Chapter 39 Pretending to be a ghost

The great project continues, in which millions of people work tirelessly, and the turmoil caused by Victor is just an insignificant episode.

However, this interlude may change the sound of gold and iron in the city.

Surrounded by the guards, he returned to the entrance of the temple again, stood under the statue that looked like a god, and waited quietly.

All those praying were driven away, the square was cleared, and a bald believer respectfully entered the temple to make a report.

Everyone in the square was half-kneeling on the ground devoutly. Only Victor stood alone, with his hands behind his hands, looking at the mysterious statue again.

"Is he a king or a god?"

He muttered to himself.

A moment passed, and the believer who had entered to report hurriedly came back and said to him: "The high priest has agreed to see you."

It is the common language. This believer is very proficient in this language, which makes Victor feel in a trance.

He came back to his senses and made some calculations, and found that there was indeed danger ahead.

However, if he wants to figure out the secrets of this city, he has to get information from the people in power.

These workers who only know how to build towers cannot provide him with effective information.

"Let's go!"

After adding all the talismans that could be blessed, Victor suddenly touched something soft and soft, and suddenly realized that he had forgotten it.

Xiaohei...

After this guy fell into the water, he stopped moving and fell into some kind of strange sleep.

With doubts in mind, he followed the believers up the steps made of huge stones until he stepped into the temple and was swept by a fragrant breeze.

The scene inside the temple surprised Victor. The magnificent decoration was in sharp contrast with the piles of earth and stones outside.

The statues on both sides are all golden, and the central avenue is paved with fine-grained soft carpets, filled with flower petals, revealing the slightest fragrance.

Facing the front is a solemn statue, which is also like a golden sculpture. It should be the same as the statue in front of the main hall, but the posture is slightly different.

In front of the statue is a relatively narrow altar. There is a conspicuous stone throne in front of the altar, and the man on the seat holds a gemstone scepter, wears a gold laurel crown on his head, and hangs around his neck a golden round cake engraved with sun patterns.

He closed his eyes slightly and breathed slowly. The golden statue behind him reflected the sunlight from the skylight of the temple, and then refracted onto his crown.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Victor always feels that the angle of the refracted light is wrong.

"You want to see me..."

The man opened his eyes and looked at Victor with contempt.

Upon hearing this, Victor confirmed that the person in front of him was the high priest of the city.

However, his clothes were too luxurious and he didn't feel like a religious leader at all. Instead, he looked like a king sitting in a city.

lingua franca…

Victor frowned and had some guesses in his mind, so he raised his head and told him: "Yes, and I have a few questions to ask..."

The high priest did not let Victor continue to speak, but directly interrupted him and said: "You are not a messenger sent by the great race."

Victor was not angry even after being interrupted, and smiled: "Oh? How do you judge it?"

"I accept the will and orders of the great race directly and without any hindrance. If I say you are not, then you are not."

After hearing this, Victor suddenly asked: "Is the great race your hero king? Is he a human or a god?"

"rude!"

The high priest on the throne slammed down the scepter and pointed the gem-encrusted end at Victor: "Mortals are not qualified to discuss the King of Heroes. Your duty is to build a giant tower for Him that leads directly to transcendence!"

In this way, the king of this city is also the god of this city.

The previous thoughts were verified, and Victor had an inference in his mind as to why he was trapped here. He suddenly opened his eyes and scanned the high priest in front of him and everything around him.

At this glance, Victor saw some bizarre scenes.

First of all, the energy in this high priest's body is very strong! It's like a sun falling in this temple.

This inevitably made Victor feel horrified for a moment, but then he discovered another clue, that is, the golden statue behind the high priest was also dazzling with luck, and all the surrounding qi was flowing into the statue.

The energy poured in from outside the temple, as if all the energy in the city had gathered inside the statue.

The most critical point is that the refracted sunlight that I just saw was not real sunlight, but the Qi collected inside the statue, which entered the body of the high priest through that beam of light.

No wonder this guy's energy is so strong, he's like a god!

"You are not the King of Heroes, you are just a priest, so where is the real king?"

Bang!

The high priest smashed the scepter to the ground again, a fierce light appeared in his eyes.

In an instant, a huge figure appeared from behind the high priest. It was transparent and blurry, with golden light all over. Its image was the same as that of the golden statue.

Victor's expression suddenly changed, and he secretly thought something was wrong: Appearance? Can he actually summon gods?

Although the hexagram just now was slightly sinister, Victor would not have expected it to be so sinister. Suddenly, he secretly made secret gestures, preparing to open the Dumen that had never been used before!

However, the phantom did not attack Victor. The high priest showed a conceited expression, feeling as if he had succeeded in frightening the enemy.

"Witness the heroic appearance of the great race! Mortal, you have offended the wrath of God! Poor rebel, my duty is to deal with people like you, guards, for the great race!"

Following his order, a large number of soldiers rushed in from behind each column, surrounding the entire temple.

It's strange, the gods have manifested themselves, so there is no need for these mortal guards to surround me?

Victor sensed something was wrong. He had really seen an existence as terrifying and powerful as the Crimson King. The pressure it caused was far greater than the King of Heroes summoned by the high priest in front of him.

"Kill him!"

Following the high priest's order, hundreds of guards rushed toward Victor with spears raised.

At this critical moment, Victor decided to test his guess. He instantly dispelled his doubts and made a secret decision to open his own door instead of the other door.

In an instant, everything around him became slow and dull. This was because Shengmen stimulated his potential physique and greatly enhanced his thinking speed.

He did not choose to escape immediately, but rushed directly to the golden statue!

The physical energy activated by the Shengmen far exceeded that of ordinary humans. Everyone in the temple felt a gust of wind blowing past, and Victor came to the eyes of the high priest!

The high priest did not expect that the guy in front of him could explode at such a fast speed. He hurriedly smashed down the scepter. The three-meter-high golden shadow behind him retreated to the golden statue, wrapped it up, and made the statue

The energy is more vigorous.

The high priest saw through Victor's purpose and immediately chose to protect the statue behind him.

A sneer flashed from the corner of Victor's mouth, and his body disappeared in front of the high priest in an instant.

"Where have you gone?"

The high priest looked particularly impatient and nervous, as if he had never seen the world before, and his previous aura was gone.

After searching for Victor to no avail, he suddenly felt a numbness in his waist, and then a man's voice came to his ears.

"Pretend to be a ghost."
