Extraordinary Sailing

Regarding Ai Wen's question, the man who was as tall as a phantom still didn't say a word, and even the expression on his face didn't change a bit.

Just maintaining the "please" action, just like those rigid stone carvings.

In spiritual perception, this is just an empty phantom, without any feedback of power, let alone a trace of spiritual fluctuations unique to the soul.

Even if he really stands in front of the three of them, he is completely like a mystery, whether it is the literal meaning or the real situation

Taking a deep look at the translucent face of the mysterious man, Aiwen winked at the two companions behind him, and walked in the direction he pointed.

The phantom of the man was walking beside them, and every step of the stride and swing of the arm was as precise as if measured by a ruler. On this point, Aiwen, who has a "digital vision", has the most say.

Tread Tread

The three of them walked up the water-eroded stone steps step by step to the first platform.

Kacha Kacha——

The white statues that seemed to be carved from marble opened their eyes one after another. The eyes of the stone carvings turned slowly, and a transparent pupil grew out of nothing in the middle of the pure white.

The head rotated at different angles to project the rock-like cold gaze on the three people at the same time.

"Alive?"

I don't know how long the seemingly ordinary rock statue "lived" after standing here, which made Milan, a wizard, feel like he was alive for a long time.

In such a ventilated and humid place, the facial features on your face have been eroded to the point where you can't see clearly, okay? Even a rock golem can't be so hasty, can it? What about the supernatural light? What about runes? There must be an energy supply system, right?

At this time, the broken statues on the ground that he saw in the first two original halls "Kingdom" and "Foundation" resurfaced in his mind. It turns out that those pirates did not intentionally destroy "cultural relics", but that these "cultural relics" really kill people!

Although the principle of these "living" statues is puzzling, the world of witchcraft cannot be judged by common sense, and everything can only be pushed to the magical witchcraft unique to a certain school of wizards.

Ka Ka Ka

While they were in a daze, the "living" statues had already stepped down from the stone base, and all kinds of weapons in their hands had been raised one after another.

At this time, the phantom of the man seemed to have seen nothing, and walked straight into the array of statues, passing through them.

"Do you want to fight?" Gary raised the long sword in his hand that had almost turned into a jagged sword due to the excessive force of the madness before, and was about to step forward to open a passage.

"etc!"

Standing in front of this building, the spiritual premonition in Ai Wen's heart has been clear to the extent that it seems to be able to directly convey information.

he feels

Without the continued guidance of the man's phantom, I took a light step forward.

A scene that surprised Milan and Gary happened!

The "living" statues took the initiative to move their weapons away, making way for Ivan.

However, when Milan and Gary wanted to keep up, they were blocked by the reunited array of sculpture warriors. Gary, who was a little irritable, raised his sword and was about to attack, but was stopped by Ivan.

"Since the owner here doesn't allow it, you should stay here for the time being. I will go in with that gentleman to visit the owner here."

Judging from the phantom of the man and the behavior of the "monsters" in the ruins along the way, it is obvious that someone deliberately arranged all this. Aiwen guessed that the reason why the owner here treats him differently is probably because of the inexplicable spiritual premonition in his heart.

It just so happens that I really want to know what the answer to the mystery that has been attracting me is!

The remaining Milan and Gary no longer persisted.

There are more than 200 statues in these three layers of grottoes, and each of them is at least the level of the late trainees. The torrent is enough to completely submerge three people, and the situation is indeed a bit stronger than people.

Milan only had to say:

"Okay, be careful! By the way, follow this."

He conveniently threw the bronze key that had been kept by him to Ai Wen. After all, the key pointed in this direction during divination, and it might be useful later.

"Call us if you are in danger, boss!"

Wave your hand to reassure them.

When Ai Wen turned around, he touched his pocket subconsciously. Although he didn't notice the danger, he still had the necessary vigilance and backup.

Proceed along the path that the statue warriors gave way to, climbing up the stepped grottoes layer by layer, and entered the largest grotto on the third floor, which is the uppermost floor.

As if obeying some strict rules, all statue warriors stopped outside this grotto, allowing Ivan to enter by himself.

Boo——

As if breaking through an invisible film at the entrance of the grotto, Ai Wen took a light breath, feeling as if he had suddenly come to a high-standard laboratory with constant temperature and humidity. Even if there is no door, it still firmly blocks the moisture and sea breeze from the outside.

Looking up, the phantom of that man was already waiting for him here.

Not daring to run around, Ivan followed behind him and continued to move forward.

Although no lamps can be seen here, the soft light from an unknown source fills every inch of space in the cave, without any gloomy appearance in the cave as imagined.

In addition to what you can see along the way, many things in this grotto are relatively well preserved, and there are not many traces of years of destruction.

On both sides of the aisle, the first thing that attracted Aiwen's attention were the cylindrical culture tanks made of ceramics. Most of them were taller than a person, and they were neatly stacked. There were hundreds of them at least.

Although from Aiwen's point of view, these equipment, which may be hundreds of years old, are a bit outdated, but it still gave him a sense of sight of entering the "Resident Evil" set, and he couldn't help but lighten his steps.

However, out of curiosity, Aiwen took a look at the inside of the opened culture tank on tiptoe. It was dark and dry, and he couldn't see anything that had been cultivated in it for a long time.

Just thinking of the tenacious vine roots, the "frogman" who walked upright like a frog and a fish, and the large lizard with a bone crown, Ivan guessed those strange "creatures" that had never been seen outside the world. It must have come from this place.

One person and one shadow continue to move forward, neither fast nor slow.

Along the way, there are huge biological specimens, cabinets containing materials (most of which are ordinary parchment papers that have been exposed to the air for a long time, and have long since decayed), various functional compartments, herbal material libraries, etc. Life, working facilities.

Without the luck that it was ceramic facilities in the first place, except for a very limited number of things in these areas that are well preserved, the long years have caused most of the things to decay.

However, it was not the time for curiosity to flare up, and Aiwen followed Xu Ying's footsteps closely. Finally, when I reached the end of this grotto, I saw the "master" here.

Well, as expected, it was the former owner.

It was a tall man, wearing the same wizard robe as Xu Ying's, and a large hardcover book was spread out on his lap. Obviously, this was just an ordinary secular book, without any wizardry experience. The handwriting on the paper page processed by the technology has been completely blurred.

It didn't look like any pretense or trap, just like an old man who accidentally fell asleep while reading on a recliner in the afternoon and never woke up again.

From Aiwen's point of view, he could just see his face, which had only one layer of skin left and completely turned into black and blue, which proved that he had long since passed away.

Looking up at the phantom that led him in, he seemed to have finally completed his final mission, showing a relaxed smile to Ai Wen, and then disappeared completely into light particles.

never said a word

For some reason, although the two of them had nothing in common except for their robes, Ivan had a strong premonition that Mr. Xuying and the person on the chair must be the same.

Even when he saw the snake's tail protruding from under the wizard's robes of the "master" of this place.

The tail wrapped in dark green scales is not as shriveled as the upper half of the human body, but has a cold iron color, more like a steel column than a flesh and blood body.

"Is this a snake man?

No, this should be a powerful wizard who has transformed his bloodline! "

Aiwen's accumulation of knowledge is enough for him to make a judgment closest to the truth, and the phantom is most likely what the wizard looked like before he underwent blood transformation.

However, the truth is as meaningless to the dead as to the living.

Probably because it is too close to the final "target".

hiss--

Suddenly, Ivan felt the bronze key in his pocket became hot, and Ivan shook it off to the ground when he was caught off guard.

Ding--

"Your appearance is obviously telling me that your lock is on this 'snake man'!"

Although the "master" of the ruins did not show any malice towards him all the way, but in this world, he can never be without guarding against others.

If you were in the world of martial arts in the previous life, you would inevitably have to bow three times and nine times to show your sincerity when you saw the remains of a senior expert.

But this is not popular in this world, well, Ivan carefully took out his scabbard.

Prudent.

Aiwen opened up the digital vision and spiritual vision, combined with "One Hundred Common Spells", "Adventurer's Self-cultivation", "Witcher's Adventure Rules", "How to Gracefully Open the Curses" that he supplemented in the "Shadow Library" A Coffin", "Wizard Tower Raiders" and a series of practical knowledge, after repeatedly confirming that there is nothing wrong with the "snake man".

With the scabbard, he lightly touched the only place on the body with extraordinary aura.

Kata!

An exquisite bronze box fell to the ground, and it matched the bronze key lying next to it in terms of style and material.

Going to re-examine the "snake man", there is no longer any extraordinary aura on his body.

Apparently the ancient wizard wasn't overly wealthy either, at least not at the time of his death. Since there are no other extraordinary items, Aiwen doesn't want to disturb his slumber too much.

At least in terms of respect for the dead, Ivan has a much lower limit than most people in this world.

After carefully inspecting the box using a set of procedures summed up by predecessors in the "Wizard Adventure Rules", Aiwen picked up the copper key that had returned to normal temperature, and carefully opened the exquisite bronze box.
