The Temple of All Souls, the Castle of the Ten Heroes, and the Great Library are some of the most iconic buildings in the Eye of Reye. The Temple of All Souls, where Duqi is currently located, is located at the top of a hill in the central area of the Eye of Leyer, and from here, one needs to walk down a few hundred steps, walk a few hundred meters west along the street, and then go up to another peak, where the Great Library is located.

The buildings of the Upper Town are of great importance to the Roland people, so the area is not inhabited on a regular basis, and there are hardly any buildings except for some roads that are necessary for traffic.

The vast expanse of green space and woods provided excellent cover for Duqi, so he was not in a hurry to go to the large library, but carefully searched along the way, trying to figure out the configuration of the surrounding monsters. He was very worried that if there was another negative metamorphosis, there would be no chance of resurrection.

Presumably because the upper town is almost uninhabited, it is not the main area for monster attacks, and only a small number of jailers are gathered. Even, Du Qi took the opportunity to hunt and kill a few lonely jailers, successfully collected several monster soul fragments, and fused them into a complete soul.

"Soul crystallization: the weak soul will be broken after death and return to the embrace of the world; Powerful souls enter the realm of death to be judged by the ancient Holy Spirit. With the help of some powerful force, you will bring together the weak soul and sacrifice it to the great Grim Reaper. You may be appreciated by the Grim Reaper for this, but this is a means of upsetting the balance, and the world will not applaud you. ”

It's a somewhat disturbing introduction, and Dozzie even worries that the Grim Reaper's gaze isn't the only punishment after death. Holy Spirit, balance, world, many unfamiliar words appear in this passage. Duzi did not know what this statement actually meant, and could only guess according to modern science. He knew that the energy in a complete cycle system was constant, and after offering his soul to death, that part of the energy might be detached from the original system. That is, the balance of the system is disrupted as a result.

However, something has happened, even if he guesses in his heart, for the sake of his own life, Du Qi has to continue to do it. The only thing he can do is to make up his mind to die as few times as possible.

After a lot of delays on the road, Du Qi finally arrived at the big library.

It was a huge building on a grand scale, not as elaborate and ornate as the temple, but far larger than it. From the outside alone, the building is seven or eight storeys tall and covers an area of several thousand square meters. It may not seem like much to a modern person, but it was the first time in the world that Dozi had seen a building of this scale.

Walking into the big library, the internal situation made Du Qi feel a little distressed when he saw it. It was clearly a catastrophe, with countless broken wooden bookshelves toppling to the ground, and a staggering collection of books burned to the ground, making it almost impossible to find a complete book on the ground. He could imagine how magnificent it used to be, but now, the precious knowledge left by the ancients has dissipated.

With a constant sigh in his heart, Du Qi climbed several floors in a row, but all he saw was a mess. Continue upwards until he reached the top floor, and in the midst of the chaos, he saw several walls made of steel. After a few circles around the iron wall, Du Qi estimated that there should be hundreds of square meters of space inside, and the items left by the ancestors mentioned by Di Ye were probably preserved in it. But what bothered him was that there were not even gates built on top of these iron walls.

"These iron walls are very thick......," he tapped with his hand, and a deep, muffled voice came back from the steel door, "it is impossible to open them by brute force, and it seems that they do hold very precious things inside." ”

Du Qi patiently continued to explore, but still did not find any mechanism. "Could it be...... Is this voice-activated here? His face was almost pressed against the iron wall, "Ahem...... Open the door? I am an oracle...... God's favor? Forehead...... I'm here to save the Rolands, how about saving face? ”

Du Qi felt a little stupid, and wanted to return to the temple to ask the priest, but he felt that since the other party didn't say it explicitly, he probably ran back with the idea of testing himself, which was really a bit embarrassing.

"Huh?" Dozi stumbled upon some carved small characters in the corner. "These ...... Looks like a rune? Is it necessary to rely on runes to open this place? He looked at it carefully for a long time, and the complex patterns engraved there were obviously a combination of many different runes, even more complex than the lines on his hands, which made people scratch their heads.

"Do I have to parse these runes to open this door? This can't be, I'm just a half-person who knows two kinds of runes, and if that's the case, the priest won't let me come here in vain...... Wait......" Duzi suddenly remembered what Di Ye had said, "I remember...... He said that they relied on the rune stones left behind by their ancestors to manipulate the rune circle, thus raising a protective barrier to isolate the monsters from the temple. In other words, the rune circle that has been carved out is complete, and the user does not need to understand it when using it? That is, as long as it is activated. ”

The thought lifted Duqi's spirits, and he still clearly remembered how he felt when he used the runes, and the transparent energy that emerged from his body was perhaps the key to solving the problem.

Just do it, Du Qi closed his eyes, and relied on his memory to find the source of those energies. "I remember...... It's above the abdomen, a little below the heart......" He collected his mind, constantly recalling how he felt when he used the runes.

"Found it!"

Du Qi's right palm was upward, and although it looked empty, he could clearly feel that a strange energy was converging above his palm. He reached out his right hand and pressed his palm against the iron wall.

He saw a strange scene, as if he suddenly had the ability to see, and through the thick iron wall, he could see some large and small pipes inside. These pipes are connected to each other and eventually lead to a translucent glass sphere in the center. "Does that mean I'm going to manipulate the energy through these pipes and send it to the most central container?" He knew that he wasn't really able to see through, and that the scene in front of him was just projected into his consciousness.

The process of transporting energy was more difficult than Duzi had imagined, as he had to maneuver the erratic energy through the pipes that were constantly changing shapes and thicknesses, and making sure that it did not escape during this time. In just a few moments, he was already sweating profusely. Soon he couldn't hold on and failed.

Such attempts were made seven or eight times, and it took almost half a day for the panting Duqi to finally complete the task. With a muffled sound, the iron wall in front of him opened a crack two or three people wide. Immediately afterwards, several lamps with unknown principles lit up inside, illuminating the dark space.

"Ahem...... Cough...... My God......" Duqi hurriedly raised his hand to cover his nose, his brows furrowed almost together. He didn't know how long it had been since it had been opened, but it was certain that the stench was a defensive device comparable to that of an iron wall.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the stench had dissipated a little, and Du Qi covered his nose with a water-soaked towel, and forced his discomfort into the dusty storage room.

As he guessed, the space protected by the iron wall was about 100 square meters in size, and in addition to some dilapidated wooden shelves, there were hundreds of old items of all kinds stacked.

It was only then that the mission he had received regarding the prophecy changed, as if the radar interface had reappeared, guiding Dozi to find what he needed.

Glance at random over the rows of wooden shelves, on which were visited objects that seemed to be related to the sacrifice of the gods, which had long since erased their original ornate appearance and turned into rags that were almost untouchable. Duqi's footsteps stopped at a wooden frame in the middle, and a dozen scrolls were placed in the center.

The scrolls were also made of unknown materials, and although they were already covered in dust, they were still intact. Du Qi picked up a few pairs and read them, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he could understand why these prophecies were not valued by the Roland people. Nearly every one of these scrolls predicts a different future, and the content is nothing more than some kind of catastrophe that will lead the world to its end.

Among them, the one that is closest to the facts that have happened so far is the pair in the hands of Du Qi.

"Black chasms, dark monsters, lead the world to extinction; Golden rifts, fearless warriors, where does the future hold? ”

The prophecy is indeed very similar to what happened in reality, but these two short lines, and even left a big question mark at the end, made Du Qi run back and forth, and even died tragically at the feet of the abnormal negative mystery. This kind of harvest is somewhat difficult for him to accept.

Until the task changed again, Du Qi's eyes widened, and the corners of his mouth grinned slightly.

"Original...... This is the purpose of this mission. ”
