Diablo: I am a Nephalem

Chapter 134 Shrine of the Claw Viper
When Chen Hao led his team out of the hotel, the streets were already full of praying crowds.

In the past, the residents could accept a demon appearing to kill people, rob and so on, but now that the sun is gone, the problem is serious.

The sun is the fountain of life for all things, and people will even directly lose their desire for survival.

In fact, the sun is not gone.It hangs high in the sky now, and its silhouette can still be seen.

But it no longer shines, no longer illuminates the earth with its light.

What is left to people is only the outline.

"Maybe it's a solar eclipse?" Kane said, stroking his beard.

"It's a solar eclipse, but it's man-made." Chen Hao looked at the gray sky and replied calmly.

"Man-made? Chen Hao, do you know something? I suggest you ask Drognan about this matter. He is also your Vizjerei mage. I think his advice will be useful to you." Chen Hao was adventuring outside for a few days, and Kane also made friends with many celebrities in the city under the name of Horadrim.

"There's no need to look for him, I know what's going on."

After calming down, Chen Hao snapped his fingers, "Go, let's teleport to the oasis now!"

"Chen Hao, it's all up to you!" Kane ordered from behind, "I'm waiting for your good news in the city!"

"When the sun comes out in the sky, you will know that I have succeeded." Chen Hao waved his hand without looking back.

In the teleportation station, without saying a word, Chen Hao gave the guard a large sum of gold coins, and directly teleported all the staff to a distant oasis.

Walking out of the desolate teleportation station, Chen Hao immediately asked, "Mi Shan, I remember there was a city here in the oasis, right?"

"That's right." Mi Shan nodded, "There was indeed a city here before. But a few decades ago, because the water resources of the oasis were exhausted, the residents living here also moved out one after another. In the end, there was only ruins left here."

"Then do you know how to get to that city?"

"Uh, if the landscape here hasn't changed much, I should be able to find it!"

"That's all right, let's go now!"

Chen Hao's words were orders, and Wolfgang and Mi Shan led the way to the lost city.

"Chen Hao, what's going on here?" Along the way, Kai'Sa asked curiously, "Aren't we going to solve the solar eclipse? What does this have to do with the lost city?"

"When I was on the street, I heard two people on the opposite side talking about each other. They said that they found two suspicious people entering the city last night and saw giant snake-like creatures gathering together somewhere in the city. There are some mysterious rituals. He also said that these rituals may be related to some evil magic."

"If that's the case, it all fits together."

"I happen to know that there is a kind of snake people in the desert, and there is a temple for this kind of snake people. They are quite capable, and I think we will find the answer there."

"Wow! Brother Chen Hao, you are so amazing, you know so much!" The little girl beside her has stars in her eyes, and Chen Hao is the person she admires the most in her life.

"Hey, of course I'm amazing! Daisy, don't you think so?"

Female Rogge turned her head and gave Chen Hao a deep look, trying to hold the javelin tightly, but found that she couldn't hold it no matter what.

I "rubbed Chen Hao's back" for a long time last night, and my wrists are still a little sore.

This area is very large. With the light of the torches, Chen Hao and others can still see the prosperity and prosperity here in the past on some dead plants.

As everyone went deeper into the hinterland of the oasis, pieces of ruins appeared in front of everyone.

"This is the city." Mi Shan introduced, pointing to the ruins. "Where are we going next?"

"Snake Canyon." Chen Hao said a place name calmly, "According to the instructions of the Horadrim Scroll, there should be a temple of the Claw Viper there."

"Snake Canyon?" Mi Shan thought about the name, "Sorry, Mr. Chen Hao, I only heard of this place when I was young, but I have never been there. In fact, just by hearing the name, people who have been there It should be very few."

"In this case, let's look for it little by little." Chen Hao shrugged, "But fortunately, Kane taught me a trick before leaving. With this skill, we may get twice the result with half the effort."

In this boundless desert, everyone shuttled among the ruins and searched for a long time.

Although there is no hot sun, the cold erosion is not something ordinary people can bear.

Every time when camping, Chen Hao had to hug Sister Luoge's body tightly so that he could sleep peacefully.

"Diana, are you thirsty?" After searching for an unknown number of days, Chen Hao boredly raised the water bottle and took a deep sip, then stuffed it into the hand of the little girl beside him.

"Googling~~~" Little Loli picked up Chen Hao's water bottle and drank directly.

Chen Hao sat on Wangcai's back with little loli in his arms, and built a long wooden plank behind his fists for Kaisha and Daisy to sit on and rest.

Mishan, Wolfgang, and Hall stepped on the sand with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and not far away could be heard the voice of "Lakanishu" that Xiaohong yelled after having fun.

Suddenly, Mi Shan, who was walking at the front, stopped and pointed to the sandy land not far from Youfang: "There is a dune lizard there."

Looking along Mishan's finger, everyone saw a sudden depression in the sand, forming a sand line about twenty feet long.

At the end of the sand line there is a line of dark red spots, even Chen Hao can see that it is a pool of blood.

Everyone just wanted to avoid it, but Xiaohong rushed over happily.

"Lakanishu (*^▽^*)!"

As soon as it rushed near the sand line, a khaki-colored lizard head suddenly jumped out of the sand. This dune long-tailed lizard has huge teeth and claws like dragons, and it looks like it can easily tear Xiao Hong in half.

But Xiaohong's agile speed allowed her to dodge the lizard's attack in an instant. After rushing to the other side, Xiaohong instantly chopped off the two scimitars in her hand. It can only become fish on everyone's chopping board.

"Oh, Xiaohong, you are so naughty, I told you not to run around!"

After the battle, Chen Hao complained, pointing at Xiaohong's nose.

"But Brother Chen Hao, doesn't Xiaohong only listen to your command?" the little Lolita in her arms revealed ruthlessly.

"Uh cough cough cough, sometimes, sometimes. You know, the devil! Every month there are always two days of bad temper, out of my control." Chen Hao still reluctantly explained.

"Like sister Daisy?" Little Lolita asked again.

"Yes, just like your sister Daisy."

"Whoosh!"

Before Chen Hao could finish speaking, a javelin suddenly flew over and stuck in the sand at Wangcai's feet.

Seeing Daisy's blushing face, Chen Hao closed his mouth.

After the other party turned his head away, Chen Hao leaned into Diana's ear and whispered, "Girl, tell me the truth, when was your sister Daisy those few days?"

Everyone searched for it for a long time, and in the end, even fighting became a luxury.

At the very least, when fighting, they can encounter new living creatures, make their blood boil, and feel the existence of their own lives, instead of just machines that they only know how to find in the desert.

Finally, in the depths of a ruin, Mi Shan found a narrow path.

Not long after passing through the path, everyone was attacked by a group of sharp-clawed vipers, and none of these vipers appeared in the previous ruins.

"It seems that we have found it." Chen Hao nodded, "This is the Canyon of Snakes."

"And then? Where is that temple?" Kai'Sa asked.

"Keep looking!" Chen Hao raised his eyebrows and encouraged, "Specially search for places with buildings, even ruins! If those vipers really know how to cast black magic, the trick Kane taught me should come in handy." effect."

"Okay, I hope I can find that damned temple sooner this time!" Kai'Sa shook her head, leaned back, and leaned on the back of her fist.

After another few days of searching, on a sand dune, Chen Hao found what everyone was looking for.

Two columns protruded from the sand in the distance like jagged teeth.And the top of the "teeth" seems to be covered by some extraordinary force.

Chen Hao jumped off Wangcai's back, and ran towards the cylinder along the slope of the sand pile.

"Master Chen Hao, be careful!"

Seeing the sharp-clawed Vipers rushing out from all directions, Mi Shan was the first to rush forward with a spear in his hand.

Not only vipers, but also dark beetles, thirsters, and the large lizards encountered before, as well as some spear cats that jump on the sand and throw spears.This seems to be their nest, or a trap they have arranged for their prey.

The moment Chen Hao's boots stepped into this territory, these monsters immediately jumped out of the cover and rushed towards Chen Hao.

Everyone in the mowing team used their strongest skills to meet the enemy as if they were facing the enemy.

But Chen Hao stood there as if possessed by a demon, staring straight at the ruins buried in the sand in front of him.

Humans and demons formed a half arc to protect Chen Hao in the middle, keeping those hateful desert monsters out of the circle.

"If you encounter some strange ruins, don't rush over them. If you don't look deeply, you may be confused by its appearance." Chen Hao looked at the stone pillars in the distance, and remembered what Kane had said to him .

"It is recorded in the Horadrim book that there is a magic shield that can protect the storage room. If the caster's ability is strong and the sacrifice materials and energy are rich enough, this magic shield can even hide a palace or It's a mausoleum."

"If everything is normal, the cylinders cannot be found; if you can see the cylinders, it means that its protective effect has weakened."

Weakened?
Why is it getting weaker?
Was all the energy used to seal the sun?

Chen Hao didn't intend to think about this, but reached into the storage space and rummaged through it.

Soon, he pulled out an amber lens and held it in the sun.

Looking up at the sky, Chen Hao snapped his fingers: "Wolfgang, come here."

"What's the matter? Master Chen Hao?" After repelling the sand jumper in front of him, Wolfgang quickly came to Chen Hao's side.

"Borrow a fire!"

"What?" The paladin looked confused.

"Holy Light Bullet!" Chen Hao gestured, "The bigger the better, but don't release it."

"Ok."

After getting the exact instructions, the paladin raised the scepter in his hand, transformed mana into holy light, and gathered it on the gemstone at the top of the scepter.

"Brighter! Brighter!"

It wasn't until the paladin's temples began to overflow with sweat, and the hand holding the scepter began to tremble unceasingly, that Chen Hao looked at the ruins through the amber lens.

"Well, it's almost there."

Chen Hao nodded, and whispered a few words, which was the spell that Kane taught him to activate the see-through lens.

"Brother Chen Hao, what are you doing?" After finishing the group of sand monsters in front of her, the little loli came to Chen Hao and asked curiously.

"Here, take it and see for yourself. But hurry, before the magic of this lens wears off."

Little Loli took the lens and placed it in front of her right eye, closed her left eye, and held her breath.

"Using the holy light, aim the lens at the middle of the two cylinders." Chen Hao gently guided from the side.

"My God! It's unbelievable!" Behind the lens, the little Lolita opened her eyes and mouth wide.

Looking through the lens, the world in the lens is a light orange, as if it had just been burned by fire.

What appeared in front of my eyes was no longer ruins, but a magnificent building.The wilderness is all around it, and only the middle of the two columns looks like an entrance.

More corroded pillars, which should have been the gates of the temple, were inserted in front of the columns in a haphazard manner.

Broken walls are scattered everywhere, and it can be imagined that this place has been corrupted for hundreds or even thousands of years.

Chen Hao took back the lens, watched these scenes again before the magic disappeared, and deeply imprinted them in his mind.

When he retracted the lens, all he could see with the naked eye were the two cylinders.

"Brother Chen Hao, are we really going there?" Little Lolita asked worriedly from the side.

"Are you afraid?"

Chen Hao touched Diana's head, and the little girl shrank her neck like a kitten.

"Diana is not afraid!" After Chen Hao retracted his hand, the little loli stiffened her neck and said loudly, "Wherever brother Chen Hao goes, Diana will follow, even if it is hell, Diana is not afraid! No ! Harm! Crack!!!"

"Haha, I knew my girl was brave!" Chen Hao held Diana under her armpit, picked her up and twirled her around.

After half a month of searching, the team lived a monotonous life every day. Although everyone didn't say anything, they were still very resentful.

But now, when Chen Hao finally found the goal of this trip, all the grievances accumulated in his stomach were wiped away.

Before Wolfgang at the side could react, Chen Hao slid down the slope with Diana in his arms, and slid to the vicinity of the column.

Before the two fell into the shadows, Chen Hao turned his head and looked at the nervous Wolfgang.

"Come on, Wolfgang! Why are you still standing there?" Chen Hao stood up, patted the sand on his buttocks, pointed to the temple in front of him and said, "It's right in front of us now, don't you still want a An invitation letter?"
