The sky was slightly bright. Ma Wei sat in the room, staring at the crystal skull and silver tag on the table. After solving the bone giant, the Aurora Society successively discovered traces of other undead in the forest. These monsters were handed over to Edward could just handle it, and Ma Wei took Yunia back to the city of Pechora first.
Thoroughly clearing the forest is not an easy task. Ma Wei estimated that he would have to stay in Pechora City for two days while waiting for news from other areas. This time they left Mosk with the intention of sweeping all the lands in the Romanov Kingdom. The idea of a transcendent race, once and for all.
Stability on the home front is the prerequisite for all operations. If the Romanov Kingdom is in chaos, how can we sneak into the Windsor Kingdom with peace of mind?
Ma Wei picked up the crystal skull and carefully observed the surface texture of the skull. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was like a beautiful piece of art. Except for the gap that blocked the shattering of the black sun, there was no flaw at all. The clear and transparent crystal It glows light blue, and inside the skull, there is a small golden magic circle. When you touch it in your hand, it is warm and delicate, not cold at all, as if it has warmth.
"It's so beautiful..."
Finger caressing the surface of the crystal skull, Ma Wei sighed and couldn't help but wonder, how did this treasure fall into the hands of the bone giant?
Could it be that the Bone Giant didn't appear randomly, but resurrected in a specific location?
Just like Edward, it said that it woke up in an old castle on a seaside cliff with nothing but a crystal coffin and the lampreys that greeted it. At first, Mavey did not take this information to heart. , until I met Kraken, Jinna...
Ma Wei was sure that these extraordinary creatures were artificially sealed. They did not appear randomly, but could only come back to life after the seal was released. But the problem was that the vampire race was completely extinct two thousand years ago, wasn't it?
Edward has told the same dream more than once. It is sitting on the throne of the Black Castle. Fires are flying in the city, mourning is everywhere, and countless golden arrows are missing, symbolizing the fall of the vampire era...
Judging from its behavior of hating the three goddesses of destiny and Anatole, the existence that exterminated the vampires back then was probably the Apocalypse God System!
The pain and hatred of genocide were deeply ingrained in his soul. Even if he lost his memory, Edward could still recall many fragmentary fragments. That was also his obsession.
When fighting Anatole, Edward used the crystal coffin when he woke up, and the Vampire Secret Book that could be summoned at any time... These things have always been with Edward. From this point of view, the Crystal Skull is very It may be the companion creature of the Bone Giant, something it fought desperately to protect before being sealed.
Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the Crystal Skull was secretly given to the Bone Giant by someone else....
Extinct extraordinary creatures reappear in the world, coinciding with the tampered history. Just like the Kraken, there is no point in asking Buggy. The truth she knows has become her own. Reality is no longer the reality of the world.
The appearance of the Crystal Skull also made Ma Wei feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.
if....
Every resurrected extraordinary race has similar powerful treasures and can fight against the awakened Yunia. Doesn't that mean that the church has lost its greatest reliance?
The origin of this skull has become Ma Wei's most curious thing at the moment.
"Budge, are you there?"
"...."
"I have something to ask you."
After a brief silence, a light spot floated out of Ma Wei's chest, transforming into the shadow of a middle-aged man, suspended in mid-air, with a helpless look: "Can't you use a real pocket watch to enter my kingdom of God? You have to. Summon me? I'm not your slave..."
"What's the difference?"
"There's a big difference. It's completely different if you take the initiative to see me and if you summon me!" Buggy, who was once highly respected, is obviously not used to the feeling of being summoned.
"In my opinion, they're pretty much the same."
Ma Wei did not continue to dwell on this topic, held up the crystal skull in his hand and asked: "Do you know this thing?"
Buggy glanced at the crystal skull and was about to sneer disdainfully to show off his huge knowledge reserve. Suddenly his eyes widened and he said in surprise: "The core of the alchemy tree?! Such a big piece! Where did you get it?" !”
"In the hands of the undead...Aren't you the true god who knows everything that happens in the world? How come you don't know about our battle with the undead?"
"I am just a clone and a projection. The real body is in the Kingdom of God. Only when you return to the Kingdom of God can the memories of me and the body be synchronized again."
Buggy circled around the crystal skull and exclaimed: "The core of the alchemy tree is the supreme treasure of alchemy. The magic circle carved on the core can exert twelve points of power! It is more powerful than gold. It also requires high-grade materials! Such a big piece...you found a treasure."
Baji said in a sour voice: "The Alchemy God Tree has long since disappeared, and the tree core can no longer be mined. As the times change, the stock of the previous tree cores is getting less and less. By the Apocalypse Era, it is almost impossible to see it. You are very Lucky, really lucky. If the person who got this skull was stronger, you might have no chance of returning... Not necessarily. If you are willing to summon my body, there is still a glimmer of hope."
"The core of the Alchemy God Tree...is it so rare?" Ma Wei frowned, feeling that Buggy was lying: "You are the main god of the real era, the first god of faith, and you have overturned the rule of the God Tree era. It's you, the tree core that is extremely rare and precious in the eyes of other eras may not be so precious in your eyes..."
"You're right." Buggy smiled and admitted frankly: "The long sword I use, Pergoris, has a large piece of crystal tree core in it. My throne is also made of crystal tree core. Yes, at the end of the Sacred Tree Era, we collected more than half of the tree core stocks on the market and cast them into weapons to use against the ancient gods."
Emotions are what make the tree core stock less... The surprise just now was indeed an act...
Seemingly seeing through Ma Wei's inner slander, Buggy explained: "As far as I know, there should be no more crystal tree cores larger than the size of a fist in the world. This skull is beyond my knowledge. treasure....."
Saying that, Badi sighed: "History really doesn't match up. After a while, maybe I will die completely..."
"If it was useful to be miserable, I would have cried bitterly while hugging the thighs of the three goddesses of destiny." Ma Wei said nonchalantly: "Save it and focus on the right path instead of trying to win my sympathy here. , why not dismantle your throne and give me the crystal tree core inside, so that I might be more biased toward you."
"...You are taking advantage of someone's misfortune, and are acting shamelessly and despicably! Is this the truth you believe in?"
Ma Wei chuckled and said: "First of all, I am not a believer of the goddess of truth. Secondly, I am still in the process of following the truth. Isn't it normal to go astray and make mistakes?"
"...."
Ma Wei raised the skull and shined it into the rising sun: "What is the purpose of the magic circle engraved in this skull?"
"I don't know." Buggy said simply.
Ma Wei turned to look at her.
"What do you think I'm doing? Didn't I just say that this skull is a treasure beyond my knowledge? I don't even know it exists, so how can I know the effect of the magic circle inside?"
The Bone Giant used the crystal skull to activate three kinds of magic. One was a strange mist that made Edward lose his fighting ability, the other was a defensive magic against the Black Sun Judgment, and the third was a sacrificial magic circle that covered half of the forest.
These three kinds of magic, except defensive magic, are of no use to Ma Wei. Overall, this crystal skull should be a treasure exclusive to the undead, and the magic array inside is also tailor-made for the undead.
Maybe... we can go back and try to replace the magic circle inside with the magic of the Church of Truth... Such good materials cannot be wasted... Ma Wei thought in his mind.
"What is this tag used for?" Putting down the crystal skull, Ma Wei picked up the silver tag hanging around the neck of the Bone Giant.
"The Mithril Tag is an extraordinary item used to shield one's own aura. It is a treasure created by the Golden Gods. It can interfere with the gods' perception and prevent others from prying into it. The production method has been lost." Baji said calmly: "Master it. We, who have a large number of tree core weapons, should not lose to the Golden Gods, but they used the Golden Law to condense a strange material like mithril, evading our pursuit and lurking under our noses. , and finally defeated the True God System.”
When she said this, Baji's tone was calm, as if she was talking about a matter that had nothing to do with her. Her free and easy attitude also impressed Ma Wei.
"so...."
With his eyes narrowed, Ma Wei played with the finger-sized silver tag and said thoughtfully: "As long as you wear this tag, you can block the perception of the outside world and prevent the gods from knowing your existence?"
"Um."
"Will wearing a tag affect my own strength?"
"Won't."
"So what happens if you use the power while wearing a tag?"
"The mithril tags created by the Golden Gods have magic circles engraved inside them. By inputting power, you can create an area that cannot be perceived by the outside world... Simply using power when wearing the tag will interfere with the tag from the inside. The territory will be exposed." Buggy saw that Ma Wei's expression was a little subtle and couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to do with it?"
"To Yunia, I think she will like this gift."
