Suddenly, Veronica on Soshiyang's shoulder made a surprised sound, and then the magic sword in her hand was violently blasted into the earth.
The mud ten meters in front of them exploded instantly, and the shock wave lifted up the river embankments on the left and right like oil paper, spraying mud, sand and humus everywhere.
Soshiyang was startled for a moment, then frowned and stared at the huge silver device that suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
"What's this?"
His voice was drowned out by the fierce commotion around him, and his body was shaken and staggered by the shock wave, resembling a small boat drifting around against a hurricane.
"how does it feel?"
When the noise around her gradually subsided, Veronica lowered her voice.
"It seemed like I used too much force just now."
"I'm fine."
As the boiling mud on the left and right gradually cooled down, Veronica slid down from Soshyan's shoulders, stood on the hardened river bed ground, and began to study the huge device in front of her.
It is a huge silver ring. At first glance, it looks like a bunch of entangled vegetation garlands. Various slender decorations are intertwined like common vines in the forest. Although its natural style is unique, the overall design is still
It has not been able to remove some of the rusticity of artificial carving, and it still cannot reach the level of being natural.
Veronica could read the strange characters written by several strings of patterns on the silver ring at a glance - no matter how graceful and expressive the brushstrokes and carvings used to depict them were, a sneer still quietly appeared on the corner of the alien girl's mouth.
"It turns out to be Bejetan's thing..."
Then she tapped the magic seal on the silver ring with the edge of her sword:
"Why did they come here and build this portal."
"Eldar?"
Soshiyang also carefully studied the magic seal on the ring. The dark blue ceramic knee pads and the silver-white metal collided with each other, making a crisp clanging sound.
"Why are you all trying to get in here?"
Suddenly, Veronica bent forward and almost put her lips on Soshyan's ear.
"Big guy, did you hear that?"
Soshiyang immediately focused his attention. At first, he could only hear the suppressed sounds of humid and mud surging around him, but after a while, he noticed a second sound that quietly seeped out from inside the silver ring.
"singing?"
Then he concentrated his mind and listened carefully for the second time.
The first skill Sevita taught him was how to clear away distracting thoughts and concentrate his mind - after so many years, he had already perfected this skill.
As the five senses gradually become silent, only the singing voice and the mind remain as companions: this is a melodious hymn, and an aria that hides mysteries under the bright appearance.
But he later realized that the singer was experiencing pain, because pain was the fuel that drove the music.
He stood up and took two steps back, his heart filled with disgust.
Veronica and Soshyan felt the same way, and just as they were about to say something, a heavy loud noise suddenly came from the circular pit around them.
The two men stood up and looked around, holding onto their weapons at the same time.
But then they discovered that there was another thing in the mud, a silver ring.
"This is?"
Soshyan stepped forward, picked up the silver ring, looked at it carefully, and then waved for Veronica to come forward.
"Here, look at this."
Veronica took it and took a look and found that there was a narrow circular groove in the center of the silver ring. After thinking for a moment, she pushed the end of the staff in her hand hard into it.
"Although the specific details of the entire ceremony have not yet been verified, I can infer one thing - this portal can still be used."
Then she went through the runes engraved in the silver and their distribution around the door in her mind, trying to find any clues that recorded them.
But after a moment of detailed consideration to no avail, the alien girl deliberately turned her thoughts elsewhere: letting her consciousness return to the silent shrine, and looking at the world with her other eyes.
The great prophet of this ability once warned her not to use it as a last resort, otherwise it would lead to endless disasters.
But now she has to do it.
As the control of the body by the conscious mind was gradually stripped away, the more sensitive subconscious mind in the deepest part of the soul got an opportunity to show off its skills and re-examine the runes in front of it from a previously unimagined angle.
"I have indeed seen similar rune arrangements."
A few minutes later, a strange answer revealed her true identity. Veronica leaned over and squatted down, her tone was very confused:
"But this is impossible?"
"What do you mean?"
Soshyan asked.
"If it is used normally, the energy required is extremely huge, but we don't see it here -"
Veronica lowered her head again and stared at the runes in front of her.
There were some things she couldn't say to Soshyan, she could only explain them in her heart:
"If the Great Prophet already knew about this door and the correct sequence to unlock it, why couldn't he just tell me? Do you have to hide the clues in complicated and difficult guesses?"
In fact, she had seen this kind of pattern in the Great Prophet's place, but it was difficult to explain it to Sosh Yangming.
The Elf girl pulled out her thoughts and suspected that there might be a mistake in her judgment - but the recognition of the pattern was so high that it was impossible to think of it as a coincidence.
As she thought about it, she reached out her hand and moved the sword blade in her hand.
The next moment, fragments of light burst out from between the door leaves, connecting all the locks together and lighting up the outer ring.
At the same time, the originally hazy and distant singing voice became louder and louder, and even Soshyan could really feel its presence.
He looked around in confusion, trying to find the source of the music.
"It's indeed the same combination..."
Veronica still murmured to herself:
"The lock on the door is gone..."
Then, she held the shining gem between the staffs in her palm and recited a few short incantations in a low voice.
I saw red spiritual flames spurting out, pouring into the body of the staff, lighting up the neat runes surrounding the small silver ring, and blending with the blue light shining on the door.
The ground beneath Soshiyang's feet trembled, and the melody and tone of the song became more and more crazy and sharp.
"Get back."
Veronica raised her hand and drew out the staff, then stepped back:
"Don't stand in the ring."
A few seconds later, under the bright light that burned the eyes, the silver ring finally took action: the ring cleverly disintegrated into several silver plates, and then reorganized into a normally functioning portal. A loud song roared from the open door.
Outside, a wide and flat staircase continued to extend inward, disappearing into the deep darkness.
The blue light with the same style as the door body snakes along the stairs, like an attractive invitation calling people to enter the door.
"Let's go, we should reach the core area through here."
Holding Fentian vigilantly, Suoshiyang followed Veronica, walked deep into the door, and disappeared into the invisible haze in front of him——
