"Come on, put the Ice Crystal Crown on it and try it!"

“... In other words, maybe it's an illusion, maybe it's a mental attack?"

"Well, I don't know what it is, you can stand up and give it a try. ”

"I don't want it! In case some strange illusion makes me do something this or that in it, how will I get married then?!"

“... What the hell are you thinking... I don't think anyone who designed illusions would ever come up with such a vision... Ah, speaking of which, there is no reaction at all. ”

The gorgeous crown of ice crystal was placed on the stone platform, and there was no reaction from the beginning to the present.

There was no glow to indicate the next destination, nor did it sink all to reveal the entrance to the secret passage.

"Strange... Alice, do you have any other clues? Isn't that all?"

“......”

“... Isn't it? Is there really only one clue as to where to place this crown of crystal? Haven't heard of any other rituals, or some kind of spell or something?"

"There's no way, this crystal crown was just brought out by the first batch of merchants who arrived there as a beautiful handicraft at the beginning, and at most, the price was very high because the material used to make it was 10,000 years of ice. It wasn't until the people searching for the treasure searched the entire city that the news of the Ice Crystal Crown related to the treasure came out again, so even if I got the Crystal Crown and asked the first group of people who arrived in the Duchy of Saint-Il, they couldn't provide more clues. ”

“... There's no way around it, but it's certain that there's something wrong with this stone platform, but if this crown isn't the key... Hmmm?key?!"

"What's wrong?

"Because I've only heard that word lately, Windsor, give me another staff!"

"Good!"

Taking the staff that seemed to be even more icer from Windsor's hand, Luo Xiaotian put it on the stone platform along with the Ice Crystal Crown.

Speaking of keys, isn't that the so-called key to the tower! And there were two items around him that were also made of 10,000-year-old ice, no matter how you thought about it, Luo Xiaotian felt that it was not a coincidence.

"Ah, I've been asking you a long time ago, what the hell is this?"

"This is the same staff made of 10,000-year-old ice, which I found earlier from a somewhat strange ancient ruins. Imagine that the king of the Duchy of Saint-Il is holding an ice scepter and wearing an ice crown of ice, isn't that just right? Is the king of the Duchy of Saint-Il a woman?"

“... Have you forgotten, as I said at the auction, the Ice Crystal Crown was worn by the princess of the Duchy of St. Il, and as for the Ice Scepter... I've never heard of such a thing in the Duchy of Saint-Il!"

“... Ah, am I thinking too simply? It's not a tower, and it's not a staff, and it's not a key? So, what now?"

"Hmm... Since it used to be worn by the princess, should we go to the princess's dormitory to have a look? Actually, what I wanted to go to most was the high platform in the square outside, and I thought that there would be something there, but unfortunately, the high platform was broken. ”

"Well, anyway, let's go to the princess's bedroom first, and then go to the high platform where there is only half a section left. But what about the upper half, which doesn't seem to be seen from the outside?"

"I don't know, those merchants told me that this was the way they came here, and one thing, when they came to the city, everything seemed normal, and in those rooms in the city, there was even food that was half cooked and frozen, as if everyone had disappeared in an instant, without any resistance. ”

"Huh, what about the walls..."

"Those walls were destroyed later, and the fine stone is still a precious thing here, and the nearby countries once dismantled the walls of Saint-Il and shipped them back to their city-states, but since the cities that did so were destroyed for various reasons, no city has done so. Rumors of bad luck and curses also began at that time. ”

But from Luo Xiaotian's eyes, everything here is relatively normal, you know, if there is any bad luck or curse, these things related to dark attributes should be reflected in the things they are attached to, just like the ice crystal crown in front of them, emitting... Luo Xiaotian remembered that when he saw it for the first time, there were many pitch-black tentacles stretched out like an octopus, and now it looks, not only has the appearance changed, but even the color is different from the original.

It's the same black, but this kind of black is different, the original one, as if it wants to swallow people into it, but now it's black, it's a black light, and it exudes a light that can't be accurately described. Moreover, the octopus-like thing is gone, and now it looks like a crown that must have emitted a black halo.

Wait, Luo Xiaotian seemed to remember something.

Turning his head, the black tentacles sticking out of Xiaobei's body were about to touch the ceiling!

"Becky..."

"Huh?

“... Can you please stay away from us?"

“......”

When I go back, find a priest to help it purify, but I hope that even Becky herself will be purified.

In fact, there is a question that has been bothering Luo Xiaotian for a long time, you say, although Luo Xiaotian has been calling those things with suction cups to touch their feet and feet, but, for octopuses, which ones are hands and which are feet?

"Rollo, did you find anything again?"

"Uh... No, I'm just thinking about a serious question. ”

"What's the problem? If you can, why don't you tell us? We can help you solve it." ”

"No, no, let's go to the princess's bedchamber first!"

As he spoke, Luo Xiaotian reached out and picked up the ice crystal crown on the stone platform.

"Click"

“... Is there any sound?"

"Well, I heard it too, it seems to be the sound of gears turning?"

"Ahh Are you rusty?"

"Hah, I won't rust, okay! It's the top of the head, the top of the head!"

Crown?

Luo Xiaotian raised his head and saw the ceiling slowly opening, and after the sound of "click" stopped, a spiral ladder descended from the ceiling again, stopping right in front of Luo Xiaotian.

... I have to say that the person who made this decision is very interesting, but if you take this building apart, you won't be able to hide it, right? Oh? So there is really a problem with the stone on the city wall? The best stone should have been used for the royal palace, so let's go to the city wall and take a look at it.
