"Click, click, click..."
The sound of Nylid gnawing melon kept coming, and Richard calmed down and looked at the paper with the translation written on it.
He first read the last third of the content he just got, then put all the content together and read it completely again.
After reading it, his eyebrows were raised and his expression was slightly strange. If he hadn't trusted the wizard Circe, he would have really suspected that the other party copied some text from somewhere and gave it to him.
What was shown on the paper was completely different from the hidden knowledge and wealth he expected, and had no connection whatsoever. It even had little to do with the legendary wizard Thoros himself.
What the paper tells is a person named "Thangka". In the tone of a friend, Soros told various things about Thangka, such as the dangers Thangka encountered while traveling on the mainland, how to resolve them, what benefits he got, etc.
Browsing through the content again, Richard confirmed that he had not missed anything crucial. The translated text was indeed "Thangka Biography". He frowned slightly and looked at the witch Sirsi, saying, "Thangka?"
Sersi, as a translator, obviously knew the content better. After listening to Richard's words, he nodded and confirmed and asked: "Yes, it is thangka. Wizard Richard, I don't know where you found these words that need to be translated. But translated, it’s exactly what you see.”
"Then... who is this thangka?" Richard asked.
"He..." Circe pursed her lips and prepared to answer.
At this time, Nerid suddenly raised her hands high and said in a somewhat ostentatious manner: "I, I, teacher, let me do it, I know the answer."
Cersei was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at Nerid, looking a little reproachful and helpless. Finally, she exhaled and said, "Okay, you can tell me."
"Okay." Naide nodded vigorously, opened her mouth wide, and swallowed all the melons in her hands with a few mouthfuls of "ka ka ka ka". Her expression was serious and she spoke with a somewhat serious look.
"Tangka, his full name should be Tangka Modo Philo, he was once a very famous legendary wizard. According to rumors, he is very powerful, but he doesn't like to fight with others, and he is more interested in studying. Things that interest you.
It is said that he was very eager to find out what happened to the ancient wizard civilization that led to its destruction overnight, so he devoted most of his time to searching, digging, and exploring ancient ruins.
By the way, he has friendships with many legendary wizards of his generation, such as 'Blood Wizard Thoros', 'Sky Wizard Kesi', 'Fire Wizard Garton'...
What's a pity is that he died very young, only a few dozen years old - when most wizards were in their prime. Some people say that he was struck by a vicious curse while exploring ancient ruins, while others say that he was poisoned by an assassin sent by a hostile organization. No matter what, his friends were very sorry and angry. They once united to try to figure out the cause of Thangka's death, but in the end nothing happened...
Apart from that…”
Nailid spoke eloquently for a long time, then took a deep breath and concluded: "Okay, that's all I know."
"How about it, am I good?" Naide looked at Richard with a slightly satisfied look in her eyes.
"It's amazing." Richard said, thinking quickly in his mind.
According to Nerid, this legendary archaeological wizard has a good relationship with the blood wizard Thoros, which is confirmed in the translated content.
In addition, he noticed that later in the translation, Soros mentioned from a first-person perspective that he and Thangka had explored an ancient ruins together. However, the ancient ruins were very dangerous. Even with the strength of the two of them, due to lack of preparation, they only explored the edge area before being forced to withdraw.
After withdrawing, he agreed with Thangka to prepare for a period of time, explore again, and figure out the secrets in the ancient ruins. However, not long after, Thangka passed away very unexpectedly, so this agreement never had a chance to be realized.
This record is rather abrupt compared with the rest of the content, because the rest of the record is purely from the perspective of a friend and a third party, objectively recounting Thangka's individual deeds, and this is the only one where the two interacted.
When I first read it, I didn’t pay much attention to it, but looking back now, I feel it has a lot of meaning.
Could it be that this is a hint? Or is this a hidden clue
Really, the knowledge and wealth hidden by the legendary blood wizard Thoros are probably a chain of treasures similar to the wealth of the Black Spirit King, so they are not hidden in his own tomb, but in the tomb of thangka.
Or, to take it a step further, the so-called knowledge and wealth, which Soros calls "the most precious things" on the seal, actually refer to the ancient ruins in the record that were explored a little bit.
This is quite understandable.
You must know that ancient ruins are directly related to the mysterious ancient wizard civilization. Considering that many of the current spells are just improved upon the incomplete spells handed down from the ancient wizard civilization, if you can really come into contact with the ancient ruins and obtain something from the ancient wizard civilization, the benefits will be unimaginable.
To give the simplest example, he is currently studying extraordinary factors, and what he wants most is the incomplete ancient magic scroll, because the content is profound and has great reference value. However, because it was difficult to collect them, he resorted to the next best thing and looked for some powerful and off-the-beaten-path spells in the current world.
If... if the truth is really as he suspected, he really wants to see what is hidden in the ancient ruins explored by Soros and Thangka, so that Soros will never forget it.
Of course, having said that, this is actually a bit far-fetched for now. After all, it is impossible to determine whether there are any clues left by Soros in the thangka tomb, and the specific location of the thangka tomb is uncertain.
Thinking of this, Richard moved his eyebrows, looked at the wizard Sirsi, and asked aloud: "Wizard Sirsi, if I want to know more about this legendary wizard thangka, is there any way?"
"How to learn about thangka? I have a handwritten book here that I can lend you. There are many records about thangka in it." Sersi said, and then she looked a little apologetic, "But you just You can read it here, but you can’t take it away. On the one hand, this skill is very old and difficult to preserve. On the other hand, I translate some things and need to use it for reference."
"Understood." Richard nodded, "Then it's time to work."
"You're welcome." Circe said, turning to look aside and calling her name, "Heidi."
"Yes, teacher." Heidi understood, turned and ran to the study room on the side. After a while, she carefully walked back with a thick book and placed it gently on the table next to Richard.
Richard's eyes fell on the cover of the book, and he only saw a line of text, which read somewhat vaguely: Legend Records.
After reading it, he looked up at Circe with a grateful expression. Seeing the other party making a waving gesture, Richard stopped being polite and gently opened the book, found the part about wizard thangkas, and read it carefully.
