231 Reading 2
Puff ......
The endless descent finally stopped, and Raymond, who had fallen from an unknown place above the road, fell on the hard ground without feeling pain.
Boom......
Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared with a loud sound, causing Raymond to go blind instantly.
He was shocked, but when Raymond wanted to strengthen his protective force field, he found that the mana could not be mobilized, and the talent force field that should have been on the surface of the body all along was also gone!
"Follow me......"
A familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and in the footsteps of Si Si Suosuo, a tall figure passed by Raymond's side and walked towards Raymond's right front.
After the creepy, Raymond suddenly came to his senses.
He is now in the fantasy of that book, and the person who walks in front of him is probably the author of that book: El Thomas!
Taking a deep breath, Raymond, who hurried into action, quickly caught up with this person.
The man, who was nearly two meters tall but not burly, didn't seem to care about Raymond at all, and he walked cautiously through the passage.
In the pitch-black cave the width of the two of them, there was no sound except for footsteps and breathing, but the light source condensed by the magic in front of this man kept a distance of three meters from him, illuminating everything within ten meters.
Seeing that the man who was moving cautiously didn't seem to be able to see himself at all, Raymond's nervous mood relaxed, and he began to carefully observe his surroundings.
The unusually dry passages seemed to have been formed naturally, but the soil between the crevices of the stones was red, and Raymond had not found any mosses or plant rhizomes, not even the insects commonly found underground.
I can't perceive it at all, and I can't use the exploration of spiritual power. And when Raymond wanted to retrieve the data of the chip, he found that the chip that never made mistakes did not follow his instructions to respond.
"Hallucinations, all hallucinations!" Silently muttering these words, Raymond sped up and came to the tall man's side.
But when Raymond wanted to see his face, he found that this man's face was blurred, and he could only vaguely see his facial features, but he couldn't see his face clearly.
Seeing this, although he knew that he was now in an illusion, Raymond still didn't dare to speak, so he could only follow his footsteps silently. Step by step, he continued to walk towards the depths of the passage.
I don't know how long it took for the passage ahead.
A quaint metal door that shines brightly under the influence of illumination.
The tall man quickened his pace, quickly came to the door, leaned in to observe for a moment, and then sighed. "A fusion of more than a dozen metals. Only ancient wizards can do this kind of technique, it's too rare!"
It's like admiring a work of art. The man stood in front of the gate for a long time. Then, with the inexplicable spell that appeared on his palm, the entire door began to shake.
In the sound of "click", the door that had been sucked out of the stone wall was moved to the side, and then the man carefully erected it on the stone wall next to the door.
And as the door was removed, everything in the doorway was revealed by the illumination.
Raymond, who didn't dare to walk in before this man, stood next to the door and looked inside.
A square room. The four walls are not the stones of the previous passage, but a kind of stone slab that glows in the light.
The warehouse-like room was littered with wooden planks and other garbage, and in the corner of the room was a tall pile of barrels.
And the tall man who was squatting on the ground. But he had been observing the metal door erected on the wall, and he even took out a small brush to clean up the floating dust on the door, and kept muttering something in his mouth.
It was a long time before the man got up and walked into the room behind the door.
Looking around, he was fixed on the ceiling in the middle of the room, and the tall man who rolled up his sleeves to reveal his thick arms began to clean up everything on the floor as if he were a cleaner.
The fragments of the planks, the palm-sized scraps of paper, and even the fine stones were gathered and piled together by him.
Raymond, who was standing behind this man, couldn't help but be stunned.
But the tall man who didn't pay attention to Raymond at all began to move the barrels in the corner after sorting out everything on the ground.
More than twenty black wooden barrels stacked in the corner were carefully moved to the center of the room by him, and then opened one by one.
Nearly half of the barrels contained a black-brown, flour-like substance, but the powdered contents seemed to be dry and rotten in the barrels, and when the cylinder was opened, it quickly collapsed from the inside, raising up clouds of black-brown dust.
There are also a few barrels filled with water.
Only the last barrel, which was stamped with some kind of logo, contained several wooden boxes sealed with a waxy substance.
The tall man, who seemed to have become extremely excited, trembled slightly on his bare arms, and soon the wooden boxes were opened one by one under his careful handling.
More than a dozen papers written in strange script, two thumb-sized balls that glowed with fluorescents, and a piece of metal that shimmered with a ghostly glow.
But Raymond, who lost the ability to record chips, was completely dumbfounded even when he came to this man and faced the strange words on the document.
It was impossible to memorize all the dense words on it, but the man was very fast when he flipped through them, so when he read all the contents, Raymond only remembered the dozens of words and the strange symbols that appeared in each document.
And after the man had checked all the contents of the barrel, he went to the corner of the room.
With the dazzling light that appeared from the palm of his hand, I saw that the glowing wall began to dissolve.
The wall that collapsed behind it as if it had been doused with sulfuric acid quickly disappeared from Raymond's sight, and the man did not stop until the kind of stone from the previous passage reappeared.
The three walls, plus the ceiling and the floor, all of them were concocted in this way, and a faint haze appeared in the room, and the man who sighed suddenly turned to face Raymond.
"Little one, chase the truth of everything, you can do it too. ”
Startled, before Raymond could react, the man suddenly stretched out his finger and poked it in Raymond's eyebrows...... (To be continued.) )
