"So you think I'm very idle?"
Whether it was due to judgment under the special situation or the same curiosity, Duan Qing finally nodded and agreed to the request of the magic lady in front of him. However, when he silently called out the name in his heart, what he got was It was a rather ruthless reply: "I'm very busy right now, and I don't have time to translate the slate in your hand."
"Uh... are you still busy with that?"
"Of course, after all, it is a request jointly made by you and Freya."
The surrounding magical energy seemed to resonate with the flickering of the slate in Duan Qing's hand in front of him, and Violet's words echoing in Duan Qing's consciousness became shaky: "Look at how pitiful my little junior sister is. Due to Chu Chu’s request and the fact that her sister had such a miserable fate, I decided to make a small contribution and give them a chance to save themselves.”
"In other words, that method is feasible?"
"Even if I didn't interfere, you would have reached this point sooner or later."
There was a hint of helplessness in the words, and the Lord of Violet's voice became sentimental when he answered Duan Qing: "I always say things like being unkind and ungrateful, but I always feel uneasy at times like this. Make up various reasons to intervene...tell me, what trouble did you encounter this time?"
"I don't intend to force others to make things difficult. It would be bad if my dear mentor is tired." So Duan Qing had no choice but to move his eyes to the side: "It's better to pay more attention. I don't want to save this one and then save the other one." Just jump in... Ahem, can you understand the words on these magic stone tablets?"
"Ancient runes." She seemed to recognize the thing in the gray robe magician's hand at a glance, and Violet's answer became less interesting: "I thought it was some high-end stuff, but it turned out to be just - well, this Did you find it in the Sky City?"
"We are still underground in the inner city." Duan Qing slightly turned over the magic stone slab in his hand, letting the rune light reflected on the back appear before his eyes: "There are some similar stone slabs here. It is tentatively concluded that they may be ancient magic. A product of the imperial period—how did you recognize it?”
"It's very simple, because it says it." Violet's answer seemed more direct and natural: "Sona Oh, the biography of Oknos... Well, it is indeed related to the ancient magic empire that once built this city in the sky. It’s about people.”
[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of sounds, and supports offline reading.
Finally, he returned his attention to reality. Shireen Faith, who was still standing around him, also showed a more interested expression at this time, as if she had been waiting for the final result: "How is it? ,Do you understand?"
"Well, there seems to be a biography recorded on it." Having no choice but to tell what Violet told him before, Duan Qing gestured to the magic tablet in his hand: "The story of a man named Sona Ou , the specific content... we still need to wait a little longer.”
"Sona Oh?"
I thought it was just a casual perfunctory, but I didn't expect that Xilin had a huge reaction to the name Duan Qing said. She blinked and looked at Duan Qing and the surface of the stone slab in his hand, seeming to be enduring emotions and waves of thoughts. Suffering a huge impact: "The twenty-seventh leader of the Oknos clan?"
"You also know this name?" The whisperer on the side asked in the same surprised voice: "How do you know this person?"
"I am an expert in the history of magic and ancient writings." Looking back at the murmuring face with sideways eyes, Shireen answered with a bit of rare pride: "I have studied all over this city. For a long time, I have naturally compared the historical relics here with various historical records of the Free Continent. I have heard many names and stories about the Sky City mentioned in them - haha. "
Having said this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her eyes wandered back and forth in this narrow square space for a moment: "I didn't expect to find relevant records about these clan leaders in a place like this. I thought this Nok The city created by the North family has never been designed with a "library" or a "file room". Unexpectedly, it was designed with "slate runes"..."
"Uh, interrupt for a moment." Duan Qing raised his hand in a low voice: "Since you are so professional, I'll leave this slate to you to interpret, and I won't take the credit."
"No, I'm not good at interpreting magic runes." Shireen Fess, who put away her sigh, shook her head: "Since you can understand the meaning, then repeat these specific contents to I’m fine, I’ll write it down without missing a beat.”
But I still don’t know the specific interpretation method.
With such a cry in his heart, Duan Qingqiang held up his smile and returned his gaze to the slate in his hand. While trying to recall the last reminder that Violet had left in his consciousness, he pretended to be okay. He casually threw out some other questions to delay time: "What information is currently known about Sona Ou, the twenty-seventh patriarch?"
"According to currently known information and records, there were twenty-eight patriarchs of the Oknos clan. The last patriarch participated in the final battle of the fall of the ancient magic empire and was wiped out under the sword of Emperor Frey." Shireen helped. He held up his pointed witch hat and said, "Of course, historical inheritance may not be completely accurate. Different records may even have discrepancies. You just don't have to worry about them."
"But I also want to... ahem, it's nothing." Touching his nose to hide his expression, Duan Qing's attention kept wandering on the surface of the magic stone in his hand: "Since the Sky City is still alive, it means that Ou The final fate of the Knox family is not completely connected to this city, so the final encounter of this city in that era is worth studying."
"There are still many unexplained aspects of the city's magic operation methods and design ideas." Xuyu Liushang also explained: "In addition to the parts controlled by the Mage Council, there are still many mysteries about the city's structure. Waiting for knowledgeable people to come forward to answer, including this place——"
Her words stopped where she was, and her eyes were cast in other directions. The other people on the other side of the square space also diverted their attention at this time, and they were embarrassed to cover up what they were doing before. Eavesdropping: "Ahem, um... Oldman, you think this thing looks pretty good."
"That's natural. If you take this thing out, you might be able to sell it for a few bucks... Ahem, what I mean is that this thing has a certain collection value, and it might be more valuable in the eyes of some enthusiasts. Woolen cloth."
"That's right! Noah, you
What do you think? Oh, don't keep silent all the time. It's as boring as a boring gourd - or do you need a psychiatrist? I heard that Yin Liana from the Alchemy Department is very good, with that voice and that figure... tsk tsk. "
"roll."
The low roar brought a perfect end to this moment of farce, and also allowed Duan Qing to successfully avoid the aggressive attack of Shireen Faith, who had already turned around with a sullen aura. Walking towards the other side of the room: "It seems you are still too busy - have you searched the remaining areas?"
"This time I am the leader of the pioneering team and the on-site commander." After a period of silence, Prad Infilidi stood up and pointed at her nose: "Don't overstep, Ms. Shireen."
"...Hmph." She let out a disdainful snort. In the end, the witch had no intention of openly challenging the captain's authority: "Okay, then let's ask our captain to take a look with his own eyes. Is there anything else that can be searched here? The place is ready."
"Collect all the valuable items first, and leave the interpretation and research later." After staring at Shireen for a while, Prader turned around with a feeling of resentment: "Continue on your way, time." It’s getting late.”
"But Captain, we don't know where to go next." Oldman on the side reminded him quietly with a sideways face: "Except for the entrance, we haven't found a new passage yet, so——"
"Oro."
"exist."
As if aware of the other party's sudden mention of his intention, Auro moved forward in response and placed his hands on the edge of the wall. A dull earthy yellow light also appeared around him as he closed his eyes and concentrated. Then the pair of arms sank into the other side of the invisible wall: "Rock crystal vibration - measurement completed."
"There is another passage in that direction, just in the direction we came from." He turned around and opened his eyes: "There must be a collapse in the ground, so we didn't notice it when we came here before."
"There are many benefits to having a rock mage in the team." Smiling and clapping his palms, Oldman turned his attention to Prad: "Then let's——"
"Continue." Ignoring Oldman's smiling face, Prader quietly walked through the crowd and walked out of the room after receiving these words: "Let's find a way to clear out the collapsed passage first."
"What a strange bunch of people."
After reading this sentence in a low voice, Xu Yu Liushang, who had been protecting Duan Qing, gradually let down her guard. She glanced at the back of Xilin, who was also standing still, and whispered a reminder. The gray-robed magician beside him said: "It seems that the relationship between this group of people is more complicated than we imagined... Hello!"
"Ah? What did you just say?" Duan Qing seemed to be immersed in a certain state and was distracted. Duan Qing, who was awakened by a soft drink from the whispers, looked around in a panic: "What's going on? What's going on? We have to retreat. Already?"
"You want to get off work so early, right?" Xu Yu Liushang looked back at the other party with a look of disdain: "Even if you lose interest and don't want to deal with this mess, at least we have to finish our own work, right? The place we discussed before ——Well, what’s wrong with you?”
"It's okay, I just saw something." Duan Qing gestured to the magic slate in his hand again, lowered his voice and exchanged glances: "Some quite exciting stories are written on this."
"You actually understand it?" Xu Yu Liushang whispered: "How did you understand it?"
"I tried to reconnect with these magic records by constructing runes myself, and then discovered the information attached to these runes." Duan Qing explained in a low voice: "Although I am not very skilled in using rune magic, But it is still possible to "pick up" the information content from here, but the speed is a bit slow. "
"What does that say?"
"About the life of Mr. Sona O."
The title had changed a bit, and Duan Qing, who was looking at the scene in the room, slowly replied: "This patriarch completed the "Okonos" that his family has worked hard for for generations, and successfully sent it to the sky, even though there were many things that happened in the middle. few
But in the end, the trust of our ancestors was not insulted... Oh, "Okonos" seems to refer to the city in the sky, maybe. "
"That's why the records about him appear here." Xuyu Liushang, who also looked around, blinked his eyes: "I didn't expect that the ancient magic empire would be destroyed in the end, and their city would also..."
"No, as we can see now, their city has been successfully preserved." Interrupting the other party's words, Duan Qing looked at the room with his eyes fixed on a fixed point: "After all, the Oknos clan is also magic. One of the most prestigious races in the empire, their magic level is also very superior, which not only includes magic technology related to levitation, but also other aspects, such as——"
"The power of foresight. "
