Chapter 862 Mountain Temple
Zhou Wen directly ordered Tyrant Behemoth to help the transport team deliver their trucks and cargo to the other side of the broken road.
In front of Tyrant Behemoth, the truck was like a toy and could be picked up with one hand.
Soon, all trucks, cargo and people were moved to the other side of the broken road.
"I haven't asked for your name yet?" the officer said to Zhou Wen.
"Zhou Wen," Zhou Wen replied, then said to the officer, "Hurry up and leave. There's more than just that one extra-dimensional creature here. There are even more terrifying ones. If we're late, we'll be in danger."
The officer saluted Zhou Wen and without further ado, immediately ordered all the soldiers to get on the trucks and leave with the goods.
"Captain Jin, I didn't expect that Tyrant Behemoth is actually the companion pet of someone from our East District, and it belongs to such a young student. That Zhou Wen is really amazing. Not only is his companion pet amazing, but he is also amazing. He killed such a terrifying extra-dimensional creature with just one sword. If all our human students are as powerful as him, what will we be afraid of extra-dimensional creatures in the future?" The soldier next to him said to the officer excitedly.
Jin Shihao shook his head and smiled bitterly, "People like this might only appear once in a billion people. It's impossible for them to protect all of humanity. We soldiers are just as important. So we must strive to become stronger. Even if we can't reach their level, we can still protect our compatriots who are weaker than us."
"That being said, I'm afraid we will never be able to possess that kind of power in our lifetime," the soldier sighed.
Jin Shihao cursed, "If everyone thinks like you, we humans will be doomed. Just because we can't do it now doesn't mean we won't be able to do it in the future. Could humans in ancient times imagine that one day everyone would have a mobile phone? Would people in peacetime imagine that everyone would be able to fight with a gun? People like Zhou Wen are pioneers of the times. One day, pioneers like them will bring powerful companion pets, vitality techniques, and vitality skills to everyone. Only then will humans truly change the world. We must also work hard to become stronger. If one day such an era really comes and we don't even have the ability to control those powers, then we will be truly doomed."
"Captain, I understand what you mean. By standing on the shoulders of giants, we can see farther. But seeing it with my own eyes, it's still too shocking. He is such a young man, yet he possesses such power. Is the gap in human talent so huge?" the soldier sighed.
Zhou Wen kept scanning the woods below. The collapse of the mountain road was definitely not something that the dimensional creature just now could do. There must be a stronger dimensional creature nearby.
But he scanned the woods again and again and found nothing else.
With a thought, Zhou Wen put on the invisibility cloak, wrapped Ya'er in the cloak, and then went in the direction where the centipede monster came.
The mountains and forests were dense and dark under the moonlight. Zhou Wen did not enter the forest for fear of something happening, so he flew directly over the trees.
With an invisibility cloak and an earth beast ready to fight at any time, Zhou Wen's ability to escape is already extremely good. Coupled with the ability of listening, he can still escape even if he cannot win.
There was nothing found along the way, but fortunately the smell emitted by the centipede monster was still there. Zhou Wen followed the smell and turned a hill, and unexpectedly made a discovery.
There is a small hill over there, only two or three hundred meters high, but quite steep. On the top of the hill, there is a building that looks like a land temple.
"There is a land temple in this kind of place?" Zhou Wen was a little surprised. He looked at the hill and did not find any stone steps leading up the mountain.
"Strange, there are no stone steps. How did the ancients build it?" Zhou Wen looked at the land temple carefully and found that there was actually incense coming out from inside.
There is a wooden plaque hanging above the door lintel of the small temple, with three words "Mountain God Temple" engraved on it.
"It turns out it's not a land god temple, but a mountain god temple." Zhou Wen frowned slightly.
If it is a land temple, you don't have to worry too much, because the land temples in the eastern district are of similar nature and generally there won't be too much danger, and you might even be able to get some benefits.
But mountain god temples are different. Mountain god temples are divided into two types: righteous gods and evil gods. Mountain god temples of righteous gods are similar to land god temples and are not very dangerous.
But it’s hard to say about the evil god’s mountain temple.
Some so-called mountain gods are actually monsters that have become spirits in the mountains. Some monsters are good, some are bad, and their temperaments are completely different. Because of their magical powers, humans worship them as mountain gods.
However, these mountain gods may not necessarily protect humans. In fact, many mountain gods are only worshipped because they have killed humans on a large scale and made humans afraid.
Although the mountain god temple on this small hill is not big, it is built quite exquisitely. It is made of pure wood and has incense wafting out from inside. Because there are only three words "Mountain God Temple" written on it, Zhou Wen has no idea what the mountain god enshrined inside looks like.
"That centipede monster should have come out of the mountain god temple. It seems that the mountain god here is most likely an evil god. The collapsed mountain road is probably related to this mountain god." Zhou Wen thought to himself.
Zhou Wen concentrated his Di Ting power on the mountain temple, wanting to know what was enshrined inside the mountain temple.
Because the mountain temple was shrouded in a mysterious power, Zhou Wen couldn't hear clearly what was happening inside before. Now that he was listening with all his strength, the scene inside the mountain temple gradually emerged in his mind.
The temple is quite simple. There is an altar with something being offered on it. There is an incense stick in front of the thing, and there are incense sticks inserted in the incense sticks. There are also candles on both sides. No one knows who lit the incense sticks and candles.
When Zhou Wen saw clearly what was enshrined in the temple, his expression turned a little strange.
"It's indeed a mountain temple dedicated to an evil god. I've seen temples dedicated to snake fairies, fox fairies, and yellow fairies, but this is the first time I've seen one dedicated to a toad." Zhou Wen looked at the mountain god in the temple and couldn't help but feel curious.
The deity enshrined in the mountain temple looks like a toad. The fat statue lies on the table with its eyes closed, seemingly enjoying itself.
Its entire body was like bronze, with many spots on it, and it looked ugly and unsightly. If it were Zhou Wen, he would definitely not worship such a mountain god.
But after Zhou Wen looked at it carefully for a while, he felt something was wrong.
It looks like a toad lying there, but if you look closely, you will find that this guy is somewhat different from a toad.
When Zhou Wen was observing it carefully, he saw it actually opened its eyes and looked towards Zhou Wen.
