I swallowed and killed gods in a strange world

Chapter 103 The Vine Spire
I don't know what kind of engineering principles the builders of this strange city used to adjust the giant rocks so that they seem to have been kept in a weird state of balance since ancient times.

Li Henshui looked at the arched structures on the top of these buildings. Obviously, these arched structures should have played a key role.

Walking through the streets of this city, Li Henshui inspected the surrounding buildings with a vigilant expression.

The rooms seen through the curved glass windows of this monstrous building were all empty, devoid of anything portable.

It was as if the inhabitants of the city had planned to abandon their homes.

The almost ubiquitous wall carvings constitute the main feature of these weird architectural decorations.

Li Henshui stopped and looked at the wall closest to him.

After quickly browsing the contents of the carvings, she couldn't help asking the Pope who was walking not far in front of her, "Who are these carvings?"

"Their epitaph." The Pope turned his head and looked at Li Henshui coldly: "This is the legacy of ancient civilization."

"Remains of a civilization of non-humanoid creatures."

epitaph?
Li Henshui nodded hesitantly, staring at the strange creature carved on the wall, she couldn't help frowning and asked, "Have you found this kind of relic before?"

"slate."

"Both the Sequence Tablet and the Prophecy Tablet were discovered in a relic of a prehistoric civilization." The Pope stopped, with a sad expression on his face: "It was discovered in a relic near the sea more than 300 years ago."

"Also the remains of non-humanoid creatures."

She lifted her chin and looked at the tallest spire in the center of the city, surrounded by carvings that resembled arabesques.

The vine carvings are in clear proportions, and the smallest details on the complex plants are vividly portrayed.

She had never seen anything comparable in terms of precision of carving.

These patterns are all composed of complex symmetrical curves and angles, and each element is a multiple of five. The sculptors are well versed in various profound mathematical principles and have performed a peculiar treatment of far and near perspective.

Although there is a long time gap between these patterns and the present, she still couldn't help but be attracted to them when she saw them for the first time.

She sighed and turned to look at Li Henshui.

Li Henshui pursed his lips, lifted his robe and lifted his right leg to reveal the vine tattoo on his leg.

"How did you know it was me?"

"I've been following you all this way." The Pope said eloquently, "I saw you touching that stone pillar in the forest."

"Actually, I wasn't sure at first, until you opened the anchor point and the minaret appeared."

The Pope approached Li Henshui as he spoke: "What we have always done is for the preservation of race."

"Whether it's the current City Lord Qi, or the popes of past generations, or even the executive officer of your United Laboratories."

"We have never had selfishness. When you get to our position, you will understand our last resort."

"Oh." Li Henshui gave a disdainful laugh. She raised her head and looked at the Pope, with an unhealthy blush on her face. She said in a slightly hasty tone, "That's why you killed Mu Ye so decisively?"

"He's too much of a hindrance." The Pope said coldly, "What's the matter with that monster inside him?"

"I'm not sure." Li Henshui shook her head. When she saw Muye for the first time, she saw four different energies in Muye's body. At the same time, she also saw the bursting energy on Muye's left chest that swelled to the extreme.

She didn't dare to look straight after just one glance, but recently she noticed that the intense energy cluster on Makino's left chest seemed to have quieted down.

"Don't you regret it? He is a rare awakened S-level sequence."

"Every dust of the times falls on a person like a mountain." The pope looked at the bright dome of this space, her voice was faint: "The prophecy slate is too important to us."

"There's no room for error."

Li Henshui opened his mouth and didn't refute. She didn't know where they were now, and she didn't want Muye to find it.

The surging power of the Holy Light on the Pope in front of her was no less than that of Makino seen at the peak, and she also saw a strange energy that was not like the power of the Holy Light on the Pope.

"Let's go, you have your purpose in coming here." The Pope turned his head to look at the steeple not far away: "She's in there."

After the Pope finished speaking, he raised his feet and walked towards the steeple not far away.

Li Henshui pursed his lips and followed her steps.

It is true that she was led to this place, but what she never expected was that the person who led her here would be the saint of the Church of Holy Light who stole the tablet of prophecy more than 200 years ago.

Did she foresee her future through the mysterious prophecy tablet?
What purpose is she planning this matter with?

Li Henshui didn't know about this, and the gap in information made her feel as if she was in a fog.

Approaching the minaret, Li Henshui looked up at the arabesque pattern on the curved gate that was similar to her thigh, and her heart fluttered slightly.

The witch physique problem that has plagued her for more than ten years may be resolved after opening the door, and perhaps she can learn the secret about the witch from behind the door.

"Wait a minute." At the same time as the pope spoke, she condensed the power of the holy light in her hand and pressed hard on the arc-shaped door in an attempt to open the door by brute force.

"Bah."

The moment the Pope's delicate palm touched the curved gate, a dark red energy lit up from the arabesques and instantly enveloped the entire spire.

The burning pain in his palm made the Pope subconsciously withdraw his palm.

She took a few steps back and stared at the top of the steeple, her heart sinking slightly.

This energy is too unfamiliar and extremely powerful.

She looked down at the gradually shrinking granulation in her palm. She hadn't been injured for hundreds of years.

"Crack, click, click, click."

A sound of gears turning came from inside the steeple, and the twisted vines on the curved gate seemed to come alive.

The pope watched in a daze as the living vine twisted and deformed into a palm print.

"Try it." The Pope shouted to Li Henshui who was standing in front of the gate.

Li Henshui, who was standing in front of the arc-shaped gate, looked confused. The dark red energy enveloping the entire steeple in front of her eyes seemed to be reflecting with the blood in her body.

The diamond-shaped crystals in the center of her brows were also trembling violently, causing her eyelids to tremble unconsciously.

She slowly raised her right hand and stretched it forward. The dark red energy seemed to have found its destination when it touched Li Henshui's skin and poured into her body along the palm of her hand.

Li Henshui took a breath, and at the moment when the dark red energy entered her body, the diamond-shaped crystals between her brows penetrated her body with dark red light and instantly engulfed her.

She pressed her palm hard into the palm print that was almost custom-made for her in front of her, and suddenly, as if someone pushed her from behind, she staggered forward.

When she looked up again, her eyes were full of confusion, as if she had lost her soul.
