The golden-masked man agreed, "Yes, there is only one path."
The woman with the bronze mask was not convinced, "No, in the history of Taio Kingdom, the hero Uedgar also came here. He prayed for the resurrection of his son and daughter who were bitten to death by a poisonous snake.
The guard told him that if he went left, he would get his son, and if he went right, he would get his daughter.
Uedgar couldn't decide and didn't know how to choose. But he was smart. He retreated far away, closed his eyes, and walked through the door.
Although he only walked through one door, he didn't choose left or right. He might get his son and daughter who were resurrected! "
The golden-masked man said in a low voice, "But he might not get anything. Don't forget, this is the last chapter of the hero's story. There is no end to this story.
Until now, the tribes that once believed in Taio still use 'Uedgar's son and daughter' as an example of uncertainty. That's why we can't take the risk. Our original plan was to awaken one of them, not both of them. "
Quini, who had been silent all this time, suddenly let out a hoarse laugh. He said, "That's right. The illegitimate son of Taio you mentioned, the descendant of god named Uedgar, has been here before. I was the one who guided him. The guard mentioned in the poem is me."
The three looked over, and the woman with the bronze mask asked, "What happened to him? Did his wish come true? "
God Qui Ni smiled deeply, "I don't know. Because after he went in, he never came out. Legend has it that there is another exit on the opposite side of the Gemini Door. Maybe he got his wish and went out, or maybe he stayed inside forever. You can try and see if you can find him. "
The three obviously didn't have that intention.
The golden-masked man said in a low voice, "If we choose two doors, none of us will reach the end. We can only choose one. What do you mean by coming here?"
The green-masked man said, "The left is the best. I choose the left."
The woman with the bronze mask looked to the right, "I think the right is good."
The two of them had different opinions, so they looked at the man with the golden mask. The man thought for a moment, then took out a gold coin and tossed it. He opened his palm and looked at it, then said in a deep voice, "Go right."
God Quini let out a hoarse laugh: "You've found the place you're looking for. I've fulfilled my promise, so I'll be leaving now."
The golden-masked man turned his face slightly and glanced at the green-masked man. The latter nodded and tossed a jade bead to God Kui Ni.
After the thing flew out, a strange light burst out. Quini God screamed in fear, and then his whole body was sucked in like smoke.
The green-masked man reached out and took the jade bead. He said, "I'm sorry, but we can't let anyone know that we're here."
The three of them turned around and walked through the door on the right.
After passing through the Gemini Gate, the place that was supposed to be pitch-black was now filled with a natural and gentle light.
The three of them looked around and saw tall cliffs on both sides. They extended all the way up to the top where their eyes could not reach. Because it was so high, they seemed to be standing at the bottom of a narrow valley, but in fact, it was wide enough for ten carriages to pass side by side.
Both the stone walls and the ground were spotless, as if someone had carefully cleaned them.
The three of them looked down and saw that there was no danger, so they walked into the depths. However, the passage was very long, and with the repeated scenes on both sides, it seemed like there was no end in front of them.
The three of them were very patient. After walking for an unknown period of time, a bright color appeared on the wall. It was a huge colorful mural.
The woman with the bronze mask stopped to admire it with interest. She even reached out to touch it, saying, "These are the gods and heroes who have been here in the legends. They're all engraved on it."
The green-masked man said, "Did these people also choose the right gate?"
The man with the golden mask shook his head, saying, "The left and right are only the left and right we chose. They might not be. We might see them from the other gate."
The man with the green mask thought for a moment and nodded.
As they gradually walked forward, the woman with the bronze mask suddenly raised her voice, saying, "Look, that's Uedgar."
The two of them looked over subconsciously.
They saw a tall and strong man standing in front of the Twin Gates of Ildo. The man's upper body was half-naked, revealing his muscular arms and back. He wore a feathered crown on his head, a wooden spear in his hand, and a bronze dagger hanging from his waist.
The woman with the bronze mask said excitedly, "Uedgar should be the last divine hero from the previous era who came here. In other words, we'll reach the end of this passage after passing through here."
She then looked at the next mural, and to her slight disappointment, it showed that the divine-descended hero was walking in the same passage as them, but it did not show which door he chose.
As she continued to look down, she discovered that there were still murals behind. However, when her gaze landed on them, she suddenly cried out in alarm. She pointed upwards, and with a trembling voice, she said, "This, this is our …"
When this voice sounded, it attracted the attention of the other two. Immediately, the gazes under their masks hardened.
The mural showed three masked men standing in front of the Twin Gates. One of them pointed to the right, while the other pointed to the left, indicating that they were going in different directions. In the next mural, the three of them walked towards the gate on the right.
The three of them looked at the mural with fear in their hearts. Did the mural appear after they made their choice, or did it predict their arrival?
But what surprised them even more was that the mural didn't end there.
In the next mural, they were standing in front of a huge stone. One of them was holding a lamp, another was holding a long branch, and the last one was standing below the platform. He was pouring a two-eared jar into the pool below, and a crack appeared on the stone.
The man with the golden mask said in a deep voice, "We'll know if it's like this after we go in."
The other two nodded. They continued to walk forward along the tunnel. At this moment, another trapezoidal gate similar to the Twin Gates appeared in front of them. The three of them were excited. They knew that after walking through this gate, they should be able to reach the place they wanted.
The three of them quickened their pace and walked out of the tunnel. They found themselves in a vast space that was narrow at the front and wide at the back. If there were no accidents, they should have arrived at the belly of the Divine Hill.
In front of them was a triangular platform with ten steps. On top of it was a huge stone that looked like the one on the mural. It went all the way to the top. On the smooth stone surface, there were golden lines of unknown meaning, which were somewhat similar to the lines on their masks.
Under the stone was an altar with a long branch and an oil lamp. The three of them slowly walked over. The woman with the bronze mask stepped forward and took the long branch. She came to the right side. The man with the cyan mask picked up the lamp and stood on the left side.
They did not do anything that went against the mural because this might be the right way to awaken that person, or it might be some kind of guidance. They did not dare to go against it.
The man with the gold mask took out a pair of earthen jars. Inside were the divine powers of the six EsGods, which were also the offerings to awaken this person.
He removed the lid and slowly tilted the jar. The divine powers inside were restrained by an invisible force into a golden liquid that slowly flowed into the stone trough.
At this moment, outside the Divine Hill, in a place where they couldn't see, a huge illusory figure appeared. However, after a few swings, it disappeared again.
As the golden liquid flowed, a crack appeared on the stone. Then, it actually melted in a burst of golden light, revealing a stone staircase that went up.
The three of them looked at each other and walked up together.
After walking for a long time, the three of them came to a wide platform. The edges of the platform were bottomless darkness, and above them was a vast and huge golden stone wall.
At the very front, there was a stone throne. A young man with long black hair was sitting on it. He looked abnormally strong. One of his elbows was supporting one side of his head, while the other hand held a golden spear that was engraved with countless fine patterns.
The man with the green mask said, "Is it him?
The man with the gold mask replied, "It's him." He looked at the spear and said, "That's the Spear of Il."
Il referred to the upper level of the Ipar. Even among the ancient gods of the previous era, only a few could be given such a title.
The three of them carefully walked up. At this time, a ray of light shone over them and stopped on their masks for a moment before quickly disappearing.
The moment the light came, the three of them felt an extreme sense of danger. However, as the light retreated, this feeling disappeared at the same time.
At this time, a vortex suddenly appeared on the top of the wall, and a dazzling light fell down and covered the man's body. At the same time, a dazzling light burst out.
The three of them unconsciously took a few steps back. After the light slowly dissipated, the three of them looked again and were shocked. They did not know when, but the young man's eyes had already opened. Those pure golden eyes were looking at them at this moment.
At this time, they suddenly felt a pain in their heads, as if something had been pulled out. It felt like a memory or a part of their body. They all let out a cry and unconsciously knelt on the ground.
After the pain passed, the three of them gradually regained consciousness.
At this time, they saw the young man slowly stand up from his seat. At the same time, they felt a voice in their hearts, "Believers of Ipar, you have done well. After another great silence, Ipar will enslave this world again."
