Chapter 59: Three Wise Beasts
Everyone in the strategy group looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
After a moment, Malu asked in a trembling voice: "Did you see it too?"
"What the hell is that?" Tel was still immersed in the magnificent scene of the ancient dragon war. Gwyn's powerful spear of sunlight amazed him. The seemingly invincible immortal ancient dragons were like chickens and dogs under the spear of sunlight. This strength was probably more than just a legend!
Leon looked at Drew. This dwarf was the most knowledgeable among them all because he was a magician, and a real magician with a degree certificate. The knowledge he had to learn for the exam was enough to make ordinary people dizzy.
Drew had no time to pay attention to his companions. He kept pulling at his beard and muttering to himself: "No, no, is this how history is?"
The history of this world is actually lost.
Even the Great Library of the Elves, which is said to record thousands of years of history, is actually only a little over a thousand years old, or two thousand years at most.
It is said that two thousand years ago, the root cause of the loss of history was a demon king who launched a war, a world-destroying war that swept the world.
How big the war was, how many forces participated in it, what were the names of the Demon King and the Hero? People today don't know anything.
All we know is that after that war, there was a blank in history. The history before the war seemed to be erased by a mysterious force. All history books disappeared, and the wise dragons and liches who knew history and had long lifespans all disappeared. The elves were slaughtered until only ignorant children were left, and the knowledgeable elf sages were made into skewers of incense.
There were heavy casualties on the mainland, and only a few survived. For a long time, how to survive was a big problem. By the time people came to their senses and wanted to sort out the history, it was too late.
There is no doubt that the history of two thousand years ago will never be known again.
But people's efforts to pursue the truth of history have never stopped, and now, a rare thing that records history still exists.
That's the dungeon.
The legend of the underground city can be traced back to ancient times.
It is said that every underground city has its own story. These stories actually happened and are completely part of history. If the stories of each underground city can be collected, perhaps the truth of that year can be restored.
Unfortunately, until now, only the stories of a dozen dungeons have been explored, and the rest remain a mystery.
People believe that even if something changes in the dungeon, no matter how drastically the change is, its story history will not change.
So Drew thought that maybe what he saw at the campfire was history from ancient times?
Oh my god, is it so exciting?
The stories in other dungeons often record a person's love, hate, and vengeance, the history of a certain race, or the legendary experiences of a certain person. They are very narrow in scope and easy to understand.
And in the Senn dungeon, there was a video of the birth of the world!
Compared to it, other dungeons suddenly seem boring.
"Our world was born from fire? But that's not right," Drew said to himself, "Gwyn, Izalith, Nito, the Immortal Dragon. If they are as important as shown in the video, they should be able to replace the God of Light and the Goddess of Dark Wind and establish the church."
The gods believed in by various churches have existed since before the loss of history, and the doctrines of each church are also the favorite research objects of archaeologists, such as the birth process of their gods, etc. Unfortunately, most of the content is nonsense and basically worthless.
The gods who are high above will not personally explain history to mankind. In fact, in the past hundred years, the number of people blessed by gods has been decreasing.
Oh, gods, have you closed your eyes? - The last words of the former Holy Light Church Pope.
"How is it, do you have any clues?" Leon looked at Drew eagerly and asked, "Is that true?"
Drew shook his head, stood up, and said, "Let me use the necromancy ritual to seek enlightenment from the heroic spirits of my ancestors."
As he spoke, he began to stagger and mutter obscure spells. He now looked more like a shaman than a magician.
The so-called summoning ritual is a magical ritual to seek help from ancestors related to one's bloodline. The ancestors shaken out are random and have varying qualities. The ancestor's soul will give one or two answers, which may be useful, but most of the time only some meaningless sentences will be obtained.
If this magic was really effective, people would have used it to summon their ancestors to learn about history.
Drew wouldn't want to use it if his brain couldn't process the huge amount of information.
Soon after, he heard a strange voice in his ears. It was the whisper of his ancestors from a distant era:
“Dead animals are delicious, and they taste even better when roasted over a fire.”
"Pick up the grey stones by the river and use them to hit other stones. It's fun."
Drew's expression suddenly became tense.
Which era of ancestors did I summon?
He dejectedly ended the ceremony, thinking perhaps he shouldn't have used this thing in the first place.
"I'm not sure. This thing involves too many things, and it's not something I can decide on my own," Drew looked at the bonfire with a complicated look in his eyes. "After I get out, I'm going to go to the Magic Association and report this to the president."
The history of ancient times is hidden in the dungeon of Sen. Who would believe it if I told them?
The mental state of several people was made extremely excited by this video. They no longer looked like the expressionless and cold-faced killers before. At this time, they exuded a lot of mental power.
Originally, they bought a bunch of fear-repelling powder from Gong Qiying, intending to seek revenge on the lion ape, but they didn't expect to get an unexpected gain.
After a heated discussion for a long time, they finally discovered the functions that could be upgraded at the campfire.
As expected, there was another round of exclamations.
The amount of souls required for the members of the strategy group to level up is even greater. Even the lowest-level one, Maru, needs as many as four thousand, and Leon needs as much as ten thousand.
Even if he cleared all the monsters on the upper level by himself, he would only be able to level up by one level.
"Boss, this is for you," Malu handed the giant cursed frog soul she picked up to Leon and said, "You need it more now."
Everyone knows about the mess in Leon's family.
Leon said nothing and used the soul of the giant cursed frog with gratitude. Everyone was familiar with it to a certain extent and there was no need to express gratitude specifically.
He has decided to come here to brush souls every day, and brush as many as he can before setting off for home.
The information about the flaming straight sword and cancellation mentioned the little devil statue and the sealed prison. It seems that we have to explore with these as our goals.
What Leon and the others didn't expect was
Less than half an hour after entering the middle area, they had already found the little devil statue.
There was a circular altar on the ground made of bricks and stones of unknown material. There was a faint light in the center, but there was no response when they stood on it.
Could it be related to the statue?
Leon touched the little devil statue, and the following line of text appeared in front of him:
[Find and defeat the three wise beasts, and the prison will be unlocked automatically]
Not only text, but also three simple drawings of wise animals appeared. They were:
Bear,
lobster,
There is also a large hand with many fingers.
Is this really the original wise beast! ?
