Alice's Dream Club

# 20. Temple of the Gods

The reason for this premonition is the way Hermes opened the door: After confirming that the iris authentication and fingerprint authentication were invalid without energy supply, he began to try to use a crowbar to knock open the sealed airtight valve. Heavy doors.

Not to mention whether crowbars, which are full of peculiar settings, can really be opened, this authentication method alone makes the secrecy here invincible.

Once the energy is cut off, it's all over.

So II began to brainstorm on the matter of opening the door.

"Hey, isn't your scepter able to generate electricity? Why don't you try temporarily electrifying the lock?"

"I don't think so," Mu Xinyi withdrew the real yuan that was trying to replace the energy source, "There is no design such as a backup battery pack inside, and even the overall structure does not have the design that you use a temporary closed circuit to open the door, instead of thinking about it." As for charging, it’s better to find the keyhole that matches that scepter.”

"I've looked for it," Alice sighed, "There is no corresponding slot that can be inserted."

Glancing at Alice, the Second King suddenly clapped his fists: "Isn't Alice a battery that can go quickly, let her act as a battery, and we can build a closed circuit by ourselves?"

Alice, who was about to use her own method to open the door, immediately stared at it.

The ferocious energy made the Second King shrink his neck in fright.

"Want to fight!?"

Coaxing the few people, including Hermes, who tried their best not to find a reliable way to open the door, Lynch, who was standing in front of the door, asked without looking back: "There is no procedure for door opening to cause self-destruction. Bar?"

"There is no energy supply now, even if there is, it will be invalid." Hermes responded.

"That's fine, leave the rest to us."

After confirming that this possibility would not happen, Lynch nodded, then raised his arm and hit the airtight valve.

Bang!

Although Lynch felt as painful as a grandson, the air-tight valve suddenly loosened under the powerful impact.

After the protection was done, he smashed a few times on the still locked air-tight valves again, and with the roar of a series of steel impacts, a gap was finally opened in the heavy door.

Shaking his numb hands that were still shaken by the shock force even with protection, Lynch took the crowbar from Alice and knocked open a gap, then nodded to the Second King.

Er Shi bumped into the enlarged gap and placed a small mechanical device with scales at both ends, and then dragged Lynch to a distance at a fast pace.

Alice and Mu Xinyi also left the gate.

Before Hermes could inquire about the specific situation, he heard a crisp shout from the positions of several people in the club.

"hide……"

boom! !

The smoke and dust dissipated, and the heavy door was pushed open by the impact of the explosion to allow two people to pass through. At the same time, Hermes, who was affected by the explosion, changed his skin color and race on the spot.

He looked at his situation and coughed a few times: "I think if it detonates, we should say it earlier..."

Second, who returned to the door, shook the detonator in his hand: "Optical remote sensing, the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound, so there is no way, the law of the universe."

Hermes: "..."

Hermes was so powerful that he could only swallow the pain in his stomach, and soon returned to his previous heroic appearance.

Lynch narrowed his eyes and looked inside for a moment, then tentatively said: "I'm thinking, there must be light."

Immediately, a ball of light capable of illuminating a radius of about ten meters appeared beside him, and his will could be executed smoothly even in the dream plane, which made Lynch feel a lot more relieved. Doubts: why few people who went to the dream gate before returned; why this place is clearly independent of the real world, but their own will can still be executed; why the world inside the dream gate does not look like the rumors It is extremely dangerous.

These are relatively core issues, but before these issues are investigated, the top priority is compliance.

He walked into the gate first, and the light from the ball of light illuminated the surroundings: the place he was in was a fairly spacious hall, and there were some huge existences faintly outside the range of light. Under the reflection of the peripheral light, Lynch could see silhouettes that resembled human figures.

After walking forward for a certain distance, there were still those dim figures on both sides. Out of curiosity, he said loudly: "Be brighter."

The light ball used for illumination shot towards the zenith here immediately, and then, the light descended, and the darkness in his place was instantly expelled.

This is a cushion hall full of ancient atmosphere. Lynch is now on a path paved with red bricks and stones. On both sides of the path are tall and majestic stone statues. They are arranged neatly until the red At the end of the masonry path, there, on the luxurious throne, a statue of a middle-aged man holding a scepter sits here.

He has a kind but serious face, and his eyes are looking directly at the gate, as if he is staring at everyone who enters the gate.

Lynch was safe and sound, so Alice and the others entered the hall step by step. Everyone except Hermes was looking at the sculptures, and Hermes was looking directly at the statue sitting on the throne.

"Zeus..."

Signaling Alice to keep an eye on Hermes, Lynch came to the blasted door and sealed it again.

The ear-piercing sound made everyone look at him. Facing those confused eyes, Lynch said indifferently: "To prevent the boring unfolding that will be interrupted by others because you don't close the door when you are doing business in the routine, close the door casually." It's a good habit."

Everyone: "..."

After closing the door, Lynch came to Hermes' side.

"This is the temple of the gods? I don't seem to have seen your sculpture."

"It's true that there is no me," Hermes nodded, "Not only is there no me, Aphrodite and Ares are also not among them."

"Huh? The two of them also have missions similar to yours?" Lynch asked.

"No," Hermes twitched the corner of his mouth a few times when he mentioned this, "the people here are all those who participated in the transfer plan back then. One of them is full of wars in his head, and the other can't do anything except teach others how to be beautiful every day. If you do anything else, it will easily delay the implementation of the plan, so you will be temporarily kicked out..."

The Second King probably wanted to say something, but was photographed back by Alice.

"I remember Alice said that people who have exhausted their divine power are just sleeping," Mu Xinyi looked at the statues, "Then could these statues be the deity who exhausted their divine power and solidified into such a sleeping deity?"

Hermes immediately denied it.

"...Actually...we are also human beings...divine power is just a kind of energy unique to us, so even if we are asleep, we will not turn into solid stones..."

Hearing the words, Mu Xinyi immediately looked at the Second Prince clearly, the meaning conveyed by her eyes was obvious: Look at him, it's completely different from the embarrassment of turning others into stones and finally turning yourself into a stone.

The Second King felt that he should refute something at this moment, but he couldn't find anything to refute at all.

In the end, she could only mutter aggrievedly: "Then who made me a trash Elizabeth..."

If it wasn't for the time, Lynch would have slapped himself on the forehead by now.

"Go and see Zeus?" He changed the subject forcefully, "Since the scepter in your hand is a part of Zeus' scepter, maybe there is something in his statue that you want..."

"No, this is just a hall for scenes."

Hermes said as he held up the scepter in his hand. At this time, the scepter had faded from the color of the pulp and iron. It was like a delicate cylinder, and the whole body faintly exuded a transparent and crystal clear color. look.

After this transparency, Lynch was able to see its complex internal structure that was so sophisticated that it was impossible to understand. Lynch couldn't find a more suitable metaphor for the level of precision. He felt that the more popular term could be understood as one hundred and eighty yuan. The degree to which a mechanical watch blends together.

It should be more than this amount.

With the injection of Hermes' divine power, Zeus's virtual image projection reappeared.

Unlike before, Zeus now had a complete body. He stood shirtless in front of Hermes, looking at him with only kindness.

"Is it Hermes? Or Afu? If it's Ares, you don't need to listen to the message later."

Hermes: "..."

"If it's Afu, be obedient and send the things to Hermes. Your ability may not be enough to deal with the next arrangement..."

This time it wasn't just Hermes, even Lynch and the others who were watching had black lines on their faces.

What's going on with this Zeus?

As the set waiting time ended, Zeus continued: "Hermes, if you got this part of the scepter, you must bring it back to Olympus no matter what. North is about to wake up, if the scepter can't start working again, everything we have done before will be useless, sorry, we can only hope for you."

The original intermittent message was completed at this time, and Zeus disappeared after finishing the message.

Looking at the scepter in his hand, Hermes' expression gradually turned serious.

He pondered for a moment and turned to look at Lynch: "Sir, I..."

"Do you want us to avoid it?"

Hearing the words, he was taken aback for a moment, and then shook his head slightly: "I think I still need your help, at least until I fully activate the scepter."

"Oh, that's easy to say, the content of the deal itself is to protect you until the end of the dream gate," Lynch nodded, but then changed the subject suddenly, "But do you want to continue to talk to me about the details?"

"To be honest," Hermes sighed, "I don't know exactly what's going on. If it's about using the scepter to suppress Cloros, then this part shouldn't be thrown out alone, so Now if you want to know the rest of the truth, you can only..."

Hermes looked up at the dome, his gaze seemed to penetrate the space, reaching the place he was about to arrive at.

"...Go to the core area first."
