032, the ribs of the gods (below)
There was a clanging sound everywhere, and the staffs, weapons, and armor fell to the ground, and some of the broken pieces of armor fell to the ground and then shattered into several pieces, looking like they had long since decayed. Everyone's bodies vanished, turning into ashes or smoke, including Bell and Ni Onion, who were hugging each other on the high platform, and Amon didn't see their faces clearly.
Thirty years ago, when the incomparably powerful latter blow hit, including Bell, a ninth-level great magician, people's lives were terminated in an instant, and finally a force fixed the space and froze this scene for thirty years. But everyone had long since been reduced to ashes by the burst of power, and even the armor that was not strong enough was torn and decayed.
Amun, who was the first to come here thirty years later, suddenly disturbed all this, like opening a fast-moving hourglass of time, and the freeze-frame scene disappeared in an instant, becoming what it was supposed to be!
I can't describe Amon's mood anymore, and I can't care about being surprised if I'm shocked too much, so I can only try to hold my mind and pant and look at everything here carefully. The golden tear of the gods did not land with the staff, it still hung high in the air, and the golden light quietly shone on the hollow of the mountain. Amon closed his eyes and used the puppet eye technique to sense it, and as expected, the puppet eye technique could not see the existence of this divine stone, as if it belonged to another dimension.
On the high platform in the middle of the cave, Amon picked a crescent-shaped lotus petal crown, which was beautifully crafted in gold, which was the hair ornament of the Holy Maiden and one of her status symbols. There is also a set of broken armor, the material is horse leather steel, but there is a strange layer of silver metal on the surface, and it is also engraved with divine inscriptions and the patterns of some divine magic arrays, which is obviously not ordinary armor, but it has been very damaged in the fierce battle.
There was a long sword next to the armor, Amon had actually seen it, Gabriel's saber was exactly the same as it, the silver sword body was sharp and tough, and there was a divine stone inlaid in the center of each side of the sword. The sword was actually intact, indicating that Bell hadn't experienced much hand-to-hand combat before escaping here.
Next to the sword was the staff of the Holy Maiden, but the Tears of the Gods were no longer on it. Amon picked up the staff and reached out to touch the four special divine stones on the golden ring, but the divine stones fell off at the touch and immediately turned into pieces in his hands. Bell's final blow was so powerful that even the four special divine stones were destroyed together, and then the staff was shattered into several pieces.
Amon stood under the tears of the gods that hung in the void and radiated golden light, and when he looked up, he saw the deepest stone wall of the cave carved with words, both cursive and sword, the first of which was to explain the writing of the two gods and the specific rules of interpretation. These must have been left behind by Bell, who was a deviant magician who had carved what he had learned in the temple here.
At the end of this explanation, Bell specifically notes that all the texts on magic he have seen are written in divine script, and that the scrolls must be written in divine script, because there are specific symbolic requirements to infuse various specific mana. The next paragraph of text should be the content that the old madman was most concerned about when he was alive, and I saw Bell write-
The gods above have hidden a secret, that is, all the people in the world can become beings like them, and although the road is extremely difficult, it is not without the other side of eternal life. I have found the beginning of this path, but unfortunately I can't finally confirm it, leaving everything I know in the tears of the gods, which can be opened with the ribs of the gods.
On the way to escape, I left Osiris's rib in the mountains, and whoever wants to get this secret must pass my test and find it in order to easily penetrate the last barrier I have set up, and come here to collect the Tears of the Gods, and if you forcibly take the Tears of the Gods, you will not see the message I have left.
Dear teacher, if you are the one who came here, you don't need to find Osiris's ribs, you can directly use your token to inspire the tears of the gods and see the magical information sealed on it. I have not thought through the mysteries of my exploration, so I have not communicated them to you, and the test I have left is for those who have strayed into this place.
At the end of the message, it is written in sacred script how to use Osiris's rib, which is said to be a sacred object enshrined in the temple of Isis. Osiris was the father of the god-king Horus and the brother and husband of the Virgin Isis, who was worshipped by the Eju. Will the eternal gods also fall, and leave behind the remains of a rib? This holy relic was secretly kept and never disclosed to the outside world, but it was stolen by Bell.
Bell doesn't explain much about the origin of the rib, only writing his conclusions about the rib, which are roughly the same as those that Amon pondered. It has the function of a standard divine stone but has no difference in caste, and can almost be regarded as a universal special divine stone, which can be used as a staff but cannot be inlaid.
On the other hand, it is also a space magic weapon, which can be called an artifact, which is activated and controlled by mid-level divine power, and it can be used as a loading and transportation vehicle, just like a big ship sailing on the Nile. The minimum requirement in theory is that the user must be at least a third-level magician who can cultivate a mid-level divine art, but this is only a theory, and I am afraid that no third-level divine magician can really indulge it.
If you use the power of high-level magic to stimulate and control it, it can even be used as a flying artifact, and theoretically the minimum user is a sixth-level magician, but in fact, I am afraid that no sixth-level magician is really capable of indulging.
Bell, who left these explanations, probably didn't expect that a third-level magician would appear today, holding a magic staff made by an old madman, and taking advantage of the flood to directly enter the belly of this mountain, otherwise Amon really wouldn't have had a chance to reach here.
The most amazing thing about this rib, Amon only knew after seeing Bell's message that it could also be used directly as a spatial artifact, just like the magic space created by the great magician with the charm of the wind. The Wind Charm Dance that the old madman gave to Amon had already been made into a magic space, but it was impossible to use it until Amon had learned to use a high-level magic space.
This rib also needs to master high-level spatial magic before it can be used, then it should be at least a sixth-level divine magician, and a great divine magician who is proficient in spatial divine art is better. But the theoretical minimum requirement, a third-level magician can stimulate it, Bell left the way to excitation, but said that this is only a theoretical requirement, and the magician with too low achievements can't actually use it at all, and he didn't explain more.
Bell's message on the stone wall ends here, and there is a paragraph of handwriting at the back, which is written in cursive script, and Amon can only understand it thoroughly according to the explanation of the rules of the divine script left by Bell, and this text should be left by the Holy Maiden Nionon-
"The great goddess Isis, the deity whom I have revered all my life, I hope that your radiance will appease the wrath of the pharaoh, and I have voluntarily followed Bell away, and I dare not ask for your salvation. Bell is a fire that burns in the sky, and I know that sooner or later he will destroy himself, and I just want to prevent more disasters. Pardon me, at the same time, for my curiosity about the gods, which comes from the unhesitating reverence of my life. I didn't turn my back on you, I just want to know more about you, I wonder if this snooping is offensive......"
The message doesn't seem to be finished, and the last few words are quite scribbled, and it seems that it was interrupted as soon as it was written, and the pursuers have already followed, and then the big battle began.
One detail that surprised Amon was that Bell's message didn't mention Schrödinger at all. The old madman had gone out of his way to tell Amon that Bell had not only taken the saint and her staff, but also stole a holy relic and a cat, which the temple of Isis had secretly ordered to find. The relic was Osiris's ribs, and the cat's origin was unknown.
Bell sealed the message in the token and hung it around Schrödinger's neck, telling him to send it to Duk to find the old madman. Theoretically, the old madman could get Bell's message with or without the ribs, but Schrödinger never brought the old madman to this place for thirty years.
It wasn't until today that Schrödinger first led Amon to find the ribs of the relic, and guided Amun to turn the ribs into an invisible ship through the flood, and then he arrived here. With Amon's ability, he wanted to reach this place, this was indeed his only chance, otherwise he would not be able to come with a token, and even if he came, he would not be able to pass through the illusory mountain wall and enter the belly of the mountain.
All this can only be said to be Schrödinger's choice, which has waited so many years to guide Amun here, and is not willing to pay attention to the old madman at all. Why did this cat do this? and waited thirty years for it! Amon could not have known. At this time, he stood on the high platform and took out the token engraved with emblems on both sides, and used his mana to arouse the tears of the gods hanging in the air, and sure enough, he saw that there was a change.
In the golden light that shone on the entire mountainside, a huge light curtain spread out like a light veil, and dazzling golden words appeared in the light curtain, like a waterfall flowing with divine scripts pouring down from the void, and the secret of becoming a god was written on it.
