227 Stone Pillars

The inquiring look was not answered, and Hart only shook his head slightly. Seeing this, Kevin didn't ask much and stretched out his hand to heal his wounds.

The starry light converged between the slender fingers, slowly condensing into a gentle web, and the ugly incantation was gently wrapped in a flickering light.

But Hart didn't feel much better from this holy magic. Both the Shadow and the Divine wanted to completely devour each other, and the two opposing elements collided violently in their bodies. He only felt that his internal organs were burning, his body was hot and cold, and his face was as pale as paper. It was only for a moment that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing his friend suffering, Gray's palms trembled slightly.

It's all his fault.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't listen to the advice and insisted on being strong, with Hart's skills, he would never have been successfully attacked by that dry corpse, and it was impossible for him to desperately cast spells in order to save him, until his magic power was almost exhausted. Even though the last damned corpse had been ground into mash by him with his great sword, it still couldn't quell the hatred in his heart.

But what he hates the most is still the self who underestimates the enemy.

Just as he fell into deep self-remorse, his abdomen was unguarded and he was slapped with an elbow. Gray looked up, only to see a hint of contempt flash across Hart's pale face, "What? If you're a little frightened, your Excellency the Swordsman won't be able to? ”

Gray's breath stagnated, and the little bit of guilt that had just emerged was immediately gone, and he subconsciously began to fight back, "You want to try?" ”

Hart glanced up and down and sneered.

Idiot.

The weird smile of yin and yang made people's teeth itch with anger, and Gray suddenly realized that he was really stupid when he was still sad for him before. Just as he was about to talk back, Kevin next to him smiled nonchalantly.

"Both, although I am generous, I don't care about you flirting in front of me, but please let me know when I'm done, so I can continue the rest of the treatment." When it was over, he raised half of his eyebrows with a smile, "But looking at your situation, I shouldn't need to do much." ”

Hart:......

Gray:......

Du Yuhan, who was caught off guard and was poured a large mouthful of dog food: ......

Under the strong treatment, Hart's expression was much more rosy, but there was still a big gap before recovery. However, they also knew that this was only a palliative solution, not a cure, not to mention that Kevin had already consumed a lot of mana, and if he encountered danger in the future, it would be more than worth the loss.

After walking all day, the team was sleepy. After a brief discussion, the team decided to rest the night in this stone hall.

Of course, the necessary defenses and night watchmen are essential. After encircling the fourfold defensive barrier and allocating four periods of vigil shifts, everyone hastily ate dry food and hurriedly rested in their clothes. It's just that in this dangerous place, how many people can sleep peacefully, it is unknown.

However, Du Yuhan didn't think about it so much, and fell asleep with Kevin in his arms as soon as he covered the roll.

But even under this strict protection, the next morning, the number of people was counted and found to be nearly one-third less than before.

The crowd was terrified. The night was calm, and the team on the guard did not notice anything unusual, but the missing person disappeared as if he had evaporated from the world.

Have the enemies lurking in the shadows reached this terrifying level? So can they still get out of this encirclement and suppression operation?

Restless whispers flowed wildly underneath, and people's faces were filled with fear and hesitation.

For a while, people were panicked.

The regimental commander was also shocked by this night attack, and they had no idea how the enemy was attacking, let alone counterattacking. But after all, it was a high-ranking commander who had experienced many bloody battles, and the negative mood only lasted for a while, and then he immediately reinvigorated.

The dangerous environment and the weak living force no longer allow them to send people to find them, no matter how unwilling they are, they can only grit their teeth and continue to move forward. Under the arrangement of the regiment commander, the remaining 20 or so people entered the small stone gate in an orderly manner.

With the previous lesson, the marching team members followed closely in pairs, for fear that they would fall into the enemy's trap as soon as they turned their heads. Some of them are less courageous, and even directly pull the cloak or hem of the team member in front.

Du Yuhan couldn't help but laugh.

Is this a kindergarten crossing the street?

However, before he could finish laughing, he found that his sleeves were pulled by a pair of white palms.

Du Yuhan: ......

"What's wrong?" Kevin frowned in confusion.

“…… It's nothing. ”

Walking through the oppressive and narrow corridors, the large army once again saw the familiar small stone gate. However, before they could push it away, they felt a strong and mellow energy slowly escape from the crack in the stone gate.

The open hall was empty, and on each of the four walls of the stone hall was a narrow stone door. The vaulted ceiling of the hall also has four corresponding square holes.

In the center of the stone chamber stands a huge ...... Stone pillar. Its shape is twisted upwards, and from a distance it looks like a figure standing in a strange position. The pillar body was covered with dense rune spells, and from time to time, several energy beams flew by, and the energy pulsated around the stone pillar, and the whole pillar flickered and dimmed like breathing.

The most strange thing is that at the top of the pillar, there is a stone ring the thickness of a woman's arm, shining with a dazzling blue light, like a lighthouse in the dark. A finger-thin laser beam shot through a small hole in the ceiling, and after passing through the very center of the glowing ring, it sank straight into one of the small stone doors.

Du Yuhan looked at it for a long time, and he couldn't tell what kind of material it was. With a twitch of his nose, his sword eyebrows tightened.

Tsk, the smell of gasoline is almost smoking.

Cobwebs dotted the corners of the hall, and slender spider silk was wrapped in blue-purple energy, a fabric unique to the web-spider, a small creature that feeds on energy. In addition to the heavy energy, there was a choking puff of dust floating in the air. Judging from the weathering of the surrounding broken stones, it has been uninhabited for a long time

After some exploration, they found that these small stone doors all led to the same place—another wide stone hall.

The same stone pillars, the same small holes. The difference is that this time the stone pillar is divided into four and stands in the center of the hall in an orderly manner, but the size is much smaller than the large stone pillar next door.

The surface of the column is inlaid with stone slabs the thickness of adult arms, and some intriguing words are engraved on them—learning, truth, and authority. However, the inscription on one of the stone tablets was so badly damaged that it was impossible to read the contents at all.

After watching it for a long time, I didn't see anything famous, and the team was in a predicament. The team members gathered in groups of three or five, around the stone pillars to discuss various possibilities intently.

Seeing this, Kevin whispered, "Go", and calmly took out an oiled paper bag from the space ring, "You are in a hurry to eat breakfast today, do you want to eat more?" ”

Du Yuhan thought seriously for a moment and nodded vigorously, "Eat." ”

Solve the hot scallion pancake in three or two, wipe it with his big hand, wipe his oily mouth casually, burp, and receive more than ten white eyes by the way.

These strange beams of light may not be known to others, but one person must know.

"Hey, what the hell is this?" Poked Vic, who was pretending to be dead next to him, Du Yuhan squatted down to look at him.

"Don't touch me, it's disgusting!" With a flick of his greasy palm, Vic took two steps back in disgust.

"If you don't say it, I'll put it in your face."

“…… This is the magic net energy. ”

Magic Net Energy? "What's that?"

Looking at the pair of slippery hands that were close at hand, Vic forcibly suppressed the urge to roll his eyes, "Magic Net Energy, Frian's Magic Net Node." ”

"Friyan?"

"Frian!"

"Frian."

Turning his head to look at the surprised Kevin, Du Yuhan looked confused, "Who is Free?" ”

After a moment of silence, Kevin glanced at the stone pillar with a complicated expression, the magic pattern seemed to sense the abundant life energy, and the frequency of the flickering was faster, "Frian is a master of the magic circle in ancient times, and legend has it that he was the first person to extract energy as a physical object. ”

"Legends?" Du Yuhan blinked. Influenced by Noyce, Kevin's attitude towards history is extremely rigorous, and what "legends" and "supposed" will basically not come from him.

Seeing through the other party's doubts, Kevin chuckled, "Because strictly speaking, I don't know if he's a human being or not." ”

Belch......

Du Yuhan was stunned when he heard this, what is a human being and what is not a human being?

In just 20 years, hundreds of books were published under the signature of Friyan, each of which had a profound impact on the academic world of the time.

From systematically analyzing the foundations of spells, to building various foundational treatises, and even energy stores that no one had yet cracked at the time. Until now, many theoretical analyses of magic scholarship have been extended from his writings.

However, no one has ever seen such a famous person.

Every time a book is published, it is a thick pile of research reports, which appear out of thin air on the desk of the president of the high-level professional alliance guild. The most hateful thing is that the defensive barrier inside the building has not been touched at all. The guild was annoyed by such a way that the other party was so self-inflicted, but there was nothing to do, and the only clue left was the "Frian" engraved on each piece of parchment.

"Of course, there was someone who was the subject of suspicion, because □□ of his writings were commentaries on model theory." After that, Kevin glanced at Vic intentionally or unintentionally, "But the person concerned has never responded positively." ”

"Cut, it's just a few books, what's all the fuss." Unexpectedly, Vic generously admitted, "I chased and asked all day long, and I was annoyed." ”

"Could it be that you're Frian?" Du Yuhan touched his chin.

"I'm not." Unexpectedly, he was denied by Vic in a tough mouth.

Du Yuhan tightened his sword eyebrows, "Then how do you admit that you wrote the book?" ”

Vic didn't overdo it, and didn't say a word.

Tsk, this stinky temper......

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if that person is you or not, just tell me how to crack this."
