Pirate Sequence: Start with Outlaws.

When he was obtaining the gems before, he had already discovered that these gems were very particular in terms of placement, distribution and types.

As an excellent alchemist, his intuition told him that this was some kind of formation, and most likely a sealing formation that was suppressing something underground, and those things were very dangerous.

However, the reason why Rune allowed his extraordinary people to take the initiative to obtain these stones was that he wanted to actively break the formation and release the things under the ground.

After so many years, apart from these gems that can maintain the balance of the alchemical formation, other things such as the formation patterns have become so faint that they are completely invisible.

In other words, the effect of this formation is already minimal.

But even so, the monster below still failed to break through the constraints of the formation.

Then it is very likely that these monsters have become weak to a certain extent after so many years.

This is also the reason why Rune dared to release the monster.

Not long after, the extraordinary people around gathered towards Rune.

Everyone had different gains and their faces were filled with joy.

These gems came at the perfect time. They were valuable but not important enough to have to be handed over to the Principality, so they could just be considered as extra income for them.

At the same time, they also felt the unusual movements around them after obtaining the gem.

According to the previously stipulated rules, they all gathered towards their commanders.

Rune's team of one hundred people quickly gathered together.

The holy light on Kasruituo's body spontaneously surged out and surrounded him, which meant that those threatening monsters were gradually approaching them.

"Colonel, you don't seem panicked at all. Have you known about this situation for a long time?"

Kasruto looked around and found that Rune's calm expression did not change at all, so he asked,

Rune nodded and replied, "The distribution of these gems is obviously a sealing formation. I did notice it before, but I have a rough guess based on the history told by Liad. The person sealed under this royal capital is most likely the person who failed to complete the ascension ceremony and was transformed into a monster."

"As their relatives, the Nami people will not kill them directly. Instead, they hope that they will regain their sanity. That is why they built this formation to unite the power of every household to suppress them."

"Now I want to take a look at the appearance and characteristics of these monsters, and learn more about the past of the Nami people. This may be very important for us to explore the Quicksand Knot of the God in front of us."

This idea of ​​Rune is a very common method in alchemy.

By studying a substance or individual affected by a certain energy, it is possible to reversely infer the characteristics of the ability to influence it.

The Constantine alchemy formation in front of him was obviously related to the quicksand knot of the god, so Rune had to start with these former Nano people.

Everyone waited there for a while, and the auras around them were getting closer and closer.

Soon, there were layers of ripples in the sandy ground, and a huge pig's head emerged from under the sand.

The fat man with big ears has a ferocious face, but his lower body is actually a human body.

His skin was covered with layers of cracks, some with sand-like lines, and flowing with light golden energy that looked like sunlight in the sky.

Rune immediately used the Peeping Eye to look.

【ability(??)】:

【Destiny】: 600——

The mutated ascender, after seeing the attributes of the monster in front of him, Rune fell into a brief thought.

The panel of this monster fully confirms the history previously told by Liad.

This group of Nano people really suffered from their mysterious curse, which led to their degeneration to this point.

There are already hidden uncontrollable factors in their path to ascension.

As a god, he only needs to make slight changes to the ascension process to completely cut off these people's path to promotion.

However, judging from the description on the panel, the original solar disc was able to upgrade a Sequence 8 individual to a Sequence 5 individual, which was also very powerful.

It completely spans three sequence levels, including one large level (Sequence 6 → Sequence 5).

It is hard to imagine, if those people of Sequence 3 or even Sequence 2 obtained the blessing of the Sun Disc, would they really become beings comparable to gods?

The distorted ascender pig-headed man in front of him did not attack immediately when he saw Rune and his group. Instead, he tilted his head and looked at them, as if thinking about something.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

But suddenly, there was a dark purple energy fluctuation in his body.

In an instant, he lost all his sanity and rushed towards Rune and others violently.

His head is totally disproportionate to his body, and his head is even bigger than his body.

When charging, his head forms an impenetrable barrier.

The spells cast by the extraordinary people when they fell on him were blocked by the barrier, and even Rune did not dare to block them head-on.

The pig-headed man's charge forced everyone to make way for him.

But he seemed to have no ability to fully control the direction and plunged into the complex of buildings.

Houses collapsed one after another, and he didn't stop completely until he ran hundreds of meters.

He turned around and rushed towards Rune again.

Looking at the pig-headed man approaching, Rune frowned slightly, took out the Destiny Shotgun, and shot him down head-on.

The pig-headed man's charge slowed down a little, but he was still moving forward. Rune fired the second and third shots immediately.

Three shots from the Destiny shotgun blasted the pig-headed man into pieces and his head cracked open, leaving only his body lying on the ground.

"This guy is quite strong." Rune made a quick judgment.

Being able to take three shots from him head-on was something that even an ordinary Sequence 5 would find difficult to do.

Moreover, the pig-headed man in front of him has weakened a lot after so many years, otherwise he would be even more terrifying than he is now.

"These guys are really amazing." Kasruto couldn't help but admire at this time, "It's a pity that they don't have any wisdom. It's really like their minds are blinded."

"What the old knights at home said is that the most important thing in cultivation is to cultivate your mind. If you gain a powerful force that you can't even control with your mind, you will become what you are now if you encounter any situation."

When Rune's gunshots rang out, the aura of monsters around them also increased significantly.

The extraordinary people dare not let their guard down at all.

After all, judging from the pig-headed man’s previous behavior, every monster lurking underground is extremely powerful.

They need to find very tricky angles to be able to fight the enemy.

Moreover, these guys have no wisdom at all, and some are even fearless of death.

No one thought of this place and fell into the hands of these monsters.

A rustling sound came from all around. As the sound got closer, the extraordinary people found that the movement of the sand under their feet seemed to be getting faster.

It was somewhat difficult for everyone to stand steadily on it.

At this moment, monsters emerged from all around.

"There are more than twenty monsters at the same time. The pressure is a bit great." Kasruituo took out his shotgun and stood ready with the surrounding extraordinary people.

No one expected that there was only one monster at the beginning, but now the number of monsters has reached more than twenty.

"Everyone, form groups of five and fight the monsters." Rune immediately gave the order.

The extraordinary people present immediately gathered together based on the principle of proximity.

The monster in front of Rune was a lizard man.

However, this lizard man is extremely strange. He has a human head and a lizard body.

He crawled slowly towards Rune, speaking some incomprehensible language, and did not attack them immediately.

"Wait a minute." Rune immediately stopped the offensive posture of the extraordinary people around him.

The lizardman crawled in front of Rune and did not attack again.

He looked at Rune with some curiosity, and then a look of pain appeared in his eyes.

There were those dark purple ripples again, and Rune frowned.

The lizard man had a look of pain on his face, as if he was making a final struggle against that energy; his distorted expression revealed his inner struggle.

He repeated the same words again. Rune silently memorized the syllables, but still didn't understand their meaning.

The lizard man seemed to know that Rune found this difficult to understand, and he used his trembling claws to carve a string of incomprehensible words on the sandy ground.

【gfdhmmfa~】

Then he turned and rushed towards his monster companions.

A ball of fire appeared, and he died along with several other monsters.

"It blew itself up!" Kasruituo couldn't believe it.

Following the self-destruction of the first lizardman, the other monsters seemed to have regained some sanity and began to kill each other.

The pressure on Rune and his men suddenly decreased, and the battlefield suddenly turned into a fight between monsters.

Soon, there were no monsters left on the battlefield.

After Rune checked his surroundings and found it safe, he immediately began to copy the words on the sand.

"These monsters seem to still retain some of their previous sanity." Rune lowered his head and said, "They should have clear minds at ordinary times, but when that dark purple energy or curse appears, they will fall into a state of madness."

"But what message does he want us to convey?"

Rune took a deep breath.

We still have to find Liad first to know, he may have some knowledge of this language.

After determining the target, Rune led his team and hurried towards the designated location.

When they arrived at a pass inside the Sand City, Liad and others had already gathered here and were resisting the invasion of the surrounding monsters.

With the help of Rune and his men, the first wave of monsters was finally perfectly resisted, but they did not dare to explore the city again.

Because ever since the gem was taken away and the seal was broken, those monsters have spread to every corner of the city.

The originally empty city was suddenly filled with traces of monsters.

"Colonel, you are finally here." Seeing Rune's figure, Ryan and Henry and other colonels felt relieved.

Even though they knew that Rune was very powerful, they had all received instructions from their superiors before setting out. If anything happened to Rune, they would not be able to afford it.

Rune nodded slightly to everyone, and without delay, he went straight to Liad and told him what had happened before.

He took out the rubbing of the font and imitated the syllables spoken by the lizard man, spitting out the words one by one.

【gfdhmmfa~】

"Do you know what this means?"

Liad frowned, thought for a long time, and then answered: "I don't understand the specific meaning, but part of it is clear. One of the syllables he said means 'save', and the other means 'grave, tomb'."

"So he wants us to go to the grave to save them. Where is the grave here?" Kasruto was a little confused. "Maybe these guys are not in their right mind."

"No." Liad shook his head at this time, "There is a grave here, you see."

He turned and pointed toward the wall over the pass.

"Colonel Rune, we arrived here before you did, and saw the inscriptions on the wall."

"I have also done some interpretation on the words on the wall. The general meaning of this wall full of words is that after the curse occurred, several demons descended from the sky."

"Because of the ascension of the one emperor and four kings, the entire Nami tribe no longer has anyone who can protect them, so those demon gods rule over everything they have."

"And a 'tomb' was built specifically for him to imprison the souls of the Nami people."

"In front of this pass is where the tomb is."

Listening to Liad's story, Rune nodded.

This is when the importance of knowledge is reflected.

If Liad hadn't been here on this trip, they would have been able to stumble around in the Nami ruins by accident.

Liad directed everyone to look forward.

Behind the pass, a complex of buildings can be vaguely seen.

That complex of buildings was completely different from the yellow sand in the previous city, and was made up of blue-gray stones.

The buildings are covered with various statues, which seem to tell that the devil rules everything in this world.

The pass ahead seemed to be a passage specially designed for this tomb. Rune and the others moved forward cautiously.

After entering the passage, the temperature of the surrounding, originally hot sand, suddenly became very low, making people shiver involuntarily.

When everyone had completely passed the pass, the complete complex of buildings came into their sight.

This is an extremely magnificent building, with three thousand steps leading up to it. Each step is twenty centimeters high and two hundred meters wide.

What’s strange is that such a tall building cannot be found at all from outside the pass.

Walking up the stairs and climbing to the thousandth floor, a dark blue stone statue of a demon with fangs and wings on its back appeared.

There were countless bottles and jars placed around him, all engraved with the names of the Nami people.
