After more than half a month of digging, Ryan and the others finally found the secret location of the legendary Camelot who was able to invalidate wizard magic. Probably because of the long period of wear, there is not much defensive magic left that should have existed. So Ryan: They easily opened a stone slab and found the way to beneath the ground.

The underground passage was carved directly into the rock, but it may have been built using magic, and the walls and roof of the cave appear surprisingly smooth. There are alcoves at intervals on the walls of the cave, which are supposed to have been used to place candles or oil lamps in the past.

For safety reasons, Ryan and Hermione did not use any lighting facilities. Instead, he relied solely on his night vision and walked down the stone steps. The stairs are narrow and long, and it is as if there is no end in sight. It wasn't until they walked for almost 20 minutes that the two of them noticed that the steps under their feet had disappeared, and a cave that was not very large appeared in front of them.

The roof of the cave is filled with sponge-like fungi that emit a cold sky-blue light that illuminates the outline of the things in the cave, while also making the roof of the cave look like the night sky.

"It's a magical sight, I didn't expect such a wonderful life in such a lightless cave. Hermione looked up at the glowing blue mushrooms, then looked down at a stone platform in the middle of the cave. "I could feel what we were looking for on that stone platform, because I could feel as if something was calling to me from above. ”

"Do you feel that way, too? I also felt something wrong with this stone platform when I walked in before. On the one hand, Ryan could clearly feel that there were some weak magic fluctuations on that stone platform, and on the other hand, that stone platform was also the only man-made structure in this space, and under normal circumstances, all important things would be placed in that place.

Carefully inspecting his surroundings, he summoned the Lady of Roses to dispel several of the magic traps that had been checked. I have to say that thousands of years ago, there were indeed magic masters who created an era, and they also possessed many powerful magics. Even many of today's important or commonly used magic. The earliest origins all come from that era.

But after thousands of years of development in the wizarding world, many complex magics that were originally considered to be top-level inheritances have now become commonplace. Therefore, Ryan easily disarmed the powerful defensive magic arranged around the stone platform, and then the two of them walked to the edge of the stone platform together.

This stone platform is a square double-layered stone platform, which is not very tall. It looks like an altar inside a church. The bright reliefs dyed with various pigments on the stone platform make the whole stone platform look much more lively and lively, and also bring a touch of vitality to this dead underground space.

"This is the legend of King Arthur," Ryan quickly recognized what kind of story these reliefs recounted, looking at the successive pictures on the reliefs, "From birth to Merlin's teaching, drawing the sword in the stone, establishing the Knights of the Round Table, fighting for a lifetime, to finally King Arthur, who was seriously wounded after the Battle of the Sword Railing, went to Avalon, here is the description of King Arthur's life." ”

In other words, the last renovation of this place should be after King Arthur disappeared from Avalon, that is, when King Arthur's kingdom began to fall apart. Hermione reacted instantly, "If that's the case, the thing they need to protect with a whole bunch of complicated magic should be something important but immovable." ”

"Your conjecture makes a lot of sense. Ryan said, pulling out his wand and starting to tap lightly on the props held by some of the sculptures on the stone platform in a special order, only then did Hermione notice that the various weapons held by the reliefs were actually made of wood or metal, and they were completely life-size small models of real weapons.

After the tapping, Ryan took two steps back and looked at the stone platform, which slowly sank after a clattering sound. When the stone platform completely disappeared from the ground, a Romanesque stone pillar slowly rose from the ground, and on the top of the stone pillar was placed a gray stone ball the size of a basketball embedded with gold wires.

"What a strong breath of death. As soon as the stone ball appeared, Hermione felt a suffocating aura of death sweep away from the stone ball.

"It's a grudge. Ryan thought about taking out a yellow rune paper from his bosom and throwing it out, but as soon as the rune paper broke away from Ryan's hand, it slammed and turned into paper ashes floating in the air in an instant.

"No problem, this is it. Looking at the paper ashes, Ryan determined the specific situation here. "The whole castle is a magic array, and the builders used these resentful spirits to cooperate with the magic of the moonlight to build a powerful magic circle in this place specifically for magicians. ”

"This method of exploiting the souls of the dead is too crude and seriously violates the laws of nature. For Hermione, who believed in the theory of the cycle of life, this kind of forcible restraint of the undead and their inability to obtain tranquility was unacceptable to her.

After all, destroying souls like Ryan did before with the Rosary was a means of keeping souls in the loop, and now this practice of completely restraining souls prevents souls from entering the cycle entirely.

"So I think we need to free these undead who have been bound for thousands of years now. Ryan examined the orb carefully and said to Hermione, "It's best for you to do this, it will help you understand the power of death." ”

"No problem. Hermione said as she took out the Golden Sutra of the Sun and the Black Sutra of the Dead from the space bag, although these two books had been taken out by the gods and had their own divine powers, but their precious materials made them still a very useful spell-casting prop after thousands of years of divine power immersion.

After preparing all the casting necessities, Hermione asked as she looked at Ryan, who took a step back. "If I let these wraiths calm now, then the magic circle that is now here will disappear with it. So—"

Before she could finish her sentence, Ryan waved her hand to signal Hermione not to worry. "Don't worry, I've already written down the structures of the magic flow in the castle during the exploration some time ago, and after coming in just now, I have also mastered the core technology of the entire magic array. ”

"Seriously, the principle of this magic array is not very complicated. I've basically figured out how this magic works, and we'll be able to add a new weapon to the Floating City when we get back. And compared to this ancient magic circle, which had to rely on the magic of moonlight to use, I think my new design should work better than this. ”

"Of course, I don't use the souls of the dead as a core. Finally, Ryan concluded, "It's a very crude method, for Floating City, as long as you use the tower spirit as the main guide core, and then use the flying stone crystal as the energy source, you can activate this magic at any time and form a forbidden area around it, just like Camelot." ”

"That's great," Hermione nodded happily, standing up and chanting the incantation. The ancient Latin incantation was chanted like an ancient ballad, and with the chanting, the two magic books began to glow one after another, and cracks began to appear on the stone balls. Through the rifts, Ryan could see some white light peeking out of the rifts.

Finally, half an hour after the incantation was chanted, the shell of the first stone peeled off the stone ball like an eggshell, and through the gap left by the stone shell, Ryan discovered that there was a ball of light hidden inside the stone ball. On the surface of the ball of light, one after another painful human faces kept bulging out and returning to flattening, revealing a strange taste.

The fall of the first stone shell was like a signal, and soon the stone shells in the rest of the place also fell, and finally only a white ball of light was left floating in the air.

"Now it's time for the next step. Looking at the white ball of light, Hermione made a gesture to her chest. With her gesture, the two magic books that had been placed on the ground automatically opened and floated into the air, and in an instant, gold and black light emerged from the pages of the two books, enveloping the entire cave in the light of these two colors.
