Steel steam and flame

The next moment, the blazing white light took the shape of a transparent spherical film, expanding in all directions at a visible speed. The cold darkness immediately melted away without a trace, and the thin film that could be discerned by the eyes swept past Li Suman and the twelve others in an instant, and the layers of bone fossils under the spine road finally revealed them completely. Shape.

The blazing white light has completely enveloped the center of the space. The cone-shaped mountain of bones seems to be covered with a layer of white frost. It is also like a silent avalanche, spreading downward from its top and rolling away, gradually revealing its huge accumulation. Bases for various bones.

The base is a round platform carved out, shaped like a tabletop made of glass on a dining table. The base steadily holds up countless bone fossils into a cone shape. As the blazing white light continues to spread, the ground beside the base is illuminated bit by bit.

It was a flat, circular ground. Li Suman and others were watching the surroundings while squinting their eyes slightly to look below. The ring is covered with carved lines, which are ravines that match the area of ​​the ring. They meander and intersect to form a mysterious image, like an artistic portrait.

At each intertwined node of these lines, there is a low stone cylindrical platform with a diameter of tens of meters. Dragon skeleton fossils curled up in a circle are like the guardians of these nodes, sleeping quietly on it. . Rather than being guardians, Lisuman believed that the dragon skeleton fossils were offerings to this cemetery. Because the remains of chains that have been almost completely corroded by time can be observed on every bone fossil.

In the numerous ravines that make up the image, most of the various substances originally used as fillers have dried up and evaporated, but some are still left to this day. Many ravines reflected gray-white light at this moment. Stimulated by the blazing white light, something that had been condensed began to melt and turned into a mercury-like liquid metal form, which began to flow in the ravines.

Dots of light appeared on the flat ring ground, like an inverted night sky, forming a circle around the Skeleton Mountain and reflected in everyone's eyes.

After a few breaths, the flat circular ground finally came to an end. Those intertwined and meandering images now also have boundaries. Not long after, a complete image of a six-pointed star appeared in everyone's eyes with intermittent light. At this time, this underground space finally seemed to be completely illuminated by the blazing white light in the center. In the surrounding field of vision, the complete and huge shell of the rock conch was suspended in the mid-air behind everyone, and next to it, there were six branches of a hexagram. The sharp angle is the starting point, and the road formed by the connection of six spines is shaped like a suspension bridge on the cliff. It is supported by the huge skeleton of an unknown creature and connects to the top of the Skeleton Mountain.

In the blazing white light, a translucent air wave spread down from the top of the Skeleton Mountain. The wind stirred among the accumulated bone fossils, a lamentable sound rose, and the cold air began to heat up.

The danger signals increased, and Li Suman and others were prepared to resist the impact. But the air wave is not without power, it just carries very little power, hitting the face like a dull heat wave before a midsummer rainstorm. The only change was that the light points condensed by the bioelectric induction force field on their fingers were shaped like candle flames one after another, erratic, and even the light in the hands of less than half of them flickered and then suddenly went out.

"Bang!" Someone stepped forward, and with the sound of an air explosion, the twelve people increased their speed one after another, and knocked away the air one after another. With the sound of explosions along the way, the turbulent air walls spread in all directions, and they dragged out the intertwined walls. Twelve air passages rush to the end of the spine road. The whining sounds were even louder now, and the air was the biggest obstacle in Li Suman's eyes at the moment.

However, the twelve people's ears could only hear the sound of wind that was gradually increasing in frequency, but the sound of explosions that broke through the air were completely left behind. The top group of people standing in the empire and even the Three-Phase Continent, as humanoids and steel machines that retain biological forms and characteristics, the speed of any one of them exceeds the speed of sound at this moment. In one breath, they ran one or two kilometers away, and the blazing white light at the top of the Skeleton Mountain was getting closer and closer to them.

Near the top, the temperature rises even more dramatically. After traveling several kilometers, the temperature of minus 230 to 40 degrees has now dropped to around zero degrees. The blazing white light in front of them was gradually analyzed bit by bit by Li Suman and others, and they were able to see more and more clearly what things inside looked like through the endless light.

After a few breaths, everyone ran for more than ten kilometers and finally reached a place not far from the top, which was also the end of the spine road. The temperature is in contrast to what it was not long ago, reaching 70 or 80 degrees. The expanding air formed heat waves that continued to spread around. Not only the surrounding objects, but also their bodies were also coated with a bright white color at this moment. The light falls and hits the body with an illusion of pain.

Squinting their eyes slightly, everyone wanted to see clearly what was inside the white light a thousand meters away. It's just that the light is shaped like a physical object and directly drowns everything within it. Someone jumped forward, hoping to enter the true core of the light, but only after walking a few dozen meters away, the colorless light blue film on their bodies began to shake violently, threatening to break at any time.

He immediately retreated, and the remaining people did not dare to take a step forward at this moment. They looked at each other, as if they wanted to cooperate to explore the inside of the light. But at this moment, the blazing white light began to gradually weaken. The speed was very fast, and the substantial light shrank to tens of meters after one or two breaths. Then, until the strong light shrank to a point that no longer interfered with the line of sight, it converged on the tip of a twisted spear. The vague figure solidified behind the light.

"You'd better stand there honestly." The cold voice was incompatible with the surrounding temperature, but it was intimidating. It came from the front, "Don't forget your original purpose of coming to the cemetery. The mithril in the hexagram below You allocate the metal on your own, as long as you don't forget to leave a reasonable share for the Chiraandi family. As for this, I think you can just watch. If it enters the warning range, we don't know what will happen later. To be honest, , we don’t know the situation of the group leader now, and we have been in this state for a while.”

"Hilda, I didn't expect you to be here long ago." Someone among the twelve people spoke.

But the woman named Hilda did not answer. She stopped looking at the crowd and instead cast her gaze to her side and upwards.

Not far from her was a huge unicorn, covered with rings like tree rings, stacked up layer by layer. The horn is not huge, compared to some of the fossilized bones in the mountain of bones below. Less than a hundred meters long, it is gray-white in color and has a very rough texture. It has also been eroded over a long period of time and has many pits.

This horn belongs to some kind of huge creature. The end of the horn is connected to a hemispherical bone, like the skull of a creature. The horn is tilted at an angle, pointing towards the hemispherical dome of this underground space. At this moment, at the top of the gray-white horn, a girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old was completely frozen by the cold ice crystals. But the girl still has strong vitality, stronger than anyone here. The girl held a long sword with a silver-white blade in one hand and inserted it into the horn. The other hand was placed on a dark blue crystal on the top of the horn that was no bigger than a fist. She seemed to be sensing something. .

Everyone fell silent for a moment when they saw the girl in the ice crystal. Li Suman looked at Dujiao at this time, and she didn't know if it was instinctive. She moved to the side, went behind the others, and hid her figure.
