Gu Xu of the Dragon City team had the same idea as Han Dong. He regarded Prometheus as his second life. He even abandoned the inherent knowledge in his mind in God's Capital and learned the Sun Tablet Inscription.
Combined with his Buddha attribute, he could release a kind of solar energy.
Today, Gu Xu was an out-and-out sun priest.
The solar energy released by him effectively suppressed the dark energy coming from the 'lower end'.
In the background of ancient Egyptian mythology, the "night" was regarded as the endless darkness brought by the snake of the underworld, Apophis.
The reason why the night would recede on the second day and the sun would rise as usual was that Ra, the god of the sun, rode on his divine ship every day to defeat the demonic snake that tried to devour the world.
It was exactly so.
The Sun Company ranked first in the overall index of the Nine Pillars Company.
In addition to creating bio-energy suns and being responsible for maintaining the day and night changes in God's Capital, the company also shouldered a difficult task. This task also required the help of the priest team in the Black Pyramid.
Together, they suppressed the darkness from the "lower end of God's Capital."
However, the dark power that attempted to invade God's Capital did not come from Apophis.
It came from the origin of the black water.
The humans on this planet used the endless potential of the black water to transform their bodies, develop technology, create things, and even devour other civilizations. They had to bear the risk.
A risk of backlash.
In other words, using the black water was a sin in itself.
…
The two teams that temporarily cooperated walked in the secret passage. With every step they took, the concentration of dark matter increased.
If Gu Xu alone suppressed the darkness, it would inevitably consume a lot of energy.
If they encountered the truly terrifying dark life below, Gu Xu, who controlled the "power of the sun," was bound to be the core combat force.
"Let me help too."
Demps took out a dazzling and strange crystal. Its material was similar to diamond and its appearance was shaped like an eye.
Demps embedded the crystal in his palm.
Along with the magical energy.
The eye-shaped crystal released a pure white light, similar to a flashlight. It could only shine in a single direction, but the effect was excellent.
In addition to being able to suppress the darkness, it also has the property of dispersing.
He only needed to aim the eye-shaped crystal at the depths of the tunnel, and the dark matter within a range of twenty meters would disappear.
Feeling the pure light from the crystal, even Gu Xu was shocked. He seemed to recognize this precious stone from the Divine Capital.
"This is a Horus crystal?
It was said to be the most valuable raw material in the Fairy's Capital. Complete crystals were even rarer … Its price should be above a million, right? Moreover, it is often priceless. "
"Someone gave it to me. It's alright."
As Demps had passed the [God's Chosen One assessment], his slave status was completely lifted and he was no longer bound by his former slave master.
However, Demps still promised his sisters in the Women's Federation that as long as he was still in Fairy's Capital, he would definitely respond to their requests for massages.
When they bid farewell to Demps, more than ten powerful ladies shed tears of reluctance.
In agreement, the ladies gave the perfect "Horus crystal" stored in the Women's Federation to Demps as a common token. They also hoped that Demps would remember them and come back often.
"Gift?" As the Sun Priest, Gu Xu knew how precious such a treasure was. How could he give it away casually?
"This trip to Fairy's Capital set by fate can be regarded as our second lives … Everyone has a different experience. I'm lucky to have established relationships with many rich people at the beginning.
Since the effect of the "Horus crystal" is so good, I will be responsible for illuminating the path to the depths.
Captain Gu Xu, you just need to make sure that everyone is not swallowed by the darkness. Save as much energy as possible to deal with the monsters at the bottom. "
"Okay."
…
Five hours.
The two teams passed through the passage covered by darkness and finally reached the deepest part.
There was a door made of biomass that blocked the way.
They had to cut off the nerve connection while destroying the door. Otherwise, it would alarm the pyramid's higher-ups in advance.
"Xiao Qing, I'll leave it to you."
The black-haired young man in the Dragon City team stepped out. After inspecting the biological door, he directly revealed his special left arm, a "mechanical arm" that was integrated with Dragon City's top mechanical skills.
Whoosh!
Something popped out of the mechanical arm, and then several silver lights flashed.
The biological door in front of them was completely broken, and the nerve sensing system hidden inside was also destroyed at the same time.
Through the door.
An underground world the size of Fairy's Capital appeared in front of everyone.
1. Countless underground rivers were scattered here, flowing to different areas of the planet.
2. The center of the underground world, which was directly under the Black Pyramid, corresponded to a completely sealed "cylindrical prison" that was connected to the burial area at the top.
The prison's area was the same as the Black Pyramid. The material used to build the Black Pyramid was also black stone, which could isolate all energy and perception.
What was sealed inside should be the answer that everyone was looking for.
That was the biggest secret of Fairy's Capital, the core of the "Prometheus" incident — the origin of Black Water.
3. Thousands of fleshy tubes grew on the surrounding walls of the underground world, connecting to the prison at the center.
Han Dong, who had worked in the wormhole at the edge of Fairy's Capital, knew very well what these tubes were transporting.
Those foreign slaves with broken limbs or poor quality would be sent to the underground area as food for certain creatures if they were not taken away by any organization.
The answer was in the prison.
When everyone looked at the cylindrical prison, they saw a group of creatures that were far beyond the concept of human beings wandering around the periphery. However, they were wearing tattered priest robes.
"Sure enough, it's not that easy to find the answer … It's rumored that this underground prison is guarded by a fallen high priest whose strength is second only to the Pharaoh. He's also the only priest who can move normally in the underground area.
His personal intake of Black Water is the highest in Fairy's Capital.
The group of fallen priests under his command ensures the safety of the entire prison. "
"Is there any way to get in?"
"The Black Pillar Prison is the highest secret of Fairy's Capital, and this is the first time I've seen it … Moreover, as the lifeline of Fairy's Capital, there's definitely no 'loophole' to enter.
There's no other way other than killing our way in.
Once we start a war with the prison guards, it means that we're enemies with the Black Pyramid. There's no way out … Are you ready? "
After Gu Xu finished speaking, there was no change in the eyes of the team members.
It was impossible to obtain the ultimate treasure that fate had bestowed upon them without taking any risks.
They did as they were told.
A priest who was wandering around the periphery sensed the abnormality and was about to turn his head.
The white-haired youth attacked instantly. The shadow of a wild beast from ancient times shrouded the youth's body … Abel immediately displayed his strongest offensive stance and tore the priest's limbs apart with his sharp claws.
Just as he was about to crush the priest's head …
"Wait … He's still useful."
The moment Abel let go, Gu Xu took over.
He held the priest's head with one hand and fell asleep with the priest through a strange dream technique. In the dream, he dug out the secrets hidden in the priest's brain.
It was at this moment.
Everyone who participated in the attack on the priest received a notification from the System.
[Faction Prestige Change: Black Pyramid (Friendly → Hostile)]
