Chapter 43: The Clergy
Andy turned to look at Trist, who was fiddling with the book, and asked, "How did you get this book?" Seeing that Andy was a little unhappy, Trist immediately lowered her head and said, "I told you all when Clarence asked me just now. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Andy didn't say anything and looked at Trist, the Bunier girl was a little flustered, she said tremblingly: "I saw this brocade box moving around on the ground, and I thought there were small animals locked up here, so I opened it and found it." Clarence said to Andy, "Don't embarrass her, this alchemy book of the Calby Elves has been treasured in this library for many years, just waiting for its master to wake it up again." ”
Clarence pointed to the brocade box in Andy's hand and said, "It is impossible for you to find this brocade box when you cleaned last time, because it is invisible, and there is a seal on the brocade box, it is impossible to open this brocade box without a specific mark." ”
Clarence picked up Trist's right hand, and Andy saw that the back of the dusty hand seemed to have some kind of pattern engraved on it. Trist blushed and peeked at Andy, her little heart was beating very hard, and now this Bunier girl couldn't suppress her feelings, as long as she faced Andy's handsome face, the whole person was in a state of confusion.
Suddenly, Clarence shouted, "Royalty, it must be the mark of royalty." Oh my God, is this little girl royal?" Andy heard this, thinking of what Buck had said to him, and he turned to Clarence and said, "The chief of the village of Bunier seems to have said this, but I didn't listen carefully at the time. ”
Clarence rubbed his beard with his hand when he heard Andy's words and said, "This can explain what happened just now, Trist should belong to the royal family of Buniel, and his mark can open this brocade box containing the alchemy book of the Elves of Colby." With that, Clarence quickly ran to the bookshelf, and he rummaged through the books one by one.
Suddenly, he waved his right hand back and said with a smile, "I finally found you." As he spoke, he pulled out a large roll of parchment from the shelf. He tucked the parchment under his right arm and reached out with his left hand to move Luminite Coral to the corner of the table. He slowly untied the brocade ribbon from the parchment and carefully spread it on the table.
Trist jumped up on a stool and approached Clarence with Luminite Coral in her hand, and she tiptoed to ask, "What are you doing?" I can't see it. Andy wanted to play a joke with the mischievous little girl, so he grabbed Trist and put it on the parchment, and Clarence exclaimed.
Trist, who had blushed in shame, was instantly lifted up by a mysterious force, and the figures, birds and beasts drawn on the parchment suddenly moved, and Andy saw a beautiful desert oasis appear around Trist.
Clarence picked up the whip and pointed to the castle in the oasis and said, "This is the Ghost Temple, which at that time still stood in the Sweet Water Oasis in the Horn Desert. The castle's owner, an alchemy-obsessed Calby elf, had traveled far from the valley of Virginia to this barren land, a madman who had spent his life researching potions of invisibility. ”
Andy's head buzzed, he seemed to have heard the name of the potion for a while, but he couldn't remember it. He pressed his head with both hands and asked painfully, "What do these things have to do with this brocade box, and what is the purpose of the stealth potion?"
Clarence picked up the transparent vial in the brocade box, he unscrewed the cap and poured the viscous liquid inside onto Andy's right hand, the Auston boy immediately found that his right hand suddenly disappeared in front of his eyes, he immediately stretched out his left hand to grab his right hand, but the disappeared right hand actually appeared again, he couldn't believe his eyes. While Andy was pondering, Trist, who was held up by the map, shouted to get off the parchment.
Clarence picked up Trist and put her on the ground, and the little Bunnier said disappointedly, "I didn't let you hold it." The ancient soul didn't hear Trist's words, and he lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?" Trist ran away with a red face.
Clarence straightened up and said to Andy: "This alchemist finally refined the invisibility potion, and he immediately sent the news to the entire continent, including the Elven King of Colby, the King of Auston, the leader of Buniel, and many other medicine seekers from the vast continent rushed to the Horn Desert. The Ghost Temple then became the most lively place in the entire vast continent at that time, and countless treasures were piled up in the center of the temple hall, and the owners of these royal powers showed enough sincerity in order to obtain eternal life. They drew maps on a piece of parchment without any blemish and formed alliances. They shared the remaining invisibility potions in this brocade box, and in order to ensure the uniqueness of those who possessed the royal power, some suggested using dark magic to make seals to seal the alchemy book containing the invisibility potions forever, as well as the remaining invisibility potions. They also used a soldering iron made of magic to leave the mark of opening the brocade box on the back of each royal family's hand, so that future generations could enjoy the fountain of eternal life. As the group drove towards the Flame Canyon, they found that the stealth potion in their hands seemed to be not pure enough, and the alchemist made a fatal mistake in the entire development of the potion. Without the involvement of the Blue Ghost, these potions would last for a very short time, and those who possessed the throne would not be able to complete their mission of bypassing the guardian dragons. ”
Andy asked, puzzled, "What is the Guardian Dragon, and why did you want to go around it?" Clarence pointed to the dome of the library, "The answer lies in the faded murals." Andy looked up at the dome mural, where some Auston warriors were holding shields against the flames of a black dragon with a mountain of treasures behind it, and a small fountain at the edge of the mural.
Clarence pointed to the fire-breathing dragon in the dome and said, "That's the guardian dragon, it is responsible for guarding the wealth of the vast continent, and the small fountain behind it is the fountain of eternal life." It is said that the spring water can bring the dead back to life, and the living will gain the power of immortality by drinking the water of the spring of eternal life. ”
Andy listened to Clarence and said, "These drawings are incredible. The elder soul shrugged his shoulders when he heard Andy say this, and said, "You must think that all of this is something that people came up with, right?" Andy nodded.
Clarence continued, "Guardian Dragons are immune to magic, and the only way to reach the Fountain of Eternal Life is to bypass it. Those who want to get immortality and treasure take the invisibility potion to the Flame Canyon. The result was tragic, and the invisibility potion with insufficient purity could not pass through the guardian dragon, and those who narrowly escaped the dragon's mouth had the entire account on the head of the owner of the Ghost Temple. The entire temple was ransacked, and the severed heads were piled up all over the temple hall, and only the clergy at the time survived, but they were ruthlessly deprived of their eyes. His long solitude changed his temperament, and one dark night, he ended his life, but he was summoned by a mysterious force, and the entire temple fell from the chasm to the abyss. Countless souls have since been given shelter, and they have continued to do their living activities until the Rift Eater envelops Dylan here, and everything changes. ”
Andy looked at the gloomy Clarence and asked, "Is it you the clergyman who got his eyes gouged out?"
