"Since we firmly believe that the entire abyss beneath our feet is an illusion, it makes no difference whether we step on the stepping stones accurately or not."

Meng Chao turned back and said to Bing Feng, "Even if we have been carefully stepping on the stepping stones throughout the entire journey, it means that we still have fear in our hearts and do not absolutely trust our own judgment.

"I think this is probably not the 'courage' that the ancestors want their descendants to have."

With that said, he took a heavy step towards the second void again.

Cross the void and step onto the cliff that represents the end.

Ice Storm suddenly realized.

Follow Meng Chao, step into the void, cross the abyss, and break through the finish line.

In an instant, she felt a blur in front of her eyes.

It's as dark as rolling clouds and turbulent waves.

The never-ending abyss of darkness.

And the howling wind in the abyss.

All disappeared.

Behind them was nothing more than a room no more than thirty paces long and wide.

The ground is engraved with dense cuneiform characters, forming mysterious and complicated talisman arrays.

All the talisman formations are overflowing with light, dancing like flames of light.

It seemed that they had just stepped through the gaps between the talisman formations step by step.

I don't know how to make many twists and turns, but it feels like I have walked hundreds of steps out of a room that is twenty or thirty steps long.

Ice Storm paid special attention to his steps.

Within the last two steps, there are a total of three talisman formations emitting scarlet light.

Meng Chao "stepped on the void" and happened to step on the open space between the three talisman arrays.

And if they keep stepping on the "stepping stones", they will definitely step into three talisman formations that faintly exude a dangerous atmosphere.

In that case, Ice Storm doesn't know what will happen.

fortunately

Bingstorm breathed a long sigh of relief and looked toward the end of the room. He was surprised and delighted to find that as soon as he passed through a dark open space, there were stone pillars shining slightly in front of him.

Surrounded by more than a dozen stone pillars known as "totem poles" are the altars for worshiping ancestral spirits and divine weapons!

"Finally found!"

Bing Feng was about to step forward, but was grabbed by Meng Chao.

"Don't you think the distance from here to the altar is too far?"

Meng Chao said, "It's so unreasonable to be at such a long distance, so empty, with nothing!"

As early as the exploration of Ruin No. 1, the people on earth paid the price of condensed blood.

It is such a painful truth to know that the seemingly safe place is the most dangerous, and the moment that seems to be victory is also the moment that is most likely to fail or even die.

Meng Chao blinked quickly, and under the concentration of spiritual energy, circles of light appeared around his two pupils.

He used his extraordinary vision and the sharp perception of a sensitive person to carefully scan the space in front of him.

Then, he bit his fingertip and squeezed out a few drops of blood.

Aiming at the center of the space, he ejected more than a dozen drops of blood.

Swish swish swish!

Just when more than a dozen drops of blood formed a vague human shape, it quickly passed through this seemingly harmless space.

Suddenly, the blood drop seemed to have hit an invisible net. Hundreds of dazzling lights suddenly shone in the space, dividing the entire space into pieces. Meng Chao's blood drop also touched the light at the moment.

, all evaporated and completely annihilated.

Icestorm gasped.

If Meng Chao hadn't stopped her in time, if she had gone straight through, even with the resistance of the totem armor, there would have been dozens of transparent holes in her body. Even the flesh and blood all over her body would have evaporated in an instant like Meng Chao's blood droplets.

, completely annihilated!

"Not every institution has to be deployed behind a bronze gate."

Meng Chao murmured, "Not all problems can be solved with the courage to move forward. This is what the ancestors want to tell the descendants, right?"

"Obviously we can directly tell the descendants the truth, but we have to use this method to let the descendants realize on their own that the Turan people...our ancestors are really...weird!" Ice Storm said with a bitter smile.

“How can a truth that is instilled into one’s mind by others be as profound as one’s own understanding?”

Meng Chao paused and wanted to continue, "What's more, the attitude of the Turan ancestral spirits towards their descendants is more than 'weird'?

"Using the strong artificial intelligence contained in the totem armor, the descendants are turned into war machines addicted to killing each other, which fundamentally locks the possibility of civilization to continue to advance. From the 'ancestral spirits' who can create a glorious civilization,

Become an 'orc' in today's clan era!

"This is not just 'weird', it contains deep 'malice'!"

Of course, Meng Chao still swallowed the second half of his words.

Because he still doesn't know why the ancient Turan people did this.

Why are things like "Mandala Tree" and "Totem Armor" developed to make their descendants more and more...primitive, ignorant, bloodthirsty, and warlike?

Is it an honest mistake, or does it contain a deeper secret?

Meng Chao would like to crack this secret if given the chance.

In order to prevent the successive destruction of Turan Civilization and Dragon City Civilization.

As for now, let’s solve the third mechanism first!

After pondering for a moment, Meng Chao divided his body ten more times and shot hundreds of drops of blood into the space in front of him.

Sure enough, every time blood spurts out, hundreds of beams containing destructive energy will appear in the seemingly calm space, instantly evaporating the blood.

It seems that these beams are activated instantly by sensing biological information.

I can no longer fool around by holding my breath, locking my heartbeat, and lowering my body temperature.

It is also impossible to break through with sheer courage.

However, the beam of light flashed ten times in a row, leaving a distinct afterimage on Meng Chao's retina.

Meng Chao overlaid all the afterimages together and found that the position and angle of the light beam each time it appeared were fixed.

Moreover, there are always some gaps between the beams that are relatively large, and some gaps that are relatively small, and those gaps that are large enough for a human to pass through are always connected together in a meandering manner.

It's like a...

"It's a maze!"

Meng Chao's eyes lit up, "Hundreds of rays of destruction form a maze. As long as you remember the position and angle of the rays of destruction, you can find a safe passage between the mazes!"

Once you realize this, the next step will be easier.

It is not difficult for Meng Chao to crack this "maze of light of destruction".

On the one hand, it is because his wisdom is, after all, slightly higher than that of the advanced orcs of the clan era.

Even if the mechanism left by the ancestral spirit has the intention of making things difficult for the descendants, it does not intend to kill all the descendants who enter the temple for testing.

In addition to being invisible under normal circumstances and testing your memory, this "Destruction Light Maze" has only three or four branches, so it is not too difficult.

More importantly, this maze was originally prepared for the glorious warriors of the Bloodhoof clan.

The members of the Bloodhoof clan, even the relatively small tauren and wild boar people, are taller than the earthlings and the Holy Light people, not to mention the hippopotamus warriors, rhinoceros warriors and elephant warriors.

In a maze that even the elephant warriors can pass through, the gap between the rays of destruction must not be too small.

Meng Chao and Ice Storm successfully passed the maze and reached the bottom of the altar without much trouble.

The two looked at each other and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"There shouldn't be any more tests, right?"

Ice Storm looked at the altar and totem pole, and said, "I remember Kasava brought me here. At that time, when I took off my mask, I appeared directly here."

"It should be gone, right?"

Meng Chao said uncertainly, "If you don't even finish breaking through the three levels of traps, the ancestral spirits of the Bloodhoof clan will be too much trouble!"

Before they finished speaking, they heard a faint crisp sound coming from behind the altar.

It's hard to describe this sound. I can only say that it sounded like a huge ice cube or crystal breaking into pieces and the fragments falling all over the floor.

Immediately afterwards, they heard heavy and slow footsteps.

It sounded like footsteps wearing steel combat boots, bang, bang, bang!

It was like stepping directly on their chests and slowly squeezing their hearts.

In addition, there were two heavy objects rubbing against the ground, making a sharp and unusual sound that ravaged the eardrums.

"No way?"

Meng Chao's eyes widened, "Really?"

Well, to be precise, there are only three mechanisms in the Blood Skull Temple.

At this moment, what appeared in front of Meng Chao and Ice Storm was a huge monster.

When the sound of steel boots hitting the ground gradually changed from slow to rapid, this monster, like a monster that had just woken up from hibernation, also jumped from the altar to the totem pole, then jumped high from the totem pole, and hit Meng Chao heavily.

and the face of an ice storm.

The dark flames on the altar outlined the extremely ferocious outline of the monster.

The huge body, which is half a body taller than Meng Chao and weighs at least half a ton, is tightly protected by a pair of super-heavy armor that looks like a black iron castle.

However, a large number of trembling granulations and tumors squeezed out from between the gaps in the armor.

The deeply sunken abdomen means that all the internal organs inside are missing.

It's as if the person wearing this super-heavy armor doesn't need anything like the internal organs that can't be directly used for killing.

The waist that is too narrow and the shoulders that are too wide form a somewhat deformed inverted triangle.

The arms extending from the upper two corners of the inverted triangle, under the amplification of the arm armor, expanded into two giant pillars that were dragged all the way to the ground.

At the end of the giant pillar, there are two giant warhammers that are larger than Meng Chao's head, engraved with dense cuneiform characters, and the lines are stained with blood.

Because the arms are so thick and the warhammer is so big, this monster walks like a gorilla and can easily cross more than a dozen people without even using its legs.

distance of steps.

Obviously, even the deformed and ugly high-level orcs rarely look so unique.

The deeply sunken abdomen and overly thick arms completely violate the common sense of life science.

Meng Chao and Bing Storm looked at each other, frowned at the same time, and spit out a name that represented madness and destruction:
Chapter completed!
