In the end, Ms. Jin Langgui still smiled and agreed to Wang Zhen's request, and promised to pay for his living expenses and tuition fees at the school. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Only then did the four of them slowly step into the magical giant gate next to the teleportation array.

Because of Jin Langgui's permission, what they teleported into was the core area of the research institute, the "Courtyard of the Dead".

Slightly different from what you might think, the so-called courtyard is not a secret chamber full of cold magic weapons and rune circles, but a large complex of buildings with artificial domes. As one of the largest comprehensive research institutes in the Five Holy Cities and even in the Kingdom of Aurora, tens of thousands of researchers from different factions have gathered here, and these workaholics who are unwilling to leave the laboratory for half a step even bring all their families, and gradually form a series of areas such as shops, schools, and entertainment areas, just like a small city with complete functions.

However, as a functional floating island, it is still different from other livable island cities that pay attention to the murmuring of green trees and streams, almost all of the ground is covered by delicate marble floors, most of the surrounding buildings are less than two floors, the main materials of the building are white stones and neatly cut gray metal, which are precisely processed into oval and umbrella shapes, and uniformly depict the three capital letters of SSR, showing that this world that has not entered the industrialization also has its own good characteristic technology, as well as paying attention to neat and uniform aesthetics.

The distances between the buildings are neat and orderly, with an orderly yellow line on both sides of the wide stone streets, a kind of island-wide energy-powered railroad in the middle, "sidewalks" on either side of the yellow line, and a large area of unrecognizable urban facilities beyond.

"Please put in your own coins!"

A railroad train was driving right in front of the four people, and when the door opened, a soft female voice came from inside.

"As much as I'd like to take you to the lab for an autopsy right now, but—" Jin Langgui said the terrible words with a smile, "I'd better show you around the 'inner city' I'm so proud of." ”

Char on the side nodded and took the lead on the train.

"Drop, Savadika!"

Wang Zhen looked at the card in Char's hand with a black line, as well as the magic crystal card machine in the form of a muscular woman.

"Drop, or Savadica!"

"Drop, Master Card!"

Carol and Jin Langgui also swiped their cards to get on the bus.

Wang Zhen looked at his empty hands with an embarrassed expression.

"Get in the car, there's no time!"

This time, Wang Zhen saw it clearly, the soft female voice came from the "mouth" of the muscular beauty form credit card machine, and the complex coil and megaphone were exposed when the mouth opened and closed.

Seeing Wang Zhen staring at her mouth, the muscular woman made a shy expression: "Please stop looking at my coil tongue, there is no copper in it!"

“......”

Char is still the most reliable, took out a black crystal card and handed it to Wang Zhen, "One card per person, don't mix them, otherwise it will trigger the alarm and defensive weapons." ”

"Well, I always feel that my three views are either rebuilding after the disaster, or when the disaster is in progress. Wang Zhen couldn't complain, so he swiped the card and got into the car.

"Drop, tourist card, if you need a map, please go to the third box below the seat to swipe the card to get it, if you need manual service, the volunteer tour guide magic network number is 021-40088. ”

"Actually, this 'Courtyard of the Dead' is quite kind to tourists. Wang Zhen sighed from the bottom of his heart, as a former earthling, the biggest advantage is that he is super receptive!

Carol smiled slightly: "These voices are actually used to confuse the infiltrators, once you swipe the card to get the map or call the human service number, you will be immediately locked by the defense center, and within three minutes, you will be surrounded by a special service team of more than fifty people." ”

Please allow me to take back the previous words!

Wang Zhen only felt that his back seemed to be stared at by a pair, no, many pairs of ill-intentioned eyes.

Turning his head, he saw that there were indeed three magic crystal eyes installed in the back of the train, and they were all staring at him at this time.

"Hehe, we don't often receive tourists here, and the guards are a little nervous. ”

The train started slowly, and the scenery on the street slowly receded.

Soon, the four people were carried by an empty train into a huge square, in the center of the square, there is a statue of an unknown object, about ten meters high, made of black heavy metal as a whole, is a delicate pattern of the disc image, the sculpture is also floating around hundreds of golden yellow rays, slowly rotating around the disk, showing its solemnity and power.

"This is the symbol of the city, the Disk of Apollo, which is the oldest extraordinary artifact we have ever excavated, and one of the most important instruments for our research. Jin Langgui acted as Wang Zhen's guide, looking at the sculpture and talking, "According to the preliminary inference, the Apollo Disk should have originated in the ancient times 10,000 years ago, due to the age, coupled with the turmoil of the blood clan, the monster, and the undead clan, there is no trace of human records about it, that is, it is very important to pay attention to inheritance, and it is difficult for the well-preserved blood clan to record this kind of ancient period clearly, and our understanding of it is limited to a dilapidated blood clan document, and a number of specious inferences. ”

The Disk of Apollo?

How does it happen to coincide with the family name of Lilucis, is it a simple coincidence?

Wang Zhen narrowed his eyes and looked at the third girl: "What is a transcendent creation?"

Jin Langgui's eyes did not take off the statue, and from the backrest of the seat in the front row, he elegantly took out a glass of Seran fruit wine, "Before the advent of magic, magic objects that existed, even items that were not powered by magic but possessed strange powers, are collectively called transcendent creations. ”

"It sounds a bit like a god's creation, a prehistoric civilization or something like that. Wang Zhen nodded, and opened the seat in front of him in the same way, but inside was a cup of calendula tea.

"No one can tell where they came from. Jin Langgui slowly shook the glass, and the dark red wine inside swirled in circles with her movements, and a smell of wine overflowed, "According to our interpretation of the broken parchment scroll, in the beginning, there were no powerful demonic beasts and arrogant bloodlines on the Blue Star Continent, and there were not even humans. ”

She paused, looked at Wang Zhen, and found that the latter had no special reaction, so she took a sip of the red wine that had already awakened and continued, "At that time, the Blue Star was still the world of the Source Blood Clan and the Beasts, until one day, ghosts and shadows suddenly appeared in all corners of the world, and once the beasts were touched by it, they would directly turn into powerful Demonic Beasts and gain the power to evolve. At that time, the Source Blood clan was full of confusion and fear, and turned these dark shadows into flood beasts, and began to study ways to eliminate them, but after researching and studying, not only did they not find a way to eliminate the shadows, but instead obtained the 'curse' that spread throughout the race. ”

"Shadows, spawn monsters, curse?"

Wang Zhen had a faint hunch that this secret story, which was higher than the history of the blood clan in Lilucis's mouth, would show him a whole new world.

Jin Langgui looked at Wang Zhen and smiled slightly: "A hundred years later, these cursed source blood clans learned the method of controlling the curse due to an accident, which is later known as blood magic. Later, a very talented Grand Duke of Source Blood finally relied on the induction between the underworld to find the Apollo Disk, and the Source Blood clan at that time lifted the Apollo Disk from an ancient doomsday volcano, and its light instantly sprinkled the entire land and lit up the entire sky. That disc has a fatal attraction, and countless demonic beasts and source blood clans have launched beast herd sieges and civil wars in order to get him, and in the first few hundred years, its 'Apollo family' has been unearthed——"

"House Apollo!"

Wang Zhen exclaimed in surprise, interrupting Jin Langgui's narration, and also woke up the second daughter who was listening in a daze.

It's strange, didn't the two of them know this before?

"Hehe, there's no evidence that the current Apollo bloodline in the Northlands has anything to do with this history. Jin Langgui knew what Wang Zhen was thinking, "Then continue the topic just now, the ancient Apollo family has tried their best to protect the disc in the city, and regarded it as an artifact that can bring infinite energy, but as time goes by, the terrifying nature of the disc begins to slowly reveal, its light will actually be obscured by objects on special days, and the shadow after shading will change all the matter located in it. ”

"Shadow-shrouded creatures will transform into bloodthirsty monsters, buildings will transform into puppets of destruction, and even the dirt and air will be corroded with deadly toxins. It was only then that they suddenly discovered that the shadow of the disc and the shadow that gave birth to demonic beasts were the same thing, even more advanced and evil. ”
