Two hundred and eighty third transmission treasure box
The sleeping giant's head suddenly tilted, and his body that had maintained a certain degree of tension immediately collapsed. The last breath of his soul was swallowed up by the scarlet flames. The soul fire in his eyes was extinguished and replaced by scarlet.
Flames rose up, pouring out from the helmet of the black-armored giant, outlining a graceful figure in the air.
Nik Reimu slowly landed on the ground, his body a little messy, and his face had obvious scratches. Because the wound affected his right eye, he closed one eye.
After coming out, she immediately looked for Aaron.
"Yo." Aaron suddenly appeared from beside her.
Hirimu was obviously startled, her body trembled, and she raised the sword in her hand halfway before she realized it was Aaron.
"Please don't scare me." Hirimu said softly.
"I'm sorry, you came out earlier than I thought." Aaron stretched out his hand to caress Hirimu's face.
Nichireimu didn't move, and stared blankly at Aaron's movements. Aaron's hands were very warm, and his skin was very elastic. Before Nichireimu could feel it, a white light lit up, and his face hurt from a serious scratch.
The wounds slowly faded away.
Ri Lingmeng opened his mouth and finally said: "My body will recover on its own soon. It's just a minor injury."
"But it's faster to be healed by me, isn't it?"
"...Hmm." Ri Lingmeng was speechless.
Aaron smiled and shrugged, put away the giant's body at his feet, then turned and walked towards Shenchu, the room guarded by the giant: "There is a treasure chest there, why don't you come and open it?"
Ri Lingmeng's eyes narrowed slightly and he immediately caught up with Aaron's pace.
The style of the treasure chest hidden deep in the room is no different from the usual style of treasure chests in the City of Mist.
Standing in front of the treasure chest, Riremeng's eyes turned to Aaron.
Realizing Nichiremu's thoughts, Aaron smiled and said: "If you want, you can unbox it yourself."
Hirimu blinked, his head clicking at a faster rate, and then he came to the treasure chest.
The value of the treasure chest is somewhat linked to the monster guarding the treasure. This is what Nichiremu concluded through limited encounters today.
The black-armored giant outside is very powerful. Even if she pulls the opponent into a dream that is beneficial to Nikki, she is still in danger. Even if she has a trace of the will of the dead, she still has courage that cannot be underestimated.
So Nik Reimu thought that a treasure chest that could be guarded by such a warrior would probably contain good things.
It would be great if it could make Aaron happy.
Although Aaron is very knowledgeable, it is rare to see Aaron being particularly happy because of something. We can only occasionally catch a glimpse of him when he eats delicious food or takes care of them.
Nichiremu touched the treasure chest with both hands and opened it with a little force.
But inside was not the imaginary treasure, but a ball of lavender smoke that suddenly spurted outward.
Hirimu was about to pull away immediately, but a layer of ritual lighted up around the treasure chest, causing her body to freeze for a moment. It was this moment of stiffness that made her completely enveloped in smoke, and then her eyesight went dark.
…
There was a dull sound in my ears, like thunder, coming from a distance and maintaining a certain frequency.
Where is this?
Hirimu opened her eyes.
"Are you awake?" Aaron looked at her with a smile.
"Master...this is?" Rirei Meng was puzzled.
She felt that the ritual just now was not very powerful, and it could be combined with the rapid spray of smoke to trick her, but if she had expected it, she would not be trapped.
Aaron is so powerful. Not only can he predict the contents of the treasure box in advance, he can also easily break the ritual and block the smoke.
"That treasure box is a hidden teleportation ritual." Aaron explained.
"It's not a treasure, you already knew it a long time ago." Nichireimu's expression dimmed. Although there was no obvious expression, He was obviously a little disappointed.
"No." Aaron shook his head and said with a smile, "Really, this is the biggest gain today." As he said that, he raised his finger and pointed to the sky behind him.
Ri Lingmeng followed his instructions and followed his instructions, and then his breath froze.
A huge creature, the pitch-black skin on the surface of its body was like an indestructible hard stone, constantly rising and falling with the sound that she thought was thunder before.
It's breathing, this thing is breathing.
The thing in front of me is not a mountain, but a living creature!
"Is this?" Although she was shocked, except for the slight trembling in her voice, Nichiremu still didn't show much of her emotions.
"A Titan I don't recognize either." Aaron said.
He has indeed not seen all Titans. Not all Titans have the same range of activities as humans, and only Titans with sighting records will be recorded. As for how many Titans there are, it can't be seen without using some special powers.
It's really hard to explain clearly.
Merlin has quite a lot of research in this area. According to him, there is a hidden Titan continent on the golden continent. The ecology there is quite primitive and it is the hometown of Titans.
Aaron knew that Merlin's words had a lot of credibility, but after all, they were just Merlin's words, and there was no more evidence to prove it.
The reason why Aaron believes in Merlin is because Merlin is actually the child of a Titan.
A child of a titanic beast called "Lilith" that only exists in records and is described as having no physical form and swimming in the sea of clusters of consciousness.
"Titan." Rireimu was silent.
Nichireimu had also heard about the existence of this huge beast from the descriptions of Xing Liuli and Yue Tomb.
This kind of thing should be the existence that humans called giant beasts in that ignorant era.
At that time, many humans regarded the Titans they saw as gods.
But under normal circumstances, whether a Titan's temper is gentle or violent, one thing they have in common is that they will not pay enough attention to creatures whose life essence is lower than themselves.
Even those who believe in Titans get no response, and there are many cases where people turn over in their sleep and crush all their "believers" to death.
"Then, where is this?" Ri Lingmeng began to observe the surroundings.
The two of them were on top of a building that clearly bore traces of civilization, but the building was quite large, as if it was built specifically to accommodate this Titan.
"It's still within the Chaos Vision known as the City of Mist, but it's far away from the distance just teleported away, and it's not inside the city. It should be in a corner of the wasteland outside the city." Aaron said.
As he spoke, he turned his gaze and came to the edge of the towering platform.
Looking out from the edge of the platform by sight alone, one can only see a vast expanse of white mist.
Looking down, you cannot see the earth, and it is difficult to estimate how far this towering "palace" is from the ground.
Ri Reimu got up, came to Aaron's side and looked around with him, but couldn't see anything.
However, her special senses can bring much more.
"There are many conscious individuals under the fog, with active spirits and different strengths and weaknesses. They are different from the undead existences I have seen before." Ri Lingmeng reported what he noticed to Aaron.
Aaron nodded and walked around the edge of the platform with Xing Liuli.
Soon, they discovered ancient stairs with various damages. However, the scale of the stairs was the same as the building. It was also very wide. For humans, each step required a huge jump.
Obviously this ladder was not designed for humans.
In extremely low visibility, the stairs extend downward into the depths of the mist.
"Are you going down?" Ri Lingmeng asked.
Aaron shook his head and turned to look at the huge figure behind him: "Take a look at this thing first."
As he spoke, he continued to walk around the edge, relying on his vision to gradually outline the outline of the giant beast.
It has four limbs, the hind limbs are thick and short, and the forelimbs are long and thick, but one of them is broken, with burn marks on the wound.
Seeing this wound, Aaron frowned slightly.
The injury still has an impact after an unknown amount of time, and you can even see little golden sparks in the scorch marks, which continue to corrode the wound.
This doesn't mean anything, after all, there are so many gods that can achieve this effect.
However, Aaron felt a heavy weight from the golden sparks on the wound.
He was a little surprised.
This weight carries the weight of a place’s history and time.
History and time should have continued to flow and be passed on backwards, but this breath is different, it is destruction and severance. The reason why it is thick is because a period of history was cut off at the source of Mars.
Confirming this unexpected discovery, Aaron frowned slightly.
