Dragon Clan: Reboot Life

Chapter 429 Ceremony ([-])

"Let's go."

Mars looked towards the center of Shidao, urged everyone, and opened the way ahead.

Nissos looked at the back of him walking ahead alone, sighed, but could only keep up.

Now he has no choice. Mars has always been the leader from the beginning to the end. This guy is really going to risk his life this time, and he wants to stop Frixis. He can't find a reason to refuse.

The island wasn't that big, and they followed the artificially paved path, gradually approaching the center of the island.

Along the way, towering trees can be seen. The vegetation here is extremely lush and lush, and the dark green tree shadows are like green clouds in midair.

This kind of tree looks a lot like a cypress tree. It is tall and tall, and the lines on the trunk are twisted like dragons and snakes. But the cypress tree should not be so tall. It is difficult to judge its height when looking up from under the tree. It may be close to 100 meters. This height is about the same as that of Sequoia, and it must be the old Sequoia "Hyberon", which is known as the tallest tree in the world.

Sometimes there are stone carvings on the side of the road. The carving skills are very exquisite. Some are like lions with wings, some are horses with two feathers on their backs, and some elves with thin wings and sharp ears. They are all exquisite. And the shape is very elegant, and some people will believe that it is a contemporary artwork.

Chu Zihang remembered that Knowns once boasted to him that he was proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and that he could barely be regarded as a master in carving skills. There is nothing in this world that she is not good at.

Mars seemed to be very interested in these stone carvings, and when he saw that Nissos was about to start directly, he stopped him.

"What do you want to do?" Mars asked sternly.

"Just take a look..." Nissos said a little aggrieved.

"Are you an idiot?" Mars scolded, "Did you always lose your mind in the alchemy class before? Can't you see the hidden alchemical lines on these stone carvings?"

Nissos was stunned for a moment, and soon discovered the alchemy lines hidden in the undulating lines of the stone carvings, and his expression changed involuntarily.

The man who carved the stone sculpture was so sinister that he even hid the alchemy pattern in the carved lines, almost hiding it from his eyes.

Chu Zihang on the side is a little strange, do dragons also learn alchemy?

"It's a very unfamiliar alchemy pattern. I haven't seen it before. It doesn't seem to belong to the inheritance of the Dragon Clan." Xia Mi knelt down and looked at it for a long time before saying, "Norton should be brought here this time. On to Hephatos."

Mentioning Norton, Mars' face also became a little ugly.

Chu Zihang suddenly remembered something, and wanted to ask Xia Mi if it was Mars who competed with Norton for the King of Bronze and Fire.

But when he thought about it, he felt that it was unlikely, because the Presbyterian Church represented by Mars was obviously at odds with Frissis.

Should it be a rumor?

Mars said indifferently: "Although there are differences, they are more or less the same. This should be a warning pattern, and it will be triggered by touching."

"Don't move around." After saying that, he gave Nixos a warning look.

They continued to move forward, and there was a white altar-shaped building in front of them, a bit like Stonehenge in England. There were long, translucent things hanging on the stone beams, as if they were hung by ancient monarchs or noble ladies to hide their faces when they traveled. veil.

After they stepped into it, they realized that it was just a Stonehenge, a Stonehenge many times larger than the Stonehenge in England.

There is nothing in Stonehenge, only those "veils" hanging on the stone beams in a messy manner. The shape of the veils is a bit strange, like a long bag made of yarn, which is about the size of two people hugging when stretched out. Thick, about tens of meters in length.Such a bag is obviously not used as a shelter, but why do you need such a huge bag?

Nissos subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch the thing that looked like a veil, but he shyly withdrew his hand under Mars' expressionless gaze.

Chu Zihang stretched out his hand and stroked the "veil", his expression changed slightly and he said, "It's a little sticky, could it be a snake slough?"

At this time, the sound of "rustling" came from the giant cypresses around Stonehenge, and the huge black shadows hidden in the shade of the trees woke up. They coiled around the cypresses and swam downward, like a precocious dragon.

Those are huge snakes, they are not eye-catching when coiled on the dragon cypress trees, because those dragon cypress trees are too tall, and those snakes are dark green, similar to a protective color.

But when they moved, huge bodies emerged, and the rustle of scales and tree trunks filled the perimeter of Stonehenge.

The smallest of them is more than ten meters long, and the largest individual is more than 40 meters long. The abdomen is as white as snow and the back is covered with dark green brocade-like scales. It is a bit like the anaconda living in the Amazon jungle, but the anaconda cannot grow so big. , humans once captured an [-]-meter-long anaconda, which is already the king of anacondas.

The appearance of these giant snakes did not cause panic. Everyone, including the crew, looked at the giant snakes with indifference and implied disdain.

In their eyes, no matter how big these things are, they are still pets at their mercy, without any ability to resist.

The group of snakes did not surround them, and scattered away after getting down from the dragon cypress tree, all of them seemed a little scared.

Their huge bodies rolled over the grass, like a boulder rolled over, the grass blades fell down, leaving wavy lines, and some meandered along the mountain road, exploring the way for them.

Mars looked at the giant snakes scurrying away, and said with deep meaning in his eyes: "These creatures have strong vitality accumulated in their bodies, and they are excellent food."

Nixos licked his lips, "Have these things been freed from the genetic shackles?"

Normally, it is impossible for snakes to grow so big. Although their cell division never stops and they can grow to infinity in principle, they do not have a matching lifespan and cannot live until then.

"Avalon is an island of immortality in the Celtic mythology that is circulating. Time does not pass here, and nothing will die." Mars said, "You can understand this part as Odin It can also be understood as a note left by Arthur."

"Time doesn't pass here?" Nissos glanced at the watch, the second hand had stopped working long ago, he exclaimed, "What the hell is this place, even the time zero is just slowing down time!"

Mars sighed: "Your watch doesn't move because there is an extremely strong magnetic field here. It remains to be confirmed whether or not the passage of time is stopped here."

"Oh oh oh..."

"But this place is really special." Mars said in a deep voice, he looked around, "This Stonehenge seems to be an alchemy circle, but even I can't see its function."

This kind of island is too mysterious in their eyes. It was here that Odin gained the mighty power to set foot on the Supreme.

This Nibelungen is also the most special one they have ever seen, everything seems ordinary and strange.

Frixis has already broken into this place first. This stone island is only this big, but now it is calm and there are no abnormal noises, which makes people mutter in their hearts.

Chu Zihang took the holy sword from his back, and the scabbard was conveying joy, which made him confirm that this place was indeed Avalon.

Xia Mi walked around the huge Stonehenge, but found nothing. Her accomplishments in alchemy were indeed mediocre, and even Mars couldn't see the name, so it was even harder for her to see.

After thinking hard to no avail, they could only continue on the road.

They walked along the winding mountain road, picking up the steps all the way.

The steps are directly excavated on the rock, the surface is rough but flat, clean and dust-free, very comfortable to walk on.

Soon, they reached the first cave along the way.

After seeing the things in the cave, Mars' eyes became deeper and deeper.

It was a coffin, a coffin made entirely of gold, with vine-like patterns carved on the whole body, as if wrapped in an ancient golden tree.

It is so simple and solemn, but extremely luxurious, but it is bounded by two arm-thin iron hoops at the head and tail of the coffin.

Four thick iron chains were attached to each hoop, and the iron rods at the ends of the iron chains were deeply inserted into the rock.

The noble and luxurious coffin is also a prison.

"It seems... that the Hall of Valor that Odin wanted to build back then was engraved here by Loki." Mars whispered.

Hearing the Hall of Valor, Nissos' face changed. Of course he knew the so-called Hall of Valor. This is Odin. No, he should be called Loki now.

Over the years, believers who believed in Loki had been accepting his will to act in the world, and what Loki relied on and intervened in the world was the Hall of Valor.

It is true that he cannot leave this stone island, but his "heroic spirits" can shuttle freely.

What the Elders have been afraid of all these years is the Loki avatar holding the fake Kungunir.

"Open him." Mars squinted and looked at the coffin for a long time, then said suddenly.

The crew members at the rear stepped forward quickly, and cooperated with each other. Someone pulled out the iron rod inserted into the rock vigorously, and then tried to push open the coffin lid, but they couldn't push it even though they blushed.

Nissos couldn't hold back, it was his little brother after all.

How many third-generation species can't even open a coffin door?

"Get out of the way." He couldn't open it any longer, he let out a low cry, put his hands on a corner of the coffin lid, and forcefully pushed the originally sealed golden coffin lid away...

Seeing the empty scene in the coffin, Nissos was stunned for a while, it was actually empty?
"Go, keep going." Mars sneered, "There is definitely more than one coffin here, I don't believe it's all empty."

They walked up the steps to higher levels, encountering dozens of caves along the way.

The island is surrounded by a circle of curved mountain walls, with only one gap, and the pier is built on the gap.This geological structure seems to be formed naturally, but it is too regular. It is shaped like an ancient Roman Colosseum with a corner collapsed. Neatly.

There is a coffin in each cave, coffins of different textures, some are carved out of a whole piece of granite, some are made of black iron, and some are made of precious metals such as gold and silver. None of them are priceless treasures. All the tools were hooped with iron hoops, and then locked in the cave with iron chains.

Some of these coffins were so big that a baby elephant could fit inside them, while others were small enough to hold only the bones of babies.

Nissos served as a full-time coffin pusher, constantly opening empty coffins.

After walking through the mountainside, they walked into a cave again, only to find that the coffin was actually open!
Inside the coffin was a slough like human skin, and the contents inside were missing.

Mars reached out and touched the remnant, and said with a sneer, "Frisis has indeed come, let's go, if I'm not wrong, Frixis and Loki have already met."

"You mean Loki summoned all the Heroic Spirits in order to fight Frixis?"

"Heroic Spirits?" Mars looked at the ruined body with disgust, "The Hall of Valor Spirits that Odin formed back then can be called Heroic Spirits, they are all brave and good at fighting, and fearless of life and death, but the puppet army built by Loki, What qualifications do you have to be called a heroic spirit?"

Chu Zihang suddenly said: "What is the principle of Loki's puppet army?"

"There are two types, either the imperial blood of the Black King's blood, or the hybrid who has embarked on the road to becoming a god, that is, a hybrid that has transformed into a pure blood on its own."

Chu Zihang took a deep breath, trembling slightly, and said, "Puppet, is it possible to recover?"

Mars gave him a strange look, shook his head and said: "Basically not, the main consciousness of the puppet has been cleaned up, because Loki wants to ensure absolute control."

Chu Zihang remained silent and did not continue to ask.

They went on up, seeing all the coffins, and at last they reached the highest point of the wall.

Looking out, the sea water is constantly undulating slightly, the sky is always the same color, and the surroundings are always semi-dark, like morning or evening. Looking back at the center of the island, I don’t know when the curling fog has obliterated Stonehenge. Even the towering cypress trees have only their tops exposed to the mist.

Everything is between reality and illusion. Standing here seems to have reached the end of the world.

Mars stared intently at the Stonehenge below which was gradually submerged in the mist, and suddenly sneered, "So that's it, what a blindfold!"

Everyone looked at him together, waiting for an answer.

They have reached the top of Shidao, and found strange coffins in caves along the way. Even Frissis, who broke in first, never saw it!
They couldn't help but suspect that there was another gateway to the mysterious place on this island. This might just be a transit station, and the real battlefield was elsewhere.

"Back to Stonehenge! Hurry up, we will be lost on the island when the fog completely covers the island!"

Mars snarled and ran down the forest path first.

"There are two sides to this island, one is alive and the other is dead. Someone opened Stonehenge before we came in, and the world is divided into black and white. We are now on one side, and Frixis and Loki must be on the other side. Stonehenge The formation is the key and the passage!"

On the way, Mars briefly explained, plunged into the fog at the foot of the mountain, and rushed in the direction of Stonehenge.

Chu Zihang and others followed closely behind. The moment they broke through the Stonehenge, the feeling of deja vu from crossing the sea and entering Avalon came again.

They passed through a certain barrier, and the fog in front of them disappeared instantly, and what appeared in front of them was a piece of scorched earth!
There was no life on the pitch-black land, and the sky was blood-red, not the blood-color of the setting sun at twilight, but dark red like blood.

They looked back suddenly, where there were no green and lush mountains, only a scorched black stone mountain remained.

Under the dark blue wind cloak, the god riding on the eight-legged horse raised the gun of destiny high, and cast a shot that must win at the black dragon in the sky!
