As soon as Su Xiao came out of the underground passage, there was a collapse sound from behind.
At this time, he was located in a mausoleum. There were many holes in the surrounding rock walls, which had obviously been visited many times by tomb robbers.
"Meow."
Beni jumped off Su Xiao's shoulder, and after drinking a bottle of potion, its injuries basically recovered, but the blood stains on its hair made it uncomfortable. Beni had a slight mysophobia, and her whole body felt uncomfortable when her hair was dirty.
Penny took out a stone slab and carved five patterns on the ground with her cat's claws. These patterns were: a disk, a scepter, a whip, an ouroboros, and a flame.
Penny stood the stone slab above the Ouroboros pattern. There seemed to be a snake inlaid on this stone slab with irregular protrusions on the surface. It was difficult to tell whether it was carved or a real snake was embedded in it.
.
"You mean that the Ganglu Dynasty was destroyed not because of the construction of the Stairway to the Sun, but because of these five items?"
"Meow."
Penny nodded, and carved a mask above the five patterns on the ground. This mask had a round hole between the eyebrows.
What Penny described at this time was the same as the photo provided by the philosopher, and the location in the photo was the place where all the contractors of the Holy Paradise died tragically. The priest did not know what he did there.
Su Xiao picked up the stone slab on the ground and the prompt appeared.
[You obtain the Ouroboros Slate (this is a special item and cannot be taken away from this world). 】
[Tip: This is a key item for the Hunter’s ‘eighth-level promotion assessment mission’. 】
[Tip: After the hunter’s promotion assessment task is activated, you will be sensitive to such items.]
[Because the Hunter has obtained the Ouroboros Slate, after the promotion assessment mission is activated, you will no longer be able to perceive such items. You could originally perceive the 'Heart Flame', which is located in the Smoke City and is a black tower.
Organization owned.]
…
Seeing these prompts, Su Xiao thought of many things. His initial force was the Black Tower. There was a reason for this. If he won the battle for the world, he would then contact the Black Tower organization to obtain the 'Heart Flame'
.
There is a huge connection between the Ouroboros Tablet, the Heart Flame, the Sun Disk, a scepter, and a thorn whip.
Su Xiao didn't think about these things. He wanted to win the battle for the world first. If the battle for the world was lost, there would be no point in collecting all five items.
Su Xiao checked the kill prompt and found that he had obtained 67 points of Samsara Paradise Merit, plus 31 Scarlet Merit.
There are a lot of Scarlet Honors obtained. If you kill a seventh-level contractor, you can probably get about 1 to 3 Scarlet Honors.
The current number of Scarlet Orders has reached 188, which is still far from the 400 that can be exchanged for [Reverberation (Scarlet Weapon)]. Considering that the decisive battle in the ancient capital is about to begin, as long as they are not besieged to death, there will be no shortage of Scarlet Orders in the future.
Xun.
Compared with the Scarlet Merit, Su Xiao received much less merit from the Samsara Paradise, only 104 points. This is normal. He had been competing with eighth-level contractors before, and the Scarlet Merit obtained by killing those eighth-level contractors
The meritorious service is much higher than the meritorious service of the reincarnation paradise.
"Meow."
Beni screamed, which means that it will continue to explore in this mausoleum. If it finds important information, it will be sent to Su Xiao through the team channel.
As Beni interrupted the [Stone of Shelter]'s ability, a pulling force came, and a spatial crack appeared behind Su Xiao.
After a short period of darkness, Su Xiao returned to the first floor of the Temple of the Sun. Bubuwang was looking around at the door, while Baha and Ammu were searching inside the temple.
On the first floor of the Temple of the Sun, there are dozens of stone pillars, which are suitable for ambushes. Our contractors use these stone pillars as bunkers and focus their firepower on the main entrance. The metal door there can be destroyed, but the walls cannot.
Following the stairs on the side of the hall, Su Xiao went up to the second floor. There was a passage several meters wide in the middle of the second floor. On both sides were rooms without doors, with mist floating inside.
After Su Xiao took a few steps forward, a pulling force came from his side. His eyes blurred, and he was located on a circular stone platform.
This stone platform was about 100 meters in size and was circular in shape. When it came to the edge, Su Xiao saw the darkness that could not be seen to the bottom. If you fall from here, there will definitely be no good end.
Su Xiao could feel that he could leave this place at any time, but if an enemy entered here, he would not be able to leave. Only one of them would die before anyone could leave.
Space fluctuations appeared, and Su Xiao appeared on the second floor of the temple. He looked at the doorless rooms on the left and right sides. There were 50 rooms in total. Each room was a fighting arena. As long as two hostile people entered, they must die.
Only one can come out.
This was originally a place used by the Ganglu Dynasty to test the 'Sun Warriors'. Only by passing these 50 trials can one become an official Sun Warrior.
Assume that you have 50 contractors in these 50 rooms. Enemies passing by these doorless rooms will immediately be pulled into them for a 1-on-1 forced duel.
Su Xiao moved forward. Every few steps he took, he would suddenly disappear and then reappear. When he reached the innermost side of the second floor, he raised his hand and pressed on a hexagonal pattern, and the space mechanism on the second floor was temporarily closed.
Thinking about it, the lunatics on our side will definitely be filled with joy after knowing that such a place exists, but who will get these 50 places is a big problem, which will be solved later.
Following the stairs to the second floor, Su Xiao arrived at the third floor. There was nothing on the third floor.
Su Xiao took out a piece of clothing and threw it, and a large number of raised crystals appeared on the wall.
Zhi~
A series of blazing golden lasers appeared, which were beams produced by gathering sunlight. These finger-thick solar beams swept across the three floors randomly, and it took dozens of seconds to subside.
Seeing this scene, Bubuwang swallowed his saliva. The intensity of those sun beams just now was beyond even Eminem's strength. If he was in these solar beams, within 2 seconds at most, Eminem would be chopped into pieces and then burned into pieces.
ash.
[Tip (Tree of the Void): The Sun Protection is being generated...]
A circular mark appeared on the back of Su Xiao's hand. The surrounding sense of crisis was eliminated. He stepped forward without triggering the mechanism here.
This is the advantage of seizing the core of the world first. After passing the third floor, Su Xiao arrived at the fourth floor. As soon as he entered the fourth floor, he immediately returned.
Within the fourth floor, the whole place is in the shape of a staircase, with blazing red humanoid shadows appearing. These shadows are holding translucent bows and arrows. They draw their bows at the same time and shoot out beams of sunlight.
Ding, ding, ding...
Hundreds of sun beams hit the wall, making a metallic impact sound. After no longer sensing the breath of living creatures, these 102 humanoid shadows disappeared.
The fourth layer of defense seems powerful, but for contractors, it is at best a deterrent and will be broken down in a short time.
The mark of 'Protect from the Fierce Sun' on the back of Su Xiao's hand has been improved. After he walked into the fourth floor, he no longer triggered the mechanism here.
When we get to the fifth floor, there are no defense mechanisms here. There are many walls of uneven heights throughout the fifth floor. Some are only half a meter high, and some are more than four meters high. This is a melee zone.
After arriving on the sixth floor, there are many stone sculptures erected here. They are just ordinary stone sculptures. They are not blessed by unknown energy and can be easily broken.
Su Xiao walked to the steps of the sixth floor and found an ancient text written on the wall above. Because he had mastered the temporary common language, he understood what this ancient text represented.
'There is no way out, intruders will die.'
Su Xiao stepped onto the stone stairs and walked into the seventh floor, entering the highest floor of the Temple of the Sun.
[Tip (Tree of the Void): You have reached the designated defense area. 】
