Pirates of the First Empire

Not to mention what Carlo thought in his heart, the two capable users, Charon and Tezolo, had already begun to "dig" the temple, especially Charon—

After using a few small-scale blasts, he found that this would not really cause any damage to the temple inside. He got up and began to increase his power soon.

rumbling~

"What are you doing, Charon! Are all the people of Dangkong Island deaf?"

The huge explosion pulled Carlo back from his thoughts, and he yelled at Charon speechlessly, "Good guy, with this momentum, the residents of Bika didn't know it, and they thought it was an enemy invasion.

"Ah... sorry sorry!"

Charon was obviously negligent for a while. Of course, although the sound of the explosion sounds loud when Carlo is close at hand, in fact, the settlements of Bika residents are still a few kilometers away, so the impact is not very big.

The episode passed without any accidents, and soon Charon and Tezolo continued to work, and Charon didn't "hi" anymore.

Switching to the blasting method with a relatively "dull" sound, Tezolo also turned into a "golden shovel", manipulating several huge tools made of gold, digging hard, and soon, the three layers inside and outside the three layers Layers of dolomite and soil have been dug away, exposing the metal crust.

After this excavation process and the exposed metal casing of the so-called "temple", if Carlo's guess was only 40% correct just now, then there is at least a 60% probability that he is right now.

First of all, these excavated soil layers and rocks, Carlo found that these were not formed naturally after a long period of time, but a man-made cover, that is to say, the reason why the temple looks like a simple stone, Someone made it that way on purpose.

Secondly, the sacrificial tripod that has completely broken through the outer layer, Carlo was surprised to find that this tripod is very likely to be a "tool", a "decoration" that has no practical effect at all, and its purpose is to deceive people.

Because, Carlo discovered that the bottom of the tripod was not an ordinary ground, but a thing linked to the "temple", and it was this thing that supported the tripod underground.

That's why Carlo thought that this cauldron might be a cover-up from beginning to end, but the question is, if the cover-up knew this, why would he bother to embellish this cauldron?If it's for hiding, wouldn't it be better to just remove it?

While Carlo was still thinking, Charon and Tezolo, who were digging more and more smoothly, had unknowingly dug out the entire "buried" "temple".

At the same time, the "temple" that originally looked like a white hill turned into a dark metal building with sharp edges and corners, like a metal altar.

Charon and Tezolo felt that this was the aura that a "temple" should have, and it was not comparable to the "stone temple" they saw at the beginning.

"Second Highness, take a look, this is all right?"

Tezzolo patted the non-existent dust on his body, and asked Carlo not far away, while Charon on the side had his hands behind his back, pacing and nodding towards the "renewed" temple in front of him, with a leader Check out the appearance of the project.

"Well, but wait a moment and look here again."

"Take a look together, and you can talk about what you think. I don't think this is a temple at all, so don't treat it as a temple."

Carlo said, pointing to the ground dug by himself, that is, the open space under the cauldron, revealing the same metallic color as the "temple".

In contrast, the sacrificial cauldron was dark blue, with no luster on the surface, and the craftsmanship was rough as far as the naked eye could see. It simply didn't fit in with the "temple" in front of it. It could be seen that the two were not integrated.

"This is……?"

Tezzolo also saw the piece under Carlo's feet, and he subconsciously asked, but was interrupted by Carlo shaking his head, and Tezolo didn't say anything more.

"I think, I already have a little understanding of what this so-called temple is, if I didn't guess wrong."

"Next, let's lift up the ground as well."

……

Compared with "irregular" buildings, it is easier to dig the ground. When the three people work together, the ground where the temple is located will be "opened" soon.

"What exactly is going on--"

"This is the real temple, or in other words, this is a building with special functions, and the only thing left on the ground is an entrance!"

As Carlo expected, in the ground, they dug a square "secret room" that was integrated with the so-called "temple" on the ground, and there was a high platform under the sacrificial tripod on the ground. Its bottom is also connected with the secret chamber underground, which is also integrated.

Therefore, when Charon questioned in doubt, Carlo could give an affirmative answer, because he can be sure that his guess is already close to ten.

All three of them stood on top of this square secret room, feeling the vague coldness coming from their feet, and hearing Carlo's explanation, Charon and Tezolo couldn't help being curious.

"You said, could this be the technological product of their ancestors, that is, the moon people, as the high priest said? A technology that has never appeared on the sea!"

"!"

Charon and Tezolo were also shocked, and having said this, Carlo no longer concealed his guess, and continued to talk.

"Remember what the high priest said? He usually throws something into the cauldron when he sacrifices?"

"Is...be?"

Carlo asked the two of them, and Tezolo replied subconsciously.

"That's right, to be more precise, it's Rebei and Fengbei, these Bei who have stored a lot of energy. In fact, I was curious at that time—"

"Since this temple worships the ancestors of the Bika people and the ancient belief of facing the moon, why are these shells sacrificed? Shouldn't it be food, or even other rarer items?"
