Chapter 246 Altar of the Old God
Zhou Xu has long known about the news that there is an 'Altar of the Old God' hidden in this mountain.
But Manshi only took four subordinates with him at that time. He followed the Gray Fox tribe to confirm the location of the altar, and then left all four subordinates to guard the altar.
This means that except for the people from the Gray Fox Tribe and Manshi and the others, others only know about such a thing, but they don’t know where the ‘Old God Altar’ is.
It wasn’t until they captured the Wild Stone Tribe and captured the Gray Fox Tribe that they learned the specific location of the ‘Old God Altar’.
After breakfast, Zhou Xu took the vine armor soldiers as his guards and set off quickly.
The location of this altar is near the Gray Fox Tribe’s camp. It’s still a long way from the Wild Stone Tribe’s camp.
Coupled with the difficulty of walking on the mountain road, by the time they arrived, it was already close to noon.
Outside the cave, the four subordinates left by Manshi had been tied up and thrown outside, waiting to be escorted to the camp later, and their people had completely taken over the control here. Guard job.
“Chief!”
Seeing Zhou Xu coming with the vine armor soldiers, the soldiers saluted one after another.
After Zhou Xu simply nodded, he walked into the cave impatiently.
On the way, he really thought a lot about this ‘Altar of the Old God’.
【Can the ‘Old God Altar’ still be used? 】
【If it works, can I use that altar to go back? 】
[But before I traveled back in time, I had already died in a car accident. If I traveled back in time, would I appear out of thin air, or something like that? 】
[After all, in the world over there, after I died, did my body disappear because of time travel? Or has it been cremated? 】
【If I can really go back in time, can I go back? 】
Along the way, Zhou Xu had all kinds of messy thoughts in his mind.
These thoughts finally stopped until he came to the altar!
It was an altar made entirely of stones, no different from the altar that summoned him before.
But unlike the altar that summoned him, this one exudes an ancient and solemn atmosphere, making those who approach it unconsciously tense up.
Slowly walked up to the altar. Just like his one, the strange symbols on the altar formed a circular array with a diameter of almost five meters.
Zhou Xu tried to let himself see clearly and even remember those symbols.
But in the process, he found that these symbols were clear and blurry.
This feeling is extremely contradictory, but it is his true feeling at this moment.
He could clearly see every symbol on it, but when he wanted to remember the symbols in his mind, he found that the symbols were blurry and impossible to remember.
【Is this the power of the old gods left on this altar, interfering with me? 】
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly came to Zhou Xu’s mind.
【Eye of Insight! 】
He did it as soon as he thought of it, and Zhou Xu directly activated the power of the mantra to see what happened.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, he felt a sudden buzzing sound in his head, and the severe pain made him couldn't help but hold his head on the spot.
At the same time, Zhou Xu's eyes turned blood red, and two lines of blood tears overflowed directly from his eyes and slid down his cheeks.
Clenching his teeth so hard that he almost broke them, Zhou Xu suppressed himself from screaming, and secretly rejoiced in his heart...
[Fortunately, before coming in, he let the others They all stayed outside and did not follow them in. 】
Although there was no mirror at the moment, Zhou Xu could roughly imagine how miserable he was now.
If his subordinates see it, will it affect his majesty as a leader?
Slowly exhaling a long breath, Zhou Xu then took another deep breath to relax himself. The swelling and pain in his brain only lasted for a moment, and he was still a little uncomfortable at the moment, but his eyes were burning and stinging!
When he reached out and touched it, his hand was immediately stained with blood.
His eyes swept around him, and everything he saw was covered in red.
“Damn it.”
Zhou Xu, who was afraid that his eyes would be damaged at this moment, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, took out the animal skin water bag on his waist, and washed his face and blood on hands.
After that, he closed his eyes again and relaxed for a while. He opened his eyes again. Although he could still feel the stinging pain, the redness in his eyes had faded a lot, which made Zhou Xu relieved.
Then his eyes fell on the 'Altar of the Old God' again, with an awe that he had never seen before on his face.
[This is probably some kind of prohibition left by the old gods on the altar. On the one hand, it is to protect the altar, and on the other hand, it is to prevent the power on the altar from being peeped. 】
During this period, Zhou Xu made a small attempt to absorb the power of the mantra on the altar, but there was no response to the power of the mantra contained in the altar.
Obviously, under normal circumstances, the power of the mantra contained in this altar cannot be absorbed.
[Then if I smash this altar and smash it into ruins, will I be able to absorb the power of the mantra from the ruins? 】
At this moment, a bold idea flashed through Zhou Xu’s mind.
But he quickly gave up the idea.
He just wanted to peek at the altar, but he got backlash. If he did it, he really couldn't imagine what would happen.
It’s better not to try this kind of suicidal thing.
【But how to use this altar? It shouldn't be difficult to use, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to summon me casually in the first place...]
At this moment, Zhou Xuzheng was thinking so.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the system prompt sounded again in his mind...
[System prompt: Do you want to inject the power of the mantra into the 'altar'? 】
The system that usually has no sense of existence and does not even bubble at all suddenly bubbled up now, which really shocked him.
Then he quickly refused.
【No, no, no, no! 】
After all, he has never done anything like this before. He has no idea what will happen after injecting the power of the mantra into the altar. He has not made any preparations at the moment, and he really doesn't dare to try it easily.
If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be a big problem?
While he was struggling, his eyes slowly calmed down.
His eyes will definitely not be able to return to normal in a short while, and he cannot stay here like this forever.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Xu finally decided to go back to the camp first.
After walking out of the cave, the vine-armored soldiers guarding the outside noticed their leader's obviously red eyes without any surprise.
"Chief, your eyes..."
"It's okay, I've used a lot of words in the past two days, and the light in this cave is poor, so my eyes are just a little tired."
His 'eye of insight' is no secret at all. When he said this, his subordinates naturally believed it and stopped asking further questions.
"You guys, continue to stay here and don't let anyone get close easily. The rest of you, follow me to the Red Rock Camp."
"Yes!"
Today there will be an additional update for the accumulated monthly tickets of 300, which should be after 9:30
