Chapter 257: Exploration and Discovery (Part II)

Erin had been standing in front of the bookcase for a long time, and if her eyes could shine, she would probably have lit up the room.

I don't know if it's because of the dry environment or other reasons, the rows of books in the bookcase are still well preserved, at least they can be turned normally without breaking. Just by looking at the name, you can roughly guess that some of these books are books on religion and polytheism in the age of faith, but there are also some elementary books on atheism and power theory, which are put together, and the buildings hidden in the underground caverns, the large-scale battles that have taken place, and the two skeletons in this room, some answers can be said to be forthcoming.

-- At the time of the rise of power theory, the so-called "unbelievers" and "blasphemers" hid like street rats on the mainland, because at that time, those who dared to preach the godlessness of the world were caught in any country, and they would only be burned to death. But even this could not stop the footsteps of these people, they began to go underground, or go deep into some dangerous areas around the continent that were hidden by the fog, and continued the process of exploring the truth and seeking the truth.

Without the efforts of these people, there would be no prosperity from the era of change to the era of development, and it is possible that until now, the use of power is still in the hands of a few people under theocracy, how can it be like now, ordinary people after a period of hard work and training may become adventurers, warriors, mages, and so on, these professionals who can use power.

This ruin may be a base for those untrustworthy people more than a thousand years ago, but unfortunately, it was discovered by a certain country and sent an army to kill the people inside, so that the entire base was completely annihilated at a certain point in time in this period of historical change.

However, this secret room was obviously not discovered at that time, and even latecomers like the mysterious man did not find it, so the contents were still very intact, giving Li Ang and these people an unexpected surprise.

The origin of these two lying and sitting bones is somewhat suspicious, and it can be guessed that one of them should be a captain of the Blessed Knights of the Holy Macedonian Empire, and the other is at least an official priest, and in the context of the times at that time, they must be staunch "believers in God", appearing in such a base, I don't know whether they were captured and imprisoned, or they were lured by the power theory and changed their identity...... It is estimated that no one knows except the parties themselves a thousand years ago.

It has to be said that Erin's words after combining her own opinions and speculation about the ruins were very attractive, and the other three people, including Melissa, listened with some fascination, and the young lord was even more moved by the fact that he had read a lot of such history books in his other memory, and said thoughtfully, " A small number of people in the age of faith had a monopoly on the use of power on the basis of theocracy, but they did not necessarily really believe in and worship God, and they may have only used it to maintain a fearful sense of mystery and maintain their rule. ”

The changemakers of the times have broken the original pattern and unshackled most people's minds, so those with vested interests are afraid, frightened, and angry, and they are eager to use a method to attack them, and want to nip this kind of thinking in the bud. ”

Erin's eyes began to light up, and she stared intently at the young man opposite, almost unable to believe that such words could come out of his mouth.

Li Ang immediately coughed, just now he couldn't help but synthesize the knowledge in his mind after hearing the other party's story, which also borrowed some words from others, so he always felt a little uncomfortable in the face of the girl's bright eyes, and quickly changed the topic.

"Erin, let's put these books away first, and when we go back, we will have time to study them. ”

This time, Erin didn't get to the bottom of the young lord's "special" watch, but gently closed the book and took a few steps back.

"Why?" said Leon, who thought he would put the books together as soon as possible.

"You are our lord, it was you who brought us here, and you discovered the underground secret room, of course these books belong to you, and if I want to read them, I will also ask you to borrow them. ”

After Erin said this, she turned around and walked out of the room.

Li Ang was stunned for a moment, he didn't know whether this cunning girl was retreating or really thinking so, but after a few seconds, he began to move, quickly swept away all the books in the bookcase, and then patted the dimensional bag, "Okay, if you want to read it in the future, just talk!"

At this point, this secret room has been explored, although in terms of the scale of the ruins, or in terms of the imagination of the young lord, this time the harvest seems to be a little small, but the whole trip to the ruins has been quite perfect, and these are not bad as icing on the cake, so thinking about it, Li Ang's mood immediately changed a lot.

However, the mage girl in the team has always looked a little depressed on the way home, and I don't know why I'm not very happy.

......

By the time he returned to the camp, Kaka had already returned, but to the surprise of the few people who had just returned, the alchemist was sitting next to a pile of equipment and boxes of all sizes, admiring them one by one.

"Mentor ......," Leon took a breath, "where did you get these things back?"

"Lao Tzu knew that the mysterious guy must have a nest in here, but he found it as soon as he went, and found these things he collected in the ruins, how about it?"

After finishing speaking, the alchemy master looked at the apprentice with a provocative gaze, and his expression was obviously telling the other party - "Lao Tzu is much better than you, isn't he?"

Leon stared blankly at the mountain of loot, as if he had been shocked.

Kaka was even more proud, picked up a bag, and said: "In addition to these harvests, the entire ruins have been fully surveyed by me, but unfortunately there are nothing too good together, there is a small step that is part of ordinary or intermediate magic items, of course, I also found three high-grade goods!"

Leon seemed to come to his senses, he nodded, and then picked up a pair of boots from the three high-end goods that Kaka had said with a strange expression.

"Mentor, did you find these boots? Amazing! And these boots look pretty good, just give them to me?"

"Good to say!" The alchemy master was finally able to show his good luck in front of this apprentice, so he was in a very comfortable mood at the moment, and waved his hand and said, "Take it!"

"Ah...... You're welcome to ......."

After saying this, the young apprentice slowly took out a few things from his dimensional bag and spread them out in front of the mentor one by one.

"I'm much worse in comparison, but I found a small secret room, and there are nothing too good in it, but there are a few things that can be matched with this pair of boots, and a holy emblem is also okay, but it's a pity that Sophia can't use it now. ”

"Small secret room?" The alchemy master watched the apprentice's movements suspiciously, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, "Why didn't I find out?"

Then he pulled out a long, thin-rimmed glasses and put them on - the "identification glasses" he had brought back from the City of Chaos, which could be used six times a day to identify unknown magical objects.

Soon, the alchemist's expression froze, and his body seemed to freeze, and then he watched the apprentice put these things back one by one.

It had been more than a minute for Leon to leave, and the roaring voice of the alchemist resounded through the camp.

"Stinky boy, get back for me! I'm so angry!"

......

At this moment, the stinky boy had already run to the traveler's hut and said to Caterina with a puzzled face: "It's okay, leave him alone, he's jealous of me." ”

Caterina sneered, quickly looked back at Sophia, who was half-asleep on the bed, and then gestured to Leon to make him quieter.

The young lord took the opportunity to hand the other party the "Bless Knights Suit" that had been gathered, looked back at the sleeping priest girl, stretched out his hand to help her pull the blonde hair covering her face behind her ears, and then pulled Caterina out quietly.

However, Leon's action of pulling her hair seemed to make Sophia feel it, although she was not fully awake, her body moved, and at the same time, her eyes opened unconsciously a few times, revealing a blank expression, and soon she saw the back of the man who was leaving, a reassuring smile appeared on her mouth, and then she turned over and closed her eyes again. For the rest of the day, a smile hung on her face, as if she was having a sweet and satisfying dream.

If someone had just been in front of her, perhaps they would have noticed a strange thing--when the girl blinked her eyes, one of them was completely dark in the pale blue pupils that had been like sea water, as thick and deep as the darkness of this underground space, but soon it returned to normal, as if it had never appeared at all.
