Chapter 1054
1054 Cornerstone platform’s special recruitment order (1)
The battle was over, and there were wolves everywhere.
There was no blood flowing out of the Guardian’s broken body. Instead, it was pitch black, like a wax figure that had been cut into pieces.
Although the Guardians had all been cleared, in order to prevent any enemies from lurking nearby, the necessary search and cleaning work still had to continue.
Tang Zhen did not wait for the search to end. Instead, he directly walked into the large hall.
With his strength, there were probably not many people in this world who could pose a threat to him, so there was no need to be so cautious.
Fatty, on the other hand, immediately caught up with him. Because he had been promoted to a King level cultivator, his face was full of joy.
However, he immediately revealed a strange expression when he sensed the law aura faintly emitted from Tang Zhen’s body. He shook his head rather helplessly.
After advancing to the king rank, he could clearly feel how big the gap between him and Tang Zhen was.
The pride and complacency in his heart instantly vanished.
Tang Zhen smiled when he saw this. He did not say anything in order to avoid affecting Fatty’s confidence.
In just a few breaths, Tang Zhen had already stepped into the hall and saw the majestic god statues standing in the huge Hall.
Each statue was more than 20 meters tall and was carved out of a strange stone. The dark color gave people a faint sense of mystery.
The passage of time had left mottled marks on these god statues, but it was difficult to hide the awe-inspiring aura they exuded.
Of course, this kind of aura had no effect on Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen was silent for a moment as he looked at the statues of gods with different shapes. They looked like Giants looking down on all living beings. He then began to observe them one by one.
His figure passed by these statues, carefully recording the appearance of each statue, as well as the words on the bronze base at the feet of the statue, for comparison and analysis when he returned.
Not long after, Tang Zhen had already reached the end of the hall. After which, he saw a huge mural.
The contents of the mural were naturally related to the native gods, but if one looked carefully, they would find that it was actually a painting similar to a prophecy.
The pieced-together scenes were obviously in a continuous transition, recording some major events related to the gods in this world.
In the beginning, it was basically the origin of the various gods, but it only occupied one-tenth of the picture.
What followed were Wars, disasters, and even the terrifying flood that had completely cleansed the world.
After looking at it for a while, his eyes suddenly revealed a trace of bewilderment.
It turned out that Tang Zhen had unexpectedly seen some figures on this mural. Their appearance was extremely similar to Lou Cheng’s cultivators!
The cultivators in the murals were besieging the indigenous gods in groups of three to five. During the whole process, the world changed color, blood flowed like rivers, and the ground was covered with incomplete corpses.
After being besieged, the indigenous gods were in a very difficult situation. Some of them had even fallen to the ground and died!
Tang Zhen looked at the contents of the mural. A moment later, he shook his head and revealed a faint surprised expression.
According to the history of the Hall of Gods, this mural must have had a long history. But who made this mural, to be able to predict what would happen countless years later?
If this was not a coincidence, then the indigenous gods probably knew about Lou Cheng’s invasion long ago. That was why they had such a strong reaction after the Holy Dragon City descended.
This kind of magical prediction ability was indeed a little shocking.
However, Tang Zhen also knew that when one’s strength reached a certain level, a cultivator would possess the strength to destroy the heavens and earth. Therefore, it wasn’t anything strange to extract some scenes from the long river of time in advance and draw them to warn future generations!
Fortunately, this mural had a long history and was left on the lost continent for some special reason. As such, it did not attract the attention of the native gods and their believers.
Otherwise, the Holy Dragon City would have to face enemies on high alert, and they would probably suffer a great loss!
This also gave Tang Zhen a reminder. When he started the next invasion mission, he must pay attention to whether there were similar prophecies left behind in the indigenous world. Then, he would follow the hints of the prophecy and eliminate the key figures who might bring changes to the Holy Dragon city’s invasion!
Sometimes, an unremarkable person could rise up with the wind because of the influence of fate, and then completely change the situation of the world!
Tang Zhen naturally did not wish to see such a situation.
Time passed by slowly. After staying in the Hall of Gods for a few hours, the group took the warship and returned to Holy Dragon City.
When the warship arrived at Holy Dragon City, Tang Zhen directly headed to the cornerstone platform, preparing to hand over the world’s origin he had obtained this time to the cornerstone platform.
This kind of thing was of no use to Tang Zhen, and it was very hot in his hands. It was better to hand it over as soon as possible.
Moreover, Tang Zhen also wanted to know how many Battle Points this world’s origin could be exchanged for and what stage the mission could reach.
In that case, he could make an accurate judgment on how many Aboriginal deities were needed to complete the mission!
At this moment, other than the Holy Dragon City cultivators on guard, there were no residents exchanging items on the foundation stone platform, making the entire Hall seem very empty.
Tang Zhen took out the world’s origin and chose to hand in the mission item. A light flashed and his hand was empty.
The mission progress bar that hung high above the foundation stone platform suddenly moved forward by a quarter and then slowly stopped.
The corner of Tang Zhen’s mouth revealed a trace of a joyous smile when he saw this.
Because the Holy Dragon City had not yet been upgraded to a national level, this invasion could only be considered a novice promotion mission. The number of world origins required would naturally not be the same as a national level city.
Originally, Tang Zhen was a little worried that he would need to kill eight to ten Aboriginal deities to complete the mission. Now, he felt much more relaxed.
The Holy Dragon City only needed to kill four indigenous gods to gather the required amount of the world’s origin for the mission, which was a surprise.
In this way, whether it was the pressure of the task or the cost of it, it would be greatly reduced. If they were lucky, they could kill two more indigenous gods, then the Holy Dragon City would make a big profit.
It should be known that the selling price of the world’s origin was extremely high. It was estimated that only about two portions would be needed to make up for the consumption of this invasion operation. The other materials could be regarded as additional income.
The number of soul stones collected by Holy Dragon City this time was quite a lot!
As for the other resources, there were no exact numbers for the time being. However, the Holy Dragon city’s warehouses were gradually being filled up, indicating that the harvest this time was quite bountiful.
Moreover, these were just the rewards outside of the mission. After the Holy Dragon City completed the mission and returned to the tower world, there would be a mission reward waiting for Tang Zhen.
At that time, Holy Dragon City would truly begin to soar!
When he thought of this, Tang Zhen’s mood became extremely good. Just as he was about to return to his study room and carefully study the hidden entrance of the small world of the native gods, a message suddenly popped up on the cornerstone platform.
After seeing the content of the message, Tang Zhen’s expression changed and he suddenly stopped.
[ special platform call! ]
[ the teleportation energy hub located in the foreign world of this battle zone has been attacked. Guards have been killed by the enemy. The energy core has been seized by the enemy. ]
[ it has been confirmed that the enemy will pass through a foreign world as a transit point to transport the energy hub core back to the enemy’s headquarters. As the teleportation energy core was extremely important, all teleportations in the rear area would not be able to proceed normally without it. Therefore, it had to be seized back.
Therefore, the platform had issued a recruitment order. All the buildings above level nine in the war zone, regardless of whether they had a mission or not, had to pick a King-level cultivator. At the same time, they had to be teleported to the world where the mission was within an hour.
After arriving at the mission location, please wait for the next order.
[ the mission reward will be calculated according to the contribution points after the energy core is retrieved! ]
Tang Zhen’s eyes flickered as he looked at the words on the foundation stone platform. He did not hesitate and immediately made arrangements for the matters after he left.
Although he was not the only King level cultivator in the Holy Dragon City, he had to go on this mission.
This was because Tang Zhen had a premonition that he might be able to obtain some secret information about the cornerstone platform through this mission!
