Chapter 289

Entering the palace, Renn had never seen a building with such a large interior space.

The ground of the hall is as smooth as a mirror and spotless. The walls around 100 meters high seem to be made of gold, and there are magnificent murals carved there. The main content of the paintings is a god with a body like a mountain, holding a spear Strong shields, slaying dragons, bloody battles with demons, and fierce battles with other gods.

From the image point of view, this god is obviously Anam, the god of giants.

He is not fighting alone, with an army of giants following him.

These giants come from different branches and come in all shapes and sizes, but the most prominent ones are dozens of Titans who control thunder and lightning.

Several of the Titans behaved no less than gods.

There is a circular floor in the middle of the hall that is completely transparent, like glass, and you can directly see the underground space.

There is a huge furnace in operation, and energy pipes extend out of it, and the surging current leads to all directions.

Ren glanced at the phone interface, and the density of thunder elements reached 70, which is simply appalling.

The light from the furnace illuminates the hall above, covering the entire palace with a sacred atmosphere. The ancient simplicity and grandeur are combined. From time to time, there are lightning bursts and thunder roaring, as if you are in the kingdom of gods.

However, none of this attracted Ren's attention more than the figure sitting across the hall.

It's a titan.

He sat on a huge chair made of metal, and just sitting there, he was already taller than the Titans he had just seen.

If you stand up, it must be more than twenty meters!

Giants and dragons have one thing in common, the bigger the body, the stronger the strength, and the titan giant with a height of more than 20 meters is rare in the epic records.

Just at the first glance, Ren felt a great sense of oppression and was almost out of breath.

I am like an ant standing in front of an elephant.

Small and fragile.

The giant's skin showed a strange metallic luster, like the color of bronze. It didn't wear armor like ordinary storm giants, but wore a loose white robe, which was very casual, like putting a curtain on its body Wrap it around two or three times, then tie it with a belt.

He didn't wear shoes either, and stepped on the ground with bare feet.

The face of the giant titan is like a middle-aged man. It doesn't look old, but it reveals a vicissitudes of life. The long golden hair and the ends of the beard are gray, as if they have existed for a long time.

His eyes are full of wisdom, like a wise polymath.

The Elder Titan's posture was very relaxed. He leaned his back gently against the chair, put one hand on the armrest, and rested his cheek on the other hand. He looked at Ren who came in, his eyes full of interest.

Renn had already closed the eye of the soul.

Even without the eyes of the soul, he can still sense the terror of this elder Titan, who is stronger than his teacher and higher in level than the holy soul wizard; The breath is very sensitive, and Elder Tai Tan also has a similar breath, which is divinity.

Although the divinity is extremely weak, it is enough to show that the elder Titan is already at the level of a demigod!

The power of a demigod, if replaced by others, even a legend would be trembling.

The will to truth made Ren look normal, completely unaffected.

He followed Bremet to salute the titan, and said respectfully, "Ren Augustus has met Elder Solim."

At the same time, I thought to myself, among the twelve titans and demigods in the second era, there was no Solim, and I don't know when Solim appeared?

"Ren, you speak the Giant language well, and your level of knowledge is beyond your age."

Solim's voice echoed in the hall, however, he spoke a very standard imperial language, that is, Orion language, like a human who grew up in the empire.

"The elders are overwhelmed."

Ren bowed and noticed a detail.

Sorim's imperial language standard is too high, one of the vocabulary is used only at the beginning of the empire, and the accent is also different from the present, which seems a bit weird.

Judging from this, this elder Titan learned Mandarin at least two thousand years ago!

"It's not a good thing for young people to be too modest."

Solim stood up, his huge body was like a hill, forming a large shadow, and said: "I have witnessed the rise and fall of many countries, and the birth and extinction of many species. For thousands of years, the mortal race His personality has never changed, and he always likes to cover up his true thoughts, which is actually unnecessary in the face of absolute power."

He stepped forward as he spoke, and the hall shook slightly.

Every time he took a step forward, Elder Tai Tan's body size shrunk a circle. When he said "unnecessary", his body had shrunk to the size of a normal human being, turning into a strong middle-aged man in his early two meters, only taller than Ryan is half a head tall.

As Solim got smaller, he looked younger in appearance.

Bronze-colored skin, a muscular figure, a faint smile on his face, gentle eyes, exuding an irresistible charm all over his body.

He walked up to Ren, nodded thoughtfully in his eyes, and said with a smile: "So it's the will of truth, no wonder I can't see through your mind. Just now, what did you think of?"

Ren replied frankly: "I'm guessing the elder's age."

"Oh?" Sorim was not angry, but became interested, "How old do you think I am? If the error of your answer is within three hundred years, I will give you a reward."

This difficulty is not small.

From a mortal's point of view, the lifespan of a demigod is almost eternal, and if there is no accident, it can even live for tens of thousands of years!

Bremitt next to him shook his head depressedly, "Sorim, why didn't you let me guess when we first met?"

"Haha..." Solim laughed heartily, "This question is too easy for archaeologists, I don't want to give you a gift for nothing."

Ren turned his head and looked contemplative.

His eyes swept across the hall of the palace, carefully observing every detail, and finally looked at Solim slowly, as if he wanted to find clues that could guess the age of the elder Titan.

Both Solim and Bremet disagreed, obviously not thinking that Ren could guess correctly.

In fact, Ren really couldn't guess it.

He could only judge that Sorim was over two thousand years old, but he couldn't figure out whether it was three thousand years old, three thousand five hundred or five thousand years old.

A true archaeologist or polymath, with some time, might be able to find out.

But Ryan is not ready yet.

However, he has the eyes of the soul. Although he couldn't observe Solim's soul directly, he could feel it little by little from the corner of his eye.

In the field of vision, Solim's whole body is full of light!

Ren didn't dare to look straight at all, even if he only glanced out of the corner of his eye, it made his soul tremble. He suppressed the discomfort, remained calm on the surface, and after a few seconds of careful experience, he quickly closed the eyes of the soul.

For so long, Renn has used the eye of the soul countless times, and he has long been handy.

He can also make accurate judgments only by the residual power of the target's soul.

This is like the annual rings of a tree are so clear. Just by looking at the outermost rings, you can calculate the approximate number of annual rings in the tree without seeing the whole picture.

"Three thousand nine hundred and fifty years old." Ren quickly gave the answer.

Sorim was stunned for a moment.

Bremet's eyes were even more unbelievable. Even if he guessed later, he couldn't guess more accurately than Ryan.

Solim was born at the end of the last era. He fully witnessed the invasion of Alan Erth by the demons of the abyss, destroying the pattern of the three major races of elves, dwarves, and orcs. He fled to the plane of storms and survived until he advanced to the Titans. Return, through a dark millennium, to witness the rise of humanity and the founding of empires.

To this day, Sorim will live to be four thousand years old in a few decades!

"What is your calculation based on?" Bremet asked curiously.

Ren spread out his hands, "I'll make a random guess."

Both the dwarf and the elder Titan didn't believe it. Solim nodded half in amazement and half in approval, and a badge the size of half a palm appeared on his hand.

The badge was made of a stone-like material, with obscure runes engraved in the middle, shaped like zigzag lightning bolts.

"This is a lightning runestone, a unique creation of our storm giant family. Wearing it on your body can increase the casting speed and power of lightning spells."

Solim gave a brief introduction and handed over the things.

When Ren came into contact with the runestone, he immediately figured out its effect. The acceleration and power of spellcasting were increased by about 10%. It can be called the best equipment, worth at least tens of thousands of gold shields!

As expected of a demigod, such a generous shot.

Ren quickly put it away, and said sincerely, "Thank you for the elder's gift."

"I made this at random, as long as you like it." Sorim said indifferently, and looked at Ren twice again, "I heard from Bremitt that you are a student of the Holy Soul Sorcerer? "

"Yes." Ren responded, knowing that something was coming.

"I've heard of the name Anse Wodos, and his spellcasting concept is somewhat unique, which inspired me a lot." Sorim commented in a very flat tone, and continued: "You are his He is a student and an earl, so he must have a high status in the Orienth Empire and have many friends?"

Ren didn't understand why a demigod asked these things, so he could only nod his head and admit:

"Okay."

Elder Titan seemed a little dissatisfied with this answer, but he didn't bother, "You don't have to be nervous, I just want to make some deals with you."

"Deal?" Ren's heart moved.

Solim took out a crystal-like silver ore and asked, "Have you seen this mineral? We call it 'source crystal' in the giant language. If you can collect source crystal, you can use it to follow I make a deal, no matter how much I take it."

Ren took the ore and started with a very heavy hand.

The metal touch took effect immediately, and I had a clear understanding of the structural properties of the mineral in my hand. Its density was very high, between fine iron and meteorite iron, but it was not particularly hard.

Its conductivity to energy is also very general, which makes it unusable for making magic equipment.

However, Ryan noticed something.

This mineral called source crystal radiates energy all the time. If you put it in the dark, you will definitely see it emitting a faint light. The small mineral contains an unimaginably huge amount of energy. Just like the radioactive ore in the previous life.

Source crystal is a kind of nuclear fuel?

Ryan had never seen this metal in Arranus, nor heard of its existence, but it did not prevent him from guessing.

His eyes turned to the huge furnace under the transparent floor.

Solim noticed Ren's movements, his expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help sighing: "Ren, you are more intelligent than I imagined."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a bronze plate fell into Ren's hand.

Ren saw that the bronze plate was engraved with lightning bolts, and it was written in Orion language. This is a transaction list, which lists the things that can be exchanged for source crystals and their corresponding source crystal quantities.

He glanced through it roughly, and his heart suddenly became hot.
