Chapter 172 Valley
The power of a small hurricane in the valley is far greater than Duke imagined.
When I looked through mid-air, it was not necessarily so fierce, but when I stood on the ground, the strong wind blew up sand and stones and whistled by the rocks, some small gravels thrown out by the hurricane would make a sudden sound of breaking through the air. When it hit Duke, it made Duke feel painful. What made him most helpless was that because of the large number of these small gravels, there was no way to avoid them, so Duke had to support the Moonlight Shield and move forward slowly.
When I was checking the environment in the valley on the Fiery Bird, Duke only found a special place, that is, the location in the valley. There is a square altar. Looking from a distance, you can only distinguish the general appearance. Only after getting close can you know more information. There is no other place, which makes Duke feel that it is necessary to investigate.
The closer it is to the center of the valley, the stronger the wind of the hurricane will be. The louder the sound when the gravel thrown out by the hurricane hits the Moonlight Shield, and the hurricanes will become increasingly dense. Fortunately, they are not moving fast, otherwise Duke will not be able to find a way forward and will be swept up by the hurricane.
When Duke was about fifty meters away from the altar, he had an understanding of the hurricanes in the valley. These hurricanes all appeared out of thin air within fifty meters around the altar, and then rotated in one direction. Starting from the innermost point, the wind and rotation speed will slowly increase. When it finally edges of the valley, it will weaken to the slowest state and then disappear.
However, for Duke, this fifty-meter distance is no longer something that can be easily advanced by using the Moonlight Shield. The dense and frenzied hurricane will pull out a small part of the magic power from Duke's body when it rotates at high speed, and a hurricane will pull out a little. However, when the number of hurricanes are combined, the magic power drawn out from Duke's body reaches a terrifying level.
Duke didn't understand why the magic power in his body would be pulled out when there was a layer of Moonlight Shield. This is really unheard of.
Hurricanes of different sizes appeared one after another from the altar, making Duke like a small boat on the sea, swaying left and right, and if you are not careful, you may fall down at any time.
Finally, Duke advanced more than ten meters.
"Guru! Guru!"
At this moment, the little guy emerged from Duke's arms. It shook his tail a few times and pointed to the altar with his tail: "I want to get bigger, use my tail to hook it up, pull us over..., Guru~"
After the little guy finished speaking, he looked at Duke hopefully, hoping that Duke would agree.
However, Duke shook his head. He knew the power of the gravel emitted by the hurricanes best. At this time, it was already very difficult for him to barely maintain the integrity of the Moonlight Saint Shield. If the little guy becomes bigger, he will definitely have to go out of him, and he cannot cast the Moonlight Saint Shield on the little guy. In this case, the little guy will not know what the gravel will look like. Although he has to admit that at present, after the little guy becomes bigger, its tail can indeed cross this length, but this method will make the little guy under the blow of gravel. This result is difficult for Duke to accept.
He gritted his teeth and continued to lean forward.
However, the little guy said the method that inspired Duke.
There is a rope in his space ring. With the help of the broadsword, he will throw it out like a little guy's tail. As long as he hooks the pillars on the altar and the edge, the next thing will be much easier.
He thought of it and did it. Duke tied the hilt of the sword with a rope, then threw it a few times above his head, and then threw it forward. However, before the broadsword had flew seven or eight meters away, it was swept by a spinning hurricane.
If Duke hadn't reacted faster, if the broadsword was caught in the center of the hurricane, Duke himself might have been caught in.
"The broadsword is too big, and the possibility of being blown by a hurricane is much greater, but now there is no other thing to replace it...why would you quit first and think of a solution before coming in?"
After checking everything in the space ring, Duke began to wonder whether to withdraw first, and thought of a good way to come in again. Anyway, he has already arrived here now, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult at the last moment.
But in the end, Duke did not retreat.
He raised a broadsword that was higher than him, inserted it heavily on the ground, and continued to move forward with all his might.
The wind was surging around, and Duke stuck it on the ground with a broad sword, and with a trace of power above, he walked for about ten meters.
At this time, he could already see a transparent semicircle covering the surface of the altar. It was this transparent cover that blocked all the hurricanes and gravel outside. Seeing this scene, Duke finally knew why this altar could still be seen in the air among so many hurricanes and the sand flying all over the sky. However, this also ignited Duke's fighting spirit. He moved slowly. As long as he took one more step, he would be closer to the altar.
...
"It's almost there, it's only a few steps, and it's almost here..."
I don't know how long it took, but he almost moved one step at a time. Duke felt that the altar was within reach. Fortunately, when he approached the altar, the power of the hurricane was not that terrifying. Duke finally passed such a difficult distance. The most terrifying time was that he saw a direction and suddenly inserted into the ground with a sword, but a hurricane next to him suddenly accelerated and blew from him. His body had already begun to be pulled up by the hurricane. If it weren't for the broadsword that had been inserted into the ground a second before and he had firmly grasped the broadsword, he might have been blown away by the hurricane.
"Chi! Kak!" Duke interjected with his sword towards the ground, but this time, he encountered a huge obstacle and made a different sound.
When Duke looked over, he saw that the sword had been inserted into the stone, and it was at the edge of the altar.
"call!"
"Finally arrived!"
Duke quickly walked forward a few steps, then rushed to the stairs on the altar, gasping for breath.
Sitting on the stairs, Duke felt for the first time how solid the stone felt. As soon as he sat down, the little guy jumped out of his arms and ran around the altar. After resting, Duke stood up and walked towards the altar step by step.
The steps are only nine levels, and the height of each level is not high. Duke does not need to deliberately raise his feet when walking, and it feels very moderate.
Stepping on the altar with one foot and looking at the complex patterns on the ground, like some kind of text, Duke's breathing and mood slowly returned to calm.
"This is the most important thing that supports the operation of the entire Stan Secret Realm. It's really hard to get in!" Duke muttered to himself.
"Gurl!"
Seeing Duke standing there in a daze, the little guy called out to Duke and tapped the ground in front of it with his little paws.
Duke walked over, squatted beside the little guy, and looked in the direction the little guy pointed at.
"This is…"
Duke was stunned when he saw it.
On the ground where the little guy pointed, he actually depicted a small monster that was exactly the same as it. He was small in shape, like a mouse, and had a long and sharp and inverted tail. The Guru beast in the painting pointed at the countless monsters crawling on the ground below on this square platform, opening his mouth wide, as if he was talking.
"I added it later?"
After looking at it for a while, Duke found that the pattern seemed to be a little different in color from the surrounding patterns, and the texture depth was also different, as if it was added again at the back. Next to this pattern were some patterns that looked like text, which was obviously different from it.
"Gurl!"
After watching for a long time, the little guy made a dazed sound, and he didn't seem to believe that he would actually see such a pattern in this place.
In his impression, he didn't remember that he had been here, nor did he remember that he had called on other monsters. So who was the little beast in this pattern?
When he thought of this, the little guy became even more confused. He only remembered that he had been living in the area of the Dragon Blood Tree since he was a child, and he was very familiar with everything there, including the surrounding woods. But where did it come from, it had no impression of it at all. But at this time, when he saw this pattern, there seemed to be some traces that could be found.
Seeing the little guy's strangeness, Duke gently picked it up, "I will find news about your life experience with you."
Duke said softly, and he understood the little guy's current mood very well.
