was still frozen on his face.
However, he did not notice anything unusual on the body, but he did not touch it rashly. He used his ice soul sword to cut open the dead man's backpack, and the contents slid out.
A lot of things dropped, including a water bottle, a field medical kit, expired high-energy food, and a diary.
Tianyang put on a glove, picked up the diary, opened it, and he could understand the words inside.
It was further confirmed that this was a gold digger from behind Clough Gate.
"How is it?" Long Dan asked when he saw Tian Yang coming back, "Does he have anything suspicious on him, anything related to the 'legacy'?"
Tianyang shook his head: "No, as for his origins, this diary may have clues."
He had checked the diary to make sure there was no danger, and now casually tossed it to Longdan.
Long Dan took it and flipped it open at random. On the first page, huge words appeared: God's Legacy! Xu Huan found the clue!
"Damn it, they are here for God's Legacy as well." Long Dan cursed.
Moonlight came closer and saw the same words, and said, "So, a gold digger has been here before."
Tianyang said: "Otherwise, how could the 'key' above be
Drifting out the door?"
Moonlight glanced at Longdan and said, "You should be prepared. This trip may be in vain."
Long Dan gritted his teeth and said, "Who cares? I'm already here. Even if the 'inheritance' has been taken away by someone, I'm going to go in and take a look first!"
He looked at the building that was getting closer and closer. From here, he could already see that the building had many tall towers. There seemed to be windows on the towers, but the windows were very small. So, it seemed that they were defense towers.
"In that case, let's go."
Tianyang also wanted to find out the truth, so the team bypassed the corpse and continued to move forward.
Long Dan flipped through the diary as he walked and said, "The owner of the diary, along with a guy named Xu Huan, recruited some people and went into the Reverse Realm to explore."
"Here's the date. This happened three years ago."
"Oh, that Xu Huan is actually a woman, and she seems to be very knowledgeable about the history and culture of this world."
"The woman surnamed Xu said that she found some ancient documents and discovered through interpretation that the so-called seven gods believed in by the people of this world were originally just ordinary humans."
"But they gained something that gave them unparalleled wisdom, a strong body that was almost immortal, the power to open up the world, and knowledge that did not belong to this world."
"Before the Seven Gods left the planet, out of selfish motives, they etched their knowledge, experience, weapons, and abilities into something called 'Secret Symbols'."
"The seven generals kept their respective 'secret symbols' on the thrones they once sat on, and stored the thrones in a place called 'ancestral land'."
"Xu Huan believes that these so-called gods have mastered space technology. The so-called 'secret symbols' and 'ancestral lands' are all related to this technology."
"The so-called legacy of God is most likely these 'secret symbols'..."
Long Dan paused after reading this: "Wait, so, the legacy of God is not a specific treasure, but some kind of 'secret symbol'? Some kind of symbol, shit, that's very likely just the wishful thinking of the natives of the reverse world!"
Moonlight smiled gloatingly: "What kind of treasure do you think it is? Would the gods leave behind something so vulgar?"
Longdan suddenly felt depressed.
Tian Yang said in front: "You don't have to be so discouraged. Even if it's not the treasure you thought it was. But if you can find the 'secret symbol', it will be a huge fortune."
"Don't forget that the hydrostatic force field of the Deep Sea Castle was inspired by the technology of this world. If the 'Secret Symbol' is really etched with the knowledge of the Seven Gods, it may contain more advanced technology than the hydrostatic force field."
"When the time comes, once you sell this 'knowledge', are you still worried that you won't make any money?"
Hearing Tianyang's words, Longdan perked up again: "Tianyang, you are right, you are still knowledgeable."
As they talked and walked, they finally saw the building hidden deep in the petrified forest. The building was gray-blue in color overall, with a metallic luster under the orange-red light. Its surface was dotted with pieces of iron-black metal, which looked like fragments of armor. They made the walls of the building appear mottled, and because of the distribution, they formed some strange patterns. From a distance, it looked like a huge mural.
"Did you notice that, except for the main door, this building has almost no windows..." Tian Yang said as he observed, "It's just like a huge prison."
