Chapter 1073

There are murals in various formats on the circular wall.

The mural seems to be telling a story, starting on the left hand side of the entrance and taking up the entire wall of the rotunda.

The hint is right above the mural?

Back at the entrance, Fang Tian looked carefully at the murals.

The murals describe a powerful ancient kingdom. According to the strange rules of the kingdom, the eldest son of the king will become a priest and learn sacrifices from the day he is born, and the position of the king will be chosen from other younger sons.

Unfortunately, this eldest son priest seems to have an unusually withdrawn personality, and is also exceptionally powerful, possessing a strong talent in undead spells.

Judging from the pictures and texts depicted on the murals, he rarely communicated with people, and liked to study necromancy, and he was only very close to the giant python he raised.

This python has the ability to communicate and command pythons in the jungle.

After adulthood, the priests even trained people to control these huge pythons summoned by the giant pythons and train them to become mounts for war.

The effect is exceptionally good. It is precisely because of the existence of this giant python cavalry that this ancient country has an absolute advantage in the surrounding countries, annexing the surrounding weak countries one by one, and for a while, the ancient country's national power reached its peak.

However, the priest is not satisfied with this, he wants to expand, and wants to spread the glory of the empire to the whole world.

This decision was opposed by the king, his younger brother.

In one of the murals, the priest had his legs and hands broken for questioning the king, and became a disabled person.

The priest did not give up because of this, he found the answer from undead magic.

Using undead spells to heal his body, successfully killed his younger brother, and declared him the new king of the ancient country.

The brother-in-law, king-killing behavior and the priest's research on the taboo undead magic made the surrounding ancient countries extremely indignant. They joined together and launched an attack on the priest-leading ancient country.

The priest couldn't bear the death of his country and his people in this war. At the last moment, he used undead spells, summoned the dust all over the sky, and wiped out everything around him, the entire ancient country, including all the ancient countries on the entire map of Asilhoda All submerged in it.

None of this is over.

The necromancy spell gave them eternal life, and the obsession of the sacrifice made his soul immortal. Countless lost warriors were resurrected in this land, and they built royal tombs in this land.

After the establishment of the royal tomb, it went dormant here.

Anyone who tries to occupy this area will be attacked by returning dead from the ancient kingdom.

They are the real masters of this land.

After reading all the murals one by one, Fang Tian lowered his head and moved his eyes to these sarcophagi again.

The giant snake in the passage before should be the sacrificial pet, revived by the power of the undead spell.

That priest also seemed to be a genius who was proficient in undead magic, and he was able to comprehend such a powerful undead spell, burying and resurrecting all the nations.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Fang Tian felt even more suspicious. What does all this have to do with the Evernight Goddess?

Those buried here are obviously priests from ancient countries and kings from surrounding countries.

Why did Ida tell herself that the Evernight Goddess appeared in this place?

Fang Tian felt very strange.

He rewinds two volumes, focusing on one of those murals.

This mural also includes the underground layout of the entire royal tomb.

It can be clearly seen that the entire layout roughly forms a six-pointed star symbol.

In these six hexagram areas, the six most powerful and greatest kings in the entire Asiroda area at that time were buried, and the priest was in the center of the hexagram.

That is, besides this central stone chamber, there are six other smaller halls?

Fang Tian felt as if he had vaguely grasped something, but when he thought about it carefully, the inspiration flashed across his mind again, and he couldn't grasp anything.

"The power of the goddess of the night... the ancient kings... the magic circle..."

Fang Tian muttered to himself.

Comparing the position of the hexagram on the mural, Fang Tian can be sure that the place where he is standing should be the main hall, which is the meeting point of the midpoint of the hexagram, and there are six other halls in the corresponding six positions.

According to the location...it should be...

Thinking about it, Fang Tian took a few steps forward and walked to the edge of a wall.

If the judgment is correct, it is behind this wall.

Perhaps the answer to the riddle is hidden in six other halls where ancient kings are buried?
Stretching out his hand to touch the stone wall, Fang Tian took two steps back. He didn't want to go back again, and went to the narrow passage he just passed to find the entrance to the six small halls. It was a waste of time to do so, and after so long, It is estimated that the giant undead snake above has also been revived under the influence of the breath of the undead, and Fang Tian doesn't want to face that giant undead snake again.

Since there is no sense of the existence of the gate Tongdaao, then simply break him open!

Huh!
Fang Tian's body suddenly exploded with a breath of sixth-order gas.

"boom!"

The punch hit the wall.

Fang Tian frowned.

There is a play!

This wall is much weaker than the one that was broken before, and huge cracks have already appeared under the attack of the first stage of the dark earthquake.

"boom!"

The energy suddenly exploded.

At the same time as the wall exploded, Fang Tian quickly backed away.

A large hole as tall as a person appeared in the wall.

That's right, behind the wall is a small hall!
Entering the small hall along the entrance of the forced hole, Fang Tian frowned when he saw the situation inside the small hall.

At this moment, Fang Tian realized something was wrong!
He turned his head abruptly, looking at the hall full of sarcophagi before.

At this time, Fang Tian finally realized where the feeling of something wrong when he entered the hall came from.

That's it!

There is one thing missing in that hall!
The sarcophagus that buried the sacrifices of the ancient country!
Fang Tian clenched his fist suddenly. The sarcophagus of the priest who sealed the entire ancient kingdoms under the loess, the necromancer, is not here.

There are hundreds of sarcophagi laid out in the hall, but Fang Tian can be sure that none of them are for sacrifices.

These sarcophagi are all too ordinary.

In contrast, in the small hall, all the sarcophagi are lined up in the same row as the sarcophagi in the hall, but at the top position, there is a silver coffin squarely placed there.

It is not known what material the coffin was made of, but it was entirely silver, highlighting the lofty status of the person buried within.

Even the kings of the countries in the small hall are decorated with silver coffins, so one can imagine that the priest will not sleep in an ordinary coffin!
