Mordu waited outside the dungeon for several hours but did not see the emperor or the imperial guards coming out. Seeing that the temperature was getting lower and lower, the sky was getting darker, and the wind and snow on the mountains were getting heavier and heavier, so he had to turn around and follow the path.
The stone road that is often covered with snow all year round leads to the transfer station at a lower altitude.
Teleportation spells are completely prohibited in this area, and Modu would rather endure the wind and snow than try to see if this ban is strong. He said hello to the family who had guarded the transfer station there for generations, and then walked out of the warm stable.
Pull out an XZ horse and put it on the sled, and slowly return to the Kama Taj headquarters, which is dozens of kilometers away. This kind of horse has strong adaptability on the plateau, and the snow cannot stop this strong livestock.
, it won’t be long before he can return to the warm Kama Taj and block the low-temperature cold air outside the shield.
The horse that brought him here was resting in the herdsman's stable. This time he took away another brown horse with white spots on its forehead. This family has received funding from Kamal Taj for generations.
There were also spellcasters who studied in Kama Taj. Because of their loyalty, they took on more tasks such as guarding the transfer station leading to the dungeon and the tasks given by the Supreme Mage.
As an apprentice instructor and the manager of Karma Taj, Modu was not as familiar with this family as the emperor. When he came here again, the cabin in his memory turned into a small cabin hidden in stone walls and reinforced concrete.
Fortresses and permanent fortifications - After the emperor took more power, the family's treatment went up to a higher level. The emperor equipped this place with a large number of munitions such as individual anti-tank missiles, explosive machine gun weapon platforms, anti-aircraft armored vehicles, and independent power generation.
With a crew and a large amount of fuel, if necessary, the family can sit on the sled and launch a mountain guerrilla war, knocking down all armed helicopters trying to fly at this altitude.
However, as an instructor of Kama Taj, Mordo did not have the right to use gasoline or snowmobiles, so he could only choose the more ancient livestock-powered method to return to Kama Taj. Although Mordo's behavior towards his fellow disciples was not
He agreed, but he also had to admit that sometimes 20mm cannons, anti-tank missiles and armored vehicles were indeed more useful in the hands of mortals than some talismans distributed to mortals. Whether it was stability or safety, compared to talismans
, thermal weapon technology products are superior in every dimension. The emperor would rather let mortals come into contact with thermal weapons and minimize their dependence on magic.
Some people may think that ordinary people can accompany the emperor throughout the journey.
The watcher, who was like a walking corpse, had to stop when he entered the underground passage at a depth of about four thousand meters.
The deeper they went into the mountain, the more strange sights they encountered. The strong winds rolling up from the ground lifted up the fabric covering the faces of the watchers, revealing the dry eyes of the black-robed watchers who had their eyeballs gouged out and then the eyelids were sewn up. Watchers
Unable to see, hear, and communicate in conventional ways, even the emperor and the imperial guards could only communicate with the watchers in a limited manner through a code composed of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the bells in their hands.
The first generation of supreme mage Agamotto established Kama Taj just to guard this ruins. Even Agamotto and his followers at that time spent a long time to slowly understand the scale of this ruins and gradually clean it up.
The threats that once existed here. This is an extremely majestic underground space. Inhuman creatures have carved giant palaces in the ground to accommodate powerful creatures. Traces of terrifying reliefs remain on the towering pillars dozens of meters high. The vast halls
It can even accommodate a company of ground armor of genetically modified warriors. Although it is deep underground, the oxygen content is still sufficient. The ventilation system built by extradimensional creatures with inhuman wisdom and engineering capabilities is for the followers of inhuman creatures.
It can survive, but now these projects have become a necessity for the caretakers living here.
The genius Agamotto used the only power he had at the time to upgrade this place.
He ordered his followers to build huge mechanisms and stone gates, and used secret methods to construct the eternal fire that even blind people could see and spread it throughout the halls to dispel the darkness. He gradually expanded the original ruins and turned them into a
In shelters and military camps, runes carved into the stone walls control supernatural energy. But now with the ban of Agamotto gradually withering away, supernatural forces and phenomena will inevitably erode the original stable control area-until the arrival of the emperor,
Those supernatural powers gradually faded away. Although he was not wearing armor, the radiance emitted by the emperor reflected into the mind of the watcher like the eternal fire. The blood vessels and muscles clinging to the stone bricks gradually shrank and turned into thick smoke, which was annoying.
The whispers were stripped from the air, and the malicious phantom was crushed by the emperor's presence. Passing through the dark hall where the eternal fire brazier was lit and the concentration incense burner was placed, the watcher stopped in front of the huge stone door.
According to the legend of this ethnic group, this stone door carved with giant figures is the end of the ethnic group.
"My lord, that relief." Hammurabi lowered his voice. He instructed the drone to raise the strong lighting equipment to illuminate the giant stone door. The relief of the basalt stone door depicts a man wearing armor, holding a long sword, and surrounded by lightning.
A man, with a giant beast with wings stepping under his boots. The sword in his hand was buried in the beast's body. Stars with radioactive light spread across the background like stars. The Imperial Guard instantly recognized the relief.
The scene depicted made even the well-informed Hammurabi take a breath of air. "This is not a good sign."
"I know." The emperor looked at the face that was very similar to his own on the relief, and he understood that it was the work of Agamotto. It is said that Agamotto is good at prophecy and exploring the truth. He is so wise that he is almost omniscient. Perhaps in
In the age before human civilization was enlightened, the first supreme mage predicted the successors who would come here. Every generation of Lords of Kamatha is good at prophecy, and even the emperor who is about to become the next Lord of Kamatha is not
Exceptionally, drawing wisdom from prophecies is also their specialty. "Perhaps this is a joke by Agamotto. I really didn't expect the first mystic to have such a sense of humor." The emperor raised his hand and looked at his fingers.
Tian Yuanzhangjie said thoughtfully, "It seems that he has foreseen some of the actions I will take in the future and has made preparations for me in advance."
Gender no longer matters, all guards are equally shriveled and boring.
The touching beauty and the pleasant voice mean nothing to the caretakers. They don't even have the tongue to taste the delicious food. The reproduction of this group is carried out completely according to the established procedures, without any fun that ordinary people should have - about the fun of human reproduction.
References are quoted from video materials and books, sources [Note 1], [Note 2], [Note 3], [Note 4], [Note 5] - even though the Supreme Mage occasionally gives slaves from the outside world to the Watchers
The population is used as a reproductive tool, but the small number of slaves simply cannot provide much genetic diversity, allowing the small number of guardians to avoid the dilemma of inbreeding.
Through genetic testing and traceability, we have more than once discovered the chaotic blood relationship network of the Watcher group. However, the Watcher group does not have any common genetic diseases such as mental retardation and physical deformity caused by inbreeding. Genetic testing has found that there are often benign genes in the Watcher group. mutation, and all Watchers are healthy.
This is not common sense at all.

The latest discovery is that watchers will reproduce in fixed locations.
By interpreting the myths and legends of the guardians, it was found that the place where reproduction and interaction took place was a place similar to a religious holy place, with a huge stone platform, a fire basin, and a large number of esoteric extradimensional symbols engraved on it. Combined with the monarch's judgment of the holy place of reproduction , it seems that due to the genetic mutation induced by the magic in that room, the Watcher tribe has avoided most of the disadvantages of inbreeding and has continuously produced humans with powerful minds.
This is a very interesting discovery. This is knowledge about reproduction and mutation, which is very different from creating the "stability" of us Praetorian Guards, but the monarch believes that the knowledge in this may be helpful for future projects, because there are many members of the Watcher tribe. So far, no one with the talent of a spellcaster has appeared, which means that this is a completely different technical route from the genetic alchemy created by the monarch, but it has the same goal.
However, compared to the work of organizing the Kama Taj Dungeon, this knowledge can be studied in the future. The monarch believes that we still have time.
