2581 An accident in the mine
The giant soldier God was a type of giant puppet. It might be mysterious to the natives, but it was nothing in the eyes of the cultivators in the city.
Even a King level cultivator could destroy it single-handedly, but in the eyes of a creator, it was nothing.
However, things were different now. With their cultivation sealed, the ones who were reduced to ants were the cultivators of Lou city.
Tang Zhen wasn’t clear about the true power of the giant divine weapon. However, judging from its terrifying size, its destructive power must be quite terrifying.
Tang Zhen had seen similar things more than once in the world of towers and other planes. He had even been chased by a giant puppet during a mission.
If it was used in war, it would be almost invincible. If one wanted to destroy it, they would have to pay a heavy price.
If it fell into the hands of the enemy and was used to deal with the Heaven’s Wall city, it would definitely be considered a disaster.
Tang Zhen did not hesitate after he realized this. He immediately headed to the location of the incident.
For this operation, he also brought a team of cultivators from Lou Cheng, which showed that he attached great importance to this matter.
After the cultivators of loucheng learned about the process of the incident, they also looked solemn. Obviously, they also realized the danger of this matter.
A weapon of war like the giant soldier God was equivalent to a nuclear bomb. It could not fall into the hands of the enemy no matter what.
Even if Tang Zhen did not take action, they would definitely not stand idly by. The result of ignoring him was very likely to be reaping what they sowed.
Between the Heaven’s Wall city and the two mountains, in addition to the underground city’s passage, there was also a ropeway to and from.
However, most of the time, no one would use the ropeway, because it was too dangerous.
Compared to the tall mountain peak, a distance of a thousand meters wasn’t too far. However, for travelers who used the ropeway, it was a very far and dangerous distance.
If one were to slide from the peak to the foot of the mountain, an accident would happen if they were not careful. Those without courage would not dare to try.
As for the rope used to build the ropeway, it was also an ancient relic, and the later generations had no ability to replicate it.
Therefore, most of the time, ropeways were only used to transport goods, and pedestrians basically went back and forth through the underground city or by boat.
Tang Zhen and the rest naturally did not need to go through such trouble. They only needed to take the runic airship and they could directly reach the peak of the mountain on the opposite side.
Seeing Tang Zhen and the others getting off the airship, the officer in charge of the defense quickly came forward. After saluting and greeting them, he explained the specific situation.
Although they had already understood the relevant information, Tang Zhen and the others still listened carefully to it once to avoid any omissions.
It turned out that after discovering the statue’s abnormality, some believers immediately began to investigate, but the result was nothing.
It wasn’t strange to return empty-handed, because in the past years, the successive city Lords of the Heaven’s Wall city had done this.
They had sent people to investigate the statue countless times, and each time, they had made sufficient preparations, but they had never found anything.
The only thing he could be sure of was that the statue was definitely not made of stone, but a special material that he had never seen before.
This material was extremely tough. Even after thousands of years of erosion, only small cracks were left on the surface.
There had been people who had tried to enter the statue from the outside by destroying it after a long and fruitless search.
It was only when he tried to do so that he realized that no matter how he tried, he could not damage the statue at all.
However, when he used extraordinary power to destroy it, he suffered a strong backlash, which led to disastrous consequences.
Since similar things had happened several times, no one dared to destroy it violently. Instead, they looked for a more secure way.
There were also people who speculated that there must be a secret entrance to the statue, but no one had ever discovered it.
The most likely location of the entrance should be in the inner part of the mountain, in the mines that had existed for who knows how many years.
In order to find the entrance to the giant soldier God, tianxu city had issued a long-term reward. As long as someone found the hidden entrance, they would be given a generous reward.
In addition, there were treasures left behind thousands of years ago in these mines. If they were lucky enough to find them, they could make a fortune.
Over the long years, many people who wanted to get rich overnight took the risk to enter the mine to look for clues.
However, the mine tunnels in the mountain were crisscrossed, and it was a mess. If there were no experienced miners to guide the way, there was a high chance that they would not be able to return.
In the deep cave, there were countless bones buried, which had long rotted into mud.
In the Heaven’s Wall city, there was even a special profession that specialized in exploring the mine caves and searching for the relics of those who were unlucky.
When they had received the warning, the church of alarm had organized a group of professionals to investigate the interior of the mountain.
However, not long after they entered the mountain, they were suddenly attacked by monsters. Of the more than 20 believers who went to investigate, only two believers survived.
The appearance of a monster in sky void city was definitely a big deal. It was so serious that it immediately alarmed all the higher-ups.
After receiving the news, the church of the alarm Bell’s believers immediately took action and sealed off all the entrances to the mine.
Although they did not have the ability to clear the monsters in the mine, they could ensure that the monsters would not be able to rush out of the mine and prevent them from causing greater harm.
They then sought help from the main city, hoping that they could send cultivators to help and eliminate all the monsters as soon as possible.
As long as these monsters were not eliminated, the Heaven’s Wall city would not have a Day of Peace.
Tang Zhen didn’t dare to be careless. He led a group of cultivators to clear out the monsters.
As for the other purpose, it was to find out the reason for the abnormality of the giant soldier God and see if he could control it.
If he could gain control of this super weapon, he would not have to worry about the safety of the Heaven’s Wall city. What monster could withstand a blow from a giant soldier God?
However, this matter was very difficult. After all, the sky Market City Lord had been searching for many years without success. It didn’t make sense for him to find it the moment he came.
Tang Zhen didn’t have too much hope. The most important task now was to clean up the monsters.
Although there were only about 20 cultivators in Lou Cheng, their combat power could not be underestimated. Each of them was like a monster Reaper.
With them in charge of cleaning up, it would not take long for the monsters in the mine to be cleared.
As for the other mountain, Lou Cheng’s cultivators had also been sent there with the same task.
He didn’t waste any time and went straight to the location.
Tang Zhen and the others arrived at the entrance of a deep and serene mine. After firing out a phosphorus fireball for illumination, they entered the mine in turn.
For the cultivators of loucheng, the mine monsters were a piece of cake. Even if their strength was sealed, they were still confident.
On the other hand, the church’s follower who led the way was nervous. From time to time, he would try to eavesdrop, trying to find the hidden monster.
The mine wasn’t dark at all. Fluorescent mosses covered the damp rock walls, and from time to time, smoke-like fluorescent objects floated by.
These fluorescent objects were called spirits by the miners. They liked to chase around living creatures and corpses, and from time to time, they would transform into all kinds of dead faces.
It was said that they were formed by the souls of the dead. They had no consciousness and floated around in the mine all day long.
The sudden appearance of a large number of spirit souls could only mean that there were corpses nearby or other living creatures.
Before the church’s followers who were leading the way could warn them, a group of monsters suddenly rushed out of the mine in front of them and headed straight for the cultivators in loucheng!
