Chapter 659: The Mysterious Ancient Book (5)

There is no doubt that in this confrontation between knowledge and violence, the old professor relied on his rich life experience to snatch the dominance of the survivors from the bald man.

Because there was no one in the restaurant who could read the contents of the ancient parchment book, let alone what was written in it, except for him and Mansha.

But just as these ordinary people gathered to study how to get out of the current dangerous situation, Zhang Cheng, who was far away in Los Angeles, had already arrived at the scene of the incident, frowning and looking around at the fast-food restaurant that had disappeared into thin air, ignoring the busy police and reporters.

It took about ten minutes or so before he touched his chin and muttered to himself, "Interesting! No wonder that the book has gone through multiple masters in the underground world, and no one has been able to find out the mystery in it, it turns out that it will only react to ordinary people, and then open a directional portal to transfer all the nearby life forms and buildings away." But the question at the moment is, how can I find the coordinates of the location of the directional teleportation?"

Obviously, giving away that ancient book was a small attempt on his part.

Because I can feel an extremely powerful power from the ancient books, but I don't know why it can't be activated, as if I have been in some kind of deep sleep, and I have to be awakened by certain circumstances.

As with most high-level magic items, this is a trigger set by the maker, and if you don't know how to activate it, the book is just a normal book, but once activated, it acts as a base station and key.

Even with Zhang Cheng's current knowledge and magical power, he couldn't track down where the entire restaurant was teleported, and there was no good way to do it except wait patiently.

You know, he had expected a similar situation for a long time, so he gave the girl a note with a phone number.

If the other party tries to make this call, the location spell hidden in the note will be activated instantly, and he will be able to open a stable portal to the past.

Of course, if the other party didn't remember to call until he died, then he would have to give up on tracking down the secret behind the book.

......

At the same time, Professor Craig, who was far away in the world of flames and magma, had just barely finished reading the entire book in more than three hours, and said to the survivors sitting around him with a solemn expression: "Ladies and gentlemen, the place where we are currently is not actually the earth, but a place similar to a parallel space.

According to the primitive dualist religions born in Central Asia and the Middle East, the world was born out of an eternal struggle between two opposing gods, good and evil, light and dark.

In their struggle, including the earth, the mineral veins, the animals and plants, and the human beings, appeared one by one.

But the interesting thing is that due to the long battle, some of the gods who symbolize light, goodness, and fire gradually merge with the gods that symbolize darkness and evil, and some spirit-like creatures are born, who do not have flesh and blood, but appear to the world in the form of elements.

To prevent these grumpy creatures from roaming around and causing damage, the God of Light built a prison to house the most dangerous spirits. Icardet is one of them.

The *** cult that was born later absorbed the tales of these folklore and renamed it Ifrit. ”

"So we're now trapped in a prison made by the gods? The monsters out there that exude amazing heat are the fire spirits? The biggest one is Ikalet, or Evrite? What about God and Jesus Christ? Doesn't the Bible say that God is the creator of all things on earth?" The waitress stared wide-eyed with a look of disbelief on her face.

You must know that with the spread of monotheistic religions, including Christianity and Christianity born from primitive Judaism, it has directly led to the extinction of many ancient primitive religions, so that many people do not understand what those real religious ideas and ideologies are going on in ancient times, let alone understand them in depth.

The reason is simple, monotheism promotes an extreme idea, such as that there is only one God, that is, the Almighty Creator, and that there is no room for moderation in everything that is right or wrong.

In such a humanistic and social environment, people either become irrational, completely blindly obey the so-called "canon", and regard it as a yardstick that binds everyone's behavioral norms and moral standards, no matter how backward the provisions recorded in it are, how cruel the criminal law is, the most typical example is the countries of the Middle East and Central Asia.

On the other hand, there are European and American countries that have Christian ideas as the cornerstone of their societies.

Because they have experienced the great geographical discoveries of the Age of Discovery, the emancipation of the mind in the Age of Enlightenment, and the progress of the productive forces of the modern industrial revolution, they are relatively open in concept, but they still have the strong exclusivism of monotheism in their bones.

For example, any country that does not follow the one-person-one-vote system of elections in the Western world will be beaten into a dictatorship with a stick, and any region that does not follow the universal values and moral standards of the West will be regarded as backward, ignorant, and cruel.

After all, the education, environment, and media propaganda they received from childhood were all about the strong exclusivity of Christianity, especially since even in the United States in the 21st century, when the supreme leader and president take the oath of office, they still have to press their hands on the Bible and take an oath.

As a professor of archaeology, Craig is undoubtedly well aware of the contempt and rejection of other religions by most Americans, and sighs helplessly and explains: "I'm sorry, I'm not a theologian, I can't answer your question, I can only tell you what is written in this book." In addition, the giant with magma pouring out of his body is not Ikalet, the real Ikalet should look like a demon on the outside, with a pair of pointed horns on his head, and his hands and feet are in the form of animal claws. ”

"Damn! Don't talk nonsense! I don't care about the bullshit God of Light, God, Jesus Christ, I just want to know how to get back to Los Angeles. The bald man interrupted impatiently.

"We need to find something! a key, to be exact! Well, the book has already depicted what it looks like and where it is. If I'm not mistaken, it's almost the huge crater in the distance. The old professor looked up and looked at the massive volcano that was not only erupting hot magma a few kilometers away.

"Shet!, what do you mean...... We're going to have to rush out, oh my god, are you crazy, those flaming monsters out there are going to roast us to charred corpses!" exclaimed another white man who looked to be in his early twenties.

"Don't worry, remember the symbols carved on the walls outside, as long as you write on your clothes and skin with a pen that doesn't fade, the Fire Spirits won't attack us. Of course, if you are willing to stay here until you are starved to death of hunger and thirst without food and water, then I will say nothing......"

"Fake! Don't talk nonsense! Listen to the professor! Prepare more water! Leave in half an hour!" the bald man raised his revolver and shouted a threat.
