Chapter 681 Underground Temple

"Defensive formation!"

Soshyan's eyes widened with anger, and he hit the deformed skull of the monster holding the warrior with a bolt gun. The thing let go of the target and struggled for a long time before dying.

But it had pierced the warrior's helmet, bruised his face, and broken his nose.

"pharmacist."

Soshyan pulled the soldier up and saw blood gushing out from his nose and mouth, so he handed him over to the pharmacist on the side.

More howls sounded, and the clawed demon was stimulated by the blood of its kind, and rushed over crazily, through the fog and ruins.

But at the same time a figure ran toward them through the mist; a figure brandishing a sword.

Soshiyang was like a wave in the trees, waving the Holy Sword, guiding it to slash at the enemy, leaving a trail of scarlet behind him.

The claws of the Claw Demon cut sparks on the Terminator armor, but Soshyan was not afraid and swept through like a prairie fire, just for killing, always ready to embrace death.

Then, Talos also rushed forward, and the two of them chopping melons and vegetables directly dealt with the clawed demons that rushed forward.

They didn't stop until the last one was eliminated, and at this time there were more than thirty mutilated corpses lying on the ground.

"This is a group that seems to be showing signs of going wild."

After examining the bodies of the dead claw demons, Talos overturned his previous theory.

"They may have had owners before, but they probably don't have them now."

Soshiyang looked towards the direction in which these clawed demons were pouring out, and could vaguely see large walls, as well as large areas of ruins everywhere. The huge vaulted ceiling had probably succumbed to gravity countless years ago and fell to the ground.

These wreckage stretches endlessly into the thick fog.

"Let's go and have a look,"

Following the path of the wreckage, through the fog, everyone discovered a new space.

This new clearing is really unusually large. It occupies a space of almost fifty meters high and a diameter of about two hundred meters. It does not appear to be naturally formed. There are arches above the clearing made of twisted vines and spiritual bones.

The ceiling looks like some unusual gardener built a cave with plants.

Strange plants shone with phosphorescence, adding some weird blue-green shimmer to the place. A huge flat stone structure, almost thirty meters high and sixty meters wide, stayed quietly in the shadows in the center of the open space.

It reminds everyone of a giant toad lying on the ground ready to ambush unwary insects.

Soshyan slowly approached the structure, and the others followed behind, guarding him while looking around.

They all realized the need to investigate here, and at the same time they also felt a frightening sense of uneasiness.

Soshyan felt that this feeling could only be experienced on a silent battlefield, surrounded by pain and death, but he seemed to be attracted by an invisible magnet.

From the surrounding soldiers' actions of constantly checking their weapons and checking their surroundings, he felt their uneasiness. When Soshyan reached the bottom of the hidden structure, he turned on the second lighting on the armor.

A bright light reveals much more than a plant's phosphorescence.

Countless stones form a huge, layered pyramid-shaped temple.

He couldn't tell whether the temple was carved from a huge rock or a carefully constructed structure. Countless grinning faces appeared on the surface of the stone, some human, others

They were Eldar, some were insectoid and animalistic, and some were completely unrecognizable.

Everyone's first impression is that this place is the residence of an ancient demon. Although there is no better reason than ancient superstition, Soshyan also believes that this place must be connected to Chaos in some way.

After experiencing so many events, he always doubted Chaos.

Other members of the team also used their own bright lights to fight against the dark and silent atmosphere of the temple. Slowly, the warriors stood in a circle around the temple, studying it, looking for clues to its age and purpose.

symbols and emblems.

The sides of the stone staircase are decorated with sculptures in the shape of flames, as well as symbols such as eyes and skeletons.

After confirming that nothing more would be found below, Soshyan led a few people to climb up the stairs, while others stood at the bottom of the structure to be on guard.

On the third floor of the temple, they found an opening. The wall outside the passage was carved with a pattern of a scorpion being grasped by a pair of burning hands.

Seeing this weird symbol, the hair on Soshiyang's neck stood up subconsciously - he didn't like it here.

Despite the dangers, there was still one thing they had to do.

"We should go inside."

He declared this.

"Are you crazy? You just want to get into an unclear temple?"

Talos interrupted him immediately.

"There is a saying in the Eye of Fear: Don't listen to what you hear and don't enter the temple. These are all words of experience. Demons like to stay in abandoned temples and use their voices to lure the ignorant."

Soshyan also hesitated. He put his hand on the door of the temple, understanding that Talos was telling the truth. It was indeed unwise to rush into an unfamiliar temple.

But what he didn't notice was that his hand happened to rest on the symbol.

Suddenly, a strong suction force came from the dark door. Soshyan didn't react at all, and his whole body turned around and fell into the darkness.

In the end, he only heard Talos's panicked cry and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

"No, the door-"

It wasn't until a few minutes later that he broke free from his dizziness.

At first, he thought it was some kind of witchcraft, so he immediately activated the gray marrow, but when he looked carefully, he found that there was no demon and he was in a hall.

The hall was dark, except for a large number of statues with twisted and weird shapes. They were sharp, ugly, and indescribable.

Then he saw a light behind a door, so Soshyan walked through the door warily.

As soon as you enter the room, the shining light in front of you disappears.

Taking a closer look, I saw a wide space divided between two rows of pillars, with dark corridors on both sides. A large number of skulls were piled on a stone slab in the center of the room, with dying flames beeping on it.

Sound.

On the pillars, there were countless torches inserted into the iron candlesticks, emitting an unpredictable light that could complement the red glow of the fireside.

The room was crowded with humanoid things, numerous in number.

The reason why they are said to be humanoid is because it is difficult for Soshyan to judge whether they are human beings. Their outlines are roughly human-shaped, but their ebony-black skin is covered with disgusting runes, and their faces are constantly changing.

It changes and twists, sometimes it is a faceless mask, and sometimes it is a bloody mouth full of fangs.
