Chapter 470: Overlap (1st Update)
A group of us followed Geraint to the highest tower of the castle, which was also the place where the Holy Grail was enshrined before, at that time, Brother Feng and I just wanted to come here, but due to the intruders, in the end, Geraint personally took the Holy Grail down to me, in order to let Wang Shuai obtain the power of the Divine Wood and repel the enemy.
The tower is also a bell tower, the whole space is not large, it is hexagonal, five sides of which are arched large window openings, one side is the same arched doorway, there is a large copper bell hanging in the center, during the ancient war, if the soldiers who are stationed here see the enemy attacking in the distance, they will ring such an alarm bell, so that the city can be prepared to resist the enemy, so as to prevent being attacked.
Geraint came to the bottom of the alarm bell, bent down and pressed one of the floor tiles, and after the floor tile "clicked" down, the highest step of the stone slab in front of the door also sank, and we came to the door, and found that there was a hidden grid on the edge of the platform, which had been blocked by that step before.
Inside the dark compartment, it looked empty, and in confusion, Geraint put his arm into it, as if he was groping for something, and after a while, a hint of joy appeared on his face, and after taking out his hand, he held a golden treasure chest with a beautifully carved surface, which looked very similar to the chest used by pirates to store treasures in fairy tales, but it was very small.
He presented the box to Hoji with both hands, and said, "My great new king, this is what the high priest gave to the first king Arthur. ”
After Koji took it, he looked at it again and again, and we gathered around him, carefully observing the beautiful patterns on it, but we didn't see the keyhole that could be inserted into it.
Besides, the concave and convex patterns above are also very incredible, and the content does not look like it comes from the Middle Ages at all, but more like modern human life, even the images of airplanes, rockets, astronauts, etc. are reflected.
Among them, there is a scene similar to modern warfare, behind the combat unit that looks like a tank, followed by several soldiers with guns and steel helmets, looking at the content of the entire surface of the box, it probably means that modern warfare has promoted the progress of human science and technology, and it is very popularized.
Haoji shook the box and felt that there was nothing in it, so he handed it to me and said, "Team leader, I think this is an empty box, and there is no cover, no gap, it feels like it is made in one piece, does it have nothing to do with the key?" ”
I also looked at the box for a long time, and there really was nothing on it that looked like it could be opened, so I fell into deep thought.
"Hey!" Brother Feng was impatient, "Wouldn't it be okay to just cut this thing with your war knife?" Or, you can use Koji's holy sword! ”
I glanced at him: "This is something left by the high priest, since she can make time flow slowly, it is also possible that she has applied some kind of spell to this thing, and violent dismantling is extremely likely to trigger serious consequences!" ”
"So what do you say?" He picked up his cigarette and smoked, "Why don't you take it back first and study it slowly?" ”
"Fairy of the Lake...... High Priest ...... Kundi Shenmu ......" Muzi muttered to himself, as if he was sorting out some thoughts.
"Yes, isn't this High Priest from the Land of the Fertile Wilderness!?" I looked at her, "In that case, will you two know each other!?" ”
Muzi raised his head, stretched out his hand to me, and said, "Show me something." ”
Without hesitation, I handed the box into Muzi's hand, he stared at it for a while, then used his fingers to test a few places on the surface of the box, and after taking a deep breath, he pressed down on a sun-like pattern on it, and with a little force, the pattern slid to the side!
The feeling is like playing a jigsaw puzzle, and the interesting thing is that the reliefs that we thought were fixed and could not be moved were actually pieces that could be moved and could be discharged in any combination, of course, provided that we could try to make room for wandering next to the plates that needed to be manipulated, otherwise the patterns would not be able to move if they were crowded together.
I saw Muzi carefully arranging those relief patterns in a regular manner, of course, I don't know what the basis for her arrangement is, in short, I don't know how to feel it.
Suddenly, with the crisp sound of the box "popping", a small black hole appeared on the upper edge of the front seat, round at the top and at the bottom, in the shape of a long strip, I quickly took out the golden key after looking at it, a pair of holes, the size is just right!
Muzi took the key, inserted it into the lock hole and turned! Above the original flawless surface of the box, a thin slit suddenly appeared, so that the obvious lid and the box body were formed, after the lid was opened, there was only a rag inside, looking at the texture, it was a very rough linen, yellow-brown, only the size of a palm after taking it out and spreading it out, and there were only a few strange black words written on it.
For the strange words, Wang Shuai is naturally the most interested, his eyes are closed and opened, his pupils emit white light, and the eyes of the martial god are open!
Wang Shuai stared at the text on the cloth, frowned, and muttered: "This is the text of the Fertile Country, which means ...... 'coincide'......?" ”
"Coincide!?" I looked confused, "After doing it for a long time, you got these two words?" You read that right? ”
"There can be no mistake, the meaning of this word is 'coincidence'." Wang Shuai replied in the affirmative.
"Ah, I see!" Like a student, Koji raised his hand and said, "When the High Priest said the coincidence, he actually meant that the two points of time coincided between ancient and modern, which is why the battle between the modern Templars and the ancient Knights of the Round Table here just now, the High Priest is prophesying what will happen today!" ”
"Hmm......" I nodded, "does sound like a bit of a point......
"No, she doesn't have the ability to predict." Muzi said suddenly, "So I won't guess what happened today." ”
"You...... How do you know? I asked suspiciously.
"Because there is only one person in the Land of Fertile Fields who can make a secret box out of flowing metal." Muzi said unhurriedly, "That's the guardian of the Sage Altar - Elise." ”
"You know her well?"
"I know everybody."
"That's just as well."
Speaking of which, I can't help but think of what happened in the past in the Land of Fertile Fields, and the many large candid photos hanging in that strange building show that Muzi is not only in the Land of Fertile Fields, but also knows the details of everyone in the real world.
Then I saw the look of surprise on Geraint's face, and he paused and said, "Elise is indeed the name of the High Priest, but she doesn't seem to want others to know this, so the first king ordered that no one should reveal the true name of the High Priest, and those who violate the order will be killed." ”
A famous king would give such an order for a priestess, could it be that they have a leg? I can't help but gossip about it......
