Chapter 584: Temple of Azus

Holland looked at Li Si in front of him in disbelief, and he couldn't control the expression on his face.

This was his biggest secret, but he didn't expect that Li Si would tell it like this.

He did find a place where there were suspected ancient ruins, but he hadn't made up his mind to explore it.

He had been active in Carlisle for many years. As an intelligence businessman, he naturally knew that when each desert ruin appeared, although there might be huge wealth hidden in it, the risks were also corresponding.

Every time a desert ruin appeared, it represented the desperate fight of countless mercenaries.

But Holland was reluctant to give up the exploration or cooperate with others now.

After all, the wealth in the desert ruins could make him a real noble, instead of just maintaining the external decency like now.

Holland's father was a steward of a small noble. He grew up with his father and yearned for the life of nobles. This was why he chose to become an adventurer and came to Carlisle.

He is now a high-level silver professional, and it is enough to get the Knight Lord, but he is still a little unwilling.

If there is enough wealth, it is not impossible to become a baron or even a viscount of a small kingdom.

Therefore, Holland stayed in Carlisle City. As long as an unexplored relic is found here, it is not impossible to become rich overnight.

And the location of the suspected ancient relic he recently discovered is his most important secret.

He has never told anyone, so when Li Si talked about this, he was so surprised that he couldn't even control his expression.

And the other party seemed to be very sure that he had found an undiscovered relic, and even knew that it was a desert vortex.

How did he do it?

Prophecy? Stealing memory?

Holland was a little frightened in his heart, and barely controlled his expression to calm down.

It doesn't seem right. If that's the case, the other party doesn't need to ask him for more information, just go directly.

Did I talk in my sleep one day and accidentally let this matter slip?

Holland didn't know what to do, and his brain quickly thought about how to reply to Li Si.

"I don't quite understand what you are talking about."

Listening to Holland's answer, Li Si shook his head and said:

"Just now I thought you were a wise man, why, do you still want to fool me?"

"Since I can come to you, I am sure that you know this secret."

"Tell me the truth, with your strength, there is no way to explore there, I can give you more rewards."

Li Si did not lie. After all, although the Temple of Azus has been in decline for a long time, the God of Fantasy and Knowledge Azus has always existed, so the temple is still protected by the power of this god.

With Holland's strength, it is impossible to force his way in.

"."

Holland was silent for a while, his face was a little gloomy and hesitant.

Do you really have to give up?

The young man in front of him said it well, but the reward he gave was definitely not comparable to the value of the ruins.

The most important thing is that if he handed over this secret, his last hope would be shattered.

He would rather delay it for a little longer than give up this opportunity.

"What if I don't want to sell it to you?"

Holland stood up slowly, looking at Li Si in front of him with a wary look.

"That's not appropriate, I don't want to make so much trouble."

Li Si looked at Holland in front of him and said softly.

In fact, with Holland's strength, he can easily read the other party's memory through the dream world.

But Li Si was in a hurry today, and Taiya had just left. To be honest, Li Si was not in a very good mood and didn't want to spend too much effort, so he came directly.

Holland stepped back slightly and said to Li Si:

"I really don't know what you are talking about!"

"The rules of Carlisle City, you can't attack me in the city, otherwise you will be everyone's enemy!"

In fact, the rules of Carlisle City are not so strict. At most, you can't attack others in public. As for places where there are no people, no one cares at all.

Holland saw that Li Si should have just arrived in Carlisle City, so he planned to use the power of the tiger to bully him.

At this time, the confrontation between Li Si and Holland also attracted the attention of other mercenaries in the tavern, and many people cast their eyes to eat melons.

Holland was a well-informed intelligence dealer who was quite powerful.

The young men on the other side were new faces. If there was a conflict, they would definitely help Holland.

Maybe they could give Holland a discount next time they bought intelligence.

Facing Holland who wanted to escape, Li Si slowly stood up and looked down at him.

As for the malicious looks from the mercenaries around him, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Even if the mercenaries who were not even at the gold level came together, they were no threat to Li Si at all.

Li Si looked around, his body did not move at all, but an indescribable pressure was like being released by an invisible hand, and it instantly turned into a storm with him as the center, sweeping wildly in all directions.

This pressure carried a terrifying magic impact, and mixed with Li Si's strong will, it shocked the mercenaries present.

This was not only an impact on momentum, but also a shock to the soul!

Even those warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles and are experienced in battles cannot help but appear small and fragile in the face of this impact. Their faces turned pale in an instant, like the surface of a lake blown by the cold wind in winter, freezing all the blood.

The mercenaries staggered involuntarily and retreated continuously. Some of the bronze-level professionals were even forced to kneel down on one knee by the sudden pressure, and the weapons they clenched in their hands were trembling slightly. In addition to shock, there was unprecedented fear in their eyes.

At this moment, Li Si seemed to have become the core of the square, with a supreme will overlooking everyone present. The eyes of the mercenaries who were originally cunning, indifferent, or resolute, all converged on Li Si at this moment, with a trace of trembling and unconcealable awe.

How is that possible? ! !

As the person closest to Li Si, Holland has the most real feelings.

The first time he saw Li Si, he realized that the young man in front of him was very strong, better than him.

But he didn't expect to be so strong, and just relying on his momentum would make him unable to have any thoughts of resistance.

It's not that he has never seen gold-level professionals, but no one has ever made him feel so powerless.

Is it a legend?

Yes, only His Majesty the Legend can be so powerful, right?

The thoughts in Huo Lan's mind turned quickly, and he quickly knelt on the ground and said to Li Si:

"Sir, I shouldn't hide this from you."

"I do know a place where there may be ruins!"

After Li Si showed his strength, Huo Lan told Li Si everything he knew from the bottom of his heart.

If you continue to hide it in front of His Majesty the Legend, you are simply courting death.

No wonder this lord knew his secret, and it was possible to say anything to the legendary crown prince.

After listening to Huo Lan's explanation of the location of the special desert vortex, Li Si removed the silent barrier around him, threw a bag of gold coins to Huo Lan, and turned around to leave the tavern.

He left a mark on Holland, so he didn't have to worry about the other party giving him false information and running away.

Immediately, Li Si stood up and left the tavern, ignoring the mercenaries around him who did not dare to move at all.

When Li Si's figure completely disappeared from everyone's eyes, the mercenaries present took a breath, looked at each other with lingering fear, and whispered about the true identity of the young man just now.

Huo Lan, who was originally kneeling on the ground, also collapsed on the ground. For a moment, he felt that his pants were a little wet. He didn't know whether it was sweat or just because he couldn't hold it back.

At this time, several mercenaries winked at each other and walked towards the embarrassed Huo Lan.

"Huo Lan, what's going on? Does that adult have anything to do with you just now?"

The leading burly mercenary took a look at Huo Lan, who had lost his usual demeanor, and pulled him up from the ground.

"It's nothing, this legendary majesty just came to me to buy some information."

Huo Lan smiled, thanked several people, and left the tavern unsteadily.

"Okay, you go back and rest first!"

The strong mercenary smiled and said to Huo Lan. After he walked away, he said to a companion:

"Yon, you are following Holland, be careful not to be discovered by him."

"It's definitely not an easy thing for a strong person like that to find him. If we can get this information from Huo Lan, even if we just pick up the rest, we'll make a lot of money!"

"It's okay to take some risks. Let's go back and prepare."

"Don't worry, boss, boss."

Everyone around the strong man agreed, and then left the tavern with excitement.

On the other side, Holland immediately trotted away after leaving the tavern, no longer looking as decadent as before.

How could those mercenaries' thoughts be hidden from him?

He knew that after this incident, he would definitely be targeted by those cunning mercenaries.

That’s trouble!

He did not return to his residence in the city, but rushed directly towards the secret passage prepared in advance.

In order to guard against similar things happening, he had already stored the wealth he had accumulated over the years in a hidden place outside the city.

After making sure to get rid of the tail that was following him, Holland opened the money bag left by Li Si.

Among them were two hundred gold coins, and an emerald of equal value.

"That's very generous!"

Huo Lan sighed and said that this was slightly more valuable than the information on the location of the suspected ruins. After experiencing what happened this time, he was already satisfied.

He had just figured out that since the ruins could attract the attention of His Majesty the Legend, even if it contained precious treasures, it would not be something that a professional like him, who did not even have a gold rank, could peep into.

Therefore, he had no intention of publishing this information to cause trouble to Li Si.

Just kidding, he is a legendary strongman. If something unexpected happens, he will definitely know that it is him who is causing trouble, and he will be dead.

As for whether to go to that ruins to pick up leaks in the future, Huo Lan has not yet decided to pay attention.

It's better to leave first, anyway, I can't stay in Carlisle City anymore.

Huo Lan did not continue to struggle, but took advantage of the night to rush out of the city.

Two hundred kilometers west of Carlisle,

The silver moonlight shone, and a desert vortex appeared between several tall sand dunes, extremely hidden. The surrounding sand dunes began to gradually deform in this slow but steady rotation.

It was like the ripples gently stirred in the yellow sand ocean, or like the breath of the sand beast in the ancient legend, and the surrounding sand dunes were swallowed up bit by bit. The falling sand jumped and intertwined in the air, forming delicate arcs, and finally returned to the vortex, repeating the cycle.

Because most of the ancient ruins are located under the desert and covered by endless yellow sand, even if they are located directly above the ruins, it is difficult for people to discover the secrets 100 meters deep under their feet.

However, the appearance of desert ruins is not without signs.

In addition to the effect of wind and sand, this sudden appearance of desert vortex is one of the most common signs of the appearance of ruins. After all, the ruins that can survive for countless years are basically maintained by extraordinary power.

Due to various accidents, the internal space of the ruins collapsed or damaged, and the yellow sand from the outside would enter the ruins through the cracks. Specifically, the ruins are constantly swallowing the yellow sand outward, forming the desert vortex.

Especially in the area around Carlisle City, this situation is most likely to be caused by the existence of ruins below.

But discovery is one thing, and how to explore is another.

For most mercenaries, following the desert vortex down into the ruins is the most dangerous and brainless choice, which almost means a dead end.

Most mercenaries will dig the ruins themselves, or mercenary groups that are confident in their own strength will choose to hire ordinary people to dig the yellow sand.

Although this will take a long time, it is indeed the safest method.

But for Li Si, it is completely unnecessary.

Even if he encounters danger, he can just jump out through space teleportation.

With his attention, Li Si rushed directly into the desert vortex from mid-air.

After a few minutes of darkness, Li Si's eyes lit up, his body relaxed, and he felt the fresh air again.

Li Si looked forward, and a magnificent temple appeared in front of him.

This ancient and mysterious temple is hidden in the hollow deep in the desert, as if it is a miracle standing quietly at the end of time. Although the temple has experienced countless erosions of wind and sand, it still maintains an indescribable grandeur and solemnity.

The most eye-catching thing is the huge sheepskin scroll logo in the center of the temple. It is presented in an ancient and complex pattern, which seems to contain ancient wisdom and secrets. Although the years have left mottled traces on its surface, it cannot conceal the majesty and sacredness from ancient times.

The walls of the temple are made of light gray-white stone bricks, emitting a soft and warm glow, which is in sharp contrast with the cold yellow sand around it, bringing a touch of sacred solemnity to this desolate land.

Starting from the gate of the temple, hundreds of neat and uniform stone steps slowly extend down to Li Si, like a road to the highest, leading pilgrims step by step to the depths of their hearts. Each step carries the weight of history, as if whispering the glory and vicissitudes of the past. On both sides of the steps, there are no complicated decorations, only simple and powerful lines, which further emphasize the solemnity and solemnity.

In this vast space, time seemed to stand still. Only the fine sand falling from the top of the hole made a continuous sound, which was like a mysterious and lonely call from ancient times.

This is it!

Li Si stood at the lowest end of the stone steps of the temple and looked up slightly.

Is this the Temple of Azus, the God of Fantasy and Knowledge?

It was much more shocking to see it in person than to see it in the forum!

But I remember that it was mentioned in the forum that there seemed to be a special test to enter.
