Chapter 422: Fragments

After some dramatic fighting, Diana finally stopped, and her eyes returned to clarity. She looked around for a moment, as if remembering what had just happened, and regretfully apologized to Eric.

"I'm sorry, I just ...... Didn't realize it. She said, "Are you alright?" ”

"It's finally fine." Eric breathed a sigh of relief, "What the hell just happened?" ”

Diana said, "It's a very old spell to protect what is hidden here, similar to the one in the New York Museum before. In the New York Museum, the spell I triggered when I took the piece made the stone soldiers guarding it come alive and hinder me; Here, the fog that I triggered when I took the pieces had the effect of distracting and disjudgment. When I lived on Paradise Island as a child, I seemed to have heard of a similar spell, an ancient spell that hallucinates and kills comrades, and only with the help of foreign objects can I regain the correct ability to discriminate. Legend has it that even the unprepared Protoss will fall for its way if they are not careful. ”

Eric then understood. Diana had just recovered from seeing her image in the mirror, and the reason why she didn't get hit was because he saw Diana through the monitor of the armor helmet at the beginning, and it was also with the help of foreign objects, so the purple mist had no effect on him.

"That seems to be the fulfillment of the legend now." Eric said, "So what the occultist made your collection look extraordinary. ”

He didn't need to be reminded that Diana had already noticed. The two pieces she'd collected so far had been guarded by powerful spells, and while it wasn't clear what they were used for, it was enough to tell that they came from something extraordinary. Diana became more and more suspicious, but unfortunately now she had no choice but to continue to act according to Faust's arrangement.

The two didn't continue the conversation, and returned to the museum side by side. When they came out of the fight, Diana left the piece and didn't bring it out, and now they had to go back and look for it.

But when they walked through the holes in the walls of the museum and returned to the pavilion, all that was left was the floor of the pavilion. And between the shattered glass, the strangely shaped stone was gone.

There was only one explanation—someone had already taken the opportunity to come over and pick up the piece while they were pestering outside.

Diana pulled out the dial again, only to see that the hands were firmly pointing in a certain direction. The two followed the direction of the pointer and flew for only a few moments before they reached the outside of Chicago.

It looked like either the dial had pointed them to their next target, or the guy who had stolen the piece had left the city at an alarming rate in such a fraction of a moment.

After a little deliberation, the two decided to continue following the dial's instructions. After all, they had limited time and had to return to Paradise Island within twenty-four hours. And if another force secretly collects the same thing, they are likely to meet again in the process of collecting it, so don't be too anxious.

Paradise Island.

It was originally a beautiful island isolated from the rest of the world and full of spring all year round, where the Amazonian women, who were protected by the gods of Olympus, lived here all year round, and the island was full of life.

Now, however, the forest is filled with the smell of death, and the whole island has become dead.

There are many hidden secrets on the island, many of which are closely related to some ancient Greek mythology. Many of them are dangerous secrets that the Amazon Queen has carefully concealed, and may even greatly affect the fate of the entire world.

Like the one Faust found now.

This is in a huge cave on the island, even if Diana, who was born and raised on Paradise Island, never knew there was such a cave here. Entering through the entrance of the cave and walking along the winding passage for less than two miles, there is a huge open cavern inside. In the deepest part of the room, there was a heavy iron door about seven or eight people high, and the door was wrapped with several circles of heavy iron chains, and the crimson door looked like coagulated blood and the color of hell, which looked hideous and terrifying.

Felix Faust sat cross-legged in front of the door, his body slightly off the ground, suspended in the air, his eyes closed as if in meditation.

Without warning, the flames appeared in front of him, drawing a circle in the air like life. The flaming face appeared before him again, and said in a low voice: "Faust! Aren't you supposed to be helping me find the key? What to do here!? ”

As he spoke, rising flames spread from the face, enveloping Faust in the center. Faust's wrinkled face under his hood was so clearly illuminated that it was a little terrifying.

In the face of suffocating oppression, Faust was expressionless and said lightly: "Don't worry, your problem is now being solved." I asked Princess Diana of Paradise Island to look for it for me, and she should be back here within twenty-four hours, and we'll just have to wait here. ”

"Hippolyta's daughter?" The mysterious man in the flames changed his tone and seemed to be slightly interested, "It would be very interesting if she could bring the key and help me out of trouble." But you also have to know that I can't tolerate failure. If you miss......"

"My soul will be destroyed, and I know what will happen to me." Faust became impatient and said, "Don't worry, nothing will go wrong." Now you just have to wait, the time limit is almost up. ”

The mysterious figure snorted and stopped talking. The flames immediately dissipated, and silence returned to the cave.

Meanwhile.

After leaving Chicago, Eric and Diana followed the guidance of the hands on the dial to Los Angeles, where they flew all the way to a mansion before stopping. I saw that there were a lot of luxury cars parked around this house, and there was an endless stream of distinguished guests in front of the door, which looked like they were not small.

"Martin Nathaniel." After comparing and investigating with the help of the Zhenglian database, Eric said, "It's the name of the owner of this house." Martin is a tycoon who made his fortune on oil, and he can also rank on the national wealth list, which is a bit of a background. Above all, he was very interested in antiques from all over the world, and every once in a while he held exhibitions in his home and invited people from the upper classes...... Does that sound like the person we're looking for? ”

"That shouldn't be wrong." Diana said and prepared to step forward, "Let's go and ask him." ”

Ericla froze at her, "Of course you have to ask, but it's not necessarily useful to just go up like that." I have an idea, but first you have to change your clothes. ”
