I opened the iron cover and walked down, entering a strange underground space. It was dark here and I couldn't see my fingers. Richard did not panic. A faint red fluorescence flashed in his eyes, activating the "Dark Vision" spell.
In the darkness, light invisible to normal human eyes fell on the retina, and under the influence of the spell, it quickly formed an image, allowing Richard to see without being affected, look around, and take stock of this underground space.
It was discovered that the entire space was about more than two hundred square meters, taking the shape of a hall more than twenty meters long and ten meters wide.
On the floor of the hall, there are many black iron boxes. The boxes have some kind of special paint on the surface to prevent rust.
"Da da da… "
Richard stepped forward and walked to the nearest black iron box. He opened it and saw that it contained a lot of gold and silver jewelry and jewelry.
"Da da da… "
Take another step, walk to the second box next to it, open it, and find gold coins inside. The third box contains silver coins.
Less than half of the contents in these boxes were left, and they were obviously used by the necromancers. After all, research costs money, and in the first few years of being stuck on the island, I couldn't spend it. But later on, with the ability and ghost ship, being able to travel freely between the mainland and the Island of the Dead, the Necromancer needed money in many places.
Although these are not mentioned in the diary scroll, Richard can guess it.
If nothing else, it was a divination woman who was in the port to inquire about ships. How could it be possible without money
Thinking like this, Richard opened the fourth box and his eyes flashed.
I saw that the fourth box was filled with crystal coins.
Well, crystal coins, crystal coins circulated among wizards.
However, the Necromancer has not touched any of these crystal coins, and it is obvious that he does not know how to spend them.
After that, Richard opened several other boxes and found that they were all valuables. Some had been used by the Necromancer, and some were full.
In this way, after walking through more than a dozen boxes, Richard arrived at the end of the hall, where he saw several different large boxes.
The material of the box is no longer iron, but wood. The surface is painted with raw paint to prevent rot. The wood itself also exudes a camphor ball-like smell, presumably to prevent insects.
He walked to the box and opened it with a creak. As expected, he saw that the box was filled with scrolls.
Taking a deep breath, the red fluorescence in Richard's eyes dissipated. He snapped his fingers and produced a ball of oil-green flame for lighting, controlling the flame to float in mid-air.
Then he stretched out his hand, carefully took out a scroll from the box, opened it, and began to browse carefully.
The beginning of the scroll read "Magic Glue of Fire 1". As Richard read on, he quickly determined that what was recorded in it was an introduction to "thermocolloid material".
Picking up another scroll, it has the words "Fire Magic Glue II" written on it, which records the production method of "thermocolloid material".
Pick up the third scroll, the fourth scroll...
Richard kept browsing with a smile on his face.
It must be said that the scrolls in several boxes were a great unexpected gain for him. The knowledge recorded in it is more valuable than wealth and magic pattern props.
But who researched this knowledge
Richard was confused.
Was it some wise man who once existed in this wizarding world
Not quite. Richard shook his head in denial.
The knowledge of the scroll covers many fields, and it is hard to believe that it was researched by one person. After all, all-rounders like Leonardo da Vinci are extremely rare in the history of the earth. Most likely, it comes from a research organization.
Thinking of this, Richard narrowed his eyes, opened all the scrolls in his hand, and saw a mark printed at the end of the scroll.
Seeing this mark, Richard's eyes narrowed.
A black triangle, with an inscribed circle drawn in the triangle, and a vertical line dividing the three pieces and the circle equally.
The symbol of the Black Spirit Empire!
This is the symbol of the Black Spirit Empire!
this!
"It turns out to be the symbol of the Black Spirit Empire. So, this treasure is also left by the Black Spirit Empire? It is similar to the one in the tomb of Alex's ancestor outside White Rock City. The difference is that this treasure is located on an island far away from the mainland. And there are no dangerous defense facilities designed." Richard muttered to himself, his eyes flickering as he looked around the entire underground hall, his thoughts racing.
It must be said that this discovery made him think of many things.
When he was deciphering the secrets of the Black Spirit King in White Rock City, he realized that the Black Spirit Empire was not simple anymore. Various puzzles were connected one after another, which could not be solved by ordinary people at all.
Even things like palindrome numbers and Licrel numbers have been figured out, which is far beyond the level of the Middle Ages. And in the end, after getting the space suitcase and solving the extremely complicated high-level Rubik's Cube, we discovered that everything in the tomb in White Rock City was just the beginning - there was a larger part of the Black Spirit King's secret hidden in the mist. middle.
Stockholm - Moore, Wood Island, this is the place name written on the parchment in the Rubik's Cube.
Obviously some of the secret follow-up of the Black Spirit King is hidden there.
It was out of curiosity and wanting to leave White Rock City that he started traveling. Although it is still on the way, it is basically foreseeable that there will definitely be many and complicated mysteries after arriving in Moore. Only by unraveling the secrets layer by layer, like peeling an onion, can we get a glimpse of the ultimate truth of the Black Spirit King's secret.
Now, under some unexpected circumstances, he came to this island and discovered another treasure of the Black Spirit King.
Then you might as well make a bold guess that this is definitely not the only one similar to the Black Spirit King's treasure. There are many more in other unknown places. Maybe there is some information hidden in it, pointing to the end point.
As for what the end point is, what the final treasure is, and what the ultimate truth wants to explain, it is not important for now.
What is important at the moment is that if you can deliberately set up so many things and execute such a big plan, how strong will the original Black Spirit Empire be
Not to mention anything else, the knowledge contained in the scrolls in the current underground hall has completely exceeded the level of the Middle Ages, and many of them are completely comparable to the technological level on modern earth.
He really couldn't imagine that the Black Spirit Empire, which could develop such high-tech knowledge, would be a brutal, feudal, and authoritarian wizard empire as the legend said.
From this perspective, you will discover more amazing things.
According to common wisdom, the Black Spirit Empire was overthrown and destroyed hundreds of years ago, and then the East Coast now has more than a dozen wizarding organizations coexisting, controlling large and small countries in the region, and absorbing various resources to support themselves.
It can be said that the Black Spirit Empire is the eve of the current East Coast. Hundreds of years may be a bit long for a single individual, but in real history it is only a short time.
So why, in such a short period of time, so little information has been handed down
It seems that every wizard and everyone knows that there was a Black Spirit Empire that existed, and then it was destroyed and the East Coast became what it is now. But what the Black Spirit Empire actually looks like, what its political system is, its population, how many wizards there are, and what the lives of ordinary people are like, are all unknown - it is completely blank, or it can be said to be completely dark.
The Black Spirit Empire was like a big black hole, absorbing all the information and disappearing without a trace.
Even if some books mention the Black Spirit Empire, they are only fragmentary, vague, and even inconsistent. Because of this, when he was in White Rock City, he didn't even recognize the symbol of the Black Spirit Empire. He only found out about it after asking the great scholar Suradi.
This is just the Black Spirit Empire!
According to rumors, there were two other empires before the Black Spirit Empire. The information on those two empires is even sparser, and it feels like two vague shadows hidden in the darkness. Although they are there, they cannot be seen clearly at all.
This is simply unimaginable!
It’s really unimaginable!
It's as if history has been drawn and roughly separated - at a certain point in time, there is a clear separation between the past and the present, and everything in the past has been eliminated, leaving only the present.
This is simply illogical!
But the reality is right in front of us, as if there is a supernatural force, a black hand hidden behind the world, quietly controlling history and everything.
This is very problematic.
To figure this out, the first step is to try to unlock the ultimate secret of the Black Spirit King.
Richard raised his eyebrows.
To be honest, he didn't really want to go to Moore. It was just that there was no other place to go, and with the letter from the cat slave girl Heidi, I thought it would be a good idea to go and have a look, so I set off.
But now, he felt that it was necessary to go there. Even if he couldn't solve the ultimate secret of the Black Spirit King, he still wanted to understand the hidden truth and what it looked like.
The world is becoming more and more complex.
"call-"
Richard took a deep breath and said slowly: "The world is really becoming more and more complex, and of course it is becoming more and more interesting."
"To go to Moore, you have to go to Moore, but... the road has to be walked step by step, and things have to happen step by step. What we need to seize now is to understand the knowledge on the scroll and solve the research that was originally meant to be solved." Richard As he spoke, he was not polite the next moment. He packed everything in the hall into the Garden of Eden and walked out.
