Chapter 1181 Twelve Lords

"I don't see Qian Sen and the others here..."

Li Chengxi glanced around and felt uncomfortable that he didn't see Qian Sen or even Qian Sen's bones, which meant that he had to continue walking inside.

"Brother Li, look ahead, ahead!"

Li Chengxi was very calm, but about 20 meters in front of him, a giant bull made of brass and flames, about seven or eight meters tall, was charging at Li Chengxi.

Every step it took caused the ground to tremble terribly, and the flying flames wrapped around its body were even more terrifying, and the scorching temperature could be felt from a long distance.

However, Li Chengxi only raised his hand to attach importance to this kind of thing.

A layer of fine golden light gathered into a thick shield in front of him, and the bull hit it with a deafening metallic sound.

Not only did it not knock Li Chengxi back half a step, but the brass bull itself was almost knocked down by the shock.

Li Chengxi then pressed with his other hand and made a gesture of closing his hands.

The dizzy bull was immediately squeezed by the invisible force in the air. Without a sound, his body was squeezed into a ball of scrap copper and iron.

The flames that wrapped it also dispersed with a whoosh, leaving only a pile of twisted and deformed parts falling to the ground.

"Let's go, continue."

In any case, along the way, Li Chengxi was basically the one who dealt with it in the front, and at most Tang Xiaoqin would help, and the others were basically watching the show, and everyone was numb.

But Li Chengxi was already feeling bored, it was endless, right?

"How long will it take to get to the end?"

"It should be soon."

Gan Xiaoyan followed and said:

"This place should be built according to the arrangement of the twelve main gods of Olympus, but the order may be messed up."

"Uh... In other words, there are a total of twelve?"

"Well, we just discussed it. Except for the original Minotaur, each room after that actually corresponds to a god in mythology."

After the Minotaur is the undead army, corresponding to Pluto in Roman mythology, that is, Hades in Greek mythology.

Medusa was cursed by Athena and turned into a Gorgon, so she represents Minerva in Roman mythology.

The giant squid that suddenly jumped out of the big pool is easy to understand, corresponding to the sea god Poseidon, that is, Neptune in Roman mythology.

After that, the flying dagger is Mercury (Hermes).

The giant high-brightness and high-heat light bulb that was broken by Li Chengxi is Phoebus (Apollo).

The white stag represents Diana (Artemis).

The marble soldiers more than ten meters high represent the god of war Mars (Ares).

The thunderclouds belong to the sky god Jupiter (Zeus).

The bull made of flames and brass is obviously Vulcan (Hephaestus), the god of fire and forging.

This is certainly not an unfounded association. In addition to the fact that each monster can indeed correspond, the star map seen in the room with the flying dagger can also prove this point.

"So there are three more?"

Since they are the twelve main gods of Olympus, they have already seen nine difficulties and monsters in the opposite position, so naturally there are three left.

But Gan Xiaoyan shook her head:

"There should be one left."

"Why?"

"The star map I saw before has stars marked in black. If the stars on the star map represent the Greek gods, the black stars should naturally represent the parts that do not exist or have not been completed. In fact, we have not encountered monsters and difficulties related to the gods represented by black stars."

The order and members of the twelve main gods of Olympus are not fixed. There are some differences in different mythological stories and written records.

For example, Hades is sometimes considered one of the twelve main gods, and sometimes not, which is very confusing.

"Just tell me the result directly."

I don't know if others are confused, but Li Chengxi was confused when listening to Gan Xiaoyan's explanation.

"The star map does mark out the stars representing the Greek gods. Excluding the black stars, the last room is likely to represent Juno, that is, Hera, the queen of heaven in Greek mythology."

Li Chengxi's understanding of Hera is that she is Zeus' wife and seems to be very jealous.

Besides that, there is nothing else.

But Gan Xiaoyan's expression seemed to become a little serious.

"Don't be nervous, I will take care of it."

"No, I'm not nervous."

Gan Xiaoyan said:

"Brother Li, I dreamed that Director Qian was trapped by a big snake. Thinking about it carefully, it just happens to match the current situation."

"Why?"

"The symbol of Hera is the big snake."

Having said that, Gan Xiaoyan's vision is really good. No wonder she was absorbed into the ninth department to work since high school.

Gan Xiaoyan originally wanted to remind Li Chengxi not to be careless, it might not be easy to deal with.

But Li Chengxi didn't take it to heart as usual. After all, he met people in seconds all the way.

As they talked, everyone came to a door.

This is the only place where you can see a door in the entire ruins. Before this, it was just a doorway at most, and sometimes it was just a crack in the wall that could be passed through, which seemed very perfunctory.

This door is also made of marble, with golden leaves inlaid on the door frame as decoration, and on the other side, there is a line of Latin letters that look like nails are pressed on the plaster.

'This is your last chance, you will face the messenger of nature incarnate'

Although she is called Queen Hera, in fact, Hera is the embodiment of natural power, roughly similar to the mother of the earth, Chastitya. In terms of the powerful power in mythology, she is probably stronger than Zeus. After all, when Zeus proposed to Hera, he said that he would share his power with Hera, so Hera can also use wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Simply put, Hera is the god of the earth, and the embodiment of the earth is a snake in many myths.

However, it is a myth after all, Li Chengxi still ignored the warning on the door, kicked the door from the outside, and walked in directly.

Unlike all the rooms he passed before, this place is very wide, and every wall has been well carved and decorated.

The skilled craftsmen in ancient times used marble, gold, silver, gems, and plaster to build a room comparable to a palace. Huge braziers were poked on the wall and arranged to provide sufficient lighting for the entire room.

But unlike what Li Chengxi imagined, he saw a big snake as soon as he entered the door. At the end of the room, he could only see a huge stone tablet.

So this is very strange. If you say it is a temple, there must be a statue, right? What's the point of just a stone tablet?

Charlie, who was following behind, looked at the room and soon heard the sound of flipping a notebook:

"The advance team has no record of this room. This room did not exist when the ruins were discovered."

This probably also shows from the side that we have finally found the right place, right?

Approaching the direction of the stone tablet, we can see from a distance that there seem to be some round things under the shadow of the stone tablet, but on the back of the stone tablet, plus the blind spot of the flame lighting is too large, it is not very clear.

Just as I was about to get closer, the stone tablet began to glow.

It emitted a light green light, and the light quickly spread and fluctuated like water waves.

Layers of light green light circles burst out from the stone tablet and spread in all directions.

This did not seem to be an attack. The light wave swept through everyone, and no one felt any physical discomfort, but the light wave seemed to be able to penetrate rocks, not blocked by any material, and spread to a very far place.

It should be said that it is normal for Hera's stone to glow green. After all, Zeus has cheated on her countless times, and it is literally a cuckold.

However, Li Chengxi stopped immediately when the light wave appeared. For the first time, he frowned slightly and looked a little serious.
