The huge black pyramid-shaped building in the distance stands in front of Soshiyang. It towers into the clouds, as if it is a magnificent building in heaven. It looks very solemn and solemn, without any cumbersome decoration, but the outer wall has deep lines. As well as numerous attached small palaces and towers, they are dotted in every corner, seeming to confirm its authority as the center of the human empire.
Then Soshyan realized that it was not the throne room. The throne room was the top part of it. It was an extremely large building complex.
There seems to be no difference between day and night for this huge complex, as it is always brightly lit.
But Soshyan can imagine that if night falls, this magnificent complex will become more mysterious and sublime.
Although he was standing hundreds of kilometers away, Soshyan could still feel the majesty of this mountain-like building complex and realized that he was small and insignificant.
"The area where the throne room is located was called Mount Everest in ancient times."
Valyrian on the side gave Soshyan a rare science popularization.
"It is the highest peak of the Himalayas. Legend has it that when the Emperor created the Primarchs, he fought with the terrible destructive power on the top of the mountain."
When the other party said this, he simply Shi Yang suddenly remembered what Li once said.
This seems to fit the description of Xerxes' birth.
Soshiyang thought for a moment, and then said slowly:
"Facing such a sacred place, what should I do?"
"No, because we are far away."
“Do I have the opportunity to pay homage to the great emperor?”
“It depends on Marshal Trajan. He decides who can go to pay homage to the emperor. But the latest one seems to have been a betrayal. It happened in the era of religious chaos.”
As the emperor's forbidden palace, there are huge buildings in the area surrounding the throne room. Gardens and unique palaces are scattered on both sides of the roads and cloisters. Various marble statues with different postures are embedded in them. They seem to be telling stories. Commemoration of historical figures.
Forbidden troops can be seen everywhere here, but there are a lot fewer servants, and most of them have their heads lowered and are walking in a hurry.
The area of the Forbidden Palace is said to exceed 2,000 square kilometers. Its main buildings include: the Throne Room, the Gate of All Nations, the Hall of Hundred Pillars, the Central Hall, and 108 large palaces such as the Brilliant Palace, the Sun Palace, and the Bishui Palace.
Among them, Bishui Palace is the most unique. It is built in a small artificial lake, with a total circumference of more than 5 kilometers. It is built on a high platform in the lake, with stone pillars and rockery. The layers are stacked upwards, reaching into the sky. From a distance, it looks like a lush garden hanging in the sky.
The entire palace is divided into three floors, upper, middle and lower. Each layer is covered with pavilions and many exotic flowers and plants from foreign countries are planted. There are eight doors around it. The main entrance is 20 meters high and is surrounded by huge stone pillars. and ancient statues, and there are always dozens of sedge boats parked.
However, there have always been different opinions about the origin of this palace, because it does not conform to the emperor's consistent aesthetics, and it seems that there are no records of its use, not even the servants of the palace.
But over the past ten thousand years, people in the palace have still made some guesses. For example, this palace was probably built by the emperor for someone, at least not for his own use, and that person is very important, but It will never be Malcador, because the imperial prime minister has always been known to be hard-working and busy, and he will not have time to enjoy such a palace.
In addition, some people learned from some old servant log files that were being processed that the mysterious Bishui Palace used to have only female servants and no men. Generally speaking, only one place in a king's palace would use this type of servants. ——In other words, the past owner of the Blue Water Palace was probably a woman, and a woman who was very important to the emperor.
But all rumors stopped there.
The Palace of the Sun is the main audience hall used by the Emperor. It is used to receive military commanders and representatives of all affiliated institutions and organizations of the Empire. It is also the seat of the Emperor's royal court when he unified Terra. The last court meeting before the Great Crusade was It was convened again and the important decision to establish the human empire was announced.
As for why Soshyan knew this -
Because he was lost.
Yes, lost.
In fact, the whole process made him very surprised. At that time, the imperial army led him through a forest. This was not unusual in the palace. In fact, the bushes only reached Soshyan's waist, but this place had always been There was a layer of mist, which Valyrian explained was psychic smoke, expelled from a huge pipe in the earth beneath his feet, but he did not explain the specific source to Soshyan. The gray-white coral-like bushes planted in this woodland were very special. , can absorb psychic smoke during the day, and at night it will exude a rich purple juice. This juice is a substance needed for some mysterious devices in the Forbidden Palace, but there is no record of who planted it.
This place is also called the Forest of Fantasy. Ordinary people may get lost if they walk in, but the Forbidden Army will not, so it has become a defensive facility in the Forbidden Palace.
But it was such a theoretically "safe" place. When Soshyan was walking by, smoke suddenly rose and engulfed the team in an instant. Then Soshyan found that he had lost news of the Forbidden Army. And he didn't dare to use gray marrow in this place, so he could only walk forward cautiously along the road, trying to find a way out.
However, he did not go out, but he saw a stone table and two stone benches under a strange tree. Next to them stood a puppet that seemed to be made of clay. It was very rough. It's almost like a prehistoric artifact. It doesn't even have any facial features, just an E written in gold on its forehead.
When Soshyan approached, it suddenly told Soshyan a lot about the palace in a very monotonous and stereotyped tone that was almost like a robot, but Soshyan was not sure what it was and said What is the purpose of these.
The thing on the table was a clay tablet, which looked very old and had vague words engraved on it. Soshiyang looked at it carefully for a while, and was shocked in his heart. This seemed to be similar to Soshiyang's. The words he saw behind Velez were the same, and even the content should be the same—if his memory was correct.
In addition, there is a small clay doll on the table, but its original appearance can no longer be seen. There are also some objects that look almost tiny to Soshyan, such as rattles and bracelets.
It seems, like something used by babies.
“Can you take me out?”
When Soshiyan asked, the primitive clay figure suddenly turned around , took steps forward, and Soshyan could only keep up.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the clay figurine suddenly raised his left hand, then turned around and walked back into the fog.
Soshiyang walked forward for more than a hundred meters, but there was still no way out. The surroundings were still foggy, and only the pale bushes close at hand surrounded him, making him feel like he was in a wasteland of bones.
Suddenly, a fast figure flashed across his peripheral vision.
“Who!”
Soshiyang immediately turned around and chased after him. At that fleeting moment, he seemed to see a short figure, like——
< br>A little boy?
