Chapter 113 3.35 The Ark and the "Legendary Treasure"

Loki's eyes widened, dumbfounded.

"It is not the dead who sleep forever. In the wonderful eternity, even death will disappear."

If this six-legged turtle is really the "Kun" in Zhuangzi's words and the "Leviathan" in the Holy Bishop's volumes, then I'm afraid this thing is not just a simple creature.

This is a civilization composed of six-legged turtles and lizard people!

The six-legged turtle is the "Noah's Ark" of this ancient civilization.

Now that I think about it, it has all the makings of a survival ark.

1. Ability to move (This thing is a giant beast. According to the records of the Holy Bishop and Zhuangzi, it has crawled to many continents in the world.)

2. Able to maintain heat (the "turtle shell" composed of strange mountains on the ground provides insulation and protection for Leviathan, protecting the city under the "turtle shell". Relying on the body temperature of the giant beast under the soil, it maintains an 'underground city' civilization's natural ecology).

3. Able to withstand disasters. (Its hard shell is perfectly integrated with the strange trees growing on the shell. Ice ages, dry periods, even meteorite impacts cannot do anything to this thing.)

4. Be self-sufficient. (If this thing is really the "Iceland" of later generations, its area is more than 10,000 square kilometers. Such a large land is enough to form a self-circulating ecology. There is no need to exchange energy with the outside world at all. Within the ecology, Living things can form their own food chains and survive in cycles.)

Several subsequent murals recorded the wanderings of Leviathan and the Lizardmen through many different human civilizations. They have experienced a period when outer gods fell madly on the earth (the era of Nuwa), experienced the first war of the gods (the war of the Titans, Zeus ascended to the throne), and the second war of the gods (the Olympus war). , once wandered to the Asian plate in the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, was killed by a Taoist priest with white hair and beard, and returned to the bottom of the sea with a sword. He also witnessed the birth of the Holy Lord Christ.

During this period, the Lizardmen continued to capture the remnants of civilizations from different eras to prevent them from becoming extinct during the war. Of course, in different historical periods, monsters often crawled to the surface from the underground city and escaped from this underground city.

The mural focuses on the record of a hydra emerging from the underworld from its turtle shell and swimming like the sea. Loki squinted his eyes and observed that this thing looked very much like the "Princess Hahoran" mentioned by the Slavic slave "Oleg".

(These escaped creatures gradually became gods, were worshiped by humans and developed followers. Others may have died in the long river of history.)

The mural ended abruptly here. The narrative ability of pictures is much more straightforward than that of words. It was not just Loki, Emma, ​​Lawrence, and even old Gore who were slightly frightened. Seeing this, it was difficult to calm down the excitement for a while.

They accidentally touched the body of an old god! He also entered the core of their temple!

Although the few people were quite excited, they had only entered the second room after all, and they didn't know what unknown things were waiting for them at the back.

The door leading to the next room is under the feet of a golden-scaled lizardman holding a golden scepter. Everyone quickly approached, but when they approached the door, Loki found that the door was locked!

Standing under the door and looking at the locked door in the distance, Loki felt quite powerless. This door is 30 meters high. If they want to break it open with external force, they will definitely release a lot of sound in this empty stone hall.

This risk cannot be taken.

However, at this time Youmu ran over jumping. He received Loki's doubts through his brain waves, smiled slightly, pulled up his collar and jumped! This terrifying boy with strange powers jumped directly to the door bolt 15 meters above the ground with Loki!

There seems to be a keyhole here!

The height of the keyhole is about 1.23 meters. Loki found that if he bent down, he could fit right through it!

Giving Youmu a thumbs up excitedly, Loki climbed forward, while Youmu quietly jumped down and continued to bring the next person up. In this environment where communication was impossible, his ability to read thoughts in a directed manner was brought to its fullest.

In just ten minutes, all five people climbed through the keyhole to the other side of the door. The last one to crawl out of the keyhole was the ship's doctor, Lawrence. He was afraid that the cross he was carrying would be difficult to pass through the lock and would jam those who passed through later. Fortunately, after tilting the cross slightly, with him in front and Youm in the back, the two of them successfully dragged the rather huge cross into the locked room.

When the two walked out of the keyhole, they found Loki and the three of them standing blankly by the door lock. Following their gazes, the floor of this room was covered with mountains of gold coins, gems, and all kinds of precious objects. artwork.

The gold coins in this room are just decorations used as background. The mountain of gold coins is dotted with swords, crowns and large gems. Not to mention that there are many huge weapons erected behind dozens of golden mountains.

The first thing Loki saw after climbing out of the lock cylinder was a huge golden trident hanging on the outside of the wall. The height of this weapon is nearly 50 meters! Next to it stands a sledgehammer with a height of about 20 meters, and several knight broadswords with a length of about 10 meters.

These weapons were illuminated by the cold light of the dim candlelight, and they have gone through thousands of years without any erosion of time.

Ten minutes later, everyone was brought to the ground by Youmu. Another ten minutes later, they had begun to walk among the mountains of gold, and everyone's cheeks were coated with a layer of gold.

Faced with such a treasure, Old Gore, who was born as a Viking pirate, obviously couldn't control his irritable hands. He rubbed his palms gently, and just when he was about to reach out to grab a beautiful bracelet, Loki hurriedly stopped him.

"So much gold and silver are scattered here, we should be more cautious, in case there is..."

Loki stopped halfway through the sentence.

Following the direction of his eyes. He saw a snow-white giant clam. This snow-white beak salvaged from the seabed was inevitably a bit out of place in the middle of a gold mountain.

The inside of the giant clam was inlaid with several night pearls in a very clever way. The pure white light shone into the giant clam, and there was an item in this snow-white shell with a length of nearly 1 meter.

This is a 10-centimeter square white jade square seal with several Chinese ancient dragons engraved on the top. This thing instantly caught Loki's attention, because every Chiguo person recognized it.

This is a jade seal.

This jade seal is quite flawed. A crack from bottom to top destroyed one of its corners, and the broken part was filled with gold.

Seeing the gold on this corner, Loki's heart began to pound. Without bothering to continue talking to Old Gore, he quickly walked to the jade seal and reached out to pick it up.

As expected, there were 8 words engraved on the front of the jade seal: Received the mandate from heaven, long life and prosperity!
