Chapter 754 Dark Gold Sarcophagus
Otis stood at the end of the bridge. This was called a bridge, but it was actually the floor of the room. It was just that the two sides were gone, leaving only a road less than fifty centimeters wide in the middle.
Honglian said: "If you want to go to the other side, you have to go here. As long as you walk up, you will be attacked by the Lord of the Sea at the bottom of the pool."
"Yeah." Otis just said He responded and walked onto the small bridge. He didn't walk very fast. He seemed to be walking easily every step of the way, but in fact he was secretly on guard. When we walked to the middle of the bridge, something strange happened.
Two fluorescent green and blue halos suddenly lit up in the dark and deep pool. Standing on the bridge and looking down, these two halos looked like two huge eyes looking at them. .
Guren had already put the knife in his palm. Suddenly, the pool water below rolled violently, and then the two halos of light got closer and bigger from the bottom of the pool. I heard a huge sound of water, and saw a misty mass jumping out of the pool.
Before Otis could even move under the light, Hong Lian pulled out his sword and rushed forward. The holy sword in his hand danced twice, and the silver mirror-like blade made a 'buzzing' sound. There was a blue light.
This blue light is like flame and water, and it is extremely obvious in the dark space. Hong Lian held the hilt of the sword in his left hand, and put his right hand behind the sword. His whole body was like a blue flying arrow, suddenly piercing into the mist.
'Woo...' A low, strange cry came out from the mist, and it was hard to tell what the sound was like.
Guren stood on the giant beast and could not see her eyes, but the touch from the knife showed that she had stabbed the monster. She quickly raised the knife with her backhand, and at this time the halo on the knife had disappeared. Blue turned to red. The red halo was like scarlet thorns. Honglian grabbed the knife and danced wildly in front of her, forming a bloody mist.
In the blink of an eye, the hundred red blades had been slashed out. At this time, her moves changed again, and the blade changed from the red blade back to the blue blade. I saw this empty underground hole like a black curtain, with a straight blue light cutting through the middle. Honglian's Holy Spirit Sword cut out a huge blue arc and cut into the water mist.
Then before she could retract the slash, a huge strange force hit her, as if she had been hit by an extremely overbearing water whip, and her whole body was drenched with water. Then a damp and cool breeze blew, and she suddenly felt a tightness in her heart. Before her whole body could recover from the force of the whip just now, she saw a dark figure in the misty water coming towards her.
Otis quickly grabbed Honglian and threw her up. At the same time, he struck the black shadow with a slash of the blade in his hand. This series all happened in a very short period of time. Otis shouted softly: "Doomsday Dragon Mark!" He pushed lightly with one palm, and a very long snake-shaped light dragon flew out from his arm, and with a fierce movement He stretched out his huge dragon wings of light and pounced on the mist.
The light dragon immediately caught the monster in the mist, and Otis also saw some of the faces of the Lord of the Sea. I saw its black skin, its body as flat as a shuttle, and it seemed to have long limbs on both sides of its body, just like the skin of a crab, but what I saw in front of me was definitely not a huge crab.
The light tornado rolled around Panoyin, the Lord of the Sea, and immediately turned into a dragon seal of light, imprinted on its black skin. Otis jumped forward and punched, but a whip whip came over and blocked his punch. Otis only felt a huge shock in his body, and the power in his body was rolled over by the whip. He was surprised that it still had such power after being affected by the Doomsday Dragon Mark!
Otis launched several attacks in succession, and finally punched it on the back. This punch actually pushed the Lord of the Sea, Panoyin, from mid-air back to the bottom of the pool.
When Honglian saw her master jumping up on the bridge, before she could say anything, Otis said first, "Quickly, we can't beat it!" After hearing this, Honglian hurriedly ran to the other side of the bridge.
We reached the end of the bridge within a few steps. It turns out that the bridge is not very long, it just feels very long because of the Lord of the Sea's ability to absorb light. After crossing the bridge, on the other side of the half room, Honglian stood at the end of the bridge and said to the master: "The Lord of the Sea is really so powerful, even master you..."
Otis said: "This This guy is a super ancient beast, not comparable to ordinary monsters. It has just risen from the bottom of the pool, and its power has not yet been unleashed. It is already so powerful. If we really fight, there will be consequences. I don’t know what will happen. Now it is temporarily sealed by my light dragon. Before the power of the Doomsday Dragon Mark disappears, quickly find the Hero King’s tomb and leave here.”
This half of the room is the same as the previous half. There is nothing, and there is a small low platform on the left and right sides, which should be used to place bluestone statues, but for some reason they are not placed.
Otis felt that this mausoleum was not only not grand enough to set off the heroic spirit of King of Heroes I, but also looked like an unfinished semi-finished product. This mausoleum was too simple, too... too desolate.
There is a stone door on the wall in the middle of the room. The stone door is larger than the passage in. It is a closed broken stone that opens and closes up and down. Honglian searched for a while but couldn't find the mechanism to open the door, so she kicked the stone door into pieces.
Behind the stone door is a room, which is rectangular in shape. The stone door is opened in the center of a wider stone wall. The four walls of the room are made of large square stone slabs. There are some things carved on the walls, but before Otis and Guren could look at them, they were attracted by other things. They saw A sarcophagus, a dark golden sarcophagus!
Guren was a little surprised. She didn’t expect to find the Hero King’s sarcophagus so easily. Was it so easy that she even suspected that it was the Hero King’s sarcophagus?
Otis turned around and saw the inscriptions on the wall behind the sarcophagus: "Yes, this is the tomb of the hero king Sag. What is recorded on the wall is his life's achievements."
Honglian sighed: "The Hero King was buried so hastily, which is not consistent with his reputation at all."
Otis said: "I was also wondering whether this was the real Hero King Sag. Tomb, but now it seems to be true." He walked to the long wall directly opposite the stone gate. There were more than a dozen colorful murals painted on the wall, all of which showed scenes of the heroic king Sag's battle. , and the wall on the entrance wall is painted with scenes of hero kings being granted titles in various countries. Honglian looked over it hastily. She had no intention of looking at these things. Then she looked at the wall opposite the sarcophagus, which was engraved with a map of the mausoleum. It was indeed very simple. There was only a single passage in the entire mausoleum. She glanced at it for a few times and suddenly said "Huh".
Otis walked over and said: "What?"
Honglian pointed at the wall and said: "Master, look, the one we came over is very long. It turns out that there are many dark rooms up, down, left and right. Are these dark rooms where the King of Heroes stores his treasures and secrets? "
Before Otis could speak, the whole tomb suddenly shook.
Honglian held her hand on the wall and said, "That guy came out from the bottom of the pool again?"
"No." Otis motioned Honglian to be silent. It was not far from the pool, and he didn't hear the sound of water, which meant that the Lord of the Sea at the bottom of the pool hadn't gotten up yet. He stood there and felt quietly for a while, then suddenly said: "No, this tomb is going to fall."
The Hundred-Eyed Tree Demon is dead, and its roots have lost their vitality and grip. , I don’t know how the tomb of several thousand tons can be grasped only by the dead roots of the tree demon.
Otis said: "Open the coffin and get the things."
There are no treasures in this tomb. Something must be in the sarcophagus. In large mausoleums, many tomb owners like to keep their favorite treasures with them. What does the King of Heroes like most? He loves complete sets of armor and weapons best, as evidenced by the more than a hundred sets of armor in the front hall.
Everyone knows that among the weapons and armor used by Hero King Sag, there are some of the most famous weapons and armor in the world! This is why Otis came here.
The sarcophagus was placed on the first stone step that was not very high. Honglian and Otis came to the dark gold sarcophagus. They did not encounter any traps along the way, and they did not do much at this time. I'm worried that there will be some mechanism in the dark gold sarcophagus. Honglian held on to the lid of the sarcophagus and spent a lot of effort to open the lid. The lid was only a few meters long, but it weighed so much. She didn't know what kind of stone it was made of.
In fact, there are some reliefs on the coffin lid, but these are only decorative patterns and have little value. Even if it has any historical value or cultural value, it has nothing to do with Otis.
When the coffin lid was opened, Otis and Honglian were stunned. The coffin was empty! But at this moment, a stone door opened on the murals on the left and right sides of the coffin. Only then did they see the legendary mechanism in the tomb, but this mechanism opened two secret compartments.
These two secret compartments are not deep, they are like closets taken out of the wall, and in these two 'closets', there are two things that Otis wants - the 'Blade of Damocles'① and 'The Golden Armor of the Sun God'!
……
(Note ①, The Sword of Damocles: The English equivalent of the Sword of Damocles is TheSword of Damocles (Greek: Δαμ?κλειο?σπ?θη), with It comes from the ancient Greek legend: King Dionysius invited his minister Damocles to a banquet and ordered him to sit on a shining horse suspended by a horsehair. Under the sharp sword, this foreign idiom means that people are in a state of crisis, "unfailing in the face of danger", or have a sense of crisis at any time, sounding the alarm in their hearts, etc.
《 "The Sword of Damocles" is a very famous story. I think this story at least illustrates several truths:
1. How much power a person has, then how much responsibility he has to bear.
2. No matter how much honor and status a person obtains, he must pay the same price.
3. We don’t need to envy how much others have, but we should think about how much others have paid for it.
4. When we want to get as much as we want, we must be prepared to pay as much as we want.
5. The story itself means serious consequences that may occur at any time.
6. When you think about how much you want to gain, it means how much you have lost.
...
I changed the sword into a blade here, which is a small change. )
