The ice cave chamber looks like an ordinary household room.
It is about one hundred square meters. There are two semicircular bookshelves on the four walls of the room. There are a lot of books on the shelves. In the corner of the room, there is a small room blocked by a carved screen. Through the hollow gap on the screen, you can see a wooden bed in it, which should be the bedroom.
In the main hall outside, there is a large round table. There are two people sitting beside the table, a man and a woman. The corpses are not decomposed, but have completely lost their moisture and look as withered as wood.
The expressions of the two were still the same as before. The man was flipping through a magic book, and the woman was carving an adamantine stone bird. The expressions on their faces were very calm, and the man seemed to be still talking.
In the middle of the round table, there is a magic book with a light blue glow. The ethereal voice that Link heard before is also coming from this magic book.
Many doubts came to Link's mind: 'Who is this man and woman? Why live in the far north? And why did you leave this magical book that is so extraordinary at first glance? '
Driven by these doubts, Link walked into this secret igloo step by step. When he took three steps forward, a subtle magical power suddenly began to surge in the air.
Startled, Link stopped, and instinctively touched Song of the Moon with his hands.
About two seconds later, a ray of light and shadow like luminous cotton wool appeared in front of him. This light and shadow floated and circulated in the room, and finally wrapped around the two corpses in the room.
Strange to say, when the light and shadow entangled on it, the originally withered corpse suddenly became plump, the skin changed from dry bark to moisture at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the eyeballs that were originally like cloudy glass also became clear and transparent, as if It's like being alive.
The entire room has also changed. Originally, everything here was covered with dust, but now it became as bright as new.
But Link knew that this was just an illusion. In fact, the corpses were still corpses, but the magic radiance changed the light structure in the room, making them look like living people.
Immediately afterwards, the man actually started to speak.
"Louisa, I don't have much life left." When he was speaking, the man's eyes were still looking at the magic book in front of him, with that indifferent expression, it seemed that what he was talking about was not a matter of life and death, but a trivial matter of daily life .
The woman beside him smiled, and didn't take this matter to heart at all. She was still carving the fine gold bird in front of her: "Oh, then let's prepare for the funeral."
The man nodded. He stood up, walked to the side bookshelf, and took out a magic book. Link looked over and found that the shape of the magic book was almost exactly the same as the one on the table. It emits a light blue light, and there is no strange sound.
After getting the magic book, the man walked back to the chair and placed the magic book in the middle of the table.
Link noticed that there was a simple and exquisite magic rune in the center of the table. When the magic book was placed in the center of the magic rune, the magic rune on the entire table lit up slightly, and then there was light Constantly emerging from the rune circle, and continuously injecting into this magic book.
Link noticed that the light in the magic circle didn't come out of thin air, it flowed out from the man's hand. And with the continuous infusion of this light, the magic book became brighter and brighter, and gradually made an ethereal trembling sound.
The body of the man on the other side was withering at a speed visible to the naked eye. When he finally stopped the infusion of light, he looked a hundred years older in an instant.
"Honey, these powers could have kept us alive for a thousand years. If I did this, you wouldn't blame me, would you?" The man looked at the woman beside him apologetically.
"No, Russell, life always has a beginning and an end. We have already completed the journey of life, and if we live another thousand years, it is no longer an enjoyment, but a cruel curse." The woman shook her head indifferently.
Link noticed that at some point, the woman's face became very haggard, just like the man's.
"The man and woman must have used some kind of secret technique to connect their lives." He secretly guessed.
At this time, the man hadn't died yet, so he took out a pen and slowly wrote a line of words on the magic book in front of him, but the woman next to him seemed unaware that death was approaching, and she He began to sculpt the lifelike fine gold bird in his hand.
While writing, the man read softly: "I am Russell Sneidel. I started learning magic at the age of 28. I had no achievements for three years. At the age of 31, I got a soul stone by accident. I don't know why, but it finally chose me , because of this, I obtained a powerful talent for mysterious magic. Ten years later, I was honored as the master of the soul. Another ten years later, I began to learn prophecy magic, and I did not achieve anything for five consecutive years. One night after five years, When I looked up at the starry sky, I suddenly received the apocalypse. At that moment, I suddenly understood that prophecy magic cannot rely on forced cultivation, it needs the favor of the plane... "
The man just wrote and talked like this, introducing his own life. Link was also curious, so he listened patiently. After waiting for more than ten minutes, the man stopped and glanced to the side. The magic book glowing light blue lasted for three seconds, and then turned back to the book in his hand. After a pause of more than ten seconds, he continued to write.
"The gift of prophecy allows me to see everything in the future. This is the favor of the plane and the most terrible curse. I lost all hope in my life. In order to regain hope, my eyes traced back the long river of time and kept looking forward. Looking forward, I have been seeing it for 120,000 years before all this turned around."
"After 120,000 years, the timeline of the plane is no longer single. It is like a big tree that has begun to spread its branches and leaves. It has many kinds of futures at once. Among these futures, there are dark and brutal ones, and some are barbaric. Bloody, tyrannical, and even total destruction, but there are also bright and happy ones. There are too many possibilities, but the only pity is that 120,000 years is too long, even if I become a god, I will not live there. Time... I have already seen my end, the plane favored me, and I was able to pass away peacefully. So, I left the book of souls."
At this point, the man stopped writing. He looked up at the direction Link was in, and seemed to be speaking in the air, as if he was speaking to Link: "Latecomer, you have many identities. Devil, orc, destruction Servants, elves, or humans. No matter what your status is, if you come here, it means that you have passed the test of the guardian, and you are eligible to get this book. Take it, latecomers, My lifelong wisdom has an heir."
After the last sentence fell, the light and shadow in the secret room disappeared without a trace, and everything returned to its original state, only the magic book was still humming lightly, as if urging Link.
Link was not in a hurry to take away the Book of Prophet. He stood at the door, bowed to the two ancient sages, and then stepped forward and took the Book of Souls with both hands.
The moment the book of souls left the table, the secret room began to vibrate slightly. The table, the withered corpse, the bookshelf, the small bedroom, everything cracked and then crumbled bit by bit.
In a blink of an eye, the entire ice room collapsed into ashes, leaving only the magic book in Link's hand intact.
'Crack, click', the wall of the ice cave also cracked and was about to collapse. Link had to use magic to hold it temporarily.
The voice of the sword spirit rang in Link's mind: "He is the master of soul, the most powerful lord in ancient times, the ancestor of Celine Fran hundreds of thousands of years ago, and a close friend of Lord Storm, he once persuaded Storm Lord, let him restrain his fiery personality, otherwise he will die badly. Unfortunately, the Lord didn't listen, and he didn't persuade him anymore. Ten years later, the Storm Lord really fell."
Link felt emotional in his heart. He recalled Russell's self-reported life, and truly felt the sorrow of the prophet, because he was too sober to have no hope. What kind of curse is this.
He bowed again to the place where the body of the master of souls used to be, and then he exited the ice room. After he left, the inside of the ice room lost its support, and collapsed into pieces with a 'crash'.
Outside the cave, the book of souls in Link's hands gathered all the brilliance and calmed down. Link wanted to put the magic book into the space ring. After trying it, he found that it couldn't be done. Complete immunity.
Fortunately, a very strong special alchemy leather case was added to the cover of this book. Link hung the book on his belt and pulled it hard, but it turned out to be quite firm.
Suddenly, he felt a slight light in his vision, and the game system actually sent out the specific information of this magic book.

Seeing this information, Link couldn't help taking a breath: "As expected of a level 19 powerhouse, what a terrifying power."
Gathering his mind, Link walked towards the bottom of the iceberg. Grace Salle was still frozen by his space magic, and her injuries were also very serious. Even for Link, it was very difficult to rescue her.
"What should I do?" Link walked and thought about the specific treatment methods.
