The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 317: The ruins of the underground temple (the first update)

Views:

After getting up and leaving the governing hall, Kant wiped the oily corners of his mouth with a towel.

The food prepared for this banquet is indeed rich. Although it can be seen that the preparation was hasty, those fresh ingredients are indeed the delicacies they love when they can only eat air-dried meat and bread during the trek.

In fact, even the "Drehem" castle located in the sentinel oasis cannot eat such fresh ingredients.

A bountiful gift from the Samwaya Mountains.

Although the mountains are rugged.

But the richness of natural resources is amazing.

The Rhodoks are originally residents living in the mountains, and they have a good ability to adapt to the Sanwaya Mountains. Now, they have come to the Sanwaya Mountains and established their own new Aaron, a new town, completely It can make the most of the tough habits that the Rhodoks were once proud of, and their excellent ability to survive in the mountains.

Whether it was the exploration of the surrounding mountains or the development of the nearby mountains, these Rhodoks were able to do a job with ease, and even emptied the nearby threats with the help of the Ravenston, who were also suitable for fighting in the mountains.

For example, those carnivorous creatures, more terrifying demonized creatures, including the Gnolls scattered in the Sangwaya Mountains.

It has been cleaned up.

Even if there are occasional caught fish, it will not pose too much threat.

Almost every few days, a hunting team composed of Ravenston rangers and Rhodok skilled crossbowmen will clean up the surrounding hills and mountain streams again to ensure the safety of civilians when they move here.

Relying on the 5-meter-high city wall built along the rock formation on the mountainside and the 7-meter-high arrow tower, they moved very quickly, and as the trees on the surrounding hills were cut down, the space inside and outside the city wall was cleared, adding more Somewhat safe, as long as there is a danger that the hunting team cannot cope with, the infantry guarding the city wall can go to support at any time.

Wearing double-layer heavy chain armor, lined with iron leather armor and linen burqa, wearing a thick helmet, holding a heavy machete like a halberd in both hands, and a broad shield like a small door plate hanging on the back, and a Rhodok sword.

This is the burly and strong Rhodok Sergeant, as rocky as the Rhodoks.

Top tier 5 infantry.

The defense is extremely strong, even if it encounters the strongest infantry of level 6, the Nord royal guards can fight.

However, if fighting in the mountains, the throwing effect of the Nord royal guards' throwing axes will be weakened. These Rhodok sergeants form a phalanx of halberds to defend against the enemy, or hold broad shields and swords in close combat. Overwhelming the Nord royal guards, it can be called a fortress on the battlefield!

With such a high defense, even the demonized creatures couldn't break through the defense. They cooperated with each other, and with the excellent military formation, they were strangled in the cage.

It is a more powerful and ferocious demonized creature, which, together with the ranger and the sniper crossbowman, will die miserably as well!

At the cave on the side of the hill.

In order to prevent demonized creatures and demons from appearing inside, James specially arranged 10 strongest Rhodok sergeants to station on the small external platform.

There will also be patrols every day, holding torches and entering the temple ruins inside to patrol.

Be safe.

After all, this cave is connected to the ancient passage. Although the cave dungeon has been discovered, Kant’s exploration has not been fully effective. In the area of the cave dungeon, the underground river and the ancient passage lead to deeper depths, which have not yet been explored. The place I passed by was an unknown land!

Even if there are demons and demonized creatures, Kant will not be surprised. Therefore, before leaving, he also asked James to guard the place carefully to ensure that there will be no accidents.

Of course, James was extremely guarded and did not dare to relax in the slightest.

If there is danger.

Their towns will be hit the hardest!

The city wall was built slightly above the bottom of the mountain, just outside the cave. It can be said that if an enemy rushes out along the cave, it will touch the inside of the town.

Although there is still a circle of walls on the top of the mountain.

But the height is only half a meter, even with the help of the arrow tower, it is basically useless.

It's just to provide alert, lookout, and command.

Of course, fortunately, no enemies appearing in the ancient passage have been encountered so far, and under strict defense, the temple ruins underground are also very peaceful.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Holding torches, the Rhodoks entered the cave first and stepped into the ruins of the temple.

Behind is Kant, who is leading the civilians carrying 4 long ladders to follow behind. As the temperature drops, the cold air flows, and soon from the cave extending downwards, through the stone gate, and into the ruins of the temple .

"It's a miracle."

The mages from the Ernfas Empire exclaimed.

Even the well-informed lion knights raised their heads in astonishment, looking at the ruins in front of them with amazement.

They haven't been here yet, even the seven mages who have seen all this before, still have emotion on their faces, and they have a kind of admiration from the bottom of their hearts for the glory of the age of the gods and the ancient times.

In terms of architecture alone, in the age of the ancient gods, those descendants of the gods were no less than the Enfas Empire.

This is a brilliant, laudable achievement!

Inside the vast space, the huge statue is carved from the rock formation. Although it has become slightly blurred with the passage of time, you can still see the power of the victory period, which is enough to shock the soul.

On the rock formation above the head, there are two dim beams of light refracting the light, making the entire temple ruins dark at any time, but they can also vaguely distinguish objects at close range, just like the moonlight at night shrouded in dark clouds.

At the bottom two feet of the statue, there are coffins placed on the platform.

Next to it were two corpses lying flat.

Looking at it vaguely, one can see the golden robe and the black robe, the two are parallel to each other, and seem to be opposed to each other. Under the dim light released by the sun disc, there is a hint of mystery.

That is the goddess and witch killed by Kant.

And the inner coffin, which is covered in the inner and outer coffins made of stone, is cast in gold.

"Be careful!"

Bundak was beside him directing.

In front, the farmers are holding a 10-meter-long and 3-meter-wide, slightly rough wooden ladder, and carefully come to the side of the underground river. At the edge of the stone platform ahead.

The ladders of other farmers also leaned over, and they were easily placed in two sections, just blocking the underground river.

The simple wooden bridge based on wooden ladders has been built.

And the farmer climbed up carefully, and after making sure that the wooden ladder was stable, he walked to the stone platform and came back. Then he reported to Bundak and the others affirmatively, indicating that it had been successfully built.

"Master Kant, it's ready."

Bundak reports.

"Yeah." Kant nodded, but directed to the back: "Let the ranger go up and have a look."

"yes!"

Ten Ravenston Rangers responded immediately.

Holding heavy bows, they walked quickly to the underground river, stepped on the wooden ladder and walked lightly to the stone platform, cooperating with each other in an orderly manner, and some people pulled out the two-handed sword behind their backs and quickly checked the stone platform.

There was an abnormal situation there, that is, two women who had turned into corpses.

Be careful.

The mages were behind Kant, looking at the stone platform, their faces were also more dignified.

The 18 people discussed with each other in low voices, and their faces were uncertain about the lingering aura that permeated the surroundings, especially about the two corpses, a more intense discussion broke out.

The sound was so loud that it caught Kant's attention.

"What's going on?" Kant asked.

"We found something different."

The mages reported: "Those two corpses seem to be a collection of pure positive energy bodies and negative energy bodies. How should I put it, although they look like human beings, they are more similar to Master Bandak."

"I don't understand." Kant frowned.

"Well, it can be understood that you don't need to exercise, you are born with an extraordinary physique."

The mages explained: "Looking at Mr. Bandak, it still needs to be developed, and the two corpses have been developed, and they are truly powerful existences, but they can also feel that this pure power has almost dissipated, and it is lost again." With the loss of life, there is only the last bit of pure elemental power left."

"Understood." Kant shook his head, but in fact he still didn't understand spells.

"Safety!"

Ahead, 10 Ravenston rangers searched the stone platform and waved after confirming that there was no danger.

Kant turned his head and said to the mages: "Go and have a look." At the same time, he told the lion knights: "Follow closely, if you encounter danger, protect these mages first."

"Yes!" The lion knights responded immediately.

The physique of the mages is very poor.

It is estimated that even the physique of the third-level infantry is not comparable.

He can only be regarded as a healthy adult, and it is even more incomparable to Kant who has been instilled with the body of a knight.

What they are good at is academic study and study of spells, and they are not used to close combat, so it is said that mages are better at casting spells from a distance, rather than fighting with swords and swords at close range like knights!

Being careful, they stepped on the wooden ladder and stepped onto the stone platform on the opposite bank.

The stone platform under the feet is carved with circles of patterns.

Mysterious and majestic.

It seems to be the supreme ornamentation handed down from the age of the ancient gods.

Kant once saw all this in books, and after so many explorations, he now knows that this is the unique ornamentation of the sun god, and it is a symbol representing divine power.

But now he was stepped on by Kant.

He steps forward.

Lion riders and mages swarmed around.

On the outside is the Ravenston ranger holding a heavy bow and a two-handed sword.

If it weren't for the limited weight of the wooden ladder, those Rhodok sergeants who were wearing heavy armor and looked like a fortress would have come to protect them personally. After all, they are the infantry who are best at melee combat, and they are the best candidates to protect Kant.

But with the extraordinary Lion Rider, there won't be much problem here.

It's just that the mages squinted.

Looking at the two corpses, and then looking at the golden coffin inside the sarcophagus next to him, surprise appeared on his face, and he couldn't help exclaiming: "It turned out to be such a huge... strange thing!"
