Chapter 292: The Sun God Helios and the Monthly Pass)

Chu Nan was always in a state of high alert. The sound was heard and was shocked. He turned his head suddenly and saw a torn human in the depths of the canyon. He was wearing a tattered human, who was wearing cat hands and feet, trying to look outside. When Chu Nan noticed him, he was stunned and showed a shock, and obviously saw Chu Nan.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his fingers, placed them in front of his mouth, and made an action to let Chu Nan stop talking.

Chu Nan looked at him with a strange look on his face.

Because he could not sense the torn man, he had the breath of the inscription of life.

This is not the son of the earth.

Chu Nan quickly realized that this torn human man was probably the natives of this nameless island.

Without feeling the crisis or threat, Chu Nan nodded slowly, without saying a word, and slowly walked into the depths of the canyon.

The man in ragged clothes waved to Chu Nan, as if he was a little excited when he saw Chu Nan.

Although he did not sense any danger in the man, Chu Nan was still cautious and quietly took out the wolf smoke bottle just in case.

Watching Chu Nan approaching, the man spoke carefully.

Chu Nan couldn't understand the language he spoken.

"What language is this?" Chu Nan responded in a low voice, and the man quickly switched to English.

This time, Chu Nan understood. Although the man's English was not very fluent, it did not affect the communication between the two parties.

"Why can you enter Rhodes Island? How did you come in?"

Hearing the man's questioning, Chu Nan was slightly stunned and communicated in English: "Isn't this an unknown island? Is this called Rhodes Island?"

Rhodes Island Chu Nan is not unfamiliar with it. He couldn't help but say, "Then, is that sea, the Aegean Sea?"

The man nodded and sighed slightly: "Yes, the hometown of the Olympus gods."

Chunan once learned about the ruins of Rhodes Island in Greece. It was influenced by the Cretans and became a powerful independent kingdom with the disintegration of Minoan culture. Later, under the rule of Byzantines, it was once used by various crusaders as a rest and supply port. It was ruled by Turkey in 1523, fell into the hands of Italy in 1912, and belonged to Greece in 1947.

Thinking about it now, the man said Greek at the beginning just now, so Chu Nan couldn't understand it.

Because most of the Jubi on Rhodes speaks Greek, and of course some speak English.

The most famous one on Rhodes Island in the Aegean Sea is undoubtedly the Colossus of the Sun God among the eight wonders of the world.

Legend has it that it was completed in 282 BC. It is a bronze statue of Helios, a Greek sun god, and it is about 33 years tall. However, after 56 years after the casting of the colossus was completed, it was destroyed in an earthquake BC.

Thinking of this, Chu Nan was shocked because according to legend, the bronze statue of the sun god Helios was very similar to those bronze statues that were chasing the son of the earth. The height of the bronze statue was also more than thirty meters.

However, the legendary colossus has been destroyed, and even if it is not destroyed, how could there be several?

"Is that bronze statue the legendary bronze statue of Helios the legendary sun god? Why is it still there? And, there are several?" Chu Nan couldn't help asking.

The torn man shook his head and said, "Come with me first, not just a few, but a total of twelve."

Chu Nan took a deep breath.

Following the ragged clothes to the end of the canyon, I saw some caves, and many people gathered in the caves.

These people all looked very embarrassed, with yellow faces and muscles, as if they were seriously lacking in nutrition. When they saw Chu Nan, their eyes seemed to be blazing.

Chu Nan understood that it was the light of hunger.

"Are you all the indigenous people of this Rhodes Island?" Chu Nan asked.

"Yes, some survivors escaped here. Although the pseudo-gods patrolled around, they have not discovered us yet." The man smiled bitterly: "The surroundings of Rhodes Island are like being blocked by an invisible shield. We cannot leave here, we can only be frightened day and night. Outsiders, we want to know, how you came in? Then, you must know how to get out."

Many people gathered and looked at them with hopeful eyes.

Chu Nan looked at them and found that the Rhodes Island was a bit strange. There seemed to be no Gaia Monument, nor the life Monument or the birth of the Son of Earth. Instead, it was isolated by an invisible force. Therefore, although these people had terrifying bronze statues rampant, they could only hide here and hide.

But this is not a long-term solution, and the food problem alone has seriously affected them.

However, Chu Nan understood that he was destined to disappoint them, because their sons of Earth were teleported in by Gaia's consciousness. If they left, they would be teleported away directly. The people in front of him were like they were abandoned by Gaia's consciousness.

"We were sent in by a force, to be precise, the consciousness of the earth itself, Gaia consciousness." Chu Nan paused and continued: "If you want to leave, you are afraid that you need to eliminate those bronze statues. Oh, is the false god you just mentioned the bronze statue?"

"Yes, they are imitations of the real sun god Helios. This island has been ruled by many forces. Every ruler has felt the divinity here. He wants to portray the power of this god into the bronze colossus. Whether it is Mosoras, Alexander the Great, the Arabs, the Dorians, or Byzantines, the Sarasen, or Turkey, Italy or Greece, they have been built. In total, twelve bronze colossus of the sun god Helios, were built."

"Of course, the most famous of Alexander the Great, the island of Rhodes fell into battle. The Macedonian invader Dmitry surrounded the place. Later, after a bitter war, the Rhodes Islanders defeated the invaders. In order to celebrate this victory, they used the abandoned bronze weapons of the enemy to build a statue of the Sun God. Only this bronze statue that spans Rhodes Port to the Mediterranean port, has divinity. Only this is the statue of the sun god Helios, and the others can only be some pseudo-gods."

Chu Nan smiled bitterly as he heard these legends. The legendary statue of the Sun God was wearing a crown of sunlight, holding a divine whip in his left hand and a high torch in his right hand. He stood on the stone mount at Shuras Harbor with his feet. The ship could enter and exit from his crotch. What he thought about was the only bronze statue with divinity, but was destroyed by the earthquake. Those pseudo-god statues were preserved and came alive in this era of global mutation and evolution.

Is this also a kind of divine nature?

"Whether it is the true god statue or the false god statue, the important thing now is to find a way to defeat them and escape from here." Chu Nan looked at the people in front of him. These people were all natives of Rhodes Island. They knew these bronze giants better than themselves. However, judging from their current appearance, they were afraid that they would not have the ability to deal with bronze giants at all. As for divinity, Chu Nan certainly did not believe it.

He has always been an atheist, and he has been a long time now.

"It is impossible for us to defeat those statues, unless..." As soon as the man said this, he suddenly closed his mouth, and fear appeared on the faces of other people around him, and suddenly became quiet.

Chu Nan didn't say anything because everyone sensed the vibration of the earth.

It was the vibration caused by the bronze giant god walking on the ground.

"boom--"

Another vibration came, and the sound was very close to everyone.

Everyone didn't even dare to breathe, and felt the fear of suffocation.

"boom--"

"Boom--"

There were loud vibrations after loud noise, but the sound slowly faded away.

A bronze statue once approached here infinitely, but eventually left again.

Listening to the sound of leaving gradually disappearing, everyone sighed.

Chu Nan asked, "How many survivors are there like you on this island?"

"There should be a lot more, but everyone found a hidden place to hide."

Chu Nan nodded, guessing that more than 200,000 sons of Earth were teleported here. After the beginning of chaos and killing, many sons of Earth should have been hidden like him.

The sensing ability of these bronze colossus should not be very good, at least I didn't find anyone hiding here just now.

But, do you have to hide here for half a month? Until the end of this mission?

"Although I don't know what kind of power you are teleported in, I think you are teleported into this isolated island of Rhodes, to save the island." The ragged man said: "As you said, the Gaia consciousness that teleports you in, Gaia, in Greek mythology, is the mother of the gods, the sun god Helios is the child of Xupelyon among the twelve Titans, and Xupelyon is the son of Gaia and Uranus. Because of this relationship, you are teleported in by Gaia's consciousness."

Chu Nan smiled bitterly, thinking that the so-called Gaia consciousness and Gaia in Greek mythology represent two completely different meanings.

The Gaia consciousness refers to a common consciousness formed by the global biosphere on the earth, and even directly the earth itself. The reason why the Gaia consciousness is just named after the name of Gaia, the mother of the gods in Greek mythology.

Because in legend, Gaia happened to be the goddess of earth, which was used to refer to the earth.

Therefore, what Gaia refers to is not the meaning of Gaia represented in Greek mythology.

Chu Nan felt a little confused, and just looked at the people in front of him and said, "There are more than 200,000 people who were teleported in, but no one is the opponent of these bronze statues. Maybe, what do you know to help us? After all, as long as you knock down these bronze statues, you can also be saved."

But everyone shook their heads, and the man said, "No, it's useless to just knock down these bronze giant statues, because... this island is sinking."

Chu Nan was stunned and instinctively looked outside, only to realize that his vision was blocked by the canyon.
