80_80872 Clean, tidy and empty, this is the first impression of Oflai's study to Hu Siming.

The area of this study is sixty or seventy square meters, but the real furnishings in it are almost useless except for a set of desks, a hanging painting, and a large dragon sculpture. Clusters of vines hung from the ceiling, from the top of the magic spire, reflecting the place as a world of greenery—at least it had been.

After thousands of years, the vines have long since died and withered, but they are still not weathered.

"This archmage named O'Flai is really very exquisite. ”

Yi Cheng liked the furnishings of his study, looked around with his hands behind his back, and gave a positive evaluation. Finally, the eldest lady still remembers the trap on the door, and she doesn't touch it lightly, but just admires it from afar.

Hu Siming also looked at the study, and his eyes finally fell on the desk.

A half-spread parchment notebook sat there, as if it had written something, alongside fluorescent grass ink and quills that had long since dried up. Seeing this, he walked up curiously and picked up the notebook, which had been torn out for more than a half.

The existing lingua franca of the aborigines evolved from the civilization of the Arcane Empire. Although it has passed for thousands of years, it has remained largely unchanged. Moreover, since the invasion of the New World, the academy has been excavating ancient ruins, and has long studied the writing of the Arcane Empire. Although Hu Siming didn't know him at all, he was still able to roughly understand the content of the notes by relying on the scum translation provided by the college.

.........

November 14th.

"I don't know why, but it's unsettling that the crazy moon in the sky has been getting brighter and redder lately. According to the news from the Arcane Council, some Arcanists believe that the Red Moon between the two moons will self-destruct on the night of the Dead Moon, that is, at midnight tomorrow, and the empire will collapse overnight, causing a cataclysm for the entire continent. How is this possible?"

"The glory of the arcane has been carried for 10,000 years, and it will never die because of a red moon!"

"However, perhaps it was really due to the influence of the Crazy Moon, a problem that had been bothering me for a long time was finally solved, and I was about to enter the final step. Once successful, I will be able to take the ordinary Flame Demon Dragon (Wurm Demonic Beast) into a real Red Dragon. The entire Oflet family will surely take advantage of this opportunity to advance by leaps and bounds and gain a seat in the Arcane Council!"

"May the splendor of the arcane bless me. ”

.........

November 15th.

"Today is the night of the Dead Moon mentioned in the Arcane Council, and as in the previous ten thousand years, the two silver moons in the sky have disappeared, leaving only the red Moon of Madness. It looks normal, but I don't know why, but I feel a bit of uneasiness, and the Flame Demon Dragon Tarn is also very anxious, could it be that there is still a problem with the potion that was injected into it today?"

"This probably shouldn't be a big deal! The research has been successful, and in a few weeks, Tarn will be able to transform into a real red dragon like his ancestors!"

"Arcane is above, what do I see? In the middle of the Mad Moon, a pitch-black crack appeared. God, is the Arcane Council's reasoning true?"

"I don't know exactly what's going on, but to be on the safe side, let my servants get out of here first. On the other side of the Cold Mist Valley, there is the most powerful defensive barrier in the entire southwest continent, which can withstand even the impact of meteorites. I'm going to continue to observe here for a while, the destruction of the empire, the catastrophe or something, it must be nonsense!"

"I can't believe it's real!"

.........

The remaining parchment notes contain only a few of them. In the beginning, the handwriting and behavior were extremely neat. Even if Hu Siming can't read it, he can feel the beauty of the words. But in the second half of November 15, it was very sloppy, and the last few paragraphs could be described as messy, and some of them were completely erased.

"Is it only two days old?"

Su Xishui came over and read the note three times, and obtained a lot of valuable information from this mutilated note. It seems that this is a record of the situation before the sudden collapse of the Arcane Empire. Moreover, it was not the same as the previous information excavated from the ruins, and the upper echelons of the Arcane Empire seemed to have expected it.

"November 15......"

Hu Siming's focus was elsewhere, and he was all too familiar with the date. After thinking for a few seconds, he suddenly slapped his thigh and suddenly said, "Isn't this the Dire Tide!"

The description "the two silver moons in the sky disappeared" proves this.

It turns out that during the time of the Arcane Empire, the night sky of the New World had three moons. Two rounds of the Silver Moon are gone, and there is one Moon of Madness. It wasn't until the night of the Night of the Dead Moon that the Moon of Mad shattered and spilled over the New World, and then there was the Dire Darktide......

Thinking about this clearly, Hu Siming has a sense of satisfaction in exploring the fog of history. After taking the notes and re-reading them, he found nothing more, so he turned his attention to the "Flame Dragon Tarn" mentioned in Ofrey's notes. It seems that Oflet is secretly carrying out a real yàn, spawning the wurm demon dragon into a real red dragon.

I don't know, did the mage of this arcane empire succeed in the end?

There is no follow-up to the parchment notes, and it is not known what the end of O'Flay is. Hu Siming thought about it, put this magically processed and well-preserved notebook into the storage compartment, and continued to search the study with the two senior sisters.

In the drawer of their desk, the trio found a dark blue crystal ball.

This crystal ball, about the size of a fist, contains incredible magical powers. Since the drawer itself has a separate storage space, it is isolated from the outside world, so even after thousands of years, the magic still retains a lot. Perhaps, this is O'Flai's spare spellcasting item.

Because the system of the Arcane Empire is not completely common to the academy, the three of them can't see the effect of this crystal ball for the time being. However, based on the props excavated from the ruins in the past, it is likely that after processing, it will become an accessory weapon for mage students, or at least one of the accessories for synthesis.

"I'm in luck!"

There was only one mage among the three people present, and he was undoubtedly carried away by Yi Cheng, and his two ponytails were cocked proudly.

Because there were not many things in the study, and it could even be said that it was clear at a glance, after investigating the desk, the three of them determined that there was no harvest here, and instead entered the alchemy room opposite the study. As an Arcanist with his own estate, strength, and status that doesn't seem to be low, it's all too normal to have an exclusive venue.

Compared to the well-organized study, the alchemy room is much more messy. Although some things seem to have been cleaned up, there are still a lot of herbs, ores, and other materials left. It's a pity that after thousands of years, these randomly placed things have basically come to an end. The few potions that had been refined were even unstable because they failed, and they exploded directly, and fragments were all over the ground.

After carefully scanning, Hu Siming raised his legs and stepped over these worthless things, and came to the only magic closet in the alchemy room.

The closet is equipped with a magic enchantment, and if you touch it, you will be counterattacked and warned. However, the entire manor has been abandoned for thousands of years, and Hu Siming has nothing to fear. After a few temptations, he smashed the barrier on the surface of the closet with confidence, and took out a delicately sealed potion box from inside.

In Libra's intelligence department, Hu Siming has seen this kind of potion box, and it can be excavated in many large ruins. During the Arcane Empire, Arcanists used these chests to preserve rare potions.

The potion crate was carefully opened.

In a neat row of jacks, only two bottles of potions remained. One of the bottles was a reddish-black, viscous liquid, unknown for what it was used for. The other bottle was hollow, containing only a drop of fiery red that resembled blood. Magically preserved, these two potions shine as brightly and seductively as they did thousands of years ago.

Hu Siming's dragon power seed was faintly agitated.

He was shocked, and carefully picked up the crystal bottle and looked at it: Could it be that this drop of blood is the legendary dragon's blood?

Because they are a product of the Arcane Empire, the properties of the two flasks are unknown. Although Hu Siming had a guess, he didn't dare to eat indiscriminately, so he could only put away the two potions first, and then ask the academy to identify them after returning to the academy before making a decision.

"It's not much!"

After searching them all, they only got these two bottles of elixir of unknown use, plus a crystal ball, which made the three of them somewhat disappointed. Oh yes, and a parchment notebook that contains a lot of information, but doesn't actually have eggs.

If you want to make a fortune by excavating ancient ruins, it is really not very reliable.

"Let's go. ”

After all, it was an unexpected encounter on the way back, and it is better to have something to gain than nothing at all. The three of them checked it one last time, made sure that nothing was missed, and left the empty manor, preparing to leave the relic space.

It is extremely difficult to enter such a random ruin, and many students do not encounter it once in a few years, but it is easy to leave. Most of the ruins, in the opposite direction of the entrance passage, have an exit from the exit. Although the location of this exit is also random, in general, it does not deviate too far from the entrance.

With one step, the weightlessness of time and space changes reappears. By the time they put their feet on the ground, the three of them had returned to the new world, bathed in the night.

The old manor, which had been forgotten in time, seemed to be just an illusion of the three of them, and it never existed.

Comparing the map in the school emblem of Tong Guò, their current location, deviated from the valley at the entrance for nearly fifty miles. Fortunately, the direction of the deviation was closer to the academy's side, which saved the three of them from running a little longer.

Although I was very worried about the harvest in the ruins, it was not easy to travel to the New World. The three of them continued their pre-assignments until the time of their stay was exhausted, and then they returned to the academy, and then they couldn't wait to start the appraisal
