Chapter 225: The Black Stone and the Ancient Book
readx;? Allen's blood flowed on the surface of the immortal firebird's egg, and the blood suddenly turned into a golden point of light and merged into the shell of the seal. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the dark void that the torches could not illuminate, a crimson light suddenly appeared, at first very small, like a little crystal starlight in the distant night sky, from far to near, the number of light points increased, quickly covering all the ground around Allen, and then the light points began to spread, forming light, and closer and closer, more and more, brighter and brighter, winding along the ground, and finally gathered to the location of the strange stones, and climbed up along the surface of the strange stones, as if bright red veins tightly surrounded the surface of the strange stones, and the red light still continued to come from afar, as if it was constantly transporting fresh blood。
"Oh!"
Allan** With a sound, he opened his eyes with difficulty, and then he was stunned by the strange scene on the ground below him, a large amount of red light gathered from all directions, directly under his body, and at this time, the immortal firebird eggs around him were like hearts, swelling and shrinking, all these rays seemed to be absorbed by this pulsation, and the speed of transmission of the red light around him gradually accelerated, and then the pitch-black void where Alan was gradually disappeared, and a stone chamber with a radius of dozens of steps gradually appeared under the reflection of the light。
Allen's eyes widened, and his astonished gaze shifted to the lines that transmitted red light, and a huge magic array composed entirely of red lines and runes appeared in front of him, covering almost the entire floor of the stone chamber.
Soon, Alan confirmed that this was a huge fire-based magic array, and the two fire-based magic crystals on the altar were able to extract the fire-based magic energy in the underground magma to replenish energy, and at this time, the sealed immortal firebird eggs in the shape of strange stones were officially absorbing fire-based magic energy with the help of this magic array.
A hearty sigh sounded in the depths of Allen's mind, the voice was majestic and simple, as if it had been transmitted across hundreds of millions of years of time and space, but the sigh did not stop, and the other one was completely different, but the same majestic voice was like coming from the depths of hell, full of irritability, anger and killing intent, as if an ancient giant beast had seen an enemy who did not share the sky, the voice was as loud as a dragon shouting in his ears, making Allen's eyes blacken for a while, and he almost fell to his knees on the spot.
Alan suddenly felt a crisis of unprecedented magnitude looming over him.
"It can't be allowed to continue to absorb fire-based magic elements, otherwise, once it breaks through the seal, the consequences will be many times more serious than those undead creatures, and it will be a disaster of destruction for the entire expedition. ”
Alan didn't care about anything else, and picked up the undead firebird eggs from the ground and put them back in his bag. As soon as the firebird eggs were out of the ground, the bright lines on the ground immediately disappeared, and the screams full of murderous intent echoing in my mind also disappeared at the same time, leaving only a faint red trace, which could not be found at all under the light of the fire, if you did not look closely.
Eren calmed down his flustered mood for a moment, and then looked around the entire stone chamber, and sure enough, as he expected, this stone chamber was in the rock below the altar, because in the middle of the stone chamber there were two crystal pillars sticking straight down from the roof, and the roots were connected to the magic array.
However, at this time, the color of the magic crystal pillar has dimmed, and the halo on the surface has disappeared, obviously because the undead firebird eggs use the energy of the fire system to gather the magic position energy has also had an impact on the energy field of the crystal pillar, so that the magic gathering array cannot continue to replenish the loss of the crystal pillar's energy. According to Allen's previous guess, this fluctuating halo may be the source of activating the undead, so at this time, the effect of the halo is lost, and the threat of the undead should also be lifted.
Alan breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the undead firebird will also do good deeds, otherwise when he goes out, he doesn't know if the other companions will be able to withstand the attack of the undead, but then other questions also come to his mind.
How did you get here, and why couldn't you find a margin in the stone chamber just now, and didn't even touch the two crystal pillars?
It seems to have something to do with the halo on the crystal pillar, that halo can not only control the undead, but also has a strong interference with their own brains, and even directly cause brain injury when excited, and the interference with the brain will inevitably affect mental power.
Now that the halo was gone, and everything was back to normal, Eren tried to chant the magic spell again, and a lighting spell immediately appeared in the stone chamber, illuminating the room to the bril.
It seems that his guess should be correct, and he will not be able to perform magic here until the halo disappears.
Between the two crystal pillars is a stone platform on which something is placed that attracts Allen's attention.
Alan walked up to the stone platform and was greeted by three objects, from left to right, a black stone the size of a palm, an ancient book, and a green cane less than two feet long.
Although Alan couldn't see the origin and value of these three things, he knew that it was definitely not easy to hide something here, but he didn't have time to study too much for him now, so he was going to receive it in his bag first and go back to study it.
"Smack!"
Alan reached out to take the palm-sized black stone, but he didn't expect that the stone was actually very heavy, he grabbed it casually and didn't hold it, and the stone fell back onto the stone platform, making a sound of gold and stone clashing.
"It's not ordinary. ”
Eren didn't drink wine in vain with Master Thorne in Iron Pine Town, and he did learn a lot of important knowledge about blacksmithing, one of which is that the rarer the metal element, the heavier it is. So the black stone made Alan understand that it might be a rare metal, but he knew very little about rare metals and could not confirm the ore's material. However, you can take it back to Master Jones, he will definitely know the material of the strange stone.
Alan picked up the stone again, learning the lesson he had just learned, and this time Alan was very hard and didn't let the stone slip down again. He put the stone in front of his eyes and looked at it a few times, and from the outside, it was an irregular ore, charred black, as if it had been burned by flames, and the surface was covered with tiny holes, but there was nothing unusual about it.
"I hope he's a superb alchemy material!"
Alan took the stone into his backpack and picked up the book.
This is an animal skin scroll, you can feel the unique texture of animal skin at the beginning, but this is definitely not an ordinary animal skin scroll, it can survive hundreds of years without decay, and the text and illustrations in the book do not know what dye is used, and the murals on the wall, after hundreds of years of erosion, it is still as bright as ever.
