Leaving the heart of the Death Mountain and entering parts of Switzerland. First of all, Rose and I can ride on the shadow of the night. The road is gradually uneven, and I find that the road we have been walking has been extending downwards, and the mountain walls on both sides of the road are gradually approaching, it seems to be connected to Together we have to walk on foot!
After walking for a few kilometers, as we thought, the mountains were really closed together, and the road we took became an underground passage. I really did not expect this exit to look like this! With the torch prepared before taking out the rose, we move on. This underground passage is not smooth. It is full of gravel and some things that shouldn't have appeared here. Some places even have a few meters of rock standing there. I have to climb to the top to get over. Fortunately, I have wings. Climbing is not a problem.
Rose found a red-red color in the gap between several rocks. It was too short to see what it was. It was not natural anyway. Holding the top of the red object and pulling it up, the object was crushed as soon as it was pressed hard. I patted the red powdery substance on my hand. "It looks like rust!"
Rose a hand and touch it a little, put it in front of the nose, sniff it, and then pat the broken pieces. "It's rust. It looks like something is buried underneath."
"Dig it out?"
"Yep."
伸 I reached into the crevice of the rock next to it, and lifted the rock aside, but a red stick of more than sixty centimeters was exposed, but the rock was still underneath. "You step back a bit, it looks like it's buried deeper. I'm going to dig bigger."
Rose took the torch in my hand and stood aside, I started fanning the rock and throwing it away. Soon this red object was dug out, and underneath it was inserted into a long object. Rose held the torch and walked back to illuminate the large pit, which is much clearer now.
I recognized it for a long time and eventually rose was recognized first. "Ah! It's a corpse!"
"The corpse?" I looked at the long object, and it really looked like a corpse according to Rose. The lower half of the strip was obviously two legs, but it seemed that the knight armor was too rusty and connected together. The arm of the corpse was no longer found, and the head was still there, but the problem was that the two-meter-long red stick was worn on the head. Obviously this was a corpse that was shot through the door and nailed to the ground by a spear. The tail of the spear was just protruding from the ground.
Rose squatted down and looked at the rocks beside the body. "It's a battlefield here. Someone has fought here. This is a player's body, and the death time is not more than five days. According to the speed of corpse erosion in the game, it is about 5 days."
"So it seems that the nearby rocks did not originally exist. It feels like someone blew up the rock on the top of the cave. You see, there is not even a stalactite here, and the rock formation on the top is too new. It ’s caused by surface shedding. "
所以 "That's why the road is so difficult."
I thought about it without taking off the corpse's helmet. If the corpse is opened for 5 days, the scene must be spectacular. For my appetite, I still don't want to watch it. "It may be that the Swiss player wanted to come in and was killed by the guard NPC, and even the top of the cave fell during the battle. We still leave him alone and move on."
"I'm worried about the front!" Rose said as she crawled out of the pit.
"Front?"
"Here it is not the collapsed central area. The collapse-causing center seems to be in front. If it is so serious here, will the front be completely sealed?"
看了 I looked at the passage ahead, "If you are right, it is likely to be blocked! Go, let us hurry up."
越来越 On the way, I think Rose's words are more and more correct, because the road is getting harder and harder. We almost crawled through the cracks in the gravel. It was really hard to imagine that this was once a spacious passageway for the army. After finally drilling through the gap between the two giant rocks, we really saw the separation wall made up of that rock. The tunnel really collapsed! And it was very tight, we basically could not find any gap.
Suddenly found that the rose was burning on the rocks with a torch. "what are you doing?"
我 "I'll see if there is a seam, if there is a wind, it will blow out." Was shaking the torch in her hand. Rose happily leaned up the torch, the flames were obviously leaning towards the gap in the rock as if to be sucked in. "I think I found it!"
I jumped in two steps and kissed her with a rose. "Catch the torch, I'll make my way."
Summoned Steel Claws and Trail Blazers to help, both of them are hole punching champions. Of course they are the most suitable. The Trail Blazers are now steel, with armor all over their bodies, like a giant armed caterpillar. The strong limbs of steel claws are also a good tool for tunnel digging. Unfortunately, the rose vine can't help, his penetrating power to the rock is limited, and although it can be dug, it is too slow.
The two big guys started to dig on the rocks. The rubble behind them was flying, and the rocks continued to fall, but not as fast as they did. Soon the relatively loose rocks were excavated, and the progress was significantly faster after the landslide stopped. In the rumbling noise, the Blazers first started moving forward, and the steel claws followed to clear some small debris. Rose and I are still afraid to follow up now, and gravel is constantly flying out of the hole, and now I must go into the bag.
After a few minutes, the gravel and sound stopped at the same time, and the steel claws ran out of it. "Dug it."
"Okay." I took back the steel claws and the trailblazers, and took the rose across the passage. The wall blocking us is more than 30 meters thick, but two tunnel experts have helped us complete a prototype tunnel with a diameter of more than 4 meters. I thought that two people were not trivial.
After crossing the wall, the puppet was still inside the cave, and it collapsed in the middle of the cave instead of the entrance. However, there are not as many rubbles as there are, and the road should be better.
The rumbling sound of water gradually appeared in the forward passageway of Yiyi Road, and the sound was louder as it moved forward, and it seemed to be approaching the entrance of the cave. As we approached the entrance, the light gradually lit up, and the torch was extinguished by us. The passage on this side is much wetter than that on the other side. The ground is very slippery and watery, walking on it is like skating!
I turned the last corner, and a white curtain of water appeared in front of me. No wonder the passage is so wet that the exit is behind the waterfall! Fortunately, she was wearing armor. If Rose still used her mage robe, she would probably lose her soup! Put on the helmet and pull down the mask, and walk slowly to the waterfall. First take the car magic dragon gun into the water to test the impact. Fortunately, it seems that the waterfall is not high, or we are not far from the top. The next step was to reach out and look carefully, and it turned out that I was wise. The height of the waterfall is nearly 100 meters. We are relatively high in the middle of the waterfall. What's more is that the opposite cliff is also a mountain cliff. The distance between the two cliffs is less than 3 meters.
There is a hole on the opposite side of the mountain wall slightly higher than this side. I raised my hand and shot the dragon tendon. The cable head was stuck in the rock. After pulling a few times, there was no problem. Then he came back, hugged the rose, and jumped out. Once you jump up, your feet are immediately adjusted to the front of you, and the cliff across from the waterfall is the opposite cliff. Your feet cushion your body on the cliff. The control of the dragon's tendons started to take up the line, and by the way we pulled us up. After entering the opposite passage, I looked back at the position we just came out, and almost could not find it. The concealment was really good.
的 The passage on our side is also a tunnel, but it is only over ten meters long. The exit was covered by a large number of plants, and we carefully opened the plants blocking the opening to find that we were in a forest, followed by a and up the cliff.
I walked out of the hole with Rose, and we started to worry about where to go. The task of the Star Ring (see Chapter 2 of Volume 2 for those who do n’t remember the task) said that the quest can only be triggered at the Temple of Earth Mother of Oska, a permanent neutral place, but I only know that this permanent neutral place refers to Switzerland . As for whether Oska refers to a forest or a valley or a city, I don't know at all, let alone the Mother Earth Temple!
Rose reminded me: "Isn't the Mother Earth familiar with you? Go in and ask her where the temple is?"
"Why didn't I think of it! Wait for me for a while." Open the space door and enter the realm of the goddess of the earth. I ran into the palace of the Mother Earth and soon found the Mother Earth who was playing chess with the giant god.
He saw that I ran in, and the Mother Earth was very strange. "Do you have something?"
恩 "Well!" I quickly walked over and said, "I want to find somewhere with you."
"Ask me?"
"Yes. I want to know where you are in the temple of Oska, a place of permanent neutrality, preferably with detailed coordinates or maps."
"How can I know where the shrine is?" The mother goddess looked at me and said that she thought she should have known the location.
"That's the Mother Earth Temple! Why don't you know?"
"Why should I know?"
_________________________________________
"Aren't you the Mother Earth Mother? Don't you know where your temple is?"
"Of course!" Mother Earth said with certainty: "The temple was not built by me, how could I know where it is?"
"But you are sacrificed there!"
The Mother Earth Mother thought for a moment: "That's what happened to the races themselves. They worshiped my power and built my temple. But I don't know! It seems that the famous people have many portraits, many Like to hang portraits of celebrities in their own homes. Do these celebrities know where each of their portraits are? "
"This ...!" Habitual thinking kills people! We have always used to think that the temple was built for God, but no one has asked God if he wants it, and no one has told God where and where to build a temple for him!
"This is where we live now. The temple is built by other creatures, and it has nothing to do with me. If you want to find the temple, you should ask the locals. Since they built it up for their suffering, they must be very hurt Famous, even if the road is broken, there should be at least some clues, such as rumors, stories, etc. Go and investigate nearby, at least more than I can tell you. "
"Thank you, I won't disturb you anymore." Hurry to leave the palace of the Mother Earth and go back to the space door.
怎么 样 "How's it? Where is the Mother Earth Temple?" Rose asked me as soon as she saw it.
I told her the words of Mother Earth. "The Mother Earth suggested that we ask the locals."
"Let ’s hurry up, the sun is going down!"
"It's okay, there's no haunting here!"
Rose immediately laughed when I heard this.
"What's so funny about this?"
"I was thinking of something so I laughed."
"What did you think of?"
"You just said that there are no ghosts, I was thinking that ghosts should be right because we are afraid of us."
"Why?"
"Fool!" Rose struck my helmet below. "You think! I'm a resurrection mage who specializes in bringing dead people to life. You're an evolutionary profession of soul-stealing mage who specializes in killing living people. If any ghost meets us, it will be a big trouble. I resurrect him, You kill him again. Then he comes to life, isn't it bad enough? "
"Hahahaha! It is scary for us to say that our husband and wife are so scary that they can make people live and die."
Rose stopped laughing and said, "But what we need now is to find a living person to ask the next way."
"I don't have to be alive. I took a paraprofessional psychic when I changed jobs last time. There is a soul reading technique that can ask the corpse and the necromancer for directions."
"But there aren't any personal photos here!"
"Let's find it while walking! Whoever comes first asks someone."
We walked some distance in the woods and we really found our target. There was a dead body on the tree beside the forest path nailed to the trunk by an arrow. It looks like this is a set that is not the player's body, otherwise it should be slowly decayed and refreshed. If it dies, it will not become a skeleton.
I walked over and used Soul Reading against the skeleton, but it had no effect, indicating a failure. Zero-level skills have a lower success rate! After using it for more than twenty consecutive times, it finally succeeded, and a light blue and white light shone on the skeleton's body. Rose exclaimed, "You succeeded?"
"Can you see?"
She nodded strongly. "can see."
"It seems that this skill is not for me to hear the dead talk, but for the dead to communicate with normal creatures!"
After a while, the skull made a faint sound, but its mouth did not move. "Who is calling me?"
"it's me."
"What do you have?"
"I want to ask for directions. Do you know the Mother Earth Temple of Oska, a place of permanent neutrality?"
"Now you are standing in a place of permanent neutrality. This country is a place of permanent neutrality. I know there is one in the Mother Earth Temple, but I do n’t know the specific location. That Oska may be Oska Forest."
"Where is that Oska Forest?"
"I don't know, I just know that there is such a forest famous for producing sulfur. I don't know exactly where."
Rose interposed and asked, "Do you know how to get out of this forest?"
"Go forward along the road in front of me. When you meet a particularly thick tree, pass to the left, then go straight and you can go out."
好的 "Okay, thank you for your help. Do we need to bury you?"
"Grateful!"
We quickly dug a pit to bury the skeleton, and then started to move along the road. Sure enough, after walking far, I encountered a big tree, but the left side of the big tree seemed to be a dense jungle, and the road led to the right.
"What's going on?" I looked around.
Rose looked down the road. "Maybe this is a beastly path, so only go around in the forest. You have to leave the road to get out."
"What about us?"
"You still go up and make sure?"
I climbed up to the top of the tree and flew up to look around, good guy, the vast forest could not see the head. Jump back to the ground. "No, you can't see the border!"
"Then we have to go this way, should we fly from the sky faster?"
"Ok."
Summoned Lucky to go up with Rose, Lucky rushed into the blue sky and flew in the direction that the skull said. As a result, the scene around him didn't fly far away suddenly changed, and the forest was over! "I rely! It's an illusion!" But at least the skull said the right direction.
I fell back to the ground to put away the luck, put on the night shadow and ran to the nearest city, where the castle can already be seen.
建筑 European cities are very different from Asian cities in terms of architectural style. Chinese cities generally have city walls outside the city, and the entire city is surrounded by the city walls. However, European styles are different. Only major cities are surrounded by city walls like Asia, and ordinary cities have no city walls. In the center of the ordinary city there is a sturdy defensive castle where usually only important people live. Outside the castle are private houses scattered around the castle. Once there is a fight, the people in the city will quickly hide into the castle, leaving the house alone. Most of the cities established by players have built walls in the Oriental style, while the system cities retain the original style. The city in front of it is obviously a systematic city. The open houses are scattered around the castle without protection. It looks small and should be called a village.
After turning on the translation system, we went directly to the city. Anyway, our armor from head cover to toe should be no one to see that we are not Swiss. Besides, Switzerland is a neutral country. The national war has nothing to do with them. Even if you know that there are people from other countries, there will be no reaction.
刚 As soon as we entered the city, a team of cavalrymen suddenly leaned in from the side and stopped us. As soon as I pulled the reins, Night Shadow actually stood up with two hind feet, and kicked his front legs in the air twice before lowering them.
的 The knight who stopped us first spoke. "Which lord's unit are you? How did you get here?"
"We don't belong to any lord." The answer was roses.
"Is that a ranger?"
"What is a Ranger?"
"A ranger is a free knight who is not loyal to any lord. If you are not attached to any temple or lord is a ranger." This knight who stopped us answered me very patiently.
The knight next to him looked younger and rode a dark horse. "Look, your equipment is not as good as the game! How can you not even understand these common sense?"
I was also taken aback by the words of this knight. I thought this was a team of NPCs, and now it seems obvious that they are players. "We rarely walk around and have been focusing on leveling, so it's not clear. But we have a temple."
"You are the knights of the temple ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The leading knight said:" Is there a pass? The knights of the temple need documents to go out for business. This is a guild jurisdiction with a lord. Armed personnel must not be allowed to pass casually. "
"I just want to know how to get to the Earth Mother Temple in Oska, I just entered the city to ask for directions."
"The Oska Forest is on the Italian border. Why are you here? You have to cross the whole country to get there!"
gosh! "How do I get there?"
刺 "Bayonet, do you know how to get there?" The leading knight asked the knight who hadn't spoken beside him.
"There is a long distance over there. It ’s not good to run over. It ’s better to use a teleportation array. It ’s better to teleport directly to the city of Olynaire. It ’s Oska Forest outside the city. line."
"Border?" I suddenly thought of a bad thing. The countries in the game are separated from each other by dangerous areas such as oceans, mountains, and super monster zones. This Mother Earth Temple is on the border between Switzerland and Italy. Could it be said that the Temple is a barrier to isolate the country? How dangerous is this Earth Mother Temple? The last line of hope for Pozheng is to prove: "Don't tell me that the Mother Earth Temple is a checkpoint for two countries."
The young knight on the black horse said, "Unfortunately, you guessed it."
"Did anyone go in before?" I continued to ask.
The leading knight poured me cold water again. "Many people entered, but none of them came out, and they all hung back."
Sweat! Now I know why the old guy who lied to money called me to come back after level 500. At first he thought he was making a big deal. Now it seems that he has underestimated the danger here, otherwise he must recommend me to come back after level 800. .
