The river is Styx and the lake is Styx. The island in the center of the lake is like a tomb emerging from the lake. In front is a thousand-meter-high monument-shaped solitary peak, and behind it is a huge steamed bun-shaped hill. Whether it is the monument-shaped peak or the steamed bun-shaped hill, there is no tree. They are all bare black rocks.
There is a building standing on the bun-shaped hill, with huge stone pillars and majestic dome, which looks a bit like an ancient temple. However, part of it collapsed.
These are the sights Xia Lei saw when he got off the boat and stepped onto the pier of the island. He didn't know where Medesa was imprisoned on this island, and he couldn't sense its existence. He glanced at the lonely peak, then at the steamed bun-shaped hill, and finally decided to go to the temple to see it first.
To get to the temple, one had to go around the monument-shaped solitary peak. Xia Lei was careful along the way, guarding against any possible crises. When he met a dragon, he was almost fooled into being eaten by it. How could he not be careful when he arrived at Medesa's territory
Black mist surged on the lake, and the small boat sank to the bottom of the lake and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Explorers from afar, look over here." Just when Xia Lei walked to the side of the lonely peak and was about to walk towards the steamed bun-shaped hill, a woman's voice suddenly came. The whispering voice was the same one he heard by the lake.
Xia Lei followed the sound and saw the existence that made the sound at a glance.
It was a woman. She was pressed under this solitary peak, with only her head exposed, and her body from the neck down was entirely buried in the mountain. She looks very young, with long black hair and beautiful features. With such a beautiful head, who would associate her with a turtle
Xia Lei didn't think of a turtle, but he thought of another character who existed in the mythical world, the Monkey King, the Monkey King. The Great Sage was suppressed in this way back then, but here it was replaced by Medusa. He had imagined the scene of Medusa being imprisoned, but he never expected it to be like this.
"Explorers from far away, come here, I can sing you the best hymn at this time. Your bravery, your handsomeness, everything about you makes me admire and admire you. Come here, come here." Mei Dai Sha's voice had a little more strange magnetism.
When this sound reached his ears, all the vigilance and defensiveness in Xia Lei's heart disappeared, replaced by a wonderful feeling. He suddenly felt that he was a young man in love, and the person under the lonely peak was not Medusa, but his girlfriend. She was lying on the soft grass, like a delicious fruit, waiting for him to taste it. With the wonderful feeling and beauty, he couldn't control his feet and walked towards Medusa.
"Come on, come on, I am your beloved lover, all your desires will be satisfied, and you will become the happiest person in the universe..." Medusa's voice.
Fuzzy energy suddenly surged into the brain, and all the blanks and fantasies, as well as the feeling of satisfied desires, disappeared in an instant. Xia Lei stopped and looked directly at Medusa not far away. At this time, his eyes were no longer blurred and were as clear as a spring.
Medusa's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, but then she revealed a sweet smile, "Explorers from far away..."
"Stop, it sounds uncomfortable." Xia Lei interrupted her, "The legendary goddess of love and desire, there is actually no difference between you and that guy upstream, both are liars. Do you really want to eat me? You guys? Aren't you afraid of offending me and killing you?"
"Hehe, okay, come on, come on, come and kill me. Being imprisoned here is worse than death anyway. If you kill me, I will be freed." Medusa's face was full of excitement and joy. smile.
"Are you really not afraid?"
Medesha blinked her charming big eyes and said, "Little brother, do you think I'm scared when I look like this?"
Xia Lei didn't go over, he just wanted to be stronger and give Medisa a warning not to take advantage of him. But he didn't expect that instead of being afraid, Medesa asked him to kill her. How could he kill an ancient creature imprisoned here
"You can survive that stupid reptile and come here. You are really an extraordinary person." Medesa's voice was crisp, "Come here and let me take a good look at you. You are The most handsome man my sister has ever seen."
Xia Lei didn't move, "Just give up, I'll be your mouth if I move forward a little bit."
"It's not romantic at all," Medusa said.
The illusion in front of me suddenly disappeared. There was no solitary peak thousands of meters high at all, only a huge turtle imprisoned on the rocky ground by a stone chain. Its head is no smaller than that of a dragon. It is wide open and its mouth is full of sharp serrations. With such a mouth, let alone cannibalism, even a tank can chew it up and eat it.
The location has changed, the characters have also changed, but the routine is the same. Medusa and Long both want to trick Xia Lei into their mouths.
In this way, a ferocious and terrifying turtle was actually imagined by the aborigines of the dark world of death to become a goddess representing desire and love. This shows the terrifying power of faith. Also, there is often a terrible truth hidden under the beautiful appearance.
"That stupid reptile must have said a lot of bad things about me to you, right?" Medusa said.
Xia Lei said: "That's not true, it just reminds me to be careful about you."
Medesha's voice suddenly became deep and terrifying. It was no longer the cooing girl's voice. The voice was like the voice of a demon in the abyss, "It actually goes against me for an outsider like you! Huh!" "
With a cold snort, the lake surface around the island in the center of the lake suddenly became rippled. Countless little skeleton fish swam toward the island, and the scene was extremely terrifying.
Xia Lei was not fooled. He said calmly: "Of course it will remind me, because I reached a deal with it. It will help me extract a few people from the past, and I will help him unlock the shackles on it."
"What did you say?" Medesha's voice suddenly changed and turned into that nice voice again.
Xia Lei said: "I believe you heard it clearly."
Medesha was silent for a moment before saying: "You come to me, what do you want from me?"
Xia Lei said: "I have some questions, and I am looking for some special blood crystals. If you can provide me with this information, I can also help you unlock the shackles that imprison you."
"Why do you want me to believe you?"
Xia Lei said, "You don't have to believe me, I'll look for clues myself." After saying that, he pulled away and walked towards the bun-shaped hill. Now that we are on this island, we must visit the temple on the hill.
"Wait!" Medusa stopped.
Xia Lei stopped and turned around to look at the terrifying giant turtle, "Have you changed your mind?"
"You help me unlock the stone lock first, and then I'll tell you." Medusa said.
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Since you and Long are both good at lying, I decided to give you the goods first, then the money. You have to tell me some useful information before I can unshackle you."
"I don't believe you," Medusa said.
"You have no choice. Think about it and then talk to me." Xia Lei walked towards the temple on the top of the hill.
"I'll tell you if you unlock a stone lock!" Medusa shouted.
This time Xia Lei didn't stop. This was not buying food at the vegetable market, and he could still bargain like this. He has given conditions, and he will only make a deal with Medesha if she meets his conditions.
Medusa suddenly said: "The six blood crystals you are looking for are in the temple on the top of the mountain."
Xia Lei was stunned for a moment and stopped in his tracks.
Medusa said: "This is what you said. If I tell you those blood crystals, you will help me unlock the stone locks on my body. I have already told you. When you come back, you can ask me whatever questions you want, as long as I’ll tell you everything I know.”
Xia Lei felt a little bit cheated in his heart, because when he came to this island, he had thought that the six rune blood crystals might be on this island, and now it seems that they are really on this island. . However, he originally wanted to go to that temple, so he could find it even if Medesa didn't tell him, but now it was Medesa who made a deal with him.
"What do you want to know?" Medusa asked anxiously.
Xia Lei said: "Is that temple your temple?"
Medusa said: "Of course not, it is much older than me."
"Whose temple is that?"
"I have no idea."
"you do not know?"
Medesa said: "I told you, it is much older than me. There is no god enshrined in it. There is only a faceless rock statue. I don't think it is any god."
A faceless rock statue
Xia Lei was stunned on the spot.
"After I was imprisoned, something came to this island and left those rune blood crystals on the island. I asked the dead man to see it, so I know that those rune blood crystals are you What he is looking for. It's a pity that he can't pry off those rune blood crystals, otherwise you wouldn't have to go and get them. I will dedicate them to you with my own hands." Medusa's voice was clear and pleasant, with a pleasing tone. .
Xia Lei said: "I'll go up and take a look first, and then I'll come back to talk to you after I'm sure."
"Asshole! You are a despicable liar!" Medesa cursed angrily.
Xia Lei ignored him. He sped up and rushed towards the top of the hill, leaving an afterimage on the gentle slope made of black rocks.
On the top of the hill near the temple, there are roads paved with stones. They are not ordinary rocks, each one is a stone of the world. It extends along the hillside to the interior of the temple.
Xia Lei also discovered that not only the steps in front of him, but also the stone pillars and domes of the temple were made of World Stone.
The civilization of the Eldar people was developed based on the World Stone, and only the Eldar people would use the World Stone to build important buildings. When such a temple appeared in the abyss of desire, Xia Lei suddenly understood - he had reached the end of his mission.
