Chapter 1637
Chapter 1646 Sacrifice
“Is it possible, then the word above is pronounced as temple.”
Saeki followed what Chiba Makoto pointed out Looking in the direction, through the dark fog produced by the searchlight, two huge characters at the top of the gate can be vaguely seen.
emmm
Don't know.
It looks like a ghost painting, but the huge pillars on both sides and the thick stone slabs under the feet all show that this place is definitely a very important place, so this guy based on the two characters The guess is that it is a temple.
However, my eyesight is quite good. In such a dark environment and such a long distance, I can actually see these two characters at a glance.
Saeki nodded perfunctorily: "Well, this place may indeed be a temple."
As he said this, he was beckoning his subordinates to follow him quickly and use the instruments he carried. , conduct a deep scan of this extremely tall door to determine whether there is a large space behind the door.
With the lesson learned last time, this time he would not rashly blow up the passage and go in. While the technicians were detecting it, he commanded his men to arrange their troops and set up a defense line on the spot to prepare for any eventuality.
Not long after, with the help of TPC's advanced technology, it was determined that there was a large space behind the door, which was at least ten times larger than the cave they were in.
“Ten times!”
This number is a bit astonishing. It is equivalent to hollowing out the interior of a thousand-meter-high mountain, leaving only a thin outer shell. Saeki was quite excited. I am also extremely looking forward to seeing what great discoveries there will be.
After all, no matter how advanced the super-ancient technology is, they would not dig out such a large space in such a deep underground and in such a hard rock for no reason. Although it has not been opened yet, Saeki has confirmed this' The blind box will definitely give him a huge surprise. Although it should not be as good as the ruins of the ultra-ancient city deeper, it will definitely not be smaller.
Nervousness and excitement made Saeki's face flush. He took several deep breaths, suppressed his inner excitement, and then said in a deep voice: "Get ready to dig in and blast!"
Several soldiers immediately ran over carrying boxes. , rushed to the door, found a blank space near the door that would not affect the overall pattern, started drilling holes and installing high-energy bombs inside, while everyone else hid in the established Behind the bunker.
Chiba Makoto was at the back, looking at the swaying beams of light from a distance, without any intention of stepping forward to stop him. He watched TPC open the blind box to see if it was a Pandora's box or a lucky gift box. Or maybe it's all in vain.
After all, a movie is a movie, and reality is reality. If the plot is applied to reality, if the situation is good, it will just add more jokes, but if it is extremely bad, then you may die without knowing how.
The investigation team could go astray and go all the way to the ultra-ancient ruins underground. The passage they found now is still not the 'original' one. They can only open it and see that there is indeed Camille inside. Pull three of them to be sure.
As for the resurgence of the dark giants——
Chiba Makoto really has no intention of stopping them, and even wants to awaken them. As Dagu said, what should be left to future generations is wealth, not question.
Why did the three dark giants who had been sealed for 30 million years suddenly awaken? Is it really just that the seal was broken?
You Lian's sentence "The darkness in human hearts will never disappear" seems to give the answer. Even if the seal is not broken, as long as the darkness continues to strengthen, sooner or later they will break out, unless the human heart does not break. There is darkness again.
But how is this possible?
It is more difficult to prevent darkness from arising in the hearts of human beings than to get those three dark giants to abandon evil and turn to good. Because they are only three, and there is a possibility of success if they work hard, but there are billions of human beings. It is even more difficult to make one billion people do good than to save the earth. After all, not everyone is human, and some people can be said to be extremely evil until death.
This is also one of the reasons why Chiba Makoto took the initiative to say that there were three giants sealed. He wanted to attract TPC to continue exploring Luluye. If he suffered bad consequences, he might learn a lesson. Be honest. some time.
"Prepare to detonate." Saeki's shout echoed in the cave, causing everyone to quickly hide their bodies behind the cover, then plug their ears, open their mouths, and wait for the explosion.
After the countdown reached zero, Saeki pressed the detonation button without hesitation. Amidst the loud 'bang', the specially designed directional detonation erupted forward with terrifying power, crushing everything. It exploded the solid stone into pieces, sprayed out billowing dust, and dyed the originally clear cave into a grayish state.
But no one paid attention to the floating dust. They all looked at the cave looming in the dust with surprise. The stone door more than ten meters thick was blown open to create a hole big enough for three people to pass through. TPC’s latest research and development The power of high-purity energy bombs is evident.
"Be alert!"
Saeki shouted loudly, and he also picked up a self-defense pistol. Together with his soldiers, he aimed at the big hole that was blown out, held his breath and waited quietly.
For a time, the atmosphere in the cave was particularly tense. Everyone looked at the hole that was blown up without daring to breathe. If there was any movement inside, it would be a fierce battle, but if there was no movement, then But that's great.
One second, two seconds.
One minute, two minutes
Although breakthroughs in materials have greatly reduced the weight of firearms, maintaining the same posture for more than ten minutes will still make your wrists sore, your feet numb when you squat, and your body will start to shake. If it continues like this, I'm afraid it will Before the monsters come, the soldiers will lose part of their combat effectiveness.
So Saeki immediately ordered that the first group go out as a vanguard and go inside to take a look. The others spread out to cover the first group. They cannot all go in at once. What if something unexpected happens? Not the entire army was wiped out.
Finally able to move, everyone hurriedly stood up and carried out Saeki's order. Several soldiers formed a fighting formation, carefully approached the door with guns in hand, and walked in through the hole created by the explosion. Passing through the thick door, you enter another extremely vast world.
Soon, a sound of 'safety' came from inside, which made Saeki feel relieved and ordered the whole army to attack. The soldiers filed in with full vigilance, but the next second, the vigilance was over. It turned into shock.
A bunch of tactical flashlights swept out an extremely huge space. You can't see the sides and the top at a glance. What's even more incredible is that in such a huge space, there is not a single support column. Only a dark shadow that almost reaches the top of the cave can be vaguely seen in the center.
This surprised Saeki. Such a huge thing still had a body shape. It was obviously a stone statue. Although the super ancient ruins were full of stone statues, they were temporarily out of reach, but the stone statue in front of him could be transported out through this stone door.
Excited heart, trembling hands!
Saeki quickly ordered his men to set up searchlights, but when the high-power incandescent lamp was lit, everyone was surprised by what came into view.
"What is this?" Saeki stared at the huge stone statue in front of him in stunned silence. This was quite different from what he imagined.
"Uh, why is it another suture monster?" Chiba Cheng was also a little dumbfounded. This is not a dark giant, it is just a suture monster.
At first glance, it looks like a toad, but there is only one eye on the face, which occupies most of the area. The trunk is as long as an elephant, almost hanging down to the abdomen. What is even weirder is that the nose is covered with octopuses. Tentacle-like suckers, while the cheeks There are giant snake-like beards hanging down from the side, the arms are like crab-like pincers, the legs are like goshawks, there are three toes with sharp hooks at the ends, and a pair of bat-like claws grow on the back. Huge wings covered with bird feathers. Although it is a stone statue, you can still clearly see the stacked fish scale-like protrusions on the body, as well as the vein-like protrusions spread between the scales, and a thick and long python-like snake extending from the spine. Huge tail.
Even a short-sighted person cannot connect this thing with a giant.
“.”
The soldiers also looked at each other. They opened the blind box, as if they had discovered something extraordinary.
Although I still don’t know what this thing is, just looking at the height of 100 meters, the patchwork body and the ferocious face, I know that it is definitely not a good thing.
This is a blind box, double the surprise.
"Immediately report to the headquarters." Saeki came to his senses, and his first reaction was to inform the headquarters of his great discovery. Although it was not the giant stone statue he imagined, it was still a stone statue, which could be considered half of it.
When Saeki called for the communication troops, Chiba Makoto was also observing this huge monster stone statue. When he first saw it, he was also shocked. He never expected that Luluye was still there. There is this thing.
Chiba Makoto previously thought that Luluye only had giant stone statues. Now it seems that Luluye’s underground content may be much richer than imagined. No, it may not be just Luluye.
Masaki Keigo discovered giant stone statues and monster stone statues in the underground caves of Kumamoto, and the monster stone statues also had colorful timers.
At that time, Chiba Makoto felt that it was probably an artificial monster created by an ultra-ancient civilization. Could the monster-like stone statue in front of him be a combination of the strongest parts of many monsters from an ultra-ancient civilization? And what about the super-ancient version of 'Kimiramon' created?
If this is the case, the underground of Luluye is likely not only the super-ancient city and the side hall where the three dark giants were sealed, but also many caves containing various stone statues. Then why does the door outside say Temple?
Temple, temple, as the name suggests, palace of God.
Is this thing a god?
How do you look like God?
Chiba Makoto looked at it horizontally and vertically, but he couldn’t see that this thing had any sacred properties. Super ancient civilization and technology were so advanced, how could he still appreciate this kind of shockingly ugly thing like Ah San? Kamikaze.
But if this is not a temple as the name suggests, then what is it for?
Chiba Cheng once again felt that he still knew too little about Luluye, but it was right to think about it. Not to mention that he only had fragmentary memories, even if he had complete memories, he could do it alone. You don’t know your city well.
Is it difficult?
Chiba Makoto walked around, pretending to sweep the flashlight in his hand, but in fact, he had mobilized light particles in his eyes, making his eyes glow with gleaming luster, so that the darkness could no longer block his sight, and he could clearly see everything around him.
Looking around, there is nothing in the field of vision, except for rocks, which are still rocks. It is very different from the imagined temple. On the surrounding rock walls, there are lines outlining what can be regarded as ' Mural's same pattern.
“We are already so high-tech, why is painting still so crude?” Chiba Makoto stood in front of a nearly 100-square-meter mural, somewhat confused as to why these ultra-ancient murals were so primitive. What about shabby?
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be. After all, the technology is so advanced. It is possible to dig such a large cave underground without the need for supporting columns. Why are the murals left behind so crude?
Unless these stone murals were not painted in a prosperous era of technological advancement, but a doomsday disaster caused by starvation, not to mention painting tools and paints, even artists can't find a few, and can only use this simple But in a profound way, the information is left for future generations to review.
Chiba Makoto has always taken the information left by his predecessors seriously. Even if the words cannot be understood, the pictures are as universal as mathematics, and the content he wants to express can be understood at a glance.
Among the murals, the most eye-catching and largest one is the stone statue in the middle of the cave. Surrounded by a group of little people kneeling at the feet of the giant statue, there are tables placed in front of these little people. Various items are placed.
Just one picture made Chiba Cheng understand why this place is called a temple, because such an ugly thing was actually worshiped as a god by super ancient people.
Qianye Cheng felt a little complicated for a while. He never expected that super ancient people really liked this ugly style and worshiped such an ugly stone statue as a god.
It was really an eye-opener.
What Qianye Cheng saw was that Zuzuzi was amazed. There really were all kinds of wonders in the world, and there were actually people worshiping evil gods.
Yes, it is the evil god.
The murals further forward reveal how this stone statue came to be.
Just as Chiba Makoto originally thought, it is indeed a seal!
But it was the evil god who sealed it.
According to the content of the mural, this huge monster suddenly descended on the earth. It possessed super mental power and controlled the people around it, turning it into its puppets and then eating them. Although the mural is simple, you can imagine the situation. How terrible it must be.
People cannot control their bodies and can only passively walk forward, and watch helplessly as they walk step by step into the monster's mouth and be eaten alive. This step by step step by step The fear of death is enough to make people collapse, but they can't do anything but wait for death.
But with such a large volume, how many people should be fed to fill their stomachs?
I guess one city is not enough!
So the purpose of this guy is not to eat people, but to create fear before death and use fear as food.
Chiba Makoto made a guess based on his past experience of dealing with those super-ancient 'relics'.
After all, the degree of fear and despair is different between death in an instant and death slowly.
