Chapter 217 The Book of Oracles
The mechanical spider docked on the edge of the black mud and squatted slowly.
Xiao Yu jumped off the back of the mechanical spider.
"Didi, Didi." The robot figure followed Xiao Yu's back and made a strange sound.
The mechanical spider stood up and stood quietly aside.
Xiao Yu looked at the city curiously, not knowing what kind of tasks would be waiting for him in this lifeless city.
After walking a distance, a crisp system prompt sounded.
System: You discovered the lost city.
Xiao Yu walked into the lost city. There was no one coming or going on the street, which was different from other places in the dark swamp. The sky here was very clear. Widths of sunlight cast from the sky, forming mottled and blurred light and shadow in the city. Looking at the scenery and buildings here, Xiao Yu felt like he had arrived at the ancient European city in the 17th century.
On the flower bed in the middle of the street ahead, the water splashes on the fountain were still gushing, and an unknown wild flower was blooming quietly, blooming with all its brilliance, but no one cared about it.
There are many shops on both sides of the street. The doors of these shops are open, but the buildings are empty, and there is nothing left in the shop.
"Lost City." Xiao Yu savored the name carefully. This city was indeed a forgotten city.
Xiao Yu walked around the city, looking for useful clues.
"Didi, Didi." The robot made a strange sound, as if guided by something, and walked towards the secluded alley next to it.
Xiao Yu suddenly forgot that the robot doll is the owner here and is the key to the mission, so he will naturally provide clues to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu followed the robot doll to the depths of the alley.
"Didi, one hundred yards ahead. The Red Priest, the Nader man half-dead, the twenty-level elite..." The robot puppet mechanically reported some messages. After hearing this sound, Xiao Yu frowned slightly. What does this Nader man half-dead mean?
"It should be no problem to deal with a level 20 elite." Xiao Yu thought, preparing to go and clean up the Red-clothed Priest.
"Didi. Didi. "The robot doll suddenly emitted some rapid alarm, "One hundred yards behind, the red priest, twenty in number, approaching, danger warning..."
Xiao Yu looked back and found some red figures at the corner in the distance. Xiao Yu quickly started stealth. The robot puppet also entered the stealth state.
Xiao Yu walked towards the edge of the alley with a mechanical doll and pressed tightly against the wall. The alley has only two exits in front and back, only more than five yards wide, and there are towering courtyard walls next to it. Xiao Yu had no way to retreat. He could only hold his breath, hoping not to be discovered by these red-clad priests.
Twenty red priests lined up in neat rows and walked towards this side.
Xiao Yu looked at the priests in red carefully. These priests in red were short and similar to those in dwarfs. They were wearing red cloaks, covering their faces, and holding a red scepter about two yards long in their hands.
These twenty red-clothed priests slowly approached Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu held his breath and looked at the faces of these red-clothed priests. Seeing the faces of these red-clothed priests, Xiao Yu almost suffocated.
These ugly red-clothed priests have half of their faces and half of their skeletons, with no pupils in their eyes. They are pale and spiritless.
Seeing these red-clothed priests slowly approaching here, Xiao Yu's heartbeat couldn't help but be a little quicker.
A priest in red suddenly looked up and looked at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu quickly calmed himself down. The priest in red noticed nothing and continued to move forward. The team of 20 priests in red gradually walked away and finally disappeared at the end of the alley.
"What are these red-clothed priests!" Xiao Yu vaguely understood the literal meaning of the semi-undead man.
Xiao Yu followed the robot doll for a while.
"Didi, discover the book of oracle. One hundred yards away..." the robot puppet said.
Xiao Yu understood. This hundred digits is the detection distance of the robot puppet. Anything or creature that enters within a hundred digits can be detected by the robot puppet.
"The Book of Oracle?" Xiao Yu frowned slightly. What exactly is this book of Oracle?
"Take me to find the Book of Oracle." Xiao Yu said. This was the first time he issued an order to the robot doll. I wonder if the robot doll would comply. Xiao Yu realized that the Book of Oracle must be related to the mission.
"Target lock, Book of Oracle." The robot said when he heard Xiao Yu's order, and walked forward.
Xiao Yu followed the robot doll forward.
"The Red Priest found ahead..."
"Can you get around?" Xiao Yu asked. Xiao Yu was not afraid of an elite monster of level 20, but if he was discovered by the patrol team of Red Priests on the ground while dealing with Red Priests, it would be dangerous.
"Around the way." The robotic doll took Xiao Yu forward for a distance, then turned into an alley, turned around in the alley, and walked to the door of a garden courtyard.
Xiao Yu observed and found that this was a somewhat dilapidated house, which was a bit remote. Looking inside the wall, the architectural style in the courtyard was quite unique, but not luxurious. It was probably an ordinary family.
"The Book of Oracle, five yards away." said the robot, walking back and forth in front of the door of the house, but never opened the door.
"Are there any monsters nearby?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Discovering, there are 0 monsters..." said the robot.
Since there were no monsters, Xiao Yu was no longer worried. He walked to the steps of the house and pushed the door of the house. The door creaked open, and a lot of dust fell, causing Xiao Yu to cough.
Fan the dust off, Xiao Yu walked into the house. The house was a garden of flowers, with all kinds of wild flowers blooming wildly, and the fragrance was everywhere.
Walking forward along the gravel road covered with weeds, a white stone pillar about one yard high stood in the center of the garden in front, and an old book was supported on the top of the stone pillar.
"The Book of Discovery of Oracle..." said the robot.
This book should be the oracle book mentioned by the robot doll. Xiao Yu walked to the stone pillar and glanced at the cover of the book. The cover of the book contained four ancient words. Xiao Yu could vaguely recognize that these are the four words "The oracle book".
This is obviously just an ordinary book. What is the name of the Oracle Book? It has such a loud name. Xiao Yu opened the Oracle Book and started reading it.
"Walshid, the Creator God, created this world...Walshid said that this world is under your control... God is the guardian of the world order... Whoever violates the order of God's establishment must accept God's sanctions... The divine power cannot be violated..."
The front of the book is about divine power, saying that divine power cannot be violated.
"No wonder this book is called the Book of Oracles." Xiao Yu was a little overwhelmed when he saw this series of nonsense. In order to find clues, Xiao Yu had no choice but to read it patiently.
"In 2930, the Nadians violated the authority of the gods. In order to punish the Nadians, the gods were trapped in the center of the earth. The kind gods punished the Nadians a little and forgive the Nadians, but the Nadians tried to resist. The city of Resa wanted to resist the gods with the power of a city, but eventually lost to the gods and was buried by a volcano. The Nadians' actions finally angered the gods. The gods joined forces to bring down the divine punishment and destroyed the twenty-seven cities of the Nadians..."
Seeing this, Xiao Yu understood that these Nadians were just victims of the gods in order to protect the divine power and demonstrate the divine power. Those Nadians were also fierce enough to dare to fight against the gods.
"Also support the city. It was built in 2922..." Xiao Yu turned another page. This page introduced the history of the lost city. Xiao Yu looked around boredly and turned to the last page. On the last page of the Oracle Book, there were some intermittent words.
"The people of Nader are here, these escaped people who are chased by God, they are cruel and terrible... They rushed into the city. They killed our people, and we fought bravely... The city is full of blood... Wu Sen is dead... Els is dead... Great God, have you given up on us..."
These handwritings are very sloppy, which shows that the person who wrote these words was very anxious at the beginning. From his tone, he could see that he was desperate and helpless.
Looking at these words, many pictures appeared in Xiao Yu's mind, roughly understanding the process of this incident, but there was no discussion here about how this city disappeared from the world's vision. What happened later. The subsequent content is still waiting for Xiao Yu to explore.
"Didi, I found the priest in red. The number is 1, approaching." The robot doll suddenly said.
There was another priest in red, and Xiao Yu entered a stealth state. It would be better to wait for the priest in red to leave, Xiao Yu thought to himself.
"No, the door is not closed." Xiao Yu then realized that he did not close the door when he came in. Now he was too late to close the door and Xiao Yu could only stay where he was.
I guess I found that the gate of this courtyard was not closed. A red figure walked towards the yard, looked at it, and walked towards where Xiao Yu was.
"Damn it." Xiao Yu tightened the dagger in his hand, ready to kill the priest in red at any time, and prayed secretly, "I hope it won't attract more priests in red."
The priest in red gradually approached, looked around, found the books on the pillar, and reached out to get them.
Unexpectedly, the book of oracle suddenly shone brightly. In the white light, the body of the priest in red was constantly dissolved, making a shrill scream. A dazzling white light column fell on the priest in red. The priest in red instantly evaporated into white mist and disappeared.
Xiao Yu covered his eyes with his hands to block the dazzling white light. After a moment, the white light stopped, and the Book of Oracle returned to its original ordinary appearance, leaving only some ashes on the ground, proving that a priest in red had appeared.
Xiao Yu looked at the book of oracle in horror, but he didn't expect that the book of oracle was so powerful.
Snap it instantly!
