Chapter 1030

Ren came out of the meditation room and entered the Temple of Storms again after half a month.

Today, this huge temple has been completely controlled by giants. Solim brought storm giants to live in various palaces. They lived in the core area of ​​the temple, surrounding the sky temple, frost giants, stone giants, hill giants and Cyclops is in the outer circle.

Including the elderly, the weak, women and children, the total number of the several giant groups is less than 10,000. Even if they all move in, they will only occupy less than one-tenth of the area of ​​the temple.

Outside the temple, the major vassal races also migrated one after another, occupying the summit of the storm.

The wind element creatures that had just returned were scattered around the top of the storm, and Sorim strictly controlled their living and activity areas, and they were not allowed to leave at will.

On the steps of the main entrance of the Sky Temple, Ren saw Elder Titan with a red face.

"His Majesty!"

Solim greeted with a very happy mood.

"Elder." Ren smiled and nodded, looking at this powerful demigod. Every time he met with Solim before, he always looked preoccupied, but now he was waiting for him here in person, with a look on his face. The heaviness of the past is really refreshing on happy occasions.

But it's understandable when you think about it. Solim shoulders the future of the entire race, and the pressure is huge.

Now, once the pain and shame accumulated for tens of thousands of years are gone, and the ancestral land is regained, and there is hope for revival, who can be unhappy?

Not only Sorim, but the entire giant clan was full of energy. For example, Athena, who is in charge of the defense and restoration of the Eastern Temple, has not seen her for half a month.

I hope that it will always bring infinite vitality to people!

Ren smiled and said: "Congratulations to the elder for leading the giant and becoming the master of the storm plane again."

"Hahaha..." Solim laughed heartily, but he didn't get carried away. "Without your majesty's help, I and the giants would definitely not be able to do it. I thank your majesty for your support once again. If the situation is more stable, we will hold a huge giant celebration, His Majesty, the most honored guest, please be sure to attend."

"It's my honor." Ren accepted the invitation readily.

Sorim nodded. In his eyes, Ren was no longer an ally, but an extremely thick thigh, and the giant had to hug it tightly. The so-called Giant Celebration is actually to please Rennes and bring them closer.

The two exchanged a few words, and Solim said, "Your Majesty, please follow me."

Elder Titan opened a portal.

Ren followed into the portal and came to a magnificent palace hall. This palace should be behind the Sky Temple and is the core of the Temple of Storms.

Looking around, Ren found that the environment here was similar to the "Furnace Temple" in the northern temple, but the area was about three times larger, the dome was higher, and the ground was also spotless and transparent glass. You could see a huge Titan furnace underground. , which is currently running.

The size of this Titan Furnace is about the same as the giant Titan Furnace on the Augustus, with a height of more than 20 meters. The surging energy is guided from the furnace, enters the energy pipeline, and flows in all directions, providing energy for the entire Temple of Storms.

Ren opened the all-seeing eye and observed the Titan furnace.

Obviously, this Titan furnace has not been improved, neither the conversion efficiency of the source crystal nor the energy output power is far inferior to the Augustus.

Seeing that he was looking seriously, Sorim said softly: "Although the cloud giants have a complete inheritance of Titan rune knowledge, their accomplishments in this area will never be comparable to the storm giants. Moreover, the cloud giants can't enter the temple. For a year, they just managed to get the Titan Furnace running and mastered the temple. Compared with 10,000 years ago, their rune technology has not improved much."

"I see." Ren nodded in understanding.

Times are advancing and technology is developing.

Even without his own brain-splitting chip, Elder Sorim has been studying the Titan Forge for thousands of years, maintaining the operation of the northern temple, and accumulated a lot of experience and technology. His understanding of the Titan Forge must have surpassed that of the Giant Empire. .

Of course, he is the best at researching the Titan Furnace.

Solim glanced at Ren and sighed in his heart. He naturally knew that Ren's superb attainments in Titan rune technology had far surpassed himself.

Ren focused on observing, but didn't notice Elder Titan's thoughts.

Soon, he discovered the clue.

There are as many as hundreds of energy channels leading out of the Titan furnace, extremely complex, like a dazzling spider web.

The largest pipe was nearly half a meter in diameter. It was hidden among many pipes, and it did not extend to the surrounding temple buildings, but went underground.

Ren's eyes fell on the pipe, and he looked down along it, not knowing how deep it was.

The thickness of the ground that even the all-seeing eye cannot see through is at least over a hundred meters. This should be the secret of the Temple of Storms!

"Your Majesty has good eyesight!"

Solim noticed Ren's gaze and couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

Ren asked directly: "Elder, where does this energy pipeline lead to?" In fact, he also discovered a problem. This energy pipeline has not been activated, and there is no energy flow in it.

"This is the secret I want to reveal to His Majesty today." Solim's expression was very serious, but his eyes were somewhat confused, "This secret is related to the origin of the storm giant. It was as early as the giant empire period. Many Titan elders have conducted in-depth research, and our lord Angeloz has also participated in it, but they have not been able to draw a definite conclusion."

Ren was quite surprised, didn't he even figure out the gods?

He was immediately aroused with strong curiosity, and said with a smile: "Elder, since it is such an important secret, is it appropriate to tell me?"

"If His Majesty can crack it, it would be great." Solim said with anticipation on his face, "Your Majesty has created so many miracles, if anyone in the world can unlock this secret, I think there is no one other than His Majesty." Individuals can do it."

Hearing what he said, Ren felt pressure instead, shook his head and said, "The elder thinks too highly of me."

"hehe……"

Solim smiled and said nothing.

There was a snap.

The old Titan turned into a flash of lightning and flew towards the energy pipe, moved along the metal surface of the pipe, and disappeared underground in a blink of an eye.

Ren also triggered a flash of lightning and followed closely.

He controlled his speed to slow down, and sank all the way underground along the pipeline, but he reached the end soon, and with a flash of lightning, his eyes suddenly opened up.

What appeared in front of me was an empty underground space, like a cave in the Underdark.

The difference is that this space is obviously excavated manually.

Its volume is a standard hemisphere, with a diameter of about 500 meters, and the ground is also a standard circle, very flat, all paved with flat huge stones, and the walls and dome are neatly cut, like an inverted Buckle the empty bowl.

The underground space is extremely hot and stuffy, and the air is thin, but very dry.

Ren looked back.

In the middle above the cave, there is an energy pipeline hanging down. It is the only channel connecting with the outside world, and I came in from there.

The energy pipeline goes down vertically and connects to a huge building on the ground.

pyramid!

This was the first impression that flashed in Ryan's mind, and then he corrected it. It was not the mausoleum-style pyramid in Egypt in the previous life, but the Mayan pyramid.

The difference between the two is that the Mayan pyramid is smaller, and the top of the tower is flat, and there are layers of steps on all sides of the tower.

There is also a temple on the top platform of the square tower.

The pyramid in the cave is different from the Mayan pyramid in some details, but the whole is almost the same. It is about 100 meters high, and there is also a temple on the top of the tower. The energy conduit hangs down from the sky and connects to the temple.

Ren's eyes were full of surprises. The architectural style of this pyramid was completely different from that of the Temple of Storms, and it was obviously not built by giants.

"Elder, what is this place?"

"It's right below the Temple of Storms, about 1,200 blades deep underground." Sorim replied, the "blade" he said is the length unit of giants and dwarves, derived from the length of the weapon used, a giant's "blade" ", roughly equal to two and a half meters.

One thousand two hundred blades is three thousand meters.

"It's built so deep underground..." Ren observed the pyramid and the entire cave, and found a strange rune engraved in many places.

A rune array is arranged on the floor of the cave, as are the walls around it. The energy fluctuations emitted form a space blockade, and have the effects of shielding, interference and camouflage. It cannot be found here from the outside, nor can it be transmitted in.

There are similar runes on the surface of the pyramid, and they are denser, and go deep into the tower, but there is no energy injection, and it is in a silent state.

Ren has never seen this kind of rune.

He carefully identified it for a while, and it was obviously not a Titan rune, and the two had no connection at all. The various writing systems of human beings are also very different. High elf characters, dragon runes, demon characters, etc., the dozens of languages ​​and characters I have mastered, all don't match.

"Elder, isn't this built by giants?" Ren asked.

"Of course not."

Sorim quickly approached the pyramid, landed in front of the temple on the top of the tower, patted the rocky outer wall of the temple lightly, and sighed: "This 'energy altar' has a longer history than giants, my lord Ankh Roz guessed it was here long before the giant was born."

As soon as Rennes landed, he immediately felt an ancient and vicissitudes of life, as if the building in front of him came from the distant past.

It has survived the ravages of time, to this day, and will continue to do so.

Hearing Solim's words, he couldn't help but turn pale in shock.

Even earlier than the giants!

You know, giants are one of the earliest races born in the world of Ellenus, similar to giant dragons, they appeared in the world in the early days of the first era, about 30,000 years ago, even the oldest gods did not How many people can exist for such a long time.

The history of the building under your feet is more than 30,000 years old!

Maybe even longer!

Ren was amazed, thirty thousand years! At that time, there should only be trolls living in the world of Arranus, right? After all, only trolls are older than giants in all the world, and the First Era was the age of trolls.

A light flashed in his mind.

troll!

"This is a troll rune!" Ren blurted out.

There is a "translation dictionary" in the mutant mobile phone, which can help him easily master the language and characters. He has collected a lot of information over the years. He is proficient in almost all known languages ​​and character systems. He has profound knowledge in this area. He thinks he is second. People dare to say it is the first.

The reason why it was not immediately identified just now is because the troll rune has been lost for a long time.

The most glorious first era of trolls lasted nearly 10,000 years, and it was also the first era that was destroyed by the invasion of the abyss. According to the research of archaeologists, it happened about 20,500 years ago, that is, 18,000 years before history.

Since then, the troll has never recovered, scattered all over the world and on many planes.

Not only did the trolls fail to regain their glory, but they got worse and worse, their wisdom and civilization were greatly degraded, countless branches evolved, and even the writing system was lost.

Although today's trolls are still an intelligent race, they are not much better than beasts in the eyes of humans.

The vast majority of trolls live a life of raw hair and blood, no different from wild animals.

Only a few trolls retain the fire of civilization, and different branches of trolls speak different languages, which do not communicate with each other, and only have languages, which have lost their writing system.

Ren can speak four troll languages, but can't write any troll script.

He could recognize the troll runes because this kind of writing is very special. It is a combination of pictographic and phonetic writing. Each character is like a picture. The combination of symbols is very complicated. The squares are approximately round and the lines are smooth. Round and has a unique three-dimensional effect.

Many surviving troll ruins and stone carvings have this kind of writing.

Ryan has seen it, so he has an impression.

The runes in front of me are actually very different from the troll characters. They are more concise and streamlined. However, the styles of the two characters are three points similar, and they should be in the same line. I just don’t know which one is in front and which one is in the back. .

Even if it's not a troll rune, it sure has something to do with it!

"Your Majesty is indeed very knowledgeable."

Solim's face was surprised. Unexpectedly, Ren recognized the origin of the rune at a glance, and then explained: "This is indeed a troll rune, but it is older than trolls. My lord Angeloz speculates, It was this rune that the trolls learned to develop civilization and create the first era."

Ren was taken aback. He was older than trolls. Isn't that the prehistoric era!

Was there a species capable of building such a pyramid back then?

Is it a god?

Except for the four gods of the abyss, there are not many gods who have survived from the prehistoric era. The Mother Earth is one of them, but this is obviously not the style of the Mother Earth, and there is no information related to the Mother God. .

"My lord guesses that the builder of the energy altar is a great race with wisdom beyond mortals, even gods can hardly match."

"They traveled through the distant void and came to Ellen Erth, bringing the fire of civilization to this primitive world."

"They created many species and imparted the first magical knowledge."

"But for some unknown reason, before the end of the first era, this powerful and ancient race of sages suddenly left Ellen Erth, leaving only the energy altar and this rune system. Whether it is trolls, Elves, dragons or dragons, the rune system of every intelligent race is derived from this, and it is the source of all magical knowledge."

"My Lord Angeloz calls it the 'Old Sage Rune'."

Sorim's voice was very soft, but to Ren's ears, it was like thunder on the ground!
