Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 208: The Endless Treasure of the Old Lich

Views:

The islands in the ocean are quite far away from the Fidel Wilderness, about 600 kilometers away. Even Celine would be exhausted flying back and forth like this. Fortunately, there is a group of wild griffins in the islands.

Link and the others each captured a griffin, and then controlled the terrified raptors to fly towards the mainland.

The griffin was very fast, within two hours, the three of Link stood at the gate of the underground palace again, and as soon as the three griffins regained their freedom, they immediately flew away like frightened birds without a trace.

Returning to the underground palace again, the three returned to the deepest hall of the underground palace without hindrance.

In the hall, Wayans carefully looked at the furnishings everywhere, and said in disbelief: "It's really strange, everything is well preserved, even the position of the chairs hasn't changed, if it wasn't for the memory, I would have some Doubt I just left here yesterday."

Link smiled and said: "This is the credit of your puppet, this is her temple. Her ultimate goal is to protect the temple from being violated."

Speaking of the puppet, Wayans sighed again: "It's just too protective, even I don't recognize it."

All the furnishings in the hall remained the same. Touched by these familiar things, a lot of memories that had been forgotten by him slowly emerged in Wayans' mind. He ran around in the gorgeous hall nervously, muttering , talking to himself.

"This scroll... oh, it's an unfinished magic, and it's still in a half-unfolded state, exactly the same as when I left!"

"This chair was my favorite before. It hasn't changed at all, not even dust."

"Oh, the mechanism is still here, and it hasn't rusted at all."

He twisted the mechanism, and suddenly, a "click, click, click" sound of the switch came from behind a wall. After a few seconds, the wall on the left side of the hall, which was painted with exquisite reliefs, suddenly retreated slowly. Then move into the ground one by one.

Behind the wall, there is a 5-meter-deep space, and there are three antique boxes inside. The boxes are very big, one meter high and nearly two meters long. Judging from the style of the painting on the outside of the box, it should be the most prosperous 500 years ago. Works from the period of the Assyrian Dynasty.

Wayans waved to Link and Celine, and said triumphantly, "Come here and see my treasure."

He walked into the hall first, and opened the box on the far left first. After the box was opened, wooden frames were unfolded layer by layer. There were twenty layers, and each layer had at least 40 grids. full of stuff.

"This is a Warchit-style space folding treasure chest, the most stable space equipment, and the space compression ratio is 50:1. There are a total of 800 grids in the box, all of which are filled with various rare metals and materials. For example, this piece of thorium is close to 1,500 grams."

Wayans took out a piece of thorium from a grid. The thorium was originally the size of a thumb, but after reaching the normal space, it became the size of a fist. The silver light like a broken star almost blinded Link's eyes.

Link had seen a similar box in Verola before, but that box was incomparable to what he was seeing. Looking at the light emitted by various rare materials in the treasure box, Link really understood why Wayne Si said that his materials are enough to build a thorn in the sky.

Celine on the side also opened her mouth slightly, she couldn't believe that a person could collect so much wealth.

Waynes was very proud, he laughed loudly, and his bones kept shaking: "I sold all kinds of combat qigong back then, and those nobles came to me to buy them regardless of the cost. At that time, I was the number one in the world. A great businessman."

As he said that, he walked to the second treasure chest and opened it, but there were rows of bookshelves popping up inside. The bookshelves were full of hardcover magic books, and the covers of each magic book were decorated with a lot of gems, paper, etc. The quality is also very good, and there are various magic power fluctuations in the books, which shows that these magic books record a large number of extremely valuable magic circles.

Looking at the number, there are at least three hundred. Link took out a magic book, and saw that the title was "Crazy Fine World".

After opening it for a few glances, Link's pupils shrank, and he saw a formula that was almost exactly the same as a formula in the paper he had been deducing.

After flipping through it a few more times, Link saw many similar thoughts, some of which he and the author of this book thought of, and some of which he thought of, but the author of this book did not. There are still some, the other party has thought of it, but Link hasn't thought of it yet.

After just reading a few pages, Link gained a lot of exquisite ideas.

"This is a priceless treasure!"

A look of real shock appeared on Link's face. The materials that were bright enough to blind people's eyes only made him feel a little bit moved, but these magic books made Link have a deep yearning.

Wayans laughed 'cack-crack', he was satisfied that Link, a genius, could lose his composure so much.

He walked to the third treasure chest and opened it. This treasure chest was also a folding space, but it was much empty. There were some hardcover scrolls inside.

Wayans looked over one by one, and the skeleton fingers flicked lightly on each scroll, and the movements were full of nostalgia.

He smiled with emotion: "The battle qigong scrolls and my research experience are all here. These things are not many, but they have cost me at least 200 years, and because of them, I have also earned the reputation of a bloody butcher. "

Link walked over and opened a scroll, and saw "Storm and Shocking Sky Art" written on the surface of the scroll, which is also an epic skill, and also has a vulgar name. He opened the other scrolls to see that they were also battle qi exercises. He counted them, and there were 16 of them. There were epic exercises, some common ones, and some unfinished ones.

After introducing all the treasures, Waynes turned to Link and said, "These things are of no use to me, an old man. Now, they all belong to you."

Although he was mentally prepared, Link was still very grateful when Wein said it calmly: "Old guy, I really don't know how to thank you."

Wayans shook his head and smiled: "The best way to thank me is not to waste them, use this wealth and knowledge to build a prosperous territory!"

Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, patted his head, walked to the treasure chest in the middle, took out three magic books, then walked to the treasure chest on the right, and took out a few scrolls and a note, he put these Pass it to Link: "All the knowledge about puppets is memorized here, you can take it back and study it. Also, my underground palace has been exposed to a dark and powerful existence. These three treasure chests are placed here. It's not safe, and even I can't stay here, they have to be taken away as soon as possible."

This is natural.

Next, Link and Celine acted as porters, transporting the good things in the underground palace to Scorched Earth Ridge one after another. There were a lot of things, and the space in the space equipment was limited, so the two moved back and forth three times. , before dumping the things clean.

After the shipment was over, Link, Celine, and Wayans met at Shark Bay. At this time, Wayans was holding a very thick handwritten book titled "The Rare Book of the First Men's War".

Seeing Link coming, he smiled and said, "The last question is the abnormal climate in the Field Wilderness."

Link lifted his spirits and looked at the handwritten book: "Could it be that the answer is in this book?"

Wayans smiled: "It is very likely."

He opened the thick book and turned to the middle page. He pointed to a passage and read: "On this day, the Storm Lord and the Rock Lord fought at the seaside. Their war lasted three days and three nights. Both great Lords Scarred and bruised, they launched the final attack, and the Storm Lord smashed the Rock Lord's body with a sword, but he, who was seriously injured, eventually fell by the sea."

After reading, he looked at Link and said, "See? This seaside is the Field Wilderness. There are gravels everywhere in this wilderness. These are the corpses of the Rock Lords, and this harsh hurricane is the remnants of the Storm Lords. "

Listening to this passage, Celine was very surprised: "Isn't this just a legend? Do you take it seriously?"

Waynes was not angry either, and said with a smile: "Little girl, you don't understand, legends are those long histories, behind which lies the truth of history."

Link fell into deep thought. As a magician, he had read the history of the world of Ferroman.

He knows that the world of Ferroman has not always been like it is today. Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a golden age when strong men came out in large numbers. At that time, legendary strong men walked everywhere, and the most powerful legendary strong men , is called the lord.

The Storm Lord and the Rock Lord are likely to exist like this. Why they fought is unknown, but this can indeed explain the strange geographical features of the Field Wilderness to a large extent.

After thinking for a while, Link said: "I heard that in the golden age, these lords were all supreme powerhouses. They possessed holy souls. After death, these souls would not dissipate completely, but would still retain their cores. Does this mean that, If we can find the core of the storm, we can solve the hurricane that erupts from time to time?"

"You're right!" Waynes flicked his finger, he turned the book to another page, pointed to a passage and read: "The Lionheart King came to this wilderness, and suddenly there was a wind, and the wind and sand were all over the place. , the king lost his way, and in a whirl of chaos, he arrived at a mysterious storm valley... This seems to be the source of the storm."

The Lionheart King was a character more than 2,000 years ago. He was a very great king and loved adventures. History has left many legends about his adventures. Some are true and some are false. The paragraph reveals two pieces of information.

One, the core of the storm is very likely to exist. Two, it is very likely to exist in a certain valley.

Although this is not necessarily true, but with this clue, it is already worthwhile to find this Storm Canyon.

Celine questioned: "The Field Wilderness is so big, it seems that no one has heard that there is a storm canyon here."

Wayans nodded: "It is true that there is no Storm Canyon in Field Wilderness, but this history reveals a message, that is, these storms most likely have a source."

It is better to have no books than to believe in books, but books record history, although it may be greatly distorted, but if you have a pair of insightful eyes, you can see some truths of history through the fog.

Link frowned and pondered for a long time, then he said: "There is a Howling Wind Demon Tiger in my territory. He is very sensitive to the wind element. Maybe let him try to find the source of this storm."

"This is a good idea." Wayans closed the "Collected Book of the First Men's War" and handed it to Link: "This is a rare book, you can read it when you have time. There are many historical records in it that are worth pondering, very interesting."

"No problem." Link was very interested in the book.

Afterwards, Link and Celine returned to the territory, and Wayans found a remote place in the field wilderness to stay. He didn't say where he was going, but he gave Link a message rune, and agreed to wait for Link to study it. After understanding the puppet principle, if you agree to transform the puppet, please contact him.

Link naturally had no objection. After returning to Scorched Earth Ridge, he first rushed to River Valley Town in Gwent Forest to find a priest to heal the wound on his body, and then returned to Scorched Earth Ridge to find Doras and told the story.

"What, the source of the storm?" Doras had been quite moist these days, looking lazy. After hearing Link's words, he subconsciously raised his nose to the sky and sniffed the wind in the wilderness carefully.

After a while, he nodded: "The wind here is indeed a bit different, I'll go find it."

He was extremely efficient. As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped up from the ground, sniffing and walking, and quickly left Scorched Earth Ridge.

He has been eating Link's food, using Link's food, and doing nothing all the time, and he feels very embarrassed, and his whole body is almost rusty from idleness, so it's time to go out to relax.
