Chapter 43: Quickly Transmigrate! Strategies for the Viking Son of Fortune (Twenty-Four)
"Ryan! Go!"
Feng Ziang shouted loudly, trying to awaken Ryan's mind.
However, Ryan was still immersed in his own world and turned a deaf ear to Feng Ziang's calls.
"Don't worry about him, let's go!" Zeus pulled Feng Ziang and continued running towards the exit.
Just as they were about to run to the exit, a huge rock fell from the sky and hit Ryan hard...
"Ryan!" Feng Ziang exclaimed, stopped and wanted to go back to save Ryan.
"It's too late, let's go out first!" Zeus held Feng Ziang tightly, not letting him go back to take risks.
Feng Zi struggled, tears blurring his eyes. At this moment, he felt a warm glow emanating from the conch pendant in his hand, and a powerful force surged through his body.
"This is..."
Feng Ziang looked at the conch pendant in his hand in astonishment, and some images suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Follow me!" Feng Ziang pulled Zeus and ran towards the depths of the temple...
Dust flew, boulders roared, and the temple was on the verge of collapse. Feng Ziang rushed towards Ron regardless of everything, and Zeus followed closely behind with mixed feelings.
"Ryan!"
Feng Ziang shouted loudly, his voice full of anxiety and worry. Under the shadow of the boulder, Ryan groaned in pain, one of his legs was pinned down and he couldn't move.
"We have to get him out!"
Feng Ziang started moving the boulder while he was talking. Zeus also joined in, and the two of them worked together and finally moved the boulder a little.
"quick!"
Zeus yelled, and Ron gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and crawled out from under the boulder.
“Ahem…”
Ryan was covered in dust and still in shock. Looking at Feng Ziang and Zeus in front of him, he lowered his head in shame.
"I'm sorry..." Ryan's voice was low and hoarse, "I was too greedy and almost hurt you..."
Feng Ziang shook his head and said softly, "I'm glad you're alright. Let's leave here first."
The collapse of the temple seemed to have stopped, but the artifact was still nowhere to be seen. Feng Ziang looked around, and his eyes finally fell on a stone door deep in the temple.
"Maybe the answer is there." Feng Ziang pointed at the stone gate with a firm look in his eyes.
Zeus nodded in agreement. Ryan struggled to stand up, looked at Feng Ziang with a complicated look, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "I'll go with you too. I want to make up for my mistake."
Feng Ziang did not refuse, and the three of them walked towards the mysterious stone door together. The heavy stone door slowly opened, and a deep passage leading to the underground appeared in front of them.
"Be careful."
Zeus reminded them and took the lead in entering the passage. Feng Ziang and Ryan followed closely behind. The torches on both sides of the passage lit up automatically, illuminating the road ahead.
After walking through the long passage, the view suddenly opened up and a huge underground space appeared before them. However, before they could take a closer look, a cold voice came from the darkness:
"Entering the holy land without permission is an unforgivable crime!"
At the end of the dark passage, there was no trace of a divine weapon, but a maze-like underground palace. The flickering firelight illuminated the ancient runes on the walls, and an eerie tranquility permeated the air.
"Be careful."
Zeus reminded him in a low voice, and he drew out the short axe at his waist and looked around vigilantly. Feng Ziang and Ryan followed closely behind him, not daring to relax at all.
"Entering the holy land without permission is an unforgivable crime!"
A cold voice suddenly echoed in the empty palace, carrying with it an unquestionable majesty.
A woman in a black robe slowly walked out of the shadows. She wore a silver crown that symbolized the goddess of jealousy, and her pale face was filled with a sinister aura. "You greedy mortals, who want to get your hands on the power of God, will pay the price!"
"Who are you?" Feng Ziang asked vigilantly.
"I am a priestess of the Goddess of Jealousy," the woman said with a cold smile, "You can call me... Erica."
"Priest Erica," Zeus stepped forward and tried to communicate, "We mean no offense, we are just looking for--"
"shut up!"
Erica interrupted him with a sharp voice, "You despicable thieves, don't try to deceive me! There is no good thing about men."
Before she finished speaking, the staff in Erica's hand shone brightly, and the entire palace began to shake violently. Feng Ziang only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he came to his senses, he found himself in a strange place.
"Zeus?"
He called out tentatively, but no one answered. At this moment, he saw a familiar figure not far away, with his back to him, seemingly talking to someone.
"Don't worry, as long as you help me get the artifact, I promise to make you the most powerful warrior in this land, even surpassing your ancestors!" The voice was low and full of temptation, and Feng Ziang's heart sank suddenly.
"Zeus, is that really you?"
Feng Ziang muttered to himself in disbelief. He walked slowly closer, wanting to see the man's true face. However, when he saw the man's face clearly, he was struck by lightning and froze in place.
"Why is it you..."
Feng Ziang's voice trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief and deep despair.
At the same time, Zeus also fell into a carefully woven illusion. Of course, they did not understand that this was the influence of the artifact, the Moon of Honesty. He saw Feng Ziang, but at this time he was wearing gorgeous clothes, standing proudly next to a strange man with a cold smile on his face.
"You're right, this fool is no longer of any use, it's time to get rid of him." Feng Ziang's voice was cold and ruthless, like a sharp knife piercing Zeus' heart.
Zeus clenched his fists, veins popping out. He didn't want to believe this was true, but he couldn't deny what he saw. At this moment, he saw the dagger in Feng Ziang's hand flashing with cold light, slowly rising and pointing at his heart...
"Why is it you..."
Feng Ziang's voice trembled, his eyes were filled with disbelief and deep despair. The "Zeus" in the illusion turned around, revealing a face that looked exactly like Zeus, but with cold eyes and no emotion.
A cruel smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out to touch Feng Ziang's cheek, his tone gentle but creepy: "Ziang, isn't it good to be with me? I can give you everything, power, wealth, and..."
"shut up!"
Feng Ziang suddenly waved his hand away and stepped back, his eyes filled with disgust and anger, "You are not him, and you will never be him!"
At the same time, in another illusion, Zeus closed his eyes in pain. Feng Ziang's words were like sharp blades, ruthlessly tearing his heart.
But there was always a voice in his heart shouting: No, this is not true! My brother would not do this to me, I believe him!
He suddenly opened his eyes, and the scene before him began to distort, break, and finally disappear. He saw the real Feng Ziang, who was looking at him in horror, but his eyes were full of worry and concern.
