Chapter 1239: Shock
Su Xiao gestured for Elise to continue. After a moment's hesitation, Elise approached the metal archway.
She smoothed her hair and tucked a lock of hair behind her ears, then said — " It says three, seven, eight, twelve, fifteen on the door.".
It was now obvious to everyone that Elise really knew this ancient language.
— How do you know this language?
— I've seen it in a book, and it's a very ancient undead language. According to the records, this language was used by the undead hundreds of years ago, " Elise replied, reaching out and touching the metal arch. — It's a Shia temple?
Su Xiao looked at Elise out of the corner of his eye. — I read about this temple in a book?
— Elise's eyes reddened again, probably thinking of Goss's death again.
— Which one exactly? Su Xiao didn't believe that some ordinary book could contain information related to such a place.
— I found this book in my father's study. Then I was... well... about ten years old. Later, my father found out that I was missing, locked me in a dark room, and didn't give me anything to eat all day. After that incident, I was forbidden to enter my father's office, " Elise said as she scratched the back of her head, causing her silky blonde hair to become a bit disheveled.
It was the most memorable experience of her childhood.
— How much do you know about this temple?
— I saw a map of this place in that book, and then my father came in. The way we walked reminded me of that map, and that's why I thought we were in a temple.
— Draw it, " Su Xiao said as he took out a pen along with some paper and handed it all to Elise.
— What exactly? Elise asked in an embarrassed tone.
— Map of this place.
— Elise panicked. In fact, she only vaguely remembered the map of this place.
Elise squatted down and looked at Su Xiao, Bubtney, and Amu. Among them, Bubtney was obviously the kindest. As for Su Xiao, Elise felt her legs give out every time he just looked at her. Amu, on the other hand, always seemed to be hungry and ready to eat her at any moment.
— Su Xiao's hand suddenly rested on Elise's shoulder. — And if you've forgotten, I'll help you remember it.".
— How... how? Elise picked up the paper and pen, turned her back on Su Xiao, and pursed her lips, her face seeming to say for her, " What should I do if I've already forgotten this map? Somebody help me, I'll get killed!»
Elise was able to remember this event from her childhood mostly because of this metal arch.
Fortunately, she wasn't completely stupid. She was aware of how dangerous Su Xiao was, so she didn't mention it. Previously, when Goss was by her side, she felt safe, but now that he was dead, she felt as if she had one foot in the grave.
A few minutes later, Elise handed Su Xiao a pen and paper, then swallowed.
Su Xiao picked up a pen and paper. When he saw Elise's "masterpiece", the first thing he thought about was what kind of abstract something he had just seen.
— Are you kidding me? Su Xiao asked and lowered his gaze, causing Elise to take a few steps back, crouching down and holding her head in her hands.
— I really can't remember that map. Don't kill me.
— Hmm, " Su Xiao only replied, turning around and looking at the archway. Elise had said five numbers earlier, and there were small holes at the edges of the arch that might not have been noticed if there weren't huge sun and moon patterns on the arch.
The sun must have marked the beginning and the moon the end.
Su Xiao extended the iron rod towards the third hole above the sun pattern. Only a fifth of the iron rod was left at this point due to the influence of the green flame.
As soon as the green flame approached the third hole, a wisp of green flame was immediately drawn inside the hole.
*Click*
There was a sudden crunch from the archway, as if a lock had been opened inside it.
Su Xiao's eyes lit up and he immediately brought the rod to the seventh hole. The green flame was immediately drawn in and with the same click the second lock opened.
The eighth and twelfth holes were not long in coming, but Su Xiao had to climb up the arch because of its height, since starting from the eighth hole, Su Xiao's height did not allow him to easily reach them.
According to Eliza, there should have been 15 holes after 12, but there were only a few of them 14.
— Su Xiao muttered as he stood in front of the archway and looked at the patterns. If the sun was the starting point and the moon the ending point, then what came after the moon? The answer is the next day.
Su Xiao reached for the first hole.
*Whew~*
Green flames were drawn into the hole and another familiar sound echoed through the area.
*Click*
*Ding... ding-ding-ding...*
Green flames lit up in all the openings of the metal arch, and the fire pattern in the center of the arch turned emerald green.
*Rumble*
The metal doors opened, and the green flames suddenly went out.
When the doors were fully opened, Su Xiao was already holding the Dragon Flash tightly in his hand.
There was a huge open space on the other side, and hundreds of soldiers were waiting for them, watching the archway intently with their green eyes.
Elise's face was pale with fright. She wanted to run away, but her legs were losing strength fast.
Su Xiao grabbed Elise by the collar and threw her to Amu. "Be ready to support me at any time," and quickly walked into the aisle.
— The soldiers roared and rushed towards Su Xiao.
This time, Su Xiao knew that they all shouted " Intruder».
Su Xiao stood motionless in the middle of the archway and carefully scanned the space in front of him. There were about 500 undead in front of him, about 100 of them were shield bearers, about 300 were spearmen, and all the rest were archers.
And behind this army, one creature stood out. It wore no armor, only a shirt and wide leather trousers. The muscles on this creature's body were bumpy and its bald head gave this creature an even more ferocious appearance.
This creature was undead, and it was under five meters tall. In her hands were two iron rods that looked more like two large two-meter-long hammers than iron rods.
Su Xiao immediately took out the Apostle's Eye from his inventory and ordered him to check out the creature.
[
Comparing the characteristics of both sides...
[
Shocking Angel; Musician.
[
Notice: Due to the influence of unknown energy, only the above information was received.
Su Xiao's lips twitched. Apart from the name, the Eye of the Apostle showed nothing. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
The musician didn't rush towards Su Xiao, but only looked at him and gave him a malicious smile.
Although he didn't intend to get close to his opponent, it didn't mean that he would only be watching the show.
Raising his hammers, he slammed them into the air in front of him.
*Boom-boom!*
The drum roll reverberated in all directions, and an invisible drum seemed to appear in front of the Musician, from which a shock wave spread out.
