Chapter 1294: All-Metal Totem Beast
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Wolf King noticed Meng Chao’s gaze.
“Any other questions?” he asked as if nothing had happened.
“Yes.”
Meng Chao pointed to the depths of the fossil forest. “Didn’t you say that all the killing machines here are ‘dead’? Then what is it?”
The Wolf King narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance in the direction that Meng Chao pointed.
Between the jagged remains and bones, he saw dozens of blurry little black dots.
The two of them kept blinking their eyes, adjusting the relations.h.i.+p between the iris, lens, and the optic nerve. As their vision continued to shrink, the clarity of their eyes looking into the distance continued to increase, they saw clearly the true appearance of those little black dots.
They seemed to be… Totem Beasts?
Meng Chao was not too sure.
From the information he had gathered after he came to tulanze, the so-called “Totem beasts”and the “Monsters”of Dragon City had a very strong relations.h.i.+p, and there was not much difference in appearance.
The only difference was that totem beasts ate mandala fruits, roots of mandala trees, other plants that contained liquid metal-like substances, and other totem beasts all year round.
A large amount of liquid metal-like substances would continue to acc.u.mulate in the body of the totem beasts, causing their internal organs, bones, and flesh to gradually show the characteristics of ‘metallization’and ‘crystallization’.
When the concentration reached a certain level, it was possible for it to seep into the surface of the totem beasts’bodies, forming crystal-clear armor that was emitting a metallic l.u.s.ter.
Hunting the totem beasts and extracting the liquid metal-like substances from their corpses was also one of the important ways for the warriors of Tulan to create brand-new totem armors.
However, Meng Chao had heard from ice storm that the most powerful totem beasts, even if their flesh and blood bodies could expand to a height and length of 10 to 20 meters, the liquid metal-like substances that spewed out from their bodies.., could only cover their vital parts and strengthen their claws and teeth. In general, the form of beasts still dominated.
And although these totem beasts in front of them were not big in size.
Compared to the huge corpses next to them, they were at most three to five meters in length and width.
Their bodies were covered with uniform, fine, seamless metal sh.e.l.ls.
From head to toe, they covered every tusk, every claw, and every stinger on their tails.
On the layers of layers of sh.e.l.ls, there were also abstruse and complicated totem carvings. They were surrounded by the seemingly substantial totem power, emitting blazing spiritual flames.
They did not look like wild beasts at all. Instead, they looked like totem warriors who had crawled down and crawled on their joints.
These totem beasts, whose carbon-based biological features could not be seen at all, looked more like indefatigable killing machines. They crawled around in the fossil forest and sniffed the ‘fireworks’that the Wolf King had just shot out vigilantly and excitedly, the remnants of spiritual energy ripples.
The greedy and brutal appearance reminded Meng Chao of the ghosts lingering in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, the ghouls who were always hungry.
“I didn’t expect that the totem beasts here would have such a high concentration of totem power in their bodies. They could grow such gorgeous armor that covered their entire bodies?”
The wolf king mumbled, “However, it’s not surprising if you think about it carefully. This place was the Holy Mountain in the first place, the place with the most abundant totem power, and there were so many corpses of experts and the remains of evil energy puppets.
“Before these remains and corpses are completely corroded by time, they are the best food.
“After devouring the remains and corpses that contain powerful energy, and being able to reproduce on the peak of the Holy Mountain for a thousand years, surviving through the survival of the fittest, the totem beasts that have survived until now are slightly more powerful than the totem beasts outside. What’s so strange about that?
“No matter what, these totem beasts are much easier to deal with than the super giant demonic energy puppets that could self-destruct at any time. What do you think?”
Meng Chao frowned slightly.
The Wolf King’s words could not be miscalculated.
Since they had come to the summit of the Sacred Mountain, no one would expect the place to be peaceful. They would be able to find the legendary “Legacy”without any obstacles along the way.
Just the totem beasts, even if they were covered in totem armor, were easier to deal with than the various troubles that might appear in their expectations.
But before taking action, he still wanted to figure it out. “So, we have to pa.s.s through these totem beasts and sneak into the depths of the ancient battlefield ruins?”
“That’s right.”
The Wolf King grinned, “Don’t tell me you’re regretting it. Allow me to remind you that there’s only one way to enter and exit the summit of the Sacred Mountain. Meanwhile, the Lion King, ‘horn of Destruction’and the Tiger King, ‘Violent Blade’, are leading their furious team along this path and rus.h.i.+ng over with murderous intent. Believe me, you definitely don’t want to meet them on a narrow path.
“If you want to survive, there’s only one choice. It’s to pa.s.s through these totem beasts and enter the Sacred Mountain Temple. Then, you’ll receive the blessing of the ancestral spirit and a huge inheritance. Then, in a fair and square battle, you’ll kill the Lion King and the Tiger King
“I will never regret any choice. I only want to know your overall plan.”
Meng Chao said, “At least, I want to know where the entrance of the temple of the Sacred Mountain is hidden. The peak of the Sacred Mountain is so big, and it has been turned into a complicated maze by this fossil forest. We don’t have to deal with these totem beasts while running around aimlessly in the fossil forest, do we?”
“Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid. Since I’ve risked everything and betrayed the Lion King and Tiger King, of course I know where the entrance to the Sacred Mountain Temple is hidden.”
The wolf king said, “Trust me, you just need to follow me and help me get rid of the totem beasts along the way.”
“That’s the problem.”
Meng Chao said, “The problem is, I can’t convince myself to completely trust you.”
“Alright.”
The Wolf King seemed to have compromised. “In front of us, it looks like a messy fossil forest, but when you step into it, you will soon find countless bottomless holes.”
“I know.”
Meng Chao nodded and said, “This was drilled out by the Army of Holy Light Three thousand years ago to find the whereabouts of the temple of the Sacred Mountain.”
“You are half right. It was indeed drilled out by the army of Holy Light, but it was not to find the whereabouts of the temple of the Sacred Mountain.”
The Wolf King said, “It was used to place powerful crystal explosives and then use a large-scale magic array to connect all the crystal explosives together. Finally, with a boom, the peak of the Holy Mountain and the temple of Holy Mountain were all blown up!”
“Blow up the temple of Holy Mountain?”
Meng Chao sucked in a cold breath.
“Of course. To those lunatics who believe in the Holy Light, the temple of Holy Mountain is the most evil place in the world. They have no right to pollute the soles of their feet. Therefore, they have no interest in entering the temple of Holy Mountain to take a look. It’s better to just blow it up.”
The Wolf King said, “Unfortunately, the priests of the Holy Light and the ninth-circle mages underestimated the st.u.r.diness of the peak of the Holy Mountain. The beastmen warriors also consumed too many crystals and explosives in advance. They were unable to complete the excavation and construction of the super-large magic rune array. As a result, the power of the explosion was much weaker than expected.
“They failed to blow up the temple of the sacred mountain.
“They only cracked the surface of the peak of the sacred mountain and blew up countless stones, which formed the floating stone belt around the peak of the sacred mountain.
“To this day, the surface of the peak of the sacred mountain is still covered in dense, crisscrossing cracks that look like layers of cobwebs.
“When we go deep into the fossil forest, we will find the cracks easily. By observing the direction of the cracks carefully, we will find that the seemingly messy cracks are actually circles after circles — the marks left by the super-large magical rune array three thousand years ago.
“Next, we only need to follow the cracks and find the center of the super-large magical rune array. Then, we will find a bottomless hole that is constantly spurting out magical auras that make the people of Tulan extremely uncomfortable.
“That is the ‘special pa.s.sage’that was blown apart by the army of Holy Light and reached the temple of the Sacred Mountain!”
The Wolf King spoke with certainty.
The crack that was torn by crystal explosives was something that was very easy to verify. There was no need for him to tell a lie that could be exposed in a minute.
This made Meng Chao very puzzled.
Logically speaking, the information that the Wolf King knew about the temple of the sacred mountain should have come from the father of ice storm. More accurately, it came from the memory crystal copy that ice storm’s father had stolen from the Magic Tower of the land of Holy Light.
And according to froststorm, when her mother had intentionally let her father steal the memory crystal copy, she had even tampered with it and deleted a portion of the most crucial information.
In other words, the Wolf King’s understanding of the sacred mountain peak should not be any better than froststorm’s.
But even froststorm did not know that the Holy Light Army was excavating the sacred mountain peak wantonly to bury crystal explosives and build magic rune arrays to blow up the entire sacred mountain peak and the Sacred Mountain Temple.
Where did the Wolf King learn all of this?
“So, other than the memory crystal dungeon that the father of the ice storm brought to Tulanze, ‘Jackal’Ka.n.u.s has another source of information, a more detailed source of information.
“Moreover, from the fact that he successfully obtained the inheritance of the sacred mountain in his previous life, the accuracy of this source of information is extremely high.
“It’s really strange. In the past three thousand years, heroes and heroes have been emerging in Tuilan. If the Tuilan civilization really kept some information about the purification battle and the Final Battle of the Holy Mountain, then the temple of the Holy Mountain should have been reactivated by the heroes and heroes from a thousand years ago. No matter what, it was impossible for it to be sealed until today, which benefited the Wolf King.
“Looking at how familiar he is and how he seems to have victory in his hands, even though the jackal warriors that he has meticulously refined for more than ten years have all been annihilated, his conviction that he must win is still intact. It seems like he has been to the summit of the sacred mountain and even explored the temple of the sacred mountain before.
“However, when he said that the two of us are the first group of people to step onto the summit of the Sacred Mountain in the past three thousand years, it doesn’t seem like he’s lying, and there’s no need for him to lie.
“What on Earth is going on?”
