my cube kingdom

Chapter 165 Altar?

"All researchers disperse and explore, gather here after harvesting..."

Mo Fangyuan gave an order, and the hungry and thirsty researchers rushed to the target they had already aimed at.

"If we can restore this place, none of our wonders will be as magnificent as it..."

Carefully stepping on the fragmented cracked stone brick steps, a researcher said with emotion.

"What kind of intelligent creature created this place?"

A large portion of the four Optimus Pillars had completely collapsed, and the stone pillars scattered in every corner were not spared either.

"Was it a spectacle here?"

The area occupied by the central square of Cube Kingdom is completely insignificant compared with the remains of this stone brick platform, and there is no comparison.

Mo Fangyuan estimated that the total area of ​​the platform ruins may be as large as the entire city of Cube Kingdom.

"No, I think this is more likely to be a building like an altar..."

A middle-aged researcher who has read ancient books and is familiar with the history of Cube Man said after analysis.

"Have you ever seen so many huge stone pillars standing in the square?"

Then, the middle-aged man pointed to the center of the ruins and said.

"Look in the middle."

Every ten or so squares on the huge platform has a stone step connecting upwards, climbing up one section after another, the higher the center, the higher.

The platform as a whole presents a pyramidal triangle shape.

"Stone pillars, open air, squares, triangular platforms... I've seen this kind of architectural style in books, and it's usually used by the ancient cube people to worship the gods they believe in!"

"There were a lot of altars like this used to worship gods and pray for happiness in ancient times!"

"only……"

The middle-aged researcher looked at the magnificent ruins and hesitated to speak.

"It's just that there is no record of such a big altar in ancient books... If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes now, I wouldn't have believed that the altar would be so big and magnificent!"

The middle-aged researcher gestured.

"So I think there should be other uses here besides offering sacrifices."

Mo Fangyuan was also listening, but his attention was more focused on the collapsed stone pillars reaching the sky.

"This pillar is much thicker than mine, I can't bear it... um? What is it engraved on it, food?"

After Fang Yanling entered the ruins, he had already begun to let himself go and be dominated by natural curiosity, take a look here and there.

"This is……"

It was heard that an elderly researcher whose hobby was to study the meanings of strange symbols rushed to the stone pillar where Fang Yanling was.

"This is……"

Then, the elderly researcher also came and repeated Fang Yanling's words.

There are some strange symbols engraved on the stone pillars, but these symbols are densely packed and too strange, which the researcher has never discovered.

"This may be a text..."

After a short analysis, the elderly researcher replied.

The number of these symbols engraved on the stone pillar is more than he has studied in his entire life. They are not like those symbols that represent this special meaning, but more like some kind of words.

"Cut! I thought it was something good!"

Fang Yanling immediately lost interest.

"Word?"

Mo Fangyuan also became interested when he heard about it. Cube Man was born with language ability and mastered a language called Master Esperanto.

So that people do not need to learn other languages ​​independently, nor can they learn other languages.

Mo Fangyuan is very curious about other languages...

"Cuneiform?"

Mo Fangyuan blurted out after seeing the stone pillars that were said to be recorded in other languages.

The inscriptions on the pillars resembled the cuneiform writing described in the stickers in the history books.

"No, probably not."

Then Mo Fangyuan himself denied his idea.

Compared with cuneiform, these characters carved on stone pillars are more complex, more numerous, and more advanced.

"So it's a script we don't know yet?"

Mo Fangyuan held his chin again and asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The elderly researcher said respectfully.

"But compared to the main world language we are born with, it is still too crude."

"Well...then you should continue your research first!"

Mo Fangyuan had already made up his mind to dig all these stones with unknown characters back to the Cube Kingdom to study when he had time.

Maybe we can really research something.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Taking out the paper and pen, the old researcher stuck to the stone wall and continued to observe these unknown characters, with a silly smile on his lips from time to time.

You could tell he was excited.

"Your Majesty, there are several murals on the stone pillars here..."

Beside the huge stone pillar in the north, Xiao Li waved to Mo Fangyuan.

"Your Majesty, is that bald man engraved on this stone brick?"

Xiao Lizi pointed to the bald monkey on the mural and said.

"Your Majesty, is it called the God of Light?"

Under the influence of Mo Fangyuan, the people of Cube Kingdom have completely become wise and extreme materialists.

The entire country has become a hotbed of materialism, racism and a melting pot of assimilating other ideas. Anyone with other ideas will be subconsciously transformed into a materialist as long as they stay in the cube kingdom for a little longer. ,racist.

god?
Do you talk about gods with materialists?

Be funny, bro!

It's fine if materialists don't greet your godparents.

"This altar is where Cube Man sacrifices to the bald god?"

On the mural, the bald god stretches out his arms as if embracing all things. The mountains, rivers and earth are under his feet, and the sun, moon and stars are in his hands.

Well, they are all square ones.

On the square ground at the bottom of his feet, there are countless small square people kneeling on the ground with their arms raised.

Obviously, this mural is in praise of the bald god.

Then, Mo Fangyuan lifted his head up to look at the second mural.

The second mural is a bald god holding two villains in his hands...

The third mural...

In short, the four murals engraved on this stone pillar mainly praise the bald gods, and they have a certain guiding role for everyone who explores this altar.

At least Mo Fangyuan knew that this ruin was an altar, an altar dedicated to the bald god.

"But it's worthless."

It's not that Stellaris doesn't add sociology points for seeing these murals.

Leaving the dilapidated stone pillar engraved with murals praising the bald god, Mo Fangyuan set his sights on the commanding height in the center of the altar.

According to Mo Fangyuan's instructions, the accompanying people scattered around to explore this huge ruins.

Everyone hopes that they are the first to obtain the results of exploration, so as to be praised by His Majesty the King.

So they all focused on finding the possible value in the ruins, and no one noticed that their respected king was walking deeper into the ruins.
