Walking all the way along the southern tunnel to the end, Fujianak unscrewed an iron door. As soon as the path through the catacombs was opened, a large group of ghouls attacked. These ancient warriors of the Dragon Worship Cult still loyally guard their masters.
Then, as expected, it was shattered by Fujuenac's instant dragon roar in the clear sky. As for the fallen loot, the lord didn't even bother to pick it up. The cursed remnant souls of the ancient ghouls were devoured by the Ash Fire Demon Gaia Arturia. Just like the trinity of Talos "divided into two divine laws". In fact, most of the souls of these ancient warriors have returned, and the cursed remnant souls left in the withered corpses are more like "remnants", or "obsession."
Follow the stairs further east into a magical puzzle room with three small carved stone pillars surrounding a large central carved stone pillar with different runes. Talstan couldn't wait to step forward and began to read the inscription on the carved stone: "Well... three pillars. Apart from the carved stone, there seems to be nothing else of note. Let's see what the inscription is: 'All people must Die, in their own way'. If you ask me, my lord, that sounds scary. You see the carved stone pillars also have some sort of glowing stone on top, which makes them look somewhat similar to one of the ones I've seen. The magic stone pattern called the 'Shock Stone'."
"Impact Magic Stone." Wu Chen understood: "It can only be activated by attacking with magic."
"Indeed, my lord." Talstan thought so too.
Solving this magic puzzle is actually quite simple. Just let the three of Fujuenak attack the three carved stone pillars in sequence. The attack methods are related to the weapons placed on the base near the central pillar: melee, bow and arrow, and magic. When all three pillars are activated, the northern secret door slowly opens with a rumble, leading to the final southern tomb.
"Master, be careful." Firelight burst out, and Fujuenac grabbed the sneak attack's hidden arrow. The three ghoul overlords climbed up from the sarcophagus in no particular order, roaring and charging towards the crowd.
Fujuenac picked up an ancient Nordic sword with his toes and dropped the sword with his hand, slashing him to the ground in a matter of minutes.
"Master, there is a wall of dragon language." Fujuenak saw the ancient magic wall that condensed the "Sound of Storm" at a glance.
"Here lies a guardian who has won many honors. Because of his eternal loyalty, he rests gloriously with the dead." Wu Chen automatically learned the first dragon roar of Battle Fury as soon as he approached the dragon language wall. : Loyalty (Mi). It is rare that the lord has not learned the dragon language Tumu. And the memory copies that have never poured in out of thin air can also prove that this is a new adventure that he has never experienced before.
This shows what?
This shows that the plot of "Dragon Break in the Second Thousand Years" is accelerating to wrap up, and its impact on the main plot is quickly fading. Otherwise, Wu Chen would not be able to experience new adventures.
When the lord learned the sound of the storm on the dragon language wall, Fortunak also found the left half of the amethyst dragon claw that opened the central tomb.
"Sir, I have found the exit." Talstan also completed the study of the inscriptions in the secret room: "Although the runes have faded, fortunately they can still be translated. I am convinced that what is described above is the defeat of the traitor Milak by the guardian Varok. That ancient history.”
After speaking, Talstan opened a sarcophagus and the secret door opened: "My lord, go this way."
"Okay." Wu Chen, who had learned a new dragon roar, smiled in a good mood.
Everyone returned to the previous outer tomb chamber along the narrow sarcophagus tunnel. Then follow the northern tunnel all the way to the end. Talstan was also very experienced in finding the riddle hidden in the tomb on the north side: "I think this is another riddle: 'Continue walking along the path, don't step on your past...' Sir, this is very Interesting." He pointed to the strange stone path in the center of the tomb and said, "Well, I'm sure of two things. First, this riddle probably refers to these flat square stones. Second, I won't step on them easily. Rocks anywhere near the foothold.”
"Leave the rest to us." Wu Chen could completely understand the caution of a famous scholar.
The puzzle here is also very simple for Wu Chen: just jump from one square stone to the next without touching any square stone adjacent to the two. When all the stones in the nine squares are stepped down, the way to the last north tomb opens as scheduled.
A large group of ghoul overlords are waiting for the adventuring party. The Lord's strength also satisfied these loyal tomb guards. Holding swords with ancient enchantments, they rushed forward in a swarm, and were undoubtedly wiped out in minutes. So, after becoming a lord, the daily adventure life actually becomes boring. It is said that once upon a time, Wu Chen, who had just entered Tianji, and his loyal followers traveled back and forth across the mountains and rivers of Tianji. Those memories of adventure always emerge from time to time inadvertently. Really missed.
Just after the battle, the always rigorous and life-saving old scholar rushed over and began his best exploration and puzzle solving: "Look, sir! There is also a magic wall here, and there is also dragon language on it!"
"This stone is to commemorate the bravery of the guardians, the noble servants of the dragon. Their destiny is to defeat the treacherous Milak." Wu Chen also saw it. He walked straight forward and learned the second dragon roar of Battle Fury: Vur.
And the right half of the amethyst dragon claw.
Pull the chain mechanism that is easy to find, and with the rumble of the stone wall falling, a shortcut to quickly return to the outer tomb opens. Are you saying it’s not a thoughtful little design to help players avoid unnecessary mistakes? Think about it, if you don't want players to find the two halves of the amethyst dragon claw and return as soon as possible, why do you spend so much effort to dig two shortcuts?
After collecting the left and right halves of the amethyst dragon claw, it is time to unlock the main tomb passage blocked by the "magic cage" in the outer tomb.
Insert the corresponding claws into the keyholes on either side of the stairs leading to the magic cage. The cage door then opened, and Talstan jumped into the cage and translated the inscription with increasing proficiency: "This is another riddle: 'Stick to your course, stay is to wait for death'. Well, at least it is more straightforward than the first two. This seems to be some kind of switch. I will stand in the cage and ask you to turn on the dragon claw switch in the other cage. I believe everything will be fine, sir."
"Okay, Mr. Talstein." Wu Chen also saw the key.
Open the magic cage door to the west of the fire row, and the mechanism in the cage will immediately open a glowing blue magic bridge. A magic plank road seems to appear out of thin air, extending along the west wall of the tomb into the depths of the tomb.
Passing through the corridor, the adventure team faced the next challenge: a huge tomb flooded by water. There is also a corrupted shadow that is simply cannon fodder lurking in the tomb. Although the battle was lackluster, Wu Chen was looking forward to the final central tomb. Obviously, this guardian's ancient tomb has not been visited in advance. But another question followed: Since King Olaf the One-Eyed was abandoned here, it means that the wise giant Mimir must have visited here, but gave up exploring the ancient tomb for some reason. Perhaps, he already knew in advance that there was nothing he wanted in the tomb - the Dragon Priest Mask of Guardian Varok.
Thinking of this, the expectations that had just risen were immediately shattered.
"Master?" Fu Jianak also noticed: "Maybe there is an accident."
"Yeah, I thought about it too." Wu Chen nodded lightly: "Even if you don't find the dragon priest mask, you might still be surprised if you meet the ancient guardian Varok."
"Master, I don't understand something." Fu Jianak had a bigger question in his mind.
"The paradox of cause and effect." Wu Chen knew her question.
"Yes, that's it." Fujuenak said softly: "Just like the master who is a dragonborn cannot reverse the law of cause and effect of the dragonborn. Because this is a "paradox of cause and effect." All generations of dragonborn possess dragon souls and have the same inheritance. The blood of the dragon. It may even be the 'same dragon scale' that has been reincarnated over and over again. This means that if the wise giant Mimir really became the first-generation dragonborn Milak, the master's dragon-breaking law has become ineffective against him. The "Dragon Breaking Ring" forged by the master is the "inevitable result" of ending the "Dragon Breaking of the Second Thousand Years", so inferring that the "Dragon Breaking Ring" will also end the first generation of dragonborn Milak or Mimir. If this 'law of inverse causality' is true, the first dragonborn Mimir or Milak should not have appeared. However, they did. Isn't this the biggest paradox?"
"There are two possibilities." Wu Chen once thought: "In the first case, we are still in the inverse of the law of cause and effect, and in the second case, we are in a cause and effect cycle."
"The first one is a line, and the second one is a circle." Fojunac understood.
"You can say that." As usual, Wu Chen did not refute. In fact, there is a more terrifying situation: the Möbius strip. There is no way out of the "one-sided cycle". This also means that the "cause" and "effect" of retrograde will never intersect. Always full of uncertainty. Not sure how to reverse the determination?
This is like an "infinite loop". The result is that Wu Chen is forever immersed in this infinite loop of the "Dragon Breaking in the Second Millennium Plot", with no end and no escape.
Hope this isn't the worst case scenario.
Go down the steps through the magical path built into the wall like a ledge, then head west into the first stone corridor. At the west end of this corridor is a pedestal with a handle. The handle on the pedestal opens another magical bridge across the room to a second stone corridor, as well as a third lucky handle and a third stone corridor.
The last stone bridge leads to a giant iron gate. Behind it is the main burial chamber of the Guardian Dragon Priest.
After crossing the bridge, Talstan was as excited as ever: "Look, a temple of history! I must say this is found in many ancient Nord tombs, so there must be hundreds of years of history inscribed on it. Well... it looks like What key does it need. Maybe the etched stone carvings on the wall have enough intact text to tell us the right combination. Ah, yes, there's something here. The first has to do with the breeze. The second mentions the night sky, and the moon. And the third one has something to do with fire. There seems to be a reference to scales as well.”
"These are enough." The lord, who has experienced too many ancient tomb explorations and has enough memory copies, almost instantly knew the totem combination on the circular magic door: eagle, wolf, and dragon.
Then insert the amethyst dragon claw into the keyhole.
The mechanism then opens. The door of the tomb slowly fell, revealing a long staircase leading to the final tomb.
"Let's go and meet the legendary Dragon Priest." Wu Chen had many questions in his mind, including the worst Mobius one-sided cycle.
