Chapter 209: Red King's Relics
Chapter 209: Red King's Relics
After cleaning the sand off their bodies, everyone gathered together.
Ying speculated that the special power seen in the village guard was the legacy of the Grass God. Even though he was now imprisoned, his remaining power was still protecting every citizen.
"Compared to the special situation of the people guarding the village, we should be more concerned about the things in front of us, such as what is the situation of this temple?"
Hines pointed to the huge triangular portal not far ahead and drew everyone's attention over there.
Elhaisen's extensive knowledge came in handy once again. Based on the symbols carved on the door, he quickly determined that this was a building from the Red King period.
"...This might have been a sunken underground palace in ancient times."
Elhaisen stroked the giant door, feeling the strong historical atmosphere on it.
Compared to Heisen's scholarly thinking, Paimon was more concerned about whether there were any cultural relics in the palace.
"A palace from the time of the Red King! How many antiques must be in here! Ying, we're going to be rich!"
Ying covered Paimeng's mouth with embarrassment. Let's not talk about whether there are antiques here. Even if there are, our clerk will take them back to Xumi for research.
Before Ying could say anything, she heard a cold snort from behind.
"Humph, how can you covet the Red King's miracle?"
Rahman walked straight past Ying and Paimon and headed towards the temple entrance.
"You who broke your promise, you are lucky to be alive..."
Hines stopped Rahman and glanced at Senor while speaking.
"...No, perhaps the greatest sorrow is that you are still alive."
Senor also came forward in a very cooperative manner, and pressed the Red Sand Staff against Rahman's jaw.
"Choose a way to die."
......
"I'm sorry, Sines, but Seno is so handsome!"
"I don't care if you're Seno or not! (picks up the toilet paper on the bedside)"
"Brother, calm down. Even if you have to look at Rahman, please let Seno go."
"Um, Rahman, it's a bit difficult, right?"
......
Dixia on the side was also eager to try, but she knew that if they didn't want to give up the rest of the village defenders, they had to keep this guy alive.
Apparently Rahman knew this too, and he raised his hands to show that he was no threat.
"No, now is not the time to argue. We are waiting for the noble king to lead us to the temple..."
The desert people's faith in the Red King was fully realized at this moment. If Hines and Seno had not stopped him, Rahman would have run in long ago.
Heisen supported his chin with one hand.
"What a coincidence, I want to go in and have a look too."
As things are developing now, Paimon, Ying, Heisen, and Rahman all plan to go deeper into the ruins. The only ones who have not expressed their opinions are Hines, Egolia, Dishia, and Senor.
Seno will keep a close eye on his prey, that is, Rahman, and naturally he also plans to enter the ruins. As a desert man, Dishiya actually also wants to see the miracle of the Red King.
So now the only ones with unclear attitudes are Sines and Egolia.
Hines looked at everyone and smiled casually.
"Since we're here, wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't go in and see for ourselves?"
Egolia didn't have much impression of the Red King, so she had no objection to exploring the ruins, especially since the Red King's ruins might contain records of forbidden knowledge.
She stayed in Xumi for so long. At first, she just wanted to save the little girl named Cole, but she didn't expect that this purpose would involve the disease of the World Tree and even the doctor's outrageous plan to create a god.
Of course she could just leave, but she didn't want to do that. If possible, she also wanted to contribute her own efforts to saving Xumi.
The village defender became weak after the burst of power, so Isaac stayed outside to take care of him and did not participate in the exploration of the ruins.
After entering the ruins, almost everyone was stunned.
In their imagination, the remains of the Red King should be covered with yellow sand and full of technology.
But in fact, the walls of the ruins are covered with vines, and the tops of the towering trees cannot be seen at a glance, as if they have merged with the ruins.
Sines and Egolia observed the low vegetation around them and watered them.
Sneez squatted on the ground and picked up the blades of grass, feeling the divine power remaining on them.
"Egolia, do you think the Red King's divine power can really protect these plants from growing so lushly in the desert?"
In Egolia's opinion, Hines' question was a little outrageous. She looked at Hines in confusion.
"The divine power flowing here is obviously from the tree... grass god, okay."
Hines clapped his hands and stood up, looking at Rahman who said nothing,
"Yes, why are the remains of the Red King filled with the power of the Grass God?"
Eugolia followed Hines's gaze and looked at Rahman, only then did she realize that Hines was not asking her for the answer at all, he was just deliberately angering Rahman.
After understanding Hines' intention, Egolia said no more and stood quietly beside Hines, just as Hines had stood beside her in the past.
Elhaisen looked at Egolia and Hines suspiciously. In his opinion, these two old guys should know some stories about the Red King.
But now, they don't seem to want to say more.
Rahman was indifferent to Shines's sarcasm and even chose to ignore the lush vegetation in the ruins.
"Humph, I don't have the Eye of God, you can say whatever you want."
"Then you may not only not have the Eye of God, but you may even be blind."
Dixia felt relieved when she saw Xines scolding Rahman, but she was also very curious about the source of the divine power in the ruins.
"We don't have any clues right now, so let's go deeper."
The exploration of the ruins was very boring, and Paimon was completely listless.
"Ying, do you think King Chi is a pauper? Why haven't we seen any valuable treasures after walking for such a long time?"
Rahman glared at the man when he heard such an overbearing statement.
"Boy, pay attention..."
"What should I pay attention to?"
Hines casually put his hand on Rahman's shoulder, and the huge force even made Rahman think his shoulder was going to break.
"Even if you threaten me, I will not allow anyone to disrespect Lord Chi Wang!"
Tsk, fanatics are so boring.
Hinesh, who didn't get to see Rahman's facial changes, pushed him in boredom.
Paimon hid beside Ying. Although she realized that she had said something wrong, she still refused to accept it.
"What I said is also true. Obviously there is nothing..."
As she spoke, she stuck out her tongue at Rahman.
Rahman rubbed his sore shoulder and selectively ignored Paimon's speech.
Heisen, who was leading the way in front of the decryptor, suddenly stopped.
"Everyone, it looks like we've reached the finish line."
