Silver Sands Desert.

The magic circle was in turmoil, and the elemental world was naturally not peaceful either. A sandstorm was quickly forming.

Fortunately, the giant tempered silver sand shield is strong enough to temporarily keep the dust storm out.

Inside the giant shield, Rosen, Adela, and Nellie worked together to quickly dig a passage leading deep into the earth.

The saints of life can certainly do this, but their strength is too weak.

The digging is slow and the excavation is small, which is far inferior to the three true gods who have high-power energy source support.

'Huahuahua~~~'

Under Rosen's giant transformation spell, the silver sand retreated on both sides like a tide, while Adela and Nellie held the ghost resonance wands, responsible for further strengthening and reinforcing the initially formed underground passage.

Although the two women could not cast super-giant spells, they had inexhaustible power, a fast casting speed, and high work efficiency, and they could barely keep up with Rosen.

Belldandi wanted to help, but she was only proficient in combat spells and not in digging holes, so she could only watch.

With the joint efforts of the three, the temporary camp sank deep into the earth at an extremely fast speed.

After about five minutes, the depth exceeded one thousand meters, and the surrounding magic ring became much stronger.

Although one can still feel the waves brought by the storm, the magnitude is much smaller than that on the ground.

Rosen asked, "Is it almost done?"

Adela shook her head. "This depth is enough to deal with ordinary storms, but it's a bit of a stretch to deal with super storms. It won't be hard work anyway, so why not dig deeper all at once?"

That's true.

Rosen stepped up his efforts and dug deep.

The efficiency of the super giant spell was so high that if you weren't paying attention, you would have dug down a full kilometer deep.

At this depth, the Ring has become very strong, enough to withstand a Ring storm of any intensity.

But Rosen was so excited about digging that he didn't care about anything else and just kept digging deeper.

As we were digging, we suddenly discovered that the soil layer was wrong.

"Hey~ Those white branches are not right, they are piles of bones!"

Adela quickly reinforced the inner wall of the underground passage: "Your Majesty, this depth is safe enough."

As she spoke, she squatted down and carefully examined the bones dug out by Rosen, and soon came to a preliminary conclusion.

"Judging from the degree of petrification of the bones, they must have been buried for at least five thousand years. No, there are traces of burns on the surface of these bones. It seems that they were burned at extremely high temperatures before they died."

Rosen was also observing, and he came to the same conclusion as Adela.

But he obtained more accurate data based on the decay of various radioactive isotopes in the bones.

"The burial time was at least more than 11,000 years. It was indeed burned at high temperatures before it was alive. The burning temperature is estimated to be between 1,800 and 2,500 degrees, but the burning time was not long."

Nellie immediately said, "Legend has it that the Silver Sand Plains is an ancient battlefield from a lost plane, and the silver sand on the plains is the product of destructive high-energy spells."

"Could this be a corpse from the battlefield?"

"Very likely!"

Rosen carefully sensed the situation on the ground and found that the waves of the magic ring on the ground had reached a very terrifying intensity.

If you go to the ground at this time, your void vision will be blinded and your soul will suffer a great shock.

An ordinary person would probably have a soul collapse in less than half a minute, and an average legendary strong man might not be able to last more than half an hour.

Rosen relied on the magic ring shield to resist, but his soul was huge, and the bigger the tree, the more wind it attracted, so he was naturally hit hard.

This will result in the energy consumption of the Ring Shield being very high, estimated to be more than 500,000 Rosens per second.

Only a fool would go against the forces of nature when there is a safe place to hide.

But the underground was narrow and dark, and it was very boring to just wait there.

Rosen suggested, "I see there are a lot of bones here. We're just sitting here anyway, why don't we do some archaeological research together? Maybe we can dig up some treasures."

This suggestion was immediately agreed by everyone.

They came to the Lost Plane to explore and search for treasures, so they could find treasures anywhere. So the 40 people were divided into 8 groups of five, each group went in one direction, and started digging holes for archaeological research.

At the beginning, everyone was digging happily and didn't take it seriously, but as they dug, the atmosphere gradually became solemn.

“There are so many bones!”

"Based on what we have dug out, there are at least 300,000 people buried here!"

"What kind of ancient battlefield could be so tragic?"

In the First World War, more than 300,000 people were killed in intensive fighting, which is an extremely terrifying war spirit in the minds of modern mortals.

One hundred thousand people, without any resistance, lined up and hacked at with knives, would take a very long time.

Rosen was also very surprised.

"The remains include men and women, old and young. They don't look like warriors, but more like a gathering of civilians."

"It seems that they were driven together by someone, and then suffered a very violent and sudden high-energy attack, so that everyone died almost at the same time."

A terrible word popped up in everyone's mind.

"massacre!"

“It’s still a massacre of civilians!”

In addition to being shocked, everyone had more doubts in their hearts.

Who were the perpetrators? Why?

How many people were massacred?

With these questions in mind, everyone began to dig seriously, and the digging became more detailed and in-depth.

They kept digging and digging, resting when they were tired, and waited until the magic ring storm outside completely subsided. Everyone also roughly restored the situation of the ancient massacre site.

The total number of corpses exceeds 1.2 million!

There were no other fragments to refer to except the bones.

There were no pieces of clothing, precious metal fragments, or even remnants of blood and flesh. It seemed as if someone had cleaned it up intentionally.

As a result, the doubts were not eliminated but became even more intense.

"Adela, do you feel it? There is a faint resonance of power ahead."

It is a unique power resonance between high-energy elemental bodies.

It is very subtle. One must be a great god, preferably with a strength of level 18, and be able to calm down and perceive it carefully to experience it.

Therefore, among the three women with divine bodies, only Adela could have sensed it.

Adela obviously didn't notice.

She walked over to Rosen and closed her eyes to take it all in.

Rosen also cooperated and stopped casting spells to reduce the interference to her.

About three minutes later, Adela whispered, "It's very, very faint, almost like an illusion. If you're not careful, you'll easily overlook it."

Rosen's strength has been optimized to legendary 19, and with Lai Fu's assistance, his perception is much sharper than Adela's. At this time, he continues to dig forward in the direction of the source of the power resonance.

As the excavation continued, the resonance of the divine body gradually became stronger.

"It's very obvious now," said Adela.

After a while, Belldandy and even Nellie felt it too.

The four gods with divine bodies began to communicate using secret soul language.

“Could the body of the god buried deep underground be the true god from ancient times?”

"I can feel that the other party is still alive. The question is, if he is still alive, why doesn't he come out to rebuild the lost ancient civilization?"

"Could it be that it is seriously injured? Or is it in hibernation?"

"There is a problem. We are not sure how powerful this true god is. We are also not sure whether he is a good person or a bad person. Will there be any accidents if we come into contact with him rashly?"

Nellie said the last word.

Her words made sense, so Rosen stopped digging.

He began to analyze it carefully.

"This true god is most likely in hibernation."

"From current knowledge, the power of a true god is extremely dependent on the strength of the magic ring of the environment. The strength of the magic ring is less than eleven rings now, so the power that this true god can stably exist with is probably around the eleventh ring."

In other words, even if the power is stronger than theirs, it is still very limited.

Belldandy said, "Why don't we continue digging? If he has no ill intentions, we can ask him about the source of these millions of skeletons."

Adela also agreed to continue digging: "We must dig, but we must dig with caution. Your Majesty, how about summoning the hunter?"

Rosen thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "The Hunter is not safe. If this guy is a true god from the ancient civilization, he might be able to snatch our Hunter."

"How about this, you guys dig, and I'll stand beside you with the Annihilation Spear. If the situation goes wrong, I will defeat him in the first place."

Nellie nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty's thoughts are as fast as lightning. This is the safest way."

Adela and Belldandy had no objections either.

So, Adela and Nellie were responsible for digging, while Rosen and Belldandy were responsible for dealing with unexpected situations.

Excavation work continues.

As the distance gets closer, the resonance between the divine bodies becomes stronger and stronger.

Just when everyone's minds were tense to the extreme, a deep purple starlight suddenly appeared in the soil in front of them.

Adela immediately stopped digging, and after carefully examining the source of the light, she could not help but let out a low cry.

"It seems to be a hunter. But it seems incomplete. There are many cracks on the surface. It seems to be the remains of a hunter."

Rosen immediately blessed everyone with the Super Giant Soul Sigh Wall. At the same time, he took off his high-energy krypton gold cloak and greatly strengthened it with the super giant tempering spell.

"Everyone hide behind the cloak, and keep digging."

After hiding, everyone continued digging carefully.

The soil fell down with a rustling sound, and the full appearance of the hunter's remains gradually revealed.

"It is indeed the remains of a hunter. The remains are hidden deep under the bones. Judging from its appearance, it should be in guard mode."

In Guardian Mode, the Hunter's hands and feet transform into shields that wrap around his torso.

"If I'm not mistaken, this true god from ancient times should be hiding inside the hunter's torso."

Adela took a deep breath and continued digging.

About three minutes later, the remains of the hunter in guardian mode were revealed intact.

It has a curled shape and its surface is covered with spider-web-like cracks. Most of the cracks are very thin, but some are so thick that you can insert a finger.

Judging from the shape of the cracks, it must have been hit by an extremely powerful force before it died, so much so that it was completely destroyed in one blow.

Belldandy thrust his high-energy kryptonian sword into a thick crack, tried to pry it open, and then shook his head.

“Although the cracks are very large, they are not transparent, and the material is very hard and cannot be broken.”

Rosen thought for a moment and said, "I'll try using the Annihilation Spear."

He channeled his strength into the spear, condensing a strand of annihilation power as thin as a hair, and then used it as an annihilation saw to cut the remains of the Lawbreaker bit by bit.

"Sizzle~Sizzle~"

The annihilation force hit the wreckage of the hunter, sparking blinding electric arcs that made Rosen feel like he was doing electric welding.

The good news is that the annihilation force can destroy the wreckage quite efficiently.

After some cutting, a circular hole with a diameter of more than one meter was cut in the hunter's torso.

After opening the round mouth, there is a pitch-black round hole and nothing can be seen inside the hole.

"Buzz~"

Nellie cast a ring of light, illuminating the situation inside the cave.

Rosen leaned over to take a look and immediately exclaimed: "Tsk~ how miserable!"
