Wu Chang and He Yun passed through the small temple and headed towards the real location of the stone temple. The small temple is like a dividing line. After the small temple, a large amount of mist of disaster begins to fill the air. Their existence forms a natural human forbidden zone, which is far more effective than any gate. After walking for about ten minutes, Wu Chang and He Yun saw a huge metal gate looming in the fog of disaster. The style of the metal gate is the same as what Wu Chang saw in Zhuo Jie's Resentment. The metal gate is like a bank vault door magnified dozens of times. Just looking at it, no one will doubt its thickness. It can withstand nuclear explosions at close range from the front, so it is not a big problem. Wu Chang can be sure that if you want to use physical means to forcefully break through this gate, let alone the wilderness, even the second level of the abyss, only the top strong ones can do it. Unfortunately, the strongest walls often begin to collapse from within. Metal gates can block the fog of disaster and nuclear explosions, but they cannot block the inner ghost. In resentment, He Yun led the team members into the passage of the gate. At this moment, the safety door was completely removed and replaced with an optional electric door. It's like a bank that builds an indestructible door for its vault, but then opens a small door that can be opened with a push.
Needless to say, this must be the work of Mercury. The two walked through the small door and came to the space where the stone temple was located. The mist of disaster behind the metal gate was at least twice as thick as Zhuo Jie's resentment. The fog in the air was almost solid, especially for Wu Chang who was not using a protective shield. He walked through the almost solid fog, like thousands of fine hairs streaking across the surface of his skin. It's not just hair, but hair that is completely soaked in water, but not clumped into clumps, with distinct roots. Especially when they come into contact with people, they immediately seem to come alive. They are like countless tiny tentacles, twisting excitedly, eager to drill into Wu Chang's body from all seven orifices and even every pore. It's just that Wu Chang's inspiration and will made it impossible for these guys to enter the body. They could only circle around him and then leave unwillingly. It's hard to describe the feeling. Wu Chang wasn't used to the slippery, wet and cold touch that enveloped his whole body at first, but as time went by, he even felt a bit like a massage, and even felt a little comfortable. On the other hand, He Yun's condition was not that good. He Yun's brows had not stretched since entering the stone temple area. Wu Chang noticed that she had been tightening her mouth and biting her lower lip with her upper teeth, as if she was enduring something. He adjusted his pace, walked to He Yun, grabbed He Yun's hand wearing a mecha glove, and asked: "He Yun, are you okay? Do you need to rest for a while?" The moment He Yun was caught by Wu Chang, a moment of astonishment flashed across his face, but she did not struggle and allowed Wu Chang to pull her. She shook her head and said: "I'm fine, I just feel that this place is very familiar, and I vaguely remembered some forgotten memories. These memories flashed back in my mind, making me confused whether they were true or false." Wu Chang said: "You can focus more on your memories. You don't have to worry about warning and path finding. You just need to follow me." He Yun looked at the hand held by Wu Chang and said, "Okay, then everything depends on you." He Yun closed his eyes and began to sort out the chaotic memories in his mind, while Wu Chang held her hand and walked through the thick mist of disaster. The mist hit Wu Chang. Although he felt very comfortable, it was too inconvenient to move. Facing such a thick fog, the technological flashlight brought by He Yun had lost its effectiveness, and Wu Chang needed some extraordinary lighting tools.
So he reached out and took out the Sifang Suihuo Lantern from his backpack. "Item Skill: Year Fire" "Skill Description: Spend 50 points of energy or equivalent fire attribute energy to ignite the Year Fire. Once the Year Fire is ignited, it will burn continuously. Duration: one copy plane. While the Year Fire is burning, reduce the power of your target within the range of the Year Fire. Suffers continuous damage. During the burning period, you can be immune to death once. The cooldown time of immunity to death is: one copy plane." After being integrated with the wick, the Sifang Suihuo Lamp no longer needs to be charged per second. It can burn continuously by consuming 50 energy points at a time. For the original Wu Chang, 50 points of energy was a big number, but now there is basically no burden when using it, which is equivalent to giving away a chance to be immune to death. As the lanterns in all directions were lit, the mist of disaster seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, desperately trying to avoid the surroundings. Visibility was less than two meters before, but now the mist of disaster within a ten-meter radius was cleared, and the world suddenly changed from 270p to 4K high definition. "Item Skill: Teru Xu." "Skill description: The Four Directions Fire Lamp can control flames whose level is lower than its own, and turn the controlled flame into a fire, illuminating evil and driving away plagues, and warding off demons." The effect of clearing away the mist of disaster comes from the illumination of the four-sided fire lamp, which illuminates evil and drives away plagues, and demons ward off disasters. It is a professional counterpart to dealing with such things as the mist of disaster. With enough vision, half of the mysterious veil on the stone temple was torn off. Only four or five minutes later, Wu Chang took He Yun to the gate of the Stone Temple. Looking at the hundred steps in front of the two people, Wu Chang was about to wake up He Yun. When he turned his head, he happened to see He Yun open his eyes. "Are we there yet?" He Yun looked at the stone temple in front of her and was surprised at the rapid progress. She realized something was wrong the second time. Why was the vision around her so clear? Did the fog dissipate? She looked at the four-sided fire lamp in Wu Chang's hand and said in surprise: "Did it dispel the disaster fog? I found that both you and the things you brought restrained the disaster fog, just like..." Seeing that He Yun thought for a while and didn't say anything, Wu Chang said for her: "It's like it appeared specifically to solve the current dilemma." After that, he performed a knight's salute and said solemnly: "Feeling that Miss He Yun was in danger, the Peace Knights were recruited accordingly." He thought He Yun would complain, but who knew that He Yun turned around and took the lead to walk up the stairs. "Hurry up, now is not the time to waste time." Wu Chang curled his lips, thinking that women were really hard to understand, and then caught up with He Yun holding the four-sided fire lamp. Before he could speak, He Yun spoke first: "Just now, I remembered some memories." Wu Chang asked: "Which memories?" He Yun looked at the end of the stairs, "Probably the memory of my brother and I entering the Stone Temple for the first time a long time ago." "I remembered that it was not long after my brother was elected as the leader of the underground shelter. Underground Shelter No. 88 could not produce energy by itself. In many cases, energy had to be obtained through trade with the underground shelter No. 87 next door." "For a long time, our two shelters have been firm partners. Until the underground shelter No. 87 elected a geocentric leader, he closed the shelter after taking office. All trade was stopped, causing several surrounding shelters to fall into an energy crisis. "
"Later, some underground shelters could not stand it, so they united to trick the door of underground shelter No. 87, massacred underground shelter No. 87, and robbed all energy. " "After my brother learned about the situation, he announced that he was also a geocentricist and closed the door of the underground shelter. Because he refused to participate in the massacre, he was not their "own man". Although underground shelter No. 88 did not produce energy, it had a full set of automated farms and automated breeding factories. After solving the energy problem, they would probably solve the food problem next. " At this point, He Yun sighed. "At that time, the No. 88 underground shelter was almost in a state of waiting to die. When the energy ran out, it meant that the door of the shelter would need to be opened to face a war." "At this point in time, we discovered the underground energy mine." He Yun suddenly stopped and turned to look at Wu Chang. She looked at the four-sided Sui Huo lamp in Wu Chang's hand and said: "The discovery of the energy mine is like this lamp in the fog of disaster for us. It gave everyone hope and made the supporters of geocentrism increase from the original 5% to 95% in an instant." "In order to investigate the energy mine, we sent a large number of people to dig underground and finally found this stone temple along the energy reaction." At this point, Wu Chang and He Yun had walked all the steps and came to the platform in front of the temple. Wu Chang saw that He Yun's mood was a little wrong and asked, "Are we going in now?" He Yun nodded and said, "We have come this far, how can we stop here." After entering the temple, He Yun suddenly changed direction, grabbed Wu Chang's hand, and said, "Come with me." Wu Chang:? What does it mean? Why does it sound like "Come on, follow me into the house." Although he didn't know what He Yun meant, Wu Chang still followed He Yun into the house, but the things in the house were not what he imagined. It was a room similar to a tomb, with two open sarcophagi placed in the room. One of them was empty, and in the other sarcophagus, there was a stone-carved human figure lying, with a sparkling pink diamond embedded in the chest of the human figure. It was exactly the same as the "Desire Stone" on He Yun's body. The two sarcophagi were placed on both sides of the room, one on the left and one on the right, and a small stone tablet stood in the middle of the two sarcophagi. Seeing the stone tablet and the stone statue, He Yun suddenly groaned, with a look of pain on his face, his legs softened, and he was about to fall, so Wu Chang hurried forward to support He Yun. Seeing that He Yun could not recover in a short time, he could only slowly put He Yun down and let her lean on him. This was the first time in Wu Chang's life that a member of the opposite sex leaned on his shoulder, but he didn't feel any good from it. The reason was simple. The mecha on He Yun was too uncomfortable. Although the custom-made mecha she wore was not much thicker than Iron Man's mecha, it was angular and not soft at all. He Yun covered her head and struggled for a few minutes before she recovered from the severe headache. She looked at the stone statue in the sarcophagus with a puzzled look on her face. "Why is there still a human stake here?" Wu Chang asked, "Is your condition related to this so-called human stake?" He Yun raised his head from Wu Chang's shoulder, sat on the ground shoulder to shoulder with Wu Chang, and said: "I haven't finished what I said just now."
"We found this stone temple at that time and sent three or four groups of people in. None of them came out alive, but many monsters escaped from it. But the situation of the underground shelter at that time did not allow my brother and I to give up here, so we did not send anyone else and entered the temple in person." "Then, we were trapped in this temple. We didn't know how long we were trapped, it seemed like a week, it seemed like a month. Time lost its meaning here. Just when we were almost unable to hold on, We came to this room by accident.” He Yun pointed to the hieroglyphs on the wall at the door of their room and said: "This house of sacrifice." "During the time we were trapped in the temple, I tried to decipher this hieroglyphics and learned about the past of this temple from the records in the corners of many rooms." Following He Yun's narration, Wu Chang learned about the past of the Stone Temple. The stone temple enshrines a god named the God of Desire. When he was first discovered, he was not very powerful and very easy to talk to. As long as enough grains are offered to Him, He can use his divine power to summon a herd of beasts for people to hunt. Offer delicious fruits to Him, and He will give believers mellow wine. As long as believers satisfy the desires of the gods, the gods will grant grace and satisfy the wishes of the believers who offer sacrifices. This kind of reward is often ten times or a hundred times what you paid for. With material affluence, people's desires continue to grow, from the initial solution of food and clothing to wanting gold, silver and gems, more wisdom and force, and even more land and power. Human desires are growing rapidly, and the desires of the God of Desire are growing faster than humans. Ever since he desired gold, silver, and gems, the God of Desire has longed for human souls. If it is not satisfied, He will control people's desires and turn them into monsters, destroying everything He once gave. In order to appease the gods and obtain more divine gifts, people can only offer enough souls to the gods for every important event, regardless of whether they have wishes or not. In order to comfort themselves, people can only say that the souls of those selected as sacrifices will enter the divine kingdom after death and become guardian gods to protect others. These sacrifices are also called human piles. But as time goes by, the God of Desire's pickiness with sacrifices has gone beyond people's understanding. It is no longer limited to specific requirements such as gender, age, skin color, hair color, and birth date, but has become abstract requirements such as "the soul is shining with light" and "is born to be loved by people." If you can't satisfy it, stick to the old rules and go to Monster. The believers, who had been tortured several times, chose to find a way to kill the god of desire while satisfying the god's desires and trying to maintain the functioning of society. So, after the God of Desire made another request, the believers finally found two qualified human beings after a lot of hardships. As human stakes, before they die, they will receive the gift of the God of Desire. The God of Desire will give the "Rough Stone of Desire" to the human stakes and ask each of them to write a wish on the stone tablet. Any wish written on the stone tablet will be fulfilled by the God of Desire. This is a divine contract signed with the believers when the God of Desire was still weak. So the two people with the task wrote down their wishes. That is to seal the God of Desire and let the temple sink into the ground and never see the light of day. Restricted by the divine contract, the God of Desire could only seal himself in anger.
Wu Chang asked doubtfully: "These believers of the God of Desire, even the information about how they planned to murder the god was engraved in the temple?" He Yun shook his head and said: "They didn't carve everything out. I inferred the conclusion based on the scattered complaints in the temple, the records of a large number of disasters, and the last two wishes on the desire stone tablet." Wu Chang let out a breath, he said, splitting up the assassination plan and carving it in the temple of the god was too cruel a job. If he really did this, Lu Bu would be considered a filial son compared with this group of believers. He heard He Yun say so much, and he was actually aware of what He Yun wanted to express. He asked: "So, you left this stone temple by using the "Rough Stone of Desire"? " He Yun took out the pendant and looked at the raw desire inside, with very complicated eyes. "We took down the stone of desire, and before we could follow our memory to find the stone tablet of desire, we found that the entrance to the lost temple reappeared in front of us. Thinking about it now, we have been trapped by the God of Desire since we were trapped in the stone temple. trap." Wu Chang took advantage of the situation and asked: "Then what will you do with the rough stone of desire after you go out?" He Yun paused for a moment and said in a bitter tone: "I found that it can control the energy in the energy mine and can also control the mist of disaster to a certain extent, so I chose to devote all my efforts to research it." Wu Chang took a breath of cold air and thought to himself, you bitch is really not afraid. You interpret information one by one, but in the end, why don't you learn any lessons at all? Sure enough, the only lesson humans have learned from history is that humans cannot learn anything from history. He Yun felt Wu Chang's gaze and knew what he wanted to say, so he defended: "Our situation at that time did not allow us to choose at all. The energy of the energy mine is not infinite. If we study the Desire Stone, we may repeat the same mistakes and eventually lead to destruction. But if we don't study it, the underground shelter will collapse within a few months." He Yun sighed and changed the subject. "My memory of the Stone Temple is very vague, but I vaguely remember the memory of the human stake and the stone of desire. I said before that I acted with the worst outcome in mind. The so-called worst outcome was to transform into a human stake and use myself to do it. Seal this temple." He Yun seemed to have thought of something, and said with a trembling voice: “But I remember clearly that my brother and I each took a Desire Stone. After we took the Desire Stone, the human stake in the sarcophagus turned into ashes. The two sarcophagi should be empty, so why is there an extra human stake now?”
