Chapter 80: The Slaughterhouse with a Mountain of Corpses and the Unknown Fear
Xi Xinbei trembled all over when he heard this, and could only hold back and withdraw his hand.
"We don't know how these invisible creatures crawled into our bodies. We must first use our senses to establish a protective circle."
"Um."
At this time, Honglian once again issued a danger warning: [There is a large group of unidentified creatures attacking here! ]
【Please be safe! 】
【Please be safe! 】
Su Shui searched the surveillance camera and adjusted the screen to the location of the fishing net. He saw a circle of transparent objects surrounding the fishing net. These objects were wriggling like a group of transparent corpses. Although the shape could not be seen, the first impression it gave people was quite disgusting.
Misagaia zoomed in on the image and asked, "What are these?"
Su Shui shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. "The three of them used perception, and these things were attracted by perception. They should be some insects that are invisible to the naked eye."
Misagaia tried to use artificial intelligence to identify these transparent creatures again. After the artificial intelligence scanned them, it still gave a prompt: [Unknown creatures, unknown creatures.]
"Based on the current situation, these unknown creatures cannot enter the mecha and can only do whatever they want outside the mecha. Next, the three people of the Chapaka Military Academy will have a hard time."
"What if they have no strength left? Should we save them?"
"No need. They won't appreciate it if we rescue them directly. We can just let them go and let their own teammates rescue them."
Misagaia thought it made sense and nodded.
Shenque has entered the main gate of the palace. In the center of the main gate stands several golden stone pillars, which are arranged in a certain position. The material of the stone pillars is very advanced, and the main component is actually high-quality gray crystal! There are also some high-grade materials of unknown composition!
It is clearly an ancient relic. Could it be that the gray crystal had already been refined thousands of years ago?
【System prompt: The building materials contain a large amount of unknown chemicals. 】
Mu Jingchen's eyes stayed on the building. He found that this palace not only contained gray crystal components, but also many new materials that were being refined and developed by current interstellar civilizations.
Secondly, the unidentified chemical substances suggested by the system are likely to be new elemental materials that have not yet been discovered.
He thought of the picture drawn by Jin Duobao, turned on the optical computer, saved the picture into the brain of the mecha, and the drawing was immediately projected on the display screen.
There is almost no difference between the palace on the drawing and the one we see now, except for some details that are not drawn. The overall outline and layout are the same.
Misa Eijun glanced at the drawings for a few seconds and asked, "You wouldn't be like Su Shui and believe what Jin Duobao said, would you?"
"How else do you think Jin Duobao drew the palace? She has never even been to the palace, so why did she draw the buildings inside the main gate? And they are almost exactly the same?" Ya Donglin asked back.
Misa Eijun touched the back of his head and it seemed to be true.
"Oh my god! She... Jin Duobao has such a good memory? I thought her brain was the same as mine! She can actually remember things that Jin Duoling can't remember!"
Ya Donglin smiled awkwardly and almost said tactfully, "She is much better than you..."
"You look down on your teammates too much. Be careful not to be heard by her," he warned.
However, they ignored the communicator, which was left on.
Mizo Yingjun's words reached the ears of others, and naturally were heard by Jin Duobao. Jin Duobao yelled into the communicator: "Mizo Yingjun, you dare to compete with me in brain? What do you mean my brain is the same as yours? After the competition, get out of here!"
Misa Eijun: “…”Did I say something wrong?
Before he could even curse back, the communicator was turned off by Little White Tiger.
What kind of world is this? Why are there so many evil spirits?
Why did she tell me to get out of here?
Ya Donglin looked ahead and said cautiously, "Maybe we'll really be in trouble soon, but we'll be together."
Misa Eijun raised his head, his pupils dilated at that moment, and his throat turned, "This... this is..."
Shenque stopped, the scene before him was a completely creepy Shura scene!
There were corpses everywhere, piled up like mountains. There were not only human bones but also bones of large animals. All the bones were piled around a circular altar.
Looking up, the corpses were as high as more than twenty floors.
Ya Donglin held the little white tiger in his arms and said hesitantly, "Jingchen, it seems that a massacre happened here before."
"What kind of massacre...the bodies are laid out like this?" Misa Eijun swallowed.
Mu Jingchen pointed his finger at the layer of corpses through the transparent cover. After a moment, a purple barrier appeared around the corpses. It was this barrier that separated the corpses from the outside world.
As the barrier reappeared, the circular altar in the middle began to rise. When it rose to an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, the altar became transparent all over and was surrounded by a purple light. The patterns on the altar also became lifelike. At this moment, an ancient porcelain suddenly became brand new.
The three of them stared at all this in amazement. Honglian, who was at the back, saw the mysterious and quiet purple light before she even entered the main gate of the palace. However, Su Shui felt that the light made her feel uncomfortable, and Misagaia felt the same way.
The group of cadets who were standing still outside the palace were also shocked when they saw this scene, and they filmed it.
Inside the mecha of the Marine Academy, mecha master Jin Xiuheng said to deputy commander Jin Keyu: "Brother, I didn't expect this to be true."
Jin Keyu's mood was quite complicated. Ever since they could remember, they were required to read all the books in the Jin family library. In the past, he and his younger brother, as well as Jin Duoling and Jin Duobao, often played together, so the four of them had read an ancient book in the library when they were less than ten years old.
Since the contents of this ancient book were so detached from reality, it sounded like a myth at the time, so everyone just read it for fun and it also helped them complete their mission. They never expected that one day they would see the things in the book reappear in the world, which was truly incredible.
This should have been something worth celebrating, but Jin Keyu just couldn't feel happy at all.
Because he remembered that the palace described in the book eventually became a slaughterhouse, and he had also seen pictures of the altar now suspended in the air in the book, but the book did not explain in detail the purpose of the altar.
Just by looking at the altar's appearance, you can tell that it is not a bright and good thing.
The altar's pattern is a blood-red rose with a python totem on it.
Seeing that Jin Keyu didn't say a word, Jin Xiuheng continued, "Brother, the event tracking camera is now far away from our sight. Do you think tens of thousands of people were really slaughtered in this palace? Even artificial intelligence dare not approach this place, we..."
Jin Keyu said calmly: "Are you scared?"
Jin Xiuheng generously admitted that he was timid, "A little bit, fear of the unknown."
Jin Keyu looked at Ba Yue and Tian Long, "Fear is not a bad thing. Maybe Jin Duoling and Jin Duobao are the same as you and me now."
Jin Duobao stared at the purple altar without moving her eyes. Jiang Nanhe said to her, "Have you seen this thing in a book?"
"I seem to have a little impression of it. I was too playful at that time and didn't finish reading the book. I just flipped over and took a peek. I didn't expect the real thing to be so magnificent."
Jiang Nanhe sighed, "This is not called spectacular. You can tell at a glance that this thing is not a good thing. This thing looks much more weird than a palace."
Jin Duobao puffed up his cheeks, not afraid at all, "How about we go over and take a look?"
Jiang Nanhe immediately refused, "Mu Jingchen hasn't given any orders yet, so we can't go anywhere."
"Oh well!"
Here, the purple light from the altar was affecting the power in Su Shui's body, and the pupil color of one of Su Shui's eyes turned purple.
She covered her painful eyes. Misagaia came over to support Su Shui and asked with concern: "Su Shui, what's wrong with you?"
She put her hand on Su Shui's back and found that Su Shui's body temperature was very high. She guessed, "Do you have a fever?"
Su Shui waved his hand and said, "I'm fine."
Then she put down her hands, opened her eyes, looked at Su Shui's eyes in surprise, and said hesitantly: "Su Shui...your eyes..."
She handed Su Shui a mirror. After looking in the mirror, Su Shui realized that his eyes had turned purple, with both pupils being purple.
She and Misagaia looked at the altar, and Misagaia murmured, "Could it be that the altar has an influence on them?"
Su Shui was not sure. This was not the first time this had happened to her. This time it was much better. At least the things in her body had started to obey.
"It shouldn't be a big deal. Let's go in and take a look. Maybe we'll make a big discovery once we get in." Su Shui said calmly.
The power in the body seemed to be very familiar with this place, and Su Shui inexplicably felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
Not long after, Honglian arrived behind Shenque. When she saw the corpses piled up as high as a tall building, Su Shui's hands were shaking, his eyes were filled with shock, and tears were flowing out of his eyes uncontrollably.
Misagaia couldn't imagine what kind of horrific events had happened in this magnificent palace before it fell into silence.
Mu Jingchen and the others had already noticed Honglian. He said to Honglian's communicator, "Why did you follow us? It's very dangerous here."
Su Shui said casually: "I was worried that you couldn't get out, so I came here when I wanted to."
Mu Jingchen's throat rolled over, and he was silent for a while, then he said, "We are still fine now."
"Um."
At this moment, the reaction of the circular altar seemed to be even stronger. It began to affect the surrounding environment, and its power became more and more obvious.
The speed of the surrounding sea water began to increase, and even the ancient palace began to shake. On the foundation of the palace, several huge human-shaped sculptures began to emerge from the underground slope, and the palace's architecture began to undergo earth-shaking changes!
The height of the corpses gradually became shorter, and Su Shui saw with his own eyes that the purple barrier was shrinking deeper into the ground with the corpses, and many magnificent golden stone pillars were rising from the ground.
Ten minutes later, the ancient palace seemed to have been repackaged and turned into a bright temple.
