[Second Update]
Of course, Salin couldn't rest for six hours. Since there was a ruin under Great Liang City, he couldn't give it up. He would rather destroy it than let the Holy See take it away. In addition to the dangerous magic cannons, Salin had to set up other defenses.
In the long run, the best way was to set up a magic net in Great Liang City. This way, mages and Necromancers could obtain the power of magic in the Great Liang City area without being weakened.
The problem was that it would take a long time to set up a magic net. Once the magic net was set up, there wouldn't be so many Necromancers in a short period of time. Or they could be replaced by demons, but it couldn't be guaranteed for a long time.
Nicholas, Eleanor, and Sue. It wouldn't be a problem for the three of them to protect the child. The fighting power of the three of them didn't weaken much because of the change in environment, especially Eleanor, a level-eight elf royal. The power of her bow and arrow was no different from magic. If not weakened, Eleanor's fighting power would be stronger than a level-nine Magic Shooter.
Needless to say, Nicholas didn't need the favor of the gods at all. Instead, he was afraid that the gods would find trouble with him. This kind of place that the gods couldn't care about was probably the favorite place of the fallen priests. His Fallen Scepter had collected a lot of souls recently.
Sue, the Gold Sword Saint, had no weaknesses except for the lack of good weapons. This young man had a firm mind, even stronger than Salin.
Salin contacted Nelis. Ceylon City's teleportation array could only send letters. Salin asked her to build a teleportation magic array in a short period of time and personally send thirty thousand demons.
The most obvious advantage of the Elemental Magic Tower was the coordinate positioning.
Generally speaking, building a teleportation array was a very troublesome thing. On the entire Myers Continent, to build a teleportation array, one needed to choose a very stable coordinate to avoid accidents. The location of the Elemental Magic Tower was always suitable for teleportation.
Maybe the teleportation array in Ceylon City would be destroyed after a few times, but the teleportation array in the Elemental Magic Tower was as solid as level-eighteen elemental stones. Even the gods couldn't destroy it.
Six hours passed quickly. Salin called Gusin over and brought over twenty soldiers of the Dragon Slayer Army. After everyone was equipped with the Temple Army's equipment, he called the twelve Magic Shooters, as well as Schica and Garin, ready to enter the ruins.
The ruin was right below Great Liang City, in the middle of the giant statues.
When the Magic Shooters saw that Sarlin had brought too few soldiers, they helplessly brought their own soldiers from the Golden Plains. Entering the ruins would definitely be dangerous, and Salin was unwilling to lose manpower. The Magic Shooters had no choice but to bleed in order to get a share of the benefits.
Jia Lin was angry when she saw Sicca following her. If Silva had said anything else about her, she wouldn't have taken it to heart. However, Silva had said something about her figure, and it was true that her figure wasn't as good as Silva's.
Shika seemed to have forgotten about this matter and happily jumped down from the top of the city wall.
As for the elite soldiers, they had to rely on ropes to descend to the ground. Not everyone dared to jump a height of 500 meters. A paper umbrella appeared in Carrie's hand. She opened it and jumped off the city wall after Sarlin. This paper umbrella was made of the same material as her mask, incomparably tough. The paper umbrella was embedded with a magic core. After opening it, Jia Lin easily floated down.
This was the equipment she used when she was at level six. It allowed a Great Mage to fly like a Magic Shooter.
Salin's landing spot had also been calculated. He happened to land on the nose of a giant's head. Looking around, the soil between the giants had already been petrified. This was the foundation of Daliang City. The hundred meters of soil above was essentially an extension of these statues, and it was extremely sturdy.
The ground under their feet was a little soft, caused by the huge tremors. The Magic Shooters surrounded Salin, tacitly acknowledging his leadership. Salin pointed at the nose of the giant statue and said, "I heard that these ancient statues were replicated in detail according to the human body. You can also enter the inside of the statue through the nose."
The Magic Shooters from the Golden Plain looked at each other. Salin smiled and said, "We don't have much time. Let's take the easy way. Enter through the nose. According to the book, I'm afraid no one can withstand the wind magic attack inside. Dig down and dig out the statue's ears. We'll enter from there. "
The Magic Shooters let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that Salin wasn't ignorant after all.
Salin didn't release his puppets. His puppets were used for battle. The Magic Shooters had to use the construction puppets and dig down under Salin's guidance. The mages of the Golden Plain were quite strong. Even Alchemy City didn't have construction puppets, but these mages didn't feel the pinch when using them. It seemed that they had a good way to make them.
Each of the twelve 9th Rank High Mages was controlling four puppets to excavate. They couldn't mobilize the elements in the environment, but their mental strength wasn't restricted.
If Salin could set up the magic net well, these people would still have the combat power of a Level Nine Magic Shooter within the range of the magic net, or even stronger. After all, the magic net had replaced the magic strings. With the continuous support of the magic furnace, these Magic Shooters could continuously release magic as long as their mental strength was strong enough.
As for the ruins of the giants, the Magic Shooters hadn't excavated them before. However, the mages had seen many records about giants. When the construction puppets dug down, they didn't encounter any trouble. All the trouble was caused by Salin's magic cannon volley. The magic disaster caused was over.
The giant's ears were soon exposed. Salin didn't let the construction puppets continue digging. Instead, he went forward himself and released his water to clean the residual soil in the giant's ears.
How big was the giant's ear? Salin finally saw it. The six-meter-long green water quickly cleaned the outline of the ear. The ear was dozens of meters tall.
Salin then summoned the water puppet Lawson. Lawson was in front, and Gusin was behind. All the soldiers carried magic lamps and walked into the giant's ear.
Lawson was very calm now. He didn't have any emotions. He had reached Level Nine in magic training. Usually, he only meditated and thought in the Spirit State. Salin summoned him, and he took the initiative to open a spiritual connection with Salin.
What Lawson could see, Salin could feel. The water puppet walked in front. Under the protection of their followers, the Magic Shooters followed Salin into the giant's ear.
Jia Lin put away her paper umbrella and followed Salin and Sicar. She now knew that she couldn't run around in the ruins alone. Entering the giant's ear, they still couldn't control all the elements in the space. The combat power of Magic Shooters was still very low.
The twelve Magic Shooters involuntarily moved closer to Salin. Everyone knew that Salin had elemental creatures and desolate puppets. They commanded their followers and construction puppets to follow the water puppet, ready to deal with any dangerous situation.
In fact, there was no danger. Inside the giant's ear, the winding road went forward. Except for the darkness, they didn't find any magic patterns.
Salin, however, was confident. He knew that the ruins were underground, and very deep. There was no way to go through the statue. He didn't have the time to dig. The right way was to continue digging. Between the twenty-four statues, there would be a door for humans to enter and exit.
Although it looked like the ruins of the giants, since it was in the hinterland of the Myers Continent, it was definitely related to humans.
There were many branches of the giant's bloodline, and it was a hundred times more complicated than that of humans. But purebred giants could grow to a height of more than a kilometer. The head of this giant statue was a kilometer long. According to the ratio, its height was at least seven to eight kilometers.
The water puppet walked in front. After about ten minutes, it passed through the winding road and came to an empty cave. Salin judged that this was the giant's mouth. At one end of the empty cave, there was a bottomless hole, which should be the giant's throat.
The water puppet retreated slightly, and Salin signaled the construction puppet to go forward.
Under the control of the Magic Shooters, a construction puppet walked towards the hole. The magic lamp in the giant's mouth could only illuminate a distance of a hundred meters. The golem that went to test it walked to the edge of the cave, but the giant suddenly stretched out a huge claw, grabbed the golem's head, and dragged it into the depths of the cave.
Salin heard the sound of the construction puppet's steel head being squeezed, and the Magic Shooters' faces changed. How could there be living creatures in the ruins? Historically, Great Liang City had always existed. In other words, this ruins had at least a history of tens of thousands of years. After tens of thousands of years, all kinds of creatures would have starved to death.
Salin was the only one who had seen the claw clearly. He stopped and gestured for everyone to stop probing.
"Jialin, how much do you know about giants?"
"It's all from the books." Jialin paused. Seeing that Salin didn't ask further, she continued, "It's said that there are many parasitic creatures in the giants' stomachs. When the giants fight, they will spit them out, and these parasitic creatures help the giants fight."
"That thing just now was a parasitic creature, right?"
"Definitely. There are many parasitic creatures in the human body. Many sick people have worms in their stomachs. This is all studied by Magicians. The parasitic creatures in the giants' bodies are different. They already have intelligence. If the giants die, they won't survive. " Jialin knew that Salin couldn't control it for now, so she could only say what she knew without leaving everyone hanging.
"Let's say that the place we passed by … isn't a giant statue, but a giant's corpse. Logically speaking, the parasitic creatures in the giants' bodies should have died long ago."
"That's right. That's why this is still a statue. What appeared just now was just an ancient puppet."
"An ancient puppet? Its power is very ordinary! " Salin asked in astonishment. Although that hand had crushed the steel construct puppet in an instant, it seemed to be only Level-8 or Level-9. It might not even be a match for a Primordial Puppet.
