Meng Chao and Bing Storm gasped at the same time.

The Holy Mountain Temple is said to be the oldest temple in Turanze.

It was also the first stronghold established in another world by the Turan people who traveled across the starry sky and descended from the sky.

It was built based on the remains of the blazing fireball after it cooled down.

It contains a large number of technologies, equipment and power from the top of the stars.

Even, the souls of Turan's ancestors tens of thousands of years ago are still sleeping.

It is conceivable that whoever can discover and inherit the power of the Holy Mountain Temple will become the master of Turanze and the supreme war chief.

Meng Chao also knew that all this was not a myth.

It's a fact that's about to happen.

The "Jackal" Canus in his previous life was regarded as the master of the land of Turan and the supreme commander of all Turan warriors precisely because he excavated the temple on the Holy Mountain and inherited the power from the stars in the temple.

He gained loyalty and power that had never been achieved by any war chief in the past.

However, at this point in time, Meng Chao has two problems that he cannot figure out:

"How could Canus the Jackal get permission to explore deep into the Holy Mountain?

"Also, how could the 'Destruction Horn' believe that he had really found the Holy Mountain Temple, so much so that he couldn't wait to go deep into the Holy Mountain?"

After all, the value and significance of the Holy Mountain Temple are too great.

Canus the "Jackal" worked hard to explore ordinary temples. It can also be said that he was loyal to the "Horn of Destruction" and wanted to discover the lost technology in the temple and dedicate it to his master.

But no one would believe that if he could really find the "Holy Mountain Temple", he would also offer the things obtained in the temple to the "Horn of Destruction".

Unless he informed the "Horn of Destruction" in advance about his plan to enter the Holy Mountain to explore, it would be easy for people to doubt his loyalty even if he was just wandering around the Holy Mountain.

The question is, if he really proposed this plan to the "Horn of Destruction", why would the "Horn of Destruction" believe that he could achieve something? Even, he didn't even bother to deal with the affairs inside and outside the Red Gold City, but instead involved himself in it.

Did you go in?

"That's because of a map."

"Platinum Embrace" thought for a while and corrected, "No, it should be said to be something 'like a map'. At first glance, it is just a black metal leaf, and it is mottled and incomplete, as if it is buried deep in the ground."

It looks like it has been underground for a long time.

"However, as long as you take this metal leaf and enter the holy mountain, its surface will naturally appear with criss-crossing and shining lights, outlining an intricate map.

“As explorers continue to advance in the Holy Mountain, the map will continue to change, guiding the direction in real time, allowing people to avoid the most dangerous areas in the Holy Mountain, all the way to the Holy Mountain Temple and the remains of the fireball.

"It is said that this map comes from the Land of Holy Light.

"Three thousand years ago, the Evil God of Light issued a 'mass extermination order'. The Holy Light Human Race came out in full force and attacked Turanze fiercely. Not only did they conquer hundreds of towns in Turanze along the way, but even the Holy Mountain was destroyed.

They surrounded him.

"Of course the Holy Light Human Race wants to uproot the Holy Mountain Temple and completely destroy the remains of the fireball that contain the mystery of the origin of the advanced orcs.

"It's a pity that even if they dispatched hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops and vowed to fill every ravine in the Holy Mountain, the Holy Mountain, which does not seem to be too majestic, is like a mysterious bottomless pit, and all the troops will be trapped.

Swallowed it all, but it didn't make any waves at all.

"The Holy Light Army surrounded the Holy Mountain for a whole year, but finally returned without success.

"Although they failed to find and destroy the temple of the Holy Mountain, they filled in the lives of hundreds of thousands of elite warriors and gained something. They used the secret method taught by the God of Light to survey and map a large number of topographic maps inside the Holy Mountain.

It is almost possible to reconstruct the entire view of the Holy Mountain in the void.

"The Holy Light Human Race probably feels that with this map, when they go back to recuperate and make a comeback, they will be able to completely reveal the true face of the Holy Mountain.

"It's a pity that the damage caused by the 'Great Extermination Order' to the Land of Holy Light is no less than that of Turanze that was ravaged by them.

"In the next three thousand years, the Land of Holy Light also encountered many turmoils.

"Whether it's the open and secret struggles within the sect; or the rise of the ancient tomb princes in the rolling yellow sand; or in the far north, the demons in the abyss of eternal night are gradually awakening; there are also wizard organizations that can compete with magicians.

The emergence of the Holy Light has left the Land of Holy Light with no time to take care of itself, and it can no longer organize a large-scale offensive like the 'era of mass extermination orders'.

"And this fragment, which contained part of the map of the Holy Mountain, fled to Turanze along with a large number of enemies from the Land of Holy Light. It fell into the hands of 'Jackal' Canus, and was immediately taken to Turanze by him.

, presented to the 'Horn of Destruction'.

"Although this map of the Holy Light Human Race is incomplete.

"But there are also brave warriors in Turanze who dare to go deep into the holy mountain to make a desperate move.

"They used the high orcs' own methods to survey and map many maps.

"Putting together the maps surveyed by both sides, not to say it's foolproof, at least the probability of finding the Holy Mountain Temple and the remains of the big fireball has increased to a point where it's worth giving it a try.

"Of course, just a few maps are not enough to allow the 'Horn of Destruction' to personally go into danger.

“The first exploration team that went deep into the Holy Mountain based on the map was still commanded by ‘Jackal’ Canus.

"It's just that he took the secret medicine prepared by the lion tribe's witch doctor before setting off. He must return within thirty days, otherwise, it will start from the internal organs and ignite the entire Tulan River, which cannot be extinguished.

The strange fire burns until the last hair is reduced to ashes.

"At the same time, the 'Horn of Destruction' also sent several confidants to protect and monitor 'Jackal' Canus along the way, and to support his exploration operations.

"Facts have proven that these measures are unnecessary.

"'Jackal' Canus successfully completed the mission. Although he failed to find the Holy Mountain Temple and the remains of the fireball, he led the exploration team to a place where no one has been able to reach safely and escape unharmed in the past three thousand years.

They also brought out a large number of unbelievable things that no one had ever seen before, containing mysterious power that should have come from the hands of ancestral spirits thousands of years ago.

"It's like...this!"

"Platinum Embrace" said, tearing open his leather armor which was soaked in blood and became hard after drying.

Revealing the heart that was pierced by a spear, the skin was torn and the chest was sunken.

However, what stunned Meng Chao and Bing Storm was not the spearhead that poked out the flesh from half a finger next to his heart.

Instead, next to the spearhead and above the heart, there is a circular metal piece directly embedded in the flesh.

No, Meng Chao looked carefully and saw from the bulges of the surrounding skin that this was not a thin piece of metal.

Instead, it is a metal cylinder that is at least three to five centimeters thick, or even more than ten centimeters thick.

The diameter of the cylinder is also close to ten centimeters, the size of an adult's hand.

Such a lump of metal seemed to be forcibly "embedded" into the body of "Platinum Embrace", occupying a huge space in his chest and most likely oppressing his heart and lungs!

On the metal surface protruding from the chest, there is something similar to... an LCD screen, with slightly shining green light spots floating on it.

Accompanied by an extremely weak sound of "didi, beep, beep, beep, beep", the light spots gradually extinguished while jumping, becoming less and less.

"It seems to be some kind of countdown system." Such an idea suddenly appeared in Meng Chao's mind.

No matter which angle you look at it, the technology of casting this metal and implanting it into carbon-based intelligent organisms far exceeds the limits of what can be achieved by the Turan civilization that has degenerated into the clan age.

Moreover, that simple, elegant and even cold style is incompatible with the simple, rough, bloodthirsty and aggressive style of the high-level orcs.

It does have some of the futuristic science fiction color that Dragon City Civilization is pursuing.

No wonder the advanced orcs, who have degraded to the point where they are about to eat their hair and drink their blood, still firmly believe that their ancestors came from the stars!

"What's this?"

Meng Chao looked at the metal, then at the spear that pierced the chest next to him, and then thought of the "Platinum Embrace"'s fearless performance. His heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask, "Could it be... a replacement?"

Part of your heart, right?"

"I have no idea."

"Platinum Embrace" slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know how this 'artifact' transformed my body. I only know that when I was seriously injured, I aimed this artifact at the part that suffered the fatal injury, and ruthlessly

Press it hard and it will protect me from death for a while.

"No, it's not just as simple as saving my life. It can also help me suppress my injuries, numb the pain, and even secrete something to replace blood. Even if the blood all over my body leaks cleanly, it won't stop for the time being.

Something happened.

"Not only that, it can also stimulate my potential fighting power, allowing me to fight as bravely as I did at my peak at the last moment of my life.

"Also, did you see those shiny little green dots above? It can also monitor the speed of my life. These little green dots represent my remaining vitality.

"It is precisely because after my chest was penetrated by a spear that I pressed this artifact deep into my chest in time, I was able to persist all the way until now, and I was able to kill the 'Corroded Fang' who was evenly matched with me.

"And now, it is precisely because the little green dots displayed on the artifact are getting fewer and fewer. I know that my death is coming, and even the power from the stars cannot change my ending, so I am willing to take advantage of the opportunity while I am still alive.

When I'm awake, I'll tell you these secrets."

Meng Chao nodded.

It turns out that this is the trump card of "Platinum Embrace".

No wonder he was not in a hurry to escape, but dared to turn around and fight the "Corrosive Fang" - this trump card was equivalent to a temporary blood lock!
