A dizzy twist...
After a little dazed, Brian opened his eyes and looked up and saw a city that had long been ruined appeared in front of him.
The once magnificent stone building's wind-corroded surface stretches out of the sand like rotten teeth. The remains of the ancient streets poke out from the sultry yellow sand, winding through the collapsed walls and the broken walls after the building falls.
The cold wind roared throughout the desert, and the howling of the strong wind quickly turned into a sorrowful cry, as if it came from a tortured soul.
In front of them, Brian saw and heard a sandstorm, which was spinning in place like a huge dome in the center of the city's ruins.
"here it is……"
The golem stretched out his arm and pointed at the desert in confusion, as if confused about what to do later.
"Put it away for now." Brian glanced at the golem and explained to Heliste beside him.
After all, this golem is the key to their opening of the treasure house of stars. If it is destroyed due to poor protection in the middle, it will be very depressing.
However, to his surprise, his words did not receive a response from Herist. Only the golem turned around and looked at himself in confusion, as if saying: Why do you want to put me away?
Brian subconsciously glanced at Herist and found her standing in the wind, looking into the distance, her dress and cloak danced, and her long shiny silver-white hair fluttered in the wind.
Under the cold moonlight, her skin is like snow, and her eyes are like a pool of clear water. As she looks at her, she has a elegant and elegant temperament, which makes people feel ashamed of it and dare not desecrate it.
"What's wrong with you?" He whispered to remind her in her mind through the spiritual links established by the two.
"It's okay..." Herrist came to his senses and looked at him apologetically, "What did you say just now?"
"Put this golem away, we're going to get in." Brian repeated the words just now.
Herist nodded slightly, raised his slender jade hand, waved his sleeves, and the golem full of question marks disappeared.
"Are you still thinking about what happened just now?" Brian asked when he saw the golem disappear.
When they were preparing to explore the floating city of Azuma with the golem, he did not let the old dragon turtle follow him, but asked him to return to Mokou Town in advance with his letter.
Before leaving, the old dragon turtle suddenly took out a turtle shell and wanted to tell them about the future.
The old dragon turtle said proudly that this ancestral turtle shell was left by an ancestor who had lived for tens of thousands of years. Every ten years, he could divine anything without consuming any cost.
He claimed that in order to understand the divination method of tortoise shells, he even went to the Karatu continent in the east to learn from alchemists or monks for hundreds of years.
Faced with this situation, Brian naturally left this valuable opportunity to Herist.
And the psychic warlock was not beyond his expectations and chose to divine the future for the small world they left.
Facing his problem, Heliste nodded gently and responded to his problem with silence.
"Did you figure it out?" Brian lifted his hood and sorted out his slightly messy hair.
"I understand... I don't understand." Heliste lightly opened his tight jade lips and said truthfully.
"This is understandable. After all, the old dragon turtle's divination method was passed down from the ancient Eastern Kingdoms." He thought for a moment and said to her:
"You should know that the divination culture in ancient Eastern countries has a long history. In their interactions with the natural world, some alchemists or natural practitioners made judgments on astronomical phenomena, climate, hunting, nomads, followers, right and wrong, etc., and used various forms to seek help from the will of the gods in the dark.
However, natural signs are not common and must be tested in an artificial way. Over time, the use of divination tools as an intermediary is created to communicate consciously between man and gods, and to predict future good and bad fortune through some signs. Therefore, divination emerged. The most important thing is that this country is that it can only be understood but not expressed in words. Therefore, divination information is difficult to understand in most cases."
"And the old dragon turtle's divination shows that the sky can be replenished, the sea can be filled, the south mountain can be moved, the sun and the moon have passed, and the meaning cannot be pursued again..."
Seeing Herist cast an interesting look at him, he continued, "It means that you can make up for the sky, fill the sea, and move mountains, but the past time will never be recovered, so you must cherish the present."
"Don't you understand?" He looked at Herist's thoughtful face and made the final question.
In fact, he could feel that Herist had already understood the meaning of it. The reason for this was mainly to know his opinion on this sentence.
"I understand." Herist met his gaze and nodded slightly.
"Just understand." Brian turned around and looked at the ruins in the distance and the raging sandstorm.
"Bryan, I suddenly felt..."
Looking at his back, Heliste hesitated and walked to him, saying in a gentle tone, "How to merge the fifth spiritual crystal servant, and I also found some clues to merge the sixth one."
When she said this, a touch of bright red quietly floated over her beautiful face, which was very eye-catching under the cold moonlight.
Brian, who had turned around, naturally did not notice Heliste's changes. After hearing her words, he was stunned. He instantly understood the meaning of her words, and smiled and expressed his guess, "The sixth personality fragment is related to the small world."
In his impression, Herist did not merge the personal fragments of the remaining two spiritual crystal servants until he was reborn.
He was still very happy when he thought that she could achieve this spiritual secret technique in the future.
"Yes." Herist, who had recovered from calmness, looked at Brian's beautiful eyes and nodded slightly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "Then I'm relieved." Brian's expression relaxed and his eyes stared at the sandstorm in the ruins, "Have you noticed that the sandstorm here looks very strange."
He saw a dome-shaped sandstorm, about 400 feet wide, spinning around the ruins.
Purple lightning flashed in the storm, the howling sound was deafening, and the washed bones were scattered on the ground below, and the stones nearby ruins were also ruined in the face of the ever-ending storm.
"Note." Herister observed the surroundings and said thoughtfully, "The dust storm here seems to be deliberately wrapping up the ruins of the floating city."
"That's true." Brian nodded, "If I expected it would be a sandstorm area that no one dared to step into deep in the String Plain."
"Herist, I suspect there is a wind giant who is secretly controlling everything." He looked at the psychic warlock beside him, "If we don't drive it away, it will be difficult for us to enter this ruin. Is there any way you can detect them."
The giant spirit was born from the fusion of the soul of the intelligent life with the original matter of the elemental plane.
Only in rare cases will this soul injected into an element condense into a manifestation form and become a giant spirit.
However, they usually have no connection with the soul that constitutes their own.
Because the vitality from this is only to construct its own components, to form the shape and gender appearance of the giant spirit, and to occasionally inherit one or two prominent personal characteristics.
Although the giant spirit has the form of a humanoid creature, it actually has the elemental spirit of physical form.
They will not become mates with other giant spirits, nor will they reproduce the descendants of giant spirits, so all new giant spirits come from the fusion of essence energy and elemental power.
Although some giants who are more influenced by their own mortal souls may choose to reproduce with mortals, it is still very rare for such children to be born.
"If there is really a wind giant nearby..." Heliste's quiet beautiful eyes flashed, as if he remembered something, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I can try to summon it."
"Then try it." Brian looked at her in surprise, not expecting that she still has this ability.
He thought about it carefully and immediately understood the reason.
After all, Feng Juling is famous for his naughty humor and kindness to mortals.
Between the different giants, the wind giant also felt that the fire giant and the water giant were arrogant and cold to them, and even openly despised the earth giants, and would start fighting if there was a disagreement.
The most important thing is that Feng Juling believes that the master-servant relationship is the arrangement of fate, and no one can escape the hand of fate.
Therefore, among all giants, the Wind Giant is the most vulnerable to enslavement, although they do not enjoy this treatment.
The Wind Giant sees his slaves as servants worthy of kindness and protection, and will not even want to separate from them.
Of course, mortals who want to receive short-term service from Feng Juling can also plead with exquisite gifts or bribe and flatter the other party by tribute.
However, some powerful mages will not get used to their problems.
They would not use red tape to coax them, but instead summoned the wind giant and tied them up to serve themselves, and even imprisoned them with magic and did something indescribable.
If Brian opens the seventh-level magic net, he can also use some summoning medium to cast the "Seventh-level Monster Summoning Technique" to summon the Wind Giant from the elemental plane.
If the Wind Giant Spirit is in the material plane, it will be much easier to summon it.
He saw Herist take out an incense flashing with magical aura and ignite it.
As the smoke of the owl rose, a faint fragrance began to radiate from the air.
It can't tell what it smells, but it makes people feel clear in their minds, a bit like the auxiliary spices used by wizards when preparing to remember spells.
Heliste let the ignited incense hang in the air and whispered a summoning spell.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, a brilliant summoning array appeared under the eyes of the two of them, and the light became more and more intense as the incense burned rapidly.
The moment the incense burned out, the powerful aura of creatures in another world spread around.
"The Incarnation of the Wind, obey your call..."
As a distant sound came out, the summoning array disappeared, and a giant wind vortex of 20 feet in size appeared.
The wind whirls twisted and rotated in the sand and dust. Gradually, a blurred face appeared inside, unable to see clearly.
Its eyes condensed from green wind silk, sometimes calm, sometimes irritable and angry.
It turned out to be the Lord of Wind Giant Spirit in the legendary realm.
Feeling the energy of the wind element blowing his clothes and hair, a hint of shock appeared on Brian's face.
At the same time, he began to wonder whether this Lord of Wind Giant Spirit was the helper of the Blue Dragon Lich who occupied the ruins of Azuma.
Just as he was in deep thought, the wind whirlpool floating in the air instantly turned into a noble woman with green skin, long green hair and tall figure.
She floated in the air and looked at the two of them with her proud and sharp black eyes.
"Wind Giant Spirit, you blocked our way."
Heliste raised his chin lightly, looked at Lord Fengjiling with a cold look, and said lightly, "You have received my tribute, you should know how to do it."
"You were brought over by the sapphire whistle, and I have no reason to stop you from entering Azuma City." The woman made of green wind silk, her graceful figure burst out with a soft light, and her voice was cold and erratic.
"However, this city has been occupied by a blue dragon lich. I cannot step into the city due to the restrictions of the ancient covenant signed with the great arcane Opus."
Brian was stunned and immediately sent a word to Herist through his heart quickly.
"What is your mission?" Herist paused and asked again.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! "In order to get rid of the curse of the Naserel Empire, the great arcane Opus entered an eternal sleep. His sarcophagus was stored in the treasure house of all stars." Lord Feng Giant Spirit said:
"My mission is to guide those who are destined to enter this city, open the treasure house of stars, and awaken the great archangelist who is trapped in eternal sleep."
"It seems you have disappointed the sleeping arcane." Herrist calmly commented.
"It's true. 300 years ago, I was deceived by a blue dragon lich to enter the city." Lord Feng Juling said with a shame:
"However, the thief's conspiracy was discovered by the Sapphire Sweater. I am grateful for your ability to find the missing Sapphire Sweater and escort it here."
After saying that, her shiny and graceful figure bowed deeply to the two of them.
"You are not saying that it is impossible to step into Azuma City due to the limitations of the ancient covenant." Brian found the loophole in his words, "What form do you use to help us open the treasure house of stars and awaken the sleeping arcane master."
"You are right. Due to the restrictions of the ancient covenant, I really cannot step into the city of Azuma."
Lord Wind Giant looked at him carefully, "The only thing I can help you is to hand over a magic scroll that the Great Arcane gave me before he fell asleep to your hands."
When he heard that it was a prayer scroll, Brian immediately understood that this scroll should be the way to awaken the great arcane.
However, in his impression, the sleeping arcane master did not seem to have been resurrected.
After careful consideration, he sent a few words to Herist beside him through his soul.
"It's obvious." Herist said to Lord Wind Giant according to his instructions, "If we awaken the sleeping great arcane, your mission will be completed, right?"
"That's exactly that." Lord Feng Juling admitted frankly.
"We are here for the treasure house of stars." Heliste whispered, "not to help you restore your freedom. Besides, why should we help you awaken the master here?"
"..." Lord Feng Juling was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to refute it.
"Since that's the case, I will follow the ancient covenant and will never let you step into Azuma City." Lord Wind Giant Spirit's words suddenly became cold, and the howling whirlwind quickly circled around her graceful figure.
"You are not my opponent."
Herist said in a cold voice, "We can help you restore your freedom, but the premise of all this is that you need to serve us. Otherwise, I will be able to kill you if I raise my hand."
As soon as she finished speaking, her momentum suddenly changed. The suddenly opened spiritual aura made Lord Feng Giant Spirit retreat repeatedly. The whirlwind that swirled and flew away instantly, revealing a large area of ​​delicate green skin.
"We will not sign a bonded ancient covenant with you like the great arcane, or seal you in a bottle."
In this tense atmosphere, Brian appeared in time and said to Lord Wind Giant Spirit:
"You can return to your own wind element plane, but when we need to summon you, you must come to the material world as quickly as possible and obey us. That's all, isn't that too difficult for you, right?"
Lord Wind Giant glanced at Brian suspiciously.
When she looked at Herrist's cold gaze and the powerful force field emitted from her body, she knew she was unable to defeat her and chose to surrender, "I promised you the conditions."
At the same time, the sandstorm that filled the entire ruins gradually subsided.
"A wise choice." Brian smiled slightly and signaled Herist to relax.
Being able to summon a Wind Giant Lord in the legendary field at any time will be of great help to the early stage.
Of course, the premise of all this is to open the treasure house of stars of the Great Arcane.
After taking the scroll of Lord Wind Giant Spirit's prayer, he and Herist continued to walk deep into the ruins.
When they found the gate to the depths of the ruins, they immediately found two sandstone-carved sphinxes crouching on the granite base, blocking their way.
The most important thing is that around these two Sphinxes, the pale humanoid skeletons are half buried in the sand around the base.
Sphinx, also known as Sphinx.
In the sacred compartments, they guard the secrets and treasures of the gods, and look at each team that comes before them with peace.
Adventurers who come to Sphinx, whether in order to seek the treasure of gods, or in order to obtain forgotten secrets such as powerful spells, artifacts, or magic doors, must undergo the test of the Guardian to determine their qualifications.
The creatures who choose to face the test of Sphinx are destined to face death, and only those who are qualified can survive, while the rest are destroyed by them.
"It seems that there are still things hidden in this treasure house of stars that the gods think are worthy of protection, and they even sent two sphinxes to protect them. No wonder the blue dragon lich who broke into this place has not succeeded yet." Looking at the two sphinxes of a man and a woman, Brian signaled Herist not to continue moving forward.
It is said that Sphinx is a high-level priest created by the gods. Wherever Sphinx appears, the secrets and treasures they guard are under the protection of divine power.
So, when adventurers fail in the Sphinx test, the path to the object or secret may disappear, or in some form make it unavailable.
Even if Sphinx is attacked and defeated, the adventurer cannot learn the secrets he is seeking, and has not even been regarded as an enemy by the deity who has appointed Sphinx as the Guardian.
Brian couldn't help but secretly regret why he hadn't paid much attention to what was happening here at the beginning, so he didn't even know which deity sent these two Sphinxes.
In this case, he had to bite the bullet and walk up and choose to take the Sphinx test.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Moreover, with Herist's thigh, he is not worried that these two Sphinxes can kill himself if the test fails.
Brian signaled Herist to go to the male face of Sphinx.
Because in his impression, male sphinx represents courage and courage, and their tests are usually a battle or a challenge.
Seeing Herrist disappearing from Sphinx's repeated roars and roars, he knew that this powerful psychic warlock was likely to have accepted a challenge.
He was not worried at all about this.
And he came to Sphinx, who had a female face.
Because they represent knowledge and knowledge, they usually ask riddles to those who seek secrets, or show puzzles to test the other person's wisdom.
The moment when Brian approached the Sphinx range with a female face, a crisp voice rang deep in his heart:
I'm splitting like a snake
I ignited the thunderous explosion
As soon as I appeared, the storm followed me like a shadow
Break the darkness and respond to my passion
What am I?
…………
"lightning!"
Hearing the puzzle the other party said, he relaxed and answered her riddle confidently.
Then, the female Sphinx was silent for a moment, and as expected, another familiar crisp voice came from his mind:
She is round, now flat as a board
The altar of the ferocious wolf lords
Jewelry on black velvet, pearls in the sea
Change is unchanged and regenerates, never stops
What is she?
…………
"moon!"
Brian pondered for a moment and answered the second question. Next, he only needed to answer one more question and completed the test of Sphinx.
No need to summon
No need to drive
We're showing up at night
Dissipate during the day
What are we?
…………
"Stars!" Brian easily answered the third question.
At the same time, Herist's figure also appeared out of thin air, walking to him with light steps.
Apparently, she also passed the test of Sphinx.
The two of them no longer hesitated and walked towards the depths of the ruins from the two Sphinxes.
Chapter completed!
