Chapter 429 Bat God!

"Okay, Captain, let's go in."

Seeing that the door was fully opened, Robin couldn't wait to finish talking to Kuro and walked in.

Kuro followed closely behind.

As soon as he entered the palace, a foul odor hit him in the face. Seeing this, Robin quickly tore off his clothes and tied them around his face.

Looking around the palace, I saw bat droppings everywhere in the corners and along the walls, piled up to two or three meters high.

What's more, Kuro also saw two or three fruit trees on several piles of manure. It should be said that pure fertilizer is very effective. The fruits on the trees seem to be much larger than usual.

"Captain, the smell here may be poisonous. Hurry up and cover your mouth and nose with your clothes."

Robin covered his mouth and nose with his right hand and spoke in a muffled voice.

"Don't bother with that. Just blow all these things away."

Kuro looked at the walls around him, the wind energy in his mouth gradually began to rotate, and then he puffed his mouth and a gust of wind blew forward.

The storm howled, blowing up the bat droppings in the palace. The fruit trees were also uprooted and blown out through the large hole through which the bats had flown out.

After a gust of wind, the bat droppings and stench in the palace were carried away. Although there was still a slight strange smell, it was not enough to poison people.

"Boom!"

After the storm subsided, a huge square stone suddenly fell from the top of the palace. Seeing this, Kuro immediately protected Robin behind him and punched the attacking stone.

"boom!"

With a dull thud, the square stone was smashed into pieces and splashed all around.

There was a cloud of dust in the palace, and Kuro pulled Robin and walked straight forward.

Walking out of the smoke, Robin suddenly patted Kuro's arm.

"Captain, look over there."

Kuro looked in the direction of Robin's finger and saw a large square hole high up in the palace. It seemed that the stone had fallen from there.

In the big cave, there are more than a dozen small bat cubs huddled together for warmth.

Some of the older bat cubs were trembling with fear from the sudden storm, and looked at Kuro and Robin with horror.

"They are the offspring of those bats. There is no point in keeping them. It is better to kill them."

Kuro looked at the bats and wondered whether to kill them.

"That would be such a waste. Let's take it back when we leave. It can be used as an experiment subject for Brother Indigo."

"That's right. Brother Indigo loves these special kinds of animals. Judging from the size of that white bat, these guys should have the genes of ancient beasts."

"Then pack them all up and take them away when you return."

After Kuro finished speaking, he released a trace of domineering aura, and the bat cubs were directly stunned.

"Let's go. This will prevent them from escaping while we search the ruins."

Seeing this, Robin smiled and nodded, then walked forward. The place they had just entered was the front hall of the palace.

In the center of the front hall stand four huge stone pillars, each of which is carved with many lifelike patterns and symbols.

Kuro took a look at it and gave up immediately. He really couldn't understand it.

After looking for a long time, he could only recognize the illustrations in the symbolic text, but there were not many illustrations carved on the stone pillars, so after looking for a long time, he still couldn't understand what the stone pillars meant.

Robin walked under the pillar, observing the patterns and symbols on the pillar while scribbling on the notebook with a pen.

Kuro saw Robin's mouth curled up and she looked happy, so he didn't say anything to disturb her. He stayed by her side silently to prevent any unexpected situation from hurting her.

After a long while, Robin finally put down his pen, and when he finished writing, he compared the notebook with the pillar.

After seeing that there were no errors in the symbols, words, and patterns on the two, Robin was satisfied and called Craw to walk into the palace.

"Captain, aren't you curious about what I was recording just now?"

As the two walked, Robin couldn't help but say curiously,

"I don't need to be curious, because I know you will tell me on your own initiative."

Hearing Robin's question, Kuro Kuro answered without thinking, looking at Robin with a smile on his face.

"Captain, you really have no sense of humor at all."

Robin looked helpless, but the smile in her eyes betrayed her. She raised the notebook in her hand to show Kuro.

"Captain, look here. The text above says that they worship a giant bat god. This illustration is their offering."

"They're using humans as sacrifices!"

"That's right. Captain, take a look at their gods. They should be the same as the white bat you just killed outside. Look here."

Robin pointed out a clear image of bats, depicting humans kneeling in worship, and although the details were fuzzy, there was a nest of bat pups above the palace.

Kuro looked at the illustration, then raised his head and looked at the cub above his head. The more he looked at it, the more similar it was.

After several comparisons, Kuro was speechless. These guys were just a little bigger in size. Apart from that, he didn't find any strange abilities. How could they be crowned as gods?

"Humans in the past didn't have much to pursue. They just blindly worshipped large creatures."

"No, Captain. It's recorded here that the reason they offer sacrifices to the Bat God is because every once in a while, the Bat God will start a trial, and those who are strong will be granted the power of eternal life by the Bat God."

Robin talked about the power of immortality. She expressed her doubts. If there really was immortality, this palace would not have become a pile of bat dung...

"The power of immortality..."

When he said this, a gleam flashed in Kuro's eyes.

"Robin, is there any record of the name of this island or this city?"

"No, it just records the sacrificial activities at that time."

"That's it..."

Kuro looked around. If he guessed correctly, this place should be the ancient town of Shui. However, when they landed on the island, they did not see any stone carvings with the name of the town, so they could not confirm it.

"Let's go, let's go into the interior of the hall, that's where the highlight of this palace is."

Hearing Robin's words, Kuro nodded, and the two of them walked through an archway and headed towards the inner hall. During this time, Robin carefully observed the surroundings to prevent any mechanism from being triggered.

But when she saw Kuro kick the stone man blocking the way to pieces, she gave up looking around.

"Captain's strength is really reassuring."

"You say that as if you just met me."

"I just got to know you all over again."

"Then I'll let you get to know each other better when we get back."

As they chatted, they walked deeper into the palace. After passing through the last door, they saw a towering staircase. On top of the stairs stood a huge stone platform, on which was enshrined a bat with its wings spread and roaring towards the sky.

"That must be the Bat God."

Kuro looked at the golden bat statue above, which looked as if it was very valuable.

"It should be right."

After hearing Robin's affirmative words, Kuro took a step forward and walked up the stairs. Just as he stepped onto the third step, he suddenly heard the sound of a mechanism ringing in his ears.

"what's the situation?"

Before Kuro could think more, several holes suddenly appeared on the stone walls on both sides of the stairs, and then dozens of arrows shot towards him at a rapid speed!

“Ding ding ding ding ding ding!!!”

Kuro didn't even try to dodge, letting the arrows shoot at him. No matter how sharp the arrows were, they couldn't do anything to Kuro's strong body.

After a hail of arrows, Kuro walked to the huge bat statue unharmed.
