Release that Witch

273. Chapter 273 God Punishment Stone

    Roland quickly estimated the size of the underground cavern, with a football field at the bottom and a steep mountain wall. The ramp that connects to it is just in the center of the mountain wall. There is a narrow stone stairs next to the hole, which extends downward.

    “I guess this ladder is not built out by you,” he crouched down and put the torch close to the ground. Under the illumination of the fire, the traces of the axe carving on the stone steps are very obvious, and there are still a lot of stone chips and dust in the marks.

    “Of course not, Your Highness, when we found it, the stone steps were already there,” Carter shrugged. “I guess this stuff has been around for decades.”

    “Or hundreds of years,” Anna said suddenly.

    “I think so too,” Lightning nodded. “Border Town has been established for only seventy years, and stone stairs are unlikely to be related to locals or kingdoms.”

    “Is there anyone in the Western Region hundreds of years ago?”Carter questioned, “Greycastle is not yet established.”

    Roland patted Knight’s shoulder. “Four hundred and fifty years ago, there were a group of people who were forgotten by history.”Then he raised the torch. “Let’s go, let’s go down and see.”

    The First Army soldiers have surrounded the bottom of the cave in twos and threes. He walked straight to the God Punishment Stone with Knight and Witch. Only when standing at the foot of the stone pillar can he feel the depth of God Stone. Open arms, not one tenth of it, must look up to see the top of it, the highest purple God Punishment Stone is close to thirty meters, almost equivalent to a house of eight or nine stories.

    In theory, the stone that can illuminate itself is not radioactive or fluorescent, but the light of God Punishment Stone is obviously irrelevant to the two – the former’s luminescence comes from the phenomenon of air ionization caused by the decay of the element itself, and the half-life is more Short, the greater the brightness. According to the brightness of the light, the soldiers who entered first will not be able to survive the ionizing radiation for a few minutes. The latter needs to be illuminated before it can shine. There is no light source in the depth of the underground, and it is obviously unable to support it to continuously emit cold light.

    Roland also noticed that God Stone is a prismatic shape that is common in crystals, but the surface has no crystallized lines, but is as smooth as flat glass.

    “A thumb-sized God Punishment Stone in the church can sell several gold royals, like this one…It is almost impossible to empty the treasury of Four Great Kingdoms. ”Carter can’t help but feel.

    “Sell it to noble damaging witch?”Nightingale gave him a look.

    “Oh, I didn’t say that,” Chief Knight unconsciously removed his gaze.

    “I was the first to see this color of the God Punishment Stone, shouldn’t it be white and transparent,” Lightning curiously looked at the stone pillar. “If you take a piece back, don’t you have a candle at night?”

    “I would rather have a dozen candles in a stuffy room, and I don’t want to use it to illuminate,” Nightingale both hands holding her chest. “For witch, it’s a cage, a shackle, a Church’s accomplice! It would be nice if there were no such damn stones in the world. ”

    “Hey, Nightingale, you won’t read anymore at night…”The little girl licked her lips and picked up the stone and looked at Roland. “Can I take a piece back as a trophy for adventure?”

    Roland nodded. “If you don’t dislike this stuff.”

    She picked up the stone in her hand and banged hard on the corner of the prism. She only heard a crack of “叮”, the stone shattered, and there was no scar on the prism.

    Knight couldn’t help but scream, “What happened…Are God Punishment Stone not fragile and fragile? ”

    “Perhaps this difference is different,” Lightning smacked the stone in his hand, and took out the dagger from his pocket, and tossed it around the prism. But even if it was used for scraping and cutting, it would be in vain.

    Roland felt a bit wrong, he gestured to Nightingale, “Let’s try.”

    The latter nodded, pulled out the revolver and pulled the trigger directly to the other prism. The huge roar echoed at the bottom of the hole, and the place where the God Punishment Stone was hit was a few sparking stars. After the smoke was exhausted, the pedestrian walked over and saw that the bullet left only a shallow mark on the surface of God Stone.

    This means that light has exceeded the homogeneous steel plate in terms of strength.

    “The guns are useless?”Carter frowned. “How did Church cut it and polish it?”

    No one can answer this question, and it doesn’t match the impressions that everyone has on weekdays.

    At least Roland used bricks to break the God Punishment Lock—such as the one that was tied to Anna’s neck. Just two or three times, the crystal clear stone turned into a white powder.

    Anna, who has been silent, suddenly said, “His Royal Highness, do you remember the “Treasure Map” drawn by Morning Light Fern Schilt? ”

    “Treasure Map ?”Roland stunned. He vaguely remembers that a triangle on the drawing occupies more than half of the area, with three vertices pointing to the ends of the Taqila Holy City, Hidden Forest stone tower, and Northern Slope Mountain…Wait, Northern Slope Mountain feet? Suddenly a lightning in his head, “Is it…”

    “I don’t think it’s pointing to the Northern Slope Mine, but here–” Anna slowly said, “There is a lot of underground caves in the God Punishment Stone.”

……

    After a careful search, the cave has not found any other valuable discoveries other than the indestructible God Stone.

    Not to mention ancient books or wills, even the tools that cut the stone stairs are not left, which is incredible. According to the current state of the art, it is absolutely a huge and arduous project to create a ladder on a steep stone wall. Things like accidental fall, lost tools, etc. should be commonplace. But in addition to the stone or the stone, it seems that they thoroughly cleaned the cave before the evacuation.

    When Roland returned to the office, he called Scroll and reappeared the drawings of dawning Knight on “Meta-Book.”

    Similar to the pattern in memory, the southernmost point does fall on the foot of the Northern Slope Mountain.

    If Anna guessed it right, this Is it possible is the map left by Church looking for the new God Punishment Stone vein? But why did they spend a lot of effort to cut out the stone stairs that went straight to the bottom of the hole, but they abandoned everything? If Church set up a border church as early as 450 years ago, I am afraid that today’s Border Town will be completely different – according to the price and use of the God Punishment Stone, this mine is not like Is a natural resource that can be discarded at will.

    Now Taqila Holy City is a forbidden zone that can’t be reached. Maybe these answers can only be answered after going to the stone tower…Or never know.
