Chapter 47: The Shield-shaped Slab
They walked through mountains of magical materials and walked towards the golden treasury in the bizarre ribbon of light. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The so-called magic materials are mostly things where the essence "abnormally" gathers, and as such, they are the most prone to the dispersion of the essence. There are various colors and shapes of light in this underground, which is the result of the dispersion of the essence, and the mage lord must have made efforts to prevent the dispersion of the essence when he built the treasure house, and these free essences gathered in the air, forming that fantastic and wonderful scene.
For Magellan, this is a very rare beauty, but for the mage it is different, which means that the huge amount of magical raw materials fails, which can be called a disaster.
But Shamir did not show pity or disappointment, and he walked in front of the countess and went straight to the door of the treasury.
This treasure house has a magnificent gate to match, and the bronze gate is covered with ornate reliefs, although it is not rich in color, but it has a solemnity.
As soon as Shamir stretched out his hand, the door was pushed open, and the most important treasure was not locked at all, and it was just open before them.
Walking through the door, what you see is not a mountain of treasures, nor a scene of all kinds of wonderful magical items neatly arranged on the shelves in the mage lord's laboratory. It was like an ordinary Ara room, with a thick carpet and a hookah on the table.
The mage leader seemed a little surprised by the situation, but he only froze for a moment before walking towards the stairs that went up the side of the room. Magellan and the countess looked at each other, said nothing, and followed.
On the second floor is a somewhat dark and narrow room, with rows of shelves arranged in the room, leaving a narrow gap in the middle.
Looking at Shamir's ecstatic appearance, the shelves should be full of ancient magic items, but from the outside, these things have no appearance of magic items at all, how strange it is.
"Where's that important clue to the Holy Grail?"
Magellan's question calmed Shamir a little, he thought for a moment, and said: "It's here, I don't know where it is, anyway, let's look for it together, and we will definitely find it." ”
Magellan nodded, and went separately from the countess to look for it, but when he saw Shamir turn his head and pick up a camel statue on the shelf, and stroke it like a lover, he knew that the mage was unreliable.
He jumped up from the edge of the room to look at the layout of the whole room, and found that the shelves took up all the space in the room, and there was no pattern in the things placed on them.
Magellan felt that this was not right, the key to this treasure trove was Reinhardt's Ring, and the clue to the Holy Grail should be placed in the easiest place to find. But he went around in circles, there was no easy place to find here, everything on the shelves was foreign to him.
"Are the mage lords the more informal kind of people?"
"Of course not," Shamir had just put down the camel statue and picked up a dusty jug, "All mage lords are the kind of meticulous people, their rooms may look cluttered, but in fact, there is a theory about where everything is placed, and all mage lords are such people, so our ancestors are more popular than them." ”
Magellan was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the mage leader, who usually never gossiped, turned out to be very bright when he gossiped. However, he didn't think it was surprising that the Mage Lord would be like this, after all, it was a "non-human" who was born with the goal of pursuing the essence of the essence.
But in this way, the appearance of this treasure trove is a bit strange, and the only explanation is that Magellan ignored the pattern of the placement of these magical items.
Although it was just a passing impression, the appearance of those things was in Magellan's mind, he recalled it, and then had a guess.
Perhaps this treasure trove can be divided into four parts, with a simple cross in the center of the room, and the four parts corresponding to the earth, water, fire, and wind, as evidenced by the fact that Magellan once saw objects with birds, fish, lizards, and tortoises in each of these four parts.
But there is a problem with this speculation, and that is that there is no area that represents the essence.
In the theory of the Mage Lord, the essence is the fifth element, which is indispensable.
Magellan walked around the room again, once again confirming the suspicion, but he did not find the "essence".
"Come and see this. ”
The countess, standing not far from Shamir, suddenly came to say this.
Magellan walked up to her and saw something that she hadn't noticed at all before.
In the middle of the room, the bottom three floors of about twelve shelves are not open like the other shelves in the room, but instead of being open partitions, they are replaced by a row of small cabinets.
At first glance, Magellan was convinced that this was the "essence" he was looking for.
"The clue to the Holy Grail should be in these cabinets. Magellan said, crouching down in a twisted position in the cramped space and beginning to rummage through the contents of the cabinet.
The countess bent down and seemed to want to help, but at this time, Magellan raised her head: "I found ......"
Despite the fact that the countess was dressed in a suit that was easy to move around, the unadorned curves were still thrilling, and at that moment, Magellan felt his soul shaken.
The countess straightened up without revealing a word: "What is that? It looks like a shield?"
"Ah, yes," Magellan felt that he had been living more and more lately, he had seen the demon king of the red light district since he was a teenager, how could he behave like an innocent virgin this year, "this is a slate." ”
"From the tomb of the Earl of Reinhardt?"
"That's how it should be. ”
The space in the middle of the shelf was very narrow, and Magellan lifted the slate up and leaned against the edge of the shelf.
"This is a very popular funerary item of the Crusader period, a shield-shaped stone slab. The slate was not light, and in order for the countess to see what was on it, Magellan struck a very awkward pose.
"The Holy Grail is surrounded by three lions......"
The countess's fingers brushed over the pattern on the slate, as if brushing away the non-existent dust on it.
"Whoever seeks things that do not exist in the world must go to the land that does not exist in the world......
"It's not like a clue, it's like a puzzle. ”
"This pattern is really surprising, stars and moon, but it is a little different from the mage lord's coat of arms, at least it is certainly not left by the mage lord. ”
