Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1435: Zheka Temple (10)

The mountain road is difficult.

In addition to the gravity exerted on the body, the howling wind is a huge obstacle. Going up, the two daughters of Lucy have to resist gravity and strong wind at the same time. Even if they both open the shield of the anti-expansion suit and set up the origin force barrier, they still find it difficult to move forward.

What's more difficult is that every time you walk through the mountain path three times, the gravity on your body will increase. And the higher you go, the stronger the wind. After the two walked through the nine-circle mountain road, each step consumed a lot of physical energy and energy. Arriving here, it seems like an enemy of the entire planet. Gravity tried to crush them flat, and the howling wind found its chance to blow them into the void on the other side of the pass.

At this time, there was no gravel in the wind, but there were unusually hard hailstones. The small hailstones are the size of a fist, while the larger ones are tens of centimeters long and wide. Some are irregular lumps, while others are as sharp as thorns. Walking on the mountain road, the two daughters had to pay attention to these hailstones. Although they couldn't die if they were hit by a piece of hailstone, it would affect their actions. From time to time, the two would use their fists or golden roses to crush the hailstones that hit them.

On the tenth lap of the mountain road, the two found a place to leeward, and temporarily huddled in a mountain depression less than one meter away to hide from the wind. The wind here is not only strong, but the temperature is also low, I am afraid that the temperature has dropped below zero. The energy consumption of the protective clothing is very fast, and the shield is not as thick as before. The two took the opportunity to eat some high-energy food. Angeloni rubbed her hands and said, "This damn place is worse than any place I've been to before. I won't come here again if I'm killed."

Lucy forced a smile and said, "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to let you come a second time. Don't forget that this planet is about to be destroyed."

"Your Highness, it won't be finished in a day or two, right?" Angeloni felt a little guilty, after all, the environment is so harsh at this moment, almost like a natural disaster caused by the destruction of a planet.

"That's not true. It's said in the information that Eternal Yexing will take at least a year to be destroyed. Even if this process can be shortened, it can't be born within a day or two." Lucy frowned and said: "As for this place? The reasonable gravity phenomenon seems to be arranged on purpose. Coupled with the will I felt before, this holy mountain was probably blocked by him on purpose, right?"

"Could it be that Master Gewa didn't have such an arrangement when he found the temple?" Angeloni said in surprise, "In other words, that master must have disturbed the will of the temple, and that's why there is such an arrangement now. situation."

"It should be like this. Anyway, we can't stop here." Lucy stood up: "How are you, can you walk?"

Angeloni smiled and said, "Of course, I can't lose to Your Highness, otherwise, where will my face as a guard be in the future?"

They were about to set off and took a few steps. But Angeloni held Lucy back, and they clinged to one side of the mountain wall, unable to talk due to the loud wind, Angeloni could only write in Lucy's palm: "There are people behind.

"

Lucy looked behind her, the wind was howling on the long mountain road, the holy mountain seemed to be squeezed into a storm, the visibility was extremely low, and Lucy couldn't see anything at all. But after a while, there was indeed a vague black shadow, and it seemed that someone was indeed chasing him.

"Marquis of Maine?" Lucy wrote in Angeloni's palm with her finger pen.

"It's hard to say, it may be an interstellar mercenary. Your Highness, you go first. I will stay. If it is an interstellar mercenary, it is better to hold him back. If it is Lord Ma Yin, then we will meet at the top of the mountain."

Lucy didn't hesitate, nodded and agreed, and only wrote two words "be careful", and then continued to go up the mountain.

Angeloni stayed behind. She adjusted her breathing until her body was at its best, and she finally saw the figure clearly. No matter how you look at it, the other party's golden blue skin doesn't look like Ma Yin at all, Angeloni spit. Wisps of lavender flames dissipated, and countless strings danced around her like little purple snakes.

The next moment, Angeloni's aura soared, and even the storm on the holy mountain couldn't cover up her aura.

Feeling Lucy glanced back, knowing that the person who came was not Ma Yin after all, she had to grit her teeth and move on. The next journey was long and long, and it was simply a test of will and physical fitness. On the twelfth lap of the mountain road, the energy of the protective clothing was exhausted, and it could no longer support the shield. Lucy could only rely on the source force barrier to block the wind and bounce off the hailstones entrained by the wind.

When she reached the fifteenth circle of the mountain road, her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her head was also wet with sweat, pressing tightly against her forehead. The source force barrier has become thin, as if it will disappear at any time. And the gravitational force exerted on her body was already close to twenty times. Even with Lucy's current level 27 source power, it can't withstand the consumption of all aspects. For a moment she thought about giving up, but when she thought of Allen, she gritted her teeth and walked up again.

After two more laps of the mountain road, she could no longer walk upright, so she could only walk slowly while bending over and supporting the mountain wall. Walking here, Lucy was almost numb, just repeating the same action mechanically. She didn't know how long she had to walk, but suddenly her whole body lightened, and the strong wind and hail also disappeared.

Without external pressure, Lucy relaxed and passed out immediately.

But it didn't take long for her to wake up. After barely sitting up, she didn't rush to go, but let herself eat some high-energy food first. After recovering some of his physical strength, he supported the mountain wall and stood up. She found that she was still on the mountain road and looked behind. The mountain path tens of meters away from her was still blocked by the storm, but the side she was on was calm, as if there was an invisible wall separating the storm.

Lucy took a deep breath and took a step forward. The rest of the mountain path will be finished soon, and there is a platform at the end of the mountain path. Arriving here, the holy mountain is as stated in Gwana's book, the peak is flattened, and the breeze blows on the platform, it is as quiet as another world.

Lucy raised her head, the light above her head was dim, and from time to time icicles as long as one meter were hitting her. But it exploded awe-inspiringly in the sky. This phenomenon made her more sure that there was some kind of invisible barrier on the top of the holy mountain, which isolated the bad celestial phenomena from the outside world.

Looking forward, Lucy's sight was immediately filled by the huge sculpture. There are two sculptures standing on the flat ground a hundred meters away, similar to the imperial city guard Sharif I saw outside Suraka before, but these two sculptures are far bigger than any Sharif statues, and they are two times taller. Ten meters high. They are all holding giant swords, while the other hand is stretched forward, palms spread out, as if refusing outsiders to board the platform.

After these two statues is another larger stone sculpture. It was a stone sculpture of a man sitting on a throne, and the scene of rising flames was depicted with ostentatious curves under the throne. As for the man on the throne, his facial features were extremely majestic. Even if it is a dead thing, it gives people a sense of worship.

What surprised Lucy even more was that the appearance of this man was the same as what she saw in the vision.

After finally taking her eyes away from the man on the throne, Lucy saw that there was an entrance under the throne, and there were other reliefs on both sides of the entrance. The relief carvings are some people kneeling towards the entrance. It seems that this huge sculpture was installed on the Temple of Zheka.

When Lucy walked into the entrance, the originally dark passage suddenly lit up with light, but it was the oval crystals on the walls on both sides of the passage that lit up. At the same time, there are also beautiful lines of curves, which connect each spar and lead to the depths of the temple.

After a hundred steps, Lucy walked into a hall. The hall is circular in shape, surrounded by thick stone pillars, and the stone pillars support the arched dome. There are a hundred meters from the ground to the dome, making the whole space appear extremely deep and wide.

There is a cylindrical stone platform in the center of the hall, and something is slowly rotating on the stone platform. Lucy walked quickly, and when she got close, she saw that it was a stone slab!

That was exactly what she was looking for on this trip. Seeing the stone slab close in front of her eyes, Lucy couldn't help but quicken her pace. Seeing that she was only ten meters away from the stone platform, a pillar of fire shot up from the ground suddenly, blocking her down.
