As soon as I approached the ancient tower, a system prompt sound came from my mind.

"Ding! The sign-in is successful and your soul has been restored to the advanced level!"

Soul: Advanced [significantly improve resistance to hallucinations and soul attacks. At the same time, improve mental power, willpower, and memory]

"Ding! Trigger new missions, unveil the veil of the Queen of Jingjue, and you can get mysterious rewards after completing the mission!"

"This mission..." Chen Hao murmured to himself.

Let him, a big man, uncover the veil of a female corpse that has been dead for thousands of years. This system seems to be not serious no matter how you look at it...

However, since the system proposed this task, it was still a mysterious reward, so Chen Hao naturally had to complete it. He was looking forward to that mysterious reward.

Everyone stopped under the mysterious black tower and used the flashlight to watch carefully.

The black tower body was a little tilted, and the flashlight could not be refracted. Obviously, the black stones in the Zagrama Mountains were used.

Everyone looked up layer by layer and found that at the top of the tower, there was a round stone ball like a coconut, which was carved like an eyeball, making the whole stone look like an eyeball with wide eyes, and it looked very strange.

The stone tower wall is carved with dense (ghost cave text) and people don’t recognize the words, they just think they look weird.

"This thing... I look like an eyeball, and I still stare into the distance." The fat man muttered.

Sydney explained: "It's just a big eye, which is the totem of the people of Jingjue. Look at their murals and statues, they all carve part of the eyes very much, which symbolizes the worship of the people of Jingjue for the eyes. They believe that the eyes contain some powerful power."

She looked at the ancient tower again and said, "The workmanship of this ancient tower is quite particular, inheriting the style of the ancient Jingjue people, and it is well preserved. There must be many places worth studying in it. This is of great research value for professors and others. I will ask them to come over and have a good look tomorrow morning."

"What is there to study about a broken tower? If I want to see, let's search the entire ancient city tomorrow to see if we can find a bargain." The fat man suggested.

Hu Bayi patted him and said, "Forget it, Xiaopang. Do you have that much energy? The area of ​​this ancient city is too large, and the things are buried in the yellow sand. Do you have to find the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month with the engineer shovel?"

Everyone was busy looking for water sources and walked around the huge ancient city for a while, and found that there was not even a well.

Xueli proposed to go to the bottom of the ancient city to look for it. Most of the ancient city is buried under the yellow sand, so there should be a source of water below.

Everyone was thirsty, and the people on the archaeological side were waiting to drink water, so naturally there was no objection. At Chen Hao's suggestion, they entered a temple for sacrifice and found a secret passage leading to the underground.

The secret passage continued to extend downwards, and everyone walked for about half an hour to the end. This was a huge underground cave with a huge underground river beside it.

The underground river is dozens of meters wide, and the river water is surging down, and the sound of water is roaring. As soon as everyone approaches, they feel that most of the heat in their bodies has been dispersed. This underground cave looks extremely cool.

"This is the Peacock River that seeps into the ground. Unexpectedly, after thousands of years, the Peacock River has not dried up, but Jingjue Ancient City has long been flooded with yellow sand." Xue Li sighed.

Everyone hurried to the river, washed their faces with cold water first, and then took out all the kettles they carried on to fill with water.

Sydney was afraid that the underground river water would be polluted, so she took out a few pills from her backpack and asked everyone to add it to the kettle and filter it. It was said that it could play a clean role and that people would be healthy after drinking it.

After spending more than an hour, all the water in the kettle was filtered, everyone returned to the camp with the water.

After returning to the camp, everyone told the archaeological team about their discovery. Professor Chen was so excited that he wanted to go to explore immediately. However, it was already late at night, and everyone advised him to go again tomorrow.

No words all night.

Early the next morning, after everyone had breakfast, they hurried to the black stone tower and started archaeological research.

Professor Chen said in surprise: "It seems that my speculation is correct. The source of the giant-eyed stone statues unearthed from various places comes from this ancient city of Jingjue, and the material is the black stone in Zaglama Mountain!"

Sardipeng asked curiously: "Professor, what is this stone tower used for? Why is there nothing inside, there is only one statue?"

Professor Chen explained: "This is used by the Ghost Cave tribes to show their status. The corresponding status of the statues on each floor is different, and the higher the level is, the higher the level. Now we see livestock on this floor. I guess there is another layer below, and the evil ghosts in hell should be placed."

When everyone heard what the professor said, they immediately became interested and wanted to go up and see who are the people with higher status on the stone tower.

Everyone quickly walked to the second floor of the stone tower and found that the statue in the middle of the stone tower was a statue of an ordinary person.

Professor Chen explained: "This is the ordinary person in the ancient city, and his status is only higher than that of livestock. I guess further up, he should be the middle and upper class aristocrats."

Everyone came to the third floor of the stone tower. Here, they saw the giant-eyed stone statues that were before, both in shape and workmanship, exactly the same as the ones before.

The giant-pupil stone statue is located on the third floor of the stone tower, and its status is much higher than that of ordinary people.

Everyone couldn't wait to reach the fourth floor of the stone tower again. Surprisingly, the stone statue on this floor turned out to be a human-headed and snake-shaped body, with thick limbs, a statue holding a shield and a sharp sword. The face was like a man, with a hideous face, and his eyes wide open. There was an eye above his head, looking neither human nor ghost.

Professor Chen said in amazement: "This seems to be the guardian saint of Jingjue Kingdom, with an eye on his head. It seems that the worship of eyes by the people of the ancient Jingjue Kingdom has reached an almost incomprehensible level. The status of the Queen of Jingjue has indeed been deified and is still above the guardian saint. Let's go up and see if the stone statue on the upper layer is the Queen of Jingjue!"

Everyone excitedly came to the fifth floor of the stone tower. To everyone's expectations, there was nothing in this floor, and there was not even a base for the stone statues.

The fat man thought it was a thief who carried the stone statue away. Professor Chen told everyone that this layer was originally nothingness and represented an imaginary space.

Without stopping too much, everyone came to the top of the stone tower. Here, they indeed saw a female statue covered with a veil.
Chapter completed!
