Chapter 603: Chapter 427: The Huge Gate_2

On the other side, Asher’s expression became solemn, and he nodded to the old magician.

“Yes, City Lord.”

Upon hearing this, the old magician’s wooden magic wand suddenly glowed with a strong earthy yellow light.

The next moment, accompanied by a sudden strong gale, numerous sand and soil gathered in the air under old Calvin’s command, forming streams of sand descending from the sky.

Then, it covered the gigantic steps nearly two meters tall with smaller steps suitable for ordinary people, extending deep into the underground.

Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.

For him, who had already attained the Tier 3 Peak Level, his physical abilities had long been extraordinary, so these large steps were not a challenge.

However, for many of the elite soldiers at the rear of the team, especially the heavy infantry clad in heavy armor and the weaker mages and priests, crossing these large steps would undoubtedly be somewhat difficult.

After all, there was an insurmountable power divide between Tier 2 and Tier 3.

“That being said, earth system magic sure is convenient for building cities and bridges.”

“Although both of them, as well as the current earthen steps, require periodic replenishment of magic power to maintain their original state, they can still play a significant role in some special environments.”

“At present, I have two Tier 3 earth system mages under my command: Xenia from Milan Town and Ned from Magnet Town. I must cultivate them as soon as possible, having several powerful earth system mages is undoubtedly a prudent move.”

Surrounded by the knights and the hidden Taylor, Leo Ray followed Asher and the others while pondering these thoughts.

Next, under the illumination of Light Crystal Stones, the exploration team of over a hundred people stepped onto the solid earthen steps and went deeper underground.

About half an hour later, a huge stone gate at least 15 meters high gradually appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Upon closer inspection, the surface of the gate had no carvings or emblems, appearing simple and heavy, but conveying a majestic and magnificent feeling.

It seemed to silently narrate the glorious era it had once witnessed.

“Wow, is this the entrance to the ancient ruins?”

“As expected of the legendary Titan Tribe, even the steps and the gate are breathtaking.”

“I wonder, what kind of scene awaits us behind the gate?”

Looking up at the enormous gate that was almost as tall as a five-story building, a chorus of exclamation started to resound within the team.

In the middle of the team, even Leo Ray couldn’t help but show a look of astonishment on his face. Such a massive gate could easily accommodate Red Night in her Dragon Clan form.

“Mr. Christopher, back then, our exploration stopped here. As for what lies within, whether it is a terrifying Guardian of the ruins or endless treasures, let us all witness it together,” said Asher as he clenched his magic wand, exuding an explosive aura and ready for battle.

In an instant, the earthy air around them became extremely tense and oppressive.

Following that, the sound of clashing armor rang out.

The elite soldiers at the back of the team, under the command of their captains, quickly moved forward and formed ranks, preparing for battle against any possible enemies that might appear.

Leo Ray and the others, naturally, stood at the rear of the team with Asher.

In a short period of time, the heavy footsteps gradually faded.

When the soldiers finished forming their ranks before the gate, Asher nodded to old Calvin.

“Leave it to me.”

Seeing this, the old magician, who had been standing by in front of the gate, took a deep breath and gently touched the top of his wooden magic wand to the giant gate.

The next moment, his powerful and resolute chanting echoed, and an earthy yellow hexagram magic array quickly expanded from the top of the magic wand, rotating and enlarging along with the increasingly impassioned chanting.

Finally, it almost completely covered the entire gate.

In a short time, accompanied by a “crack” sound, similar to unlocking a door, the gate responded with a thunderous rumble as it opened inward.Next, an ancient and vicissitudinous atmosphere greeted them, making everyone feel an involuntary sense of awe.

At this point, the ancient relics of the Titan Clan opened their long-sealed doors to Leo Ray and his party.

At this moment, squinting his eyes to look inside the gate, Leo Ray noticed.

In the unknown area ahead, there were no guardians of the ruins or massive treasures, but instead appeared an immensely vast underground space.

From the current perspective, it was impossible to determine the specific purpose of this space.

“Master Calvin, well done.”

After a moment, confirming that there was no danger, Asher couldn’t help but let out a sigh and nodded to the old magician.

“Hehe, Lord Asher, you flatter me. According to the ancient documents, the Titan Tribe is not skilled in magic, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to unlock the magic restriction on the door so easily,” said the old magician with a smile, wiping the sweat from his brow first then raising his sleeve.

Although he said that, his exhausted face clearly showed that things were not as “easy” as he claimed.

“Alright, let’s move on.”

Then, Asher nodded to Leo Ray beside him and took the lead.

“Can’t wait any longer.”

Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and followed along, surrounded by the knights.

At the same time, while moving forward, Leo Ray noticed.

At present, the elite soldiers ahead had automatically divided into three parts.

A squad of mages with their magic wands emitting dazzling light beams like searchlights, escorted by two squads of heavy infantry, formed a small phalanx, scouting ahead.

Two more squads of heavy infantry marched on the left and right sides of the team in column formation.

As for the other elite soldiers, they still brought up the rear of the team.

Thus, surrounded by hundreds of troops, they stepped through the giant gate.

A look of astonishment appeared on Leo Ray’s face.

With the dazzling light beams shining from different directions, Leo Ray discovered.

The area here was extremely vast, resembling the underground square of Dragon’s Lair city. Even magical lights couldn’t reach the end, and the height was at least 60-70 meters.

Moreover, to the left and right of the exploration team, about 100 meters apart.

A row of cylindrical blue stone towers with diameters of about 10 meters stood on each side, reaching to the ceiling, creating an incredibly spectacular sight.

Upon seeing this, Leo Ray paused for a moment, and then it dawned on him.

These were not giant blue stone towers, but rather two rows of huge blue stone pillars!

“I have to say it really feels like stepping into a giant’s kingdom,”

Realizing that, Leo Ray, looking around and up, couldn’t help but curl his lips slightly.

Meanwhile, a series of astonished exclamations rose around Leo Ray.

Including the ten Tier 3 knights beside him, their movements were noticeably sluggish, clearly all in a state of amazement.

Next, instead of continuing directly, Lord Asher instructed the elite soldiers to form small squads and cautiously explore sideways.

Eventually, after some investigation, they roughly confirmed that this place was a closed indoor space.

Although the length remained unknown, the current width was at least 500-600 meters, which was extremely massive.

Furthermore, different from the seemingly simple gate.

On the walls at the lateral ends of both sides, numerous murals were engraved, mostly depicting violent or sacrificial scenes, all appearing incredibly bloody.

This obviously indicated that the Titan Tribe was undoubtedly a warlike and bloodthirsty race.

“However, speaking of which, what exactly is this place of the Titan Clan? What will we find ahead?”

At this moment, a look of increasing curiosity appeared on Leo Ray’s face as he murmured to himself.
