033 Journal of a dwarf researcher
The king nodded in agreement with Flint's statement: "Let's go underground, how can we take the lizardmen for revenge and think about it later." ”
As he spoke, he turned to Liguang and said, "You command your compatriots to fortify on the ground, and if there are still enemy squads that have left the ruins to go out on duty, if they come back, they will catch them!" We also need to torture these people for information on the Order. ”
Liguang: "Leave it to me." ”
The king was about to leave, when he suddenly turned back: "Bury the dead, no matter whether you are or you are the enemy...... Well, we have no dead people, and we bury the dead of our enemies, who, though they are bad people, deserve to be buried. ”
Liguang: "I see. ”
A lizardman shouted, "Why do you bury these bad guys?" We should pile up their corpses into a Kyoto view! ”
Wang: "Don't make us more like an evil squad. ”
Xiaobai: "Yes, after all, we already have an evil captain and an evil drow elf. ”
Liguang: "The Dragon God Envoy has already said so!" Just do the order honestly. ”
Wang: "Also, Liguang, you take this." ”
Saying that, the king took out the sound transmission stone taken from Monrovia from the dimensional bag: "If we need combat power, we can use this call, you and the team will come down quickly." ”
"Understood." The warrior monk replied so simply.

There is a perpetual lighting underneath the ruins, which makes the king's glowing rod meaningless.
But the king still let the dragon's head glow and act as a light source around him—so that he would not be caught off guard if the light source of the ruins was suddenly cut off.
He followed the map and led the team into the Ruins Research Department.
As soon as they entered the relics research department, everyone saw a complete set of tea sets.
Elizabeth was speechless: "This is a full set of Walmer tea sets, which can be used to drink Walmer Assarbang's black tea, which is a rare commodity sent from the other side of the world's mountains." Our family occupies the end of the shield road, and that's all we can get. ”
Wang stepped forward and picked up the cup in the tea set and studied it carefully: "It looks quite exquisite." Doesn't this relics research department usually do things and just drink tea? ”
Flint: "The captives say they've been making little progress, and they're just drinking tea. ”
Xiaobai snorted: "Wait a minute, it smells like cake!" ”
As he spoke, Xiaobai rushed to a cabinet and opened the cabinet door with a bang.
Sure enough, there was a cake inside.
Xiaobai scooped a spoonful of cream from the cake with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth: "Well, fresh cream!" This cake was just made this morning, and we can share it! ”
Wang: "Drinking tea and eating cake, or on the morning when the enemy is about to attack, the Ruins Research Department is having a very nourishing life." ”
Flint: "But...... What about them? ”
Everyone looked at each other.
Wang: "Marika, scout the movement of people in this room. ”
Marika: "I've scouted, and there were about ten living people here in the morning, but soon they all left, and at the gate they joined the rest of the colony. ”
Wang: "I left because of the order to retreat...... Look for research materials, focusing on the cross-sectional or three-dimensional view of the ruins below. ”
The group immediately searched for it, and soon Wang himself found a thick notebook.
He flipped through it and found it to be a diary.
He silently recited:
"What the hell......"
**
Hell, this goddamn relic has its secrets written on its face, and we can't find a way to solve the puzzle.
This is the fifty-fifth time that the central gate of the ruins has failed. We've tried fifty-five ways to study every pattern on the gate, but nothing has happened!
The only thing we know for sure is that this place is supposed to be a relic of the Cyclops Empire.
But strangely, in the first period of the existence of the Cyclops Empire, this was supposed to be a desert like Catala, but with the climate change, it gradually became a swampy river country.
At the time of the Second Human Empire, there were not so many swamps here, and the climate had just cooled down.
The strange point is here, when we explore the ruins, the plant fossils found in the cracks of the stone walls of the ruins, which are incompatible with the desert environment around the site at that time.
Combined with the rumors of the Cyclops Empire's wonderful technology, I naturally came up with a new idea: this was supposed to be a floating city, and the Cyclops Empire likes to use the floating city as an air fortress with enough troops stationed on it.
In this way, in the event of an incident, the Floating City can immediately go to the disputed area and lower the army to quell the incident.
And the plants brought on the floating city are naturally the seeds brought by the floating city when it was built. However, my thoughts were withheld by the Minister of Research.
He felt that a report on the study of plant fossils, such a pediatric thing, would be scolded by the headquarters if it was sent to the headquarters.
I'll admit that it's a bit arbitrary to conclude that this ruins were originally a floating city based on plant specimens alone.
But after the idea was born, it lingered in my head.
The Cyclops Empire of the First Age, although everyone is rumored to have the technology to create the Floating City, and although the Arcane Federation still retains the knowledge of the "Mountain Cutting Technique" used by the Cyclops Empire to create the Floating City, but-
After all, there is not a single relic in the world that can prove that the cyclops does indeed have a floating city.
Even the wreckage was not found.
According to the legend of the First Age, after the collapse of the Cyclops Empire, all the floating cities fell from the sky at once, and since this is the case, it should be possible to find a lot of floating city remains on the ground.
But there is no such thing.
Like many of the masterpieces of the Cyclops Empire, the Floating City disappeared all at once, never to be seen in history again.
One can't help but wonder if these things really existed, and whether they might just be legends made up by later generations.
However, I'm pretty sure that we now live in the floating cities of a Cyclops Empire - it turns out that those floating cities did not fall, but landed on the ground and became the remains of the ground.
No wonder everyone searched everywhere and couldn't find the wreckage.
This discovery will surely shock the Explorers Guild -
**
When the king read this, he suddenly stopped: "Wait a minute! ”
The people who had gathered around to listen to him all cast puzzled glances at him.
Wang: "This is the mention of the Shock Explorers Guild...... Could it be that the person who wrote this diary was a dwarf? ”
Elizabeth asked puzzledly, "Why do you think it's a dwarf when you mention the Explorers' Guild?" At the beginning of our journey, didn't the Emperor also make up a lie about the Explorers' Guild looking for the ring? ”
Wang: "That's a lie, the envoy sent by the Emperor did not include dwarfs, which is very abnormal. The main body of the Explorers' Guild is the gnome, the gnome regards satisfying curiosity as the meaning of life, if a dwarf loses his curiosity, his skin will gradually lose its color, and the person will gradually die.
"Because of this, eighty percent of the explorers in this world are dwarfs."
As soon as the king finished speaking, the dwarf pulled out a wooden box for stepping feet from under the experimental table.
"The owner of the diary is indeed a dwarf." The dwarf stood up on the box as he spoke, and looked over the table to the king, "You see, this pad is too high for me to use, but if the dwarf uses it, its shoulders are just above the tabletop. ”
"Wait a minute!" Marika interrupted the crowd, "More important than caring if the person writing this is a dwarf, isn't it, could this place be the Cyclops' floating city?" ”
Wang spread his hands: "Even the person who wrote this thinks that this may be his own speculation." Floating City, where is it so easy to find now? ”
