Chapter Seventy-One: Notes
The yellow sand is all over the sky, as far as the eye can see.
The man stood with his sword on his hand, his nose was erect, his deep eyes looked at the sea of sand in front of him, and doubts crept in.
A small group of people was running from afar, and they were fast approaching the man with the sword.
First Paladin of the Church of the North, Head of the Knights of the Aegis, Duranta.
"Dalam, how did you turn back?"
"My lord, the mark they left behind is broken! We searched the sand for a long time, but we found no new mark. ”
After receiving the news that the Remus team had entered the Wasteland of the Moon, Duranda immediately rushed over with reinforcements. Although these teenagers believe in the pious city, they are too impulsive.
Duranta was afraid that this was someone else's conspiracy, so after getting the news, he rushed over without stopping. Who knows, it's still a step too late.
After a long silence, Duranta slowly spoke, "Dharam, you immediately rush back to Valen and go to the nearest church to mobilize the knights. Also, inform the officials of the towns near the Land of the Wild Moon and beg them to send men to our aid!"
"Yes, my lord!" Dalam answered, but hesitated again and asked, "My lord, what if they don't agree?"
The south is no more powerful than the north, and the power of the church is deeply entrenched. If it is in the north, not to mention the local officials, even the royal families of the countries will sell the paladins a face.
But this is the southern realm, and the local officials of Valen are not obliged to help a paladin from the far north?
Duranda glanced at young Dalam, and there was still a hint of innocence on the other party's rough face. He smiled, touched Duram's head, and said, "Go and talk to the white cardinal in the church to negotiate with you." If you can't convince the officials of Wallen, the Bishop knows what to do!"
Although Duranta is the strongest and youngest paladin, he is a young man, with unparalleled swordsmanship and dazzling brilliance, but it does not mean that he is not a cannibal or pedantic. The twists and turns in the church and the world, in fact, Duranta is very clear.
It's just that, in general, he doesn't bother to care.
"I see!" Dharam nodded, leading his team toward Valen.
Duranta looked at the yellow sand in the distance and muttered, "Who removed the mark left by Remus, and what is the purpose?"
......
Will led Ave into the Temple of the Dead, thinking that it would be a lot of traps, swords and swords.
However, the long path in the main hall was unusually quiet, except for the lights on both sides of the fireless spontaneous combustion, which lit up with Will's footsteps, there was no movement.
At the end of the long road, there is a stone gate blocking the way. The words and patterns on it were very obscure, and Will didn't recognize them. He turned his head, looked at Afu on the side, and asked, "What is written on it?"
Afu is a fallen god, and he is also a witness to the rise of mankind in the era of the nine gods, and he should know the words above.
Afu looked at the words and patterns on the stone door, and said slowly: "What is the true power? the amount of wealth, the level of magic, or the rise and fall of power? With the passage of time, all this will dissipate, only knowledge is eternal!"
"What did he mean?" Will couldn't hear, what was Osiris's purpose by saying this?
"Osiris seems to have set up more than a dozen barriers here, each corresponding to a gate. Only by answering the questions on the gate correctly can you open the barrier and enter the main hall. Afu explained.
“......”
Osiris is quite open-minded, as long as the IQ of the person who comes is up, his place can come and go at will.
"And what's the problem with this door?"
"A farmer kept a flock of chickens and rabbits, with a total of thirty-five heads and ninety-four legs. How many chickens are there and how many rabbits are there?"
“......”
As the doors were opened, Will was surprised to find that this godly domain magician was really wide-ranging. The difficulty of the questions on the gate is gradual, giving people the feeling of going from an elementary school exam all the way to a doctoral exam.
From binary linear equations, the area of a cylinder to the confidence interval method, linear algebra. From mathematics to potions, Wocraft, geology. The topics are so complicated and difficult that even Afu, who is a fallen god, is at a loss.
Afu looked at the fast solution of one question after another, just like Will, who was hanging. In fact, he did hang up. With the addition of a system, this kind of IQ test is not to worry about at all.
As the last door opened, the surprise in Afu's eyes still didn't dissipate, and she didn't even have the energy to look at what was behind the door?
"How do you know what kind of material the floor in front of the Imperial Capital Palace of the Ancient Orc Empire is made of?"
Will smiled, revealing the disdainful expression of the god of learning. "Knowledge is power!"
The main hall behind the door is very simple, and it is a stone platform as far as the eye can see.
The two of them walked to the stone platform, on which was an old old book.
Will flipped through it and found that the text on it was the same as the one on the stone door, and he couldn't read it at all. So, he handed the book to Afu beside him. Afu took the ancient book and said, "This is the note left by Osiris. It is stated that this temple was once the site of Osiris's experiments. He wanted to use necromancy to control the dragon, so he put some kind of undead mark on the dragon's egg before it hatched. However, this experiment failed, and all that was left was some undead skeleton dragons. So Osiris eventually abandoned the experiment and abandoned the temple. ”
Experimenting with dragon eggs? He's corrupt!
"What else is written on it?"
"There's nothing else, except for some methods of purifying dark energy. ”
"Purify dark energy?"
"Yes, it says that if humans use necromancy without purifying dark energy, they will be corrupted by death energy. And if the dark energy is purified and its essence is extracted, not only will the necromancer not be corrupted by the death qi, but the power of the necromancer he uses will be greatly enhanced. ”
Will was shocked, this was definitely a treasure! a necromancer who would not be corrupted by death. If this news spreads, the whole continent will boil.
Ave handed the note back to Will, and looked at the pool behind the stone platform, a shallow layer just enough for one person to enter.
"Is this the Heva Spring?"
The tranquil surface of the water is shiny with a silvery sheen, without a trace of ripples, and is as thick as mercury. It was the first time Will had seen the purest water in the legend.
Afu didn't speak, and took off her coat. As the naked body appeared, the dense scars covered with it also appeared clearly in front of Will's eyes.
Like ants devouring, like snake bites, hideous and terrifying, pitted. If you come with someone with weak willpower, I'm afraid you will vomit in the court.
What a feud this must be to use this means!
Afu moved forward step by step. As soon as her feet touched the water, there was a stabbing sound, like a red-hot iron touching cold water.
Afu's expression was still very calm, but the fine sweat left on her forehead undoubtedly showed that she was in pain.
The pain of scraping the flesh and ripping the heart!
Afu didn't hesitate at all, and the whole person stepped into the pool, letting the Hewa Fountain drown herself, and she didn't make a sound.
It was quiet ahead, and Will before the pool didn't know what was going on inside, and it was so thick that he couldn't see it clearly. I saw that the trail of water was slowly descending, as if it had been swallowed up by something.
After a long, long time, Will worries about Aph's condition and wants to go and get her.
But he heard the sound of the pool, and then, in front of his eyes, a stunning woman as dazzling as the sun, naked, pure white and immaculate. The woman is young and charming, full of youthful energy.
"Are you Aph?" asked Will tentatively.
The woman did not deny it, but she also did not affirm it, and said, "My name is Gullvig!"
