Chapter 1821 Baphomet Statue

"Forcibly restoring ancient buildings is a sacrilegious act in the eyes of the tauren, and it is the accumulation of historical beauty in the destruction of cultural relics, so they just try to maintain the original appearance of ancient ruins, but they will not try to restore these buildings, nor will they stop The cultural relics are naturally weathered and eroded."

"The sages among the tauren even believed that 'wind and flowing water are the greatest architects in the world'. Using the earth, mountains and rivers as the base material to carve out various hydrological landforms, this is a creative method that ordinary people can never imitate."

Finally, the dwarf brother said to the young mage in a half-joking tone: "Brother Joan, if one day you unfortunately fall into the hands of the tauren, I will teach you a life-saving skill. Magic, if you love classical architecture art, then it’s fine, the tauren will definitely not hurt you.”

"If I really say that, will I be honored by the tauren?"

"They will be locked in the underground palace, endlessly giving you ideas, asking you to put those weird architectural plans in their minds into practice, and supervising you digging the maze from morning till night, until you are too tired to get up!" Ke Rein laughed.

"Brother, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously! Come with me, I remember there is a statue near this ancient ruins, it's worth seeing."

"Is it an idol worshiped by the ancient civilization kingdom?" Joan asked with great interest.

Klein shook his head: "It's a statue made by Chief Gouno himself, and it's used to show the glory of Baphomet, the common idol of all the tauren. Sovereignty to warn outsiders not to trespass without invitation."

Joan followed the dwarf brother out of the ruins of the theater, waved his hand and performed a trick, creating a magical cold light floating in the air.

"Look, it's just across the stalagmite forest."

With the help of the magic light ball, Joan looked in the direction of Klein's finger and saw a ring-shaped altar built in the forest.

There are six steps from the ground to the top of the altar, and each step is made of 100 huge stone bricks.

"A total of 600 stone bricks were used to build the altar, which symbolizes the 'Endless Labyrinth' on the 600th floor of the Abyss, which is also the location of the demon lord Baphomet's magic palace 'Lakesh'." Klein introduced.

Joan nodded and looked up at the altar, only to see a tall statue standing in the center of the altar.

The image of "Howling Lord" Baphomet resembles a tauren with a black mane and a pair of steel horns.

This demon lord is wearing pitch-black armor, a steel crown on his head, and a pale skull as an ornament on the crown. He holds a large knife in his right hand, and a pair of fiery rubies symbolizing eyes are inlaid in his eyes. His fangs and sharp teeth are also stained. It turned red and looked extremely ferocious.

The Tauren worship Baphomet for a long time, which affects their lives in every way. The tauren would be told by their elders when they were young that the great race they belonged to was created by Baphomet based on his stalwart image.

Young tauren must master three traditional skills before leaving their families to live independently: digging underground palaces, finding their way in mazes, and constructing bone shrines for offering sacrifices to the Howling Lord.

Although most tauren worship Baphomet devoutly, very few tauren can obtain divine spells through their beliefs and become priests of the "Lord of Howling Beasts".

"Red Beard" Gounod is one of the few voters of Baphomet. It is said that he is not only a 12th-level priest, but also has the mythical power bestowed by Baphomet, which is exactly what he is ambitiously committed to. Unify the confidence of the Tauren clans.

"Mr. Klein, what level of mythical creature is Gu Nuo?" Joan couldn't help asking.

"I only heard that Gu Nuo is a mythical tauren, and the most powerful technique is called 'Mythical Maze Technique'. As for what level of mythical creature it is..." Klein shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I really don't know about that."

Joan was secretly disappointed. Then he thought again, "Maze" is an 8-level spell. It stands to reason that Gouno must be at least a level 15 priest before he can comprehend "Maze" in the way of domain magic, but he is only a level 12 priest. It can be seen that the "maze technique" is probably a special gift obtained by Cournot as a "chosen voter" from Buffett.

"Maze Technique" can unconditionally throw a designated creature into a different dimension, and be forced to find the only exit in the closed labyrinth of another world.

This 8-level spell itself is already very powerful, how abnormal is its mythical version?

Joan couldn't imagine it.

To be frank, he feels conflicted right now.

On the one hand, he hopes that Gu Nuo is a mythical creature of level 6 or higher, which can be used as a hunting target for his mythological trials.

On the other hand, if Gu Nuo really possessed at least 6th level of mythical power, coupled with his magical ability and prestige among the Tauren tribe, he would definitely be more difficult to mess with than the "Sultan of the Lake" Shanruyar As a ruthless character, he may not be his opponent.

Joan was most worried about Gounod's status as a "voter". Even if he can successfully kill Gu Nuo and complete the 6th-level mythological trial, he still has to face a terrible consequence - he may anger Buffett and incur revenge!

No one with a sane mind would want to be a thorn in the side of an abyss lord, and Joan was certainly no exception, so he would rather Gu Nuo not be a mythical creature above level 6.

Just when he was struggling secretly, a teleportation light suddenly rose from the ruins of the theater, and two groups of people rushed to it one after another.

"Someone is here again. It must be the team participating in the survival competition. Brother Qiao An, how about we go back and observe the competitors?"

"OK."

Joan followed the dwarf brother back to the square, and saw a group of orcs walking out of the teleportation light array head-on. The leader was an old orc holding a bone staff, wearing a gray cloak, and wearing a string of fist-sized skulls around his neck. The necklace, you can tell it's a shaman just by looking at the outfit.

Behind the old shaman were four shirtless orc men, all of whom carried wide-bladed swords slanted behind them. They looked fierce, and they were obviously high-ranking warriors or barbarians.

After the orc team completed the teleportation, they first glanced at Qiao An and the others, and then, under the leadership of the old shaman, turned around and walked to the corner of the square without saying a word, making it clear that they did not want to get close to their competitors. People are unpleasant, but it's not enough to attract people's hatred. After all, most orcs have this kind of gloomy and withdrawn personality, and they don't talk when they can move.

One step behind the orc team, it was also Joan's old acquaintance—the delegation of the Zodiac tribe from the Nida Mountains.

As soon as the five war lizardmen teleported over, a mysterious stench immediately spread in the square, making people dizzy and nauseated...
