Not only does this projection allow you to see everything in detail clearly, but it also scales and rotates, and Magellan is confident that he will not miss any useful information if there is one.

Compared to the various temples Magellan's previous sights, the temple of Isitar in this ruins is pitifully small, and the entire city is not as small as a temple, but considering the age of the ruins, the value of this ruin is immeasurable.

Just as he expected, everything recorded by the essence was exactly in line with his memory, so at first, Magellan did not find anything useful.

But the record of the essence is always more useful than a person's memory, for example, Magellan could not take out his own memory and make the countess scale and rotate.

The two of them worked together to reveal the information, but as expected, fragmented and chaotic.

At least for now, none of this stuff is of any use.

"Typical early human civilization, because of the superior natural conditions formed settlements, simple stone buildings, traces of the use of fire, no agriculture, mainly by hunting to survive. ”

This is a typical summary of archaeological findings, but it is not satisfactory.

"I'll take a closer look at the temple. Magellan felt that there should be any information that had not been discovered, and if only this little bit of information could be obtained in every ancient ruin, then even if hundreds or thousands of ruins were excavated, they would not want to complete the countess's investigation, "You look for text-related things." ”

"Don't blame me for not reminding you," the countess didn't give up completely, but she didn't hold out much hope either, "the civilization may not even have had time to create words. ”

......

Traveling in the desert is starting to get boring.

It was a huge ocean, far barren and dangerous than the blue ocean, with almost no life underneath the sand and a hot hell above.

Oases are islands thousands of miles apart, and so is the Countess's destination.

More than 4,000 years ago, this sea of sand was a fertile land with abundant water, and human beings formed settlements, built cities, and eventually formed civilizations because of nature's preferences.

They worshipped Isithar, daughter of the gods, god of the stars, goddess of wisdom, patron goddess of women, and built temples in the city.

No one knows if the goddess is still alive today, when the entire civilization has disappeared, but at least, the countess still has hope.

And her efforts paid off.

"Come and see this. ”

Magellan was standing in the middle of the captain's quarters, and before his eyes was a projection of the ruins.

"What?"

The countess walked up to Magellan, but she did not see any useful information.

"Stand here," Magellan moved out of the way, carefully adjusting the angle of the projection, "looking here." ”

"It's ......"

The countess saw a pattern she had never seen before, it was a star with four sharp horns, and next to the star was a pattern of the sun and the moon, which seemed to be even bigger and brighter than the sun and moon.

"The brightest star, Isitar ......"

The countess sighed, then glanced at the angle of the projection.

"This location?"

"Yes," Magellan smiled, and it was all a coincidence, "the location of the entrance to the temple." ”

Anyone who walks into the temple and looks up is the star that can only be seen at a certain angle, and when they leave that position, they will find that the star has disappeared, and if the sandstorm does not appear, Magellan will be the first to find this conspicuous star after excavating the ruins.

"Pretty little trick," the countess shook her head with a smile, "and quite useful." ”

In the video, the countess finds more than one four-pointed star, which the two have never known to represent, and now the answer is in front of them - it is Isitar.

"So here," said the countess, turning the phantom and pointing to a four-pointed star pattern behind the temple, "this is the only one that is not the owner of the room to sign that he is a believer of Isitar, what is in this room?"

It was a room at the back of the temple, and the stars were inside the room, not directly above the door, as was the case everywhere else, and the room did not look like it was inhabited, but was made of mutilated stones of various shapes.

"Warehouse...... Or, "Magellan prefers the latter possibly," the organ. ”

"You say so...... countess," said the countess, "the shape of these stones resembles an ancient temple I have ever seen." ”

The countess was talking about the famous ancient Greek temple of the sun, famous for its self-opening mechanism, which Magellan had also read.

"Here," Magellan said, standing beside the countess, turning the image, "the sink, in those days, the environment in which the city was located was not short of water, and then there should have been a waterwheel-like installation here, wooden, so completely rotten and invisible. ”

Magellan watched as the projection began at the sink, and speculated upwards based on the shape of the remaining stones.

The entire installation is powered by a straw rope that drives a runner above the wooden wheel, which separates the propulsion into three different positions.

"Finally, three pieces of grass rope that have rotted and disappeared are connected......," Magellan circled around the phantom, "here, these three places. ”

Then the countess smiled: "According to the direction of the hinge, the final result is the pattern of the star just now." ”

"Uh......" Magellan finally gave up, "I can't imagine what that will turn out to be for the time being......"

"Don't imagine," said the countess, laughing, raising her hand, "it's a bit of a hassle, but it's nothing to me. ”

The phantom followed the countess's fingers and began to move, as if they were entities, and the last three boulders of the entire mechanism began to rotate along the axis.

Soon, another pattern appeared in front of the two of them.

"But this ...... There is no point ......"

The design of the mechanism is not complicated, the boulder is flipped just to reveal the other side and cannot be rotated, and then there will be lines to form another pattern that can only be seen by standing at a certain angle, and it is a completely meaningless pattern made of curves.

"Map. ”

The countess's guess was almost the only correct answer, which gave Magellan a sense of powerlessness.

"I don't recognize this map, and it's not anywhere I've seen it. ”

"Think about it, why is there a map hidden in the temple?"

This is a problem, generally speaking, the temple mechanism will only have one purpose, to make people worship.
