Bai Sensen's bones are scattered in a mess. Some are complete, some are incomplete, some are ancient, and some are fresh. Without exception, they all have no flesh and blood, and the smell that Hanshang can smell is just that of the unventilated terrain.
It's just the lingering aftertaste.
There are also... bone spurs that look like fish tails.
These were relatively new, and there was still pink on them. Han Chang was even sure that this was the source of the fragrance. The smell here was too mixed, and he could no longer identify it, let alone the direction of the question. But Xie Zhe had sharper eyes than him,
He crossed the corpse with a single arrow, stepped forward to pull and asked Yingying
Arms. They were hidden in the mountain of corpses, and the lack of light here made it difficult to see. Wenying seemed to have heard their movements, but there was no response. Hanshang also hurried over and found that her sister's face was very bad.
. She stretched out her hand tremblingly and pointed at Jiao Mo who was kneeling beside him.
Her long hair looked so messy and pale. Did her fading power make the disguise useless? I couldn't believe that when she said goodbye in a hurry in the morning, although she was not feeling well, she was still very energetic, completely different from now.
In front of her is a relatively complete remains, with fish below the pelvis
The shape of the tail bone spurs, and the fins can also be seen. There seem to be some shiny debris on the remains. Looking closer, I found that they were scales hanging on the remains for some reason. The color of the scales has also faded.
, the remaining luster makes people can’t help but think that it must have been a very beautiful color.
Is that... an acquaintance of hers? Maybe, but maybe not. Just looking at the remains of the same kind is enough to make people feel heart palpitated. With so many human corpses around, Xie Zhe will naturally sigh. Especially in Shark.
Among people, they have closer ties with their tribesmen, and there will be almost no conflicts between the same tribes. In Jiaomo's eyes, no matter who these bones are, they are worthy of her silence and mourning, and for this...
Weeping for this.
There was the sound of tiny gravel falling on the ground, one after another. The sound undoubtedly came from in front of them, but none of the three people could figure out what was going on. Soon, something rolled down on the ground.
At their feet, Xie Zhe bent down to pick it up and found that it was actually a crystal pearl. However, they had a special shape. They were not round like ordinary pearls, but in the shape of water droplets with a tip. He knew that this
They are pearls that can only be produced by the sharks. They are rare and rare, and each pearl is hard to find. When the tears fall on the faces of the sharks, they are just ordinary water droplets, but when the tears fall and leave the face, they turn into
Such pearls and such expensive luxury goods gradually formed a hill in front of Jiao Mo. They reflected the faint light in the underground palace and shone brightly in a place unknown to the world.
"Madam, please don't break your body from crying..." Wenying said in a low voice, "Please try to persuade her, there is nothing I can do..."
Xie Zhe and Han Zhang hurriedly pulled her to her feet. Her body was light and airy, as if she had cried for nothing. Her crying was silent, and there was not even the tremor caused by the sobs. She just shed tears quietly.
.
"I'll just cry for a while...it'll be fine in a while."
She stood up, but there was still the sound of gravel falling to the ground. Han Zhang looked Ying Ying up and down and confirmed that there were no scratches on her body, and then breathed a sigh of relief. After looking around with Xie Zhe, Han Zhang said:
"Many of these bones must be those who were trapped to death by those beasts. Mahallaka used people's negative spirits as food, and would even play tricks on his prey, letting them die in the most desperate environment. I am afraid that many people did not
No matter how much physical pain they suffered, they were tortured to the point of collapse even before they starved to death."
"The underground palace has been redeveloped, and the old corpses have turned yellow and become more brittle when exposed to the air. But there are still many fresh corpses, especially... non-human parts." Xie Zhe lowered his voice and considered his words.
, "It must have been done by Wuyong. But, is the magic circle left by Mahuluojia hidden here? I didn't see anything. Could it be that it was buried with bones?"
"Maybe the magic circle is not on the ground."
Wen Ying cast his gaze on the wall in the distance. The walls of the underground palace had not been specially polished, so they were uneven. Only one wall was very smooth. But it was just pitch black and no traces could be seen. Xie Zhe gestured
Han Zhang stayed here to accompany his sister and Jiao Mo, while he stepped forward to take a closer look.
This wall is too big... Its upper end is connected to the roof of the cave, and it extends to the ordinary stone walls left and right. Xie Zhe stretched out his hand and rubbed it gently for a while. Judging from the texture, its material is no different from other walls and floors.
It was just polished to be extremely smooth and flat. There was almost no dust on it, so it must have been
Wu Yongshi's people had cleaned it up. The light was not strong enough, otherwise Xie Zhe would have wanted to take a closer look to see if there were any graffiti marks or scratches. It was impossible for Wu Yongshi to do research on an empty wall, but Xie Zhe's eyes were not looking.
There are other clues. If there is still demon power hidden in it, he will definitely be able to observe those traces.
"The magic circle is hidden."
He turned around and saw Jiao Mo walking slowly. She finally controlled her emotions, wiped away her tears and walked over. Han Zhang and Wenying followed her, seeming to be a little worried, but Jiao Mo was clearly already gone.
It's okay. She knew very well that what she had to do now was not to waste too much time on things that shouldn't be wasted.
"What do you know about this?"
"My understanding is limited. I was just a child at that time." Jiao Mo raised his head and looked at the stone wall, "But I think Wuyonglan must have used some method to make the magic circle image. Looking at its structure... he probably did some small-scale
Tried, but never actually activated this magic circle. Maharaja's original
The body demon power is powerful and can form a mutually-maintained situation with the magic circle. But now there is no such stable power. If it is fully activated, I am afraid that the entire southern country will be sacrificed...or even more, the disaster will affect all the creatures in the Biluo Islands. In the sky
No one in the underground sea is spared."
The others had just taken a breath of air-conditioning when Xie Zhe suddenly said calmly:
"I don't think he would do that."
"Why?" Wenying didn't quite understand. "He is such a crazy guy!"
"What you said is good, but... what benefits can he get?" Xie Zhe explained, "Everything he does has his own motives. Isn't he a madman? Of course he is, but he is sober.
Crazy, knows exactly what he wants
. He only blindly destroys, kills, and brings disaster. He is an evil messenger of killing, not a lie. What he says is half true and half false, and his true intentions are always hidden in his words, making it difficult to detect. Like a tengu.
We were deceived about the matter at the tomb."
"But he undoubtedly longs for the power of the python god's magic circle." Jiao Mo said, "He needs the smallest sacrifice in exchange for the largest reward, to maintain the prosperity of their family, and even to put power above the imperial court."
Xie Zhe paced in place and slowly analyzed: "This is exactly the problem. To us, the South Country is just a gathering of several provincial cities. Although there are many undeveloped new resources here, in terms of quantity, they are still
It is our homeland that has the advantage. In terms of personal connections, the Southern Kingdom, which is now disconnected from the imperial court, may not be able to
Provide him with something. He won't even form an alliance with the orphans of some cult forces. At most, there will be some trade exchanges. Therefore, the life and death of the creatures in the southern country have nothing to do with him at all. He has no intention of getting anything, and there is no need to destroy anything. Presumably
In his eyes, the greatest role of the Southern Kingdom was the magic circle from the beginning."
"Maybe you are right." Wenying said, "On the way, we also met a man who said he was from the imperial court... I don't know where he has fled to now, but it seems that at least he is not colluding with the Wuyong clan." He said
, In fact, over the years, the Wuyong family has been secretly sending people here, including family members and ordinary workers."
"So his goal has always been very clear, which is to understand the principle of the magic circle, rather than to obtain the magic circle itself. Even if we completely destroy this place, it will not help, and Shen Wujun is also very clear about this." Xie Zhe said.
, "After all, if Li Yu activates the magic circle here, it will be difficult to transmit spiritual power to the northern continent, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless he builds the mother-child array." Xie Zhe stopped, "But this is almost impossible. The child-mother array can cross the barriers of space. This not only requires the person who sets up the array to be proficient in the principles of each step of the mother array, but also
Only by deconstructing it can we reshape the sub-array on this basis. Sometimes, the drawing method of the sub-array is even more complicated than the parent array, and the order is more particular. As the saying goes, the blue is better than the blue... This is roughly the truth.
"
"It is undeniable that Wuyonglan is a genius." Jiaomo sighed, "I'm afraid it cannot be measured by ordinary people's abilities."
"Then let's confirm it." Xie Zhe pointed to the wall, "How powerful is the spiritual power that can see it clearly? We don't need it to operate, but we can simply observe it?"
"This... I don't know, but isn't it too risky?" Jiao Mo squeezed his sweat, "It does require a huge amount of mana to fully awaken it, and it is too weak and won't react. But don't forget, it draws strength.
Formation, if the connection between the caster and it is not cut off, he will be squeezed into a mummy!"
"Are you sure?" Xie Zhe looked at Han Shang.
"Well, if you exert powerful demonic power in an instant and don't establish contact with it, maybe you can."
"Let's try it."
Han Chang nodded and took a few steps back, as far as he thought was a safe enough distance. He asked the others to stay away while he held his breath and performed his martial arts. The demon power circulated in his meridians, and a heat flow spread from his body. The flame was the most direct,
It is also the most explosive power. The demonic fire condensed in his hand, and was then shot out with force. After leaving his hand, the fireball began to expand, getting bigger and bigger. When it hit the stone wall, its diameter was already the size of a person.
.
The crackling sparks spread on the stone wall for a while, but soon disappeared. Like a stone falling into a lake, small ripples stirred up, but they would subside soon.
"I seem to have seen some characters!" Wenying said excitedly, "Just for a moment! But there is indeed something on the wall!"
"The strength is still too weak..." Xie Zhe was a little confused.
"Okay," Han Chang clapped his hands helplessly, "If something happens, you have to save me in time."
Having said that, Han Zhang stepped forward, much more seriously than before. He moved his hands in the air, tracing the tail of the flames. Parallel to him, a simple magic circle half a person's height was outlined out of thin air. Xie
Zhe knew at a glance that this was a constant
Continuously transmitting the formation. Immediately afterwards, Han Sheng pushed forward with both hands and shot the formation towards the middle and lower part of the stone wall. A line of orange-red light formed between the formation and him, trembling continuously, and the color was like the sunset on the horizon.
——It’s just much more dangerous than sunset.
The stream of light spread from the small magic circle. Scarlet smoothness passed through the stone wall, and each line was not long. They were parallel to each other and briefly passed over the stone wall, like a group of red long worms starting at the same time and disappearing until they climbed to the edge. Although the image was only
It took him every breath, but Xie Zhe could still clearly see its structure.
