The knocking of the wooden staff sounded rhythmically. Many strode towards the stone door at the other end. Carolina looked back at the statue as if she was thinking about something. But she quickly recovered and followed Many's footsteps. Kuzkas did not seem to be curious about his surroundings and continued to walk at the back of the group.
The stone door on this side of the hall was five to six meters high, and there were tall windows on both sides. But at this moment, looking through the windows, there was only mud that had accumulated at some point in time. It was dark and had an old smell. As the statue gradually moved away, the surrounding temperature seemed to gradually drop.
Carolina once again cast the illumination spell, illuminating the scene outside the stone door.
There were footprints of Caucasian Trolls on the ground. Many followed the footprints and walked forward. In front of them was a corridor. It was called a corridor because the places on both sides of the corridor where they could see the scenery were squeezed over with rocks and mud. At this moment, the ground was very soft, and no stone slabs could be felt. Because the soil here was thicker!
At the end of the long tunnel was another house. It was much smaller than the previous temple hall. Many squinted his eyes along the way because the scenes in his memory kept appearing in front of his eyes.
Outside the corridor was originally a pool of clear water, and the grass on the ground was fragrant. The moonlight made this place seem even more tranquil. Beautiful Elves in simple white robes walked by, holding a simple bottle in their hands. Every step was so steady and without any ripples. Their eyelashes were drooping, and their eyes were docile without the slightest expression.
There were also Elves in other clothes. Their hands were in a praying posture as they walked towards the hall just now. In the end, no one knew what they were muttering. Their clothes looked very simple, and the style was also very simple.
Are these the Elves from thousands of years ago?
After entering the house, the light from the fire illuminated everything in the house. It seemed that this was just a miniature version of the Caucasian Trolls when they were looking for something. Many saw the rubble on the ground and the wall that had collapsed after being forcibly pulled apart.
It was likely that the Caucasian Trolls wanted to find something in the crack in the wall and forcefully pulled the wall down with their hands!
There was a lot of debris on the ground. Many frowned as they looked at it, but they couldn't tell what period it was from. Because the things of the Elves seemed to have been the same for thousands of years, and there was no difference. These things were either corroded by time, or they didn't change at all. Many were not archaeologists, so they didn't stop for too long and continued to walk down.
The illusion appeared one after another, and Many became the leader of the team with ease. As the three gradually moved forward, they discovered that this seemed to be a very large underground city. Although it wasn't deliberately built underground from the beginning, the solid structure made this city that was originally above ground … or rather, this temple area could definitely be called a maze!
Many followed the footprints of the Caucasian Trolls through corridors and halls, and finally stopped in front of what seemed to be a newly dug hole.
Needless to say, from the freshness of the soil, this was also dug by the Caucasian Trolls after they entered.
This should be the periphery of the main building of the temple. Many could sense that there were fewer buildings like the one they had just seen, and there were a few roads that were simply dead ends. The tunnel also gradually became narrower, and they could see some traces of the Caucasian Trolls digging in order to pass through.
The big hole on the ground was pitch-black, but the surrounding air was circulating, indicating that there was still oxygen below. Many frowned. In his memory, there was actually a large sculpture in this hole, but at this moment, there seemed to be only a broken stone platform left.
After jumping down this almost vertical hole, Many discovered that it wasn't as simple as a hole dug. It seemed that the Caucasian Trolls had only forcefully opened an opening above, and there was originally this … secret passage?
Carolina's fire illuminated the scene in the big hole, and she immediately discovered that there was another hole that ran horizontally five or six meters from the ground!
The three of them passed through it, and jumped down from what seemed to be a hole in the ceiling of a secret room.
Carolina directly floated down, while Many directly jumped down. The distance between the ground and the ceiling was less than four meters, so it wasn't a problem for him at all. Kuzkaz followed behind, but the movements of the two of them when they landed were obviously different.
Many used dark energy when they jumped, and when they landed, they didn't make the slightest sound, but they did raise a lot of dust around them. On the other hand, Kuzkaz's body was stretched, and he landed like a big bird. Although the sound of his feet hitting the ground was much louder than Many's, no dust was raised.
Many lowered his head to look around, and then looked at Kuzkaz, who had picked up a dagger. He stopped and thought for a while, then looked to the side.
This seemed to be the place where the Caucasian Trolls found the black stone.
Many sculptures of unknown shapes on the ground were violently broken into pieces, and it was obvious that it was the work of the Caucasian Trolls. Many were not in a hurry to find anything, but patiently lowered their heads to observe the fragments.
One side of the fragments was gray, and it was obvious that it had been eroded by time and dust. The rest of the fragments were white, and seemed to be made of a material similar to marble.
"Can you gather them together?"
Many pointed to the messy fragments on the ground and said.
"Let's try."
Carolina didn't have any other feelings about this place. She keenly noticed that there were vents on the wall, and a faint airflow blew from above. The air here could prevent people from fainting because of the lack of oxygen. She raised her hand, and the fragments slowly floated in the air, and then began to slightly adjust according to a certain order.
Many could see that Carolina was trying to put the broken sculptures together. He didn't say much, but just frowned and watched. Ever since the three of them entered this secret room, they almost didn't take a step forward, and even their breathing became much lighter than usual. As high-grade professionals, Many and Kuzkaz were keen to maintain a strong vigilance.
The fragments in the air gradually gathered, and Many could roughly see that it was a … human statue?
… No!
When they finally gathered together and pieced together the shape, Many suddenly realized that it wasn't a human!
It wasn't even an elf, but … a troll!
And it was a forest troll.
Long arms, a slender body, fangs protruding forward, hair standing upright, two long frog-like legs slightly bent, as if ready to attack, and a posture of holding a weapon in his hands. However, there didn't seem to be that weapon among the fragments, so he just stood there empty-handed. The whole sculpture was very realistic, and even the expression on the troll's face could be seen clearly!
What's going on?
Many's memories that didn't seem to have any clues appeared. This troll sculpture was really strange. Since this was the elven temple, why would a troll sculpture appear?
The troll's body proportions were very balanced, and it seemed to be more robust than Yuna's. Its expression didn't have the slightest sense of malevolence, and because of the existence of the cracks, it seemed to have gone through a lot of vicissitudes. Many keenly noticed that the sculpture was actually hollow!
So the interior was that strange black magic crystal?
Many looked around, and the huge footprints on the ground were messy, and there was no useful information to be seen. But one thing was certain, this seemed to be the end of the troll's group.
"Can it be fixed?" Many people asked Karolina.
"No problem."
