Ancient God Library

Chapter 158
After Romon's exploration of the ancient tomb stalled, he accidentally discovered the contents of a stone tablet in the tent, providing new information.

This stone slab was among a pile of stone slabs, and if Romon hadn't glanced at it by chance, he wouldn't have been able to find it.

The above content is also very simple.

It mainly records the fanatical pursuit of the giant dragon by the owner of the tomb, wanting to become a "Dragonborn".This is a guy who can use the human body to use the power of the dragon.Such people are called dragon descendants. Of course, the owner of the tomb did not succeed in the end, but in the end he made many weird things.

And these weird things were put into his tomb by him and buried with him.

Romon suddenly thought of the huge creature under the cliff, which should be the monster created by the owner of the ancient tomb.

The most important piece of information on this slate is that there are many entrances to the ancient tomb, but after entering the ancient tomb, there is only one road that can reach the real bottom, and there are various dangers in other places.

At the bottom of the ancient tomb, there are dragon objects that he has collected all his life, and all the treasures are recorded on the stone slabs in the tomb.

But these stone slabs have already been seen by Romon, and there is no record of this at all.

Franca had also seen this slate, but he only glanced at it roughly, and found that there was no mysterious knowledge recorded on it, so he threw it aside hastily, probably not even reading the content behind it.

Apparently, facing this kind of strange records that he didn't know was true or false, he was more interested in the extraordinary knowledge recorded on other stone tablets.

After all, time is limited and his work tasks are heavy.

After reading the slate, Romon found that the records on it did not appear to be fake.

He was about to go to investigate tonight, but there was a loud voice ahead, and Darryl walked into the tent excitedly, "The stone gate has been opened, the stone gate of the tomb has finally been opened, the mining team let us follow in together !"

We have been here for so long, and everyone is tacitly curious about the ancient tomb.

Ferranca was a little moved. He put down the work in hand, and a gleam flashed in his eyes: "Then it seems that the mining team is not going to continue to hide it, and wants us to be cannon fodder? Hmph, Go and have a look."

Several people walked out of the tent.

In front of the big stone gate of the ancient tomb, a large group of people had already gathered. Presumably, all the departments had come together, and everyone's thinking should be that they all came, so naturally they had to come in and take a look.

Seeing this scene, Romon quietly stepped back a few steps and came behind the crowd.

The guy from the mining team, Yasuo, was explaining the situation to the people around him.

Romon also heard a general idea, the main meaning is that they have opened the stone door, in order to prove to everyone that the previous danger was not caused by them, so they invited everyone over to see what happened.

But after entering, you need to obey the arrangement and not mess around.

People who can become awakened ones are also a little arrogant. Although they didn't say anything when they heard this request, they were also secretly unhappy.

Romon didn't respond.

He followed the large army and slowly walked into the dark corridor.The environment here is completely different from the other side. The mining team did not use the method of entering from the old world, but destroyed the stone gate by violent means. Tombs make other changes.

The guys on the mining team must be aware of this, but they must have their own considerations.

A kerosene lantern was lit.

Romon observed that on the surrounding rock walls, there were also many carvings similar to the paintings of small figures, but the strange thing was that the style of these small figures was completely different from what he saw from the other side.

"This is an ancient tomb left over from the chaotic era. The records on both sides should be the life of the owner of the tomb who fought in various parties during the chaotic era. The owner of the tomb should have been a general during his lifetime." Yasuo next to him explained to everyone.

He is the leader of the mining department of the investigation bureau and presides over the overall situation at the scene.

He walked at the forefront alone, explaining the environment in front of him from time to time, until a group of people came to a large sunken pit, and then stopped.

The pothole was huge and exuded a foul smell.

Everyone took a closer look.

There are countless corpses piled up in the pit. These corpses have been air-dried, but the flesh on their bodies has not completely rotted, and has turned into something similar to a mummy.These crooked, monster-like corpses were piled up layer upon layer, occupying the bottom of the pit without any gaps.

When everyone saw this scene, their expressions were extremely wonderful.

After being shriveled and weathered, the stacked corpses in the pit are smaller than normal. It is roughly estimated that there are at least a thousand corpses inside.

These guys were either killed by the owner of the tomb and buried with them, or some special ritual was performed to sacrifice.

In addition to these corpses, in the middle of the big pit, there is also a beautifully built altar with many weird and delicate patterns on it.

The altar is made of obsidian.

There are very few ores in this nature, and their strength is extremely high. Even diamonds cannot leave any traces on them.Each piece is a high-quality material for casting altars and weapons. Everyone looked at the huge altar with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

It is now certain that a large sacrifice must have been held here.

An awakened person who accompanied him to study the corpse soon discovered another rather strange problem.

"These corpses are not human! Although the bones are very similar to humans, they are completely different from humans in many details. You see, there is a small protruding part of the tailbone of these corpses, which is very hidden, but if you look carefully It can be found.

They're behind the tailbone, and there's a piece of bone that kind of looks like a tail. "

The guy explained in a low voice.

Everyone walked in and took a look, and found that something was wrong. It was indeed somewhat different from the human body. Their bone density and volume were larger than those of ordinary people. Except for the protruding part of the tailbone, other parts were also slightly different.

They are humanoid creatures with tails, bipedal uprights, and larger than humans.

The first thing Romon thought of was the legendary half-dragon.

Half-dragon people are different from dragon people. There may be a thin trace of dragon blood in their bodies. Coupled with the tyranny of dragon blood, it is very common for their bodies to be affected and changed.The half-dragon people are like this, the short-lived species formed after the tyrannical transformation of the blood of the dragon race, completely different from the dragon race and dragon descendants.

It's just that so many half-dragon people were sacrificed.

What does the guy who once held a sacrifice here want to do?
"They seem to be sacrifices?" At this time, someone finally couldn't help asking.

There are experts in the mining team, but in the face of inquiries, these experts are not very clear, so they can only approach this altar and observe the pattern carvings on it.

After watching for a long time, the experts didn't hold back a fart.

However, Romon noticed that the patterns on the altar were familiar, and then suddenly remembered that these patterns had appeared on the stone slabs!
Although not all patterns are present, most slates have a small portion.

"These patterns are the arrangement order of those stone slabs! It is equivalent to a different kind of code. If you arrange the words on hundreds of stone slabs in order according to the patterns on the altar, you can decipher the information hidden in the stone slabs." Romon The thoughts in my mind turned sharply, and I thought about the problem here in an instant.

A trace of excitement rose in his heart.

From this point of view, maybe there is a solution to my mission.

Romon didn't take the initiative to mention this matter, and just waited and watched.

But Yasuo also thought of something, and walked to Ferranca in two steps, "Mr. Ferranca, have you found anything? You have been sorting out the documents excavated from the ancient tomb during this time, and you should find something." Bar?"

At this time, the disadvantages of division of labor and cooperation are revealed.

Franca still hated this guy's haughty look a few days ago, and she didn't look good on him, "Mr. Yasuo, we didn't find anything in the collection and sorting work. Although there are some extraordinary techniques recorded on it, there are still many It can only be handed over to you after taking it back to the bureau to judge the degree of danger. The only thing I can be sure of is that there is no mention of anything related to the altar in those documents."

It is true that there are no records related to the altar in those materials.

On those slates, wooden boards and animal skins, the contents recorded are all kinds of strange, some places are blurred, and there are very few really useful parts.

Franca never thought that the incomplete patterns on those stone slabs, if combined, would be the pattern on the altar.

It's not his fault either.

If it wasn't for Romon's extraordinary memory, he wouldn't be able to tell.

This not only requires extremely high memory, but also has enough ability to associate geometric figures after reading these slates.

If Romon hadn't read the reminder on that slate before, he would not have thought of this.

Yasuo was hit with a soft nail, so he could only swallow his breath. After finding out the abnormality, he gave up this weird altar and led everyone to move on.

After crossing the altar here, a cliff suddenly appeared in front of it, and a narrow stone bridge stood on the cliff, connecting the two separated sides.

Because it was too dark, it was impossible to see what was on the other side of the river.

But everyone was very excited.

But at this moment, a huge, dull footstep sounded slowly under the cliff, and the dull breathing sounded like a drum beating in the dark and silent space.

Everyone held their breath for a moment.

Romon raised his eyes, and that monster actually appeared under the cliff here!This means that the two cliffs are connected, and monsters have been patrolling under the cliffs.

"Let's go, this thing is not weak, retreat first!" Kang Fu stepped on his foot and quickly retreated, and the rest of the people had already discovered that something was wrong and retreated quickly.

However, when Romon heard Yasuo's stupid judgment, he felt that this guy was really not here to make a joke?

This is a person who leads the mining team, can he make a judgment?

In this situation, the most correct way is to keep everyone quiet and wait until the monster leaves completely before everyone can leave.Otherwise, once the monster's attention is attracted, it will only cause greater casualties.

Yet those guys are already on the move.

This movement immediately attracted the attention of the monster at the bottom of the cliff, and through the faint light of the fire, Romon could see that the monster was indeed covered with corpses.

Countless corpses were entangled by vines, and flew up from the bottom of the cliff, like ghosts demanding their lives, rushing towards everyone around them.

These corpses are not only invulnerable to swords and guns, but also immune to most of the spiritual energy, and they are all extremely powerful. Except for the third-level awakened people who can safely deal with these corpses, it is extremely difficult for the second-level awakened people to resist with all their strength. They are forced into danger by these corpses ring life.

Soon the first person to die appeared.

It was a first-order awakened person, who seemed to be a civil servant. His hands were twisted by a dry old corpse, and his neck was twisted into a twisted shape. He was completely breathless.After he was killed, several vines stretched up from the bottom of the cliff, wrapped around his body, and pulled him down.

The thrill of a companion's death.

Everyone couldn't care about other things at all, and quickly backed away.It's just that these corpses are so terrifying, who knows what the main body looks like.

run!
Everyone resorted to various means to quickly get away from this strange cliff, and they didn't even have a chance to step on the stone bridge to the other side, and the group was forced to come back.

And because Romon had already prepared, when the corpses flew up, he had already started to retreat, so he didn't suffer any harm at this moment.

"Trouble, it seems that even if this group of people rush in together, they won't be able to break through the blockade of that monster in a short time. It is obviously the guardian of the ancient tomb."

Originally, Romon wanted to follow the large army and explore the ancient tomb together.By muddling the water and touching the fish, you can explore this ancient tomb in all directions.

Unexpectedly, it was the same when these people came, they were blocked by the mysterious monster at the door and killed.

This situation shouldn't last long.

The real means of the Bureau of Investigation have not yet been used, and the monsters will not stop them for too much time.

After a second thought, Romon quickly walked back to the big tent to look for those patterned stone slabs.

Whether it was slate, wood, or even inferior animal skins, they were all classified by Franca.

He recalled the patterns he had seen on the altar in his mind, and stitched them together piece by piece according to his memory.This is not a simple matter, because with the help of shorthand, Romon was able to complete it.

These distorted cuneiform characters, combined one after the other in a special order, actually form a complete sentence:
"I have been following the traces of giant dragons for more than [-] years, and tried countless methods to try to steal the power of the dragon's bloodline. In the end, I only created countless half-dragons, deformed dragons, and even no creatures that lived more than two years. When I was about to give up, a moth monk who claimed to know a lot about dragons appeared. He taught me a way. Although it was bloody and cruel, it was worth a try. This may be the only chance in my life. I must Seize the hard-won opportunities."
