Chapter 344 Ancient Murals
However, the exploration of ruins in this life is probably much more complicated than in the previous life.
In the previous life, at least only Ryan, the child of destiny, broke in, and he was being hunted.
In this life, a large number of people gathered here, and even under the guidance of the academy competition rules, they dug three feet deep into the ground to explore the entire ruins.
This would be outrageous if nothing unexpected happened! Of course, Avis knew in his heart that the source of this situation was probably from himself.
Due to a series of chain reactions triggered by his actions, [Stargazer] and other eighth-level peak prophets temporarily intervened and interfered with the direction of fate.
But even though he knew that he would come into conflict with these high-level prophets sooner or later, he couldn't just do nothing. He could only say that his stance was different.
Shaking his head secretly, Anvis held the magic amulet on the clone's chest, whispered a spell in the Gumani language, and made three points in the shape of a regular triangle on his chest with his right hand.
"Anvis, what are you doing?"
Noticing Avis's actions, Claire checked the environment on both sides of the corridor with the light of the magic lantern. After confirming that there was no danger around, she asked curiously.
Although Avis claimed to be a 'clone', after careful sensing, Claire found that she could not detect anything wrong with Avis.
"This is a simple but very ancient mysterious ritual, used to pray for better luck in the future."
Avis smiled and explained to the confused girl.
"Really? This is the first time I've heard of this ritual. How effective is it?"
Hearing this, Claire looked at Avis with a hint of surprise.
The mysterious ritual that even she had never heard of must be the precious secret magic knowledge passed down by the four major families. The effect must be very powerful!
"This...it works if you believe it! As long as you believe it will work, it will work to some extent."
Under the gaze of the girl's blue eyes, Anvis smiled a little awkwardly.
"It's not the secret knowledge you think. If you want to learn it, I can teach you."
In fact, this was a mysterious ritual that once circulated among the player community.
I don't know where it originated, but it suddenly became popular one day.
As for its effect...
Let’s put it this way, the effect of using this ritual in this world is no different from using it on Blue Star.
"Hold the pendant in front of your chest, chant in Gumani 'May the eternal glory return', and then tap three times in a triangle on your chest.
If you wish, you can also click three times after reciting the mantra while thinking of what you want to happen.
After briefly explaining the entire process of the ceremony to the girl, Anvis added one final sentence.
"Like this?"
Claire nodded seriously and did the same thing as Avis had just done.
In this relic that clearly hides a crisis, even if this mysterious ritual of the school of mystery adds only a little bit of luck, it is better than doing nothing.
At this moment, the passage in front of the two of them suddenly changed.
Under the warm yellow light of the lanterns, the corridors on both sides suddenly began to widen, and some silver-white lines gradually appeared on the originally plain gray-white rock walls.
If you look closely, you can see that the patterns seem to be a series of very simple murals.
"Is this the effect of the ritual? It's really good."
As she spoke, Claire carefully brought the light close to the wall, trying to decipher the content of the mural.
Most of the time, the murals in the ruins are very valuable information. They often record the function of the ruins, its specific structure, the identity of the original owner of the ruins, its history, culture, etc.
Like the carvings on the surface, the murals here have simple lines but still have the elegant and gorgeous style unique to the high elves.
As the two continued forward, more murals appeared before their eyes.
The first mural depicts many high elf wizards wearing robes and holding long-handled staffs fighting against some strange creatures.
Those creatures have an appearance that is completely different from ordinary surface creatures, and there are many types.
But they usually have a huge mass-like body, wrinkled skin, multiple tentacles of varying lengths with flower-like tips, and some weird star-shaped and dot-shaped protrusions. That weird posture does not seem to exist for survival on the ground, but more like a biological structure from the deep sea.
The second mural was of a magnificent floating city floating in the clouds. A thick column of magic power erupted from the bottom of its shield and bombarded an equally huge strange creature.
The third mural has a wider field of view, showing a large group of floating cities forming an array, fighting against strange creatures that almost cover the entire sky.
The fourth picture returns to the individual, and a female high elf wizard, holding a huge unknown eyeball, walks into the laboratory with another wizard.
When we reached the fifth mural, the situation was strangely complete and completely dark.
Then, in the sixth mural, the lines depicting the content suddenly turned into an ominous dark red, depicting only a high elf wizard with a strange expression.
When the light from the lantern dimly illuminated the sixth mural, the mage's scarlet eyes suddenly turned! With strong malice, he looked straight at the two of them! "Scare!"
This sudden change startled the two of them. Avis instinctively raised his hand to cast a high-level expulsion of evil spirits, while Claire instantly cast a protection against evil.
But the next moment, feedback came that the spell effect had no target.
When the two looked carefully again, the mural had returned to its original state.
"Illusion magic?"
Avis became alert and activated another ring, casting a high-level phantom dispel spell, but it was also ineffective.
"No, I'm afraid there are some terrible things that have set their sights on us."
Claire shook her head solemnly; she seemed to have some experience with this kind of situation.
“These murals should be the history that this city has experienced.
After a terrible war in ancient times, this city somehow got separated from the team and ended up here. "
As the two explored, new murals appeared in front of them.
It was an open round door, a style that the two were very familiar with. Several wizards were adding seals to it, while using magic to block out the living darkness inside the door.
Seeing this mural, the two finally stopped.
In the corridor not far in front of the two, traces of space distortion were faintly visible in the air.
Even if you just stand at a distance and watch, your mental power will feedback a feeling of extreme danger.
"Space-time ripple isolation layer."
After careful identification, Avis accurately called out the scientific name of the obstacle ahead.
It is a highly mysterious protective layer, usually used to isolate certain extremely dangerous things and prevent accidental leakage.
