Chapter 1,778: Getting There First

"Yes, our goals are the same, and they and I are rivals."

Qin Yang answered calmly, and at the same time organized the backpacks carried by the three of him, discarding many things that could be discarded, and only brought a small instrument to test his specific position, some dry food and water, a powerful flashlight and a Top folding tent.

Bass said: "There have been many expeditions to the Holy Mountain before, but they all returned without success. What you are looking for may not really exist."

Qin Yang turned his head and said, "Has any expedition team been to the sacred mountain before?"

Bass smiled and said: "Yes, although Liat is a backward small African country, there are still many foreigners coming here. Some people heard the legend of the sacred mountain here, and thus became interested in the sacred mountain. There are also some people who may have read some ancient documents and came directly to the sacred mountain, but many groups of people have come one after another over the years, but I have never heard of anyone finding anything and returning empty-handed. "

Qin Yang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Ancient documents?"

Bas nodded: "I have lived here for a long time, and because it involves the Holy Mountain, I know more about it. Especially in the past few years, there were several explorers who hired a mercenary team and many local people to go to the Holy Mountain. Because the sacred mountain is a sacred place for our locals, the locals clashed with them, and the mercenary team shot and killed several locals. This incident was quite a big deal at the time, and many people knew..."

Before Qin Yang spoke, Bass said proudly: "Maybe there are gods on the sacred mountain really protecting us. Later, those vicious mercenaries suffered disaster on the sacred mountain. It is said that the gods were angry and the sky collapsed. Most of these people They all died on the sacred mountain..."

Qin Yang was secretly shocked, but he joked casually: "Don't you believe in gods?"

Bass spread his hands: "Who knows, after all, I haven't seen it."

"Well, let's go!"

Qin Yang packed up his things and started running wildly in the jungle with Lucien. Lucien's muscles were like steel, and those thorns and stingers were unable to pierce his skin. He was like a bulldozer, just roaring like this. He pushed forward very fast.

Qin Yang followed Lucian, running quickly while thinking about Bas's words in his mind.

The Holy Mountain should be the destination of this trip, and it is also the place where the artifact is hidden, but obviously the adventurers staring here are not just himself and Eihausen. According to Bass, I am afraid that people who have come here have already come here. There are many expedition teams, not to mention those who just come to the local area and listen to the legend of the sacred mountain and simply want to visit the sacred mountain and look for the gods. The expedition teams that also bring mercenary teams are definitely not just looking for the gods.

All the clues John is looking for come from various ancient books and legends. There are many capable people in the world. If John can notice it, then others will notice it.

Maybe many people have been here before, maybe they are also looking for the floating sword and the key to the treasure?

Did they find it?

According to Bass's account, they all came back empty-handed, but if there was really something to gain, who would make a big deal about it?

Qin Yang originally came here with curiosity, but now his mood has cooled down a bit. Others have come here so many times before. Let's not talk about whether there is that artifact here. Even if there is, I'm afraid it should be taken away. Find others and take them away. After all, there are many capable people in this world...

In order to rush for time, the three people traveled in a straight line, encountering mountains and rivers. Who allowed a powerful and powerful person to be here? A very high mountain, maybe an ordinary expedition team It took a day to climb this mountain, but Lucian only needed to jump a few times in succession, and he reached the top directly like a projectile.

At such a traveling speed, after half a day, Qin Yang and the others had arrived at the edge of the huge peak known as the Sacred Mountain.

This mountain is very high and covers a very large area. Its tip has even penetrated the clouds. The clouds and mist linger in the mountain, giving this mountain a somewhat mysterious feeling. Around this mountain, There are also several continuous peaks, which are actually quite high, but compared with this sacred mountain, they look like little people, just like the guards of this sacred mountain.

Qin Yang told Lucien to stop and eat something, but he took the instrument and started to calculate.

At this time, we are very close to that coordinate. A rough calculation can determine that the coordinate is indeed located on this sacred mountain.

It's very difficult to find a sword that doesn't take up much space on such a large mountain peak based on just one coordinate.

Qin Yang took out his phone again and started to check John's notes.

"Through the morning light, the eyes of the gods led me to find the way forward..."

"Kneel down before the gods' knees and pray for their blessings so that our glory can spread throughout the world..."

Qin Yang raised his gaze and looked at the sacred mountain in front of him for a long time, then turned around and asked: "Basi, are there any statues dedicated to the gods on the sacred mountain? Or is there a special place to worship and pray to the gods on the sacred mountain?"

Bas nodded: "Yes, there is a stone platform on it. There used to be a piece of wild stone there. The wild stone was severely weathered and looked very strange, like a giant. The locals thought it was the incarnation of the gods, so they would Sacrificial activities were held on that stone platform, offerings were made to the gods, and prayers were made..."

Falling at the knees of gods?

Could it be that this is the place he is referring to?

"Well, let's rest for ten minutes, and then you can show us the way to this stone platform."

"good!"

After resting for a while, the three people set off on the road again. Following Bass's guidance, it took them another three hours to finally reach the stone platform where they prayed and knelt down to worship the gods.

However, they were not the first visitors. There were already many people on the stone platform at this time.

Eihausen was standing in front of the huge weathered rock, looking at the rock carefully. Others were also searching everywhere. When he saw Qin Yang and the others landing, Eihausen turned his head and looked at Qin Yang. : "Your movements are quite fast!"

Qin Yang glanced around, looking at the people who were searching everywhere, and he felt relieved. It was obvious that these people had gained nothing, otherwise they would not have searched any more.

"Seeing you passing by in a helicopter, I naturally had to run faster...but it seems like you haven't gained much."

Gust stood nearby, looking at a stone wall, and did not pay attention to Qin Yang who appeared.

They had taken the lead and had been checking here for several hours, but found nothing, so he didn't mind Qin Yang's appearance...
