After checking his physical condition and the space in his pocket, Hao Ren decided to explore this temple first.
Of course, he is more worried about where Lily is going-but before that he must at least figure out where this is. From various details, he is convinced that he is no longer in space now, so where is this temple?
He first inspected the stone pillars in the temple and the sculptures between the stone pillars, which have been badly damaged. The temples built by mortals cannot be compared with the real temples of God on the founding stars. These once sturdy boulders have been weathered for thousands of years and are now unrecognizable. Mostly only a pedestal remains. Hao Ren stopped in front of a sculpture that was barely preserved. The image of this sculpture is a warrior in armor. He held a long sword, facing the center of the temple, slightly raised his head, and focused his attention on the empty place above the hall: Lenovo To the other half of the shattered temple, there should be the location of the hanging evangelistic platform.
The sermon stands for the voice of the gods, then these sculptures should represent the greatest papal warrior in history, or other similar roles-Hao Ren reasoned with the logic of his half-hanging clergy.
In addition to these sculptures and stone pillars, there is nothing more noticeable in the lower part of the temple. Hao Ren turned around twice and found nothing, and finally he came to the gate of the temple.
After crossing a wreckage of a collapsed wooden door, the scenery outside the temple came into view. Although many speculations and assumptions have been made in my mind before, Hao Ren could n’t help but open up when he really saw the situation outside. Eyes closed: a vast world, shrouded in chaos.
The temple is located on a mountain, which almost completely occupies the peak of the mountain. Looking down from the front of the temple, you can see that the rocky mountain stretches under the feet, and the darker it is, the more it is at the bottom. Already completely in darkness. There is no vitality in the mountains, only the withered and twisted shrub debris and dark boulders are spread all over the hillside.
Hao Ren tried hard to concentrate, and finally let his eyes break through the darkness in the distance. He saw a barren wilderness spreading out at the foot of the mountain. The wilderness was full of twisted plant debris and weird shadows that could not see anything. A kind of hazy mist circling in the wilderness, making it more difficult to see distant objects. Above this barren earth, there is boundless darkness and chaos, and no sun, moon, and stars, nor clouds, but only large groups of unshaped dark patches in a gray-black Under the background of Roll, it looks as if the end is coming.
In any case, this does not seem to be normal "weather" or even the atmospheric landscape that can be seen on the surface of any planet.
"What the **** is this ..." Looking at this weird scenery that is definitely not like natural scenery, Hao Ren couldn't help mumbling, but he was still slightly relieved: Anyway, it looks like the surface here, at least It is much better than continuing to float in the universe.
If Lily is also in this place, then there should be no problem.
And just when Hao Ren was thinking about where to start looking for the whereabouts of Lily, a little light suddenly appeared on the plain of the foot of the mountain to attract his attention.
The bright light emerged from the chaotic desolation in the distance, and gradually drifted towards this bare stone mountain. Although the light was faint, but where the light shined, the darkness and mist on the earth seemed to be dispelled and retreated. , Hao Ren stares attentively, and finally sees a group of figures in the shaking light, and looks ... there are other things around those figures.
A dozen tired soldiers, broken armor, notched swords, and a golden flag that almost shattered into a few rags. The entire squadron of the Taros Royal Guard, which was once brilliant, now only has such a thing. Under the faint light emitted by the Jinhui Battle Banner, the bright asylum was only a few hundred meters away. In this narrow and desperate sanctuary, the numbness of the advancement, the heart of Vero nica is sinking little by little.
The tragic battlefield of the Shadow Jungle is still lingering in the mind like a nightmare. More than two thousand brave veterans died in the **** meat grinder, and chaotic servants poured out from all directions to devour precious life , So that the noble knight wailed and died without dignity, the entire position was covered with foul blood, and the most proud pearl of the kingdom-Princess Vero nica, the first time he led the battle, he could only take dozens of pros The ending of the soldiers' panic breakout, and now even these dozens of personal soldiers have already been killed and wounded by more than half, they will be swallowed up by this forgotten dark wilderness.
However, the biggest worry for Vero nica is not how her battlefield defeat will be attacked by those incompetent noble houses in the kingdom, nor how her opponents in the upper kingdom will divide her land and wealth after she leaves, she even Without worrying about her own destiny, all she thought was one thing: the largest chaotic lair in the shadow jungle finally broke through the blockade, and the chaotic servants could reach the border of the kingdom within half a month. Who can send an early warning?
Even if there is only one messenger to break through the chaos, at least let the border get the bad news. Early preparations may save tens of thousands of lives.
However, she was destined to complete this mission: although she also tried to break out of the kingdom border, the misty blockade of the twisted shadow jungle made her soldiers go the wrong way, and now they turned around and made no sense at all. And, absolutely dead, there is no life, so we can only continue to advance in this barren wilderness, according to a less reliable record in the ancient royal book, to look for that vague hope.
"Abominable ecclesiastical countries, if it were not for their monks to evacuate the battlefield early, we would never have ended like this."
Beside Vero nica, a gray-haired old knight was indignant, and as the words fell, his body shook violently, almost falling off his horseback.
The horses under the old knight hung their heads and wobbled when they walked. It seemed that they had contracted the disease in the wilderness and wilderness. In fact, almost all the remaining horses in the team had reached the edge of the lamp exhaustion: than Since humans who can shelter themselves with faith and spiritual warfare, animals are often more difficult to survive in chaos. Except for those polluted beasts that are already living in unmanageable areas and are already between monsters and animals, most ordinary animals are in After losing the asylum, it usually does not survive for three days.
The light of the Jinhui Battle Flag is now faint, leaving only the candle-like shimmer in the wind, and the shelter it can provide is not enough for humans, let alone these are only trained horses, maybe tomorrow, maybe Just today, half of the team will lose their mounts.
If you ca n’t find the Holy Mountain before then, you can imagine where a group of mortal trekking in the chaotic realm will end.
"Sir Morian and the monks of the Orthodox Church have fought valiantly, and their bravery and sacrifice spirit are obvious to everyone," Vero nica shook his head, and his lilac hair was lost due to blood stains. The luster of "There must be a reason for their sudden evacuation-on the borders of chaos, there is more than one shadow jungle on the battlefield."
The old knight lowered his head and stopped speaking, and no one from the young knights behind the line made a sound.
These are the most loyal soldiers to the kingdom. Many years ago, they have sworn allegiance to this kingdom with their lives. This kind of loyalty is a trait known to the entire Kolo world. Even if they fell to the present situation under the command of the queen girl, these knights' respect and obedience to Vero nica did not detract from it.
In fact, they also know that the command of Vero nica does not have any problems at all. Even if you change the real battlefield, it is estimated that you will not get a better result in the future-three times the enemy, and the monk Faced with this desperate situation, the early retreat is no longer a situation that an excellent commander can reverse.
Vero nica looked around, her eyes crossed the wounded soldiers, and at the light border of the Jinhui battle flag, you could see countless shadows and twisted black smoke, these things emerged from the fog, as if smelling meat The smelly hungry wolves gathered around, she could clearly see their gradually formed entities, but they would not attack yet.
Not yet.
The knights just repulsed an offensive an hour ago, and burned the gold reserve of the few remaining magical reserves. Now the surrounding fog cannot condense enough and powerful chaotic servants, but with the Over time, the power of the Jinhui Battle Banner will decline, and monsters in the dark will surely launch a new round of attack. It is difficult to say how many people are left after this attack.
Vero nica looked up again, looking into the distance of chaos.
There is only a hazy mist in her vision, and the unfathomable darkness behind the mist. Walking in the wilderness is a hundred times more dangerous than in the mountains and forests. Because of the lack of reference around you, the mist and darkness will quickly make people lose their way. Although she has the most advanced traveller's amulet made by the royal alchemist in her hand, this Talisman can only provide a general direction and distance guidance.
On this endless darkness and the lack of markers, only this kind of guidance ca n’t give you much sense of security.
The high princess shook her head, trying not to think whether she had missed the holy mountain. (To be continued.)
