Chapter 279: The Chamber of Secrets

As soon as he entered the city, a giant dragon flew down the hill and soon came to Gatis, its massive body covering the sky above Raphael's head.

The dragon's face was unhappy, and a deep voice sounded, "What are you doing here?"

Gatis said kindly: "Gould, I have no intention of disturbing you, I am just taking my friends to explore the Devil's Tears, and I will come here to visit by the way." This is my friends Raphael and Avril. This is Wurm Gould, but his strength has surpassed that of ordinary dragons, and when his strength is reached, a trace of dragon blood causes him to become a real dragon. ”

Gould looked at Avril in surprise and said, "It's good if you don't have an idea, you can take a look at the city, the Devil's Tears are very close from here." ”

The flame in Gatti's eyes danced, and she said, "Gould, don't you invite us to sit at your house?"

There was a fierce glint in Gould's eyes, and he said, "Are we on such good terms? Your friend is very strong, but I don't welcome it." ”

Ghatis said to Raphael: "There is nothing left in this city, but there is a magic circle in the main castle of the city lord where Gould lives, this magic circle is synchronized with the rhythm of the earth, which can not only greatly enhance the defense of the building, but also completely block the exploration of the divine thoughts. ”

Gould said: "Damn Gadis, what do you mean? Raphael and Avril, I advise you to be careful Gaitis, she is trying to get you to kill me, she usually trains those Warcraft, and wants to build an obedient Warcraft army to rule the Eastern Continent, haha, rely on these Warcraft? Will they still build houses? Gaitis, even if you really rule, what can you do?"

Raphael naturally understood that for the sake of the magic crystal, it was no problem for the demonic beast to dig and mine, so he said: "Whether you have a conflict or not has nothing to do with us, but we won't damage the magic circle, just take a look." ”

Avril's eyes sparkled with gold, and she said, "Gattith, didn't you say that this is all your territory? ”

Gould sneered, "Territory, don't be kidding, Ghatis is just controlling some magical beasts. ”

Gartis smiled: "Don't talk nonsense, don't show it." ”

Gould's fucking eyes showed a fierce glint, and he glanced at Gartis with a hideous expression, and without answering, he flew up, flapped his huge wings, and flew out of the city.

Raphaelci said, "What does that mean?"

Gatis sneered and said, "Let's see it, it's just that he feels faceless and doesn't say it directly, let's go to the Devil's Tears." ”

Avril was very skeptical, and said, "Gatis, are you calculating us?"

Gatis said indifferently: "How come? Are you still afraid of calculations?"

Raphael shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, you are very strong, you are not afraid of calculations, let's go quickly." ”

The main fort is the kind of closed fortress, divided into three floors, and the interior is very richly decorated, but now the floor slabs inside are all gone, and there is no furniture, only a big dragon's nest made of big glue, and there are some corpses of demonic beasts hanging on the walls of the fort, probably Gould is food.

Raphael and Avril followed Gartis to the basement of the main castle, there was only one basement, which was deep into the belly of the mountain, and there were many high and low stone platforms in the basement for the needs of the magic circle.

Raphael and Avril both took out the mirror crystal and recorded the magic circle here, and after getting it done, Avril's golden whip was waved, and the magic circle was destroyed by her one by one.

It is not uncommon to increase the defense of the magic circle, although the magic of the mainland has been left behind a lot after the God War, but after so many years of development, it has also created a lot of magic circles with strong defense, but the magic circle that shields the divine thoughts is rare. Avril obviously didn't want more people to know about the circle.

When the three of them are done, they ride Derpy to the Devil's Tears.

The Devil's Tears were really close to leaving here, because the mountain wall on the other side of the canyon had already appeared in the distance, and it was obvious that the Devil's Tears could not be in the mountains.

Coming to the area near the mountain wall, Gedith pointed to a large semi-circular pit in the ground and said, "The Devil's Tears have arrived. ”

After Raphael took Derpy, he looked at it, and didn't find anything special about this huge pit, so he said strangely: "Could it be that the Devil's Tears have been dug up entirely?"

Gartis smiled at Raphael, walked to a huge stone platform in front of the pit, and said, "Raphael, you know how to open the mechanism, otherwise you won't be able to enter the canyon, you can open it, once you make a mistake, the magic circle inside will be broken." ”

It seems that the demon's tears are hidden, Raphael heard the words and came to the stone platform, carefully sensed it, and knew that there was a jing god brand circle in the cabinet, but after so many years, without the owner to open it, the brand has long been restored, but there is less trouble.

Using Jing's divine power, he easily opened a huge stone slab, revealing a stone cabinet, which was not a magic circle, but many magic circle nodes, which were neatly arranged, adding up to more than three hundred.

Gatis pointed to the node and said, "Raphael, inlay the magic crystal, I don't care about this, I have to come." ”

Compared to the Demon's Tears, the Magic Crystal is nothing.

These three hundred magic crystals belong to various departments, and Raphael can take them.

After taking a closer look at the nodes, he found that there were no special circles built near the nodes, so it didn't take any order, he spent some effort to fill the nodes.

Once it was done, Raphael activated the circle.

Colorful light flashed, and the entire stone platform lit up.

A faint oval ball of light resembling a large glass dome appeared above the crater, and a castle loomed in the air.

Gradually, the canopy stabilized, and the castle within it became visible, and the castle was built on an inverted cone-shaped stone hill, which was silently suspended in the air.

One side of the stone platform creates a path of light, which forms a staircase that is like a solid staircase, leading up to the stone steps of the castle's main gate.

It is estimated that it is the appearance of this tear-shaped dome that makes this place called the Devil's Tears.

Raphael exclaimed in surprise and said excitedly, "Is this a floating city?"

Avril understood at a glance and said, "No, this is a space magic technology, and this leads to a natural sub-plane space, this sub-plane is not big, there is only a building of Demon Tears." ”

Can you see this?Gatis glanced at Avril jealously, and then said, "That's why I can't get in, the magic in my soul has fixed me in this plane." I don't think there's any mechanism open inside, so you can be bold enough to investigate. I'll wait for you here, there is also a magic circle to open the passage in this castle, don't worry. ”

Subplanes? That's a great thing!

However, the space road signs are all relative, and when you are in this space, you can't determine the road signs of this space.

Raphael didn't know the Dao Marker of the main plane, so after entering the Demon's Tears, he didn't seem to be safe, and hurriedly said, "Do the main plane and this sub-plane have Dao markers?"

Jiatisi pointed to the stone platform and said: "It's inside, it's a pity that you have already opened it, the protection inside has been infused with magic power, once this protection is opened, it can last for several years, during which no one is allowed to probe, otherwise it will destroy the road mark, I'm afraid you won't get it." ”

With such magical protection?Raphael looked at the fire spirit speechlessly, why didn't he say it earlier?But he still tried to use his divine power to probe the stone platform.

Gatis's flaming eyes twitched, and she said, "You'd better not do this, or there's a good chance that the Demon Tears will disappear." ”

If it was so fragile, when the enemy came to attack here, wouldn't the Devil's Tears be finished at once, Raphael didn't believe it, but he didn't dare to take the risk, so after thinking about it, he decided to forget it, and said, "Okay, I won't investigate." ”

Avril didn't believe it either, and said, "Gattith, you don't want to calculate us outside, do you?"

Jiatisi said disdainfully: "How come, I still want the things inside, the people here were evacuated in a hurry, presumably the lord's treasury has not been put away, it is estimated that there is a lot of wealth, in addition to the fire magic crystal, I only need a crystal skeleton necklace." ”

Of course, it is impossible for a true nobleman to put all his treasures in his spatial ring, otherwise he will become the object of the enemy's calculations.

Raphael thought about it, it is certain that there is also a passage circle in the castle, it should not be risky, and there is no reason for Gatis to trick him into coming here to imprison him.

He and Avril walked slowly into the passage, and this path of light was like substance, no different from ordinary stone steps.

At the end of the stone steps, the gate of the castle is open, and there are many things scattered on the ground, and there are even gems and magic crystals and monster stones among these things, which shows the panic of the people here when they retreat, but the castle is very clean, and it is not like the previous Forgotten City, and the houses are covered with dust, this is because of the sub-plane.

Raphael collected them along the road, but there was no need for a precautionary mechanism.

Since the people were so flustered, after closing the mechanism, they would definitely not open it again, so they evacuated.

The castle has many room floors, and the two of them scattered to find key locations according to the usual habits of the lords, such as the city lord's study and bedroom.

After a while, Avril called out from the castle, "Raphael, great thief, come to the end of the passage to the dormitory." ”

Raphael had no success in his exploration, and when he heard it, he immediately ran along the dark ancient passage to find Avril.

There was a cornering corner at the end of the passage in the dormitory, where Avril was waiting.

She saw Raphael and said, "Look, this dead end is not normal. ”

Raphael looked out through the large stone windowsill in the passage, where the two parts of the building meet, and there was really no need to leave a dead end, so he said, "My dear, you are very observant. ”

Avril said: "Who is your dear, don't talk nonsense, come and find out." ”

Raphael relied on Jing's divine power to investigate carefully, and found a secret door, which was very cleverly designed, combined with the painting patterns on the wall, and there was no gap at all.

This secret door is not complicated, it was originally opened by the magic array with a small physical mechanism, but now the magic array is invalid, and the physical mechanism is like an ordinary lock, which is very easy to open, just to cover up the secret door.

After opening the secret door, there are passages downward, and Raphael finds the magic lamp's circle and opens them.

The passage lit up, and the two explored it, but found no mechanism, and walked all the way along the passage to the end.

At the end of the passage was a small room with all the furniture and even the bed, which looked like a cheating affair.

Avril looked it up, but found nothing, so she was a little distracted.

Raphael, however, became excited, and walked towards a relief painting inlaid in stone.

This large relief, three meters wide and two meters high, depicts some continental conquests, and most importantly, the entire background is a map of the continental terrain.

Raphael carefully checked his map of the Eastern Continent, and basically all of them matched, but unfortunately, there was only one outline of the Philip Territory on this map, which was basically the sea area between the current Wandao Sea and the Eastern Continent.

It's better than no general range.

Raphael muttered, carefully noting the location of the Phi Thi Collar before he used his Jing divine power to sense the relief, and the mechanism inside slowly appeared in his mind.

Found something good!

This mechanism contains the imprint of the god jing, and of course the imprint has been calmed down, Raphael pressed the human head on the relief in turn, and a small hole in the slab appeared in the relief.

Inlaid with magic crystals, the magic circle was activated, and the entire sculpture was moved upward, revealing a door, which was very simple, just two synchronous keyholes, but the two holes were far apart, and two people needed to work at the same time.

In the induction, the shape of the keyhole is very complex, and the role of the key is to communicate the breakpoints of the two circles in the keyhole and provide magic support to the circle.

This was not difficult for Raphael, he took out two pieces of magic circle materials, fiddled with them, and after a while, he had two keys inlaid with magic crystals in his hands.

Avril had been watching Raphael fiddle with curiosity, and Raphael slipped a key to her and said, "Wait and turn together." ”

The key was inserted into the hole, and in the gesture of their eyes, the two of them turned the key together, and with a slight click, the lock in the alloy door was released.

Opening the thick alloy door, the two walked in.

Inside is a room with a length and width of 100 meters, because it is a sub-plane, only the rules are in line with the main plane, and even the materials of the castle are transported in and built by the main plane, so there is almost no dust here.

The room was propped up by tall pillars, and it was very large, filled with large chests that could hold two people, and rows of shelves, on which also placed chests, which contained scrolls, magical materials, and some books.

Raphael picked up a scroll and sensed it.

The material of the scroll is relatively ordinary, but the storage inside is medium-level magic.

Seeing that there was a magic crystal inlay hole on the scroll, Raphael understood that this scroll was also made of magic crystal.

opened the scroll directly, and sure enough, the magic pattern in it did not react.

These reels are amazing!

Don't look at it as just mid-level magic, this is already quite remarkable, because the materials of these scrolls are very ordinary, unlike the scrolls made on the continent now, which rely on excellent materials to store mana.

In this way, there is the possibility of mass manufacturing, and these scrolls can be used by anyone with a little bit of divine power, and they are completely combat-ready weapons.

Raphael looked at those books again, and found that they were all mainland lingua franca, and because of its jing, the continental lingua franca had hardly changed much over the years.

These books are made of magical metal materials, which can withstand the years without damage, including various magic skills, the principles of magic circles, the production of magic items, etc., everything is a big treasure trove,

However, Raphael searched for a long time and didn't see the contents of Angel's Tears, so he picked up a book of the lord's events that he found and looked at it.

Avril opened a large chest, which was full of gems and magic crystals.

The excitement of finding the treasure through her own efforts is conceivable, and for the first time in her existence, Avril felt this excitement, especially since she was also affected by this body, and she happily grabbed a handful of gems and sprinkled them in the sky, exclaiming, "Rich!

How could this girl be short of money!Raphael twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Avril, don't spill it, you'll have to pick it up later." ”

As a result, Avril made a move that amazed Raphael, and she threw herself into the pile of gems and rolled around.

A drop of cold sweat flowed from Raphael's head, this Avril was thin and tender, and said, "Avril, doesn't it hurt for you to roll in the pile of gems?"

Avril felt embarrassed, but for some reason, even if this body had no soul, it would always affect her, and she only felt excited to death, so she shouted, "It doesn't hurt, it's comfortable!" and continued to roll in the pile of gems, and hugged the gems with her arms.

Of course, Raphael liked it too, but after a few expeditions, he was able to take it more calmly.

Continue to look at the lord's record of events, the previous content is nothing, it is all some glorious deeds of the lord, until the end, the record reads: "... It is said that both churches have opened the advent channel, and the two gods have come to this continent, and they are fighting for control of this continent. I also want to attend this joint meeting of the Great Lords to discuss countermeasures, I think the situation is already very bad, fortunately I have already handed over the secret of Angel Tears to Fiati, Angel Tears, it should work, I hope she is safe. ”

Finally saw the news of Angel's Tears, this lord should be the scrap lord who left a record in the Oro Domain, and he went to the joint meeting.

However, before he could return, the situation had become very dire, and his territory was about to be affected, so he could probably only order his people and army to retreat to the place where the humans had gathered.

Since the others did not open the key to the treasure house in the Demon's Tears, the treasure has been stored until now, and after the war with the Protoss broke out, the Great Lord never had a chance to return to the territory. (To be continued...) )
