Chapter 561 Selfie of the Sun
"Look for it. There should be a mechanism to open the basement. If you just dig, you might encounter a trap."
Balliard did not intend to let Ezreal and others go to the basement by relying on the stupid method of "digging". If the ancient mage was a kind person, maybe when Balliard and others dug down,
At that time, what I encountered was not an offensive magic circle, but an inconspicuous magic circle that isolated the atmosphere.
In this way, Valliard and the others can be made to give up their plan and the existence of the basement can be concealed.
But that Godly Mage is not a kind person, he is a real ruthless person. If he digs it down directly, he will probably be able to destroy the enemy's humanity with a magic circle, such as the previous combined magic circle that can destroy demigods.
Balliard couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be hit. He could only say that even if he was hit, he could break free, but what about those mortals? Most of them would be gone once they were hit, and there was no second possibility.
"Are you looking for it again? It's so boring."
Although Annie did not participate in these things, she was always watching from the side. Even though her main observation object was the Star Guardian on her video player, in her spare time... just a few tenths of a second.
When the time comes, she will still look at what others are doing.
"If it's not interesting, it's not interesting, so I don't want you to do anything."
Balliard flicked Anne on the forehead,
"Get moving, Annie seems a little impatient."
However, after an hour or two of exploration, they did not find any mechanism to open this place. Even Ezreal, an expert, did not find anything special.
"Nothing to do?"
Balliard himself couldn't think of any good ideas. He was not a talented person in exploring ruins, and he had no interest in this aspect. After all, he controlled the dead, mausoleums, etc... He might have entered other people's tombs without permission.
Will it be considered as breaking into a private house, or will the emperor take the lead in breaking the law?
Among all the ruins, the most numerous are the tombs of powerful men and so on. There are also some graves dug by those who are suspicious and seriously ill and have no idea how many graves they dug for themselves.
"...At this point, we may have to rely on Sun Shangxiang and the others."
Ezreal thought there was another way.
"On us?"
Sun Shangxiang glanced at Ezreal in confusion, then quickly turned away his head.
"You are a scumbag, you really know how to ask others to help you."
"..."
Ezreal actually wanted to say that asking for help was not a scumbag's privilege, but he knew that the longer the argument continued, the more likely it was that he would have something to do with Sun Shangxiang, who already had a fiancée.
"How can I help?"
Balliard did not want to get involved in such a thing, and skillfully ignored the facial expressions and unnecessary words of Sun Shangxiang and Ezreal.
"Relying on the knowledge they have but I don't have, no matter how far away the age of gods is, it is still the age of gods in this world line. Some legendary knowledge may be able to play a role here."
Ezreal is not talking nonsense. Even if Sun Shangxiang himself does not think that the knowledge they have can be useful here, Ezreal believes so.
The Age of Gods is not an era that no one knows about. The Age of Gods is the Age of Gods because that era left too many myths and legends to future generations. Ezreal believes that in this world line, there should be
There are also unique myths and legends.
These myths and legends may not be false, and they may become the basis for this ancient magician to set up a magical mechanism.
"Is there any direction?"
Balliard knew how many myths and legends there would be spread on a continent, and there would be no shortage of unique myths and legends.
In this kind of feudal era, a strange event might just happen, and within a few days, one or even dozens of myths and legends related to it would appear.
Just like the fact that Emperor Sima Yi will be resurrected, as far as Balliard knows, there are 1,086 versions, and there are even more versions that he does not know.
"Not yet, I can only ask one by one."
Ezreal walked to a shelf, looked around, and found an utensil.
"Does any of you know what the symbols and patterns on this mean?"
This method is stupid, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work.
As for Ezreal, as long as he can find something related to myths and legends among these countless collections and can be connected to their situation, he will have found the direction.
If you have the direction, even if you find a mechanism that you haven't discovered before, it won't be that difficult now.
After dozens of attempts, Ezreal spoke these words again,
"...This should be...a pattern representing the sun god."
Kevin walked up, took a look, and gave his answer.
"Nonsense, how could this be the pattern of the sun god? This is clearly a triangle. How can the sun be triangular?"
Sun Shangxiang didn't care at all that Kevin was on her side, and that Kevin had found a way, which also meant that Ezreal, a transcendent, was no better than mortals like them.
However, her current figure was really huge. She opened her mouth and roared in front of Kevin, almost knocking out the old man's soul.
"Sun? How did you see it?"
Ezreal looked at this pattern, and it was difficult to connect this image with the sun. Although the sun is round and this thing is triangular with an arc at the base, we can't just connect the two.
stand up.
"Looking at these lines, it is no surprise that they should be part of the sun's eye, and this thing is the uncorrupted remains of the scepter, and it is also a gem."
Kevin said, took out his spear, and scratched the instrument very carefully. In just a few strokes, the original coating on the pattern was scratched off. At this time, Ezreal also saw
Come out, this triangular pattern is indeed a gem.
"...Interesting, how many rooms are there in this place? Does that mean there are eight more pieces of this gem that symbolizes the sun?"
Ezreal touched the coating on the tip of Kevin's spear, picked up a small part, put it to his nose and smelled it, but did not find what it was.
His eyesight is not comparable to Kevin's, but he didn't see that this thing was a gem, but Kevin did.
"That's more or less the case. I found a complete gem like this in an ancient ruins before. It was the portrait of the Sun God."
Kevin also explained how he knew this thing was a gem.
"You should be able to find other gem fragments in this place, and after combining them together, you can get the complete
A complete gem.”
"not bad."
Valyard really didn't expect that these people recruited by Ezreal could be effective. He always felt that these people were just here to eat and drink, and have the opportunity to improve their strength.
In other words, these people want to become familiar with him in order to gain some convenience for their future careers.
But now, these people have done the things that Ezreal couldn't do, the loopholes that were not discovered, and they discovered them.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
Kevin had no idea that he would be praised by Valliard. If he hadn't been lucky enough to see an identical gemstone, how would he have seen it?
"This is just the villain's luck, it's nothing."
"Luck is also a part of strength. Look for objects with triangular patterns. If you are a mortal, don't touch other things. Note that this kind of gem is not necessarily embedded in the scepter, but may be on other objects."
Balliard still didn't want to move. In the final analysis, he was just here for inspection, to check on Ezreal's work, and to take care of things that Ezreal couldn't do.
Sun Shangxiang and others were recruited by Ezreal to help him explore the ruins.
The auxiliary planes of Rune Land are all part of the ruins. Naturally, most of what happens here must be left to Sun Shangxiang and others to deal with. Otherwise, why would these guys be recruited?
A think tank? Valliard doesn't need that kind of stuff.
After having a clear goal, everyone started working much faster, and it didn't take long to find all the other eight gems.
"Can it be put together?"
Valyard saw that Ezreal had been tinkering with those gems for a few minutes, so he couldn't help but ask.
He felt that Ezreal was in trouble, otherwise, how could these neatly cut gems not fit together.
"There is no problem with the splicing. The problem is that the number of these things seems to be wrong. The pieces are not a complete semicircle. There should be another gem next to each gem.
A complete gemstone should be cut into eighteen equal parts, and only nine parts are placed on the utensil."
Ezreal thought while looking, and looked up at the same time.
"If it's the sun, there might be gems hidden on it. Do you want to give it a try?"
"Of course."
Balliard flew up and quickly searched for similar patterns. Sure enough, right above Ezreal's head, Balliard found a pattern.
He reached out and scraped, and a layer of coating was scraped off.
"There really is a gem... eh?"
However, when Balliard reached out and tried to remove the gem, he felt resistance. The gem seemed impossible to remove.
"What? Is there another problem?"
Ezreal was a little anxious when he saw that Valyard had stopped moving.
"Well...this gem cannot be removed. If you want to use authority, it will involve...it is also very dangerous. Can you find out how to use it?"
Balliard tried to use his authority to remove the gem, but he felt a scorching heat, which was a warning from the sun.
