The design of the temple looked a little strange. All Li Huailin could see was a roof. When he got closer (mainly because of the light), he realized that the rest of the temple was buried in the mountain wall behind it. The only protruding path was also a little strange.
After taking a closer look, Li Huailin realized that the temple didn't feel like it was built and then buried into the ground. After all, the surrounding rocks were very hard. It was almost impossible for it to be excavated on a large scale. It shouldn't have been built directly into the rock wall. It was obvious that digging a hole in the rock and then building a temple was quite stupid. The current situation felt like someone had used a Teleportation spell to teleport this thing here after the temple was built. Then, a part of the temple directly replaced a part of the rock, which led to the current situation.
Li Huailin didn't want to know what was going on. Soon, Li Huailin followed the path to the roof in front of them. There was a small drop between the path and the roof. Of course, it wasn't a problem for them.
"Oh my god … this is a miracle!" Misters shouted in surprise. Of course, he had never seen a building like this, and it was built in a cave. He was completely shocked.
"It really is a miracle." Li Huailin facepalmed. After all, this thing was called a temple. After saying that, Li Huailin turned to look at Chief Ke Sailuo, who pointed to the side. Li Huailin walked over to take a look and found that there was a very narrow path down the side. Of course, it should have been built at the back to make it slightly more convenient to go down. It wasn't built by the Lookout.
Of course, it was convenient, but safety was not considered. It was very dangerous to go down. If they were not careful, they would fall into the bottomless abyss. Of course, it wasn't a threat to Li Huailin's group.
Soon, they went from the roof to the temple below. It was another amazing scene. Li Huailin saw that half of the temple was covered in rocks. This also confirmed Li Huailin's guess that this thing was directly transported here. In the part of the temple that wasn't covered, Li Huailin clearly saw something that looked like a huge torch basin.
"This is the place to activate the entire temple," Ke Sailuo said and pointed to the torch basin.
As they spoke, they walked to the side of the torch basin. Li Huailin observed it for a while. The torch basin didn't look very special, except for its size. He estimated that the diameter of the torch basin was at least six meters, but it was relatively short. The highest part only reached Li Huailin's waist. There was a depression in the middle, and in the center, there was an obvious bright spot that seemed to be embedded with some kind of gemstone. Next to the bright spot were three long white sticks. The three sticks were intertwined like a tripod. Now that he looked at it again, Li Huailin felt that it looked a bit like a satellite antenna.
"According to the records of our ancestors, as long as you put the key on it, the entire temple will be activated," Ke Sailuo said as she pointed to the tripod.
"Looks like this activation method is relatively simple." Li Huailin nodded and said, "Then why didn't the Colomecus activate this thing before? Don't they have the key?"
"According to the teachings of our ancestors, the temple can't be easily activated. But now that the Colomecus are facing a disaster, we are taking the risk to activate it," Ke Sailuo said immediately.
"Teachings of our ancestors?" Li Huailin spread his hands. He didn't believe such a nonsensical reason at all. The golden eyeball had always been in the hands of the Colomecus, and before the temple was activated by the God of Gods, it had always been near where the Colomecus lived. Theoretically speaking, the Colomecus were living a very hard life before the arrival of the White Dragon Eofam. According to Eofam, the Colomecus were almost wiped out, so why didn't they want to activate the temple at that time? That doesn't make sense.
"Could it be … it's not that they don't want to activate it, but that they can't?" Li Huailin suddenly had an idea. That's right, he remembered something. It was the situation when the Colomek village chief handed him the eye. When the village chief held the eye, there was no movement at all. After that, he handed it to Eofam, and even after injecting mana into it, there was no movement at all. It was only when he handed it over to Sheyan that the eye was bound to him, and the eye opened. Could it be that the Colomek people could not activate the key at all, so they could not activate the temple?
"Then, the God of Gods …" This explanation could be explained, but the God of Gods sounded strange. However, after giving it some thought, Li Huailin had already suspected the identity of the God of Gods. Currently, he was suspecting either Zhang Youdong or Petrell. So, could it be that only players could activate this thing?
Although he wasn't too sure about this theory, Li Huailin felt that it was a reasonable guess. As for the actual situation, Li Huailin decided to give it a try.
As he spoke, the village chief Ke Sailuo and the others began to move. That's right. Their purpose in coming here was to try activating the temple. Of course, they would use the key that Misters had modified to be able to emit laser beams. While Li Huailin was deep in thought, Ke Sailuo took the key from Accra and used magic to control it to fly towards the center of the brazier. Beside her, Misters also began to observe carefully. Regardless of whether they succeeded or not, it was an important experiment for him.
Ke Sailuo's control allowed the eyeball to fly smoothly to the tripod. Even Kema was surprised by her magical control. After all, Ke Sailuo wasn't a Saint-tier Mage yet. It was already shocking enough that she could control magic like this. If she wasn't too old, she might have a chance of advancing to the Saint-tier.
Very soon, the eyeball was placed on the tripod. However, there was a slight problem. Because Misters added a ring of metal around the eyeball, the size of the eyeball was slightly larger. There was a circular hole on the tripod that could fit an eyeball, but it was obviously stuck. Ke Sailuo thought for a while and came up with a compromise plan. She placed the eyeball slightly higher on the top, and the position of the eyeball was still facing the center of the pearl through the middle of the ring.
"This should work." It was the first time Ke Sailuo faced such a situation, so she wasn't too sure. However, she could only give it a try. After that, Ke Sailuo nodded at the captain of the bodyguards. The captain obviously knew what to do and walked to a position next to the brazier. Li Huailin also noticed that there was something that looked like a square table next to the brazier. There was a hole in the middle of the table.
The captain walked to the front of the table and nodded at Ke Sailuo again. After getting a response, he took out an orange-yellow thing and threw it directly into the hole on the table.
"What is it?" Li Huailin was still curious about what the other party threw in. Suddenly, the brazier in front of him began to react. Li Huailin turned his head and saw that the brazier was now emitting an orange-yellow light. This light was emitted from the surface of the brazier, but because of the shape of the brazier, all the light seemed to be concentrated in the middle. It felt a bit like a solar reflector, but this time, the light was visible.
It was obvious that the place where the light was concentrated was the center of the tripod in the middle, which was the position of the eyeball. Seeing this, Li Huailin seemed to understand the mechanism of this thing, but he didn't say anything and continued to watch.
But soon, Li Huailin realized that there was a problem with the situation. Previously, because of the size of the eyeball, it couldn't completely fit into the ring in the middle. The current situation seemed to be a little out of control because of this reason. The first thing that could be seen was that the ring of metal outside the eyeball was constantly turning red, as if it was being heated. The entire eyeball began to become unstable.
"Village chief, this is not good!" The bodyguard Brad saw the situation and immediately said to Ke Sailuo.
"Whatever, prepare to fire," Ke Sailuo thought for a moment and then said.
Yes, Mises' eyeball was not the same as the other eyeballs. Because it was modified into a weapon, there was a trigger-like launching device. Ke Sailuo was probably thinking of using this launching device to concentrate all the energy in one shot to see if it could activate the temple. She still chose to fire in this state, it seemed like Ke Sailuo was still very anxious.
The launching device was originally on the eyeball, but Ke Sailuo chose to use magic to activate it. When she saw that the eyeball had completely turned into a red ball, Ke Sailuo released a trace of magic towards the eyeball, ready to pull the trigger. But the moment the magic was released, Li Huailin clearly saw that the magic Ke Sailuo released was instantly absorbed by the surrounding orange light, and then turned into a trace of blue energy that was absorbed into the eyeball.
Not knowing if it was a coincidence, the moment Ke Sailuo's magic energy was absorbed, the metal around the eyeball might have reached the melting point. In an instant, the entire red ball suddenly exploded, all kinds of metal liquid flew everywhere. Because the metal shell exploded, the size of the eyeball just happened to shrink, and it fell right in the middle of the ring.
The next moment, all the energy melted into the eyeball, and Li Huailin clearly saw a ray of light shoot out from the center of the eyeball, and then it just happened to shoot the gem below it. At the same time, the gem also began to emit various kinds of light, as if it was responding to the eyeball above it.
It seemed like the activation was successful, but the problem was that this situation did not last long. Very soon, Li Huailin saw the eyeball slowly turn black, and then the light in the middle began to weaken. However, the orange light in the middle of the brazier continued to emit, but … the movement was indeed getting smaller and smaller.
"As expected, it can't succeed." Seeing this situation, Ke Sailuo also sighed. Yes, they had seen this situation many times. This experiment was almost no different from the previous one. After all, the launch of the eyeball wasn't properly triggered, and the modified metal on the outside quickly melted. In the end, in the end, it was equivalent to saying that this eyeball had done the experiment alone, and the result of the experiment was indeed unsuccessful.
As expected, there was no problem with what Ke Sailuo said. After a while, the orange light around it began to slowly weaken, and finally disappeared. There was still no movement around, and everything returned to normal.
Ke Sailuo also stretched out her hand, and this time, the eyeball in the middle flew directly towards her. Li Huailin looked at the eyeball that returned to him, and apart from the slight blackening, there was no change.
"I understand now!" "This eyeball is actually an energy-gathering device, right? The thing you just threw in should be a magical crystal, right? So, this device is actually breaking down the mana of the magical crystal and transferring it to the eyeball in the middle. Then, it will shoot out all the mana to activate the temple, right?" Misos suddenly shouted from the side, "That's right. That's right.
Mises was indeed a researcher. After looking at it for a while, he more or less understood the general mechanism of this thing. Yes, Mises' idea was similar to that of Li Huailin. When he saw the situation just now, Li Huailin thought of something similar to solar energy, but this time, the energy source was replaced by the magical crystal that was thrown in previously.
"Your device is not good enough," Ke Sailuo said with a sigh.
"I know, after all, I didn't know about this thing before." Mises was actually a little excited when he spoke. "But now that I know the basic principle of this thing, I think I can design a suitable improvement plan for this thing."
"Can it … succeed?" Ke Sailuo asked, a little surprised.
"Probably … The function of this eyeball is to store a considerable amount of energy, and then shoot it out in one go," Mises said after some thought. "But what material to use to make it … This is a problem."
