Super Gene Chapter 2219 - Strange Stone Hall

Chapter 2219 Strange Stone Hall

The small city was shaped into a simple square. The well was at the center of the citys plaza, and at the end of every long street radiating out from the city center, the citys walls were visible at the far ends.

Behind the plaza was a stone palace, and on both sides of the gates stood stone statues. On the left side was a Nine-Life Cat statue. Aside from it being bigger than an actual Nine-Life Cat, it looked exactly the same in all its features. It even gave off an identical feeling. It was creepily similar.

And on the right side of the gate was a statue of a warrior that was plated in armor. In addition to the armor, it wielded a bone knife. The warriors face and hands, which werent plated, were skeletal.

This statue must be General Ghost Bone, but if this is his city, then he is the owner of this place. Why would his statue be near the gate like a guard, then? Han Sen then had an idea, and his breath caught in his chest. The statues for the Nine-Life Cat and General Ghost Bone are before the gates like guards. Does that mean the owner of the palace was actually the Sacred leader?

Han Sen tried to think of other options, but he couldnt come up with any other figure in Sacred who might have used those two as guards.

Han Sen didnt know the exact nature of the Nine-Life Cats association with Sacred, but General Ghost Bone was one of the ten generals. Surely only Sacreds leader could command a man like that to guard the gates.

Han Sen used his Dongxuan Aura to scan their surroundings. He couldnt detect any other creatures in the vicinity. Perhaps Inspector Edward had already managed to find what he had come for and then left.

Han Sen didnt want to take the risk of leaving the well just yet, however. The gate ahead was open. With it being ajar, it was hard not to suspect someone might be there. He had to be careful.

You guys wait here; I will go and take a look. Han Sen looked at Huangfu Jing, who was beside him in the water, then he touched Little Invisible. After that, Han Sen disappeared. He climbed out of the well in secret.

Han Sen approached the palace, using his Dongxuan Aura to hide his presence completely.

Han Sen walked in front of the palace with great care. When he looked inside the palace, he was stunned.

Because the city wasnt that big, the palace was mostly comprised of one hall. From his vantage point, Han Sen could see everything in the hall. And curiously, there were many holes in the floor of the hall. They were like graves.

There were two people inside, and they wore badges that identified them as belonging to the Ice Blue Knights. They were resting atop a statue. After Han Sen saw what that upside-down statue depicted, he was even more surprised.

That statue looked exactly like the one he had been in the Human Emperor shelter. Han Sen thought the statue inside that palace would depict the Sacred leader, but oddly, it was actually a statue of the Human Emperor.

No way. The Human Emperor came from Sacred? These timelines dont align. The Human Emperor was in the sanctuaries, and he had been there for many years. Sacred was already destroyed before he left the sanctuaries. So, how can his statue be here? Han Sen walked over to the door and looked inside the hall. Aside from the Human Emperor statue, there was nothing else. There were only some stone tables and stone chairs.

Including the Human Emperor statue, though, everything stone had been heavily damaged. At first, Han Sen could only see one half of the broken statue, as the other half was nearby.

Clearly, someone was looking for something in this hall. But whatever it was, they hadnt found it yet. If they had, two of them wouldnt have been guarding the area as they were.

Han Sen looked at those two Ice Blue Knights, and he noted that they were neither weak nor strong. They might have been Dukes, but they didnt belong to the Extreme King. One of them looked like Exploding Bear, while the other looked like a Dragon hybrid. He had the horns, but he didnt have the dragon wings.

I say that Inspector Edward must be mistaken. If this was the holy place belonging to the Sacred leader, then how come we havent found the relic that were looking for? asked the Fire Bear Duke with a sigh.

If Inspector Edward says it is here, then here it is. Now, shut up and go back to work, the hybrid Dragon Duke said.

I want to work, but I would like to know how to work, the Fire Bear Duke chuckled.

The hybrid Dragon Duke frowned and said, Ice Blue Knight King didnt come back in time, so it was up to Inspector Edward to deal with them. Otherwise, the knight king would have spotted something fishy going on. Just wait a little while longer. Inspector Edward will soon contact us and tell us what to do.

At least Han Sen had learned that Inspector Edward hadnt yet found what he had come there for. Han Sen kept eavesdropping, but he didnt hear anything else about the holy place or the Sacred relic they were searching for.

Hed been able to confirm the presence of treasure, though.

Han Sen didnt enter the hall. He walked around the city first. Many of the places had been rummaged through, and many of the buildings had been toppled. The Inspectors knights must have been searching there for a long time, but they hadnt yet found what they had come for.

Han Sen wasnt good at finding things, so he wouldnt be able to find where it was hidden, either. If Inspector Edward couldnt find whatever it was, then Han Sen surely couldnt.

Back in the plaza, Han Sen looked again at the stone palace. He noticed there were no signs or plaques adorning it. The building was very roughly constructed, and there were no carvings or paintings upon its surface.

But judging from the statues around it, the palace shouldnt have been built too long ago. If Han Sen had to make a guess, hed wager it was only around 10,000 years old.

Han Sen looked at the statues of General Ghost Bone and the Nine-Life Cat again. He confirmed that they were nothing special, and that they were indeed just statues. The materials for their construction had most likely come from the nearby mountains.

Han Sen was annoyed by his lack of progress, so he summoned his Purple-Eye Butterfly beast soul. His right eye turned purple as his pupil split into four sections. He looked at everything around the palace, and he even examined the two statues.

Nothing... nothing. His eye analyzed everything, including the statue of the Human Emperor. They were all made of ordinary rocks, a material that was everywhere across Planet Ice Blue.

Han Sen kept looking around until something caught his attention.

Near the Human Emperor statue was a cracked stone tile. It looked like it was supposed to belong to a canopy that had once sat above the head of the Human Emperor statue. The stone tile was a chunk of that canopy.

The Human Emperor statue had been cut in half, and the canopy had broken as well. It collapsed near the statue, and some of it broke into pieces, whereas other sections remained intact.

When Han Sen scanned over the rubble, he saw that most of the stone fragments were ordinary chunks of rock. They were nothing special.

But Han Sens eye couldnt analyze one of the stones.

Han Sens eye was using a deified beast soul. If that deified power couldnt analyze a piece of rock, then that was an anomaly that Han Sen found very, very interesting.
