Chapter Twenty-Six: The Staff of Void

The merman leader nodded, saluted Cynthia again, and turned to face the lake.

"Gollum...... Gollum ...... "It stretched its hands to its sides, spitting out a long, rhythmic string of sounds from its throat, like a magician chanting a spell.

Seeing this, the other mermaids also consciously divided into two columns, standing on either side of the leader, and sounded according to its appearance.

I saw that the originally calm surface of the lake near here suddenly began to have waves, as if there was a stream of water constantly surging up from the bottom of the lake, tumbling up and down, and then with the increase of the sound made by the mermaids, these waves gradually converged in the same direction, becoming a narrow one, like a white line, and finally slowly retreated to both sides, like a knife to divide the whole lake in two.

The sand and gravel at the bottom of the lake slowly revealed, and in a few moments, a path to the center of the lake appeared in front of them.

This is somewhat similar to the water dividing spell that Eren and the others learned in school, except that this one is larger and more powerful.

"It's a gift from God. "So that they can better manage the water and manage their habitat." ”

"Gollum. After a moment, the merman leader stopped, turned back and motioned to Alan and the others to go down with him.

It's a slope, not too steep, and there's plenty of foothold for them to climb down calmly.

When they came to the bottom of the lake, they found that there was only foam gushing on the surface of the lake, and although the water at the bottom of the lake was rising rapidly, they could still clearly see the scenery in the water on both sides. There are no aquatic plants in the area, and the water looks quite clear. The fish had all been scared away, and only the young mermaids stared at them curiously through the wall of water.

Devoid of the buoyancy of the current, the aquatic weeds on this path have completely fallen to the ground, and their nests can be clearly seen from here. A few mermaids swam over from both sides, pushing the weeds on the road to both sides, clearing the obstacles in their path.

Walking through the original underwater forest, they soon reached the bottom of the altar.

The road came to an end, and the altar was still surrounded by water.

When the merman guards near here saw the leader coming, they all consciously retreated to both sides.

The merman leader re-entered the water, swam to the top of the altar, circled the Staff of Void several times as if performing some ritual, and then solemnly saluted it a few times and took it down.

By the time the merman leader returned to Alan and the others again, the tears attached to the wand had been swept away.

"Gollum. It grunted quietly, and handed the Staff of Void to both hands.

Somehow, Cynthia, who had always thirsted for strength, was now unusually calm, as if what was in front of her was not some long-lost holy relic, but an apple, a book, and something very ordinary.

She took it, taking a closer look at the Staff of Void...... It's well-proportioned, tapering from the bottom to the top like most normal wands, but it's a little longer and a little oddly colored. I couldn't tell if it was white or gray, it looked like a milky wand was covered in dust, but nothing changed when I wiped it with my hand. And it still exudes a faint light, dotted with stars, hazy, and a little similar to the state of "nothingness". There are many small cracks on its surface, and after careful inspection, it is found that the hair-like cracks are actually words, densely packed, from beginning to end.

Cynthia closed her eyes to feel the power within, and was surprised to find that if the magic stored in her own wand was a lake, then the wand of void stored was an ocean, and it was impossible to estimate how much magic it carried...... All she knew was that just holding the wand in her hand would send energy to her hand, hitting her palm......

It also made her mind a little uncalm.

She opened her eyes and saw a bright red flash on her wand.

"It acknowledges you. Helenthia came to them at some point, and watched it all, "You reminded it of its original owner. ”

"Remember?" Cynthia was a little puzzled.

"It's made from immortal stones...... "Helencia said, "and only this stone is found in the Valley of Origin in the entire Hep continent, and it's the only one...... This spirituality will faithfully record everything that happens around it, if you have a deep enough affinity with it. ”

"I see...... Cynthia stared at the wand carefully, "then these words ......"

"Probably the magic that Sherlyn used to use with this wand, the words she had said to this wand, or what was on her mind. "Oh, maybe what happened to its successors." ”

"Her thoughts?? Allen's flash of inspiration, "then please hurry up and see what is written on it, maybe you can find a little secret about that magic book from it!"

"Well, that's what I thought too. With that, Cynthia raised the Staff of Void to her eyes.

But after a moment, she shook her head again: "It's a pity......

"What's wrong?" Allen's heart instantly cooled in half.

"The text is so disorganized and layered that it is impossible to make out the full meaning......" Cynthia handed them the Staff of Void, "It seems that the heirs of the past have placed a lot of trust in it. ”

Several people looked at the wand carefully, and found that it was indeed as Cynthia said, the words on it were layered on top of each other, and the directions were different, not to mention the complete sentence that could be deciphered, and it was difficult to read a single word clearly.

"Okay......" Alan was slightly disappointed and returned the wand to Cynthia.

"It seems that the only way to find answers is there......" Allen said.

"There?" Riel didn't understand.

"It's the Valley of Origin. Alan said, "Did Mr. Adrian say that the original four Guardians made a special trip back to the Valley of Origin before they died?"

"That's right. ”

"I was a little skeptical at first, but now it seems like it's true......," said Allen, "and sure enough, in addition to reminiscing about the good times they spent there, they also hid more important secrets there...... For example, the secret ...... about that book"

Alan looks looking forward to the upcoming trip to the Valley of Origins.

"And if I'm not mistaken, they entrusted everything to the Immortal Stone!"
