"……Then what?"
The whistling wind roared past my ears, and the hum generated by the friction of the saturated energy seemed to place the entire area in the center of the rising storm. The Snow Spirit Magic Ice endured the numbness on the surface of the body. Then he also wrinkled his eyebrows, and the autumn-like eyes that appeared under the two slender eyebrows also showed a somewhat funny look: "I don't seem to feel any changes."
"Wait, wait, am I moving wrong?" Duan Qing, who stared closely at the scene of small stone pillars arranged together in front of him, and maintained his casting posture for a long time without moving, finally showed a dry smile: " Even with such a strong reaction, how could it not be activated? This beam of light has already broken through the sky!"
"Perhaps you only got the first step right, so the concentrated energy showed signs of being activated." Fulla, who followed up later, replied in a calm voice: "The current concentration of wind elements in the local area is still continuing. Increase, we must find a way to vent, otherwise——"
"It will make a bang, right?" A few black lines popped up on his face, and the gray-robed magician gritted his teeth in a matter-of-fact voice: "Hey, I didn't expect that I would have to face such a dilemma in the end... Look quickly, is there anything else that hasn’t been done yet?”
"Don't be anxious, think about it step by step." Slightly pressing the shoulder of Duan Qing who was looking around, Xue Ling Huan Bing then returned his attention to the surface of the small stone pillar in front of him: "Yes Isn’t it just the first stone pillar that is placed correctly?”
"Thank you for your reminder. The position of the first stone pillar is fixed." Duan Qing replied expressionlessly: "It is a great gift given to us by the system. The so-called array only uses it as the starting point. That’s all.”
"Well, okay." She shrugged helplessly, and Xueling Huanbing retracted her raised eyebrows between the emerald green storm in the sky: "Are there any other elements that need to be explained? What are the rules for arrangement?"
"Rules? The only rule is that the magic energy of the wind element is needed to move these stone pillars." Duan Qing curled his lips and replied calmly: "I will be responsible for operating the wind element and move these stone pillars." The stone pillars are guided to the position where they can be guided, and the rest is just to arrange them back and forth to find the sequence that successfully activates this central function."
"It's like the last screw in a machine, right?" She pinched her chin and nodded. Xue Ling Huan Bing's long white hair bathed in the emerald green storm energy also rose high as she leaned forward: "Let me see - how about screwing the second post on top?"
"What's the reason?"
"No reason, woman's intuition."
Xue Ling Huan Bing replied calmly and irresponsibly, looking back at Duan Qing with a wry smile with the same plain eyes: "You can choose not to believe it, and there will be no loss anyway."
"Well, we can't stop here anyway." He curled his lips and retracted his gaze. Duan Qing raised his arms unsteadily: "The stage has been set for you, but I want to remind you: only Only after the lighting, sound and special effects are fully assembled can we see what the stage will look like completely.”
"It doesn't matter, I don't understand anything anyway." Pointing in another direction randomly, Xue Ling Huan Bing's voice also echoed in the scattered air between the two people as the third slender stone pillar rotated: " Anyway, let me give you an answer based on the idea you tried randomly before - Huh?"
"..."
Xue Ling Huan Bing made a sound of surprise, and her words stopped at a strange position. The obvious abnormality also attracted the attention of the other two people, and their gazes that turned around were instantly focused. Beside her: "What's wrong?"
"Although I want to say that we can find these patterns hidden among the screws through trial and error." Without answering Duan Qing's question immediately, Xueling Huanbing's expression gradually became serious: "But... these surroundings Is the location of the small stone pillars here somewhat similar to the location of the stone pillars outside?"
"You mean, they should be arranged in the same position as the stone pillars we passed before?" Duan Qing glanced in the direction behind him, and his expression became helpless the next moment. : "We saw the approximate location once when we first entered this cave. Who can remember it now?"
"There's no need to remember, it's right behind us." She closed her eyes slightly, and then Fulla let out a unique smile when she realized the key: "Leave it to me. I am fairly confident in my ability to sense space... Hmm."
"What happened this time?"
"……wrong."
The smile on his face stagnated for a moment, and Fulana's expression in front of Duan Qing also showed a hint of confusion: "In the same ring, some stone pillars appear twice, and in some places none of them appear. no."
"Has it been moved?" Xue Ling Huan Bing asked with a slightly anxious expression: "Should we follow the current prompts to fill it in? Or should we go back and restore the stone pillars to their original positions?"
"Even without the obstruction of the thick fog, the stone pillars we can see along the way are only a fan in the entire ring area." Duan Qing, who was trying to control the central hub in front of him, also shook his head: "We don't It is possible to obtain all distribution information on the entire ring area."
"This clue is really useless."
Shaking his head deeply, Xue Ling Huan Bing took a step back and pressed his forehead with a bitter smile: "The energy storm has reached its limit. We have no time to investigate other parts of this ruins."
"No, this is a very useful clue." Duan Qing, who answered her, then smiled slightly: "I have actually repaired this ruins before, and I still have some impressions of the magic circuit repair in this place. , coupled with my familiarity with this ring distribution——"
"The so-called disc-shaped structure is not unique to this family."
As he said these words, he twisted his wrist and then stretched towards the central hub of the ring where the large and small stone pillars were located. The stone pillars wrapped by the wind then began a new round of movement under Duan Qing's movements, and under the countless crystal Dragging the magical light, it criss-crosses quickly. Sweat beads of concentration flowed from his forehead, and Duan Qing's breathing became more and more rapid as the streams of light passed by. The position of the stone pillars that had crossed the surface of the disk countless times due to attempts also followed him. The center of his pupils showed one possibility after another, and the number of needle-shaped stone pillars that inexplicably stopped at certain positions began to increase: "——This time!"
"It's okay!"
He made his final declaration, and at the same time pointed at the last remaining arrangement of stone pillars displayed in front of him and raised his palms. The brilliant sparks then replaced the countless emerald storms that originally surrounded here, like rolling Like shooting stars, they scattered towards every corner of the cave.
*********************************
"You guys have caused quite a fight this time."
Some time later, in the center of the Wind Ruins, the countless ruins and broken walls that were originally buried above the cave had disappeared with the disappearance of the storm. Large areas of overturned soil and grass clippings were also accompanied by the appearance of a large crater, and the explosion scattered them. In the distance around this ruins: "It actually completely destroyed this ruins."
"It's not as serious as you said. This ruins was originally in a state of destruction."
Slowly crawling out from the center of these huge pits, the gray-robed magician named Duan Qing greeted Surtu, who was standing on the upper edge of the huge pit, with a gray-headed look and sighed: "We are just... It just stimulates the hidden magic source under the ruins, it’s no big deal.”
"Stimulated the magic source? Where is that thing now?"
"So you are extremely lacking in knowledge about magic? Don't be afraid of embarrassment and just speak up."
Duan Qing, who put on a helpless look and said sarcastic words, then climbed up to the edge of the giant pit with difficulty and embarrassment: "The source of magic power after being stimulated will naturally carry with it what it was supposed to do." The effect has been exhausted, what else is left?"
"...What is the role of this magic source buried underground in this ruins?" Surtu took a deep breath and asked solemnly with his hands behind his hands: "Is it related to God's guidance?" related?"
"Why, Surtu has also heard of those prophecies and the like?" Duan Qing raised his eyebrows and looked back at the face above with a look of surprise: "I thought You are here to save us."
"I am now the leader of the Sioux clan. It is impossible for me to put myself in danger for the disappearance of adventurers like you." Shaking his head, Sultu replied in a low voice: "But if it is for the sake of the disappearance of our clan, With the rumors passed down from generation to generation and the hope of revival, the risk will become worth it.”
"Although a little sad, we did find some information underground in this ruins." With a look of regret on his face, Duan Qing then stretched out his hand behind him and said: "You don't need to ask, we originally We also plan to share this information with the Sioux people, but before that, can we let the wounded in our team take a rest? Counting the time spent exploring the ruins earlier, we have spent enough energy outside for a long time."
"...That's fine." He turned around with his hands behind his back, and Surtu's eyes gradually left Duan Qing's direction: "Then you should take a rest first, follow me."
"Thank you, clan leader." Duan Qing nodded, and then greeted behind him: "Come on, let's go back."
"I seem to see a familiar face." The forward steps stopped for a moment, and the voice belonging to Surtu sounded in front of Duan Qing again: "There was a big commotion in our clan, and then The woman who saved us again?”
"Yes, he also saved us in this accident." Knowing that the other party was referring to Fula, Duan Qing smiled and stretched out his hand to show: "When the time is right, I will be responsible for introducing you."
"You should have felt it." Ignoring Surtu's meaning, Fulla stepped forward and pointed towards the distance behind the giant pit in a low voice: "The last explosion just now——"
"Yes, all the energy leaves in a specific direction." Still maintaining the smile on his face, Duan Qing calmly blocked Fula's slender and slender body behind him: " Now is not the time to say this, we can’t catch up anyway, right?”
"..."
"I understand your desire to explore the truth in a hurry, but we'd better take a break first." Looking sideways at Fula's silent face, Duan Qing sighed and continued to persuade: "Including yourself. Unfortunately, none of us are physically fit to continue fighting."
"Come on, you two."
His voice paused for a moment, and then he raised his voice in the direction of Asahi Dongsheng and Gedman, who were revealed above the giant pit, and said, "Protect Fula and go back together."
"Does she still need us to escort you?" He muttered this to himself, and Asahi Dongsheng, who came forward, then asked with a mysterious face: "Tell me, what happened down there? Is it this person? Is the great god mad again?"
"With your IQ, you won't be able to guess it in this life. Let's talk about it when we go back." After shaking his head, Duan Qing pushed his hand towards the other party angrily: "Don't forget our current situation. Could it be? Do you want to encounter more attacks?"
"Before you made this big hole, this place had almost turned into a world of storms." Gedman, who also came forward, shook his head and replied: "But that's it, even if there are new attacks, The possibility is slim, but it’s always good to be careful.”
"let's go."
The departing figures disappeared one after another into the scene on the edge of the giant pit. The gray-robed magician then whispered behind him: "What are you still standing there for?"
"I'm thinking about what happened just now." Xueling Huanbing, who slowly walked to Duan Qing's side, and finally appeared here, replied in a low voice with an indifferent voice: "You should have heard those voices, you, you... …You know what it means, don’t you?”
"How is that possible?" Spreading his hands in a helpless manner, Duan Qing replied casually: "Even the final arrangement was made randomly. How could I possibly know more?"
"A random attempt?" There was a feeling of disbelief in his eyes, and the extremely low voice of Xue Ling Huan Bing also echoed in Duan Qing's ears: "Don't try to hide it from my eyes, the final arrangement of those stone pillars is even They all look familiar to me."
"The order that looks like a mess is actually somewhat similar to something you own."
