Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1181 Twelve Lords
"I don't see Qian Sen and the others here..."

Li Chengxi glanced around and felt uncomfortable that he didn't see Qian Sen or even Qian Sen's bones, which meant he had to continue walking inside.

"Brother Li, look ahead, ahead!"

Li Chengxi was very calm, but about twenty meters in front of him, a giant bull made of brass and flame, about seven or eight meters tall, was charging towards Li Chengxi.

Every step it takes causes the ground to tremble terribly, and the flying flames that wrap around its entire body are even more terrifying. The scorching temperature can be felt from a long distance away.

However, Li Chengxi only raised his hand to show his importance to this thing.

A layer of fine golden light gathered in front of him to form a thick shield, and the bull crashed into it with a deafening metallic sound.

Not only did it fail to knock Li Chengxi back a single step, but the brass bull itself was actually shocked to the point of nearly falling down.

Li Chengxi then pressed down with his other hand and made a closing gesture with both hands.

The dizzy bull was immediately squeezed by the invisible force in the air. Without even a sound, his body was crushed into a pile of scrap metal.

The flames that enveloped it also dispersed with a whoosh, leaving only a pile of twisted and deformed parts falling to the ground.

"Let's go on."

Anyway, along the way, it was basically Li Chengxi who was in the front to deal with everything, and at most Tang Xiaoqin would provide assistance, and the others were basically just watching the show, and everyone had become numb.

But Li Chengxi was already feeling annoyed. It was never-ending, right?
"How long will it take to get to the end?"

"It shouldn't be long."

Gan Xiaoyan followed and said:

"This place should have been built according to the arrangement of the twelve gods of Olympus, but the order may be messed up."

"Um... so there are twelve in total?"

"Well, we just discussed that, except for the Minotaur in the beginning, each of the rooms after that actually corresponds to a god in mythology."

After the Minotaur is the undead army, corresponding to Pluto in Roman mythology, which is Hades in Greek mythology.

Medusa was cursed by Athena and turned into a Gorgon, so she represents Minerva in Roman mythology.

The giant squid that suddenly jumped out of the large pool is easy to understand. It corresponds to the god of the sea Poseidon, also known as Neptune in Roman mythology.

After this, the flying dagger is Mercury (Hermes).

The giant high-brightness, high-heat light bulb that was broken by Li Chengxi was Phoebus (Apollo).

The white stag represents Diana (Artemis).

The marble soldier, more than ten meters high, represents the god of war Mars (Ares).

Thunderclouds belonged to Jupiter (Zeus), the god of the sky.

The bull made of flame and brass is obviously Vulcan (Hephaestus), the god of fire and forging.

This is certainly not a groundless association. In addition to the fact that each monster can indeed correspond to the other, the star map seen in the room with the flying dagger can also prove this point.

"So there are three more?"

Since they are the twelve gods of Olympus and have already seen nine opposing difficulties and monsters, naturally there are only three left.

But Gan Xiaoyan shook her head:
“There should be one left.”

"why?"

"The star map we saw earlier had stars marked in black. If the stars on the star map represent the Greek gods, then the black stars should represent parts that do not exist or have not been completed. In fact, we have never encountered monsters or difficulties related to the gods represented by the black stars."

The order and membership of the Twelve Olympian Gods are not fixed, and there are some differences in different myths and written records.

For example, Hades is sometimes considered one of the twelve gods, and sometimes not, which is very confusing.

"Just tell me the result directly." It's not known whether others were confused or not, but Li Chengxi felt very confused after listening to Gan Xiaoyan's explanation.

"The star map does have all the stars representing Greek gods marked out. Excluding the black stars, the last room is likely to represent Juno, or Hera, the Queen of Heaven in Greek mythology."

All Li Chengxi knew about Hera was that she was Zeus' wife, and she seemed to be very jealous.

Nothing else.

But Gan Xiaoyan's expression seemed to become a little serious.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

"No, I'm not nervous."

Gan Xiaoyan said:

"Brother Li, I had a dream before that Director Qian was trapped by a big snake. Thinking about it carefully, it just happens to match the current situation."

"why?"

"Hera's symbol is the great snake."

Now that I think about it, Gan Xiaoyan's vision is really quite good. No wonder she was recruited to work in the Ninth Department since high school.

Gan Xiaoyan's original intention was to remind Li Chengxi not to be careless, as the situation might be difficult to deal with.

However, Li Chengxi didn't take it to heart as usual. After all, he had always been able to get along with people the second they met.

As they were talking, they came to a door.

This is the only place where a door can be seen in the entire ruins. Before this, it was at most just a doorway, and sometimes it was just a crack in the wall that could be passed through, which seemed very perfunctory.

This door was also made of marble, with golden floral decorations in the door frame and, on the other side, a line of Latin letters that looked like they were scratched on the plaster with fingernails.

'This is your last chance. You will face the messenger of nature incarnate.'

Although she is called Queen Hera, in fact Hera is the embodiment of natural forces, roughly similar to Chautia, the mother of the earth. In terms of powerful strength in mythology, she may be stronger than Zeus. After all, when Zeus proposed to Hera, he said that he would share his authority with Hera, so Hera can also use wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Simply put, Hera is the goddess of the earth, and the embodiment of the earth is a snake in many myths.

But it was a myth after all. Li Chengxi still turned a deaf ear to the warning on the door. He simply kicked the door apart from the outside and walked in recklessly.

Unlike all the rooms I've passed through before, this one is very spacious, and every wall is carefully carved and decorated.

Skilled craftsmen in ancient times used marble, gold, silver, gems, and plaster to build a room comparable to a palace. Huge braziers were stuck on the walls and arranged outside to provide ample lighting for the entire room.

But unlike what Li Chengxi had imagined, where he would see a giant snake as soon as he entered the room, at the end of the room, he could only see a huge stone tablet.

So this is very strange. You say it is a temple, so there must be a statue of god. What’s the point of just a stone tablet?
Charlie, who was following behind him, looked around the room and soon heard the sound of flipping through a notebook:

"The advance team has no record of this room. This room did not exist when the ruins were discovered."

This probably also proves from the side that we have finally found the right place, right?
As we approached the stone tablet, we could see from afar that there seemed to be some round objects under the shadow of the stone tablet. However, they were on the back of the stone tablet and the blind spot of the flame lighting was too large, so we couldn't see them clearly.

Just as he was about to get closer, the stone tablet began to glow.

It emits a light green light, and the light quickly spreads and fluctuates like water waves.

Layers of light green halos burst out from the stone tablet and spread in all directions.

This did not seem to be an attack. The light waves swept across everyone, and no one felt any physical discomfort. However, the light waves seemed to be able to penetrate rocks. It was not blocked by any material and spread to a very far place.

It must be said that it is normal for Hera's stone slab to glow green. After all, Zeus has cuckolded her countless times, which is literally the meaning of making the cuckold panic.

However, Li Chengxi stopped immediately when the light wave appeared. For the first time, he frowned slightly and looked a little solemn.
