Chapter 274: Endless Mountain (Part 2)
Chapter 274: The Endless Mountain (Part 2)
"I'll tell them." Rex took out a flying puppet, wrote a letter, and asked the flying puppet to send it down. Fortunately, they kept leaving coordinates on the mountain along the way, otherwise the flying puppet would not be able to go back by themselves. After replacing the advanced magic core for the flying puppet, Rex watched the puppet fly down, and then said to Salin: "I'll let them wait, don't worry."
"Yeah." Salin nodded and agreed, thinking in his heart. If he could own this space, why should he guard Metatlin City?
Of course, Salin would not go up the mountain slowly. Sika and Byrne were different from ordinary soldiers. Everyone rested for four hours and continued to move forward. In this way, after flying for two months, Salin and others finally reached the top of the mountain.
Flying to the top of the mountain, except for Shika, the other three felt like they were about to fall apart. Shika borrowed the power of the skeleton of the monster, and she was very relaxed, while Salin and others' fatigue reached their limits.
The top of the mountain is as flat as imagined. A huge temple stands in the middle. In front of the temple, there is a small square. In the center of the square, there is a huge stone tablet.
After a brief rest, Salin and others came to the stone tablet. The stele was engraved with ancient mels. Salin and his heart felt aroused a lot of turmoil.
The stone tablet carved was the origin of the mountain. Salin guessed that this mountain was indeed an endless mountain. What he did not expect was that the endless mountain was not created by a goddess, but was actually moved from the giant plane.
The origin of this mountain is related to the first dynasty on the Meers continent.
During the First Dynasty, humans were extremely powerful. However, Goddess Meles was still the only god on this continent and had many believers. The battle between the First Dynasty and the gods finally caused the counterattack of the gods. However, the humans at that time had extremely fierce combat power and had many allies in the planes, and the counterattack of the gods was fruitless.
In the end, the gods used tricks to kill a god, the Sun God, above the continent of Meles.
This sun god was originally an affiliation to Goddess Meles. Although it was a pseudo-god, it had a great effect. When the sun god was killed, the Meles continent suddenly fell into darkness. The humans of the First Dynasty were furious, but they had the ability to get a new sun, but they could not create a god. Without the control of the gods, even if they got a sun, they would not be able to enter the star orbit in a short period of time and would sooner or later fly away from the Meles continent.
At this time, Goddess Meles took action and used her magic to fix a sun moved by humans on orbit and run freely. This saved a catastrophe from the Meles continent. If there was no sun, it would be unfavorable for the strong men on the Meles continent, but ordinary people would be extinct.
In those days, gods could still enter the plane of the Meers Continent, and such things would happen sooner or later. Goddess Meers simply used divine power to block the plane of the Meers Continent. Apart from humans, the power of gods could no longer invade. The consequence of this was that Goddess Meers could not leave either.
The emperor of the First Dynasty was grateful to Goddess Meles for helping him, so he brought countless rare treasures and species from various planes and gave them to the goddess.
This endless mountain was moved by humans from the giant plane back then.
Salin once imagined what state humans would be at their most powerful time and how powerful they would be. However, after exhausting their imagination, he did not expect that humans could migrate the stars. In contrast, although this endless mountain is tall, it is nothing.
From the astrologer's classics, we can guide that the sun is a huge fireball, larger than the Meers continent. The temperature on the sun can directly melt most metals, even rhenium gold is no exception. The sun above Meers continent was actually moved by humans from other star spaces.
No wonder the humans dared to attack the Kingdom of God! That was not arrogant. If Salin had this power himself, he might have developed corresponding ambitions.
Goddess Meers predicted that she would die, so she filled the materials obtained from various planes in this space and created a tomb for herself. Everything in this space is nourished and transformed by Goddess Meers' divine power. In the Shen Palace, there are the seeds of the divine tree left by her, and only those with natural divine power can enter.
The conditions for taking away the seeds of the divine tree are very simple. Just write a contract on the stone tablet, open the temples of all goddesses on the continent, and create millions of believers, and you can obtain the wealth left by the goddess, including the seeds of the divine tree.
This contract has a deadline and must be completed within a thousand years. Otherwise, the person who signs the contract will automatically fly back to the stone tablet and be imprisoned forever. The seeds of the divine tree will disappear and return to the temple regardless of whether it sprouts or not.
Obviously, when the goddess erected the stone tablet, human life span was still very long. According to the life span of humans on the Meers continent today, only a level nine magician could live for a thousand years.
However, Salin still hesitated. It is not difficult to open all temples. The goddess must have left the coordinates of the temple. But creating millions of believers is troublesome.
If there are no miracles, how can we develop believers?
Salin didn't believe that contract was a joke. If the soul was imprisoned for eternity, it was the most terrible punishment.
After reading the text on the stone tablet, not only Rex hesitated, Sarin did not dare to write down his name easily. Although he is only a level five magician now, there are a lot of enemies. Behind him is Sarin Island, and Rex supports each other, he may not be afraid of the Holy See. As long as you survive more than two years, when Sarin Island is reopened, the mages go to Metatrium City, and all the troubles can be resolved. With thirty-six magic towers guarding, Sarin can't think of anyone else who can break Metatrium City.
If the time is more abundant, the wizard of Metatlin City will enter the six-yuan space and have a bunch of 9-level magicians as their backers. It is not too difficult for him to become a wizard. After advancement, the 6-yuan space can also quickly become a 9-level magician.
Salin's wealth is already extremely rich, do you still have to take risks?
If you want to develop millions of believers, you must fight with the Holy See and have no room for maneuver. It is obviously not enough for Metatriline City to be a city. The goddess never wants to be a false believer. She must be a true believer in order to meet the contract requirements.
"Sarin, what is it written on it?" Sarin's literacy was also very bad in Salin's opinion. Seeing Salin and Rex's expressions the same, she knew that he was in trouble.
Salin patiently explained the contract to Shika. Twenty-four temples are spread throughout the continent. These twenty-four temples should be used as the foundation of missionary work and they need to be unified in the continent. If you go to the Tanggulas Empire to preach the doctrine of the goddess, the Holy Church will definitely kill all your pastors based on the principle of peace.
Without pagans, of course there will be peace. This is the way of thinking of the Holy Church.
"Sarin, do you have a way out?" Sika asked very directly.
Salin was stunned. He thought about it carefully. Even if he did not accept the goddess' contract, would the Holy Church let him go? He had natural divine power. Now there was another divine beast around him, and the Holy Church would spare no effort to deal with him. Even if Metatlin City can protect his temporary safety, he would not be able to hide in it forever?
Shika's question pointed directly at his heart. Although Salin had thought about this and thought he had figured it out, he did not realize until now that he still hadn't seen through it.
"No matter what, I will accompany you. You should ask whether Rex dares to leave a name on it." Sika looked at Rex provocatively. If Rex dared not sign a contract, he would not be qualified to distribute the seeds of the sacred tree.
"Princess, no!" Byrne glared at Shika in anger.
"Why not?" Rex asked faintly. Her eyes had never left the stone tablet. The words on it were thrilling. Not only did the content of the war in the Kingdom of Gods, but also described many things about the First Dynasty.
Byrne doesn't know what to say, the Grucos family has never lacked geniuses, and Rex is the best among them. As long as she continues to practice, without the seeds of the divine tree, she will become one of the strongest people in this continent.
But no matter how strong you are, you cannot unify the continent by your own strength. Destroy all empires, open up a new world, and restore the goddess's faith. All this is harder than becoming a level ten strongman.
If it is not done within a thousand years, Rex's soul will never be freed. Behind Rex is the royal family of Grucos, she should not take risks, there is no need to take risks.
Rex smiled and said, "It's enough to break this stone tablet with eighteen levels of power. In contrast, it's easier to establish a unified dynasty."
Byrne had a lot of strength, but he could not change Rex's will. Rex continued: "My father's greatest wish is to unify the continent and let Qin Yin's laws replace the corrupt rules on the mainland that imprisoned the people's thoughts. In contrast, my wish is small. However, my father is no longer here, and I am willing to replace his grand ideal."
Rex's voice grew louder and louder. Finally, she released an ice cone, pierced her finger, and wrote her name on the stone tablet with blood.
"Hmph!" Shika snorted heavily, cut her fingers with a boomerang, and left her name on the stone tablet. She said to Byrne, who was rubbing her hands aside, "Four seeds, if you don't leave your name..."
Shika's meaning is very obvious. If Byrne refuses to leave a name on the stone tablet and signs the goddess' contract, then the seeds of the divine tree will be divided by three people.
Byrne glared at Shika, but he still pulled out his dagger, cut his finger, and left his name next to Shika's signature. "It's your turn, Salin." Byrne's voice was cold. He did not expect that it would be the result of reaching the mountain.
