He originally thought that the "Hidden Tower" should be a tower, but after actually entering it and going down the dark and damp stone steps, Li Liang realized that the "Hidden Tower" was more like a bottomless well, or a dark tomb.
Every few floors, many grooves will appear on the wall, and creatures of different shapes are curled up inside. Some are like corpses, motionless, and some have a calm expression, as if they are in meditation, and there are many powerful Horcruxes among them.
However, the weird thing is that what traps them is neither magic nor technological equipment, just an ordinary round shape sprinkled with some kind of powder.
The "bamboo" creatures leading the way are unhurried and the stone steps seem to never end.
Li Liang gradually became anxious.
When the bounty hunters surrounded him, Makosik City showed no reaction. When the bounty hunters were about to take action, Makosik City turned a blind eye. Three-quarters of them appeared on the streets openly, and Makosik City just sent out their weapons. A team of magical creations appeared and rotated at the junction of the Carbon Zone and the Silicon Zone.
He was not sure whether this situation was due to the intervention of Prince Mass or Bond, but he knew that after killing three goblins in three quarters, Makosik City could not continue to sit idly by.
What worried him more than his own safety was what answer the high priest would give.
Climbing down the stairs in an unchanging manner, the time seems to be extremely long.
finally.
Stepping down the last stone steps, Li Liang stepped on frozen soil as hard as rock, and in front of him was an uncarved stone door.
The "bamboo" creature moved away and stood quietly by the door.
Li Liang stepped forward without hesitation, and the stone door opened, revealing darkness inside. He checked out of the corner of his eye that Teemo and Three-Quarters were following closely behind, and then crossed the threshold.
The temperature dropped again, with temperatures in the "protective bubble" approaching freezing.
There was numbness at the end of his body. Li Liang clenched his fists hard and looked around.
The darkness here gives people a sticky and thick feeling. The dim light source at the door can only illuminate a small area, and the light falls into other places and is quickly swallowed up.
Boom.
The stone door closed, and deep darkness poured in from all directions.
Li Liang turned his head and looked into the darkness. In Ling's field of vision, there was a dazzling Horcrux slowly approaching.
After a moment, Teemo whispered in surprise from behind: "Condensation trap, condensed matter life."
Li Liang opened his eyes and saw a touching scene.
Not far away, a bright light seemed to turn into a liquid, moving forward in a wave-like manner at a slow flow rate, spreading into irregular shapes. Then, the liquid light hit the invisible wall, rolled back, but did not follow the follow-up. The light liquids collide but pass through each other.
Soon, the flowing light formed a stable cycle, and black patches began to appear on the wavy liquid surface. The light entering them seemed unable to escape and disappeared.
Black patches appear one after another, and their positions vaguely follow the laws of a certain magnetic field, constantly rotating.
If the previous Horcrux hadn't stayed in this liquid light, it would have been difficult for Li Liang to believe that this was a life. He originally thought that the electromagnetic cloud could give birth to wisdom, which was an exaggeration.
At this time.
In the bright liquid light pool, the frequency of flashing of black spots accelerated, and the crests of some liquid light waves in the center suddenly rose and fell back quickly, rising and falling, like a waveform.
The air in the "protective bubble" vibrates, producing a sound like a theremin, and the translator automatically converts it into Chinese: "Demigod chosen by the God of Chaos, why do you come to me?"
Li Liang took a deep breath and asked: "High Priest, I am here to ask you whether the magical characteristics of Machisas can be changed."
The liquid light pool fluctuated more intensely, and black spots flashed rapidly.
"O Machisas...you have summoned me, and there is no room for regret...Fairies and humans ask the same question...Fairies and humans are confused by the same magic talisman."
Above the pool of liquid light appears an image woven by light, a circular pattern with intricate internal lines.
"Yes, that's it," Li Liang recognized the pattern at a glance as the magic talisman array underground at Zhuos lair headquarters.
"Then, my answer is still... the magical characteristics of Machisas cannot be changed."
Li Liang was stunned, with despair filling his heart, and asked unwillingly: "Why?"
"The seven qualities that return to chaos, fertility, penance, agreement, cornerstone, resonance, nature, awakening, the seven creative forces govern the power of 'change'. Among them, the penance prime represents some eternity in infinite changes. The unchanging characteristics inspire "penance" and believers who choose the sealed path are pursuing the secret of 'eternity'.
Archangel Machisas, who occupies the Sephiroth of the 'Scepter', connects 'moment' and 'eternity'.
On the road of Aqi, life forms continue to move from order to disorder, and eventually irreversibly decline. The magic talisman array in front of you is a great gift from Machisas to believers. It can make the consciousness of the caster in Aqi. Wandering briefly between Lu and Jezila, he glimpses "order" in the chaos, thus dispelling the terrible consequences of chaos.
If the magic talisman is disturbed or even interrupted, the caster's consciousness will be lost in the abyss of Jezira forever, and the power of 'chaos' will be completely out of control.
Human demigods, 'What you have summoned cannot be regretted' is not a ruthless declaration, but a sincere warning from Machisas to his believers. It should be noted that power never comes out of thin air, nor can it go away. Everyone The caster must take responsibility for his or her own choices. "
The high priest's calm and frank words shattered Li Liang's last illusion.
The reason why the goblin chose this magic talisman array was obviously to ensure that the 'new world' could "awaken" again after swallowing countless consciousnesses and maturing, so as not to fall into endless confusion of thinking. In fact, the talisman array did play a role. As a result, if Cain hadn't intervened, the heroic spirit would have regained consciousness with the help of the talisman array.
However, there is always a price to pay for gaining power. The high priest's meaning is very clear. The inability to stop the talisman formation is not a "setup" of Machisas, but an inevitable consequence of this kind of magic. You will bring the blame on yourself and taste the bitter consequences.
impossible.
Li Liang shook his head, unable to accept this answer.
Cain told him that the "New World" that could predict the future said that Machisas' magical characteristics could be changed, so she made a desperate move to snatch the power of the "New World" with the heroic spirits, suspend the process of the magic talisman, and fight for him. time.
Tam also said that there are precedents for magical features to be broken.
"Is there no possibility of change?" Li Liang asked through gritted teeth, "You have also seen that I am a demigod."
"Your Horcrux shook the magic circle of the Hidden Tower, making me realize that you are a demigod chosen by the God of Chaos. However, as the elf said, you are still naive and have a very poor understanding of the power of creation. Shallow..." The fluctuations in the liquid light pool gradually weakened, "Young demigods may only enlighten the 'penance' essence, choose the 'sealing' path, cross the triple abyss, hold the sword of order tightly, and explore 'eternity' Only after knowing the secret can you know whether there is any possibility of change..."
The sound gradually faded away, and the fluctuations caused by the liquid light slowly dissipated. Finally, the surroundings returned to darkness, leaving only a long sigh echoing: "Human beings, 'possibility' is a kind of seal, and life is a prison, trapped in it... "
for a long time.
Teemo asked: "Where to go next?"
Li Liang raised his head suddenly: "Go..."
Sudden.
The communicator vibrated in his ears, interrupting his words.
After being connected, Bond's voice came from the communicator: "Three-quarters of the three goblins killed were the wind chimes guarding my grandmother's cabin. The Nordrassil Council had just put pressure on Makosik City, demanding that they immediately Arrest you, Li Liang, no matter what you are doing, it will be too late if you don’t escape!"
