Chapter 297 Scroll Shakes, Underground Cell
Chapter 297 Scroll Shakes, Underground Cell
Li Ang moved in the direction of the Shen Yin sound, and gradually approached a huge room at the deepest part of the corridor.
The door was closed, without a keyhole, and without any chain hooks. Li Ang knocked with a dagger, but there was a muffled sound from the special structure of reinforced concrete.
"Crack... creak... creak~"
The door opened, revealing a narrow passage for only one person.
Li Ang took a deep breath, held his breath, and slowly drilled in. With the dim light, he saw rows of iron shelves at the end of the passage.
There are broken bodies hanging on the iron frame.
Those broken bodies include men and women, old and young, with different postures, some were bitten to death by sharp teeth, some were hacked to pieces by an axe, some had their intestines pierced, and some kept their complete appearance.
Li Ang knew the owners of these shells. They were the alienated army that participated in the massacre of human countries. Many of them were upgraded beasts summoned from the earth, and even some artificial humans and upgraded plants.
They are trapped in a cold steel cage, quietly waiting for Death.
Li Ang observed them carefully for a few minutes, and found that their muscles were atrophied, their bones were fragile, their body temperature was passing rapidly, their pupils were dilated, and their lips were purple, as if they had been dead for a long time.
"It seems that I guessed wrong." The dense rune contained an inexplicable fluctuation. "Kneeling like a prostration" seems to be praying, and it seems to be worshiping something.
There was a wisp of blue smoke hanging from the old man's head, which seemed to be a skinny skull with his eyes closed tightly, making no sound.
"What the hell is he trying to do? Does he want to summon the evil gods?" Li Ang frowned, his heart beating faster and faster.
At this moment, a dark green flame suddenly lit up in the corner of the secret room, illuminating a blurred picture.
The picture scroll is made up of countless fragments, and there are only a few twelve pieces, each of which is lifelike and vivid.
On the left are three masked figures in black.
On the right are six strong men with a height of more than two meters, wearing armor and helmets, holding spears and short halberds, and riding on horseback. They are wearing silver-gray battle robes and swords hanging from their waists. They are majestic and full of killing spirit. The whole body is like a Divine General.
The four patterns on the left are four majestic cities. Some buildings have a golden scepter stuck on the top; A man in white; and a dark door.
The pattern in the middle depicts an ancient dynasty, with raging fire burning in the Great Hall of the imperial palace, and ferocious dragons and phoenixes entrenched on four giant stone pillars.
Each of the four patterns corresponds to an emperor and a queen. In front of the Great Hall of the Imperial Palace stands a majestic giant warrior sculpture wearing a blood-red heavy armor and holding a giant blade. Its head is inlaid with a dazzling sapphire. Flames burn in the eye sockets.
"Is this the so-called 'four phases'?" Li Ang whispered.
In the center of the picture scroll, an old man in black with a wrinkled face and stooped body is worshiping the warrior sculpture devoutly, chanting words in his mouth with an old and hoarse voice.
Then, he raised his head and looked around with burning eyes, as if he could see through the wall and look directly into the depths of the secret room.
The old man stood up, walked towards the scroll, reached out to stroke the head of the sculpture, and murmured softly: "You are finally here."
As soon as the words fell, the scroll shook violently, and the four patterns slowly disappeared. Only the mighty titan reappeared, and the armor on his body quickly fell off and fell to the ground.
The old man in black laughed loudly, walked to the side of Titan, and reached out to grab Titan's arm.
Click!
The dark underground cell suddenly brightened, and the titan turned into pieces of crystal clear crystals, piled up to form a crystal staircase, leading to deeper secrets.
"This place deserves to be called the 'sacrifice hall'!"
The old man in black roared to the sky, trembling his eardrums.
...
"Is this the so-called 'sacrifice hall'?"
Li Ang hid in the shadows, looking at the magnificent sacrificial hall from afar, his heart beating wildly.
This sacrificial hall is a thousand meters high and occupies the entire underground secret passage. The dome is made of thick alloy plates and emits a deep dark red light.
In addition, the whole building is gorgeously furnished, the walls are inlaid with all kinds of rare treasures, the floor tiles are also expensive and rare materials, and even the carpet under the feet is made of some kind of precious animal fur.
The sacrificial hall was empty, only a round table was enshrined in the center, and the table was covered with clean yellow satin.
Lying on the yellow satin was a dead body, with wrinkled skin, a vicissitudes of life, gray hair, and closed eyes. There was no scar on the whole body, but it had lost its vitality.
Li Ang squatted in the shadows, looked at the corpse for a long time, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly took out his pocket watch to check the time.
Five seconds had passed since he entered the "sacrifice hall".
"Damn, what danger is here!"
Li Ang was anxious and hurried back to the underground cell.
"boom!"
As soon as Li Ang pushed open the iron door, he heard a dull crashing sound from inside, as if something huge had collapsed inside.
Startled, he rushed into the room and saw that strange woman in a cloak sitting on the ground, holding a round egg.
"What's this?"
Li Ang was stunned for a moment, and looked at the egg carefully.
It is the size of an egg and is translucent. It seems that a liquid-like substance is bred inside. Countless complex symbols emerge on the surface, vaguely outlining a beautiful female face.
The female face is lifelike, her eyebrows are full of charm and enchantment, her body is slender and exquisite, with concave and convex, graceful and seductive curves, her chest is straight and firm, her waist is soft and slender, and her jet-black hair flutters like a waterfall.
"How can this be……"
Li Ang rubbed his eyes, convinced that the face was exactly what he remembered.
He was extremely shocked and couldn't believe what he saw.
That corpse was actually...
"This is the 'Sacred Egg', one of only three Sacred Eggs left in the world."
The witch spoke slowly, pointing to her arms, "I searched all over the underground ruins, and only found this one.
This is our hope. After hatching, it will have the Transcendent ability and lead us to conquer the whole world. "
Li Ang stared at the witch and asked, "Hatch? What is hatch?"
"have no idea."
The witch shook her head, handed the egg to Li Ang, and said, "You take it first, we must leave here, or we will be found."
Li Ang took the egg, looked around, and found that there was only one tunnel here, winding and extending toward the deeper depths.
"What's this?" Li Ang pointed to several skeletons on the ground, wondering.
The witch glanced at it and said indifferently: "It's the body of the guardian. The environment here is too dangerous to stay for a long time. Let's leave as soon as possible."
"Oh." Li Ang nodded in agreement, and followed the witch, speeding along the narrow tunnel.
Soon, Li Ang saw the front suddenly opened up, a huge arch bridge spanned the entire space, and the river under the bridge was rushing and surging.
"That is the underground river, running through the entire mountain range."
