Struggle in the Steam Age
Chapter 189: Divine Dip
Before entering this core room, Lawrence had imagined what would be in the core room of the pyramid. From the magnificent temple to the contaminated room full of flesh and blood appeared in Lawrence's mind. But everything in front of him finally exceeded his imagination.
Because what appeared in front of him was a room that looked only more than 100 square meters, the whole room was completely a pool except for a small protruding platform at the entrance.
Unlike the huge pool on the first floor below, although this pool is one size smaller, it looks more vibrant:
The edge of the pool is covered with papyrus and reeds, and in the center of the amber-like water is a huge lotus flower placed on a stone platform. If the knowledge and information that Lawrence obtained before is not problematic, this lotus flower is a gold letter. The side and even the core of the entire astral plane.
Originally, this pool should be a place that looks very harmonious, but this kind of harmony and sacred feeling that should have existed is now completely affected by a series of weird runes, formations and a lot of looks on the surrounding walls. The original equipment in the space is destroyed.
In addition, Lawrence also found two stone piers on both sides of the entrance of the platform. According to the uneven fracture marks on the upper side, some hieroglyphs remained on the side of the stone piers and his occult knowledge about the ancient Nile civilization. . He thinks this is probably the golden obsidian guard that comes standard with some extraordinary pyramids.
In the ancient Nile civilization, the pyramids could not be built with sufficient resources. At that time, the pyramid was regarded as the supreme symbol, and only the ancient Nile monarch who was regarded as the **** of the world or the true **** could build such an important building. In other words, every pyramid was built with the permission of the gods and under the gaze of the gods.
Correspondingly, these pyramids will be blessed by the gods after they are built. On the one hand, these divine powers will activate the artificial magic gathering points in the pyramid, making the pyramid play a powerful effect. On the other hand, it will activate a series of magic puppets and statues outside these core areas, allowing them to serve as the permanent guards of the pyramids. This was naturally regarded by people at the time as a blessing from gods to mankind.
The number of puppets in a pyramid is not a fixed number, but one thing is confirmed, that is, there will be and only a pair of golden obsidian jackal puppets with the least hero level as guards in the gates of these artificial magic gathering points. As the last line of defense of the pyramid and the manifestation of the glory of the gods.
It now appears that those golden obsidian guards blessed by the gods still retain some mixed and divine power even after the gods die, and cannot modify the internal preset content and cannot be corrupted. As a result, the members of Scarlet Sky could only completely destroy them when they entered here.
This is a good thing for Lawrence, because there are not only two of these golden obsidian guards at a time, but each one is at least heroic. It is impossible for an official warlock-level warlock to win a battle with them anyway.
Of course, this statement is only a self-comfort for Lawrence. The real situation is that they are good at coordinating battles, with extremely high magic resistance and extremely high physical defense capabilities. When his own physical attack ability is extremely strong and will release a lot of magical top magic puppets, his ability to escape from birth smoothly is considered to be the protagonist's aura to the extreme.
Thanks to the work done by Scarlet Sky before, Lawrence does not need to face such a difficult problem now. And after entering the door, he didn't notice any remaining things that might be dangerous.
To say something special, he just felt that after entering this room, the whole person seemed a lot more energetic, and the white shadow in his mind jumped. The exhaustion caused by running around was wiped out.
"Is it possible that the higher the concentration of magic power can make people become more energetic?" Lawrence seemed a little confused, because he had been to the magic tower of the Huguang City Magic Association before, and the concentration of magic power there was also not low, but Lawrence was nothing there. feel. "It's still necessary to have this kind of old magic power."
Fortunately, these are some minor details. What Lawrence needs to do now is to understand what Scarlet Sky did in this room before, so that the Scarlet Sky members who are also used to the wind and rain can think they are making one. Terrible taboo.
At the beginning, Lawrence wanted to use his golden finger-like [identification technique] to identify it, but this time he ran into a nail. Because identification can only identify a single item, it cannot identify what a system is all about.
For example, the several appraisals he just released easily identified a rune for condensing magic power, a rune for purifying magic power, and an energy conversion system. But it is impossible to identify what this set of things is together.
But this does not mean that Lawrence can't do anything, because he has obtained a lot of occult knowledge before and after using identification techniques to identify the role of some key nodes. He was able to infer from this large number of facilities what the people in Scarlet Sky were doing here.
"Come out!" Lawrence opened the space pocket and shouted to the book charm inside. "There is no danger here. I need you to check some things around me now."
"No problem, my master." Shumei said floating out of the space bag, but after only half of its body was exposed, the light on its body dimmed suddenly, and then it was as weak as a deflated balloon. Fell back into the space bag.
"What's the matter?" At this time, Lawrence didn't care about studying the things in front of him. He immediately put his hand into the space bag and prepared to take out the book that Shumei now possessed for inspection. But before his hand touched the cover of the book, Shu Mei's suddenly weakened voice came from the space bag.
"Let me stay here for a while." Shumei exposed her body from the attached book and looked at Lawrence. Lawrence found that the light on her body had recovered again. "Master, you are really great, you can be as usual in this kind of place."
"What greatness, what is this place, can you make it clear?" Lawrence, who was confused, found that Shumei seemed to have some understanding of the current situation, so he asked a little hastily. "I feel nothing but energy."
"This is your greatness, my master." Shu Mei did not forget to compliment Lawrence before speaking at this time. "Only a great person like you can act as usual in this place full of unfriendly divine power, and may be immersed in divine power at all times."
"Divine power dip?" Lawrence showed a look of sudden realization. "This is the legendary divine power dip! No wonder I didn't see many defense facilities along the way. It turns out that the killer is hidden here."
Divine power dip is a way to transform any non-divine creature through divine power. For believers of these divine power sources, this kind of dip is an extremely high-end baptism ritual that can make They are closer to their gods.
But for other people, this is not the case. This kind of infestation often causes them to have various problems, especially the divine power of certain evil divine creatures will seriously pollute contacts, kill them or turn them into Some terrible monsters.
The divine power of non-evil gods will also have some problems, such as forcibly reversing beliefs, or having a serious reaction with those people’s beliefs, causing some irreversible harm to those people.
Just as Lawrence had to become a formal transcendent when he accepted the blessings of the Agricultural Church and the Church of the Suffering God before, in order to be able to resist the little bit of inadvertently leaked out during the blessing process. Divine power, to avoid damage caused by the incidental divine power.
And the concentration of divine power in this place is several orders of magnitude higher than the divine power accidentally leaked during the blessing process, and at the same time it is more aggressive and concealed after some changes. Faced with such a trap of divine power infiltration, no one can be spared except for transcendents of the master level or above or creatures with divine nature.
