Hearing that the old man who appeared in the magic circle was speaking human language, Jia Zhengjin felt relieved and immediately stepped forward: "Are you a human?"
"Human?" The old man shook his head, "I am just a consciousness restored by magic, responsible for guarding this place."
"Conscious body?" Jia Zhengjin frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
"You don't need to understand this!" The old man shook his head gently, and then looked Jia Zhengjin up and down, "The most basic ability for people who can enter this place is to move in space, and then they must have extraordinary strength! You have proven it by getting here.
Yourself. Therefore, you have the right to enter the final space and become the new manager!"
"What last space, what new manager?" Jia Zhengjin frowned, "I can't stay in this hellish place!"
"This is not a ghost place, but an underground palace created by Seamus." The old man said.
"Seamus? Underground palace?" Jia Zhengjin suddenly remembered the four legendary quality weapons he had just obtained. All of them had Seamus' name on them, so he asked curiously, "Who is Seamus?"
"Seamus is the creator of this underground palace and an immortal hero with invincible power." The old man really knew everything. Whenever Jia Zhengjin asked, he would immediately answer.
"An immortal hero with invincible power?" Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin had no doubts. A person who can mass-produce four legendary-quality weapons is indeed very powerful. "Then where is this person named Seamus now?"
"He is already dead!" the old man said with a smile.
"Holy crap!" Jia Zhengjin showed a strange expression, "One second he told me that he was an immortal hero and invincible, and now he tells me that he is dead? Are you kidding me?"
"It is precisely because of his invincibility and immortality that he has always been troubled by Seamus!" the old man replied unhurriedly, "He has lived too long. He existed when this world was born. It has gone through billions of years.
Over the long years, he witnessed the birth and changes of each ethnic group, and he finally couldn't bear it. More than 10,000 years ago, Seamus came to this underground world and personally crafted weapons that could hurt himself or even kill him. He put
These weapons were given to the four strongest humans who were captured at that time, forcing them to fight with him, and finally succeeded in dying. However, the humans who fought him could not bear the terrifying power revealed when Seamus died, and
He left this world together! Seamus never lost to anyone, he just lost his intention to live!"
"How many billions of years have you lived? And you still have to find a way to kill yourself?" Jia Zhengjin's mouth twitched, "What are you telling me about fantasy?"
But then I thought about it, wasn’t the old man talking about the bones at the door? Now they are all lying quietly in his backpack!
What about being invincible and immortal? Isn’t it just a demon? There seems to be nothing strange about demons living for a long time!
"Never mind Seamus for now!" Jia Zhengjin looked at the old man in the magic circle and said, "I want to ask you something, can you answer it?"
"It's my responsibility to help the new manager solve their problems!" the old man said with a slight smile.
"Okay, then let me ask you!" Jia Zhengjin did not forget the main purpose of his trip, "Do you know the Forgotten Ones?"
"The Forgotten One?" The old man thought for a moment, "That's me, right? No one has come for more than ten thousand years, so isn't it just forgotten?"
"I didn't mention you!" Jia Zhengjin frowned, "They are that special group of people who look like skeletons but have no immortal power."
"Oh? There is such a group?" The old man blinked, "It seems that the world is changing every moment!"
Listening to his words, it was obvious that he didn't know the Forgotten Ones. Jia Zhengjin was a little disappointed. But he still asked: "Then let me ask you again, do you know there is anything special here that can prevent people from certain ethnic groups on the surface from leaving?
?”
"Hmm~ According to what you said, it may be that they have resonated with Seamus's magic circle, so as long as they take a step away, they will be teleported back to the place immediately. This is a setting problem. Just change the frequency on the magic circle a little, and it will be there in no time.
It will be solved!”
"Resonating with the magic circle?" Jia Zhengjin didn't quite understand, "Then can you set it up here?"
"Of course not!" The old man shook his head and smiled, "You must go to Seamus's former room and gain control over it. When you become the new manager, you can set up the magic circle at will."
"A new manager again?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a frown, "If I become a new manager, will I have to stay here for the rest of my life?"
"Who said that?" the old man said with a smile, "Seamus created this underground palace. When he was the manager, he could go wherever he wanted. The only role of the manager is to receive the underground palace left by Seamus.
Palace, and then be responsible for managing the magic circle he created!"
Jia Zhengjin was a little more relieved, but he didn't dare to believe it completely because he did not rule out the possibility that the other party had deceived him: "What kind of magic circle have you been talking about? What kind of magic circle is it? What is the use of this magic circle?"
"As a manager, I need to take charge of the teleportation magic circle he created for Seamus!" the old man replied, "Of course, the magic circle is now half-destroyed. When Seamus tried to kill himself, he accidentally destroyed part of it.
.Although it is still running, it cannot be used."
"Then how can I manage it?" Jia Zhengjin frowned and said, "Everything is broken, so just leave it alone!"
"That's up to you," the old man said.
"Is it really the mission given to you by Seamus that you are so passive and slow in your work? Are you worthy of him?"
"It's just my personal interest to find a new manager!" the old man said with a smile, "This has nothing to do with Seamus. I was created by Seamus, and he gave me human emotions. It's just that this bastard is very selfish.
, when he was alive, he asked me to chat with him to relieve his boredom, and then he sought his own death and left me alone here for tens of thousands of years. This made me worry about running out of energy and fearing that no one would talk to me, so I could only use simple magic to control those few little ones.
Guy, let me fall into a deep sleep until a new creature breaks into this area. No matter what ethnic group you come from or what your identity is, I will make you the manager here!"
"Oh~ The feeling is that I am so idle that I want to find someone to talk to, and then help you add energy to prevent it from disappearing, right?" Jia Zhengjin understood.
"I am a magical creature created by Seamus," the old man said calmly, "I must activate the magic circle to awaken, and then survive through the energy of these magic stones. You become the manager here, just help me add magic stones regularly, and then
Just talk to me."
"Come on!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head and said, "Then we have to stay here? I have to return to the ground. I have very important things to do!"
"If you want to leave here, you can take me with you!" the old man said. "Did you see the magic circle at my feet? You can use any method to burn this magic circle on any prop. But make sure you have enough
If the magic stone is inlaid with holes, I can follow you anywhere!"
"You are not a beauty, why should I take you?" Jia Zhengjin rolled his eyes.
"I'm just a conscious body, with no form restrictions!" The old man smiled, "You can transform me into anything you want, as long as you input instructions. Moreover, after Seamus created me, he taught me a lot of knowledge. Although I still have
It’s not one ten thousandth as good as him, but it’s still very valuable knowledge for you short-lived humans! Take me with you, don’t leave me in this hellish place anymore.”
