966 Ancient Seekers
At the same time as the prompt of the boss kill pops up, various rewards are also instantly "arrived".
In addition to inconsequential rewards such as gold coins, Lin Chi directly opened the skill bar to check the new skills he had obtained:
Ancient Language Talent (Level 1):
Passive skills.
You can now decipher some of the ancient languages.
"Esoteric knowledge awaits you, traveler."
This boss fight does not drop any equipment, but provides a skill. Seeing the introduction of this skill, Lin Chi quickly left the execution ground and came to the oil lamp on the side of the road.
He opened his backpack and pulled out the Crimson Book, ignoring Moria's quizzing gaze, and began to try to decipher the ancient book written in mysterious language.
The ancient text on the previous pages is still undecipherable. But when Lin Chi turned to the fifth page, his newly acquired talent for ancient language finally came into play, and the words on the page became understandable and presented in front of Lin Chi's eyes:
"When the world was born, man came here. They have nothing, their hearts are filled with hatred, hatred turns into anger, anger begets war, they fight all day long, they are devastated but unable to die, they fall into endless despair and pain. ”
"The terrible Creator has abandoned believers and left them to fend for themselves. People collapsed one after another, falling into madness in the void. Only the most strong-willed brave remained, hiding in the corners of the world, casting an eternal curse on the Creator. ”
Except for this part, the other texts are still illegible, and because the content is too small, Lin Chi is currently unable to determine what the record in the Crimson Book is talking about.
- This creator may refer to the thirteen "creators" in the game, or something else. If you want to understand the content of this book, you can only continue to improve the skill of "Ancient Language Talent".
Luckily, this book is an epic item that can be taken out of the game, and even if you can't finish it now, you will have a chance to continue reading it later.
"Can you read it?" Molya leaned over curiously and looked at the ancient words on the book.
"I don't understand."
Lin Chi said as he put the Crimson Book in his backpack and walked towards the tall walls of Sodom City.
……
The man in a gray robe sat upright on a wooden chair in the study, his slender fingers running across the book cover. The eyes behind the lenses of the round-rimmed glasses are fixed on the "air" above the table.
Although he is a character in the game "War Paradise", if you just look at his appearance, this person has nothing to do with the warrior, and he is completely an elegant scholar.
The area of his private house has also been converted into a small library, however, due to the fact that there are not many books in the game that have reached the epic level, the library is still basically empty, with only a few books, leaning alone on the shelves.
The man silently picked up the ancient book on his desk, opened the blue cover, and stared at the contents of the first page.
The words like earthworms appeared in front of him, and they were not sinicized by the translation system, making him completely unreadable.
He had picked up the book from the "Remnant of the Abyss" map, but had been unable to decipher it, and since then, he has been lining up several times to try to find a way to decipher the book, but to no avail.
As a professional in the real world, he once tried to decipher this text on his own, but in the end he failed. Even if there is more "time" in an IMA game than in the real world, it is too difficult to translate unknown words without a reference at all.
But he also knew that in ancient maps, it might be possible to find the skills to decipher such words, or find someone who could decipher ancient books. Sooner or later, I will decipher these difficult ancient books in the game and figure out what they are in.
- In the eyes of ordinary players, their efforts may be ridiculous.
However, as an avid story lover, he focuses on the PVE part of any game, and in order to understand the background of the in-game story, it is also one of his goals to interpret the "unknown books" in the game.
"Ha ......"
He smiled self-deprecatingly, put down the ancient book in his hand, stood up and stretched.
The mobile phone in his pocket that he used to communicate with his friends in the game began to vibrate, and he took out his mobile phone, and dozens of messages immediately popped up, densely occupying a large area of sight:
"Do you want to play today? It's up to you. ”
"Can the big guy take me to an achievement?"
"Well, I want to join the group ...... too"
"I just bought an expansion pack retinue, and I promise not to cheat!"
Looking at the messages sent by the other players, he casually closed the dialogue bar, not answering anyone's interest at all, just standing next to the bookshelf and putting the ancient book in his hand back on the shelf.
Now that your teammates have sent a message, it's time to continue playing as a team. But until then......
He casually opened the BOSS kill record page in the game, skillfully clicked on the list of bosses in the "Remnant of the Abyss" map, and then, suddenly, his eyes widened slightly:
"This boss has been passed?"
Noticing that the kill record had appeared behind the name of "Old Sodom", the smile on his face froze.
- This boss battle that belongs to the category of "hidden boss" was discovered by accident. It seems that only after completing certain special conditions in the game will you be teleported to the old city of Sodom and enter this battle.
In his opinion, this boss battle is likely to be related to the hidden plot in the game, which should also be helpful for deciphering ancient books.
However, even though he has entered this boss battle twice, he still ends up dying.
The boss battle in Old Sodom City is really a bit too difficult. Even if you are well prepared and trigger the battle after exchanging a large number of Divine Souls for attribute values, you still don't see any hope of passing the level.
Pillars of fire falling from the sky and fallen angels all over the city form a terrifying web of death. Aside from knowing that the NPCs in the city seem to believe in a god named "God of Nature", he has not been able to find any clues during his two defeats.
For a long time, this boss has been in a state of no one to kill, let alone a strategy, most people have never even seen it, and they don't even know the existence of this boss battle.
But...... It's different now.
Since someone has completed the first kill, that is to say, the secrets hidden in that boss battle, as well as the "hidden plot" after the battle, may have been known by the player who completed the first kill.
If that's the case, the "hidden plot" I've been chasing may finally come to an end......
"Hurry up, I've been waiting for you for a long time. How about teaming up tonight? "A message came.
"I'll be there shortly."
The elegant "scholar" turned to leave his study and gently closed the door.
In the dark study, the cover of the ancient book emits a blue light, like the deep sea.
