It was supposed to be standing on a long staircase full of graceful and sweet elves sacrifices, and at this moment was the royal guard wearing power exoskeleton armor.
The soldiers held spears and raised their chins, and welcomed their kings in the most majestic posture.
The surrounding braziers have long been replaced with lighting, and there are bundles of wires of various colors in some corners.
After all, before Chris and Andrea came here, there were countless humans and scientists and scholars of the elves who studied the ancient civilizations of the elves here.
There is no way. On the one hand, the Ailan Hill Empire has been curious about the ancient civilization of the elves for a long time. On the other hand, it is also to prove that the ancient civilization of the elves does not pose a threat to the Ailan Hill Empire.
Chris was not a fool either. At that time, the relationship between the elves and the Iran Hill Empire was far from as close as it is today.
At that time, if you were not careful of the elves, it might have been a real idiotic behavior. Even now, Chris's security consultants still complain about Chris and Andrea's visit to the Moon Temple together.
Of course, Chris felt that the security consultants were too cautious. Although his current magical power was not good at Andrea, he was still confident in protecting himself.
If you were still guarding against the elves and your own women at this time, Chris felt that what his emperor did was too boring.
Despite this, he was ready to make it all. The more than 2,000 guards in the entire Moon Temple were Royal Guards, and even a magician from the elves was not used.
In this case, as long as Andrea does not "kill" Chris in seconds, Chris will have time to retreat to a safe place under the cover of the Guards.
But Chris still believes that Andrea will not treat him like anything - it is a man's intuition, or confidence in his own abilities.
The two of them walked up step by step along the long stairs and walked to the gate of the temple. The stone gate that was supposed to be here could not withstand the test of time, which had collapsed. It may be because of the earthquake or the vibration caused by the meteorite impact.
...
Anyway, in the past ten thousand years, there have been too many damages on the outermost layer of the temple.
The magic defense barrier that was supposed to work normally has long been unable to play any role.
This ten thousand years has been enough to turn too many things into dust: even if a mine of magic crystals is prepared, it cannot support the magic consumption of the Moon Temple over the years.
"The elves in the past... were too obsessed with the pursuit of magic." Andrea said with emotion as he looked at the collapsed and shattered door.
Those magic lamps that should have been bright can no longer work properly, and are replaced by brighter electric lamp lighting.
The corridor and the hall are bright at this moment, because it is still daytime rather than night on the moon.
The moon is not the same as the moon on Earth. It also has a rotation speed, and the rotation speed is the same as the rotation speed of Irancis.
In other words, there is no back of the moon here. The telescope of the Iran Hill Empire can naturally also view the remains of the Moon Temple on the ground.
The difference is that for the elves, they can only look up at the sky and look at the ruins left by their ancestors, and the Iran Hill Empire can be touched...
"The back of this wall... is where the priests once rested..." Andrea said with some sentimental expression at a wall full of mural carvings.
"I've read the report about it," Chris told Andrea. "When our astronauts came here, most of them were still lying on their beds."
"They serve the great moon god with their lives." Andrea also has faith, but compared to the rise of the elves, her attitude towards believing in the moon god is not as pious as those priests.
"If we had such powerful space technology and so many spacecraft at that time, more elves might have survived." She sighed and walked into the huge hall that could accommodate thousands of people.
This is the main part of the temple, which serves as the main role of sacrificing the moon god. The largest sacrificial ceremony of that year was held here.
When the elves were at its peak, the Great Elf King would lead the nobles and officials of the elves to worship the great moon god and pray for the eternity of magic and life.
For a typical immortal species, time has little meaning to the elves, so their understanding of death is obviously different from that of humans.
This can be seen from their books. They have no descriptions like Death. They believe that death is the end of magic, so their desire and pursuit of magic have reached an obsession.
If this were not the case, they would not have studied space magic, and eventually opened up the taboo, triggered disasters, and completely destroyed their homes.
"If they mastered space technology, there wouldn't be so many things that happened later." Chris said with a smile.
He raised his head and looked at the center of the hall, the statue of the goddess of the moon representing the mysterious magic of wisdom and eternity.
Take the technology of the Iran Hill Empire today as an example, this statue cannot be described as spectacular.
After all, the statue of Ronsadelai standing in Calenoc is not much smaller than the statue of the Goddess of the Moon in front of you.
However, the statue in front of me, I don’t know what secret technique I used, but it still maintains a faint magic surge, lifelike.
It is really lifelike, as if this statue has a soul. If Chris prayed to this statue every day, he might believe that there are gods in this world.
It can be imagined that if there were some magic lamps shining around in a magical environment, it might be more beautiful here.
"Her feet... should be full of magical energy, like a pool." Andrea walked to the feet of the statue and looked up at the goddess's holy face.
Chris still maintained his due respect for the goddess. He knew that there was an emperor who teased the statue of the goddess because he had nothing to do and created a war on the world of gods.
So Chris would not have any evil thoughts about the goddess in front of him. He just praised the elves' art to the pinnacle.
Just as Chris was feeling the artistic accomplishments of the elves, Andrea pressed his hand on an ordinary stone, and a magic ripples appeared on the smooth stone.
The next second, a voice sounded behind the two people, causing nervousness to everyone in the hall: "I finally waited for this day... the king of the elf clan... returned here again..."
