"Ta-ta-ta..."
Jasmine walked up to the giant mouse, took a deep breath, her expression became a bit solemn, and she slowly stretched out her right hand.
A layer of dark black energy covered the five fingers, looking like five dangerous claw knives joined together.
"puff!"
Jasmine's fingertips came into contact with the giant rat corpse, and then with a sudden force, she thrust inwards.
The result was a strong resistance. The entire hand only penetrated a few centimeters into the skin before it was completely blocked and could no longer go any further.
This is obviously the powerful defense of the giant rat coming into play - before, the giant rat only suffered a few skin injuries under the continuous attacks of everyone. You can imagine how strong the body is. Although it is now "brain dead" and its defense has been slightly reduced, it is definitely not an existence that can be easily slaughtered.
After looking at it, Jasmine's face changed slightly. She took out her right hand, selected a spot and stabbed it hard again. She found that there was no change - it was still blocked after it penetrated a few centimeters, and her eyes suddenly darkened.
The others kept staring at Jasmine's movements.
Jasmine couldn't help turning her head and shouted: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you come over and help!"
"Uh, yes." Jasmine's men suddenly woke up from a dream and approached the giant rat's body. Together with Jasmine, they worked hard to cut up the giant rat's body.
There is no doubt that this is a huge project - the giant rat lies on the ground like a hill. Jasmine and her subordinates spent a lot of effort to make a wound the size of a palm on this "hill". Then follow the wound and cast a spell to explore it and find the location of the energy furnace.
Head, neck, limbs, lower abdomen, chest...
Exploring again and again, eliminating again and again, constantly reducing suspicious areas, and locking in the specific range where the energy furnace is located.
Time keeps passing like this...
Richard looked bored, shook his head, walked to the broken stone pillar dozens of meters away, and observed the things that fell out of the stone pillar in the previous battle.
Xizhe noticed his movements and walked closer, also observing what fell out of the stone pillar.
The two of them observed and communicated in low voices. After a while, they reached a consensus - these should be items deliberately left behind by some people in ancient ruins. Most of them are magic materials with unknown uses, and a few are broken. Spell props.
Speaking of which, the value of these things is not low, but because they are too old, a lot of uncertainty is added.
For example, spell materials give people a strong sense of energy, but what they are used for and where they are used are completely unknown.
Spell props are better. By their appearance, you can roughly guess whether they are used for attack, defense or other purposes. However, more than 90% of them are damaged and their performance is unstable. If not, it may become a suicide weapon.
Richard and Xizhe collected the things scattered around and tried to break the other stone pillars. They found that the stone pillars were hollow inside - but only a few stone pillars had something hidden, and most of them were empty.
Finally, Richard and Xizhe collected dozens of items and piled them together.
Richard saw a scroll stuck sideways in the pile of items. He reached out curiously and took it out. He felt that it was cold to the touch and was made of a very special material.
Slowly opening the scroll, you will see unfamiliar characters. They are very different from the common characters currently popular in mainland China. However, there are some similarities in the details, and they seem to have the same source.
"Yuan Chuwen?"
An idea flashed through Richard's mind.
He knew something about the original script: it was a very ancient script, older than the ancient script on the blood seal, and it was a type of script spread by the legendary ancient wizard civilization.
There are currently many people in the mainland studying it, and the witch Circe is one of them, but no one dares to claim to be proficient in it.
Fortunately, there are not many original texts on the scroll. Most of the content is complex graphics, such as design drawings of some kind of device.
"Design?" Richard had a thought, looked at the items in the pile, then looked at the scroll in his hand, and looked around, thoughtfully.
Surrounded by stone pillars, it is obviously a special area in this ancient ruins.
According to Jasmine, there is an energy furnace in the center of this area, which is the core of everything. Once you break in, the energy furnace will generate an energy storm and attack.
Therefore, when the energy furnace was swallowed and taken away by rats, this area lost its original function.
It sounds a bit like... a power station on earth... Richard blinked.
By analogy, the energy furnace is a generator set, and the stone pillars erected around it are transmission equipment. Once you enter by mistake, it is almost like touching a high-voltage wire, and you will naturally be attacked.
This is a complete energy supply system.
In this case, could the materials in the stone pillars be used to repair this system? And the scroll I'm looking at is the schematic diagram of this system, so that I can quickly find the problem during maintenance
Maybe, maybe not... Richard thought and narrowed his eyes... In any case, the real situation here is more interesting than what is shown on the surface.
interesting.
Richard lowered his head and looked at the content on the scroll in his hand again.
Because there are less words and more patterns, and because of his flexible thinking, he can get a rough idea.
Then his eyes slowly narrowed into slits...
At this time, Jasmine next to her, with the help of her subordinates, opened a wound the size of a palm in the heart of the giant mouse.
Jasmine pressed her palm on the surface of the wound, injecting energy into the body to explore, and the next moment she suddenly shouted: "Found it!"
After finishing his words, he raised his hand, and an object the size of a baby's fist was wrapped in purple energy and reached the palm of his hand.
I saw that the shape of the thing resembled a two-story round platform, more specifically, it was a circular seal - which was consistent with the concave shape on the surface of the stone platform.
The entire object has a crystal-like texture, with dozens of dark golden concave and convex lines carved on the outside, and a milky white light shining inside. It looks like a delicate and beautiful ornament, but for some reason, if you look at it for a long time, it will give people an extremely dangerous feeling. It seems that there is a ferocious beast hidden inside. If it is accidentally released, it will destroy everything.
The "One Eye" next to him looked at it, swallowed his saliva and asked: "Captain, is this the energy furnace?"
"Yes." Jasmine said solemnly, then turned to look at Hulk and said, "Box."
"yes!"
Hulk approached well prepared, handed out a palm-sized blue stone box, and put the energy furnace in it.
"call-"
After successfully loading, Jasmine and the others breathed a sigh of relief, as if a major event had been completed.
Then they thought of something and turned to look at Richard.
Richard also noticed and looked at Jasmine and her group.
