Chapter 700 Entering the Ruins
Chapter 700 Entering the Ruins
"So, how can you be sure this is a divine relic?"
Standing at the foot of the collapsed hill, Anno put down Philomena and scanned the blasted hill with his eyes, but found nothing unusual for the time being.
Philomena straightened her clothes, raised her chin, and said, "When I bombarded this mountain with magic just now, I sensed a special fluctuation."
You shouldn't be able to detect this magical fluctuation, but I can!
"So lucky?"
Anno was somewhat puzzled.
"It wasn't entirely luck; I think it was somewhere around here. So I gave it a try!"
Philomena leaped onto a rock, her eyes suddenly flashing with green light.
"In fact, the locations of most of the relics of the gods are unknown. After the gods fall, they are generally unwilling to let others dig up their graves."
But I happen to remember several locations of divine relics.
Before we met in Hidden Dragon City, I was already exploring those ruins.
After leaving Hidden Dragon City, Philomena did not continue exploring the relics of the gods, but instead chose to digest the treasures she had obtained there.
This is also why she was able to recover to the ninth level so quickly.
After observing for a while using special methods, Philomena said to Anno, "Come with me, I've found the entrance."
As she spoke, she flew to a pile of rubble.
Anno glanced around and realized that this was the very center of the entire mountain.
After landing, Philomena solemnly extended her hands.
Then, he continuously drew magic circles in the air with his fingers.
Buzz!
As the magic circles took shape, they fell to the ground and spread outwards as ripples.
Anno slowly felt as if something was about to emerge from beneath her feet, but it was still separated by an indistinct cover.
"No, that's not how it works!"
Philomena shook her head, then began to try again.
"This is a remote place in the Demon Realm, thousands of kilometers away from where the Demon King is located. It shouldn't disturb him."
However, nearby monsters will most likely be attracted by this strange magical fluctuation.
Anno raised his hand and summoned a group of seventh-tier summons, which he then deployed to guard the surrounding area.
Anno hadn't expected that Philomena would spend an entire day just opening the door to the Divine Relic.
Just as Anno had predicted, the magical energy emanating from this place attracted many monsters and magical beasts.
However, anyone who dared to approach was killed by Anno's summoned creatures.
"The ruins have been opened, let's go inside quickly!"
Somewhat exhausted, Philomena watched as the space in front of her suddenly shattered like a mirror, revealing a swirling black hole. She quickly beckoned Anno to go inside.
"Is everything alright?"
Upon hearing this, Anno recalled all his summoned creatures and stood before the black hole.
"In fact, most of the relics of the gods are alternate dimensions created by the gods, also known as the spaces of the gods!"
They are not on the same plane as the main space we live in.
However, there will be an anchor point connecting the relics of the gods and the main space.
This mountain peak is now an anchor point.
What I just did was locate the position in the other dimension based on the anchor point here, and then open the teleportation channel!
"Once we enter this passage, we can enter the relics of the gods."
"Will it be dangerous to go inside?"
"If there's no danger, can it still be called a divine legacy?"
Philomena rolled her eyes at Anno and said, "They're guarding against people like us."
Upon hearing this, Anno immediately took out a set of knight's gear from his storage equipment and put it on.
Anno's Dragon Scorpion set was destroyed before.
The dwarven kingdom said it would compensate Anno.
However, the Dwarf King still needs some time to prepare, and it's impossible for him to send Anno to the Demon Realm.
We can only check the quality of the equipment sent by the Dwarf King after we get back.
Philomena watched Anno put on his armor with a dark expression, and cursed, "I really don't know what kind of summoner you are!"
Ordinary summoners wear armor, and their stamina will definitely drop rapidly once they start moving in battle.
But Anno just likes to keep herself inside a turtle shell.
Their weapons are also greatswords and shields.
The staff was hardly ever used.
"I'm ready!"
Once fully dressed, Anno stood behind Philomena and mumbled, "Go in?"
"Walk!"
Philomena nodded, picked up her staff, and cast a magical shield on both Anno and herself.
When Philomena stepped into the whirlpool, its surface rippled as if a stone had been thrown into a lake.
Anno took a deep breath, gripped the Dragon Scorpion Tail Cannon Sword, and followed them inside.
Without the magic to sustain it, the vortex shrank to a point ten seconds after the two entered, and then disappeared completely.
The entire mountain has returned to normal.
......
Ding~ Ding-a-ling~!
Anno felt the scene flash by, and he found himself inside a stone cave, with faint ringing sounds coming from time to time.
The cave is surrounded by stalactites hanging upside down and crisscrossing side passages.
boom!
An attack struck Anno's shield, instantly cracking the shield that Philomena had placed on him!
"What?"
Anno's pupils contracted behind the mask, and he quickly moved his body, hiding behind a rock.
"This is a magic shield set up by Philomena, who is at the ninth rank. It should be much more defensive than an ordinary ninth rank shield, yet it was cracked by a single blow."
Anno, having concealed himself, looked around but did not see Philomena.
"The person has disappeared?"
Anno didn't believe that Philomena was deliberately playing hide-and-seek with him.
It seems that this unknown divine relic has activated its defensive measures right from the start.
The two have likely been teleported to different areas.
"What I feared most has come to pass; this is troublesome, the worst possible start!"
Philomena and Anno have shared a lot of information about the relics of the gods these days, and the current situation is one of them.
But Anno believes that separation is the worst-case scenario.
After all, this was his first time entering the ruins of the gods.
Even with the information and points to note given by Philomena, he still felt somewhat uncertain.
Ding~ Ring ring...
"That sound again, it sounds like a wind chime."
Anno frowned and summoned several creatures.
Philomena said that their search for treasure in the ruins of the gods was no different from that of tomb raiders.
Therefore, before gods are seriously injured and perish, they will set up a large number of traps or guardian monsters such as gargoyles in the ruins of the gods to deal with tomb raiders who break in!
Faced with the perilous relic of the gods, Anno plans to have his summoned creatures find the right path.
"The direction of the attack just now was that fork in the road ahead!"
Anno peeked from behind the rock and summoned a seventh-tier summon.
Then the seventh-tier summon summoned its own shadow and quietly crept over to check the situation.
boom!
The moment the summoned creature's shadow passed, the sounds of battle echoed through the passage.
Then, the seventh-tier summon next to Anno reported to Anno that there was a very strong enemy inside, and the shadow was caught off guard and instantly killed.
To be able to instantly kill someone at the peak of the seventh rank, one's strength must be at least at the ninth rank!
Click!
The sound coming from the passage ahead made Anno instantly alert, and then he led a group of summoned creatures into the passage to the side.
Ding~ Ring ring...
A humanoid creature with a black glow emerged from the passage carrying a heavy cleaver. It glanced at the spot where Anno had been standing before, then moved to the passage Anno had entered and followed him.
