Chapter 147 The Dead
Net》|》| provides you with wonderful novels to read.
In the shadow world of black and white, the blood-colored mud surging out of the black mist rolled like living creatures. Farther beyond the black fog, they looked like some kind of disgusting, creepy mollusk, and they made a disturbing, murky noise as they tumbled. At first, Gawain thought that the sound was a normal sound during the turbulence of the mud, but soon he could hear the whispers from the grunting voice as if people were murmured in their sleep. No one could hear the blasphemous and confusing whispers. Hearing any logical messages in the middle of nowhere can only bring about fear, irritability, speculation and unease.
Not only Gawain, but also Amber have never seen such a strange thing in the Shadow Realm. It obviously corresponds to the location of the original cultivation containers, but these blood-colored mud is the same as the Shadow Realm's "reflection" of the present world in the past. The rules are very different, it is clearly something more distorted and should not be here, rather than it "mirrors" it here, it occupies something that is here for a reason.
Gawain looked at the mud that kept gushing out of the black mist with instinctive disgust, and then looked back at Amber: "What's this... Are these things scaring you?"
He felt a little strange. Although the blood-colored mud gave people a very bad feeling, and the constant whispers were also disturbing, and some kind of strange force was still trying to put terror in Gawain's mind. Slideshow, but these things, apart from giving Gawain a little bit of the thrill of staying up late to watch horror movies in his previous life, didn't touch him at all - and Amber is a fearless master, who dared to drill into the magic tide. There is a fierce man who digs graves in the graves of the ancients. It is possible for her to be startled by the mud, but it is not right to be scared.
Amber also seemed a little strange, she glanced at the mud with a little fear: "Yes... Yes... but just looking at these things just now, I felt as terrifying as my mind was about to explode, and I even recalled its appearance. There will be hallucinations one after another, but I don't know what's going on now... these things are still disgusting, but they don't seem to feel like they are under a mental attack."
"Really?" Gawain looked at Amber, then frowned at the mud. Then he clenched the pioneer's sword and walked cautiously towards the source of the mud.
Some intuition told him that most of the monster outside the "Aberration Hybrid" monster with strong vitality is related to the mud in the Shadow Realm. If the mud is not solved, the investigation here may never be able to proceed smoothly. .
Amber watched Gawain move forward, and also squeezed her sweat nervously. In the face of such a foreign object that surpassed common sense, her combat effectiveness seemed unreliable—but the next second, her eyes widened in astonishment.
Because as Gawain moved forward step by step, the surging blood-colored mud actually retreated a little bit!
It wasn't obvious at first,
But after Gawain walked a few steps, the mud that spread in all directions actually dented into a large area, which was so obvious that anyone could notice it.
Gawain himself was stunned by this situation. He took another step forward, and the mud took another step back. He stopped simply, so the mud also stayed in place, slowly wriggling in place.
"What's going on?" Amber's surprised voice came from behind, "These things seem... afraid of you?"
"It's not so much fear, it's more a conditioned reflex that is very similar to biological instinct," Gawain frowned, he couldn't figure out why the mud retreated in front of him for a while, but it didn't prevent him from continuing. Walking forward, "Alright, it saves me a lot of effort."
The mud in front of Gawain finally completely retreated into the black fog, and as Gawain continued to move forward, even the black fog finally began to shrink and deform, and it finally revealed a gap, through the gap, Gawain saw at a glance the neatly arranged runes on the ground and the magic spar that still had some shimmering light remaining.
Magic circle? It is not a magic circle that is mapped from the present world to the shadow world, but a magic circle that is really built directly in the shadow world? !
Is it the handwriting of those Gondor magisters?
Gawain was a little surprised for a while, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not too incredible: the magic technology of the Gondor Empire far surpassed that of contemporary times. At that time, the unique human magic system was even a skill that surprised the elves. Although that At that time, human beings could not figure out the essence of the shadow world, but this did not affect the ability of the more powerful mages to enter the shadow world at that time.
Amber stood far away from the blood-colored mud. Seeing that Gawain had not moved for a long time, he vigorously waved his hands and shouted: "What did you find?"
"The magic circle is built on 'this side'," Gawain replied without looking up, "It seems that this experimental facility was built in two parts, the equipment in the current world is only one part, and the other part is built. In the Shadowlands..."
Amber looked surprised: "Wow! The people of that era were very powerful, and they could also enter the Shadow Realm?"
"You can't imagine how powerful the people of that era were." Gawain said casually, then stepped into the black mist, and searched for the core formation of the magic circle in the mist tumbling against the ground. As the black mist continued to recede, this complex and huge array was pieced together little by little in Gawain's sight.
With a fairly good theoretical knowledge, Gawain quickly judged that this magic circle was very different from the conventional magic circle. Only part of it belonged to "magic", it was a regular spell rune or elemental rune, but Other parts have special symbols called "Sacred Sigils" or "Sacred Runes".
Those symbols are not a part of the magic system at all, but the marks commonly used by religious people. They are also said to be from the eternal slate, and their function is to communicate and channel the power of the gods. The "magic circle" drawn with such symbols cannot be called. "Magic Array", but it should be a magic array.
In Gawain's common sense, the magic circle and the magic circle are two completely different things, but this... is the product of the fusion of the magic circle and the magic circle!
And the function of this hybrid array seems to be extraordinarily complicated. As far as what I have seen so far, Gawain has found as many as twenty control rune groups, as well as a large number of runes similar to the charging structure... This kind of The charging structure is not common in the magic circles of the Gondor era. After all, the magic devices of the year were basically maintained by the magic power from the Deep Blue Well, and the "inefficient" operation of drawing free energy from the environment was rare. But this magic circle set in the Shadow Realm has a complex and huge charging structure...
But no matter how weird this magic circle is, its size is only that big. As the black fog continued to retreat in front of Gawain, its core area was finally fully exposed. The moment he saw the core of the magic circle, Gawain His eyes narrowed.
Disobeying the gods...devouring the flesh and blood of the gods...feasting...
As these crazy words came to his mind, Gawain's eyes also fell on that thing for a long time without moving.
It was a man-made crystal that was only one foot square. In the center of the crystal, there was an extremely strange biological tissue.
Gawain could only use "weird biological tissue" to describe what he saw, because he couldn't identify what kind of creature the flesh-like thing came from. It was dark red and had no structures like blood vessels and tendons. But there are constantly things like blood flowing around it out of thin air. It may have been sealed in the crystal for thousands of years, but it is still slowly shrinking and wriggling...
like an immortal heart.
The truth was about to come out, but Gawain couldn't believe the bold association he had made, but if the words on the wall of the test hall were true, and if those crazy and absurd manuscript records were true, then the crystal in this crystal was true. What a thing is is a matter of no doubt.
In the end, Gawain decided to trust his own judgment, because he remembered those "battlefield communications" recorded in the Eternal Slate Fragment.
God is dead, and it is not unimaginable for flesh and blood to fall into the human world.
If a devout believer was here, or any local person with normal views was here, after realizing what was in the crystal, he would immediately lose his ability to speak and act due to consternation and fear, but Gawain is an alternative. , he was just a little worried that this group of "flesh of the gods" would suddenly jump up and slap his aunt. After all, this kind of weird stuff often means great danger, but look at the bloody mud and black mist around him. Compared to the appearance, it seems that this group of flesh and blood is more afraid of itself...
Gawain took the pioneer sword and carefully poked the crystal. The biological tissue in the crystal seemed to tremble a little, but after a closer look, there was no change.
All in all, there is no danger.
Gawain put away his sword, bent down and picked up the one-foot-square artificial crystal cube. It had a bit of weight, but it was nothing to Gawain. -Divine Magic Array", the surging black mist and blood-colored mud that remained around disappeared almost in the blink of an eye.
The rune array that lost its core reluctantly ran for a few seconds, and the few magic crystals left on the array quickly dimmed. In the end, only one complex and mysterious rune was left here, and there were no more visions. .
"This is... what is this..." Amber watched Gawain with a nervous look and took out a large piece of crystal. This was the first time in her life that she had seen such a shiny thing but couldn't give birth to a little bit. The thought of stealing it and selling it for money, "I...how do I feel like I'm all hairy just looking at it?!"
"Do you really want to know?" Gawain held the flesh-and-blood tissue that most likely came from a god, and glanced at Amber with a half-smile, "With your brain, you should have guessed something, right?"
"I..." Amber suddenly widened his eyes, then took a deep breath, "Aren't you joking?!"
"It is said that there was a battle of gods in ancient times, the gods fell to the world, and the world has extraordinary power including magic, so since the power of the gods can fall, why is it impossible for their flesh and blood to fall?" Gao Wen laughed With a smile, he didn't tell the information he got from the Eternal Slate Fragment, but explained it with the legend of the ancient battle of gods. After all, no matter how much Amber escapes the strange and thick lines, she is also the three views of the locals. And she also claimed to be a devout follower of the Shadow Goddess, directly telling her that the gods may all be dead, and that the gods who are worshipping now mortals know what kind of shit she might not be able to accept, but the legend of ancient battles of gods has existed since ancient times. The only thing—she should be able to accept it in this way.
After all, when the gods themselves are fighting, it’s okay to say that two or three fall, but being blocked by the Zentraedi Fleet and destroying the whole family is another level...
Seeing Amber nodding his head thoughtfully, Gawain secretly made up his mind: If necessary, he will use the same explanation as those "outside".
He didn't want the wave of people he had finally saved up, but the three views that he had tossed about were all collapsed...
Even if it collapses, it has to collapse gradually.
