Release that Witch

Roland quickly estimated the size of the underground cave, with a football field at the bottom and a steep mountain wall. The ramp connecting to this is just in the center of the mountain wall. There is a narrow stone ladder next to the hole, which extends downward.

"I guess this ladder is not built out by you," he crouched down and put the torch close to the ground. Under the illumination of the fire, the traces of the axe carving on the stone steps are very obvious, and there are still a lot of stone chips and dust in the marks.

"Of course not, Your Highness, when we found it, the stone steps were already there," Carter shrugged. "I guess this stuff has been around for decades."

"Or hundreds of years," Anna said suddenly.

"I think so too," Lightning nodded. "Bianyi Town has been established for only seventy years, and the stone ladder is unlikely to be related to the locals or the kingdom."

“Is there anyone in the Westland hundreds of years ago?” Carter questioned, “The Grey Fort has not yet been established.”

Roland patted the knight's shoulder. "After four hundred and fifty years ago, there was a group of people who were forgotten by history." Then he raised the torch. "Let's go, let's go down and see."

The first army soldiers have surrounded the bottom of the cave in twos and threes. He walked with the knights and witches to the edge of the stone of punishment. Only when standing at the foot of the stone pillar can he deeply feel the hugeness of the stone. Open your arms, not one tenth of it, you must look up, you can see the top of it, the highest purple stone is close to 30 meters, almost equivalent to a house of eight or nine stories .

In theory, the stone that can illuminate itself is not a radioactive substance, but contains a fluorescent component, but the light of the stone of the gods is obviously irrelevant to the two. The luminescence of the former comes from the phenomenon of air ionization caused by the decay of the element itself, and the shorter the half-life. The greater the brightness. According to the brightness of the light, the soldiers who entered first will not be able to survive the ionizing radiation for a few minutes. The latter needs to be illuminated to illuminate, there is no light source in the depths of the ground, and it is obviously unable to support it to continuously emit cold light.

Roland also noticed that although the stone is a prismatic shape that is common in crystals, the surface has no crystallized lines, but is as smooth as flat glass.

"A thumb-sized stone of punishment in the church can sell several golden dragons, like such a big one... It can simply hollow out the treasury of the four kingdoms." Carter could not help but feel.

"Sold to the aristocrats to kill the witch?" The night gave him a look.

"Oh, I didn't say that," the chief knight unconsciously removed his gaze.

"I was the first time I saw the stone of this color. Shouldn't it be white and transparent?" Lightning curiously looked at the stone pillar. "If you bring a piece back, don't you have a candle at night?"

"I would rather have a dozen candles in the hot room, and I don't want to use it to illuminate," said the nightingale with both hands on his chest. "For the witch, it is a cage, a shackle, an accomplice to the church! If there is no world This **** stone is fine."

"Hey, night sister, you won't read the book anyway at night..." The little girl licked her lips and picked up the stone and looked at Roland. "Can I take a piece back as a spoils for adventure?"

Roland nodded. "If you don't dislike this stuff."

She picked up the stone in her hand and banged **** the corner of the prism. She only heard a crack of "叮", the stone shattered, and there was no scar on the prism.

The Cavaliers couldn't help but scream, "What happened... Are the stones of God's punishment not fragile and fragile?"

"Perhaps this difference in light," the lightning smashed the stone in his hand, and took out the dagger from the pocket, and tossed around the prism, but even if it was used for scraping and cutting, it would still be futile.

Roland felt a bit wrong, he gestured to the night, "Let's try."

The latter nodded, pulled out the revolver and pulled the trigger directly to the other prism. The huge roaring sound echoed at the bottom of the hole, and a few sparking stars emerged from the hit by the stone of the gods. After the smoke was exhausted, the pedestrian walked over and saw that the bullet left only a shallow mark on the surface of the stone.

This means that light has exceeded the homogeneous steel plate in terms of strength.

"The guns are useless?" Carter frowned. "How did the church cut it and polish it?"

No one can answer this question, and this is not with the impression of everyone on weekdays.

At least Roland once used a brick to break the lock of God's punishment, such as the one tied to Anna's neck. Just two or three times, the crystal clear stone can be turned into a white powder.

Anna, who had been silent, suddenly spoke. "His Royal Highness, do you still remember the treasure map drawn by Flint Sunshine?"

"Tibetan map?" Roland groaned. He vaguely remembers that a triangle on the drawing occupies more than half of the area, three points to the holy city of Taqila, the hidden forest stone tower and the end of the northern **** of the mountain ... and so on, the foot of the north slope? Suddenly a flash of lightning in his mind, "Is it..."

"I don't think that point is not pointing to the North Slope mine, but here." Anna slowly said, "This is a cave with a lot of stone of the gods."

......

After a careful search, the cave has not found any other valuable discoveries other than a large pile of indestructible stones.

Not to mention ancient books or wills, even the tools for carving stone ladders have not been left, which is incredible. According to the current state of the art, it is definitely a huge and arduous project to create a ladder on a steep stone wall. Things like accidental fall, lost tools, etc. should be commonplace. But in addition to the stone or the stone, it was as if they had thoroughly cleaned the cave before the evacuation.

When Roland returned to the office, he called the book and reappeared the drawings of the dawn knight on the book of illusion.

Similar to the pattern in memory, the southernmost point does fall at the foot of the northern slope.

If Anna guessed it right, couldn't this be the map left by the church when it was looking for a new stone of the gods? But why did they spend a lot of time to cut out the stone ladder that went straight to the bottom of the hole, but they abandoned everything? If the church established a border church as early as 450 years ago, I am afraid that today’s Bianbu Town will be completely different. According to the price and use of the stone of the gods, this mine is not like Resources that can be discarded at will.

Nowadays, the holy city of Taqila is a forbidden zone that cannot be reached. Maybe these answers can only be answered after going to the stone tower... or never know. (To be continued. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
