Chapter 452: Moon Temple
"This is the ruins of a very small temple, which should have been built by an individual."
Lucelia said.
When Alka went to the Demon Hunting Fortress before, she had already checked here.
As he said this, he led Alka into the ruins.
Although it is a ruin, only the ceiling and outer walls have collapsed, and some parts have been preserved.
When you come to the inner area and step over the ruins, you can see a statue used for sacrifice at the innermost part.
Alka looks at the statue.
This is a faceless goddess holding a round ball.
A full moon and a crescent moon float above the goddess' head.
Alka closed his eyes and opened them, eyes that see through secrets, and looked at the statue.
The sculpture still retains the breath of faith, which can be seen on prayer statues in various churches.
Alka could sense the breath from above, it was very faint, but there was a murmurous sound.
Listen carefully.
It seems to be calling out, and the language used in the name is similar to the moon, which is the language of white crocodile.
On the surrounding walls that have not completely collapsed, there are various murals related to the moon.
“Any interpretation of these murals?”
Lucilia shook her head: "No, mainly because these murals are not coherent, and many of them have been destroyed."
"From the traces of destruction, it can be seen that this temple was invaded. Judging from the traces of battle, it is very likely to be a demon."
Alka nodded. He had also observed this when he came in just now.
But the so-called traces of destruction by demons were not from the invasion of demons thousands of years ago, but this place has become a scar on the world, and was destroyed by a sudden attack by demons.
Then the orange light must be the scepter-level treasure called the Pale Moon here.
But the question is how to obtain it?
The Moon Power, literally speaking, is someone who possesses the power of the moon.
Alka and the others also knew the spells related to the moon, but they seemed to have little to do with the Moon Power Users.
And according to some information about gods that they had seen in the Glorious Library before, there was indeed a god related to the moon in the Golden Age, but this god was also one of the traitors.
Left this world very early.
Obviously, the so-called Moon Power holders are not those who possess the divine power of the moon, nor are they those favored by the Moon God.
But judging from the legend, someone must have taken this treasure and had the basis to use it.
The size of the temple must have meant that there were no fewer than 20 people living here hundreds of years ago.
The ruins of the temple are still there, the treasures are still there, but the people are gone.
That is to say.
"Arka, maybe you should come take a look."
Jason's voice was heard from outside, and Alka heard it and walked out with Lucelia to where Jason and the others were.
This should be the former courtyard of the temple.
Xia Daiti pointed to a small mound in front of him and said, "There is a body in here. Judging from the placement of the bones, it must have been buried."
As he spoke, he pointed to the area next to him.
"They are all over this area. Someone must have buried these bodies."
Hearing this, Alka nodded. That was not much different from what he thought.
The temple was clearly destroyed by a sudden attack, but the treasures are still there.
It is now clearly shown that there are living people in the temple.
The treasure shouldn't be still there. Since it is a temple, perhaps only the leaders of the temple, or the top leaders, know how the treasure was stored.
It is impossible that everyone in the temple knows how to get the treasure.
If the believers here regard the treasure as a gift from God, then they certainly cannot use this treasure anytime and anywhere.
Most of the time it should be enshrined, which is in line with the behavior of a believer.
In other words, if they want to know how to find the hidden treasure, they can only rely on themselves.
“It would be great if we could find this temple alive,” Alka could not help saying.
"But so much time has passed."
Hearing this, Alka felt helpless.
Yes, maybe the living people have already left this place.
Of course, Alka thinks it is also possible that the survivors will go to the front line to fight the devil head-on. This is also a way of revenge, isn't it?
But over the past few decades or hundreds of years, who knows whether this person is dead or has any descendants.
Because Alka wanted to know how the temple worked and how the prayers were performed in the temple. Even knowing some of their teachings would be good.
It is very likely that the way to unlock it lies in these ordinary information.
This is especially likely to be in the form of prayers and some memorial services.
The so-called Moon Power is most likely a term used by the temple itself, and it doesn't necessarily have to be related to the moon.
After thinking about this, Alka turned around and said, "Forget it, let's go to the front line first."
"So which area are you planning to go to?" Xia Daiti asked curiously.
After all, the length of the anti-magic wall on the front line is very amazing, and various fortress nodes are located on it.
"The Demon Hunting Fortress is fine, and the Holy Sword Fortress is fine too," Alka said.
The Demon Hunting Fortress is naturally because Greyfar is there. If I go there to provide support, I can just ask Greyfar some questions.
The reason why the Holy Sword Fortress is so popular is that it is where members of the Church of Our Lady gather. Almost all the powerful members of the Church of Our Lady in the entire world are there.
There is no difference in saying that this is the headquarters of the Church of Our Lady here.
It’s just that Alka prefers to go to the Demon Hunting Fortress. There’s no reason. He just thinks it would be better to go there.
As his strength increases, his eyes that can see through secrets always give him a premonition similar to intuition.
"Let's ask other people later."
As he spoke, he headed towards where the vehicle was parked.
The target was quickly determined.
Go to the Demon Hunt Bastion.
Boarded the truck carrier.
…
The two truck-like vehicles that originally carried them have turned into a pile of scrap metal.
Waku and Kavala were also sent into the space by Alka.
The intensity of the battle was far beyond their imagination.
Pink clouds filled the air and occupied the area.
Alka's figure was walking in this pink mist. His figure could be seen, but in fact, he was hiding in the middle layer of the dream world.
Coupled with the pink mist, very few people can find him in such a situation.
There are a total of three demons in the area covered by the pink mist.
A slender-looking demon holding two short blades in its hands. It was so slender that it looked like it was made of only bones, and its red skin was just covering the bones.
On both sides, there are two powerful demons that look extremely strong, one holding a two-handed axe and the other holding two one-handed axes in both hands.
They looked around vigilantly, guarding against Alka's sneak attack.
Alka looked at the slender and skinny demon. This seemingly weakest demon was actually the most powerful among the three.
By analogy, their strength is equivalent to the sixth stage.
Is a very dangerous enemy.
This time, there were four teams of three demons in total.
The destroyed vehicles not far away were caused by them, and the situation was extremely dangerous.
It can be known that they are coming directly for Alka and the others, but it is unknown why the sixth-stage enemies have rushed behind the city wall.
"Human, I am very happy with what you have done to the Devouring Mouth. Now leave your soul behind and I will be even happier." The slender demon shouted in a sharp and piercing voice.
Because he knew clearly that the three demons were facing only Alka.
The battlefield was divided by these demons at the first moment.
There were sounds of explosions and bombardments not far away; Xia Daiti and his men had already started fighting.
"You are their leader, right? Hiding in this place, listening to the shouts of your own men?"
The slender demon holding two short blades looked at the surrounding fog vigilantly and kept mocking it.
The fog suddenly broke out.
In an instant, the power of dreams began to invade the three demons, and the slender demon broke free in an instant.
It was obvious that they were prepared, but even so, the other two demons were still dragged into the dream.
This kind of thing cannot be resisted without preparation.
Maybe it only lasts a second or two, but it's enough.
In the dizzy moment, a purple-red sharp blade pierced directly through the chest of the burly demon.
It was an extremely destructive attack composed of the elements of wind, lightning, and fire.
The blade formed by the combination of the three elements is nothing but pure destruction.
The demon was dragged into the dream just for a moment when he was awakened by the pain from the outside world, and he roared with blood spurting out of his mouth.
The slender demon figure appeared illusory and slashed Alka with a sword.
At the moment of the chop, another dagger followed and stabbed Alka's body.
"Bang!"
An explosion sounded.
The sturdy demon was directly blown to pieces by the attack that penetrated his body.
Three destructive elements come together not because they blend well, but because they are sufficiently unstable.
The force of the explosion spread to the surroundings, injuring the skinny demon and another power demon.
Alka's figure appeared in the distance, with wounds on his shoulders and arms, and ice crystals spread to freeze the wounds.
One can feel a contamination from the abyss spreading from the wound.
The slender demon just watched Alka in the distance, and once again slipped into the mezzanine of dreams.
"superior!"
With a roar, he rushed towards Alka together with Li Mo.
A knife slashed in the air towards Alka's area, but Alka was not attacked because he was hiding in the mezzanine of the dream.
Several of his attacks hit the air.
"How long can you hide? You've been marked by me."
The slender demon's scarlet eyes stared at the area where Alka was hiding, moving along with Alka's movements.
If Alka dared to leave the dream, he would kill him immediately.
Seeing this situation, Alka stood there without taking any action, but looked at his wound.
The aura of the abyss stained on it indicated that he had been marked.
After preparing for a while, Alka left the mezzanine of the dream directly.
The moment he left, two demons pounced on him.
This time, Alka did not dodge, but rushed directly towards the slender demon who was swinging his sword at him. His sword directly pierced Alka, and Alka's right hand also pressed directly on the demon's chest.
The power in his hand directly penetrated the demon, and then the mixed magic power remained in his chest.
"Bang!"
Strong winds, lightning, and flames spread around with the explosion.
The powerful demon next to him had already chopped Alka with the huge axe in his hand.
"Idiot! He's fake!"
The slender demon, whose body was blasted head-on and had a large chunk missing, cursed. But Alka was not prepared to let him go.
The breath composed of ice directly trapped him and froze him into ice crystals.
An iceberg rose up and froze the two evil creatures inside. The height of this iceberg reached more than ten meters.
Only then did we see that Alka's real body had always been outside the pink mist.
It was not within the clouds at all, and these demons were deceived from the beginning.
Looking at the demon in the iceberg, which seemed to be preparing to escape, Alka took the ice-blue element card and stuck it into the iceberg, causing more icy power to pour in.
It penetrated the iceberg and rushed into the bodies of the two frozen demons inside. The two demons were frozen into ice sculptures visible to the naked eye.
"Why do you think I've been hanging around here for so long?"
These demons are more or less reckless in nature. When they have a specific goal in mind, it is difficult for them to notice another target that is hidden very deeply.
The iceberg exploded, and the bodies of the two demons were shattered into pieces in the explosion.
After making sure that the two demons were dead, Alka quickly stood on the mirror and flew away.
There was another loud bang.
Alka came to another battlefield.
When he arrived here, he had seen several demons lying dead in various places, either embedded in the ground or stuck in the bushes.
Some were even smashed into pulp.
A sixth-stage power demon with huge arms and extremely strong body is colliding with Xia Daiti in power.
But the demon's left arm was completely broken, almost torn off. It could be seen that it was caused by pure force.
Another punch, with a shock wave, pinned the demon down.
The blue meteor hit directly head-on.
The hot blood like lava fell down, and Alka waved his hand to cool the lava-like blood.
Xiadaiti's body was covered in the devil's blood. He took two breaths and looked at Alka who was coming over.
The demon, known for his strength, was crushed in the power contest with Xiadaiti.
Seeing this situation, Alka rushed directly to another place. He no longer needed to worry about Xia Daiti.
A blue meteor slid past him, and Xia Daiti was moving faster.
Looking at the direction Xiadaiti flew, Alka followed closely behind.
The moment he arrived at the battlefield, he gripped the purple chuck hard, and a bolt of lightning struck from the sky.
The direct hit paralyzed a demon and the violent force raged through his body, even causing the weapon in his hand to fall to the ground.
Taking this opportunity, the ball's huge mouth bit the demon's head and digested it.
Then, the ball grew devil horns on its head, a pair of short devil wings and a curved devil tail behind it.
In an instant, Juanlu's strength became strong, and even his skin turned red.
He punched the demon behind him with a backhand punch, and could see that the demon behind him was moving slowly.
It should be that he was affected by one of Juanlu's emotion-affecting balls.
After being hit by a punch, the other ball bit a huge hole in the demon's head and neck.
The headless body fell to the ground.
With the addition of these two people, the tense battle here immediately turned to their side.
Seeing that things were not going well, one of the injured sixth-stage demons simply spread its wings and fled from the spot.
"Damn it!" another demon roared, and was finally overwhelmed by the attack of Alka and the others.
"One ran away."
Xia Daiti looked at the corpses around him, but he could no longer sense where the other demon had gone.
Obviously it's not just about speed.
Alka looked at the crowd, almost everyone had some kind of injury.
Even he himself was injured, although he was not attacked later. But when he was suddenly attacked before, he was still inevitably attacked.
As the demon was destroyed, the aura of the abyss began to emanate from his wounds.
He used the pink mist from his dreams to suppress the breath of the abyss.
A ball of golden water, under Mathilda's control, covered the area near his wound.
This is a healing fluid mixed with the power of the Virgin Mary.
An orange-yellow smell with a sulfuric acid smell could be seen coming out of the wound.
It took a while for the light to dissipate and Alka's wounds to heal again.
Mathilda was already beside the group, treating their wounds.
"Why are so many rushing out all of a sudden?" Jason asked puzzledly as he sat on the ground.
This time, there were a total of four powerful demons of various stages of strength at the sixth level, and eight strength demons of the fifth level.
And until they got close, Alka and the others didn't notice much, and just barely dodged the last attack. Although they dodged most of the attacks, they avoided being hit by some of them.
These demons were obviously well prepared to attack them, and they immediately used their respective powers to divide the battlefield.
The first thing was to drag Alka and Xiadaiti.
Fortunately, although Porro Juanlu's strength is only at the fifth stage, they have a lot of treasures.
Although we may not be able to defeat these demons, it is no problem to hold them back.
Of course, injuries are inevitable in this situation.
Therefore, the injuries of Juanlu and others were slightly more serious than those of Alka and others.
"Okay, let's speed up . The Devouring Mouth must be taking advantage of the intense war and sending out so many demons." Alka said.
Directly constructed a huge mirror.
Dragging everyone away and flying away.
