Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 253: Change in painting style
All the way down the dark and narrow tunnel, gusts of cold wind blew across the cheeks. Yang Yu lined up at the front of the team as the vanguard. Bai Jin followed closely behind, using magic to illuminate the way forward. Ias was at the front of the team. The last person in the line is the rear.
This tunnel has a certain slope, allowing Yang Yu to go deep underground gently. The white hibiscus emits a faint light. Although it cannot illuminate the deep darkness, it is enough for Yang Yu to see clearly what is ahead and make preparations in advance. Be prepared.
The team moved very slowly, taking every step cautiously. It took some time to reach the end of the tunnel.
Leaping down from the cave entrance, Yang Yu stood steadily in the underground passage paved with blue stone slabs.
Following closely behind, Ias and Bai Jin also landed steadily in the spacious passage. With the help of the magic light, they looked at the entire passage curiously.
The entire passage is as wide as five carriages, with the same height and width. It is a square passage. This passage is mainly made of stacked blue and white stones, giving it a natural beauty.
On the walls on both sides of the passage, colorful colors intertwine with each other to form exquisite murals.
Gently touching the slightly glowing ground, Ias felt that this kind of place seemed familiar,
"What exactly is this place? Could it be that it is also a kind of underground maze?"
Looking across the strange murals, Bai Jin denied Ias’s idea,
"It's more like some kind of ancient ruins than a dungeon. If it's an underground labyrinth, there should be a special kind of magic wave, but I know I haven't sensed it now."
Yang Yu opened the system panel, and no new tasks popped up on the task interface.
In the past, when entering the underground maze, the task of conquering the underground maze would pop up on the task interface, but this time there was nothing.
Either this dungeon has been conquered by others, or as Bai Jin said, this is an ancient ruins.
In the game, ruins are places where dangers and opportunities coexist. There may be countless treasures and experience points. Correspondingly, the dangers are also extremely high. All kinds of powerful monsters and powerful mechanisms are commonplace.
However, it is also possible that like the real ruins, it is dilapidated and all the treasures and traps have been taken away, leaving only a series of ancient traces.
Walking to the center of the passage and looking at the murals on the left and right sides, Yang Yu tried to penetrate into the depths of the ruins.
The images drawn on the mural are a little abstract, but it does not affect reading at all. Even if you start reading from the middle, you can still understand what the mural is about, and you can also find the passage from the narrative of the mural. Forward direction.
The murals on the first floor of this ruins show the story of a slash-and-burn civilization that gradually grew into a feudal kingdom with emperors and systems.
At the entrance to the second floor, the story of the mural took a dramatic turn. Countless people gathered and overturned the king's throne.
Following the second level of the stairs, Yang Yu and the others entered the second level.
In this layer, thick black air filled the passage.
This black energy is harmless to humans and animals. It just diffuses in the passage. Even if Yang Yu and the others pass through the black energy, they will not feel any discomfort.
His eyes continued to browse the murals on both sides of the passage. Yang Yu was surprised to find that after people overthrew the king, there was a brief period of peace. Then smoke spread, they collided with each other, burst out the light of wisdom, and developed various technologies. , Yang Yu even saw technology similar to tanks and aircraft on the murals.
At the end of this floor, a great war broke out between civilizations. This is because the murals on this floor did not give the outcome of this war.
Wanting to know the follow-up development, Yang Yu couldn't wait to walk into the third floor.
In the third layer, black liquid like bubbles occupied the passage. These lumps of black liquid are exactly the same as the corruptors that Yang Yu and the others saw before they transformed into black creatures.
The difference is that these black liquids really seem to have a mind of their own, slowly squirming without any core.
Open the panel, and there are three big question marks on each squirming black liquid. I don’t know the name, but these black liquids have their own attributes and health bars.
Yang Yu carefully knocked down one. The slimes immediately turned into black energy and dissipated in the passage. After a while, they did not return to their physical form, as if they were really dead.
Telling Ias and Bai Jin behind him to pay attention to their safety, Yang Yu started to clear the way, waving his sword and killing the black liquid like black slime one after another.
The mural on the third floor does not explain the outcome of that war. What it shows is that all civilizations worked together to become that civilization, and science and technology took off completely. From the beginning of the third floor to the end of the third floor, nearly three Two-thirds of the page was devoted to the greatness of their technology. Yang Yu even saw a spaceship floating outside the planet.
But at the entrance to the fourth floor, the style of the mural suddenly changed.
A huge giant holds all the shining stars in his hands. The spaceship that civilization is so proud of is like an ant in front of that giant.
This civilization met God.
Concerned about the subsequent development, Yang Yu immediately escaped to the fourth floor.
On this level, the content on the mural stopped abruptly.
This does not mean that the mural does not tell the story behind it.
However, the mural seems to have been corroded by something. When you see the content on the mural, you can only glimpse the tip of the iceberg of time from the scattered fragments.
In this layer, not to mention there is no black liquid like slime, even the black gas is missing.
The same situation also occurred on the fifth floor,
The mural on the fifth floor was also corroded by something. It is impossible to know what the mural said, and there is no black energy in it.
In desperation, Yang Yu and the others could only come to the last floor.
The sixth floor of this ruins is a huge circular altar, with ancient characters that Yang Yu and the others do not recognize engraved on it, forming a pattern similar to a magic circle.
In the center of the ancient altar, there is a Holy Grail filled with amethyst. The chalice is made of stone and appears to be designed purely to hold amethyst.
"Here is the center we are looking for."
Yang Yu pointed to the magic circle in the center of the altar and was very sure.
"Isn't it a little too smooth?" Ias felt a little strange, "I think it only took us an hour or two to reach this ruins, and we actually reached the last level without any trouble."
"Smooth sailing is not a bad thing. But...it seems like this is just the calm before the storm."
"What do you mean?"
Yang Yu didn't say anything clearly, but just threw the scroll to Bai Jin, and asked her to open the scroll and place it on the Holy Grail in the middle.
Soon after, a dazzling light swept through the entire underground ruins, breaking away the remaining darkness in the ruins.
