Chapter 147 Lost Relics, Buried History

The ruins of the Giant City are dark, buried underground for who knows how many years.

Wayne looked at the obelisk in the distance in wonder. It was very large and majestic, reaching the top of the mountain. It was even taller than the Elemental Mountain.

So, why wasn't it discovered?

Wayne was not referring to the members of the Church of Death. This group did not count. Like him, they were latecomers to the era.

He was referring to his ancestors.

Such a large stele was unearthed through casual digging. It was discovered on the same day and cut the next day. It was then taken to the Windsor Museum for exhibition, demonstrating the demeanor of a great country.

So, why hasn’t it been discovered yet? It’s not difficult to get in!
Wayne couldn't figure it out and suspected there was another way here. He subconsciously waved his hand and pulled open a wall of earth to block the entrance of the crack in the stone wall.

The trigger traps he left behind were broken one by one. Phantom spores, sleeping spores, and parasitic spores were arranged in combinations. He was confident that no matter how many ordinary people came, they would be defeated. The magician would be skinned alive even if he didn't die. There was plenty of time to find the stone slab.

"No time to be in a daze. I have good eyesight and I saw a big guy. Let's go over there and take a look."

Wayne flicked off the fireball with his fingertips, and it floated in front of him to illuminate the ground. Then he took the lead and let Mona walk in front.

Walk quickly and be careful not to step on the traps.

The Giant City ruins have rich reserves of the four elements, as high as two and a half London sewers. If the entire mining area has such an exaggerated element content, the name "Element Mountain" is well deserved.

"Mona, do you know the history of how the Elemental Mountain got its name?"

"I don't know."

Mona shook her head. The Elemental Mountain was not a strategic location and was rarely marked on the map.

When the copper mine was still there, some people still mentioned it. But after it was abandoned, the residents of Silent Hill moved away, and most of them went to work as screwdrivers in factories in big cities, and no one was interested in it anymore.

As for the origin of the name of the Elemental Mountain, Mona put it into practice and taught Wayne not to always look at problems with a magician's mindset. Aren't gold, silver, copper and iron also elements?
"Hey, you learn pretty fast."

Wayne didn't ask for the result. He was too lazy to waste his brain cells to reason. It didn't matter whether Element Mountain was a holy place for cultivation in the past. Even if it was, so what? He was not in that era.

The two walked faster and faster in the darkness, without triggering a single trap along the way. Perhaps it was because the mechanism had been in disrepair, or perhaps the trap only targeted large creatures, such as the giant himself, or perhaps there was no mechanism here at all. Wayne arrived at the obelisk half an hour earlier than expected.

This is a square pillar with a pointed top. It looks tall and majestic from a distance, but when you get closer, you can't even see the top of the monument if you look up.

Wayne roughly estimated that the length of one side of the cube alone was more than 300 meters, and the overall height...

Definitely much higher than the Elemental Mountains.

This is not the first time Wayne has encountered overlapping spaces. The small town of Kafuno where death is constant, the foggy world encountered on the way to Jianhe County, the ruined ancient city where the Thousand-Eyed Demon descended, and even the lava territory swallowed by the Gate of Hell are all best examples of overlapping spaces.

The God-chosen Continent is not stable and can be easily disturbed by the outside world!
Wayne walked around the obelisk and saw a large number of horizontal, oblique and vertical grooves on the surface of the cube. These lines interspersed the four sides of the obelisk, like energy transmission tracks, giving it a very sci-fi feel.

Wayne blinked and imagined a star-destroying cannon in his mind. The four elements were used as energy. With one shot, the moon would be gone.

The Moonlight Goddess is so miserable!

No, the town next door is Eclipse Town, so the one that got blown up should be the sun.

Wayne put on gloves and touched the surface of the obelisk. The rock particles were obvious and it was not made of metal.

He tried to input a ray of magic power, and a white light spread on the surface of the obelisk. The light gradually weakened and completely faded after spreading out for about ten meters.

Magic conductivity is excellent.

It’s confirmed that it’s a star destroyer cannon, and some criminals want to fire at the goddess!
Seeing what Wayne did, Mona followed suit and tried to find some relic text on the surface of the obelisk, but the reality was very bleak and she found nothing.

The two worked for more than ten minutes but found nothing.

"Maybe the slate isn't here."

Mona looked at the dark ruins of the Giant City and said worriedly, "Let's go. Even with thousands of people, it would be difficult to search all the ruins in a short time. Let's leave here first, so as not to be blocked by the people of the Church of Death."

Is there a possibility that this obelisk is the so-called stone slab?

Wayne looked up at the sky. For humans, a square stone slab is thirty centimeters long and wide, and the largest it can be is a tombstone.

But the people who built the ruins were giants, so it was impossible for them to make the stone slabs the size of a fingernail. Just looking at their architectural style that advocates "big is justice", the more important things are, the bigger they are made, so you can imagine the scale of the stone slabs they made.

The question is, if his guess is true, do the people of the Church of Death know that the stone slab is the obelisk? If they know, how will they transport the obelisk away, and where will they transport it to?

Such a big thing will be extremely conspicuous wherever it is placed. There must be a way to make it smaller.

Wayne was just thinking when a loud noise suddenly came from the distance. The earth wall he erected was violently shattered, and the sound was particularly loud in the ruins where you could hear a pin drop.

"Coming after me."

Mona frowned. After resting for several hours, she had gotten over the dizziness and nausea, but when it came to participating in high-intensity combat, she would be a drag.

"Let's go. Let's hide and find a vantage point first. Let them explore the ruins. If there are too many people, we will be ready to run away." Wayne patted Mona and walked towards the dark area behind him.

Let's set up an ambush first. Whether we can find the lost stone tablet today depends on the performance of the Church of Death.

I hope he won’t be disappointed, otherwise he’ll get mad and turn into a Death Knight, and everyone will be embarrassed.

Mona moved at high speed, following Wayne two body lengths behind, and when she saw the opportunity, she reached out and grabbed him.

Caught!
Wayne stopped stiffly, slapped the hand off his butt, and was speechless: "Detective Mona, what are you doing?"

"It was too dark, and I missed a step and accidentally bumped into it." Mona apologized repeatedly. She didn't mean to do it and her foot slipped.

Believe in you!
Wayne rolled his eyes, tiptoed, and ran quickly to the west.

Of course he knew what Mona meant. She was just relying on her memory of the feel of her hand to try to identify a person by his fart.

It's so funny. When he was in disguise, he had modified everything from head to toe through the essence of life. The shape of his hips had changed beyond recognition, and even the feel was different. How could he be recognized?

Wayne was so confident in his disguise that Mona wouldn't be able to recognize him even if he tried a hundred times.

Having said that, I still felt a little wary. The female detective acted quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, and it was obvious that she had become suspicious.

This made Wayne very puzzled. He didn't remember exposing any part of himself... If he had just patted the other person's butt while carrying him up, every mentally healthy pervert would do that. It wouldn't be a reason to doubt him.

What is going wrong?
Wayne was at a loss for words, smart women were too difficult to deal with, he wanted three ships.

Mona frowned and followed Wayne, looking at her hands from time to time. Although the feeling was not right, her woman's intuition told her that Wayne and Bruce were most likely the same person.

"Wayne, why aren't you talking? Is that..."

"Call me boss!"

"Boss, why don't you say anything? Are you still angry with me? How about this, just touch me back..."

"Shut up!"

Wayne interrupted and said unhappily, "Detective Mona, I remember that you are a clergyman. As a nun, you shouldn't behave so wantonly. If you do it again, don't come to work at the detective agency."

The tone was very serious, no joke, Mona felt her heart beat faster when she heard it, this was how Bruce scolded her.

More and more alike!
Wayne was halfway through his words when he suddenly felt the light around him become much brighter, and he could see the outline of the ruins without the help of super vision.

A creepy strange laugh sounded from the sky. Wayne looked up and saw a huge skull head high above the ruins.

The skull was about ten meters tall, a magical creation that continued to rise into the sky like a small sun, emitting a cold, gray light like death.

Affected by this energy, Mona's face looked extremely ugly. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's a golden mage. If an ordinary person were to bathe in this light for a long time, they would be affected by the environment and become undead creatures."

"Find a room to squat in. It doesn't matter if you can't get out of the sun." Wayne quickened his pace.

----

The crevice entrance to the ruins was violently widened by the members of the Church of Death, and is now wide enough for several people to pass through at the same time.

Rows of skeleton soldiers walked in first, followed by members of the Church of Death headed by Sebastian. Looking at the dark underground ruins, Sebastian raised his stick.

The skull carving on the top clicked its upper and lower jaws together, and translucent energy rose into the air, soaring to ten meters in the air, emitting light and dispelling darkness, allowing everyone to see the world more clearly.

Big!
The strong visual impact made everyone open their eyes wide, breathe rapidly, and exclaim in amazement.

"Fcuk!"
There is no need to elaborate on the scale of the Giant City ruins. Just picking out a long straight road is enough for the skeleton soldiers present to walk side by side.

Sebastian poked the civilized stick in his hand, chanted a spell briefly, and summoned the three skeleton knights he was proud of.

All three knights are wearing armor. The black armor is almost the same style as the Death Knight, and their swords are also hung on the horse's back.

However, looking similar does not mean having the same strength. In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the three Skeleton Knights, Sebastian added thermal weapons equipment to them.

Two knights were holding heavy machine guns with ammunition belts wrapped around their arms, and one knight was carrying a sniper rifle with two rows of grenades wrapped around his waist.

The times are advancing, and magicians must keep up with the pace of the times, otherwise they will be shot in the head by a sniper rifle from eight hundred miles away before noon.

From this point of view, Sebastian is obviously stronger than other gold mages.

Enchanting planes, cannons, and battleships is just around the corner!

With the help of the rising white skull, Sebastian's vision widened again. Looking down from a high vantage point, he took in the entire ruins of the Giant City. In ten seconds or so, he saw the two little mice fleeing to the west.

"Oscar, the two rats are in the west. You take a team of skeleton soldiers to deal with them. If you can capture them alive, send them to me. I want to turn them into skeleton soldiers myself. If you can't capture them alive, bring their bodies here." Sebastian ordered.

A burly miner walked out from the front of the crowd. He had a face that Wayne envied very much, with a face full of flesh. He didn't even need to put on makeup to play a villain. He just had to stand there.

Oscar took his brothers from the stronghold and led fifty skeleton soldiers to leave in a mighty manner.

Sebastian frowned slightly, thinking of Dunn who was killed by the natural mage. Just in case, he recited a complicated and lengthy spell.

High in the sky, the eyes of the huge skull emitted black light and it made a strange laugh. Two pure black energy crows flapped their wings and flew out, flying towards where Wayne and Mona were.

Add the curse of death and it will be foolproof!

"The rest follow me..."

Sebastian looked at the obelisk in the distance, marveling at the fact that the oracle conveyed by the Death Knight was indeed true. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Lost relics, buried history, everything in the past will eventually return to the embrace of death. Isn't this a kind of fate?"

----

The white skull laughed strangely, and two black crows flew out of its eye sockets, heading straight for Wayne and Mona who were hiding deep in the ruins.

The houses in the ruins were particularly tall. As soon as Wayne climbed up a high wall, he saw the curse falling from the sky from afar.

The goddess of death is high above, and three subordinate gods hold divine power and govern the kingdom of God for the goddess. The curse of death is generally divided into three types.

Wayne was fortunate enough to experience the curse of Observer Griew once. His condition was not serious. The ones who were really unlucky were Willy and Chris. The former changed her sex, and the latter not only changed her sex but also her species.

The Observer's curse did not kill Wayne or anyone else. This had a lot to do with the Observer's personality. He would not kill the other person directly through the curse, but would rather torture the other person to make him collapse on his own.

Therefore, Observer Gru is also called the Spider of Doom.

In comparison, Judge Sene doesn't have so many tricks. The Soul-Eating Crow sounds very evil, simple and straightforward, and will kill with one move.

If we have to say the difference, it is nothing more than dying suddenly on the spot and dying slowly in pain.

Mona climbed up the high wall and looked at the crows coming at her at a high speed. She was horrified and used holy light magic to defend herself.

This was her last thought!
Wayne didn't stop her and waited quietly for Mona to push open a wall of holy light.

The strange cawing sound approached, and two black crows disappeared into the holy light and shadow one after another, and their momentum suddenly slowed down.

Immediately afterwards, a crow flapped its wings and flew out, its eyes glowing red, and flew straight into Wayne's chest.

"Ah! I'm going to die!"

Wayne let out a soft cry, his face looking as gray as if he were about to die.

Mona sat on the ground dizzy, her eyelids trembling. She bit her lips tightly, using the pain to avoid fainting on the spot.

There was no time to worry about Wayne's situation, as a second crow flew out, folded its wings and crashed into her.

Mona had no choice but to close her eyes tightly.

Three seconds later, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the figure standing in front of her in astonishment.

"Wayne, are you okay?"

Although it is unclear how Wayne diverted the curse, being hit by the Soul-Eating Crow twice in a row means the terrible effect of the curse is definitely not as simple as one plus one.

His straight back swayed slightly, and he uttered a weak voice that was trying to hold back the pain: "I'm fine, the key is you, go to sleep if you're tired, don't force yourself."

Wayne was more than good, he was too good. When the crow entered his body, it was just like him returning to his nest. When he saw it was a misunderstanding, he reconciled it on the spot.

By the way, I gave some snacks to the Book of Greed.

The quantity is not large, but it’s better than nothing.

Wayne advised Mona to fall down quickly, as there were many people on the opposite side and he was eager to transform and become the boss!
Mona refused, and stood up from the ground with her exhausted mind. Her legs were weak and trembling, and she grabbed Wayne's sleeve to avoid falling down: "I still have a little bit of mind left, let's see if I can transfer the curse. If it's you, you will definitely be able to escape."

Wayne was shocked by her spirit of sacrifice, but her brilliance was so dazzling that he felt ashamed of himself.

Look on the bright side, at least his feeling is right.

"Go to sleep, maybe everything will be fine when you wake up." Wayne said gently and raised his hand to touch Mona's face.

The sweet scent of flowers spread, Mona's eyelids were heavy, and she was breathing heavily and almost losing consciousness. She grabbed Wayne's collar fiercely: "This may be a long sleep. Tell me, are you...are you Bruce?"

"I've never heard of this name. You got the wrong person."

Wayne raised his hand and pinched Mona's neck, then laid her limp body flat on the ground. After thinking for a while, he felt it was not appropriate, so he jumped down with her in his arms, climbed through the window that looked like a city gate, and entered the giant's room.

Wayne laid Mona flat on the ground, waved his hand to erect four earth walls to ensure that the other party would not be affected by the battle, and then looked towards the direction of the obelisk.

"The hunt begins!"
