Chapter 39: This is your only chance

Views:

Schrödinger is really lying on the grass nest, it is impossible not to exist! When you get closer, you can still hear the cat's unique breathing sound, which is very rhythmic like a slight purr. It seemed to be asleep, but Amon was a little confused if the cat was really sleeping

Amon has known for a long time that Schrödinger's origin is not simple or even inconceivable, so although he was surprised, he was not too surprised. Anyway, there are some mysteries that he still can't understand. But what about that bone? It was picked out by Schrödinger from the Ironclad Beastmaster's lair, and he couldn't sense its existence with the puppet eye technique.

Schrödinger must have known something to bring this strange bone back. It's a pity that this cat can't speak. Even if it could, it might not tell Amon the way it tugged.

Amon reached out and pulled the bone out from under the cat's paw, closed his eyes in the dark, and used the puppet eye induction technique again. This feeling is too strange, holding this bone in the hand, it feels very real, but the palm of the hand is empty in the puppet eye, as if there is nothing!

He opened his eyes again and swiped the bone suddenly, a flame appeared in front of him, the red flame rose up and gradually emitted a bright yellow light, illuminating everything in the room. Amon continued to stimulate the mana, and the flame gradually turned white and finally turned light blue. It seemed that the color tone was very cool and contained blazing heat.

Amon turned the bone in his hand again, and the flames rippled around his body like waves, forming a ring of fire. He picked the bone up and down again, and the ring of fire also extended up and down, forming a circle of fire wall surrounding the whole body three feet away. Amon carefully controlled the ring-shaped wall of fire so that it would not touch anything in the room, but it still accidentally hit a corner of the table.

With a shake of his bones, he immediately accepted the first intermediate wall of fire technique in his life. In such an instant, the corner of the table had been burned to ashes, and the intensity of the flames can be imagined!

Amon gasped, this bone can actually be used as a staff, and it is even better than his staff! If his staff was inlaid with a flame elf and matched with three standard god stones, he could barely achieve this effect by using the wall of fire technique. Moreover, this bone not only has a particularly good auxiliary effect on the fire element magic, but Amon also tried to perform several intermediate-level magic that he could theoretically practice, and they all succeeded very quickly.

The sacred stone can be used as an intermediary for casting divine spells, and it can be inlaid with a staff or not, but it will be more effective if it is inlaid on the staff in a specific way. On the other hand, the role of the god stone is not only to inlay the staff, for example, it can also be used as an intermediary for awakening power, making various magical artifacts, etc.

The function of this "bone" is very similar to the divine stone. It has no attribute difference from the standard divine stone, but it can have the effect of a special divine stone. It is simply a "universal special divine stone", and it can also be directly used as a staff.

Amon suddenly remembered that the old lunatic said that the god stone also has a name called "God's Skeleton", which is the crystallization of the remains of the gods after their fall. Could this strange bone-like thing be the real skeleton of a god? Amon has this doubt, but it is impossible to be sure.

It was almost dawn, he held the bone and thought about it for a long time, and suddenly remembered something, and reached out to pick up his staff. It is impossible for a magician to use two staffs at the same time. Amon wants to do another experiment to see if this bone can be used as a magic weapon? He was going to activate it by casting a spell with his staff.

As soon as he picked up the iron branch staff, he heard a cat meow, and saw Schrödinger sitting up from the straw nest, shaking his head at him, clearly telling him not to do that, and then raised a The paw pointed to the outside of the house, meaning let him go out. As expected, the cat was not really sleeping, and seemed to know the mystery of this bone, so it only reminded Amon at this moment.

Could it be that it wants Amon to take out the bone for testing, and it can't be done in the house? Amon was holding the bone in his left hand and the staff in his right hand. Just as he walked out of the hut, he heard many chaotic voices coming from afar. There seemed to be many animals running in the bushes in the mountains, and the village was also a little chaotic. Adult men took up weapons and ran out of the village in groups, not knowing what happened.

At this time Link ran over with two clansmen, and Amon asked, "What's going on, it's such a mess?"

Link replied out of breath: "God Amon! It may be that the flood washed away the cliff, or a tributary of the Youdi River was cut off by a landslide. flooded the mountainside."

It has been raining in the northwest, and the rain clouds are piled up on the mountainside of the peak. It may be that a mudslide formed by a certain mountain collapse blocked the narrow valley mouth, and the flood formed a barrier lake. The water level is getting higher and higher and has submerged the halfway up the plateau, which is the direction Amon walked when he came here.

Amon looked around and said, "Even if the landslide blocks the valley entrance outside the mountain, the flood will not reach here, so why are you panicking?"

Link quickly explained: "We're not panicking, it's the animals in the lower jungle running up the mountain to escape the flood, we happened to be blocking the way to hunt, and we can catch a lot of prey at one time!... Thank you for teaching us the technique of making meat floss, Meat can be preserved for a long time!... I also plan to command the tribe to capture a group of young and docile beasts and domesticate them in the village, so that it will be more convenient to eat meat in the future."

Amon waved his hand and said: "Then go quickly, this is a major issue related to the livelihood of the clansmen." Link promised and turned around and was about to leave, when Amon suddenly asked: "The flood has not reached the mountainside, is it possible to get out here?" went?"

Link: "The road you came from is definitely impassable now, but there is still a road heading southeast to the lower reaches of the Yudi River. You can go around the ridge and go out. It is the road from Medanzo... What, are you leaving now?"

Amon shook his head and said, "No, I'm just asking casually. Go and do your work, I'm fine."

Link hurried away with his clansmen, and Amon walked towards the open area of the village with his staff and bones in hand, only to find Schrödinger running in front of him with light cat steps. When he came to the square in front of the big cave, he saw Schrödinger squatting at the entrance of the cave scratching the ground with his paws. Amon took a closer look and was stunned—this cat can't speak, but it can write!

Schrödinger wrote in Ecu cursive script, not a secular script but a divine script. Both knife script and cursive script have two writing methods. People who can write secular characters may not understand divine script, but those who understand divine script will definitely be able to write secular script. This cat obviously knows how to write, but it wants to write divine characters that Amon can't understand. It has a really weird temper, as if it doesn't bother to write secular characters.

Schrödinger drew only a few simple characters with his claws on the mud floor, and then it seemed that it didn't want to hear what Amon was going to ask, so it turned around and walked away swaggeringly. It's not that Amon doesn't know divine script at all. After all, the characters are all the same, that is, the combination of writing methods has a specific form. He even guessed, and roughly understood the meaning of the line on the ground, which should be "Follow me, this is your only chance."

On the indicator character expressing "I", an arch-shaped circle is also drawn.

Amon didn't have time to express too much surprise, because when he looked up and saw that Schrödinger had gone far, he quickly followed him. Schrödinger left the village and ran down the mountain, through the jungle and around to the other side of the plateau. From time to time, many animals can be seen running in the jungle, and the sound of branches being trampled and broken can be heard in my ears. The panicked beasts all ran to higher places to avoid the flood, but Schrödinger headed to the lower place where the flood came.

Amon didn't know where Schrödinger was taking him, and he was a little worried that it would be accidentally stepped on by a running beast, so he quickened his pace to catch up. But it is not easy to catch up with a nimble cat in the jungle. Schrödinger ran very fast, just enough for Amon to see, but he still couldn't catch up. Amon himself was almost caught in the jungle several times. The beast that suddenly sprang out of the middle hit.

After chasing and running all the way, they gradually got far away from the village. They passed through the misty clouds. It was raining in the jungle at the bottom, and the road under their feet became more and more muddy. They ran around this plateau and mountains for a long time, and finally there was no road ahead, and they could only see the rolling flood below the mountain.

Schrödinger squatted on the hillside by the water, his figure looked like a lion's shadow, and he looked very majestic. He ignored Amon who was chasing him, but looked at the flood in the distance.

Schrödinger stopped running, and Amon finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down to get closer, only to find that the cat had written a few more lines on the ground, still in divine script that Amon didn't know much about. Amon guessed and understood some of the sentences: "The bones... are your destiny... the key... inspire it in the water... the boat... to the other shore."

He asked suspiciously: "Since you want to tell me something, why don't you write in words that I can understand? You wrote the key and the ship, do you mean this bone? It is the key to open some door, and is it What ship?"

Schrödinger didn't answer what he meant, but majesticly raised one front paw and pointed into the distance. Amon looked up in the direction the cat pointed, and saw a familiar mountain, which was another peak he saw on the way. At that time, Amon didn't know which way to go. It was Schrödinger who led him to the plateau where the caveman tribe was located.

Looking at the mountain from a high place at this moment, Amon understood that it was impossible for him to climb up at that time. The cliffs out of the water are so sharp that there is no place to climb. Although far away, you can also see the white waves rolled up by the flood water on the rocks. The clouds in the mid-air were torn apart close to the cliff, and the airflow near the mountain wall was extremely violent and complicated, making it difficult for even birds to fly safely.

Schrödinger didn't move and didn't speak, still pointing his paw at the mountain far away from the flood. At this time, the torrent in the mountains was slowly calming down, no longer rushing in one direction. There are huge eddies in the water, which is a sign that the water level has risen to the highest point. The rain was still falling, and the wind in the mountains had no definite direction, swirling and passing around, rolling up waves on the water.

Amon understood what Schrödinger meant, it was asking him to throw that bone into the water to stimulate it. He suddenly remembered the advice of the old lunatic, Schrödinger was the only guide who could lead him to find the whereabouts of Bell. Could it be that the cat was pointing the way? Bell was on that high mountain far away

Even if there was only a slight possibility, Amon had no choice but to try. He decisively threw the bone on the water, but he didn't know how to stimulate it, so he waved his staff to communicate and stimulate it. The power of the god stone.

The bone floated lightly on the water, suddenly swirled and spread out against the wind, turning into a long and narrow crescent-shaped "boat". This "ship" is invisible to the eyes, and only in mana surges can one perceive an invisible space on the water, outlined in the shape of the ship.

While Amon was dumbfounded, Schrödinger jumped onto the boat lightly, as if he was stepping on the surging flood. It still raised its front paws, pointing in a distant direction. It took a while for Amon to come back to his senses, and he walked onto the invisible boat with his staff.

There was no rudder, no oars, and no sails. Schrödinger pointed in a direction, clearly telling him to go there.

It took Amon a while to become familiar with how to control such a "ship" with a staff, which was what the old lunatic once told him - it is not necessary to call the wind and rain, but to communicate and operate the various forces of nature. His staff is inlaid with the charm of the wind and the blue water core, which is suitable for manipulating the elements of air and water, and controlling the boat on the flood in the wind and rain.

It was very difficult for Amon to control this invisible big ship. Even with the help of a magic staff, he used all his strength and almost reached the limit to stabilize it in the vortex and surge, and slowly moved towards the direction Schrödinger pointed. , He couldn't help feeling a little ashamed. In fact, Amon didn't know that it was a miracle that he could control this "ship".

Ge Lie once steered the blue boat to cross the flood. It was a precious magic weapon given to him by the old lunatic. Only a great magician could activate and use it. However, the invisible big boat formed by this bone could be controlled by a third-level magician. division manipulation. As a magical artifact, the higher the level and the more magical the effect, the higher the requirements for the user. When performing the same function, the lower the requirements for users, the more precious and rare the utensils are.

Amon still doesn't quite understand this, and it's impossible for other third-level magicians to have a staff like his.

The invisible big ship swayed forward in the wind and waves, and Schrödinger, who had been pointing forward, suddenly turned his head and glanced into the flood. Immediately, Amon also heard a wailing roar, and turned his head to see a few huge beasts floating with the flood and struggling in the vortex. Amon actually knew them, they were the Ironclad Beast King and those big Ironclad Beasts who had fought with him.

Iron armored beasts are good at diving and swimming, but they are reptiles rather than fish after all, and the water pool they live in is submerged by flash floods, and being involved in such a mighty flood is also life-threatening. They were exhausted after struggling for such a long time, but the earth element magic they are good at has almost no escape effect in the boundless water.

The iron-clad beastmaster seemed to have discovered an invisible space ship passing by in the distance. It screamed vigorously, and struggled in the water, raising its long tail and shaking it from side to side, as if calling for help.

"Can I save them?" Amon asked Schrödinger at the bow.

Unexpectedly, Schrödinger, who always ignored Amon's words, nodded at this moment.
