First Army? Leo, Jason, Nelson and Catherine were all at a loss when they heard the name and didn't understand what it meant.

On the contrary, Sean showed a surprised expression, took a belt that was about to fall apart from the hands of High Priest Deni, looked at it carefully, and slightly questioned: "You mean these corpses are that of the non-existent number one?"

military?"

Leo, Catherine and others were not clear about the First Army mentioned by High Priest Denis, but Sean had specially studied the information about the Lanxi slave uprising for this underground trip.

Although most of the qualifications related to the slave uprising were destroyed by the French royal family, the British royal family, which has always liked to confront the French royal family, is very willing to retain some of them to embarrass the French royal family without being too exciting.

Sean also saw the opponent's secondary information and the qualifications of the First Army there.

As for whether King Yassin established the First Army, all scholars who study slave rebellions have no consensus, because from any campaign data that can be collected now, there is no existence of the First Army. Everyone’s understanding of the First Army

They all come from a slave's diary.

However, because the slave himself had just learned to write when he wrote the diary, his handwriting was very illegible, and he often wrote wrong words, so most people thought that the First Army was just caused by the slave writing wrong words.

of.

"The First Army is real." High Priest Denis said with great certainty: "The people who make up the First Army are all the most skilled gladiators in Lanxi Arena, so some people at that time also called the First Army Ya.

King Xin's personal bodyguards." As he spoke, he looked at the belt in his hand, then at the corpses on the ground, and said, "I didn't expect that the First Army would all die here before they had time to make a name for themselves in this world.

"

"Do you have the best skills?" Leo walked to the corpses, looked through the bones casually, found some traces of battle, and then analyzed: "They did not encounter a sudden attack. Everyone was ready to attack.

, all of them were killed by the attackers from the front, and the attackers’ weapons were very sharp and powerful. The combat power of the two was completely different.”

Leo analyzed the clues found on the corpses, and the assistant brain system simultaneously brought together these clues, the location of the corpses, the circumstances of death and other data, analyzed them, and soon formed a battle reenactment image, showing the circumstances of these people's deaths.

The scene reappeared before his eyes.

After seeing the analyzed images, Leo stood up from the pile of corpses and said to everyone: "The thing that killed them had at least eight arms."

Everyone felt that Leo's conclusion was a little ridiculous, but thinking about the gargoyles they had seen before, they felt that the eight-armed attacker Leo mentioned might not be impossible.

Just when everyone was still immersed in the fact that King Yassin's first army was wiped out by the eight-armed attacker, Leo suddenly stood up and quickly exited the door, and at the same time asked Catherine and the others to exit the door.

.

"What happened?" Sean asked with a puzzled look on his face as he backed out of the door.

Leo stared forward, put the king back on his waist, pulled out two battle axes, and said: "There is the sound of gears turning and it is approaching."

Just as Leo finished speaking, others could also hear the faint sound of gears, ringing in the passage inside the door in front of them, and getting louder and louder, as if something was approaching.

However, when the sound became very clear and High Priest Deni and the others became extremely nervous, taking out their weapons and preparing to fight at any time, Leo, who had warned everyone in the first place, relaxed and looked up towards the top of the passage ahead.

I looked over.

Just when the sound of gears made everyone feel that the enemy was not far ahead, all the sounds of gears stopped, and then they saw a fire suddenly rising above their heads, and the light of the fire slicked from the top of their heads.

The reflection from the stone wall completely illuminated the entire passage behind the door.

At this time, you can see that the previous gear noise was caused by the braziers hanging at the top of the passage. The gear noise just now should be the sound caused by the metal pots hanging from the top.

Those fires were all burning fiercely in these metal round pots hung by iron chains. The number of fire pots was impossible to count. In short, they extended into the depths of the passage, as far as the eye could see.

When the fire light illuminated the entire passage, except for Leo, who had already understood the situation in the passage through the spiritual network, everyone was shocked by what they saw, because the corpses they found were not just at the door.

, but the entire passage is paved.

In addition to the corpses of the soldiers of the First Army, looking around, there are more than a dozen gargoyle-like remains. The shapes of these remains are very weird. They are all composed of a humanoid lower body and four humanoid upper bodies to form a nondescript conjoined body.

A gargoyle, and the shape of this gargoyle exactly matches the eight-armed attacker that Leo mentioned before.

Compared with the narrow and low passage opposite the Earth Fissure Abyss, the passage in front of us is obviously wider and much taller, more than eight meters high and six meters wide. But even so, for a large number of people,

It was still too narrow for the First Army.

You can imagine the scene at that time. The people of the First Army were all piled up in this passage. A dozen conjoined stone statues wielded eight sharp blades and rushed into the crowd without fear of swords and guns. Any slash could kill them.

There were a large number of soldiers, and the only thing the First Army could do was to destroy these dozens of stone monsters with human lives.

"It's really tragic!" Even a person like Sean, who puts interests first, couldn't help but sigh when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Let's go! I hope there's no stone monster like this ahead." Leo, who had seen more brutal battlefields, didn't rush out much. When everyone recovered a little from the shock, they stepped forward.

Seeing this, the others didn't think much about anything else and quickly followed.

At first, everyone was careful to avoid these corpses when walking because of some concerns. However, after Leo quickened his pace, everyone ignored their concerns and walked forward directly stepping on these corpses.

Therefore, the sound of cracking bones was constantly heard in the passage, which made people feel very frightened and even shuddered.

Just when everyone's attention was attracted by the corpses scattered everywhere in front of them, Leo, who was leading the way, turned his attention to the brazier above his head.

Just now, Leo smelled a unique smell, and he had only smelled this unique smell when the monster was burned to death before, after the body fluids still in the monster's body evaporated. This was what happened during the burning process of the body fluids.

The unique smell produced.

Through the spiritual network, he discovered that the substance burning in the brazier was a special kind of grease. Even after so many years, the grease still had not decayed or evaporated. Moreover, the grease was also very flammable. If it was touched by a spark, it would be completely ignited.

Yes, this is consistent with the monster's body fluids.

Leo felt that if, as he suspected, these oils were refined from the body fluids of those monsters, then considering the origin of those monsters, it would not be difficult to guess what the oils were made of.

And this also made him feel that these Nilgardians might not be as innocent and pitiful as Catherine and the others said.

Although this passage is very long, because the road is straight and has no twists and turns, the time it takes to reach the end of the passage is much less than the previous passage across the abyss.

I don't know if it was because the battle that took place here hundreds of years ago had destroyed all the defense methods here, but the group did not encounter any attacks along the way.

On the contrary, there were as many as forty damaged conjoined stone statues encountered, and without exception, the ancient wizard artifacts on all the stone statues were completely destroyed, which also made everyone wonder whether these stone monsters might

This is the entire defense force here.

At the end of the passage is a not too big, artificially dug cave, the size of which is equivalent to an ordinary hotel lobby. The interior is very empty, without anything superfluous. There are only another bronze door opposite the passage exit and a stone in the middle of the cave.

The station is quite eye-catching.

But the most puzzling thing is that there is no corpse in this cave, as if there is an invisible force at the entrance of the cave that blocks all the corpses in the passage.

Different from the previous bronze door, this bronze door does not have any rust. Under the light from the brazier, the surface shines with golden light, making it look very solemn.

Compared to the expensive bronze gate, the stone platform in the center of the cave seems so insignificant.

There are no mysterious and luxurious patterns on the surface of the stone platform, and the overall shape has not been carefully carved. It looks like the person who dug the cave casually made a stone pier for resting, but forgot to remove it when leaving.

This stone platform is just erased.

However, such an ordinary stone platform is more valuable than the well-preserved bronze door in Leo's eyes, because Leo found that his spiritual network could not penetrate the stone platform, just like the high-spirited door before.

Energy force fields are also excluded.

Just like that, when everyone walked to the bronze door, studied the Nilgaard words and patterns on it, and considered how to open the door, Leo walked to the stone platform in the center of the cave and put his hand on the stone.

On stage.

"Unknown psychic props, unknown function, cannot be absorbed."

Leo looked at the analysis results that appeared in front of him and felt a little confused. Although the accessory brain system had already analyzed the results, Leo still thought that the results were wrong or incomplete.

Because the moment he touched the stone platform, he had an inexplicable feeling that this stone platform should be the source of the high-energy force field that just disappeared.

"Is this stone platform special?" Jason was not interested in the words or patterns on the bronze door. He followed Leo and saw that Leo was very focused on studying this stone that he thought was too ordinary.

Taiwan, couldn't help but asked doubtfully.

"It's not special in other places, but don't you feel special here?" Leo smiled, asked Jason, and then said to Catherine who was trying to push the door again, but there was no response from the door:

"Catherine, can you come over and touch this stone platform? Like the door just now, this thing may require Nilgardians to activate it."

"What is this?" Catherine came over after hearing this, and looked at the stone platform that made her feel very ordinary. Although she was a little puzzled, she still followed Leo's request and touched the stone platform with her hands.

When Catherine touched the stone platform, Leo was also prepared for unexpected situations. Everyone else was also very vigilant. But what was surprising was that after Catherine touched it, there was no reaction or change. Just like Leo just now

Same as when touched.

Puzzled, Leo asked Catherine to touch different parts of the stone platform a few more times, but the result was the same.

Sean next to him saw that Catherine, the only one who could open the bronze door, was asked to do some useless things, and couldn't help shouting: "Instead of touching that useless stone platform, let's think about how to open this door!"

"How do you know it's useless?" Jason, who disliked Sean very much, immediately replied and said in a somewhat confused manner: "You are not this stone."

Sean was too lazy to argue with a rough guy like Jason, and said directly to Leo: "This stone is obviously a prop deliberately arranged by the Nilgardians to confuse people. Think about it, the people outside walked through the passage for the first time.

When I saw a stone platform here at a glance, I would definitely be curious about why this seemingly ordinary stone platform was here. I thought there must be some device on this stone platform, so I would focus all my attention on the stone platform and forget about it.

This door is the highlight of the entire cave."

High Priest Deni who was standing next to him obviously disagreed with Sean's words and retorted: "When this place was originally built, the Nilgardians still controlled the entire underground city-state, so the people who come in and out of here must be Nilgardians.

Do you think the Nilgardians would specially set up such a stone platform just to expose themselves to such a scam that they would not fall for?"

Sean asked back: "Then what do you think is going on with this stone platform?"

"I don't know, I just think..." High Priest Deni touched the stone platform with his hand, a solemn look on his face, and said: "This stone platform is very dangerous."

Although High Priest Deni was not as sensitive to energy fields as Leo's spiritual network, he could immediately discover the spiritual energy field on the stone platform after entering the cave, but after touching it with his own hands, he

He could clearly feel the strength of the force field contained in the stone platform, which frightened him.

At this moment, Nelson, who had never spoken a word, suddenly said: "Could it be the altar?"

After saying this, everyone immediately wanted to refute, but soon they realized that there seemed to be nothing wrong with Nelson's words.

Including Leo, almost everyone will involuntarily have some images in their minds after hearing about the altar, such as a tall platform with religious decoration, such as being surrounded by solemn religious-style buildings, etc.
