"It's a different dimension" Douglas also thought that this place would always be a gray hall, a black gate, a gray hall, a black door, and no other changes, so after seeing this wooded world, he was slightly stunned.
Fernando flew in first: "It seems that in addition to the gray hall in the world of the door, there are many worlds similar to other dimensions, I don't know if there are also intelligent life." ” "I tend to be a different kind of undead, just like the one in front of me."
Douglas observed the environment and made a rough guess.
At this moment, seven headless dwarves walked up to Fernando and Douglas in gray coffins much longer than their bodies, and a dull voice came from their bellies: "Are you princes?"
"Well" Douglas examined his own defenses, then looked at them inquiringly.
"A prince with a head is not a good prince, and the princess will scold us."
The headless dwarf at the front said with a bulging belly.
Douglas said amusefully: "Headless is good" "If you don't have a head, you won't be troubled, if you don't have a head, you won't be worried, if you don't have a head, you won't worry about your appearance" A hoarse female voice suddenly came out of the gray coffin, and the lifeless feeling around it suddenly poured in from the cracks, condensing into a black gas, and the death power inside rose rapidly, and soon reached the level of legend.
With a snap, the lid of the gray coffin was lifted, and a headless woman in a pure white court dress turned over and sat up, wearing a strange necklace made of red apples on her chest.
But if you look closely, you will find that each apple has a human face on it, which is seven gray dwarf faces and a round girl face, which makes people shudder.
"Give me your heads, give me your heads," the headless woman wailed bitterly, and the thick aura of death began to spread, and soul-destroying sound waves rippled out.
Fernando looked at all this with a blank face, and suddenly said, "Boring. ” syllable The sound of lightning smashing on the ground was heard for dozens of kilometers around the "forest" formed by lightning, and the headless princess was reduced to ashes along with the forest "Headless, I think I've seen this custom."
Douglas recalls the inexplicable source of familiarity, "During the development of the Solal Islands, I once met the indigenous people of several tribes, who believed that the human head was a symbol of life, and if there were still heads after death, there would be disaster, so every time before burial, the head of the deceased would be cut off and burned with flames, which was very similar to the situation just now. ” Fernando did not participate in the development of the Solar Islands that time, and listened to Douglas's explanation, frowning slightly: "Could it be that we are in a dream or a fantasy, so we will evolve from familiar things into all kinds of strange things?"
"I am the legendary pinnacle of the astrological system, if even I can't tell the difference between dreams and illusions, it can only be the action of the god of truth, and the gods of this level do not say that there is no problem, is it necessary to use this roundabout method" Douglas said calmly but confidently, "This is the necromantic realm, and mapping death-related phenomena may be its unique place, which requires us to study its principles and laws." ” A gust of wind drifted by, and a hoarse and miserable female voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Give me your heads, give me your heads" The female voice gradually changed tone, and the ashes on the ground gathered in a whirlpool, and it actually condensed again into a headless figure However, this time it was no longer a white court dress, but a white robe and a platinum scepter in his hand "This monster," Fernando growled in exasperation.
Douglas said with a solemn smile: "Benedict III without a head seems to be much more handsome. ” In a gray wilderness dotted with tombstones.
Lucien was divided into two uses, and while taking the Rhine quickly, he analyzed the crown of the "Ancient Mummy", which seemed to have been specially handled by the Lich King, and was not as easy to crack as rough refining, and Lucien estimated that it would take at least two or three hours before there was hope.
"Wait a minute."
Without warning, Rhine spoke.
Lucien stopped and let go of the arm that was holding Rhine: "Mr.
Rhine, there is a discovery" Rhine moved his hands and feet, and seemed to eliminate some of his weakness, and the recovery ability of the Prince of the Blood Clan was really perverted: "Have you noticed the patterns on these tombstones. ” "Patterns of the ancient Mesh Empire."
The Mesh Kate Empire is one of the three major magic empires in ancient times, occupying the area south of the Gusta Empire, and the magic patterns that belong to it are undoubtedly one of the basic contents of the arcane, and many necromantic magic needs to use similar things, so Lucien does not find it strange.
Rhine leaned down, his slender fingers rubbing the simple and mysterious pattern on the gray tombstone: "This is the pattern of the early Mesh Ket Empire in ancient times, because it is not much different from the middle and late periods, and the effect is similar, so only an observer like me who delves into history can distinguish it." ” "Is there anything special" Lucien was anxious to go to the location marked by Muskelin, but Rhein was willing to waste his precious time here, and there should be a reason why it was worth it, so he asked in the telepathic connection.
Rhine smiled calmly: "Looking for what is left behind by Maskeling is to crack the secrets of the world of doors and the secrets of monsters, and now that we have clues, we naturally can't let them go, we can't reverse the purpose and method."
There is nothing special about these patterns, but it only indicates that the entire tombstone group belongs to the early period of the ancient Mesh Ket Empire. ” "But in this early period, when it was associated with the diagonal tombstone clusters everywhere, it reminded me of the original famous custom of the Methkate Empire, the ritual of returning to the source of life."
"Ritual of Return to Life" Lucien remembered the most famous ritual in the history of necromancy.
Rhine elegantly took out a handkerchief and wiped his fingers: "Yes, the return of life ritual, the early people of the Mesh Kate Empire generally believed that there was an extremely powerful intelligent creature at the beginning, the most perfect life, with a vast spiritual light, he used his own blood to create humans, elves, dragons and other races, so he disappeared in the long river of time, if you want to gain great power, you can reverse this process, fuse the intelligent life of different races, and get infinitely close to the original." ” "The early funerals of the ancient Meshkels followed this concept, making giants out of spirit-rich wood and burying them in the center of the cemetery, while each deceased left only clothes in their own graves, and their bodies were filled with wooden giants, in an attempt to merge with each other after death and become close to the original beings, although this custom has since faded away, many necromantic magic still have obvious traces of inheritance, such as stitching corpses."
Lucien thought back to the necromantic magic he knew, and nodded slightly: "That's true, could it be that the shredded paper that someone once came in refers to a legendary magician in the ancient Mesh Empire" "There is a certain possibility, but it is hard to imagine that such a legendary magician would arrange such a large-scale cemetery group, and after the hard work and adventure to come in, it is just to do this Lucian, you should know very well that the necromantic world is a true correspondence with the main material world, but the location will become chaotic, and this law will be extended to the world of doors, can we think that this is the reflection of different death customs in the world of doors."
Rhine dropped the soft handkerchief and smashed the lid of the tomb and coffin open, and sure enough, there was only a black coat inside.
Lucien thought for a moment: "It's a very logical reasoning, what does that monster represent, it can't be the fear of death in the heart of every intelligent life, and I am more inclined to the mysterious existence of the necromantic realm." ” When he talked about his heart, Lucien suddenly had a stirring spirit, vaguely remembered something, but he was still almost able to see through the fog, so he frowned and thought hard, maybe it was the difference in the surface that covered the appearance of the memory, so he couldn't find a similar event.
"In short, monsters are things to follow."
Rhine smiled and said, "Just wait for the relics of Maskerin to give us more clues." ” Lucien sighed: "Even if I finally figure out what the monster is and how it came about, the biggest mystery for me is why it exists in the way it is, and what arcane principles it is based on. ” "You're getting more and more of a Grand Arcanist."
Rhine laughed.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, as if some monster was about to emerge from the ground, and the tombstones collapsed one after another.
Rhine laughed and said, "It seems that the primordial here has evolved into a powerful undead, Lucian, it's up to you, if not, I'll lend you legendary items." ” The aura of danger pervaded everywhere, and with a pop, the tombstones scattered, the dirt splattered, and a huge blue-black arm stretched out from the ground.
Then, a blue-black giant tens of meters tall sat up suddenly, and doubles, chest, abdomen, and head could see dense and complete intelligent life, including humans, dwarves, dragons, elves, and fishmen, all of which together formed the body of a giant.
The giant's eyes opened, dark red flames jumped, and there was a dead silence in his sight, and there was no trace of life.
Lucien took Rhine to a "precision teleportation" away from the blue-black giant, and his heart palpitated inexplicably at the lifeless dead ashes, which was the fear from the heart of every intelligent life.
"It's just a level of the first order of legends, Lucien, you can't beat this slow and unintelligent guy, its heart is made up of the Fountain of Youth, no wonder Maskeling said there are many surprises here."
Rhine's weakness has not subsided, but his vision is accurate.
In the "Fountain of Youth" psychic connection, Lucien repeats that this is the material that can be used to perform the legendary life-extending ritual "Atomic fission" Thundered.
A huge fireball erupted in the head of the blue-black giant, quickly covering it, destroying everything around it and tumbling into a mushroom cloud.
"Simple and crude," Rheinland commented.
Lucien condensed the "Scepter of Time and Space" in his hand, preparing for the subsequent control, and suddenly, he remembered something: "Mr.
Rhine, I have also seen similar tombstone groups and patterns in the resting place of the Lord of the Dead, does this mean that some of his hidden magic is related to the primordial" Rhine pondered for a moment: "Maybe he has refined his body into the original body, it seems that his real strength is stronger than his performance." ”:
