After resting, everyone continued on their journey. They kept moving between buildings and encountered some monsters from time to time, but Tianyang cleaned them up.
When they came to a window and didn't see the chain, Shi Huo said, "From here, we have to go downstairs and walk over the ground."
Passersby already knew what the situation was like on the ground, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Tian Yang said: "I will go down to investigate first, and you can come down when it is safe."
Shi Huo nodded, took out a bundle of ropes, fixed them on the window, and threw them downstairs: "If there is no danger, just shake the ropes. Don't make any noise, or you may attract monsters."
"good."
Tianyang held the rope with one hand and slid down with the help of it. After a moment, he reached the ground.
There was a street under the building, and there were weeds everywhere. One could feel that the air below was relatively humid. Tianyang did not turn on the light, but instead used his senses to make sure there were no foreign objects around before shaking the rope and sending a signal. A moment later, everyone else slid down.
Tianyang made a gesture and whispered, "Advance according to the previous formation."
Liu Ya nodded and winked at Shi Huo and others, indicating that they should lead the way, while he would walk among them to protect them.
Fusheng put a star barrier on everyone, and carefully applied the "Immortal Armor" to himself, then took out a short hand axe to use as a weapon.
Tian Yang took a look and remembered the Thunder Axe he got from the War Ghost that day. He took it out and gave it to the fat man: "I'll lend it to you. After inputting the star essence, it can release lightning with great power."
Fusheng nodded happily. Although his hand axe was also a material weapon, it was not very powerful and was only used for self-defense.
Normally it is not his turn to take action. With Yue Guang, Liu Ya and others around, Fatty, as the fortress, just needs to do his job well.
But now that we are in danger, it is always good to have an extra powerful weapon.
Tianyang looked around and remained alert.
According to his original idea, after he got down to the ground and headed to the Snake Temple, he would probably have to face a fierce battle on the way.
He had decided that if the situation became too dangerous, he would find a hidden place to open the door and let Yama come to help.
As for what other people think of Yama, he doesn't care.
However, the development of things was very unexpected.
They didn't encounter any monsters along the way, and even Shi Huo and his companions looked confused.
Finally, we arrived at the Snake Temple.
It was just like what Tianyang saw in the illusion, a relic. Moreover, here, above everyone's head, between the black rock dome, there was actually a gap, which allowed the sunlight from the surface to shine in and fall obliquely on this ruined palace.
With the help of the light, Tianyang saw that the palace was already half-collapsed, but the walls that had not collapsed still had exquisite carvings and huge gems inlaid on them. It can be imagined that before the city fell, this should have been a magnificent and majestic building complex.
Standing outside the palace, Tianyang could feel a wave of energy coming out from time to time. The wave was cold and gloomy, and it faintly revealed a sense of despair, like a dying beast, ready to fight to the death.
It looks like that thing is not in very good condition.
Tianyang took a few steps forward and said to Shihuo: "You don't
We are about to go in. Just stop here. You can go back first. I have memorized the way back. I can go back by myself. "
Shi Huo and his companions were not ready to enter the Snake Temple. They nodded and said, "Then we will leave first. Be careful."
Tian Yang nodded imperceptibly, and then said to Liu Ya and the others, "I understand that you want to save Yue Guang, but your ranks are too low."
"It's very dangerous in the Snake God Temple. My suggestion is that you should go back with Shi Huo and the others, or wait outside the temple. If you go in and a fight breaks out, you will only become a burden."
"If the moonlight returns but she can't see you anymore, I don't think she will be happy."
Liu Ya and Fatty exchanged glances, and then Fusheng, as a representative, said, "Then we will wait for you outside. If you need support, just call us."
"Okay." Tianyang agreed readily, then took Xingluo into the palace.
Passing through the gate that had not yet collapsed, there was a square inside. Under the sunlight, one could see weeds everywhere on the square, with some puddles scattered around.
Tianyang gave an order to Xingluo, who raised his hand, and the ruby on the 'Flame' ring flashed. Seven or eight fist-sized fireballs appeared around him. After they expanded to the size of a human head with a whoosh, they fell towards the surrounding grass.
Boom boom boom.
The fireball exploded, red leaping, and even though the air was humid, the grass was still ignited by the fire. The flames gradually spread, but unfortunately they were stopped by puddles, otherwise the entire square would have been burned.
Even so, the fire was still getting more and more intense, and the temperature continued to rise. Driven by the thick smoke and flames, the whole square was rustling, and snakes of all sizes, poisonous and non-venomous, all swam towards a building behind the square as if they were running for their lives.
Tian Yang took a quick look and felt that there were probably at least eight hundred of those cold-blooded animals, if not a thousand. Some of them were burned to death in the flames, otherwise there would have been even more.
No wonder Shi Huo and the others called this place the Snake Temple. There were simply too many snakes. At this moment, from the building in the distance, an invisible but bone-chilling wave suddenly surged.
It swept across the square and passed by Tianyang and Xingluo.
Tianyang saw a thin layer of frost on his clothes and the back of his hands. As for the flames in the square, they were almost extinguished by the wave. The burnt grass and snake corpses were covered with a layer of frost, which then melted into water.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
In the building ahead, there was a faint panting sound, as if a hungry behemoth was hiding in the building, waiting to devour the intruders.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
The sound became louder and louder, more and more obvious, and clearer and clearer. Just the sound of the panting was enough to make one's scalp tingle.
boom!
The door of the building in front suddenly exploded, the heavy door flew out and fell to the ground, and a hurricane rushed out, blowing across the square. In the howling wind all around, the black grass ash and snake corpses were all rolled up into the air, forming a black cloud that blocked the sunlight from the sky.
After a while, the wind stopped and the charred snake corpses fell to the ground with a crackling sound, as if it was raining snakes.
Xing Luo had disappeared from Tianyang's side, and the female knight had gone to find a sniper position by herself.
The sun draws out the moon
Guang Hexinghan stared at the empty gate of the building. He saw two balls of blood light igniting in the darkness inside the gate, and then a horrible, huge, beast-like howl came out from the gate.
Tianyang immediately felt his breathing becoming uncomfortable, and the star energy suddenly appeared, fighting against the invisible pressure.
Outside the Snake Temple, Liu Ya and Fu Sheng heard the howling and felt dizzy, their hearts pounding, and their minds in disarray. When the howling stopped, their legs went limp and they almost fell to the ground.
The two exchanged glances, and saw the horror in each other's eyes. The screams alone made them almost unable to stand. No wonder Tianyang said that they would only be a burden if they went in. Obviously, this was not a battle that they could participate in at their level.
Farther away, He Shihuo and others who were running on the street heard the faint howling coming from the Snake Temple. They were so scared that their whole bodies were shaking and their teeth were chattering.
This is because humans, as a species, are instinctively afraid of the things in the Serpent Temple and are powerless to resist.
After the howling stopped, Tianyang saw a dark shadow squeeze out of the building.
Its body was too big, and the door of the building was obviously too small, so the thing hit the door hard twice. After two times, there was a loud bang, and a large part of the outer wall and the door collapsed together, allowing it to swim out of the building and appear in the bright sunlight again.
It seemed like it was not used to the sunlight outside. When it was illuminated by the light, it raised a hand covered with green snake scales to block it, then retracted and avoided the beam of light cast from the sky.
Even though it was wandering on the edge of the light column, Tianyang could still see clearly that it was a creature with a human-like upper body and a snake-like lower body.
Just like what he saw in the illusion, this thing had a female face with very delicate features. Even after being magnified dozens of times, it still looked beautiful.
But if you connect this face to other places, it won’t look beautiful, it will just look scary.
Her long hair was spread out on her pretty face, but at the ends of those thick black hairs were flat, snake-like heads.
Its body parts from the waist up are the same as those of humans. Tianyang can see the attractive belly button, the majestic and towering breasts, and the delicate collarbone...
However, it was also covered with green scales. Those snake scales covered its hands, wrapped around its back, extended to its chest, and gathered towards its waist. Below its navel, it was covered with snake scales inch by inch, extending all the way to the end of its huge snake tail.
Behind it, there was a pair of rotten wings spread out. The original white feathers on them had almost all fallen off, and the remaining small part of the feathers had turned into a dirty yellow. The wing bones exposed to the air could be seen, and they were clinging to feathers that could fall off at any time.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
From the mouth of that delicate female face came a hungry gasp, and human words came out of it: "What a nice smell, what a nice smell. You smell so good, just like the barbecue I ate before. I'm so hungry, so hungry."
"Give it to me, give it to me, give you to me!"
Like an incoherent madman, it suddenly pounced out and rushed into the light fearlessly, quickly passing through the square and rushing towards the sun.
It opened its mouth, revealing slightly curved gray-white fangs in its tender, bright red lips. And a bloody, forked, huge snake tongue...
