Chapter 578 Chapter 578 – Ruins
“It’s still not safe enough…”
Another priest interrupted and said, “Why don’t we give it to our church, and we guarantee that we’ll completely excavate this ruins within a month?”
“We only need twenty days.”
“Our Church…”
In the small tent, the scope of the discussion was particularly lively. The priests, who were usually solemn and represented their respective gods, were now speaking loudly.
They were discussing intensely, just like ordinary people. They were constantly arguing and did not look like priests at all. Looking at the lively scene in front of them, even Orith, sitting on the side, was eager to give it a try.
“Our Church of Darkness also has a way to sneak in. We can avoid those restrictions and directly sneak in…”
He thought for a moment and then said this, trying to attract Chen Heng’s attention.
After the Lord of Darkness entered the foreign world, Orith was the representative of the Lord of Darkness to Chen Heng. After a long time, the Church of the Lord of Darkness did not have many forces left. Orith was the representative, the most powerful one among them.
Therefore, he represented the power of the Lord of Darkness and became the representative of the Church of Darkness under Chen Heng.
Although the whole Church of darkness was only a small group so far, and there were not many decent priests other than Orith, this did not change the nature of the church.
At this moment, there was naturally a chance to speak up and fight for his merits.
“Your Majesty, if necessary, I can completely lead the soldiers to dig out the ruins under the ground.”
Beside him, Hedoxili and Lamu had respectful expressions. At this moment, they also interrupted and said, “I think it should be easier to find the entrance after digging out the entire ruins.”
Chen Heng nodded and then stood up. As he stood up, the lively debates around him immediately stopped. The people around him revealed looks of anticipation. They all looked at Chen Heng in front of them as if they hoped that Chen Heng would choose them to carry out this mission.
“What everyone here said makes sense…”
Standing in the same place, facing everyone’s gazes, Chen Heng pondered, then said, “Since we can’t convince each other, we might as well try one by one.
“As a divine artifact, the Eye of Nature is the last resort.”
He looked at Orson’s position and then said. No matter what, some of the priests present had a point. Using the Eye of Nature was indeed a little too powerful, and it would cause a huge commotion.
If things go wrong, it might alert the own existences in the surroundings and cause a change. After all, there were still the forces of the Centaurs and Kobolds in this desert.
The Kobolds were still fine. After all, as the King of the Kobolds, Karuna was essentially Chen Heng’s backup. But the Centaurs were very troublesome. After all, there was still an evil god with the Centaurs. If it was not good, there might be a problem.
To prevent this possibility, he’d rather not use the Eye of Nature if he could. Thinking of this, Chen Heng pondered and then issued orders.
He decided to try a few more options. In any case, the methods of these church priests before him were not improved. There was no reason only to use one.
It would be better to attack together from all sides. This might be able to speed up the excavation of the ruins by a lot. Thus, under Chen Heng’s orders, the priests in front of him began to move.
Some priests used their own church’s secret treasures to look for flaws in the ruins. Some people used secret arts to dissolve the restrictions slowly. Some people even tried to sneak in.
Even Hedoxili and Ramu led their soldiers to dig around. For a moment, the scene in front of them was especially lively. But reality proved that most people’s methods were not very effective.
“No, the restrictions in these ruins are too powerful, and the excavation speed is too slow…”
A priest from the church shook his head, his face pale. Orith, who was standing beside him, was also pale. At this moment, he had crawled out of the ground.
Just now, he had tried to use the god power of the Lord of Darkness to sneak into the ruin, but the god power had suppressed him in the ruin. He had almost been unable to come out.
He was not the only one. The other priests around him also had ugly expressions on their faces. Before the ruins in front of them, their methods did not seem to be used. They could not break through in a short period.
This result surprised everyone present. “This ruin is not an ordinary Demigod ruin!”
After resting for a while, Orith’s expression became a little better, at this moment, he said with certainty, “The reaction of the divine power inside is too strong. It should not be like this if a fallen god set it up.”
Although Demigod relics were rare and considered extremely precious, it was not that they had not been discovered in the history of the origin world.
Generally speaking, if a relic set up by a dying Demigod were weak before death, its strength would not be too high, even though it could block mortals and even Legendary beings. However, it could not stop the church priests who could borrow the power of gods.
However, the situation before them was different. There were so many priests present, and they had used all kinds of methods, but they still could not understand the foundation of this ruin. They could not see through it at
all.
This was not something that an ordinary ruin could explain.
“The owner of this ruin may have set it up when he was at his peak strength. Otherwise, it would not be so impenetrable.”
Beside him, Orson also sighed and said. During this period, he had also been searching around. In the end, he was also shocked by the amazing defense of this ruin. He felt that it was somewhat unbelievable.
“It seems that this ruin is different from other
places…”
Chen Heng was very interested in standing on the spot, listening to Orith and Orson’s words. He did not blame the priests before him, nor was he too anxious.
After all, he knew that the priests had already done their best in front of him. It was useless to continue blaming them. It would only cause the hearts of the people to be scattered.
