Chapter 140: The Gift of the Ancestors (29)
Chapter 140βThe Gift of the Ancestors (29)
The Ancestor's room was brightly lit, and the corpses that had been magically moved to the floor still maintained their basic human shape, not shattered into pieces, nor alarmed the other mages outside.
Usu leaned over and cast a few spells on the skeleton, trying to track the age of the corpse's death. If you have a time base, you can deduce a missing archmage in modern times.
Luo Qi quickly looked at the room inside, it looked very simple, there were no decorative paintings flashing on the walls, I don't know if it was because the Sealed Land only welcomed Du Zhengyi, or because this house had no decorative walls in the first place. Roach is inclined to think of the latter. There were shelves on both sides of the doorway to the room, and scattered on the shelves were scattered with some loose crystals, a few empty crystal storage boxes, and some bits and pieces that Roach couldn't say were useful or material. The room seemed to be empty only on the wall facing the door, with only a small workbench placed in the corner, as if to give up the center for the projection screen......
Of course there won't be a projection screen, Rocky just thinks it's functional.
If you speculate according to the general situation, there may have been a mage in recent times who came here like them, and died here for some reason. He died with the door to the inner room, most likely trapped inside, and perhaps Usu opened all the doors in the outer room when he opened it. Many years ago, a mage was trapped here because he didn't know about this spell.
But it doesn't make sense that a mage who doesn't even know how to unlock the door can go deep into the depths of the sealed land. Luo Qi couldn't imagine why a Du Clan mage would lock people here. Everything here is too life-like, and it really doesn't look like a place where a mage can be trapped.
Roach glanced at Usu, and while Usu was still focused on magic, he walked quickly into the room. This room is not too small, about 50 square meters, and it is not too big, just suitable for creatures the size of a human, not for dinosaurs. Roach picked up a crystal from a shelf placed against the wall and looked at it, but the crystal did not respond to his call. Either it's a blank crystal, or it's a dead scrap crystal. There are also some metal blocks on the shelves, which are complex in structure, and are stacked together like the building blocks of something. These things looked like Liu Ziyu would be interested, and Luo Qi looked around again, and even the room itself looked like Liu Ziyu's studio. He could imagine that Liu Ziyu also had such an office in Qionglin, messily piled up with her complicated and broken things.
Perhaps this was originally a studio, an office, and the ancestors quarreled at the door of the office, spraying feces on each other, and the memories were very deep under the anger, and they were accidentally passed on to future generations. Roach didn't know whether to explain it or not, he didn't know what those mages who were once omnipotent like gods had done, where they had gone, what trouble they had caused, they seemed to be everywhere to this day, but they never told any of the descendants of the future generations what they were doing.
Roach unconsciously walked to the end of the room, stood by the workbench in annoyance, and picked up a crystal from the workbench, which had even been broken. Ancestral mages like to encapsulate everything, and their rooms automatically form furniture as needed, and it's rare to find a room like this so lively. Maybe there was still someone living here at the last moment, maybe it was a duty room, and the last person was left behind, locked in the room and finally diedβRoach thought as he broke the jar and threw the broken crystal back onto the table.
He looked back irritably, a pair of ice-blue eyes smiling at him.
"Ahh Roach screamed, took a step backwards, stared at his eyes in the mist in horror, and involuntarily cursed, "Ahh β
The instinct of the mind mage that had been established worked without Rocky even thinking about it, just as a battle mage would throw a large dose of attack magic, Rocky's mind rushed out of his own shield range.
But beyond his shield, there was no danger, only the world of unfamiliar thoughts fluctuating low and with pleasure. Roach was taken aback, and cautiously withdrew his thoughts. In an instant, the clouds dissipated, and the blue-eyed man stood in front of him, his ice-blue eyes clear and fragile, and Roach could even see the lines on his lips and the subtle fuzz on his face. Luo Qi looked at him in a daze, he was wrapped in the robes of an ancient mage, but his appearance and temperament were no different from those of today. His face was flawless, his body was long and healthy, and he didn't breathe......
An exclamation came from behind Roach, and the shock broke through the archmage's usual towering barrier, which was sensed by Roach. Roach came back to his senses and heard Usu's subconscious whisper, "This is ......"
This is the Ancestral Mage? No, Roach intuitively felt that he was not, it should be said that he was a mage from the Ancestral Era. He looked at the ancient, living mage through the transparent wall, and for a moment he thought that a cloud had dissipated before his eyes, but now he realized that it was just the wall becoming transparent.
"What did you do?" Usu finally pulled his gaze back from the person who suddenly appeared, placed it on Roach's body, and asked him.
"I didn't do anything." Roach whispered affirmatively, less sure if it was because of his proximity that triggered something, or if it was because he touched a crystal or a piece of metal that triggered something. "Maybe it's the induction floor."
Usu glanced at him, "Then why don't you just ask him?" β
Rocky licked his lips nervously, "He's not very conscious right now. I just detected that his consciousness space was very soothing, like sleeping. Archmage Usu, we've picked up a Sleeping Beauty. β
Usu was silent for a moment, and in almost a breath, they looked at the ancient mage in silence. No one noticed them, and some mages outside were still shouting and counting dinosaur corpses.
Rocky said sluggishly, "I thought we'd find the dinosaurs." It's weird enough to encounter dinosaurs, isn't it? β
Wu Su thought for a moment and said, "Since you can save dinosaurs, theoretically speaking, it is not difficult to save people. You say they don't have a clear consciousness? So why do we speak in such a low voice? β
Luo Qi coughed and lowered his voice a little louder, "Don't dare to speak loudly, for fear of frightening the heavenly people?" β
Usu observed for a few seconds and asked hesitantly, "Can you wake him up?" Master Luo. β
"I don't know if it's wise to do that." Roach said, remembering the prison under Jonlin where high-powered mages were imprisoned. This man's mind is too calm, and if he is sleeping, he is now asleep without dreams. The man who has been sleeping for 10,000 years without dreams, is the person who put him here punishing him, or is there another purpose?
Usu must have been thinking about this as well, and he suddenly said, "Ancestors don't continue their lives in this way. There is no meaning to live, no quality. β
Roach couldn't think of a reason, he couldn't even think calmly, and before he knew it, he said the part of his mind that was human. "Maybe I'm sick and I'm freezing myself here, waiting to find a way to save myself later."
But that's impossible, they are all unworthy descendants of ancient mages, and each generation is worse than the next. If the Ancestor Mage can't solve it, the descendants of the future generations can't solve it.
But Usu said at this time, "Maybe." β
Luo Qi was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at Wusu, and said with admiration, "Archmage Wusu is really amazing, no mage has ever agreed to my for so long, not even if you agree so much." β
"But in my mind, I heard them saying that there was nowhere to go, that the virus was spreading so fast that I didn't know which ship was safe. I know what you're saying is unlikely, but what you're saying vaguely corresponds to what happened here back then. Maybe they really have nowhere to go, so they seal themselves here. Usu said.
Roach got serious, "But why nowhere to go?" Outside is a free world that could not be better and can be completely dominated by them. β
Usu shook his head, and Roach knew he hadn't answered either. Usu glanced at the man again, they were almost as tall as they could look into each other's eyes. "Why...... Is he blue-eyed? β
"You don't like blue?" Roach asked casually, diving into the calm of his thoughts.
"Since we have more mages with good looks, I thought we should have some kind of advantage, and the ancestor sealed here should be closer to our appearance." Usu said confusedly. "We're black-eyed."
"Dark brown." Roach corrected perfunctorily and habitually.
"But certainly not blue eyes, no blue eyes." "On top of that, his hair is so dark, he's like a middleman." β
"That's probably because ......" Roach's words stopped at the tip of his tongue, and he found the only flame in his calm mind, his attention instantly focused, and he wanted to talk to the flame - [Do you want to come up with it?] γ
The flame has no thoughts, but it hooks up another force, and that force is like a flood. Liu Ziyu, who was outside a room, screamed excitedly, and Luo Qi was distracted to tell that it was Liu Ziyu who had obtained greater sealing power. But he should have paid more attention to what was in front of him, because the transparent wall that separated him from Blue Eyes was gone......
