Chapter 81: The Bottom of the Ruins

The stairs leading to the bottom are made of stone slabs, and although it is difficult to judge the exact material due to the lack of light, the crisp sound of stepping on it seems to be something that Bianko likes.

Under Kyerde's watch, the girl was not allowed to walk around at will. But she tries to step down each step with different force so that she can hear different sounds.

"This may be the Ramuser Stone." Wokan looked down at the stone slab beneath his feet with interest, "If it's true, then this place is worth more than it seems." Now a fist-sized Ramusser stone can buy one of the largest shopping malls in the capital, and now it's not just ten or eight fist-sized. ”

"I hope you don't want to move them away, and then I'll have to think about how to collect your body."

"No, no, no, of course I wouldn't." Wokan hurriedly denied Kyird's sarcasm, "No matter how rich you are, you have to have a life." If I do take something here, not to mention the punishment that will be imposed on the Demon King's side, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the curse of the ruins. ”

"So, the curse of the ruins is real?" Rosette asked curiously, "I've heard before that the ruins were built thousands of years ago as a stronghold for the deities to descend, and after the deities came, the ruins could not be used by other gods again. If an alien creature tries to get closer, it will even be punished by heaven. ”

"That's pretty much what it means, but generally speaking, it's okay to enter the ruins without malicious intent, as long as you don't destroy it and take what belongs here, you'll be fine." "In the past, the gods lived on another plane, and the continent belonged only to humans. If they want to leave that plane and come to the continent where humans live, they need a building that can link the two planes to provide them with energy. ”

"If you talk about why the Demon King and other gods are able to live on the continent with humans now, then we have to talk about the measures that the Demon King did in the past." Leti spoke in a gentle tone about the history they had learned, "As you may know, the war between the gods affected humanity...... There is no way for humans to resist the power of the gods, only the gods can fight against the gods. In order to protect the human race, the Demon King established a large formation on the continent to link the two planes for a long time. ”

"Although we don't know much about the situation in the Goddess Continent, on the side of the Demon King Continent, the gods have settled on the continent." "And there is no need for another building, just rely on that formation to maintain it for thousands of years...... The magic power of the Demon King can be roughly inferred from this. It is rumored that the Grim Reaper lost his trace here after being attacked, but the Grim Reaper's divine power is almost on par with that of the Demon King. ”

"We should be glad that after a thousand years, the existence that attacked the Grim Reaper will not stop here, otherwise we won't be able to save the Grim Reaper even if we come." Wokan muttered softly, "Oh...... At the end of the day, how many floors have we come down? ”

Biancole looked back at the steps they had walked, and there was a slight light at the farthest point of her eyesight, and a chill caused her to shrink back to Kyild's side, who had thoughtfully draped his cloak over her, and then took her into his arms.

"At least five hundred meters above the ground."

Rosette replied with her excellent eyesight, and Letty had placed everything she could keep warm on her, so she didn't feel any discomfort.

"There's wind ahead." Bianko whispered, "It seems that there is still water." The man's singing voice was getting louder and louder, and he sang very well. ”

They walked to a small stone door not far from the front of the steps, and Wokan and Leti pushed it to the side. When the stone door was pushed open a small gap, cold air squeezed in, quickly filling the small space.

The sound of bubbling water came clearly from behind the door, and as a friend of the water elemental, Kylde sensitively sensed that the concentration of magic here was far greater than any place he had ever seen. But this is not a good thing, for people who are not proficient in magic, too high a concentration of magic will only put a burden on the soul.

"The singing became clear." Bianko said with some excitement, "He wanted us to pass, and he said don't be afraid of the environment here, we won't be affected." ”

Kryd frowned, cautiously looking into the space behind the door. Bianko didn't know what was wrong with the environment, so she could only have told her what the "people" inside had told her. Are there pitfalls? He doesn't know now, but there's nothing wrong with being careful.

He tentatively held out his finger behind the door, the strange touch coming from his fingertips giving him the illusion that he was being split in half by the stone door. On the other side of the door was a magical factor so thick that it made the pores of his body shut, but before that, his fingers were protected by some invisible presence. The being seemed to cling to his skin as soft as silk, but tough enough to keep out more magic than he could bear.

This protective film only reaches the stone gate. His palms were still on this side of the door, only his fingers were wrapped. Kyild continued to stretch his hand forward, the liquid-like protective film running smoothly over his skin, perfectly shielding him from the elements. He looked at Bianco, who was beside him, and decided to try it himself.

"Wait here, don't follow me in yet." He carefully told the girl, "If there is danger, I will withdraw immediately." ”

Bianko nodded, and she let go of Kyrd's hand, but her eyes were fixed on Kyrd's every move. Not only her, but the other four watched nervously as he attempted, ready to respond to any unexpected situation.

Kyild took a deep breath and strode behind the door.

He could feel the protective film spread rapidly throughout his body, including his face, but his breathing was not affected. He was still able to mobilize the magical elements of the environment as usual, and from this point of view, maybe this layer of protection only filtered out the part that exceeded the burden on the human body.

Kyild tried to move, and the reassuring protective film didn't stagnate from his actions, and there were no weak parts, as if it had grown on his skin all day by nature.

"Come on." Kyild returned to the door and held out his hand to Bianko, "Come in slowly, don't rush, if you don't feel well, go back immediately." ”

Biancole put her hand in Kryd's palm, and the moment she clasped her hands, the warmth of Kylde and the slight coolness of the soft protection made Bianko shiver, but it didn't make her feel uncomfortable, so she moved forward cautiously.

Until the end of the world behind the door, Bianko did not appear to be unusual, the girl curiously clenched her fist in the air with her free hand, of course, she could not touch anything, but this only increased her curiosity.

"Alright, silly girl, don't do such a stupid act." Kyild sighed, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" ”

Bianko glared at him condemningly, but for a moment she couldn't decide which sentence to respond to, and her face even wrinkled in confusion.

"No discomfort." Reluctantly, she first answered Kyird's question, and then aggressively retorted to his previous sentence, "I'm not stupid! I felt something, but I couldn't touch it. ”

"You can't touch it." Kryder flexed his finger and tapped Bianko's forehead, "If you can feel the form, it means that it is more easily destroyed." ”

Biancole looked at him blankly, completely unaware of what he was trying to say.

A group of six people walked cautiously on the path behind the stone gate, the sides of which were dotted with colorful crystals, and as they went deeper, the density of magic in the air was so dense that it almost materialized.

"Young Master, what are these?" Biancole pointed to the irregular geometries on both sides of the road and asked Kryder, "Melia showed me a lot of the books that looked alike, but none of them glowed. ”

"What the hell did Melia show you? Ore Encyclopedia? Kild looked at her slightly speechlessly, "Those are the hedrons that are unique to the ruins. Something that has been handed down since thousands of years ago, when the gods are at war, the breath of the gods will blend and affect the natural environment, and these crystals will be condensed as the relics with the strongest divine power. They possess a huge magical power and can easily attract beasts. ”

"And if the beast is affected by some of the magical aura leaked by the spar, it will mutate to a certain extent and become a more dangerous magical beast." Letty looked around her surroundings, "However, there is no sign of wildlife in this ruin. ”

"Stopped by a spell at the door, right?" Wokan even reached out and knocked on the hedrons, "But their magic doesn't seem to be particularly abundant, and they should still be absorbed by something." ”

As for what exactly Vokan was talking about, they almost already had a clear answer in their minds.

Droplets of water appeared in the air, reflecting a beautiful brilliance in the light of the hedrons. But Kryder knew how dangerous it could be, and its magic was the equivalent of compressing and condensing all the water elements in a city, and humans would pay a terrible price if they touched it.

"You must not touch those things." "If you're really interested in this kind of thing, I'll get you whatever you want when you go back to the capital, but for now, keep your curiosity in mind." ”

Bianko blinked innocently, and she nodded heavily to show that she would be a good obedient girl.
