Going deeper and deeper into the underground maze, [Red Blood Rose] discovered that every level of the underground maze had been cleared out and there were no monsters.
Their guess was absolutely correct.
In this city, no one can do it except Yang Yu and his friends.
When they reached the fifth floor, [Red Blood Rose] also sensed the strange magic power flowing downwards. They gradually quickened their pace and finally saw Yang Yu and his group returning on the eighth floor.
With a smile on his face, Yang Yu said hello to [Red Blood Rose]:
"You're here. I was just about to go look for you."
Gordon asked without hesitation, "What was that strange magic just now?"
“It’s not that I want to hide it from you.
The truth is, some things cannot be said too early.
Remember those copies of book pages you got from us before
It’s about that thing.”
Hearing Yang Yu say this, Wan Jing Zhihua immediately couldn't sit still, and questions kept popping out of his mouth like a string of cannonballs:
"Have you deciphered the text? What exactly is written on it? Is there any prophecy that can affect the world?"
"What is recorded above is the truth of the entire world."
Yang Yu's tone was calm, as if he hadn't said anything big.
He and his companions walked past [Red Blood Rose] and continued forward:
“Talk as we walk.
This story cannot be explained in a few words.”
[Red Blood Rose] was skeptical, but quickly followed Yang Yu's steps.
Yang Yu slowly repeated the ballad he had heard from [Drifting on the Lonely Island] to [Red Blood Rose]:
"'Walk along the road where the stars intersect, piece together the fragments scattered across the sky, assemble them according to the prompts, and place them in the right place, and a treasure chest containing treasures will appear.
Under the guidance of the fairy who records the world, you can enter another unknown world and find the key to open the treasure chest.
Only the treasure in the treasure chest can awaken the sea mother.'
This is a legend we heard from others when we were sailing on the sea. "
After carefully reading the ballad, Senasha guessed Yang Yu's intention with his hint:
"Motherfish
I occasionally come across this name when I look up some books about sea-dwelling monsters.
The Sea Mother is said to be the mother of all the Seabreams and seems to be able to fulfill the wishes of others.
Do you want to find the fragments scattered in the sky, awaken the sea mother, and realize your wish?"
Yang Yu said: "Legends become legends because they are too old and the information recorded cannot be judged true or false.
Most legends are exaggerated.
According to the information I have learned, the Sea Mother does exist. In a sense, it is indeed the mother of all Sea-dwelling species, but whether it can help people realize their wishes is still unknown.
All in all, we do want to wake up the sea mother.
So, we need your strength.”
Taking out something like a scroll from the system, Yang Yu solemnly handed it to Senasha:
“This is the treasure map of the starry sky.
There is no way for us to piece together the fragments scattered in the sky and find the treasure chest based on this treasure map.
I can only rely on your strength."
Taking the scroll from Yang Yu's hand, Senasha was immediately shocked by the material of the scroll.
The scroll, which was as long as her forearm, fell into Senasha's hand. It was weightless, white as snow, and felt like icy silk.
Senasha slowly opened the scroll, and Gordon and the others came closer curiously, wanting to see what the map that Yang Yu and the others could not understand looked like.
Dazzling pure white came into Gordon's eyes. The scroll that Senasha opened was completely white. There were no pictures or words on it. It was a wordless book.
After climbing out of the underground maze, Yang Yu and his team continued to walk towards the outskirts of the city, ignoring the soldiers stationed at the entrance of the underground maze and the onlookers.
After confirming that no one was following him, Yang Yu asked Senasha:
"How? You should be able to understand it, right?"
Senasha was very conflicted, but finally told the truth:
“The star paths on this star path map are indeed very similar to some star paths I have seen before.
It’s just that I can’t understand the words that appear on the star map at all.”
"What kind of text? Can you write it down and show it to me?" Before Yang Yu could speak, Sol Rot, who was traveling with him, spoke first.
Senasha did not hesitate. She asked Yang Yu for a piece of paper, wrote down the words she saw, and gave it to Sol Rot.
Sol Rot took one look and immediately answered, "It's for you to touch that place."
"Touch? Like this?" Senasha pointed at the map and panicked. "I think I accidentally lost the map, and a bunch of incomprehensible symbols appeared."
"The map isn't really gone. Anyway, copy down those words for me again!"
Senasha once again copied down the text as Thor Rot had requested and handed it to him.
After reading the text, Sol Roth sighed:
“Even if we are led by someone with star eyes, we may not be able to find the final treasure.
We still need to analyze each problem one by one and correct the starry sky.
Perhaps, this is what the ballad says: 'Piece together the fragments scattered in the sky, put them together according to the prompts, and put them in the right place.'
Anyway, head to the first location first.
Miss, please point to every place that can be pointed at and write down all the words so that I can translate them.
Find the starting point of the map."
"I understand. It's a little troublesome, but this is the only way."
Placing the paper on the scroll, Senasha copied the words on the scroll as if she were copying a copybook.
Gordon and Wanjing Zhihua took a look at the words written by Senasha and found that the words were exactly the same as those used on the pages of the book. They couldn't help but think:
"Who exactly is this middle-aged uncle
Isn’t it said that only the nine-life cat demon can understand these words
Could this uncle be the legendary human-shaped nine-life cat demon?"
Gordon and Wanjing Zhihua couldn't help but imagine what Thor Rot would look like with a cat's tail, and they felt inexplicably weird.
After briefly reading the text, Thor Rot taught Senasha how to operate the scroll.
Soon, Senasha became proficient in writing down all the words without missing a single one.
After Sol Roth translated and marked the clues of each location, he handed the clues to Yang Yu.
Thor Rot is a warrior who is good at combat, but with his knowledge, he cannot interpret every puzzle at will, so this part of the work is naturally given to Yang Yu.
Before he knew it, he had walked out of the city. Yang Yu found a deserted place and sat down cross-legged, pinching his chin to solve the puzzle.
Each clue was extremely complicated, and Yang Yu was unable to completely solve the puzzle based on his own knowledge alone.
Fortunately, Bai Jin and the others all knew a little about magic that Yang Yu didn't know.
