Chapter 114: Underground creatures are coming! (Part 1)

A golden species-level battle is taking place deep in the Karazan Mountains, and Athens, which is affected at this moment, is in a mess.

Although the earthquake lasted only less than three minutes, the violent vibration still caused the collapse of more than a dozen buildings in Athens, and the marble sculptures erected in the city became crooked by the earthquake, and some of them had even broken into two halves. However, for some reason, the temple of leadership, which the goddess of wisdom Athena, and other temples in Athens, were not affected by earthquakes, or the earthquake could not affect the temple at all. Even the statues erected in the central square were not damaged at all.

now.

Murphy was standing in the hall of the Governor's House with confusion, walking back and forth anxiously. Although the sudden earthquake did not bring any irreparable losses because the houses in this era were not high, there were indeed many casualties. The earthquake came too quickly, and many people didn't have time to run out. Many people were buried alive in the ruins during the earthquake. Fortunately, there were many civil and architectural structures in Athens, except for some people who were not lucky, they were hit by the key points. Most of the others were injured, and they only had to be treated by the priests of the temple.

The losses caused by the earthquake are secondly, and the negative impact it has created is Murphy’s real headache.

This is a primitive era.

It is also an era of ignorance.

In such an era, earthquakes and other natural disasters can easily cause some messy troubles. If your opponents grasp this handle, it will undoubtedly be a considerable trouble. Although the foundation of Athens cannot be shaken, it will largely affect Murphy's reputation. The southern plains are not a zone with frequent earthquakes, and an earthquake may occur within hundreds of years. Therefore, in such a relatively primitive and ignorant era, if someone is interested in taking advantage of this earthquake and adding some rumors to fuel the fire, it is likely to be rumored as "Heavenly Punishment".

I believe that many people in the noble parliament are now happy to discredit Athens. After all, the prestige of Athens and Murphy, which is now booming, has begun to go along with them.

This is not what they want to see.

About a quarter of an hour later.

"Governor." The chief priest of the war walked into the hall with a calm face and spoke to Murphy: "This earthquake came too suddenly, obviously not the result of natural evolution. It is probably a man-made matter, so my Lord was not aware of it at all."

"Man-made?" Murphy was stunned when he heard this, and a very strange thought came to his mind.

Can earthquakes be artificially caused?

The Chief Priest of the God of War nodded and then said, "There are residual energy fluctuations underground, very strong! It is likely caused by some powerful creatures."

"It's a pity that my Lord's territory is war and killing. If it were a high priest, he might be able to predict something."

High Priest?

Murphy couldn't help frowning when he heard this, because he inherited some of the divine nature of the goddess of wisdom Athena. Until now, the high priest is still asleep and has no intention of waking up. He doesn't know when the high priest will wake up, but the high priest once said that the more powerful the gods are, the greater the constraints they are. I guess Athena, the goddess of wisdom, who is still of a lower level of divine power, shouldn't sleep for too long?

The high priest fell into a deep sleep, and Murphy was missing an important helper around him when dealing with many things.

Murphy looked at the Chief Priest of the God of War in front of him, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Can you sense the center point where the energy radiates outward?"

"You can try it."

The Chief God of War Priest slowly closed his eyes, and then the blood-red light that he saw last appeared again in Murphy's retina, and a powerful force with a ray of divine aura also began to radiate outward with the Chief God of War Priest as the center. About half a minute later, the Chief God of War Priest slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Murphy in front of him, with a slight confusion in his eyes, and said, "The power fluctuation came from the inside of the Karazan Mountains, very close to the white dragon's nest!"

White Dragon?

Murphy couldn't help frowning again when he heard this. Could it be that the earthquake was caused by the white dragon?

If this is true, then there will be a lot of trouble.

As if he had thought of something, Murphy looked at the chief priest of the God of War in front of him and asked, "If you face that white dragon, how likely do you have to win?"

Murphy understands a little now.

People like the Chief Priest of the War God are a bit like the gods in the previous life DND game. Although they are still mortal bodies, they can use a little power of gods. If converted into the standard of this world, it is the combat power of the golden species level. Although they do not meet the standards of the dragon, they are definitely beyond mortals.

"Seven Fen." The Chief Priest of the God of War was shocked when he heard this, and then a golden light flashed through his pupils, and he said in a deep voice.

Is there a seven-point chance of winning?

Murphy slowly closed his eyes when he heard this.

really!

After the power of the God of War Kratos was stabilized in medium divine power, as his spokesperson in the mortal world, the power of the God of War Priests also increased. If Murphy remembered correctly, the last time the God of War Priests did not have much confidence in defeating the White Dragon.

As if he had made up some determination, Murphy opened his eyes and said solemnly: "Call the Spartan Conquerors, let's go to the site of the incident!"

If this earthquake was really done by man.

Then if you don’t go and see Murphy, I’m afraid you won’t even sleep well, because this distance is too close to Athens!

"Yes!" The chief priest of the God of War took the order and left.

……………………

Five minutes later, the Spartan Conqueror and the Chief Priest of the God of War gathered at the gate of the Governor's Mansion for some reason. This time, Helen, the chief Priest of Aphrodite, the God of Love and Beauty, insisted on going with Murphy.

This time Murphy was not sure in his heart, and one more person would be more powerful, so he agreed to accompany her.

The team of 27 people is a total of 27 people, which can almost be said to have the highest combat power in Athens at this stage! With the fully equipped Spartan conqueror, and the two chief priests of the Olympian gods, this lineup can be tried even if it is really a dragon-slaying! However, for some reason, while I was heading to the Karazan Mountains to check the details, Murphy felt a little uneasy in his heart.

A straight line distance of eighty kilometers.

But in fact, Murphy and his party did not enter the depths of the Karazan Mountains until the next morning.

The surrounding plants are lush and trees, and the sky is more than ten meters high can be seen everywhere. The dense branches and torso block the sun, leaving only mottled silhouettes on the ground. The areas around the Karazan Mountains are full of such primeval forests, with lush weeds growing as high as knees. In addition, the bushes that block the road need to be cleared along the way, Murphy and his party advanced very slowly.

The horses were left outside, and Murphy and his party simply brought some dry food.

It was around noon, and the group walked out of the dense forest. As they walked out of the forest, the lush plants and trees along the road began to decrease. There were already many bare rocks around them, and some rocks even had charred traces of burning flames. A high mountain peak in the distance began to appear in front of everyone. This was already within the territory of the white dragon. Since it moved to the Karazan Mountains, the smart species and animals that were moving nearby have basically disappeared. Some of the zombie tribes entrenched here before almost ran away without a trace!

"Governor! What do you think is this?" The Chief Priest of the God of War, who was walking in front, leaned over and picked up something from the ground, then quickly came to Murphy and spoke.

The twenty-four Spartan conquers were guarding the left rear of Murphy. They looked around with vigilance, holding their hands on the hilt of the knife since they entered here, ready for battle at any time. The chief priest of Love and Beauty Helen has been passing side by side with Murphy. I don’t know if she felt something, and she looked a little uneasy all the way like Murphy.

"What's this?"

Murphy reached out and took the thing handed over by the Chief Priest of the War God. It was a piece of black scale, about the size of a thumbnail, with a slight metallic luster, very hard texture, and a trace of dark red blood hanging on the corners.

Murphy looked at the black scales in his hand, and the anxiety in his heart became stronger.

If such a scale appears elsewhere, it would be nothing. But it would be too weird to appear on the territory of a white dragon! And looking at the trace of blood left on it, it seems that it would not be too long. The white dragon obviously would not have such black scales, so there is no doubt that this was left from another creature!

As the group gradually deepened, some strange footprints began to appear on the ground, which were relatively large. Judging from the traces, it seemed that some creature with three claws were left behind. The number of these creatures was quite large, and the direction the footprints were facing was the east of the forest where Murphy came.

The further he went, the more shocked expression on Murphy's face became difficult to hide.

In fact, even the face of the Chief Priest of the God of War was now an incredible expression. He tried several times to stop Murphy from continuing to go deeper, but in the end he was defeated by Murphy's curiosity. Because at this moment, in addition to that uneasiness, Murphy's heart also felt something calling him in a hazy way. The intuition deep in his heart told him that he should continue to walk.

As the group gradually deepened, huge pits began to appear on the ground. All of these pits were smashed by boulders with diameters of more than three meters in weight in tons.

Huge pits one by one!

It is hard to imagine what kind of creature can have such terrible power! It can actually use these huge rocks weighing more than ten tons to smash so many pits on the ground!

Soon, the group saw something.

Because they found that the mountain in front seemed to move, and that mountain looked so much like a contemplative giant.
