Soul of Burning Steel

v3 Chapter 38: Hit (physical) to open the door

From Joshua’s decision to go to the Giant Pyramid, until he arrived, it didn’t take much time to tell the truth. It took only a few minutes in total. 〔Take a princess back to modern times〕

The speed of the golden powerhouse's flight can break through the sound, with the fluorescent white fog as the coordinates, everyone does not need to worry about losing their position, and naturally quickly reached the side of the huge pyramid.

From the side, it can be seen that there are obvious signs of weathering and erosion on the tracks of this miraculous mobile fortress. The erosion of magic and material by the surrounding environment inevitably turns these once-perfect creations into rust-stained ones. It looks good from a distance. Looking closer, there are obvious cracks in many parts, and yellow and black stains are everywhere.

However, in contrast, on the huge silver-white trapezoidal pyramid, Joshua unexpectedly did not see any traces of time erosion. He even noticed when he was flying on his back, on the smooth three sides of the pyramid without steps, In fact, there are countless reliefs, but because the reliefs are too huge, and there is really no bright light source in this world, it was completely impossible to notice when viewing them from afar.

At the top of this relief, there are waves like white clouds, and below are the totems of countless birds of all kinds, and at the bottom are the patterns of the earth and the ocean, mountains, cities, people and huge ships are all in it, just like Draw a whole world.

And the crystal ball suspended at the bottom of the tower is naturally a symbol of the sun-just like this world, the sun is shrouded in darkness, the sky is dark and dark, the golden light in this crystal ball is also very weak, it seems to be always there. Extinguished, but even so, it faintly exudes a sacred and orderly power, maintaining its own form.

"It's unspeakably magnificent... However, it stands to reason that more than a thousand years have passed. Why can it maintain such a perfect shape?"

Joshua stopped in the air. He looked at the huge building in front of him, thinking carefully: "Such a huge fortress, it has not been destroyed by the gods, there must be certain self-defense methods, and there is a certain way to approach it rashly. Danger...need to try it out first."

Without hesitation, he immediately gathered a group of red grudge in his hand, and then "sent" it from a distance to the vicinity of the pyramid, but strangely, this group of grudge did not encounter any obstacles, but he slowly shrank. Then before touching the silver-white steel relief, it dissipated naturally.

"A defense of the nature of plundering...In this case, it is not a hazard."

Nodding thoughtfully, Joshua learned a lot of information through the temptation just now: "The reason also makes sense."

Rin, who was carried on his back, hesitated for a while, and then said softly: "Master, I feel that the breath of the magical machine I felt before did not come from the remains of the magical machine underground, but from here."

As he said, he pointed his finger at the middle area of ​​the huge pyramid: "The breath is inside, and it is very obvious."

"Inside?"

After pondering for a while, Joshua turned sideways. He said to Moria and Kleel behind him: "Two, we are going to land. [Rebirth of the giants]"

This was originally the goal of everyone, so it didn't take long for everyone to land on the base of this mobile city.

Mottled rust is spread all over the huge base shaped by a whole piece of steel. On the metal plate that is huge enough to hold a city, there are clearly visible signs of decay, and there are densely packed strange cracks, even moss and moss in the past. The traces left by the mold can be clearly seen.

In admiration, Joshua also discovered that since he came to this base, the negative state of his body has disappeared immediately. At this time, the warrior feels as if he has returned to a normal world and no longer has to spend energy to deal with the chaotic power outside. Invasion.

But just as he carefully observed his surroundings, looking for some clues that might be left behind, a loud voice suddenly came from behind him.

"I found a complete bone here, come and have a look."

Moria's voice was as loud as all the other dwarves, even if he was older, his voice was a bit hoarse, but it was enough to spread everywhere. Qiao Xiu naturally came quickly. He followed the old dwarf's gaze and looked down and saw a corpse almost turned into a bone among the cracks in the iron ground of the base.

Claire also came here, looking at this skeleton, she used magic power to transform three phantom canes, carefully pierced into the gap, took them out, and sent them to everyone.

Qiao Xiu squatted down and carefully observed the skeleton without clothing leftovers. Within two seconds, he roughly restored the image of the bone owner in front of him.

This is a race that looks very similar to humans, with similar facial features and body. In different places, this race has one or more pairs of wings, and its bones are more fragile. As for the internal organs, according to the distribution of bones, the position and performance of the other party's organs should be very different from those of humans. This can be seen from the fact that the other party's ribs are plates instead of strips.

"This skeleton is a bit like the Yarongyi people who were extinct due to drastic environmental changes before the legendary era of glory."

Claire also saw a familiar feeling: "In the Druid History Witness Hall in the far south, there is a collection of the skeleton fossils of the Yarongyi people, and there is indeed a similarity to this bone."

"But it doesn't help us in our current situation."

Slowly standing up, Joshua frowned. Just as he was about to say to look for other peculiarities, Joshua's eyes suddenly condensed.

He vaguely saw a few characters in the smudge beside the bones.

"and many more."

He immediately put the skeleton aside, and then brushed the surface of the steel base with a grudge, sweeping away the stains, rust marks, and all kinds of messy dirt. Suddenly, dozens of them were obviously incomparable. The characters appeared in front of Joshua's eyes like this: "There are words here...This is an iron plate, which collapsed many years ago. If you don't look carefully, you really won't find it."

Without a lot of words, Joshua simply swept away all the dust and rust on this iron plate, and immediately, a small stone slab about three meters long and two meters wide appeared in front of everyone.

"The text cannot be read."

After looking at it for a while, the old dwarf simply shook his head and said: "At a glance, it is indeed similar to Common Language, but in fact it is completely different."

Claire hesitated for a moment, and pronounced one or two words: "Even though, Crystal Sun..." But it was only one or two words. The elf also shook his head and said, "This language has a hint of astral language. There is only a trace of similar traces."

Qiao Xiuya is naturally completely incomprehensible. He was originally the son of an earl in a rural area—the Northland is indeed a rural area. Even with the addition of his previous life, he is only a legendary player specializing in pvp, how could he tell the difference? Such a high-end thing in another world language?

But I don’t understand, I don’t understand—but he has a system!

"System, translation."

Following Qiao Xiu's order, a progress bar loyally appeared before his eyes.

40, 42, 46……100

The progress bar jumped quickly, and after only a few minutes, the system prompts that the translation was successful.

"It's not a magic language, it's just a kind of lingua franca. It's not difficult to translate at all."

While watching the translation result given by the system, Qiao Xiu read it out:

"Even if the shining sun of heaven goes out, we will use the element as a furnace to recast the sun of crystal."

"Even though the world is decayed, we will use steel as the dome to reshape the land of vitality."

"The people of Karlis will never give up, even if the world is destroyed, we must struggle for survival on the bones of the world."

In addition to the opening sentence, similar to the slogan of the publicity, the steel board at the back wrote a lot of praise words and sentences in bits and pieces, and also wrote some general progress of their history, which is similar to Joshua’s secret letter from the old housekeeper. He knew almost the same, even if there was a slight discrepancy, he didn't care too much.

In general, after reading this iron plate, Qiao Xiu can understand why the mobile fortress under him was built.

The Carlisians—just call them that. They were once a magical civilization with extremely advanced alchemy. Their void ships can enter and exit the astral void, travel multiple worlds, and they are also considered a name in the multiverse. In theory, their great alchemy can destroy the entire surface and reshape the world's ecosystem.

However, due to a sneak attack by a certain Void God, the essence of their civilization was destroyed. In addition, the civilized style was restrained. The pure energy magic firearms cannot be like vindictive and live ammunition firearms, which will cause great damage to the Cthulhu family-desolate gods. The killing caused them to lose again and again in the process of resistance. After the Battle of the Plains, they couldn't even hold the mother world, and they could only retreat to the major mobile war fortresses to resist the tide of desolate army.

In the process of resistance, their alchemy progressed by leaps and bounds, the degree of completion of the magic machine was getting higher and higher, and the mobile fortresses were getting bigger and bigger. To some extent, they could fight back a little, but because the entire world of Karlis was eroded by chaos. , [The fire of the sky] The sun gradually extinguished, causing the earth to fall into a cold winter, everything rotted and could no longer survive, causing them to almost extinct their race... At this time, someone proposed to create a new ecosystem in the man-made environment. This is the source of this huge pyramid fortress at the feet of Joshua and others.

The following history did not describe much, but Joshua knew that this move did not lead them to success. In the end, when the Carlisians finally saw a glimmer of victory, the body of the Void Cthulhu was finally able to stretch out one. The tentacles, descending on this polluted world, completely crushed their resistance-Divine Machine is cast from the crystals of the gods, and does not have the self-will like Joshua's Hotaru and Rin, how can they resist the call of the evil gods? ? Naturally, it is against the water before the battle.

"It seems that the giant crystal ball should be the'Crystal Sun' in the inscription."

After reading all the words written on the slate, Joshua looked up at the huge crystal ball with a faint golden light at the top of the pyramid in the eyes of Moria and Claire looking at the alien creatures, and he muttered Muttered to himself: "Calculated based on the energy fluctuations that I feel now, in the heyday, maybe it can really emit light similar to the sun... And the nature that Clerelle felt should be the artificial ecosystem in it ."

Behind the slate, there are some contents, but those contents are nothing more than signs to show the way. Joshua and the others are now in the place where the Carlisians landed on the empty boat and transported people. This The slate is used to introduce the history of the fortress and guide the way.

Ignore the old dwarves and elves like ‘how does he understand? ’’Is this man a human? 'Wait for the incredible eyes and worshipful eyes, Joshua pointed to the crystal sun at the top of the pyramid in front of him, and said to everyone: "If you want to enter the pyramid, you must first go to the top sun and receive the blazing sun. The purification of the radiance makes sure that there are no seeds of chaos in your body, and the entrance is also above.

"What are you waiting for."

With a deep sigh, Moria, who felt that she was really old, said, "Let's go."

As a result, everyone walked on the steel base and walked towards the steps of the pyramid.

Joshua could feel that the closer to this silver-white pyramid, the stronger the power of order, and the less negative states caused by the gray mist, and even a faint positive state emerged. However, on the other hand, his whole body's vindictiveness is becoming increasingly unable to be released, and the surrounding order has been strengthened to a terrifying level. Without the authorized power, he can't use it outside at all.

Moria as a warrior is okay, but the face of the Elf Druid as a half of the legal system is a bit ugly, and the human form is a psionic creature-at this time, Joshua is carrying him on his back. , A look of weakness.

The speed of everyone's advancement was not slow, and soon they came to the top of the pyramid.

Rin and Kleel took the lead in following Joshua’s instructions to say compliments before the huge crystal sun. Then, a few golden rays of light shot out of the crystal, submerged in their bodies, and expelled one. A large cloud of black mist. Afterwards, Kleel felt that he could use spells again, and Rin also regained his spirit.

The old dwarf and Joshua have purified their bodies one after another, but it is strange that Joshua’s body does not have the slightest chaotic filth at all, it is clean, as if it is not in the same world as Moria and the others. Like.

After all the members were successfully purified, they came to the entrance recorded on the iron plate.

After trying for a while, the old dwarf faced the tightly closed steel door and said strangely: "What's the matter, we obviously followed the record on the iron plate, how could it not work?"

"I sensed that there is actually an energy response inside."

Claire whispered, "But something seems to have happened and the door did not open."

"strange."

Moria tried several more times, but was unable to open the mechanism. He suddenly became a little annoyed: "What is going on? How can the mechanism of this group of Carlisians be inferior to the goblins? Even though the dwarf's stuff is occasionally It will shock people's hearts and explode, but at any rate it is still useful!"

He completely ignored the fact that he was not much taller.

"Master Moria, let me open the door for the time being, I will open the door."

Qiao Xiu pushed the old dwarf to the side. He took a deep breath, and then circulated the fighting energy in his body, bursting out his body's ultimate strength!

[God's power! 】

The shock wave carried infinite energy, and the blood rushed like a river. In the shocking eyes of other people, Joshua stretched out his hands and slammed the center of the huge steel door like two mountains—— Suddenly, the extremely strong door wailed, and Joshua’s ten fingers were inserted into the gap in the door~lightnovelpub.net~Boom! Boom boom boom!

Muscle agitation, accompanied by a harsh scratching sound, is nearly ten meters high and can enter and exit the door of a huge alchemy machine. In this way, compared to its extremely small warrior, it is opened little by little, Qiao Xiu Ya continued to exert strength and energy, and even a turbulent flow of translucent air was generated around his body, and accompanied by the sound of a siren that resounded throughout the world, the pyramid was a solid steel door that could not be opened. It was completely'opened' by Qiao Xiuya abruptly!

"call."

After taking a breath, Joshua dissipated the burst of power in his body, and the skin that was reddened by the blood flow returned to its original color. He satisfactorily looked at the door that he had torn open and the entrance behind him with satisfaction. , Nodded and said: "I said so, what mechanism can maintain a perfect state for hundreds of thousands of years? Even if it can, it is impossible in this decadent fire-free world."

He greeted everyone behind him who was almost looking at monsters: "Come on, we have to buy time and explore the inside of this pyramid as soon as possible... It's best to find some supplies."
