Chapter 184: The Forbidden Gate and the Legacy
The walkway leading to the underground was long and cold, and after a few steps of walking, Rowe felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped by ten degrees, and the lights on both sides of the walkway were quite dim, and after closer inspection, Rowe found that these light sources were the same devices he had seen under Plymouth Harbour.

The slender recesses in the walls lead to the depths of the corridor, leading to the mana storage device, which is probably so dim because it is probably to save mana, after all, the most important thing on this island is to rely on mana to maintain the barrier.
The damp smell permeated every corner, and with every step Rowe felt as his feet slippered, and the steps were still stretching downward, making him wonder if this kind of place was really a secret area of the sea.
"Mr. Sidley, since you've met Ash, you should know what type of magic Wandering Sea is best at, right?"
"Is the human body modified?" said Luo Wei bluntly, this is not a secret thing, Luo Wei knew something about it when he was in the clock tower.
"The reason why it is so cold here is to preserve the body, there are a lot of experimental materials needed for human body transformation, and the cold environment is convenient for the preservation of the body, so please understand. Solard knew that this kind of environment was difficult for ordinary people to bear, so he also said such things to calm Rowe a little calmer.
However, her remarks caused some dissatisfaction in Luo Wei's heart.
Recalling the giant baby that Ash made out of babies in Plymouth Harbour, Rowe couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach, thinking that that kind of technology should also come from wandering the sea, so what is there in this underground that no one knows?
Finally the stairs came to an end, and there was a straight passage in front of them, and Luo Wei roughly estimated that the distance to this place was almost the distance that Luo Wei walked from the pier to the halfway up the mountain, that is to say, here, directly below the entire peak.
The sound of machinery coming from the surrounding walls grew louder and louder, and it seemed to be close to the core that drove the entire island.
Deeper underground, the air became more and more muddy, and it was not only a cold feeling, but also a bloody smell.
On each side of the hallway, there was a large wooden door, and the smell of blood seemed to emanate from these two doors.
"Do you care about these two doors?" Thorad saw Rowe's gaze sweep over the two doors in the dim light.
"What's in here, the product of research in the wandering sea?"
"These two gates, as we call them the Forbidden Gates, are the final destination of all the failed products of research, to put it bluntly, like a garbage dump, they are all kept here, in order to remind us people not to forget the failures of the past, the disasters they have brought about, and the mistakes that have been committed. ”
It is not difficult to see from Solard's slightly heavy tone that even a magician who wanders the sea is very taboo about the things inside these two gates, and it can be said that he wants to avoid them.
"Of course, these two doors are under a powerful magic, and the things inside will not run out at will, and people outside cannot easily open them, and this smell cannot be removed. Sorad pointed to the sky. "All the products of failure here come from the research area of the island, and there is a special pipeline that will send the failed objects here. ”
"So, what's in there?" Luo Wei's hand unconsciously clenched into a fist, he knew that he shouldn't delve into it at this time, after all, he also knew that even if he knew what was inside, he couldn't change anything, just like that giant baby.
But even so, he still wanted to know how many terrible things these guys had done.
"Transforming the flesh that has failed, there are humans, beasts, and birds, and they will bite each other inside until the last one remains, but most of the time the failed ones can't even stand up, and can only become food for others. Solard's tone was flat, and he didn't feel any fluctuations in her heart.
"Then why is there no sound in there now, if it's the same as you say. Not only was there no movement of any fighting inside, but there was also a strange magic coming out of it, which made Luo Wei feel that the situation inside did not seem to be what Solard said.
"I'm just talking about what happened before, ten years ago, the matter of wandering the sea for the transformation of the human body came to an end, we only did research through dead bodies, and there have been no new failures in this for ten years, and the meaning of its existence now is just to tell us the mistakes we have made. ”
"yes, I'm sorry, it looks like I'm talking too much, let's move on. Luo Wei took the first step to the front, after all, there is only one way left, and whoever walks in front is the same.
Rowe didn't believe what Solard said and admit his mistakes? No kidding, how many magicians like that there are in the world?
Solard didn't say anything more, and took a step forward.
It didn't take long for a light to appear at the end of the corridor, and the noise of the surrounding machinery became much smaller, Luo Wei sensed it, and found that there were many magic arrays in the wall to reduce the noise, and it seemed that even people who lived on the island all year round could not bear the constant noise.
At the end of the corridor, the field of vision began to expand, and the bright light contrasted sharply with the dim corridor just now, and Luo Wei squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the underground world in front of him.
It's a large underground space, structurally a huge semicircle, with a flat surface and a round ceiling, with all sorts of magic-like lines carved into the walls, connected to a tall instrument in the center, and a constant gushing of magic inside.
Around the machine is a ring of guardrails, a square console, and beyond that are a dozen magicians in constant motion, dressed in white coats, walking around the place, notebook in hand.
Many mobile carts are placed in various places at random, with various sizes of utensils on them, which look very messy, and the only neat thing is the device that is attached to the wall to form an arc.
Rowe had seen this kind of thing, and the huge freezer that had sealed the giant baby was similar to these things, but instead of a freezer, it was a sink, and the cylindrical sinks were arranged in front of the walls, and the magician walked back and forth, observing the situation inside the sink.
The contents of the sink are even more varied, there are bones, there are animal remains, there are furs, in short, all kinds of things can be called by Rowe, and there is probably no one in the more than fifty tanks that is repeated.
"These are all wandering research projects, in the case of ensuring the survival of life, or simply using dead objects to conduct observation experiments, although the speed of progress is much slower, but this can effectively avoid the mistakes of the past. Sorad led Rowe to the side, and the magician next to him was very attentive, even if Sorad passed by, he didn't say hello.
"But isn't that right? Why is there no one, not even a human body. "The magicians who wander the sea are good at modifying the human body, but there is nothing related to the human body here, which makes Luo Wei a little puzzled.
"Human body modification is a more troublesome project, and there is a single room in it, which is where human research is conducted, come with me. Walking around the huge instrument in the center, Luo Wei glanced at it, and there were many things on it that looked like scales, showing the state of the device.
There are many similarities between this place and the sewers of Plymouth Harbour, and with Sorad, Rowe comes to an iron door made of similar material and construction to the door of the room where the giant baby was sealed.
Solard knocked on the iron door, which opened, and a magician poked his head out.
"Solard, where have you been? The person who spoke was an old man in his fifties, who seemed to be obsessed with research, his hair had fallen out, and his body looked extremely thin, and he felt that he would fall down when the wind blew.
"There's a guest coming, it's someone with an invitation. ”
"Cut, it's troublesome, I see. With that, the magician turned around and shouted at the people inside, "Hey, pause! ”
Under Solard's guidance, Rowe entered the room related to human experimentation.
There were more small lots than outside, and there was only one sink, but at least seven magicians had gathered to study the only one in the sink.
"This should be regarded as the third secret of the wandering sea, the matter of the Black Grail is inextricably linked to her, I think it is better for you to see this first. Solard said as he turned his head to find that Rowe was already standing still, his eyes fixed on the man in the sink, his face shocked.
"What's wrong? Mr. Sideley. ”
Rowe shook his head and didn't speak.
Why didn't Serra tell Rovi Einzberen's legacy what it was, but instead said something like "you'll know when you see it"?
Because Serra is right, as long as you see this thing, you can know that this is what Serra and Liz say, Einzbelen's legacy.
What can be the legacy of a magic family? The magic mark, or the magic itself, and for Einzbelen, the thing that can be a legacy is the artificial man, and the artificial human technology.
The person in the sink in front of her is undoubtedly an android, although she is much smaller in size, she looks like an undeveloped little girl, but she has the same white hair and white skin as Sera Liz, but there are many tubes in the sink inserted into her, which seem to be transporting nutrients, especially the pipe in her chest, which is the largest.
Her eyes were closed, and the countless red lines on her body flickered like magic circuits, would a normal person behave like this? Surely not, even the transformation of the human body in the sea could not make such a huge change to the human body.
"Ms Sholard, when I was in Plymouth Harbour, I saw a pamphlet about the Wandering Sea and the Einzberen house. Rowe turned his head, his expression had recovered a lot.
"It's just speculation, but I think the little girl in this sink should be an artificial human from Einzberen, right?"
Sorad didn't speak, glanced at Luo Wei, thought for a while, and then said slowly: "That's right, this is not a real human, but an artificial human, in a sense, it should be regarded as the inheritance of the Einzberen family." ”
Then she paused, apparently thinking about something.
"Hmm.... Name... I remember it was called.... Illyasfil von Einzberen?"
