Denise reminded him, "That's roughly the case, but it can't be counted that way when you get to the South Territory. You can only count as level five." "The canon of the Holy Light Church clearly states that mortals cannot become true gods. The status of true gods is supreme and cannot be measured." "Generally speaking, when a strong person reaches the Saint level, there is no need to measure the level anymore, so the strong people of the human race can only be called Saints now." "If you have the opportunity to go to the South, don't let anything slip, lest you bring disaster upon yourself." Then she became naughty again: "So one day, even if you become a true god, you can only be Riosai, not Riodin." In the imperial elegant language, the name of a saint would be suffixed with "Sai", and the name of the true God would be suffixed with "Ding" to show respect. But the Imperial Elegant Language is originally a kind of ancient language, and only the Church of the Holy Light still uses it. Outside the Church of the Holy Light, basically no one is willing to use it. At least the people in the North will not call their ancestors "Tildin". At this time, the team had packed up and was ready to set off. The killed wolves were thrown on the riverbank, and only the most intact parts of their fur and some fangs were peeled off as trophies for the adventure group. Old Pete also took away a piece of wolf liver, preparing to fry it for everyone in the evening.
Harkins walked up to Leo and said in a deep voice: "Leo, if we go any further, the journey will be more dangerous. If you don't want to get involved, you can quit now." Denise also said, "Yes, your guide mission has basically been completed. If you turn back from here, you can still go back alone. If you go forward, you will have to follow us all the way to the end." To be honest, Leo was a little scared by the wolf's attack. These powerful monsters were not something an ordinary person like Leo could fight against. But Leo didn't want to back down. Unlike the adventurers he had seen in movies, the Firefly Adventure Group appeared to be strong and experienced. They were not like a group of greedy and insane people who rushed headlong into danger and risked their lives to clear a path. So if you follow them, your life will be more or less guaranteed. Danger always accompanies opportunity. Going back now is certainly safe, but Leo might have to stay in the mountains for the rest of his life and be a militia leader. At best, he managed to marry Olivia and inherit Urian's pioneering knighthood. What's more, one gold coin a day, in other words, a daily salary of over ten thousand yuan. It's reasonable to risk your life, right? "No, I will go with you." Leo refused directly. "The situation in the Wolf-Driving Plain is also very important to me. Even if I don't go with you, I will still investigate everywhere." Huggins nodded and said, "Okay, you are responsible for protecting Denise and pay attention to her safety at all times." Continuing to move forward, Lynch, who was exploring the way, found some footprints of gnolls, but never encountered them. After climbing over two mountains, the team finally arrived under a stone pillar. From a distance, these stone pillars stand like tiny candles between the mountains. When you get to their feet, you will find that they are actually huge in size, with a diameter of at least more than 20 meters. Denise walked forward and studied the stone pillar for a while, but found nothing. Finally, she said disappointedly: "It's really just a weathered stone pillar." Lynch and Fisher were nimble and had already climbed to the top of the stone pillar to investigate. After coming down, they shook their heads and said, "There are no signs of human intervention." "This is to be expected. The ruins of the atrium are so easy to find, so it won't be our turn." At this time, Barrett, who was sitting on the edge of the cliff enjoying the cool breeze and the scenery, suddenly pointed to a place under the mountains and shouted, "Look, what is that!"
Everyone gathered at the edge of the cliff and saw some ancient man-made stone pillars scattered halfway up the cliff below the mountains. Only a few of these more than ten-meter-high stone pillars are still intact. There are also giant stone statues carved on the cliffs behind the stone pillars, but huge vines have arched out from the cracks in the stones and destroyed them completely. The broken tiles and ruins were shrouded in the setting sun, exuding an atmosphere of desolation and decay. Harkins looked at it for a while and concluded, "It's a beastman's building. Judging from its specifications, it might be a beastman's storm altar." "The Storm Altar is the orcs' sacrificial site. Only the heroic tribes among the orcs are qualified to build the Storm Altar." The orcs call the powerful saints in the tribe heroes, and the tribe with powerful saints is a heroic tribe. Small tribes simply do not have enough resources to train a Saint. Almost all heroic tribes are large tribes of orcs with a population of over ten thousand. This means that even if this is not the legendary atrium ruins, it is at least an orc city-state! "Let's go and take a look!" Barrett excitedly picked up the two donkeys and walked down the mountain. Everyone looked at each other and followed him down the mountain. Although the rarity of the orc ruins is far less than that of the elven ruins, it can still be considered a major discovery! The orcs' Storm Altar stands in the middle of a cliff in a large canyon. If you don't stand on the top of the mountain or come into the canyon, you can't find it at all. The adventure group rested in the canyon for a night, tasted the fried wolf liver carefully prepared by Old Pete, and finally found the path leading to the cliff the next day. Through a man-made path, everyone came to the top of the canyon cliff. There was an open space of 300 to 400 square meters, with huge stone pillars lying in all directions, with dry vines entwined on them. The foundation under the stone pillars was several meters above the ground, but it was also penetrated and destroyed by the vines that grew like bamboo shoots in spring, turning it into a pile of rubble, making it almost impossible to step on. These stone pillars are just the gates of the altar. The main part of the altar is inside the cliff. The collapsed stone pillars and huge statues almost buried it, but some dark holes are still exposed. The short Fisher crawled into the hole, and after a moment he came out again, saying, "There is no danger." Huggins looked at the size of the hole, then looked at Barrett, and said, "Barrett, you are responsible for standing guard until we come out." "Oh..." Barrett nodded in disappointment. The narrow hole was only wide enough for one person to enter and exit. He was too big, and if the entrance was widened, it might cause collapse. The rest of the people put down their luggage, holding only their self-defense weapons, and crawled into the hole and entered the altar. After crawling four or five meters in the narrow hole, Leo felt that the space in front of him suddenly became wider and spacious. He landed on the ground and stood up, helping Denise behind him to come in and stand firmly. Denise raised her staff and released a ray of light. The ball of light condensed from magic power slowly floated upwards, illuminating the entire interior of the altar. The interior of the altar was unexpectedly large, as if the entire cliff had been hollowed out. Unfortunately, there is nothing inside, it is empty and lonely, without even basic sculptures and decorations, as if it is a large warehouse that has been emptied. As Denise inspected it, she muttered, "This shouldn't be the case. Storm Altar is the orcs' place of worship. Even if it was emptied, the basic structure should have been preserved. There's not even a mural here!" A few people walked to the end of the altar and saw a stone wall in front of them with no way forward. A huge crack ran diagonally from the upper left corner of the stone wall to the lower right corner.
The entire stone wall is twenty meters long from the ground to the dome, as if it was split by a sword. The widest part of the crack is one meter wide and bottomless. There is only this one crack inside the entire altar.
