Chapter 10 The Underground Urn(1/2)
Tick!
A drop of water dripped from the cracks of the rock, hitting the broken stone corridor, and smashing to pieces.
This is a dark corridor, to be precise, half of which has been broken and collapsed, replaced by a slightly smooth hole.
These are the traces of the devouring soil worms walking. After Parr and the other four walked into the hole for several hours, they finally found this corridor that was built in unknown time.
“Finally found.”
Karina was the highest among the four. She walked in the middle holding a high-quality glowing crystal, illuminating the underground space that had not seen the light of the sky for a long time.
Parr and the other two came to the corridor, stepped on the somewhat wet stone floor, and began to observe the half of the wall intact, with some murals vaguely carved on it.
“These seem to be war scenes.”
Parr widened Ming's pupils, and his extraordinary vision allowed him to see every detail of the mural. Although time had worn away these murals, he still saw the contents on the murals.
On the black ground, all kinds of blurred villains were fighting fiercely with all kinds of black shadows, and several balls of light were floating in the blood-red sky, confronting several tall black shadows flying in the sky.
“I seem to have seen murals of this style.”
Ah Wang suddenly said this, but then there was no further text. The other people who were curious about it couldn't help but ask.
"What?"
"I remember……"
Ah Miao frowned and fell into memories. It was when she was a child. Once she sneaked into the royal treasure house and saw a row of paintings with different periods and different authors on the walls of the treasure house.
If those paintings were thrown outside, they would definitely cause crazy robberies from various nobles, and then use them as capital to show off their family wealth and long history.
The arrangement of those paintings is very regular. The deeper you go to the treasure house, the longer the history of the painting will be.
Awang walked to the depths of the treasure house and saw several strange paintings.
What a tall building, a carriage flying everywhere in the air, a continent floating in the air... Among them is a painting of a group of humans fighting with a group of black shadows. There are black shadows covering the sky and sun floating in the air on the black shadow side, and giant wolf of the same size stands in the air on the human side.
“It really seems…”
Awang came back to his senses from his memories, shook his head at Parr and the others, and said that he didn't know what the drawing was on it, and only knew it was related to the disaster a thousand years ago.
"Damn it?"
Parr muttered, and then the four of them rested in the corridor.
...
"Let's go ahead and take a look."
After resting for more than an hour, the four of Pal set off again, and they picked a direction and continued to move forward.
Unfortunately, Parr and the others seemed to have chosen the wrong direction. After walking in the dark underground corridor for more than two hours, they suddenly found that the road ahead was blocked by the collapsed mud.
“Meow…”
Ah Miao stopped dejectedly, and her face no longer had the enthusiasm he had just come down. Karina and Ah Wang were similar, but it was not as obvious as Ah Miao.
Alas~
"I originally wanted to feel the interest in exploring the unknown."
Only Parr sighed helplessly, then took out the orb staff and poked it on the ground. In an instant, the scene within a hundred meters around appeared in Parr's mind. He found that there was indeed no way ahead, but...
Parr, who had turned around and walked suddenly, walked for about twenty steps, stopped in front of a wall in the underground corridor, reached out to wipe the black plants that looked like moss, revealing the shape of a door frame.
"Ah Wang, blow it away!" Parr turned his head and said to Ah Wang who was rushing toward him.
Awang did not take action immediately, but looked at Parr with a suspicion: "How did you find this door?"
Parr smiled and shook his head: "Secret, can't be told."
Having said that, Awang and Karina's eyes had shifted to the orb staff, thinking that it must be the effect of this thing, and then the two women thought of Pal's record of winning cards.
"Little Pal."
Karina smiled gently and said, "You can't use this staff when playing cards in the future!"
"Hahaha."
Parr scratched his hair and whined haha, without responding directly, then moved out of the position and raised his hand to signal Awang to hurry up.
"Look at mine."
Awang looked at the stone gate in front of him and felt a little excited. This was the ruins she imagined!
call……
The wind gradually rose, and then it gathered on Awang's small fist.
Bang!
With a punch, the stone door that had been covered in dust for a long time shattered, and a wet air came to his nose with the breaking of the stone door.
Karina raised the glowing crystal and shone it inside. The people present saw that this was a small room, one corner of which had been broken, a stream flowed from there to the ground, and then flowed from several cracks on the ground to some unknown place.
After taking a look, the four of them no longer paid attention to the source of moisture in the air, but instead focused their attention on the objects in the room.
There is a statue in the middle of the room, a female elf statue with both magnificent angles, but the statue is missing arms and legs and is on the brink of breaking.
Bang!
Perhaps it was the impact of the broken stone gate. Before Parr and the other four entered, the statue's head fell to the ground and fell into pieces.
"Meow!"
Ah Miao, who was looking at other places, was startled.
"It's just a broken statue."
Parr patted Ah Miao's head and walked into the room with her hand.
Karina and Awang followed closely, and then the four of them set their eyes on the other three walls of the room.
After a closer look, the wall was covered with square holes of the same size, and stone boxes of the same size were placed in it.
“What are these?”
After confirming that there was no danger, the four of them walked to the wall on the right. Parr took out a stone box from the entrance of a square hole and looked down. He was stunned for a moment.
"Uh... this seems to be an urn!"
...
It was a bit unlucky. The first room I found when I explored the ruins was filled with urns. Why did Parr confirm that it was an urn before he opened it? Because the lid of the stone box was written in elves words: To the elves warriors who died bravely in the battle of defense of the Holy City, may you get eternal peace in your mother's kingdom of gods.
The lowest point is the time: the eighth day of the September 14th year of the Demonic Disaster.
“These are…”
Awang and Karina also recognized the text of the elves. They checked the stone boxes in the other caves and confirmed that these stone boxes were all urns, and the time marked on them was the eighth day of the September 14th year of the Demonic Disaster, but the races described in the text above were different. In addition to the elves warriors, there were also humans, dwarves, and seas...
It is obvious that these are the same group of soldiers who died in the battle to defend the Holy City.
"I want to take them out."
As Princess Fenglang, Awang obviously knew some of the major disasters a thousand years ago. She couldn't bear to see these heroic soldiers who died in battle were buried here unknown, so she carefully put away the urns with storage utensils.
"Meow, come and help you."
Ah Miao jumped out the first time to help his good friends collect urns. Pal and Karina also came to help when they saw this.
...
Bang!
A light sound attracted Parr's attention. When he turned around, he saw Karena scratching her face embarrassedly with a broken urn. It turned out that she wanted to take the urn under a broken corner in the corner of the room. Unexpectedly, the urn there had been eroded by the water flow and became broken as soon as she was picked up.
So, the bottom of the urn in Karena's hand fell off and hit the ground and made a sound.
“Huh?”
However, what fell out of the broken urn was not the ashes, but a golden gem necklace.
“What’s going on?”
Several people gathered over, and Karina picked up the gem necklace and observed it. Finally, she saw the name of the necklace owner behind the necklace pendant, just like the slightly blurred name on the broken urn.
"No ashes but only items, shouldn't it..."
For some reason, Parr always felt that this was not an isolated case, so he carefully opened another urn.
There is not ashes inside, but a small black iron statue.
After that, the four people opened more than a dozen urns, without exception, all of which were small objects, and all the small objects were engraved with the owner's name, just like the name of the victim on the urn.
“…”
There is no need to open it anymore. Pal and the others estimated that the same was true in other urns, which made them feel heavy. They were all thinking about what kind of battle it was that made these victims not even have bodies left?
"etc!"
Parr suddenly thought of a possibility, so he quickly picked up an urn and opened it, looked at the name on the small object, and then looked at the name on the urn.
"this……"
To be continued...
