Seeing the Atlas Court here was something Luo Zhen never expected.
As one of the three major departments of the , known as the Institute of Accumulation and Measurement, the Atlas Institute is the originator of magic and a group of alchemists who analyze the principles of the world. Although they are far away from the crowd and alienated from being " The clock tower at the heart of the Magic Association, but it is an organization that has existed since before the era. Like the Wandering Sea, it is called the prototype of the Magic Association.
Speaking of which, the establishment of Chaldea is also related to the existence of Atlas Academy.
After all, Chaldea is an organization that combines magic and science. It can be said that it is very different from the concept of an association that only advocates mystery. Its philosophy is relatively similar to Atlas Academy.
Because the lack of magic circuits is a common characteristic of the alchemists of Atlas Academy, they do not rely on magic power in the process of learning magic, but rely on a large number of props, and even use "souls" as pseudo-spirits as Looking at observable energy, create life forms with magic circuits and let them serve themselves.
“We don’t need to be the strongest, we just need to create the strongest.”
This is the creed of the alchemists of Atlas Academy.
Therefore, they not only created a variety of artificial humans, but also created numerous magic costumes. They are known as the unparalleled storage of magic costumes on earth. There are even weapons in it that are so terrifying that they can destroy the world.
Chaldea's founding concept largely borrowed from the model of the Atlas Academy, and even many technologies were successfully acquired with the support of the Atlas Academy.
For example, the technology of the Trismegistus, a spiritual calculation device that can transform human beings into spiritual children and send them to a singularity to realize the transfer of spiritual children, is provided by Atlas Academy.
In other words, without the Atlas Academy, Chaldea would not have the technology to transfer souls at all. Even the proof of existence after the transfer of souls could only be achieved through 's intervention in the past. It can even transfer and recalculate souls to the real world outside the computer world, and its performance is extremely superb.
Without it, then, faced with the crisis of the incineration of human nature, mankind might really have no hope at all, and would have been burned out along with human history.
Matthew had obviously thought of this too.
"Senior..."
Suddenly, Ma Xiu turned his attention to Luo Zhen.
This means that Ma Xiu wants Luo Zhen to give instructions.
In this current situation, do we need to say what kind of instructions should be given
"go in."
Luo Zhen made the decision without hesitation.
"Yes, please follow me closely."
Ma Xiu immediately stood in front of Luo Zhen, setting up a shield with one hand and holding Luo Zhen with the other, his face tense.
Next, the two of them will enter the headquarters of an organization that can be called the prototype of the "Magic Association". It is believed to have weapons capable of destroying the world. In addition, the other party is notoriously xenophobic. As a Chaldean, , it is understandable that Mashu, who has a full understanding of it, would feel like facing a powerful enemy.
You must know that the other party is an organization that existed before the era, and its inheritance lasts longer than the two-thousand-year-old clock tower. If you trace its origins, you may have to go back to an era when the mystery has not begun to fade away, or even to the age of the gods.
In this case, even for the followers, this organization can be regarded as a behemoth, so be careful and you will not make a big mistake.
Luo Zhen was also not pretentious, with a hint of seriousness on his face. Although he didn't really need Ma Xiu's protection, he still followed Ma Xiu and stepped into the Atlas Courtyard under Ma Xiu's protection.
... ... ... ...
It is not without reason that Atlas Academy is called the "Giant's Crypt".
At least, after Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu entered the Atlas Courtyard, what greeted them was a grotto that was no different from the adjective "cellar".
It was a cave-like square that could lead to the depths.
As soon as Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu entered it, they immediately saw many humans lying in the square.
"Woo..."
"Woo..."
I saw human beings dressed exactly like the mountain people lying on the ground, as if they were having a nightmare, and their expressions looked a little depressed.
"The lost mountain people...!"
Mashu exclaimed.
These people are the mountain people who fled into the desert.
But, for some reason, they all became like this.
"Senior, what happened to them?"
Matthew quickly stepped forward and checked the body of the mountain people, but found nothing abnormal.
Luo Zhen noticed a lot of things.
"Don't worry, they are fine. They are just haunted by undead or resentful spirits. Although they are not harmed, they are trapped in a nightmare from which they cannot wake up."
Luo Zhen used the ability of "Spiritual Vision" to see the miasma emanating from the bodies of many mountain people.
This is a typical state of mind and soul affected by miasma.
"In other words, are there undead and resentful spirits here?"
Matthew asked.
"No, if there are undead and resentful spirits guarding here, they won't just be plagued by miasma. They may have died long ago, not to mention that this is Atlas Academy. Generally speaking, it is impossible to cause any death. Spirit or resentful spirit.”
Luo Zhen shook his head.
"So what exactly are the mountain people here...?"
Matthew was confused.
In response, Luo Zhen's eyes flashed slightly.
"If I guess correctly, the undead and resentful spirits that caused the mountain people to become like this should not have arisen naturally in the Atlas Courtyard, but were summoned by someone and attacked them."
Luo Zhen said this, raised his head and looked forward.
"am I right?"
Luo Zhen obviously didn't say this to Ma Xiu, but to the third party present.
"...!"
Ma Xiu reacted instantly, quickly set up his shield, and stood in front of Luo Zhen.
In this moment...
"Being able to judge the cause and effect of an incident based on the state of a group of tiny humans, and also be aware of my existence, is truly a human warrior who has passed through five singular points along the way, arrived here, and received the attention of Lord Osmandis. Lord, amazing!”
With the sound of such a pleasant voice, ahead, in the corridor leading to the depths of Atlas Courtyard, a figure slowly walked out in the darkness.
It was a man with scantily clad clothes, dark brown skin, and extremely rich purple hair. The hair was so thick that it even looked like it formed a cloak. There were two bundles tied in front of him, and the other two bundles were like rabbits. A girl who is tied up like a girl with gold ornaments all over her body.
The girl held a staff, walked in an upright manner, raised her head and held her chest high, and walked towards this side.
From it, an atmosphere of nobility, elegance, and greatness permeates the air.
The girl's face was full of arrogance and confidence.
Then...
"ah!"
With a rapid scream, the girl suddenly tripped over a threshold and fell hard to the ground.
"..."
"..."
Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu, who were on guard as if facing a formidable enemy, opened their eyes wide on the spot.
Then, speechless.
