After translating the Latin text on the clay tablet, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi were silent for a while, thinking about the meaning of this text.
"What does this mean?" Li Shuyi was confused.
"Don't think too much," Bai Xiaowen said, "for this kind of puzzle-solving text, it's not enough to have the riddle. You have to understand the scope of the riddle, that is, the background, in order to make corresponding inferences."
It's like guessing a riddle. After the person who asks the question tells the riddle, he will often follow it with a sentence such as "hit an object" or "hit a word". This is the scope of the answer.
Most puzzles will be set up this way unless the puzzle is too obvious or the scope of the puzzle is already defined.
Bai Xiaowen paused for a moment and then said: "From the thirty-six-character puzzle and the off-site information we have obtained so far, we can only discern two points."
"First, there is a high probability that this is a doomsday prophecy."
"Secondly, the god in the sentence should be an evil god who prefers the dark camp. He is probably the object of worship of the quagmire snake people tribe. A normal god should not 'come from the abyss'."
Finally, Bai Xiaowen added: "There are only three sentences that I can't figure out now. 'The mountains turned into reflections, and fish gnawed at vultures' and 'Shadows covered the sky.' These three sentences are relatively elusive.
It smells... of being mysterious. There is no need to think about it so much."
Li Shuyi said with some worry: "Prophecies about the end of the world? Is it the end of the earth? The destruction of the earth?"
"Do you believe in the doomsday?" Bai Xiaowen asked back.
"Psychic particles have appeared, and the modern scientific system that humans have believed in for hundreds of years has almost collapsed. There are still many unsolved mysteries about psychic particles that can only be replaced by hypotheses... I feel that even if the end of the world occurs,
It’s not surprising.”
Bai Xiaowen overlooked one point. Li Shuyi grew up in the age of psychic energy, and people who grew up in this era must have a much higher degree of acceptance and belief in the end of the world than humans in the AD era.
You must know that even in the AD era, almost no supernatural forces appeared in the public eye. There were still sects that preached the end of the world and attracted believers. Of course, they were all cults, but the emergence of cults meant that they had a considerable "mass base."
Bai Xiaowen: "Don't worry, even if there is an end of the world, the earth will be fine. The earth has existed for 4.6 billion years... How long is the history of human beings, and how long is the era of psychic energy?"
Seeing that Li Shuyi's expression was still solemn, Bai Xiaowen breathed out. He still underestimated the impact of doomsday prophecies on Li Shuyi's generation. This is also the reason why governments of various countries severely crack down on various sects that preach the end of the world. In terms of punishment settings, it is necessary to
Much heavier than in the AD era.
Even so, cults and sects are still popping up like mushrooms after a rain, and they cannot be banned at all.
"Okay, I guess this prophecy does not refer to the earth world," Bai Xiaowen hugged Li Shuyi's slim waist, "Have you forgotten how the treasure space of the Lake of the Dead was formed? All treasure spaces are from the spirit world.
The peeling fragments in the face... In other words, this prophecy comes from a certain spiritual plane, and of course it refers to the end of that spiritual plane, and it has nothing to do with the earth."
Li Shuyi smiled sheepishly and finally felt relieved.
The two of them hit the road again and continued their exploration in the pale mire.
A few more hours passed.
Bai Xiaowen had previously killed the Nightmare, and the Skeleton Blade Shieldman, Shadow Assassin and Stitch Monster Fatty who had died in the battle could finally be resurrected and summoned again. Bai Xiaowen's summoned creature army had finally reached its peak.
"It's almost done. I summoned Fat Boy. I killed the level 6 boss Voodoo Giant Corpse before and a special item appeared. Let me see if Fat Boy can use it." Bai Xiaowen said after another wave of battles.
Bai Xiaowen raised his hand to summon the Stitch Monster, and took out the "Voodoo Core" from the storage space.
The description of the voodoo core states that it is very attractive to zombie creatures, so of course Bai Xiaowen wanted to give it a try.
Fatty saw the voodoo core and instinctively stretched out his chubby and dirty hands.
Bai Xiaowen handed the voodoo core to Fatty's hand. Fatty opened his big mouth and swallowed the voodoo core in one gulp. Then he lay down without saying a word: "zzz..."
"..."
Bai Xiaowen was a little dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, after Fatty swallowed the core, his first reaction was to sleep. He tried to put Fatty into the Black Soul Stone, but he got a prompt:
"Your summoned creature: Stitch Monster is in a state of evolutionary dormancy, and the estimated remaining time is 3 hours, 59 minutes and 11 seconds."
"If the Stitch Monster is withdrawn early, the dormant state will be terminated and this evolution will fail."
"Do you want to take it back?"
Of course, Bai Xiaowen couldn't choose to take it back. Fatty's evolution definitely meant an increase in strength, and he couldn't wish for it.
Li Shuyi also saw the reminder message shared by Bai Xiaowen and said: "Let's wait here, the four hours will be over soon."
Bai Xiaowen: "No need to wait, let's keep walking."
"But Fatty is still sleeping." Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen chuckled, and with a move of his hand, the four skeleton sword and shield hands stepped forward and put away the iron sword and shield. The eight bone claws placed the fat boy's shoulders and buttocks, and gently and deftly lifted more than two hundred people.
The fat guy weighing 1kg was lifted up.
The weight of more than two hundred kilograms seems scary, but for the four skeleton sword and shield hands with a strength value of 19 points, it is no problem at all. Even four ordinary strong men can lift more than two hundred kilograms.
You can do these things with gritted teeth, not to mention that the strength of the Skeleton Blade and Shield Hand is far beyond that of ordinary people, and of course it is even easier. Even in the mire, you can still walk as fast as flying.
"That's enough. It won't disturb Fatty's evolution, and it won't delay our journey." Bai Xiaowen smiled proudly, who asked us to summon enough creatures!
Even if you encounter an enemy, the combination of the remaining two Skeleton Sword and Shield Hands + Angry Claw + Shadow Assassin + Bone Demon Master + Vampire Kitts + Skeleton Warrior + Ghost is enough to deal with it. In a word, summon more creatures, be willful!
Li Shuyi smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed: "Okay, let's go..."
A strange formation appeared, with Kitts at the front, followed by Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi. In the center were four skeletons carrying a big fat man, as well as fragile professions such as ghosts and dead bone magicians, and behind them were angry figures.
After the claws were cut off from the skeleton warrior, he looked quite happy.
After walking for a while, Bai Xiaowen's expression suddenly changed and he looked towards the thick fog ahead on the left.
Kitts put his ear to the ground and raised his head after a while: "Boss, there seem to be quite a few people over there. The noise sounds like they are fighting."
