Chapter 416 - Mysterious Man

"Hu..."

Lod took a deep breath to calm the shock in his heart.

Although he had been mentally prepared before coming here and might discover a shocking secret, he did not expect it to be so shocking that even now, his heart was still beating wildly.

The content recorded on these eight stone tablets almost subverted his previous knowledge. The three forces of heaven and earth had joined hands to resist an unknown enemy a long time ago!

Moreover, if what he expected was correct.

Standing in the temple below the pagoda, the contents of the eight murals depicted the truth that he had been searching for all this time. The great battle that shattered heaven and hell in ancient times was most likely from this place!

Outsiders invaded the world of that time, attracting the three forces of heaven, hell, and earth to join forces to resist the enemy hidden by the black fog. Although they won in the end, they also paid a heavy price, which was the collapse of heaven and hell.

Who would have thought that the two mortal enemies, the Angel and Demon would join hands?

If the Vatican Pope found out that the Angel they believed in had joined hands with the Demon, who knew if he would be angered to death!

However, according to his understanding of the Pope, he reckoned that he would say that this was God's will the next day. In order to save mankind, he had no choice but to join hands with the Demon. He might even come up with a lie that was similar to 'the Lord once said'.

This is not Lod spreading rumors. Otherwise, where do you think the crusade is from?

After thinking about it for a while, Lod noticed that he had returned to the stone tablet. There was one thing that made him feel very strange.

The painter who was responsible for recording this history could be said to have the best painting skills of humanity.

Even though it was millions of years ago, the paintings left behind were still vivid and lifelike. It was as if one was immersed in that battle. Even the appearance of the Seraph and Mephistopheles were not missing.

The problem was...

Since his painting skills were so powerful, why did he choose to use the black fog instead of drawing the enemy?

"This black fog is so strange!"

Lod did not take a closer look just now. Now, when he carefully observed the black fog, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Moreover, there was a natural feeling of disgust, and he wanted to smash it and destroy it. However, he forced himself to resist and looked away from the black fog.

"Is it because you don't want to draw, or you can't?"

Lod frowned slightly. Based on his judgment, there were two possibilities for this situation.

The first was that the enemy's true body was like this. A strange black fog filled with an evil aura was not processed by the artist.

The second was not that the artist did not want to paint the enemy's true body, but because of some special reason, he could not depictthe enemy's appearance. It was like the legendary Zhang Senyou who didn't draw the eyes of a dragon. Once the eyes were lit, there would be an ominous occurrence.

Lod couldn't decide what the two were more inclined to.

At the moment, he still had too few available clues, and he couldn't infer what had really happened in those few bits and pieces of clues.

The layout of the entire temple was very simple. Other than the eight stone tablets painting accidents, there was only the spiral staircase leading to the Tower of Babel. Obviously, if he wanted to know the follow-up content, he had no choice but to climb the tower.

"It seems that I have no other choice."

Lod looked at the spiral staircase in the center of the temple and murmured, "If you want to find the next answer, you can only climb up this Tower of Babel and see if there are any hidden secrets at the end!"

The Tower of Babel, which was known as the Tower of Triials.

It was said that at the end of the tower was the legendary heaven where God was.

Fortunately, he had the opportunity to verify the authenticity of this legend.

But he didn't want to walk up step by step like a mortal. Not to mention the ridiculously tall Tower of Babel, who knows how long it would take to walk with two legs. He was not a religious fanatic, so why not fly up to save time and effort?

Therefore, Lod decided to cheat.

The ability to manipulate the Quincy was to simulate the wings of Reishi behind his back, and then with a light shake, his whole body turned into a ray of light, and rushed up the spiral staircase directly to the Tower of Babel.

Huhuhu-

The strong wind howled by his ears, making the tyrant outfit flutter.

Lod flew up along the Tower of Babel. Every time the wings of Reishi were waved, the speed would increase several times. Finally, the speed broke through the sound barrier, like a blue comet going against the current, dragging the rolling air wave and rushing to the sky!

One thousand meters...

Five thousand meters...

10,000 meters...

100,000 meters...

If it was Earth, he was probably on the stratosphere right now.

Looking at the ancient forest on the ground from this distance, there was only a green dot the size of a fingernail, but what was even more shocking was that Lod still could not see the end of the Tower of Babel!

"I don't believe it. If you have the ability, build it in the universe!" At this moment, Lod was also stubborn. He wanted to see how high this Babel tower was. While absorbing spirit particles to replenish it, he also rushed up at an even faster speed!

Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!

A huge ring of energy that could be seen with the naked eye continuously burst out from Lod's body.

An ear-piercing roar that tore through the sky burst out from it. The shockwave spread to a range of at least a thousand meters, instantly tearing the white clouds surrounding it into pieces. It was ignited by the flames produced by the friction when the speed was too fast and turned into a sea of fire!

This was because the speed at which Lod was flying was already infinitely close to the speed of when the man-made rocket entered the track. It was almost 28 to 29 Machs, which was the flying speed of 10 kilometers per second!

This speed meant that it was a considerable amount of kinetic energy!

Even if Lod did not do anything, traveling through New York at this speed would cause the destruction of a city!

After flying at this speed for dozens of minutes, Lod finally saw the end of the Tower of Babel.

That was... a temple?

At the end of the Tower of Babel, it was not God's paradise, but a sacrificial temple!

The scale of the temple was not very large. It was about thirty to forty square meters. It was built on the last platform on the top of the Tower of Babel. It was not made of the previous bricks and stones. It was made of material similar to the bronze door. There were also many characters of Akkadian engraved on the outside.

With doubts in his mind, Lod flapped his wings and climbed up the temple.

"Welcome, outsider."

A man with black hair, brown skin, and blue eyes, wearing an ancient costume made of sackcloth, was standing quietly outside the door of the temple. His whole body exuded a disgusting aura, as if the whole world was rejecting his existence.

"Who are you?"

Lod's eyes shone with a cold light. He quietly pressed a hand on sword's handle and said in a deep voice, "Looking at you, you seem to know that I am coming?"

"I will answer your question... but not now."

The man's eyes were extremely indifferent, with a kind of indifference that repelled people thousands of miles away, and a strange mechanical feeling. "The things you want to know, the history of thousands of years ago, are hidden in this temple."
