Hunter x Hunter: The Ubiquitous Dragon Life

Chapter 280: Labyrinth Ruins Adventure (38)

"You passed the prize." Cellulu smiled politely at Parisstone through the protective suit and mask.

At this time, Jin had already walked to the wall and watched the relief frescoes above. He was more interested in this ancient civilization and culture than treasures, and he might be able to find the truth buried in history. For example, what happened in Everything here.

The murals seem to depict the daily life of this Bellavista. A large number of silver particles as large as soybean grains have been carefully crafted into ordinary people from all walks of life living in this city. Satisfied smiles, they work in the farmland, fish in the lake, or hunt in the mountains, but most of them are the small merchants and hawkers in the city, even if it is just a static sculpture, it can still make people imagine the city at that time The lively scene of the country is prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment. However, almost all rulers will only let people paint such a peaceful scene in order to show their own skills in governing the country, so Jin will take a look.

But he found another thing. Bella West didn't seem to be as desolate as it is now, a typical plateau desert area. Judging from the murals, the city can almost be said to be a country of water, with large blocks The emerald green emeralds are densely dotted on the walls, representing the lakes dotted around the city. The icy green or green and purple fluorite fills the gaps in the streets or hills, symbolizing the vegetation environment in the city. Although fluorite is not expensive, it can be of high quality. Stones can emit light by themselves at night. At this time, in this dim environment, a large number of fluorites shone with the soft luster of stars, and the frescoes set off became more and more dreamy.

Even if the value of these jewels themselves is not counted, this mural alone is already a priceless antique artwork. Jin sighed and continued to move forward along the wall. Like most ancient civilizations, the people finished painting, and then Going down is naturally the ruling class, and the relief frescoes show this sublime status and power by raising buildings and carving large figures.

The officials carved in white jade are all majestic and mighty, and perform their respective duties in the temple-style buildings carved from various topaz. Carved from white jade and topaz, it is embellished with countless red, blue, emeralds and agate pearls, making it look luxurious and rich.

In a normal secular country, the murals should end when you get here, but Jin found that the wall was only two-thirds gone. He continued to move forward curiously. In the temple carved from obsidian, women made of white crystal faced the In front of him, he knelt down reverently with his hands stretched out on the ground. In front of him, there were no murals. A large number of black, uneven, tangled and undulating columnar objects protruded from the surface in a criss-cross pattern. A dark door with strange lines was looming in it. If Jin hadn't looked carefully, he would have almost ignored it.

Unlike the largest thing on the mural, which is only as long as an adult's arm, this gate shows its grandeur in a symbolic way. Although it is blocked and a little unclear, it is conceivable to speculate based on the painting lines that can be seen so far. out.

"The gate? Could this be the gate mentioned in the message?" Someone spoke next to him, Jin glanced at it, it was Chrollo, and he looked at the mural thoughtfully.

"Maybe, but the priest knelt down against the gate, did he say that the gate is their belief? Or is something behind the door their belief?" Jin guessed while holding his chin through the mask.

"I'm more curious about what's surrounding the gate?"

Chrollo leaned forward slightly and touched the pillars. The texture was rough and uneven, and it looked a bit like wood. However, Chrollo squeezed in with a little force, but the surface was extremely hard and there was no trace of damage. , is much harder than ordinary stones, Chrollos mused.

"Looking at the shape and texture, it is a bit like the branches of a tree, but the texture is not very similar."

He glanced at the fresco, and when he got to the door, the back wall was covered by something similar to a tree trunk. He didn't know if it was like this, or if it appeared later. Covered with murals?

Jin nodded, and asked the exit directly.

"I think so too, now, Chrollo, you say, will there be other murals under this black column?"

"Don't you know if you try it? You can also know if it is a branch of a tree." Chrollo smiled and turned back to ask Wo Jin to help.

However, he saw Wo Jin and Nobunaga squatting on the ground, trying to pry gold bricks vigorously. From time to time, they looked to the side provocatively. When they realized that the situation was not right, they turned back nervously, and yelled for Nobunaga to dig quickly. , he also bowed his head and quickly pulled it up, each time the two picked up a gold brick, they threw it back, and Xiaodi took the pop-eye fish and quickly sucked it in. The three of them cooperated seamlessly. Franklin stood aside with a look of unbearable expression, his face twitching, but after a while, he probably accepted his fate, and he also joined the digging for gold bricks.

Looking at the hot foursome, Krollo couldn't help but twitch at the corners of his mouth. He glanced at the direction that Eye socket Jin was looking at, and found that those mercenaries were also digging for gold bricks. The pass is approved, but I can't help but be greedy. The speed is like a professional demolition team. After a while, a small piece of ground has been pryed clean. There is no reason to spit out what is in front of the spider and give it to others.

However, Chrollo found speechlessly that there was another person who was also rubbing his hands secretly, but the target was not the heavy and hard-to-carry gold bricks, but all kinds of gems. Illumi silently stood in front of the mural, a nail As soon as he pokes one right, he quickly prys off all kinds of precious gems. Jin didn't pay attention at first, but after finding it, he screamed and rushed to stop it.

"Illumi, stop me! That's an important cultural property!"

"Whoever sees it belongs to him, and it's your business if you don't take it." Ilumi retorted with plausibility.

The two of them started to tug at each other, and ended up buying all the gems in Illumi's hands at the market price with gold and setting them back. Illumi smacking his lips in satisfaction, then glanced at those who had not been caught by him. The jewels that have been pried off, the eyes are flashing with light or golden light? Jin was immediately vigilant. Wherever Illumi went, Jin followed wherever he went, guarding against those who did not leave the slightest gap.

Ilumi looked up and down at Jin in dissatisfaction, and was thinking about how to get him away when suddenly, the knight screamed loudly.

"This is impossible! Is the legend true? Or is this the effect of reading?"

Illumi, Jin, and Chrollo didn't know what he was talking about. The three of them looked over. The knight leaned slightly and stood in front of the calm golden pool in the center. His face behind the mask seemed to see some wonderful sight. Full of shock and astonishment, Cellulu, Pariston, and Pyeon also had expressions of surprise and inconceivable in their eyes. Finks squatted by the pool, eager to try, and eager to go. Li Tan, but was stopped by Maggie. Feitan and Xi Suo were looking around at nothing, and when they heard the movement, they also leaned over.

Xi Suo leaned over to take a look, and laughed. "Oh, another world in the water."

another world? Chrollo's heart moved, the three of them looked at each other, walked over, looked down at the pool face, the eyes of the three of them instantly widened, and their surprise could not be restrained.

In the golden lake, like a reflection, stands a city of gold with a simple, open and magnificent structure. The city is shining, as if a halo surrounds it.

Chrollo finally understood the surprise of the knights. He also instantly remembered the legend that Senge had told them when he first entered this place, and he started talking to himself.

"In the legend, the real Bellavista can be reached through the Dream Lake. I always thought it was a lie, but I didn't expect to see the city in the water. Could this pool of water be the Dream Lake? The real Bellavius is in the water. Ster? Are we really just the mirror city of Bellavista right now?"

What is lie and what is truth? Every time he thought it was true, it turned out to be a lie, and when he thought it was a lie, there was an instance that seemed to be true. Chrollo found that everything here was too hard to distinguish between true and false.

"Is it true? Go down and see if you don't know."

Archaeologist Allen said excitedly, but after he finished speaking, he went straight to the cold. No one responded, and no one moved. Everyone is not a fool. Who knows what will happen when they go down. It is obvious that the water in this pool is strange. , maybe it's a trap, or maybe the water in this pool is poisonous, not poisonous, and some ancient bacteria that modern people can't bear will be finished, or they may simply be pulled to some unknown place.

Ellen's face was embarrassed, Pariston smiled and came out to round up the game,

"Alan, don't worry, let's be safe. We have brought some basic equipment and a few small animals. Let's test it first."

"Yeah, be careful, are you an archaeologist on your first day?" Pyeon sounded like a senior, but he didn't know where to find a metal rod, and he stuck it into the pool and stirred it up. .

Ripples appeared on the calm water, and the ripples rippled, but the city of gold in the water did not sway like a normal reflection. Even though the water was splashed by Pyeon's splashes, there was still no slant.

"Well, it's not a reflection." Pyeon said a blatant nonsense, and Jin was speechless. "How could it be a reflection? What can I use to reflect it?"

Pariston had already asked a mercenary to take some water and feed it to a pigeon, and poured the rest into a simple chemical instrument to test the basic ingredients.

The pool water entered the pigeon's body, but it didn't react. It was still cooing in spirit, struggling to fly, and the instrument also got the result after ten minutes. Although it contains some trace elements, it is the most basic water. .

Chrollo glanced at Cellulo and asked, "How is it?"

"It's normal water." Cellulu affirmed, but then added. "But there is an unknown power in the water, it's the power of thought."

The fact that there is mind power in the water is actually the consensus of everyone. Otherwise, there is no way to explain the image, but I just don’t know what mind power is. Since there are no toxins and no unknown ingredients, the only thing left is to go into the water and actually verify it.

Pariston let a tortoise go in, and the tortoise swam freely inside, without triggering any psychic power. Everyone looked at each other suspiciously. Allen couldn't hold back a little, but Chrollo just said calmly. .

"hold on."

Pariston and Pyeon didn't move at all, just as everyone was waiting for the psychic power that might not have been activated, Nobunaga, who was still prying the gold bricks, suddenly snorted.

"Something moved suddenly?"

"Let me see, it's really moving. Is it a tree trunk or a root? It can't be a stone. The stone won't move." Wo Jin said in amazement.

"Wojin, normal tree trunks and roots won't move." Xiaodi corrected carefully.

"Be careful, it seems to be all this stuff down here," Franklin said cautiously.

"Ah! Let me go!" A terrified scream suddenly sounded at this moment, and everyone looked at them vigilantly.

Beneath the golden bricks hollowed out by the mercenaries and the brigade, a large number of dark-brown columnar things that looked like knotted roots or interlaced tree trunks were bare and exposed. They slowly wriggled, like snakes awakening from hibernation. An electric light flint suddenly bounced out, hooked a mercenary's waist, quickly wrapped around several times, and slowly began to shrink the hoop inside. In panic, the mercenary reached out and tried to break it open, but to no avail, he took out a dagger. , I poured my thoughts into the thing desperately, but the entire blade of the dagger turned into scrap metal at the end, leaving no trace on the skin. The mercenary screamed, and the thing was about to strangle him to death. , the bones made a creaking sound.

The other mercenaries just woke up like a dream, and rushed to try to rescue them, but at this time, all the tree-root-like tentacles seemed to have recovered, and they rose one after another, drawing towards the mercenaries and Wo Jin.

"It's good." Wo Jin was not afraid, he laughed loudly, his fist met a tentacle that was attacking in front of him, and the strength collided. Wo Jin was a little surprised to find that the tentacle did not fission as he had imagined. Although the front end was still partially broken by him, a long crack appeared in the entire tentacle, and a large number of debris flew out, revealing a circle of lines like an annual ring.

"It's hard enough, but it's really a tree root." Wo Jin smiled in surprise.

"Hey, keep cutting!" Nobunaga was unhappy. His knife was only a little better than the mercenary before, leaving some white marks, but he still kept cutting. Similarly, Franklin's bullet hit it. It can't penetrate the root of the tree, it can only leave a mark, and the small drops can only keep dodging. She used a buxom, but it is obvious that this thing is alive. Like a rat, he kept smashing the front ends of those tree roots, knocking them down.

And the mercenary who was entangled at the beginning was not so lucky. Before his companions rescued him, he was strangled into two pieces by the roots of the tree that suddenly tightened and tightened, and the upper and lower parts of his body slapped. It fell to the ground with a thud, and twitched a few times before dying. Before the other mercenaries went up to attack the root of the tree in grief and indignation, something even more incredible happened. The thoughts formed a large group of residual thoughts, which were then absorbed by the roots of the tree.

The mercenaries were horrified. "That tree root sucks! Fire, fire!"

The bursting machine guns swept towards the tree roots that seemed to have passed the initial dull period and became more and more flexible. Although they shot down a few, most of them were still strong and strong. It was attacking, and it was obvious that the roots of this ground were not long, but the roots seemed to grow automatically, and the length was continuously stretched indefinitely.

Chrollo frowned. If this goes on, these roots will soon fill the entire hall, and others will naturally know this.

Jin glanced at the source of the ground, and judging from the growth trajectory of these roots, the underside of the golden bricks must also be covered with such roots, but these roots did not drill out of the gold bricks, but only through the The excavated place keeps spreading out.

Kim was about to speak, but Pariston and Chrollo were one step faster than him.

"Hausen, take out the gold bricks and put them back for me, that can inhibit the activity of the roots!"

"Xiao Di, backfill the gold bricks! Wo Jin, the three of you suppress support!"

The mercenaries and the brigade responded quickly. Some of them went to attract tree roots and tentacles to kill, and some of them went to fill in bricks. As the gold bricks were backfilled, fewer and fewer tentacles emerged. When the last tentacle was shot down Falling to the ground, a mercenary quickly pressed down the last golden brick, and then heaved a sigh of relief and slumped on the ground.

Everyone was slightly relieved, but Ilumi looked at the golden bricks, but it was a pity.

"It seems that this money is not easy to get."

However, soon, he became happy again. If no one can take it, then he has really earned a sum of money by corrupting money just now. Illumi has compared himself with scissors in his heart, yeah~

Jin and Chrollo glanced at each other, and when they looked at the back third of the mural again, their eyes became more cautious. There was no doubt that those tree roots were also in a state of sleep. If they wanted to remove these tree roots and explore the things below, Just have to be careful.

After the episode passed, no one was thinking of gold here for the time being. Everyone looked at the pool again, and then Allen exclaimed.

"It's gone, why is the turtle gone? It was there just now, when did it disappear!"

Pariston didn't pay attention just now, so he could only ask. "Did anyone notice how the tortoise disappeared?"

Although not everyone has been paying attention to the mutation of the tree root just now, but unfortunately, no one really saw how the turtle disappeared.

Cellulu was a little hesitant. She didn't see how the tortoise disappeared, but she felt that the space fluctuated for a moment. Was it teleported away? Just as she was about to speak, the space fluctuated slightly for a moment. Cellulu looked at it by feeling. With a thud in the water, the tortoise appeared out of nowhere, but spread out its limbs and slowly sinking. Is this dead?

Others noticed the tortoise's reappearance, and soon after that the tortoise was dead.

"Appeared again? Dead? How did you die?"

Pyeon tried to catch it with a stick, but of course it was unsuccessful. Although the golden pool was not big, it was about the size of a swimming pool, and the turtle appeared in the center of the pool.

Ma Qi shot the thread of thought towards the turtle in the pool. As long as it could be entangled, it could naturally be dragged up. But at this time, the pool, where the turtle had entered the water without any abnormality, suddenly shimmered with golden shimmering light, and Ma Qi only Feeling as if I was being pulled by a huge force, I was suddenly dragged towards the pool.

Unprepared, seeing that Maggie was about to be pulled into the water, Hisoka, who was closest to him, hugged Maggie, but found that the dragging force was very strong, and he was also pulled forward together, Hisoka He hummed in surprise, his thoughts sank, trying to hold his legs.

After Maggie realized that the pulling force came from her own mind line, she also decisively cut off the mind line. With a bang, the pulling force was too strong. Maggie even shook her body before she stood firm. Break free, thank you lightly.

"thanks."

"Hmm, you're welcome~"

Hisoka originally planned to tease him, but after seeing Cellulu, he just laughed and ended the conversation.

This made Ma Qi glance at him in surprise. Is this a change of nature? But after seeing Cellulu along Hisoka's line of sight, she understood it again, but it was really rare, how could this **** be afraid of being misunderstood? Maggie snorted, not sure if she was relieved or a little upset.

However, Cellulu didn't pay attention to Hisoka's rare act of avoiding suspicion. When Maqi was dragged, the spatial fluctuation appeared again. Cellulo tried to parse out something, but unfortunately it was too short, and in the end, she couldn't find a clear picture. Cellulu no longer struggled with the trajectory of the sinking turtle. Looking at the sinking turtle, she directly moved it out with telekinesis.
