Chapter 544: Orton is out
When Rocky and Karina checked from the third floor to the second floor, and then all the way from the second floor to the first floor, they found that there were no research rooms in the entire research building!
The layout of this research institute, the third floor is the residence of the researcher, and the second floor is similar to a warehouse, stockpiling a large number of research equipment, presumably the materials mentioned in the diary should have been placed on the second floor, so it stands to reason that the first floor should be a research room, because there is no other place here except the first floor.
However, when the two actually came to the first floor, they found that the first floor was a hall, but there was nothing in the empty hall except for the magic array on the wall and the ground.
This is a fool of the two of them, everything they see is completely different from what is in the diary!
Don't...... What's in the diary isn't right?
Rocky thought about it and thought it was unlikely, if it wasn't a diary problem, could it be that they didn't find the right place?
"Look around, see if there's a secret room or something. ”
After thinking about it, Rocky glanced at Karina.
After all, he had found the Lost Research Institute before, and he knew that there might be a mechanism in such a place.
"Good. ”
Nodding, Karina walked down the hall while Rocky walked to the walls painted with magic circles.
When he came to the wall, he knocked on it with his hand to see if there was a secret door or something, but the sound from the wall was so solid that it didn't look like it was hollowed.
After that, the two of them began to search in the hall, and the two of them walked along the walls of the hall and knocked all the way, hoping to find some mechanism, but when they looked around and reunited, they looked at each other and shook their heads, and neither of them found anything.
"What should I do?"
This result made Karina a a little disappointed, she originally thought that this time at least some gains would be made, especially after discovering the diary, but she didn't expect to find nothing.
"Don't worry......"
Compared to the disappointed Karina, Rocky was noticeably calmer, and looked to the left and right as he spoke.
Following his line of sight, the empty hall was in full view, so soon his gaze fell on the magic circle on the wall.
And staring at the magic array on the wall for a while, he seemed to be talking to Karina, and as if he was talking to himself, he said: "These magic arrays are the same as the upstairs, are they used to protect this building?"
"Not necessarily, these magic arrays may be used to keep other magic arrays running, or to provide a defensive net, who knows. ”
Following his gaze at the wall, Karina shrugged.
Hearing this, Rocky withdrew his gaze and looked down at his feet.
"What are these magic arrays on the ground used for?"
"This ...... Who knows......"
Unexpectedly, Rocky was so interested in the magic array, and Karina was speechless, because neither of them was a real mage, so their understanding of the magic array was quite limited, and they couldn't understand these symbols at all.
And just when Karina was at a loss, Rocky frowned while looking down at the magic array at her feet.
Although he didn't know much about magic arrays, after all, he was Orton's student, and his understanding of magic might not be very much, but he was definitely much stronger than ordinary people, and it was precisely because of this that he paid so much attention to these magic arrays in the hall on the first floor.
Maybe because of the magic runes, Rocky is still very sensitive to these magic symbols, so Karina may not have noticed, but he has already discovered one thing, that is, these magic arrays in the hall on the first floor, whether they are on the wall or on the ground, are completely different from the magic arrays upstairs!
These magic arrays are just incomprehensible symbols in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is difficult to find the difference, but Rocky can find that he finds that the two magic arrays are different, so that is to say, the magic array in the hall on the first floor is not used to protect the defensive circle of this research institute, but what are these magic circles used for?
It was a question that was a bit beyond Rocky's knowledge, so he didn't have an answer, but he knew who could answer it for him.
Orton!
Since this time he was here to explore the ruins of Cassin City, and hoped to find some remnants of the terrestrial era of technological research in the ruins, Rocky brought Orton with him, even though Orton was very unhappy about it, thinking that it was delaying his time, but Rocky still brought him with him.
And these magic arrays in front of him Rocky may not be able to understand, but Orton can definitely understand it, because only a scholar like him in this world can study magic painstakingly.
Thinking of this, Rocky turned to Karina: "Let's go, go back." ”
"Going back?"
Seeing that Rocky wanted to go back, Karina was stunned, although she didn't have much hope, she still wanted to try again.
"It's not that I won't look for it, it's that I'm looking for someone to help, I think there is something wrong with the magic circle here......"
In a few words, Rocky said his thoughts, and Karina, who listened to his words, naturally would not refute, after all, if it is really like what Rocky said, the problem lies in the magic array here, then he can only ask Orton to help, and others are not capable of cracking the magic array at all.
After that, the two of them left directly through the main entrance of the hall, and then flew back to Sky City, which had long been suspended above the ruins.
On the way back, Rocky contacted Lilia in advance and asked her to call Orton to the airport, so when the two returned to the airport in Kartos City, Orton was already waiting.
"Stinky boy, what do you have to come to me for, I don't know if I'm busy!"
When Rocky returned, before he could even take the initiative to find Orton, Orton snorted and took the initiative to find him.
However, Orton didn't lie, now the research on runes is at a critical moment, and it seems that a major breakthrough is about to happen, so even if Orton and Rocky come out, they are still studying alone, so Rocky does bother him.
However, Rocky had already figured out Orton's temper, and without explaining it at all, he directly handed over the diary he found.
Sure enough, Orton, who had read the diary once, was no longer angry, but he looked a little confused.
"The kingdoms of all the people, really did research, what is it, did you get it back!"
"No ......"
Shaking his head, Rocky told Orton about the magic array he saw and his guesses: "Teacher, I want you to go with me to see it, after all, I can't figure out the magic array." ”
"Humph!"
Hearing this, Orton gave Rocky a blank look: "I have already asked you to learn more knowledge, don't be busy with your all day long, now you understand the meaning of hating less when the book is used, right?"
"Let's go, get ready for the floating boat, and I'll go down with you to have a look." ”
After teaching Rocky a few words, Orton didn't say much, and walked directly towards the Warhorse, although he didn't just say it, but his heart was obviously aroused.
