Chapter 238
Elletair and Ver found the mage's bones and the wand he was holding, and although Islay said that it was a wand that could lead people to what they were thinking, Ver saw the words "Teleport the wand" in his famine system.
By reading the notes the mage had left here, Eltail found the mage's codex, but exclaimed as she flipped through it.
"It can't be!"
"What's wrong?" Weir hurriedly asked.
"This ...... How come there is nothing on this?! Eletair flipped through the codex, but there was not a word on it...... Not even, there is not a single line.
The pages of blank paper made Elletel's heart half cold.
"Could it be that you got it wrong?"
"It's impossible to get it wrong...... That's what it's about, and who would put a wrong thing in such a hidden place? ”
"You see, on the cover of this note, there is the same imprint as on the record." Alley closed the Codex and handed it to Veel, pointing his finger to a corner of the surface. "Look, this is it."
At the place of Elletair's finger, there is a sacred tree-like pattern carved into the writing, slender branches and plump trunks, so small but so delicate, showing the delicate skill of the carver.
"The Lines of the Sacred Tree." When Wiel saw the pattern, he thought to himself, "It's exactly the same as the one on the plank of the cubicle." ”
"What if...... Judging from this carving alone, it must be very difficult for someone who can carve this pattern. Ver groaned and said to Elletaire.
"That's what I thought, no, it doesn't matter...... The key is...... There's nothing in it. As he spoke, Elettel gently folded the book in an arc and quickly flipped through the original codex. No...... No...... There is not a single text on it. ”
There was a look of loss in Elletair's eyes. "I took a look at the books on the shelves outside just now, and they are all extremely old books, and if I have time, I may be able to decipher a lot of useful things from them."
"But the words in those books are too old...... A lot of things are obscure and even impossible to decipher. Moreover, the time spent is not something that can be completed in a day or two. Eli's tone was slightly anxious.
"The reason why I am looking for this mage's codex is because he has been studying those ancient texts for a long time...... The information recorded above should be the information he put together. ”
As he spoke, after reconfirming that there was no text in the note in his hand, he threw the note in his hand to the side, and Weir caught it.
"Maybe we're missing something." There is no printing in this world, Wei Er does not believe that there will be a 'same' notebook, and the material and texture are so special, at first Wei Er did not feel it, but when this codex was held in his hand, Wei Er felt that the material of this notebook was obviously Moon Rock.
"Maybe to see the content inside, what other means are needed?" Ver straightened the codex over and looked at it slowly. Vere found that although there was no text or anything like that on each page, Vere felt that there was a subtle difference on each page, but he didn't find out where it was for a while.
Elitaire churned her chin and brow, pacing slowly on the ground with a slightly restless look. "Let me think about it...... What else is missing, what is recorded in the books...... Damn! Why does the Codex have no words? ”
Will flipped the not-so-thick notebook from beginning to end, "You say...... Could this thing be missing one, huh...... What switch key or something? ”
"And why are you so sure this is the man's retreat? I think it's a long time ago, but I'm afraid it's just a room in the ruins. ”
"No, Vere, because the things here, the tables and bookshelves here, are all things from that era, and they don't fit in with the rooms of this ruin."
"Out of place? …… I don't see that. Weir shook his head.
"And that wand can't be wrong."
"I think that wand is outrageously wrong, okay?" Although Ver secretly complained in his heart, he nodded, looked at Elletair's expression, and felt that in Elletaire's point of view, this wand was indeed the wand in the record.
"We'll hold this codex first, and if we find a way to decipher the information on it later, you'll be able to find out if there's anything written here." Ver held the codex as a fan and swung it in front of him. "We need to find an exit here now, and we can't get out of that place."
"Huh?" Ver was stunned for a moment, as if he had discovered something.
Turning the side of the book to himself, "Look here. What kind of texture does it look like...... I see, it was engraved directly on it. ”
"What?" Elletair hurried over, "What did you find?" Is there a word that appears? ”
"Look here, the side of this book." Wiel pointed to the side of the codex, and when many of the pages were stacked on top of each other, a shallow line appeared.
No wonder Veil himself had a strange feeling when he looked at each page just now, it turned out that there was one or several small holes next to each page.
Each page has a different indentation, and when the Codex is closed, a pattern of indentations is formed.
First, the lines are too shallow, and if you don't look carefully, it's easy to ignore, and the codex itself is not very thick, and a slight flip will make the lines disappear, so that Vere didn't notice the existence of this texture for a while.
Veil looked at the pattern and felt familiar.
"This, it's a memory!" Elletair looked at the pattern carefully, "It's a memory pattern!" It turns out that this mage's codex is not written down, but remembered! ”
Eltail took the codex from Wiel's hand and cried out excitedly. "Thank you, Vere, we were right!"
"Congratulations." Vere smiled and said, "I hope this codex has what you want to know." ”
After Eletel was happy, he looked at Vere with some curiosity, "Wiel, you ...... Aren't you curious about what's in it? ”
"Curious." "But I'm a man of principle," said Will, "and we agreed before we came, that I would help you with the Codex, and that you would help me find someone." …… Of course, if you want me to see it, I don't mind at all. ”
Eltail chuckled, "You're a strange man, Ver. ”
"There's some mystery and it's not a bad thing." "My biggest concern right now is how we should get out. ”
"It's not difficult." Elletair shook the codex in his hand, "There should be a way out of this." ”
"Oh? Do you really want to show me? Don't tempt me. Ver said, and then she looked silently at Elletelle, who was approaching her, her nose only two centimeters from her.
A pair of eyes looked at themselves, in the dim light, it seemed a little ambiguous.
"If I tempt you...... Can you take it? Elettair's lips lifted slightly.
"You can try." Wiel's eyes moved from her nose to her eyes, to her lips, and finally, calmly focused on her eyes.
"You're such a strange man, Vere." Elletaire's eyes were still clear and bright.
Ver reached out to wipe the dust off Elettelle's face, but was grabbed by the female swordsman's hand. "Isn't it weird? I just want to wipe the dust off your face. ”
Elletair was slightly stunned, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he straightened up.
"Let's take a look at this codex." Eletair picked up the Codex, "That's how the Runes of Remembrance should be used......," he said, pulling out some magic dust from the small bag around his waist.
Turning the book to his side and sprinkling magic dust on it, the lines on the original codex gradually lit up, and the rune engraved on the side of the book emitted a white glow.
The pages of the Codex were naturally opened, and all the tiny lines that lit up gathered together, forming the appearance of a figure on the top of the Codex.
The voice came from the blurry figure.
