Xia De didn't know what the witch was thinking now, he pulled out the big silver sword from the air. As Xia De's power continues to grow stronger, the appearance of [Moonlight Great Sword] is also gradually changing. Compared with the past, the runes flowing on the sword of today's great sword become more obvious.
The light of the great sword itself was enough to illuminate the surroundings, Xia De bent slightly, and the lady behind her put her hands on his shoulders.
Suddenly, it was unknown which animal took the lead, and then the animals that half surrounded the two of them rushed towards them together.
"Sign of Heaton!"
As Xia De pierced the great sword into the soil under his feet, the surface of the golden hemispherical shield unfolded with flashing light.
The moment the animals touched the shield, the golden streamer burst like lightning. Although the strange animals that pounced looked scary, they were only stronger animals. It flew upside down and a large number of people died on the spot.
"It's much simpler than imagined."
Xia De said to the witch behind him, and Miss Benanis was still looking at the animals curiously:
"Although I really want to experiment and purify here, then let's continue to walk inward."
The soil and flower petals were sprinkled by Xia De together, and when he cast the spell this time, the "Earth Amulet" obtained from the [Plague Merchant] was still tied to Xia De's right wrist.
With that precious stone rune, the gushing aura is more active than ever. In addition, this "crazy land" is not serious for some reason, so it is easy to be completely purified. When the aura disappeared, the clay chalice rose from the soil to Xia De, and the ancient rune engraved on the chalice was [conservation].
"Is birth also a power of the earth?"
Xia De asked curiously, the witch of the earth nodded, and then added:
"The sage of Silver Moon also has the power to promote fertility."
Xia De didn't quite understand the power of the Holy Grail this time, so he planned to study it later when he went back.
After the Crazy Land was purified, all the animals that shouldn't exist have died, but it seems that new "residents" will move in soon after.
According to Sister Devlin's map, there should be artificially carved upward stairs inside the cave. Xia De and Miss Benanis searched for a long time but couldn't find it. In the end, the witch directly hugged Xia De and flew upwards. After landing on an obvious artificial platform, she followed the platform and saw it was almost invisible. The original appearance of the stone steps.
The stone steps still exist, but the edges and corners have long been smoothed, and the originally smooth surface of the steps has become potholed, almost blending into the cave.
Follow the stone steps, walk up the rock wall of the cave, and turn into a small cave in the cave after a while. Then continue to go up, and finally see the light at the top of the head.
Avoiding the annoying spiders, the flames cleaned the animal excrement in the cave, and finally came to the exit of this mountain cave at a high place at nearly two o'clock.
Squinting his eyes that are not used to the light and walking towards the light, the view outside the cave is extremely wide. This is a long and narrow platform carved out of a steep cliff. Looking up, it is an almost completely vertical cliff. About one or two hundred meters away is the top of the mountain. The smooth cliff does not allow any means of passage; looking down, it is a **** with an angle of about seventy or eighty degrees, leading directly to the cedar below. woodland. If you fall from here unprepared, you will definitely lose your bones.
The height here is extremely high, except for the cave path, whether it is descending from the top of the mountain or climbing down from the foot of the mountain in the form of rock climbing, it is almost impossible.
"It's really spectacular. I didn't expect there to be such a place near the Randall Valley."
Miss Benanis came up behind Shad and couldn't help sighing.
This narrow and long mountain platform is facing the west, looking into the distance, you can see the slightly gloomy sky in winter, see a large cedar forest, and even see the winding past in the distance, embedded like a ribbon The Elrond in the woods.
On the platform, from the entrance of the cave to the end of the long and narrow platform, there are three magnificent stone arches standing every 20 meters. All the stone arches have been destroyed, only the column of one arch is still intact, and only half of the column and the base of the column still exist.
Traces of oil paint on the pillars can be vaguely seen, but it is impossible to see what was originally painted. The glyphs on the surface of the pillar also disappeared in the wind and sun, making it impossible to recognize what was written here in the past.
"Sister Divelin said that at least around 800 years of the sixth era, there will still be villagers in the nearby mountain villages coming to worship. However, with the expansion of the city of Randall Valley, people in the mountain villages gradually If you go to the city, it's completely ruined here."
As he spoke, he stroked the base of the stone pillars of the arch with his hands, feeling the vicissitudes of time. It's hard to imagine who built this place. These arches are not piled up with stones, but carved out of the existing stones when the platform was excavated.
"In the worship of the moon, 'three' is a very important number."
The witch saw the scenery at this time, and said to Xia De:
"Passing through the three arches also has the meaning of passing the test of the three moons. If I guess correctly, the most important location of this ruins should be on the other side of the three arches, and the night is only when passing through the moon."
The ground of the platform is quite flat, and it doesn't look like a relic from the previous era at all. Shad and Miss Bernice passed through the old archway together, but at the end there was nothing in sight, just a level open space.
The sun caused the shadows of the remaining pillars of the arch to fall obliquely on the ground, silent and powerful.
"I originally thought that at least I could see the sacrificial altar or the statue."
Xia De said, facing the afternoon sun sideways:
"Wait a mininute."
The witch looked down at her feet. After her right boot lightly stepped on the ground, the wind from nowhere swept over the dust on the ground, but there were no patterns on the ground either:
"I thought there would be holy emblems painted on the ground."
They searched carefully on this long and narrow platform again, but they had to admit that there was really nothing here except for the remaining pillars.
Fortunately, Xia De also has experience in this situation:
"It seems that we have to wait until night. Since it is the Temple of the Dark Night, there may be clues at night."
Miss Benanis also thought that it should wait until night, but before that, Shad actually had other ideas:
"Look at this."
As he spoke, he took out the Mithril Cube from his pocket. The Cube has given The Shad three stories so far, namely "The Church of the Forgotten", "St. Perry's Graveyard", and "The Masons' Guild Chamber of Secrets". Although this dark night temple located in the mountains is not in the urban area of Randall Valley, it still belongs to Randall Valley, so Shade wants to try his luck.
Originally, I didn't hold out much hope, but I didn't expect that when the Mithril Cube was held by Xia De in the afternoon sun, fine and detailed characters actually appeared on one of its surfaces.
However, the content displayed by the cube is quite different from Shade's conjecture—
[Randall Valley Gold Mine—
Legend has it that there is an extremely easy-to-mine gold mine buried under the Randall Valley, and even the establishment of this city has something to do with it. However, no one has been able to find the source of that wealth so far. There are old nursery rhymes among the country folk that really point out where the gold mines are: where the moon goes down, under the dark night. But greedy people must be swallowed by desires. Gold mines may not necessarily buy our souls. 】
"ha?"
Xia De rubbed the surface of the silver cube with his fingertips, read out the words on the silver cube with the help of "her", and then looked around in surprise:
"The one I'm in contact with now is obviously the Temple of the Dark Night. How can there be rumors of a gold mine? The gold mine is where the moon sets, under the dark night."
The witch was also very surprised, and almost immediately looked at the feet of the two:
"Although I am not a local, I have heard of the legend of the gold mine in Randall Valley City since a long time ago. Didn't the person who built this city in the legend also rely on the gold mine to make his fortune? Besides, rumors have been circulating in town lately that Stone Oxenfurt has found gold in the mountains."
"But we all know that it's a fake. In fact, it's to cover up the silver mine with unknown ownership in the sea~www.mtlnovel.com~ to prevent it from being preempted by others before mining. I even asked Margaret to entrust Serkses The Higher School of Medicine investigates whether there is really a gold mine in the local area?"
Xia De said, and thought of another thing:
"When I found Oxenfurt's ring at the bottom of the river, I also picked up a piece of gold ore. Now that I think about it, since Oxenfurt and Prince William's gold mine is fake, where did the gold ore come from? "
Miss Bernanis also had surprise on her face:
"Speaking of which, the river where you picked up the gold ore is."
"The river Elrond flows east of the city."
The two looked up to the "ribbon" embedded in the cedar forest not far away, which is the Elrond River. After a moment of silence, the witch blinked:
"It was rumored that there was a gold mine in the city, but it was actually a fictional story by Oxenfurt. As a result, the gold mine actually existed, and the silver mine was probably false. This is really true."
"dark humor."
Shad uttered a quite appropriate vocabulary:
"Especially for Prince William. I even suspect, hell, I mean Oxenfurt, he knows that there are really gold mines in the local area, and he is playing Prince William."
The witch shook her head slightly:
"If Oxenfurt really knew about the gold mine, his cooperation with the prince would definitely be smoother, so I tend to think he doesn't know."
Xia De also thought that he didn't know, but even if the stone mirror demon didn't know the location, he was sure that the gold mine really existed.
Miss Bernanice then suggested:
"Since there is still a long time before dark, let's look for it and hope to get something. If we can really find a gold mine, I will also buy the Royal Opera House in Willendale!"
