Chapter 435 The Mottled Steel Forest


Chapter 435 The Mottled Steel Forest

Accompanied by the entire exploration team, there were cautious and slightly ethereal footsteps.

Surrounded by Hong Ye and all the knights, Lei Xiao, Orr, Gale and Old Calvin moved forward in the hidden space behind the statue of the God of War, the ancient ruins of the Titan clan.

After walking for about ten minutes, a giant, strange black shadow suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"What is that?!"

This sudden sight caused everyone's footsteps to freeze, and the entire exploration team immediately became nervous.

Using the night vision effect of Star Eyes, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and observed vaguely.

The object in front is about seven or eight meters high, which is obviously much smaller than the Titan War statue just now.

Judging from the vague outline, it seemed to be an oversized battle ax with the blade pointing downward and inserted into the floor tiles.

"Your Excellency, City Lord, don't be too nervous."

Lei Xiao nodded to Al and took his own steps.

"I understand."

Al also followed Lei Xiao's footsteps and started moving forward again.

At this point, the exploration team of nearly 200 people started moving again.

When the black axe-shaped outline entered the range of search magic, Lei Xiao noticed further.

Just like what he saw just now, this was indeed a giant battle ax with the blade pointing downwards and piercing into the ground.

I saw the dusty all-metal battle ax, reflecting mottled light, and it looked like it had been left here for a long time.

This is a double-edged axe, except for the blade that pierces into the ground.

The rusty surface on the other side is covered with a large number of clearly visible chipping marks, and is full of large and small gaps.

Even the upper part of the metal ax handle, which was comparable to a telegraph pole, had obviously been cut off a large part, obviously having experienced a tragic battle.

Needless to say, this giant battle ax, which is seven to eight meters long, is a weapon that can only be used by the Titans, who are giants.

"It's kind of interesting."

Looking up at the giant battle ax not far away, Lei Xiao was amazed and surprised to find out.

It turned out that the tomahawk stuck in the ground was not the only one.

Not far behind this giant double-edged ax, there were a large number of densely packed axes of various types.

Not only are there common battle axes such as long-handled axes, hatchets, throwing axes, and double-edged axes, but you can even see giant hammers the size of trucks.

All in all, it can be said that there is everything you need, at least hundreds of them.

The extremely spectacular scene was like a forest of battle axes composed of many giant axes, which made people feel awe-inspiring and shocked.

Just like the first giant double-edged ax that I saw at the beginning, almost all the surfaces of the tomahawks were covered with large and small chipping marks, and most of them were rusted and turned black.

Therefore, it may be more appropriate to use the mottled steel forest to describe everything in front of us.

"What a spectacular picture..."

Looking at the shocking scene in front of her, Tiya, who was following closely behind Lei Xiao, had her delicate face under the knight's helmet slightly parted with a look of surprise.

The other knights and elite soldiers also let out a continuous sound of exclamation, almost unable to believe their eyes.

The lost ruins, the rusty forest of giant axes, the extremely exquisite ancient wall carvings... all of these seem to be describing the same ancient story that has been lost to time, making people yearn for and curious about.

While everyone was shocked, the entire exploration team had already arrived in front of the steel forest.

Looking up at another rusty long-handled ax that was more than ten meters high in front of him, with most of the giant ax blade cut off, Lei Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath, his face full of awe.

This mottled picture is indeed silently telling an unknown history.

The main theme of this unknown history is war and legend, and perhaps bravery, friendship and passion.

It can be imagined that this Titan clan obviously experienced an extremely tragic war back then, and all of this has long been forgotten by time.

"Speaking of which, why are there so many Titan weapons here?"

City Lord Orr, who was also shocked, couldn't help but wonder after calming down slightly.

"Unfortunately, there are no relevant records in ancient books, but these giant axes have obviously been tempered by war. None of them exist intact. Obviously they cannot be an equipment warehouse..."

Calvin stroked his gray beard and said thoughtfully: "In addition, this hidden space is located behind the statue of the God of War in the temple. If my prediction is correct, it should be some kind of place similar to a sacrifice."< br>


"A place of worship?"

The look of doubt on the face of the city lord Orr became more and more obvious, and he murmured to himself: "Sacrifice weapons? It's really a strange custom."

"This is the Hall of Heroes of the Titans, or the ancestral temple of the Titans."

After getting Lei Xiao's permission, Hong Ye crossed his arms, took a step forward and said calmly: "What is being sacrificed is not the weapons, but the powerful Titans who once owned these weapons."

"Hall of Valor?"

After hearing this awe-inspiring term, everyone's awed and curious eyes focused on Hong Ye, who was dressed in red.

"Sir, do you know the origin of this place? Can you explain it in detail?"

I saw that the old magician Calvin's old face was full of expectation and curiosity, and he blurted out something eagerly.

"The so-called Hall of Heroes is the place where the Titan clan, the patriarchs and powerful men of the past generations worship."

After getting Lei Xiao's permission again, Hong Ye explained lightly: "The Titan clan is a race that respects the strong. Only the strongest of each generation will become the absolute leader of the clan, not like other people. Like most races, what matters is blood.”

"According to the tradition of the Titan clan, after experiencing many battles of blood and fire, the weapons in their hands have long become an inseparable part of their bodies. In other words, these battle axes inserted into the ground are equivalent to these The tombstones of the powerful Titans.”

I saw Hong Ye casually stroking the face of the giant mottled battle ax in front of me, while saying: "And those who are qualified to store weapons here are all well-known top powerhouses of the Titan clan."< br>


Looking at the mottled steel forest in front of him, Hongye's slender eyebrows frowned slightly, and continued: "Back then, I once saw another Titan Clan's Hall of Heroes. The scale there was much larger than this one, but it contained The weapons, even after a long period of time, are still as clean as new, shining with a dazzling cold light.”

"As for the many weapons here, you have already seen them, but they are a completely different scene."

"It is not difficult to see from this that this place obviously suffered a huge catastrophe that year, so that there was no time to maintain the weapons. This can also be supported by the fact that these weapons were seriously damaged."

Hong Ye took a deep breath and said with a stern face: "The weapons of the powerful Titans can suffer such a devastating blow. Their enemies back then were obviously very terrifying."

"An unknown and terrifying enemy? I didn't expect that the Titans still have such customs."

The old magician Calvin's old face was still full of surprise and shock. He hurriedly took out a parchment from his arms and started recording.

While everyone was talking, Lei Xiao had already arrived next to a giant battle ax and tentatively opened the weapon's attribute bar.

Immediately afterwards, a translucent interface that only Lei Xiao could see appeared in front of him.

"Sure enough, I can open the property bar."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and started to check.

[Name: Damaged Titan Axe] [Original: Roar of the Brave]

[Level: Damaged] [Original: Level 4 Epic (Purple)]

[Attack Strength: Damaged] [Original: ★★★★★]

[Additional Effect 1: Damaged] [Original: Magic Quenching "Physical Penetration Increased by 50%]

[Additional Effect 2: Damaged] [Original: Power of the Wind Elf "Smallly increases movement speed"]

[Note: The weapon of a certain fourth-level Titan clan strongman was chopped into two pieces together with the long-handled ax in his hand when faced with the attack of a powerful opponent. 】

After reading this one, Lei Xiao did not hesitate and opened the other one next to him.

[Name: Damaged Titan Double-Edged Ax] [Original: Dawn of the Brave]

[Grade: Damaged] [Original: Level 5 Extraordinary (Silver)]

[Attack Strength: Damaged] [Original: ★★★★★★]

[Additional Effect 1: Damaged] [Original: Searing Flame "When hitting the target, additional burning effect"]

[Note: The weapon of a certain fifth-level Titan clan strongman. Faced with the siege of opponents dozens of times more powerful than himself, this Titan clan strongman who had experienced hundreds of battles finally died of exhaustion. 】

"Are even the fifth-level experts doomed?"

After closing the attribute bar again, Lei Xiao was surprised and nodded thoughtfully.

Just like what Hong Ye said just now, this Titan clan did encounter an extremely powerful enemy back then, and the opponent's advantage was overwhelming.

"Why do you feel that what happened to the Titans is somewhat similar to what happened in the elven city ruins next to Shen Banxia's territory and the Shuiyue City Wing Human Tribe enchantment area?"

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao frowned slightly.

"After confirmation by Jiang Li, Ye Cang and others, it has been determined that the above two locations suffered devastating blows from unknown enemies in the blank era, which led to their eventual disappearance in the torrent of history."< br>


"And if this lost Titan clan was also destroyed in the blank era three thousand years ago, then a contradiction will arise."

Looking at the mottled giant ax blade in front of him, Lei Xiao's brows furrowed even more.

"After all, another unknown ruins not far from this Titan ruins has been confirmed to have been destroyed in the Blank Era."

"And just as I thought before, the Titans are an extremely unsociable and violent race. They will never build their own buildings next to other races, let alone allow other races' buildings. , so close to myself.”

"If these two ancient ruins were both destroyed in the blank era, then the only reasonable explanation I thought of before, the possibility that the two are not in the same era, is completely denied."

"Then, the old question reappeared. Why are these two completely unrelated ancient ruins so close to each other?"

Lei Xiao, whose head was full of question marks, was confused. He motioned to Al and others to split up to explore. At the same time, surrounded by Hong Ye, Knotweed and Ye Cang hidden under the cloak, he began to explore in the mottled steel forest. , pacing slowly.

During the walk, Lei Xiao was able to completely confirm it by asking Hong Ye.

Hong Ye was able to accurately judge based on the degree of weakness of those cyan magic arrays just now.

This ancient ruins of the Titan clan were indeed destroyed in the blank era three thousand years ago.

"Is this really true? Two ancient ruins that should never be adjacent to each other are strangely gathered together. It is really a puzzling thing."

Lei Xiao pondered in his heart and nodded, then said to Hong Ye: "As for the specific matters, let's talk about it when we go back."

Lei Xiao clearly understood that as a dragon with a long lifespan, it was still unknown what new clues Hongye might have about that unknown blank era.

Putting all doubts behind him for the time being, Lei Xiao cheered up and refocused his attention on the damaged and mottled battle axes around him.

By looking at the attribute columns one by one, Lei Xiao further discovered.

After a long time of baptism, although there is no significant difference between these mottled giant axes on the surface, there are actually some differences.

Among them, there are no weapons below the third level. The lowest level is also at the fourth level and accounts for the majority. Only about one-fifth of the weapons have reached the fifth level.

From the notes on the weapons, it can be seen that the users of fourth-level weapons are all above the fourth level, while the users of fifth-level weapons must be at the fifth level.

"In other words, do these nearly a hundred damaged weapons represent at least 20 or so fifth-level Titan clan powerhouses, and about 80 or so fourth-level Titan clan powerhouses? But even with such monstrous combat power, There is no way to escape the fate of destruction.”

Realizing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

In this way, Lei Xiao, surrounded by Hong Ye and others, walked and stopped all the way.

After walking around in this steel forest, I found that there was not even a single intact weapon here.

Out of curiosity, Lei Xiao learned about it by asking Hong Ye.

Because the Titans have a tradition of using ancestral weapons in times of crisis, hoping that their ancestors will give them strength.

Therefore, this is not an abnormality. On the contrary, it can be seen from the side that this place was indeed forced into a desperate situation.

"Okay, let's continue the investigation."

After learning this, Lei Xiao calmed down and slowly took his steps.

Not long after, when Lei Xiao came to the end of the Iron Forest and opened the attribute bar of the last giant ax, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his originally calm face. (End of chapter)
