Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 355: Mysterious building

"What the **** is this?" Looking at the disappearing spider remains, Nora showed an expression of disbelief. Because the shapes of the surrounding plants were very strange just now, Nara and Lawrence both maintained the highest vigilance in investigating the surroundings, but they did not find these ambushing spiders at all.

"It's still the force of nature." Lawrence said in disbelief after inspecting the spider remains. "But I don’t think they are like natural products at all. I have talked with the extraordinary people of the agricultural church before. They told me that natural forces in the spiritual world either attack randomly like wild animals, or just Lazily never attack. They can't do an organized attack like this."

"In other words, there should be a power behind these spiders. A power we don't know." At this point, Nora's face suddenly wrinkled. "But we came here at random today, how could someone? Ambush us. Even the gods of the general divine power level want to find our traces through prophecy, and I will feel it."

"What about the higher-level gods?" Lawrence asked. "For example, if a **** with a powerful divine power level wants to calculate us, it shouldn't be discovered by us."

"Are you stupid?" Nora looked at Lawrence helplessly. "There are only those sires with powerful divine power. But no matter who they are, they have no enemies with us, and there is no need to come and attack us. More importantly, if these great beings want to kill us, there is no need to go around so much. A circle, as long as a finger is gently extended, we can be completely crushed. There is no need to be as troublesome as it is now."

"You are right." After speaking, Lawrence said, looking at some **** little dolls. "So, this may not be because someone wants to attack us, but because the place we are going to has some kind of defense. And these spiders are part of the defense system."

"That should be it." Nora nodded and looked forward. The path under their feet, which was full of grass and moss just now, has now changed and turned into a road made of golden slabs. And at the end of the road, a building painted with colorful patterns and decorated with a lot of gold and silver stands in a small valley.

Everything in that valley is golden, from the ground to the plants, from the plants to the stones. And these golden everything looked so abnormal compared to the dark green or even black surrounding the valley. It's as if someone dug up a piece of ground and replaced it with another piece of ground that was completely different.

When they came to the intersection of light and darkness, Lawrence and Nora looked at each other, then took a deep breath and stepped forward. Just as they had felt before, there was nothing dangerous in it. Instead, it gave people a feeling of warming the whole body as if the sun was shining on them.

But this did not make Lawrence and the others feel relaxed, and even increased their vigilance. Because the light in the darkness in the spiritual world may not be the real light, but some kind of dangerous trap. It's like the light on the anglerfish's head that is used to attract the little fishes to throw themselves into the net.

But until they walked to the front of the building, everything was normal, there were no traps, no enemies, not even the spiders that I saw at the beginning that I didn't know where to crawl out. It's like walking through the wilderness and entering a church of righteousness under normal circumstances.

Yes, after approaching, Lawrence found that the building in front of him was a religious building full of elf style. And completely different from the building in the real space outside, this building is mostly complete. Although there is also no holy emblem of the gods, various carvings can be said to be complete.

Most importantly, if there is no problem with the occult knowledge in Lawrence's mind. This building presents a standard church style unique to a forest. In other words, it does not have a brick or metal wall like a human church, but an open building. Only various plants are used around to divide the sanctuary of the gods.

"This sculpture-it's not right." After coming to the outside of the building, Lawrence and the others did not rush in first, but looked at the sculpture on the outer wall of the building and tried to get more information. But at the first sight of these wall reliefs, Lawrence and the others realized the weirdness of this church.

Normal religious occasions for elves, whether it is a church, a temple or an altar. Various patterns are carved in all places. Just like a traveler who once went to the elves forest said, those elves are not even willing to let go of any area larger than their palms, leaving it to stay there unadorned and bare.

Under normal circumstances, the elves will carve something about nature's animals and plants, or related to their own production and life. But now the carvings on the exterior wall of this building are obviously off the track.

The reliefs on the wall of this building are indeed related to nature and the production and life of the elves themselves. However, the above style is obviously much bolder than the normal elf style. It does not seem to be in line with the asceticism of the elves, but Lawrence's previous life saw the decoration of the exterior wall of the Indian Khajuraho Temple from the Internet.

"This is not elf at all." When she saw something on the wall, Nora blocked her eyes with a very ladylike hand, and then opened her emerald green eyes and looked at the wall through the gap between her fingertips. everything of. "At least it doesn't resemble the elves in my mind at all, but a bit, but rather dark elves."

"To be precise, this is a style between dark elves and elves." Lawrence carefully inspected this not too big building with the eyes of a scholar, and said, because the entire building area is also It's the size of a basketball court, so it didn't take long to see all the sculptures on the outer wall of the building.

"Are you talking about the interim period?" Nara turned around and said, "If this is the case, then we have indeed found something remarkable now."

According to the content of occult knowledge, dark elves, or drow elves, were just a branch of ordinary elves before, they just had black skins. But as their guardian **** Erosineros began to become evil ~ lightnovelpub.net~ these elves also slowly fell, and then were banished to the dark realm by the main elven god.

But before the fall, these dark elves loved nature and life under the sun just like other elves. It’s a pity that when the angry elven lord **** banished them into the ground, they also destroyed most of their traces on the ground. For a long time, other elves also obeyed the oracle and tried to destroy their own black The traces left by the skin compatriots.

And those dark elves who entered the ground also destroyed everything that represented their past, to show a break with the past. The direct consequence of this is that, except for a few items that were kept as trophies in various elven temples, there is basically nothing left of that era on the ground.

Therefore, this is probably the trace left by the drow at that time, and it is an extremely precious treasure no matter from which point of view. This also made Lawrence more interested in the things placed in this building.

After all, building such a building in the spirit world is definitely not like an ordinary temple for people to worship, because even a creature like the dark elves that is inherently more powerful than humans can’t achieve that everyone is extraordinary and can enter the spirit. World. Coupled with the results of the previous divination, Lawrence can infer that this building actually exists to store something.
