Chapter 85: The Secret of the Simulacrum!
Ivo felt that he must have hallucinated, and the soul of an epic character from a thousand years ago coincidentally appeared on this occasion, unexpectedly.
Abel looked surprised, he didn't expect to be recognized.
Ivo had seen Abel in the Battlefield of Memory, and he was the only one who could recognize Abel to his face.
Ivo and Abel stared wide-eyed.
Nafei opened her mouth slightly, and her stunned expression made her elegant face look a little stupid.
Demacia exclaimed in his head, "What a guy!"
Ivo didn't expect to see an "acquaintance", so he calmed down and paid more attention to what Abel said, and hurriedly asked, "You said that the group of Templars could return to the Overworld?"
Abel didn't answer the question, and sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that someone would recognize me after a thousand years." ”
Ivo said anxiously: "Please answer my question, it is important to me. ”
"Sandhiti...... You know that the ruins are called Sandhiti, right?" Abel saw Ivo nodding and continued: "The Sandhiti ruins are located in an enclosed secondary space, and to enter and exit the ruins, you need to pass through this mutilated space attached to Sandhiti, and this is the only way to get in and out of Sandhiti - you also passed here when you entered the ruins, but you were all unconscious at the time, and I watched you fly over with my own eyes. The brass disc in your hand is a pass into the mutilated space, but some teleportation magic can also tear through the barrier and return to the Overworld, unfortunately I see that they have spatial magic scrolls. ”
"How do you know?"
"The mutilated space is both the entrance and exit of Sandhiti and the core of keeping Sandhiti running, otherwise where do you think the energy to activate the ruins comes from?" Abel pointed to the black spear stuck in the straight of the bridge, "This is the core that provides energy." ”
Ivo took a closer look, felt familiar, and blurted out, "This is your weapon!"
Abel exclaimed, "You even know this?!" He looked at the black spear, a little sad, "This is my old buddy, accompanied me to defeat tens of thousands of strong enemies, my enemies call it 'Metos', this is the abyssal language for 'killing', some people call it 'red spear', that group of monsters brought it out, sealed it with secret locks, for hundreds of years." ”
Ivo was so confused, like why Abel was here, but he still thought about the most important question: "Do you know if there is any way to stop the people in the ruins from leaving?"
"My old buddy Metos is the core of stabilizing the broken space, and the source of Sandeshiti's energy, as long as you can control the spear, you can close the broken space, even if they have teleportation scrolls, they can't break the spatial barrier. ”
But Murtos was sealed in a secret lock, and no one could get close to him.
Ivo mused, "Abel, what is the key to this secret lock, and how do I control Methos?"
Abel suddenly snorted coldly: "I'm talking to you so much, just because I'm too boring, but I don't have the need to help you." ”
Ivo said in a deep voice, "Whatever you ask for, you can make a deal. ”
Abel laughed, "I don't need your help. ”
"Really?" Ivo was assured, "Did you stay here of your own free will?"
Abel's face changed slightly.
However, Abel immediately didn't care and said: "It's true that I'm trapped here, but if you want to help me, you are not qualified enough now." ”
"You can help me first, and I'll do my best to get you out later. Ivo said in a deep voice.
"No, you're wrong," Abel said lightly: "You can only help you if you save me first, Methos and I are trapped in the secret lock, and you can only contact Methos if you open the secret lock first." I know what the key to the secret lock is, but you can't have it, and I don't have one, or I'd have been out of trouble. ”
Ivo was stunned, this is a dead knot, and if he can't open the secret lock, then everything will be put to rest, and he asked without giving up, "What is the key?"
Abel didn't hold out any hope at all, "The blood of the monster." ”
"What monster?"
Abel glared: "I want to know what that thing is, and I will call it a monster?"
Ivo was speechless.
"Those monsters are the ones who dug Methos out of my mausoleum, and my soul is attached to Methos, and I still don't understand why those mutating creatures were able to find my grave," Abel complained, "Those monsters are very strong, they used Methos to build this broken space, and Sandhiti was also moved from Abraham by them, and the three treasure houses in the ruins were built by them, and I saw all this." ”
Ivo finally figured out a few doubts, and couldn't help but ask, "What are the characteristics of those monsters?"
"Didn't I say it, they come and go, damn they only have this one thing in common. Abel's tone was rather impatient.
Ivo's heart pounded suddenly, changing from one thing to another? wouldn't it......
Ivo swallowed, carefully cut open his palm, and gently pressed it on Methos's secret lock circle, Abel was talking to himself complaining, suddenly felt light, looked down, the secret lock circle quickly dissipated, and the cage that had plagued him for hundreds of years suddenly disappeared when he was completely hopeless, which made him instantly in a trance, as if in a dream.
Abel was stunned and looked at Ivo sharply: "Are you ......?"
Ivo hurriedly shouted, interrupting Abel's words, he turned around and picked up Nafi, who was still in a state of confusion, and spoke quickly: "Nafei, you get out of here first, I'm going to stay and consume this group of people to death." ”
"But they are the Holy See, not enemies......," Nafi snapped, as Ivo had been missing out on the Templars by mistake and had not engaged in any fighting in front of Nafi, so in Nafi's mind, the Night's Watch and Ivo were not enemies.
Ivo's mind turned, and the reason came as soon as he opened his mouth: "They found Augusta's body, misunderstood me as a murderer, and almost killed me, if I let them go, I will be in great trouble, and the Holy See will definitely do everything to hunt me down." ”
Nafi was startled, she believed that Ivo's life was hers, although she was not disgusted with the Holy See, but after all, she was a stranger, and when it came to her life, she understood how to choose, and said worriedly: "Can you do it? Don't die, and don't let any of the Night's Watch go, if this misunderstanding expands and attracts the Holy See to chase and kill with all its might, you will die." ”
"Don't worry, I won't die. ”
With the force of his arms, Ivo pushed Nafi through the swirling space exit.
After Nafi vanished, the exit closed, Midnight Overworld time passed, Day of the Dead passed, and the dark golden gate at the entrance to Sandhiti closed.
Unless a brass disc or teleportation scroll is used, the ruins will not be opened until next year's Day of the Dead.
Ivo turned to face Abel with a very serious expression: "Abel, please tell me, why did the mimetic do these things?"
"Mimics, that's the name of those monsters," Abel said with interest, gesturing at Ivo, "You can open the lock, and it seems that you are one of those monsters." ”
Ivo nodded heavily, his mind was now in a mess, and his doubts surfaced one after another like bubbles in boiling water, and asked, "When did they do all this?"
"It's too long for me to remember," Abel said, "but it was about four hundred years ago." ”
Four hundred years ago...... It is now 334 years of the Glory Calendar, and 400 years ago it was only 200 years of divine grace.
And the mimic became independent in 467 in the dark night age, was cursed by the three bloodlines planted in 480, and was sealed in the cold night mountain range in 483, so the time point to create the ruin space was during the mimicry feud, and the time was not right at all!
What happened during that time, and why did the Cold Valley Tribe come out again?
Or is there a second possibility, could it be that there are mimics left out? The Cold Valley tribe is not the only surviving mimes?
What is the purpose of the ruins? Is it just to store the three treasures, or is there some other purpose?
If everything was done by the ancestors of the Cold Valley Tribe, what did they want?
Ivo's head was a mess, full of mysteries, and he knew too little information to guess anything.
Abel interrupted Ivo's thoughts, and said, "You let me out of trouble, and in return, I will help you control Methos, the only old man in this world who knows me best." ”
Ivo kept all his doubts to himself for the time being, and set out to solve the dilemma in front of him, and the trapping and killing of the Templars was his most important task at the moment.
Abel instructed: "Metus is a special weapon, cast with Stepanbada's unique process, the material is a black metal extracted from the abyss, almost the toughest material in the world, we call it the 'Satanic Skull', Styenbada process gives Metus two special effects for killing, in addition, there are three powerful enchantments on Metos, a total of five special effects." Murtos is a spiritual weapon, I used it to kill tens of thousands of strong enemies, condensed countless resentment and hatred, hold it will hear the whispers of the unjust soul, only those who can survive the impact of Mertos's will, only have the initial qualification to use it. ”
Ivo felt a palpitation just by standing next to Methos, and after the secret lock was lifted, the cold aura of the spear emanated unscrupulously, making him feel cold from the bottom of his heart, as if Methos had changed from a dead thing to a terrible beast, and now this beast was staring at Ivo with bloodthirsty eyes.
Ivo took a deep breath and slammed his grip on Methos.
The scene in front of Ivo's eyes changed suddenly, and he was in a sea of corpses and blood, and the blood-red tide was overwhelming, and thousands of unjust souls were circling around him, and the wails of the unjust souls echoed in Ivo's mind like a tragic and eerie sonata.
The sharp teeth of the unjust soul gnawed frantically on him, and the sharp pain spread from his heart to his whole body, as if he had been hurt by Ling Chi.
Ivo let out a cry and let go of his hands like an electric shock, and the illusion vanished instantly, and he breathed wildly, like a fish thrown onto the shore.
"It's, it's scary. Ivo's lips quivered.
"You must pass the will test to be qualified to hold Metos, and this is only the first step in mastering it," Abel had anticipated this situation, and he reached out and flicked his spear, triggering the function that was the core of the ruins, and a light curtain appeared in front of Ivo, the light curtain showed the view of the ruins, and the perspective followed the Templars, showing Norrington charging the shuttle scrolls.
Able said, "I have to warn you that your enemies will soon be able to use the teleportation scroll, and if you don't have a preliminary control of Methos, I'm afraid you'll have to face them in the mutilated space." ”
Ivo gritted his teeth and grabbed at Murtos again, and the illusion reappeared.
"Ahh
Again and again, the screams continued.
