Chapter 349: The Tomb of the Black Emperor Nidhogg
Lu Mingfei was silent for a long time, just sitting quietly on the bronze throne, Lu Mingze also continued to rub his shoulders, and neither of them spoke again, maintaining this calm.
"You know what? Actually, I used to wonder what I was. ”
"Norton, the king of bronze and fire, is my former friend Don, heh, I was still wondering why this guy was not online when he died, and I thought he was too busy with work. Unexpectedly, he was the king of bronze and fire...... Norton" Lu Mingfei smiled bitterly, "The first generation will be hidden among humans before they completely awaken, just like Old Tang and that Inuit girl Snow, they didn't know their identity when they were still humans, they just regarded themselves as human beings with feelings and flesh and blood, not brutal dragons." I often wonder if I'm going to be the first generation too. ”
"I know, what my brother is thinking, as a younger brother, I know everything." Lu Mingze patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, "But what is the first generation?" That kind of thing can't compare to your dignity at all. ”
"I don't know how mysterious my identity is, but I don't feel a little relieved until all the first races have fully awakened, except for Natsumi and Fenrir, all the other first races have died, even the White King is dead. But it wasn't until yesterday that I suddenly thought of a possibility......"
"When I first entered the Academy, I was not under the influence of the Emperor of the Spirit, and at that time, Mentor Guderian, Professor Manstein, and Professor Schneider all thought that I might be of the White King's blood, and I had awakened the spirit called "Don't Die", so the Academy didn't pay much attention to it. But now that I think about it, when I fought with the White King that Tachibana Masamune had evolved, I wasn't absolutely suppressed by the White King bloodline in my body like Uncle Uesugi, Gen Zhisheng, Gen Zhinu, and Eri Yi, and even my heart swelled with happiness, so I can conclude that I am definitely not a White King bloodline. ”
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, as if he had walked in front of a curtain that covered the ultimate secret of the world, and let out a long breath, he lifted the curtain.
"It's not the first generation, it's not the white king's bloodline, but it has a stronger power than the first generation, and it can not be affected by the Spirit Emperor, so the greatest possibility...... Will I ......"
"No!"
Lu Mingze rudely interrupted Lu Mingfei's words, with anger in his golden eyes: "That's just a damn guy, you're definitely not that kind of damn guy!" ”
"What is Nidhogg in front of you! You are the ultimate in the world! You are the monster who is qualified to roar the world! When you roar, the kings, even Nidhogg and Yinshanami, will only bow down! ”
The devilish roar echoed in the palace and reached Lu Mingfei's ears.
"I can't think of any dragons in the dragon clan, maybe there is an eleventh special dragon king?" Lu Mingfei shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Forget it, at least now I am still Lu Mingfei, your brother, and the dead house." ”
"Where's that? Dragon Palace in the East China Sea? ”
"The Dragon Palace is the Dragon Palace, but it's not at the bottom of the sea, and you've been sitting for so long and going out with me?"
The two of them, one older and one younger, walked side by side through this lonely palace, and the melodious wind chimes echoed in their ears. When passing by the circular pool in the center of the main hall, Lu Mingfei looked down curiously, the pool was bottomless, the water in the pool was blue, and the water in the pool was slowly rotating, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but take a second look.
Lu Mingze said: "This is an alchemy matrix, and it can generate the realm that guards this hall. Any intruder will cause the pool to boil. I won't explain the specific principle to you, and you won't be able to understand it anyway. ”
"What's the drop, look down on the scumbag?" Lu Mingfei was indignant.
Lu Mingze glanced at Lu Mingfei: "In the primeval era, dragons would build an alchemy matrix by digging an underground river in the foundation, and then pour a metal solution into it. It was a solution made of dead mercury dissolved dead gold, copper, and gray tin, and it was also this brilliant blue color, and this metallic solution circulated in the underground river, driving the vast alchemical matrix. If we think of the alchemical matrix as a person, the liquid that drives it is like its blood. The alchemy matrix is actually a kind of life, an alchemical life created by dragons with alchemy. ”
"The Alchemy Matrix is actually alive? Doesn't that mean that the Kassel Academy is built on a life? ”
"Yes, although it will be difficult for you to understand, the Alchemy Matrix has indeed moved away from the category of 'machinery' or 'equipment' and has 'life' in a sense. In fact, this technique was not so rare in ancient civilizations, and it was recorded in the "Historical Records" that Qin Shi Huang's tomb had dug a miniature river channel, carved stars on the top wall, and used mercury as the flowing water of the river, and the sun and moon traveled through the Tianjiang River, day by day, and the emperor's coffin was placed in the center of this miniature heaven and earth, as if he was still alive and still ruling the world. It wasn't a decoration, it was an alchemical matrix to protect the tomb. There is no other technology in the world other than the Alchemy Matrix that can build that kind of tomb, where mercury flows incessantly for thousands of years, freeing up the unseen realm and killing all intruders. It doesn't need external power to drive it, because it's alive. Lu Mingze pondered for a while and replied, "As for your academy...... You're right. The alchemy matrix in your academy is indeed well built, but it is still far from this one, and it can't even compare with the alchemy matrix in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. ”
Lu Mingfei recalled what he saw when he read the mission report of Qutang Gorge in Ange's office, and asked, "So, in the bronze city below Qutang Gorge, there should also be an alchemy matrix?" But why didn't Ye Sheng and Jiude Aki encounter any dangerous defense facilities except for the ever-changing labyrinth and the alchemy maze? ”
"It does exist, and although the effect and scale are very different from the alchemy matrix here, that bronze city is actually a heavily armed fortress. It's just that the group of half-breed generals and those dragon slaying families under Liu Xiu's command back then were too fierce, causing almost all of the defenses of Bronze City to be damaged, otherwise it would not have fallen into the hands of humans, and Norton and Constantine would not have been forced to die with them with the Spirit Candle Dragon. ”
Lu Mingze led Lu Mingfei to the end of the main hall, where there was a wide staircase. Lu Mingfei looked up and glanced into the distance, slightly stunned. He remembered that when he climbed the Yellow Mountain with his uncle and aunt in junior high school, he was shocked to feel weak in front of the long ladder called "A Line of Sky" in the Yellow Mountain. When climbing that line, the little fat man Lu Wuze was so tired that he was panting, the fat all over his body was trembling, and he hung the kettle and backpack on Lu Mingfei, and even his uncle and aunt were a little weak.
The staircase looked much longer than the one in the sky, and it had been carved into a cavern, straight up, and the end of it disappeared in a faint light. Lu Mingfei realized that this magnificent bronze palace was actually built deep underground, and everyone who wanted to enter and exit this palace had to pass through this ladder.
Following Lu Mingze up this long staircase, just after walking more than a dozen steps, Lu Mingfei glanced at the somewhat small buildings below, and suddenly felt a little dizzy. It's also funny to say that he, a person who has transformed into a three-time transformation and flew in the sky to fight against the dragons, is still afraid of heights.
"Brother, don't be intimidated by its length and height, it's just an illusion created by optics, in fact, this staircase is not as long as it seems, and the position we are in is not that high." Lu Mingze took Lu Mingfei's hand and said with a smile, "Come, follow me, we will reach the ground soon." ”
Hearing Lu Mingze's words, Lu Mingfei was also a little relieved, if he didn't even believe Lu Mingze, then how many people in this world could he believe?
Looking at the scene under his feet, Lu Mingfei was no longer afraid, and asked Lu Mingze on the side, "How boring are the people who built this palace?" What are you trying to do with this kind of tricks? ”
"It's a labyrinth. It looks like a straight staircase without any forks, but this is still an illusion caused by light, this staircase is actually twisted like a spider web, and there are forks in the road, you feel like you are moving forward, but in fact, you have unconsciously followed the staircase to turn, as long as you take a wrong step, you will go to the road of death. Lu Mingze still smiled like that, "Palaces built with dragon technology are like this, full of labyrinths, and there are countless kinds of life-killing traps in the labyrinth, which you should have seen when you read the Bronze City mission report." ”
Lu Mingfei looked left and right, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. But he felt that he was just climbing the stairs under the light of the light, and he couldn't even see the rock wall very clearly, and he didn't feel that he was taking a detour, but went straight forward step by step.
Lu Mingfei shouted: "I don't feel any forks in the road at all, aren't you kidding me?" ”
"Alas, my silly brother, have you forgotten that you played 'Indiana Jones' with your parents at Universal Studios when you were a kid?"
Lu Mingfei lowered his head and pondered, recalling his memories when he was a child, "I have a little impression, I remember that it seems to be a labyrinth carved out of a hill, but the ground of the maze is sloping, sometimes downhill, sometimes uphill, there will be left and right, but I don't feel anything." I remember there was a three-way crossing, and I chose the road according to the map that was given out, but my parents said it was the wrong way, and I was still holding on for a while, until I heard the people who walked into the tunnel being hidden inside, wearing black cloaks and white fangs, screaming and fleeing in fright. ”
"Yes, people in the tunnel always instinctively think that the road surface is level, and the slightest incline can make the visitor misjudge, although they are given a map before entering the maze, but when they pass a sloping road to the three-way junction, they can't even tell the difference between left and right. More than half of the people will take the wrong route, but this staircase is much more confusing than the rudimentary labyrinth, let me show you. ”
Lu Mingze said, took out a glass test tube from his pocket, which contained a silver liquid, pointed to the stairs and said to Lu Mingfei: "Look, this is mercury, the heaviest liquid in the world." If we sprinkle it on sloping ground, it will definitely flow low. Now you look at the foot, do you think the steps we are stepping on are horizontal? ”
Lu Mingfei glanced down and shook his head: "How is this possible, we have been climbing the stairs all the time." ”
Lu Mingze smiled and sprinkled a drop of mercury on the stairs, and at this time, something unbelievable happened, the mercury droplets were lying quietly like this, barely rolling at all.
"This section of stairs is actually horizontal, and the real slope has not yet arrived, but your senses are deceived by this maze, you think you are climbing the stairs, and you even feel your legs sore and tired." Lu Mingze said, "This is still the most basic trick of this maze, the fog here can bend light, just like light is transmitted in optical fibers, and the route can be curved." In short, this is a trap made with engineering and optics, and you have to follow certain rules, otherwise you will stray into those fatal forks in the road. ”
The more Lu Mingfei listened, the more frightened he became, The mission report submitted by Ye Sheng and Jiu De Yaji was a must-read for every member of the Dragon Slaying Squad, and the Bronze City Labyrinth recorded in it was not as dangerous as Lu Mingze said in front of him.
"What the hell is this place?"
"The Mausoleum of the Black Emperor Nidhogg."
"Who?" Lu Mingfei was stunned.
"The Black Emperor of Mankind, the Tomb of Nidhogg."
Lu Mingfei looked at this lofty ancient palace in disbelief, from the dome to the ground, every inch of space here was carefully carved and decorated, all the great emperors in history should have hoped for such a palace to be powerful, but the actual use of this place was only the mausoleum of Nidhogg. And Nidhogg even had such a lavish mausoleum that she couldn't imagine how poor and luxurious she must have lived while she was still alive.
"No, I remember in the Genealogy of the Dragons, it was said, 'The man who killed him placed his huge body on the top of the mountain, his wings hanging down to the foot of the mountain, his blood flowing down like magma, staining the whole mountain red, melting the snow and ice, and carrying the blood-colored water vapor up to the sky, turning into dark red clouds, raining bright red, and the people who killed him bathed in the rain and cheered', where did Nidhogg come from?"
"This is where Nidhogg's eggs once were."
