Chapter 2499: Temple of War
Countless zombies crawled out of the ground, with their ferocious fangs bent to an incredible degree. Moreover, unlike the skeletons of normal people, the skeletons of these zombies were more than twice as large as those of humans.
At first glance, it looks like a row of iron towers rising from the ground.
Lu Yun quickly spread out the broken cross medal in his hand, thinking that these zombies would obediently retreat back into the soil.
Unexpectedly, the zombies who saw the cross medal were like werewolves seeing the full moon. A terrifying murderous aura burst out from their bodies and they rushed towards Lu Yun with bared teeth.
"???"
Lu Yun cursed inwardly: "Your uncle's centurion!"
Then he turned and ran.
After running for an hour or so, the number of zombies behind Lu Yun not only did not decrease, but instead doubled.
Lu Yun is so confused!
As Lu Yun was being chased by this group of zombies, he unknowingly came to a dilapidated hall.
It may not be appropriate to describe this hall as dilapidated. Although it is called a hall, the roof has long disappeared, and only half of one of the four walls is covered with dust and cobwebs. The other three walls are left with only the foundation and the rubble piled next to them.
But the strange thing was that ever since Lu Yun stepped into the hall, the zombies that had been chasing him relentlessly actually retreated cursing.
Lu Yun looked at the zombie's back as it left in disappointment and couldn't help but complain, "Why does this scene look so familiar?"
"You are such a forgetful person! This was exactly what happened when you met the centurion just now!"
Die Mengqiu's words made Lu Yun's heart tighten. He subconsciously looked around, fearing that any more ghosts and monsters would appear.
Fortunately, after carefully observing the sky and the ground, and finding nothing unusual, Lu Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
The first thing he did after calming down was to tear off the cross medal hanging around his neck and throw it heavily to the ground.
"Fuck you, send it all away!" Lu Yun cursed, "You are so shameless that you asked me to find a successor for you. When I get out, I will burn your bloody flow and let the little Yin Chai ghost find a successor for you!"
After venting his anger, Lu Yun picked up the cross medal on the ground and put it in his trouser pocket.
This actually made Die Mengqiu very confused!
"I didn't realize you're such a hypocrite!"
Although he was angry, after he calmed down, Lu Yun found something was wrong.
Whether it was the evil ghost he encountered at the beginning or the centurion he met later, they were all spirits without entity or even a skeleton. However, the zombie that was chasing him just now had shriveled skin and a hideous face.
But they all have real bodies, and you can see them without Die Mengqiu's Yin-Yang Eyes.
So it is obvious that these zombies with strange skeletons do not belong to the Jiren Kingdom where the Centurion is located, but to their hostile force, the Barbarian Tribe.
"Pfft!"
"Haha~"
After listening to Lu Yun's analysis, Die Mengqiu couldn't help laughing out loud.
"No wonder these zombies are chasing you. It seems they think you are provoking them."
"..."
Lu Yun rolled his eyes. How could he know at first that these zombies were transformed from soldiers of the barbarian tribe!
But it was strange, there was nothing unusual about this hall! Why did the zombies stop chasing after a while?
Could it be that he was too far away from his coffin and the signal reception was poor?
Such a ridiculous reason was strangled in Lu Yun's mind before it even emerged. If he said it out loud, he would be laughed to death by Die Mengqiu!
"Come over here and take a look!"
Die Mengqiu's voice suddenly came into my ears.
Lu Yun looked in the direction of the voice and discovered that Die Mengqiu was floating on a pile of rocks with white light flashing in her eyes.
"Why? Are you looking for another stone like the one I carry on my back?"
Lu Yun joked, but his body honestly came to Die Mengqiu.
Although Lu Yun has some complaints about this partner who likes to make sarcastic remarks all the time, his business ability is still beyond reproach.
Die Mengqiu naturally covered Lu Yun's left eye with her left hand.
As a white light flashed, the pile of stones in front of him seemed to come alive and were built up in front of Lu Yun.
Soon a plaque was formed with three words written in a flamboyant style: Temple of the God of War!
When Lu Yun saw this name, his first impression was just one word: Er; two words: Zhonger; three words: Erbiba!
Lu Yun was about to laugh when the cross medal in his pocket began to glow.
"Ok?"
He took out the medal and held it in his hand. A name lit up at the end of the lower right corner of the plaque: Cliff!
Lu Yun raised his eyebrows. This Cliff should be the name of the centurion just now.
It seems that this so-called Temple of War was originally built by the Kingdom of Jiren.
"So it seems that the Jiren Kingdom finally lost to the barbarians!"
Die Mengqiu suddenly spoke.
Lu Yun nodded in agreement. After all, the palace was in such a state of ruin.
But he quickly rejected this view, "No! If the barbarians destroy the Temple of War, the zombies will not be able to retreat!"
“That seems to be the case!”
Die Mengqiu frowned, not quite understanding.
"Besides this plaque, have you found anything else in this Temple of War?"
Lu Yun asked, there was too little information that could be obtained from this plaque that had long since turned into rubble.
"No! The other stones have been weathered so badly that there is not even a trace left."
Lu Yun was a little disappointed with the answer given by Die Mengqiu.
Lu Yun wandered around the hall with only one ruined wall in despair, but the result went against his wishes and he found nothing.
Looking at Lu Yun walking back and forth, Die Mengqiu's eyes flashed with displeasure. Doesn't this clearly show that her business ability is not good enough?
"Did you find any useful clues?"
Lu Yun shook his head.
Time has passed so long that the years have worn away all traces.
However, this can be used as a dividing line. The front is the territory of the barbarians, and the back is the world of the Jiren Kingdom.
A proud look appeared on Die Mengqiu's face, as if saying, now you believe in my business ability, right?
"What are you going to do next?"
Lu Yun looked at the vast plain behind the hall. Against the backdrop of the gray weather, he felt an indescribable sense of desolation.
Without hesitation, I took a step forward and set out on my journey again.
With the cross medal given by the ghost of the centurion, he would definitely not be chased all over the street like a rat in the territory of the Kingdom of Jillian.
However, neither he nor Die Mengqiu beside him noticed that at the bottom of the side of the stone that Lu Yun usually carried on his back, there were three words. They were the name of the centurion on the plaque - Cliff!
