The group of people who had just escaped looked at each other, feeling like they were surviving a disaster.
Lin held the stone box in disgrace, but he did not hand it over to others rashly. I'm afraid that there are alien space bacteria on it, something like the curse of the Pharaoh of the Earth.
A simple boundary was drawn in the open space outside the tower, and the stone box was first placed in it, and two girls and two dogs were asked to guard it. He himself entered the tower and personally ensured the safety of every corner. At the same time, he went to the core room to confirm that the control of the tower was still firmly in his hands, and then he welcomed the girl guarding outside the tower.
As for the dogs that disappeared without a trace after the ban was lifted, they were probably a little frightened.
After being tortured like this, the three masters and disciples couldn't sleep. Lin put the stone box into the ritual room on the third floor, where there was the most powerful and strongest barrier in the entire tower. Then he and the two girls split up to confirm the safety of the Great Sage's Tower again. It feels like the tower has not been turned over, and people will not feel at ease if they see through it.
While rechecking the safety of the Magic Tower, let’s take stock of the losses. I didn't do any inventory, and I haven't discovered the earthquake phenomenon caused by the astronomical wonders. The damage caused by it is almost non-existent. In addition to the damage to the star chart wall in the restaurant, the small stove used for barbecue on the observatory was kicked over, and the meat slices on it fell to the ground before being cooked.
It doesn't matter, there are two dogs here, their stomachs are better, and if you can't eat them to death, you don't have to worry about the six-second rule.
In addition, even the bottles and cans on the shelves did not fall or break due to the earthquake. Everything was as if nothing had happened. What did the Tower of the Great Sage look like before the series of changes caused by the Six Stars Link, and what does the Tower of the Great Sage still look like after the changes.
In other words, this exciting life-and-death escape was actually mostly about scaring myself.
However, Lin learned from the girls' mouths about the vision that happened outside the tower, and his own experience of being almost swallowed by the broken space when he took out the stone box in the restaurant. These were not dreams, but real things. It actually happened. It's a really bad feeling to have your life threatened and possibly be told 'it's not a big deal'.
As for the broken star map wall in the restaurant, Lin had previously recorded and copied the magic patterns and magic circles, plus the effects he saw this time. After spending some time researching, you should be able to figure out the reason. I had no clue before. That was because I didn’t even understand the effect of the magic circle, so I naturally didn’t know what direction to research in.
Now that we see that wall showing several effects, including storage, repairing space cracks, and autonomous energy supply, it is tantamount to leaving a trace for people to trace. With the research direction in hand, Lin You is confident that he will be able to analyze its principles.
But it also reminded him of the inexplicable familiarity he felt when he looked at the star chart wall magic array before. It is a similar magic pattern used in the 'any door' of three-ring apprentice magic, which means that it is a magic formula related to space.
Lin was very interested in the magic of storage space. After all, he believed from the bottom of his heart that he had come to the mysterious side of the world, and he didn't have a few space rings to wear on his hands, which seemed to be very dull. In order to maintain the self-esteem of time travellers, it is necessary to have one space ring on one finger, ten on ten fingers, and if not enough, there are also toes.
But before that, there was another very important thing to do, which was to confirm what was in the stone box fished out from the secret storage space. Only then did the first owner of the Tower of the Great Sage, Dharma Saint Atoli thousands of years ago, collect it in such a special way.
Of course, teachers are not the only ones who are curious. The two young apprentices followed their teacher into the ceremony room on the third floor.
Although someone insists that this is the strongest and safest place in the entire tower. However, most of the facilities and magic circles here were already dilapidated, old, and unusable when they first moved into the Magic Tower. So those parts had already been dismantled or erased at that time. Later, because it had no use, I never thought of repairing it. To this day, regardless of whether it can be used or not, maybe the magic circle originally painted outside the tower is stronger than this one.
The two girls complained secretly in their hearts. But soon, the attention returned to the stone box.
Not big, not small, not heavy, not light. Although the top cover has no fasteners, it is tightly integrated with the box. The exterior is smooth with no unnecessary nicks or decorations, giving it an unpretentious look. But after I put it on, I felt very cold, as if it would suck the strength out of my hand. The material with the same properties is the most basic building material for the construction of the Tower of the Great Sage - striped blue scroll stone.
However, from the appearance, there are no swirling patterns that are characteristic of striped blue paisley stone, and there are no alternating blue and white colors. Are the features hidden by some kind of magic? Or is this just another type of material with similar properties.
After thinking about it, Lin placed the stone box in the center of the protective magic circle. After re-casting a barrier, he cast a 'spiritual light detection' magic on the stone box. This is used to reveal hidden magic circles or magic patterns, but there is a certain risk of triggering the accompanying magic trap.
No trap was triggered, but the magic patterns displayed on the stone box were as dense and delicate as a work of art. But it turned out to be a dead gray-white color, which meant that the stone box had lost all its magical power.
In the case of the magic stone, as long as it still contains power, it will slowly recover over time. But once it is drained, the stone is just a stone, and it is no longer possible to infuse magic power into the useless magic stone, let alone natural recovery. Although the drained magic stone has other uses, its value is far different from its original value.
Magic arrays and magic patterns are in a similar situation. Its own production materials will contain power. Although it will be slightly overflowed over time, it will extract discrete powers from the void to supplement itself; and at the moment of triggering, it will extract a large amount of power from the void. , to support the effect of magic.
However, if you are in a magic-forbidden environment for a long time, the magic circle and magic patterns cannot make up for the naturally overflowing power, and will eventually lose all functions and become a mere work of art or magic teaching material. If you want to restore the activity of a magic circle or magic pattern, the level of trouble is not much different from remaking it.
Therefore, after being placed in the storage space for thousands of years, this stone box has 'died' and became a simple object rather than a magic prop. But what's inside? Is it also 'death'?
"Teacher, do you want to open it and take a look?" Halumi asked her teacher with an eager expression.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Lin still had some scruples. Although the outer box is in this non-threatening condition, it does not mean that the inside is the same. I remember watching zombie movies during the Earth period, and seeing some clay pots and the like with talismans attached to the seals. There was always a supporting character seeking death who would reveal the talisman, just to satisfy his curiosity and trigger a disaster.
Speaking of which, taking the stone box out of the storage space was still too reckless a move. Maybe for Saint Atoli, that is not a space for 'storing' items, but a space for 'sealing'?
If there is an old demon sealed inside, who has been hungry for a thousand years, it will not suck up all the people present once it is opened. Or he was an old ghost whose resentment broke out in Kaifeng in an instant, and the people around him were either dead or disabled.
If it is a very dangerous item, such as uranium-235, which contains strong radiation, you will win the bid if you open the seal. Of course, this kind of thing is too scientific and does not conform to the rules of the mysterious world, but this mysterious world has more and more powerful curses, which are hard to guard against, and people don't know how to die.
All kinds of entanglements made Lin keep changing his expression, holding his head and pulling his hair. The two young apprentices knew that their teacher had begun to get into trouble again and fell into some inexplicable troubles. Obviously, I usually make quick decisions about things, and I will refuse things I don't want to do outright, but there will always be times like this when I worry about things that are meaningless in the eyes of others.
So the girls simply walked into the protective barrier, squatted on the left and right next to the stone box, and said calmly:
"Teacher, we need to open it." "Ah, it's opened."
I seem to hear something? Lin's consciousness returned to reality, and when he turned around, he saw Kaya opening the lid of the stone box. This can make someone fall to the ground and howl involuntarily: "Ah~! The world is going to be destroyed! You scum supporting characters!"
Then, nothing happened...
Lin just looked at the two girls with six eyes, looking at their ugly teacher with garbage eyes.
Six eyes? Strictly speaking, the extra two are not eyes, they can only be regarded as eye holes.
After Kaya opened the lid, Halumi took out a golden human skull. Together with her companions, they looked at the older boy who had runny noses, tears, and was waving his hands desperately. He was obviously frightened.
It seemed like... nothing really happened.
He quickly regained his serious expression and came to the side of the two young disciples in the protective barrier. Lin looked at the golden man's skull, pretending that nothing had happened, and said to himself: "It's made of gold, and it really looks like a human skull. Oh, it has a strong sense of mana and power. This is magic. A prop? Some kind of treasure?"
"Ah." The three masters and disciples shouted at the same time, and they guessed the origin of this item. Kaya's voice was calm and she said, "Teacher, is this a rare item from the Golden Skull series?"
Some rare items with magical properties and special functions are called treasures, including various artifacts. As soon as it appears, it will become the target of everyone's competition, and the holder will also receive corresponding power or benefits.
But there is another kind of rare item that also has magical properties, but is useless, and it will be called a rare item. This kind of thing would just become the target of research, or a very unique collection. The holder... seems to have no other function besides showing off. But for those who know the art, strange objects have no value. The magicians in the Lost World still put pragmatism first.
