Chapter 160 057: Pleading
Is there anything over there?
Luo Xi looked at the room at the end of the corridor in confusion.
Under the elemental vision, he did not feel any strong elemental reaction over there. If there really was some terrifying existence, theoretically he should not be unable to sense it. Could it be that it was deliberately hidden?
Luo Xi asked: "Can you see what it is specifically?"
Nilu said in embarrassment: "I can't explain it clearly, but I feel very bad."
Luo Xi asked: "Is it a powerful soul body?"
This tower seems to be full of various souls, so it makes sense if there is a more powerful soul here. What could it be? The soul of the Potion Sage? Condensed Dew shook her head: "Probably not. I don't feel the presence of a specific consciousness, I just feel a very strong energy."
Oh? Is it some powerful magical item?
After thinking about it, Luo Xi summoned a skeleton and controlled the skeleton to explore the way ahead.
If there is no specific consciousness, then even the most powerful energy is just a dead object, and there is no need to worry about any negative effects.
However, to be on the safe side, Luo Xi was ready to escape at any time.
Before coming here, he had placed the space gem outside. The barrier here has not reached the level of distorting space, and the space coordinates in the spiritual sea of consciousness are already very stable.
If you really encounter trouble that you cannot handle, then the precious space gem can only be used once.
"Da, da, da!"
The bald skeleton walked in the corridor with crisp footsteps. The skeleton walked towards the room at the end step by step. Soon it entered the room and disappeared into the darkness.
Luo Xi closed his eyes and tried to sense the specific things in the room through the spiritual connection between him and the skeleton. Unfortunately, the perception he received still had no obvious characteristics. After trying for a while, Luo Xi found nothing.
However, one thing is certain, that is, the skeleton did not encounter any accident in the room. It seems that the previous analysis was correct, and there is probably some magical item inside.
"Come on, let's go in and take a look."
If it's just a magic item, there's nothing to be afraid of. Just be careful not to run into any traps.
Taking Niluloxi with him, he walked forward, passed through the long corridor and soon arrived at the room in front.
This is a very spacious room. Judging from its layout, it is probably the residence of the wizard himself, with a living room, sitting room, bedroom, training room, and laboratory.
After entering here, Luo Xi also felt the energy that Nilu mentioned. It would be more appropriate to describe it as weird rather than powerful.
He didn't feel any particularly surging energy, but he could feel something there, attracting him deep in his soul. A voice seemed to ring in his ears: "Come here."
"Come here quickly."
"Help"
It seemed as if something was asking him for help, but he could not feel the existence of any specific soul or consciousness.
Following the direction of the sound, we found the laboratory here.
This is a very spacious magic laboratory, covering at least several hundred square meters, like a small square. There are several iron tables in the middle of the room, with all kinds of strange instruments on the tables. There are also several large glass containers around them, which seem to be used to soak the experimental subjects.
The cleaning spell in the laboratory should have lost its effect. After so many years, the entire laboratory was covered with a thick layer of dust.
The sound came from the experimental table where a crystal ball was placed.
Luo Xi conducted a detailed investigation and did not detect any danger, so he walked over carefully.
"Does this mean to press it?"
There is a palm-shaped groove on the table in front of the crystal ball, which looks like some kind of mechanism.
Luo Xi studied it for a while, then summoned the blacksmith Balder, controlled Balder to restore his human form, and then stretched out his palm and pressed it.
At the moment when the palm pressed the groove, the crystal ball on the table suddenly lit up and shot a beam of light upwards. A strange figure appeared in the center of the beam. It was an old man with white hair and beard. He was wearing a gray cloak. The cloak was covered with mottled marks of potions, and there was a lot of medicine residue on his beard. He looked unkempt.
The old man looked deep in his eyes, looking straight ahead, and said in a somewhat lamenting voice: "If someone comes here and activates this crystal ball, it will prove that I have failed."
"I wonder if my potion failed to help Master Russell break through to that level?"
Russell, the Rule Sage?
This is a name that is indelible in the many wizard domains in the Southern Territory. He was once the master of the Tower of Truth, the most powerful being in the entire Southern Territory, the Rule Sage Russell.
No, to be exact, it is the Stigmata Wizard Russell.
At the critical moment of that destructive war, Russell unexpectedly broke through the last shackles of the sage and successfully reached the Stigmata realm. This was the first wizard in the Southern Territory to break through to the Stigmata realm in history.
The wizard who has reached this level has already become powerful enough to destroy the world. The war at that time even came to a halt due to his sudden breakthrough.
However, just when everyone thought the war would end, Russell unexpectedly disappeared at this time and his whereabouts have been unknown since.
As a result, the Tower of Truth and even the Fantasy Forest could not escape the fate of destruction.
"So, this old man must be the Potion Sage Cleo, right? It seems that the Sage Russell was able to break through the Sage Shackles at the critical moment because he took the potion he carefully prepared?"
"Or even if you break through to the level of the stigmata, you still can't stop those greedy vampires."
The old man said angrily: "This group of filthy demons and robbers, we brought the Deep Space Runes out from the void ruins with great difficulty. It took us thousands of years to dig this entire fantasy forest, and countless wizards and apprentices exhausted their lives for it."
"Now that we have finally achieved results, this group of robbers want to take them for themselves and destroy them in a despicable way. It is such a great irony that the order of the wizarding world needs to be maintained by people like this!"
"Glorious land, despicable lackeys! Dirty robbers!"
Deep Space Runes? What is that? Regarding the war that destroyed the Fantasy Forest hundreds of years ago, Luo Xi read in the book that the cause of the war was that the wizards of the Fantasy Forest used their apprentices for cruel experiments.
Cannibalism is prohibited in the Wizarding Union, and acts like using apprentices for cruel experiments are especially condemned by all wizards.
After the incident was exposed, the order-maintaining entity of the wizarding world, the Land of Glory, one of the four major wizarding domains, took the lead in ordering the trial of all the major wizarding organizations in the Fantasy Forest, and eventually a war broke out.
However, from this old man's point of view, it seems that the war was mainly caused by other reasons?
