The Secret of the Giant Runes in the Eternal Battlefield Chapter 35 Crystal Ball
After all, the giants had died out thousands of years ago, and Romani was not an expert in the study of giants before. He knew nothing about the language of giants, let alone the encrypted rune messages based on it. "So many people need to know the language to learn it.
It’s definitely not possible.”
"How about I try using Detection of Other Worlds and ask how to learn it?" After saying this, Sophia tried to know the legend, and the designated location was inside the giant tower.
The brief information given by the last spell is that there was a huge tower in ancient times, built by giants. It eliminated the river fall, and not many people studied it. Now the sky is broken, and the nest dragon understands it. Qi Ming is a city, and the soldiers have changed a little... basically I can't understand it.
.
For these runes, Romani had no clue about how to decipher them. Seeing Sophia casting a spell, he climbed up the tall stairs serving giants with difficulty and slowly climbed upstairs.
Understanding this kind of thing was not a little more difficult for Harv than the two mages, so he decided to go upstairs first to see what was there.
The two went up the stairs and saw a humanoid creature that looked a bit like an elf on the second floor - at least it looked humanoid in appearance. He was wearing green clothes, green hair, and green scales on his face.
."It's really strange that someone comes before the hundred-year promise has arrived."
"No, we just came here by chance. Who are you and why are you here? What is the hundred-year agreement?" Harv tilted his head. Seeing that the other party had no intention of attacking, he asked all his doubts.
.
"A hundred-year agreement? Are you the son of the prophecy, or a traveler who passed through Huilong City a hundred years ago?" Romani asked immediately.
"I am a Dragon Vein Warlock, and I live here. The hundred-year appointment is a gathering between me and my old friends." The other party smiled.
"Dragon Vein Warlock?" Romani felt a little impressed. He seemed to have mentioned it in the hotel in Huilong City. A Dragon Vein Warlock and a bard came here a hundred years ago. "I heard about you in the guest house in Huilong City.
"You came here with a bard a hundred years ago." In fact, I simply remembered it wrong, and I really feel sorry for the highly intelligent people like mages.
"Really? I didn't dare to think about it." She just looked at it with a slight smile on her lips.
"Have you always lived here? This is a battlefield." Harv was a little doubtful.
"Ah, I seem to have remembered wrongly. The Dragon Vein Warlock was a human and passed away a long time ago. I blame me for talking nonsense." Romani used the emblem to communicate with Esther's mind and found out that he had remembered wrongly.
"Dare to live here can only prove one thing, I am very strong." The other party's smile became more and more obvious.
"Don't you think it's noisy?" Harv asked bluntly.
"The place where we often fight is still eight miles away from here." She shook her head slightly.
"I see, I've learned a lesson." Harv nodded.
"You live in peace too... My name is Romani, and I am an explorer. May I ask my family, what is your surname?"
"You can call me Elela Starlight." The other person used the Elvish part of the name.
[Elven language? Generally speaking, elves don’t have scales, right?] Romani thought so. [But she said that she is a dragon warlock, and it may be that she became like this due to the influence of the dragon’s blood.] "
Ms. Elela, I dare to ask, what is the hundred-year agreement between you and your friend? And why have you lived in seclusion in this troubled battlefield for many years? Is it to study this lost tower cast by giants?"
"Didn't I say it before? It's just a party. I don't think this war is anything special. It doesn't really disturb my rest. As for this research... there has been no progress for decades, so it's better to sleep." Eli
La covered her mouth and let out a small yawn.
"It sounds numb. If there is no progress, there will be no results at all, right?" After Romani said, Sophia also came up.
"If you want to know, you have to do something for me." Elela did not refuse.
"Then if you need any help, just ask." Harv immediately followed.
"It's within my ability. I'm just an ordinary explorer. There's no need to overestimate my abilities." Romani was more timid.
"What do we need to do?" Sophia was more direct.
"I once lent a crystal ball with powerful magic to the child of an old friend, but he unfortunately died on the battlefield. If you find the crystal ball back, I will be happy to share my knowledge of these talismans.
The study of literature." Elela looked out the huge window, seeming to be quite nostalgic.
"Do you know the approximate location?" Harv asked.
"Yes, this island is so big. How can we find a crystal ball? Do you know its approximate location or how to identify it?" Romani broke down the content of Harv's question in detail.
"If I knew, I would have taken it back myself." Elela laughed.
"That's just random. If that person was carried with him, the crystal ball might be on the body after he died in battle. I wonder who that person is." Sophia asked.
"If you die in battle, you will definitely be taken away. Maybe it has changed hands several times, poor little silver dragon." Elela shook her head.
"That's true." Sophia didn't use any special tone.
"That's right...then does this crystal ball have any characteristics?" Harv expressed his regret appropriately.
"It has the magic power to peer into the mist." Elela also gestured with her hand.
"At least you know what it looks like." Romani asked about the appearance of the item.
"You don't know how to identify?" Elela looked confused. She described it, it was just a crystal sphere, an ordinary one with no characteristics except that it was as big as a human head.
Romani used a secondary phantom to conjure up the shape of the crystal ball in his palm to face Elela.
"That's it. If it's a little bigger, it'll be exactly the same."
"Okay, I remember it, but it's so unique." Romani thought this was too common, and she didn't know why she thought it was a bit ironic.
"Then, if we find it, we will send it to you as soon as possible." Harv immediately promised.
"So... Ms. Elela, do you plan to continue to stay in this ancient tower until your friends come to see you?" Romani paused and asked.
"Of course." She nodded without hesitation.
"How long will the hundred-year agreement last?" Sophia asked.
"It will be next year." Elela said in a calm voice.
"Is there still some time before your party? Listen to yourself, there has been no progress in the research here. Don't consider going outside with us. Maybe you can get new inspiration by taking a break." Romani tried.
Abducting people, after all, it feels very powerful at first glance.
"Last time Sylph invited me, I didn't even leave." Elela refused.
Romani was surprised. "Do you know Sylph?"
"She's just an unruly little girl. Unless she hires an additional elder, she can't defeat me." It sounded like Elela was very confident.
"I saw some history engraved on stone tablets in the dragon people's village earlier. The story about Sylph was recorded on it. It was a story before the rise of mankind, when the war between dragons and giants was not over yet. It seems that I have no idea about it.
There is some discrepancy between Sylph's understanding and the actual situation. Can you introduce the Sylph you know?" Romani tried to obtain accurate information again.
"Didn't anyone tell you that it's rude to ask a woman her age? I'm not interested in her. I only know that she recently became the leader of the red dragon." Elela frowned slightly.
"Recently? I'm surprisingly young...how long ago did it happen?" Romani knew that elves and humans have completely different perceptions of time scale.
"I didn't count either." Elela yawned a little, and then turned her eyes to the giant runes on the wall.
"I'm sorry for the previous question. We will bring the crystal ball as soon as possible." Harv said and prepared to leave.
"But it's better not to have too high expectations." Romani said his dejected words and then left with Harv.
"Walk slowly." Elela waved her hand without looking back.
"Goodbye." Sofia looked back and jumped down the stairs.
"Sometimes I really want to lament that Sofia alone is like an army of monsters." Romani deliberately took a few steps slowly, waiting for Sofia to summon her mount again and move forward together.
"But in terms of strength, it's only at an average level, not as good as you." Sofia said modestly.
"Then I can only be used during the recovery after the war." Harv thought of the strong and unreasonable Alexander and continued to set off towards his destination.
"I'm thinking, is it really a good idea to take a direct action like this? If we are surrounded and suppressed by the other side, it will probably be very difficult." Romani said, he was a little worried about taking this route of action towards the middle.
"Perhaps we should evacuate quickly and conduct roundabout operations after attracting the opponent's attention... But it seems that we are not taken seriously yet. There is no big problem in operating here for the time being." Harv comforted.
"It's too far away, so it's still difficult to make a surprise attack. We should check out the other three research resources first," Sophia said.
"I still believe in Sophia." Romani immediately expressed his position.
"Then keep moving forward, we haven't encountered any decent enemies yet." Harv concluded.
Continuing along the edge of the island, we only saw the bodies of many kobolds or goblins.
"It's kobolds and goblins again." Romani had not dealt with these two races for several years.
"Who killed them? Fighting each other, or the dragons?" Harv said to himself.
"Perhaps the metal dragons are also beaten, and the colored dragons are also beaten. In short, everyone hates them." Romani replied casually and noticed that Sophia was observing the wounds of the corpses.
They were all physical injuries, not breathing injuries. There were puncture wounds similar to crossbow arrows, and slash wounds from swords. Only one was special, it was a huge claw wound, but the fatal injury was indeed a crossbow arrow, and there were no wounds caused by energy rifles.
"In the previous battle, the opponent seemed to have no crossbows, only long-range guns." Sophia said.
"Yes, I remember that the long-range equipment of the dragon team was a gun." Romani tried to observe the traces of this claw wound, trying to see what type it came from. Although it was probably a dragon, it could also be a sub-dragon species.
For example, earth dragons. Of course, the claw marks of other creatures are also like this, but the probability of being a dragon is undoubtedly the highest.
"The dragon may still be nearby, so be careful. But this tells us in advance the possibility of a dragon nearby, so let's move on." Sofia looked at the dense forest not far away and was not too worried.
"Surprisingly, there wasn't even a claw to kill a goblin." Romani was amazed.
