"...The road leading to 'immortality' is shown in front of us. If! The experiment goes well, we will break through the limits of human life..."
"... During the experiment, I accidentally discovered a strange and interesting world, which is full of undead creatures, chaotically reflecting everything in the main material world, except life... After several explorations, I found
There is a majestic palace complex deep in the realm of the dead. It is guarded by more than the legendary number of dead souls from the three major magic empires. Fortunately, most of them have no intelligence, so I was able to sneak in quietly and see the palace that shows the most essence of the soul.
The mysterious 'curtain,' or, as you might call it, the 'fireplace,'..."
"...While studying the Soul Curtain, an ancient mummy wearing a golden crown discovered me. Its defense was extremely abnormal. I couldn't break out for a while, so I had to hide in the gray tunnel behind the Soul Curtain. In addition,
I didn’t dare approach the entrance on one side, because it gave me a premonition of extreme danger, and believing in one’s premonition is the foundation for a prophet to survive..."
"...This is simply a 'world of doors,' with gray halls and endless black doors. Fortunately, behind some doors are all kinds of weird worlds, with weird monsters and precious materials..."
"...···I discovered some familiar and strange magic patterns, and a world that I couldn't believe. How could it exist here? I can't even dream of it... My research and experiments have
I have made breakthrough progress, but I am getting more and more dangerous premonitions here. Maybe I should find some old friends to explore together. The ancient mummies outside should also be relaxed..."
"... After a long exchange, eight old friends including Viken, Macleod, Thorins, Albert, Eloise, and Eugenia understood the preciousness of the undead world and joined
The adventure team I organized, Wilfrid is temporarily busy and unable to go, so we can only wait for the next time..."
"... The nine of us come from different empires, and our combined strength is equivalent to one-third of the entire magical society. However, I felt strongly uneasy before setting off. So I used the Mirror of Destiny to do a divination.
Seeing one's own possible destiny and 'the unbeliever who walks between light and darkness,...'
The previous content was similar to the notes Lucien saw in the Grand Cross Mystery Lock, but it was more detailed, making up for many of the details. It also made Lucien understand that there were nine legendary magicians exploring the world of the dead at that time.
, five of them are legendary third-level, and four are legendary second-level. The number may not reach one-third of the total number of legendary magicians at that time, but it is more than enough to count based on their strength. No wonder their disappearance has caused the three major magic empires to
Falling into a state of disintegration.
"Nine legendary magicians disappeared here. The world of the door is really a scary place." Rhine and Lucien were very close, guarding the door while reading notes. "But the overall strength is still not as good as yours."
The team for this adventure, the existence of the pinnacle of legend, even if calculated based on the entire history of magic, there are no more than ten."
Lucien nodded slightly, said nothing, and continued to look through his magic notes while seizing the time to decipher the crown of the ancient mummy.
"On the third day in the door world, we found some strange ghost creatures, which are very similar to our experimental results. If not, it would be almost impossible for us to discover them. I believe that studying them will help our experiments.
Further breakthroughs...”
"On the fifth day in the door world, Viken discovered some relics. Someone had come in!"
"...... The 'Immortal Secret Chamber' mentioned in the leftover items is definitely at the entrance of the illusory ripple package. Because it is the only place that meets the described characteristics, the secret of immortality. I never thought that we would come into contact with the secret of immortality! Before, I just
They want to break through the limitations of life and become immortal in a sense! The three guys with rare smiles, Viken, Macleod, and Eugenia, were also excited and incoherent, not to mention the others! And the owner of the leftover items
Have you already gone to the Immortal Chamber and truly achieved immortality?"
"This discovery made us so excited that we couldn't calm down to experiment. We decided to try to explore the Immortal Chamber first..."
"On the ninth day of the Gate World, the passage leading to the Immortal Chamber is something beyond our imagination. We watched helplessly as Thorins and Eugenia decomposed and disappeared there. They went through many times.
Dangerous, but they died in such a dazed manner... No! We are not willing to give in! They must have been full of regrets and unwillingness when they died, and they may need special methods to pass through the tunnel!"
Lucien let out a breath. It seemed that two legendary magicians died in the passage on the other side.
"On the tenth day in the Gate World, we calmed down to study the leftover items, and after consuming the 'Mirror of Destiny' again, we finally discovered the huge hidden laboratory..."
"The one who came in before us, studied the strange ghost creatures first, and found the way to enter the 'Immortal Chamber' first was Lord Thanos!"
Lucien couldn't help but twitch his fingers. "Sun King" Thanos was really the most prominent figure in the later period of the ancient magic empire. He was the first to discover the "Dead World" and the "Immortal Chamber of Secrets"!
He has the title of the most powerful magician in the history of the galaxy, and has the reputation of being the closest to a god. However, he fell sadly at the peak, making history readers sigh with regret.
In history books, the fall of the "Sun King" is called a symbol of the transformation of magical society from prosperity to decline.
"It turns out that the Sun King did not die, but also disappeared here. The ancient Sylvanus Magic Empire probably announced his death during an experiment in order to stabilize people's hearts." Lucien had a strange sense of satisfaction in solving a historical mystery.
.
Sun King Thanos disappeared here... Suddenly, these words flashed through Lucien's mind like lightning, and all the familiar feelings from before suddenly merged into a crazy tide and rushed open the floodgates of memory.
"Yes, Sun King Thanos's 'devil' experiment! People who are projected by the devil in their hearts will gain strength higher than themselves! For middle and low-level people, the improvement brought by this kind of projection may go beyond several levels.
But at high levels, there are often only two levels, one level, or even half a level improvement. The legendary field should be similar! No wonder I feel so familiar with the situation of 'monsters, who are exactly one level higher than the target character!'
"It's just that 'Devil, the projection is in one's heart, and what grows is one's own strength,' but there is a real external monster in the door world, so I didn't think of it for a moment!"
Rhine noticed Lucien's shock and asked, "What's wrong?"
Through the spiritual connection, Lucien fully recounted his speculation.
Rhine suppressed his smiling and leisurely expression, and thought thoughtfully: "The seven ancient devils, I once explored the ancient ruins in the deepest part of hell. In retrospect, they are quite similar to this monster. They also cannot reach the level of gods. Likewise,
It is difficult to eliminate, and it is also good at spying on the mind and memory. However, this monster did not affect our mind and character, nor did it improve our strength. Instead, it strangely separated the two, which is fundamentally different."
"Perhaps it cannot be projected into the hearts of legendary level powerful people, and can only deceive and fight in an explicit way. From this perspective, I can understand why the scraps of paper left by the legendary magician are so desperate, crazy, and hysterical.
, because when they were weak, they were gradually influenced by monsters, invaded their hearts, and their personalities were distorted." Lucien continued to speculate.
Rhine nodded slightly: "It makes sense, but why didn't it destroy the notes and fragments? Why did we find the leftover items so easily?"
He asked Lucien about his previous questions.
"Creating a sense of panic?" Lucien frowned, "It's better to continue reading the notes. Maybe we can completely solve this mystery."
"On the eleventh day in the Gate World, according to Viken's suggestion, everyone deleted all records about this laboratory in their magic notebooks, leaving no possibility of inadvertent leakage. Only when they arrive at the laboratory can they access the information.
, I agree with this very much. I have deleted some things that were recorded before. I can only skip some things in future records... Finally, allow me to pay tribute to Lord Thanos. Although he failed, he illuminated
As we move forward, he is worthy of being called the greatest magician. His fall is the greatest loss in the history of magic..."
"On the fifteenth day in the gate world, we collected strange ghosts and began to follow Lord Thanos's method to create media and explore ways to affect ourselves, so as to change the 'state' and enter the 'immortal chamber'..."
"On the twenty-sixth day in the door world, something seems to have gone wrong in the experiment.
'The medium has turned into a terrifying devil! A ghost wandering in the world of the door! We worked together to repel it..."
"On the twenty-ninth day in the door world, Viken was afraid and wanted to leave. He said like crazy that the devil was more terrifying than we imagined..."
"On the 30th day in the Gate World, Viken disappeared. What a coward..."
"On the 31st day in the Gate World, Albert disappeared and he also escaped?"
"On the 32nd day in the Door World, Eloise also disappeared. The matter may be more troublesome than we thought. I suggest leaving the Door World first..."
"On the afternoon of the 32nd in the Gate World, I was deceived by that monster. It was so powerful that it could actually disguise itself. MacLeod also disappeared..."
"On the 34th day in the Gate World, we were blocked here by monsters. We found the puppet components left by MacLeod. He may have wanted to express something... I want to use the 'Mirror of Destiny' to predict the monster's weaknesses.
Bar?"
"... The two of them are also missing. The Mirror of Destiny gave me a vague hint. Combining some of the situations I know, I think I understand something. It is not a monster, not a ghost, not the ancient thing we are worried about.
The devil, he is..."
Maskelyne's diary ends here, with a long ink trace trailing out in the most critical place. It seems that something happened that caused him to leave the secret room in a hurry and never came back again.
The critical moment is gone! Lucien almost threw the magic notebook to the ground. Mr. Maskelyne, you will die if you write a few more words!
