After waking up

Sabastina, the true guard of the Black Castle during this period, is just like the old wizard before. During this period, she needs to come forward for some necessary things in the Black Castle, including Mulan's advancement.

After Mulan's advancement was completed, this extraordinary person who wore a red robe and almost never showed his true appearance returned to his residence.

This is a withered giant tree. Although this tree does not look very tall, the trunk of the whole tree needs at least eight or nine people to hug it. If it were still alive, it would definitely have towering green leaves and lush green leaves. Unfortunately, it should have been long ago Already dead, the withered branches looked like they were showing their claws.

On top of the dead trees, there are strange and slightly twisted houses. They are connected high and low. They are connected to each other by passages with stairs. There are bursts of light shining through some houses.

This is one of the restricted areas of the Black Castle, the residence of the red-robed professor Sabastina, and the room she is in at the moment is a room full of circular bookshelves, with a special oil lamp placed on a round table in the middle. It was filled with overlapping or open books, and there were also some parchments and old papers spread out.

Sabastina's dry, bandaged fingers traced the words on the paper in front of her, and then looked at the book next to her.

"Is it an echo of the other world? There are almost no echoes of the other world in Quinas language."

She moved her withered hand to the side, and another black book flew out from the bookshelf and landed on her desk. This book had a ghost face painted on the cover, which looked particularly scary.

Sabastina reached out and touched the cover of the book, and the grimace came to life. At first it was just a twist of lines on the screen, and then it slowly swelled and became more and more three-dimensional, as if it were a thin and pale face embedded in the black book. , his face was trembling slightly, and his eyes were a thin slit, as if they had been closed.

"Hehehehe, Sabastina, you came to see me again, you must have forgotten nothing, right?"

The bandage on the red-robed man's right hand slowly unraveled on its own. He pinched the tip of his index finger with his thumb, and then raised his hand to the book cover. A drop of bright red blood fell, and the face on the book cover opened his mouth to catch it.

"Well, it's so delicious. More, more."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and answer my question. In the Quinas language, does Silusas have any other meanings? You know that I don't mean the conventional meaning, but the magical meaning."

The expression on the face on the book cover is very intoxicating, and he speaks while thinking about it.

"If you want to know the magic language, such a small sacrifice is not enough. However, it happens to be a topic that interests me, so I will make an exception and tell you."

The face on the book cover opened his eyes slightly, and it seemed to be dark inside. But if you look carefully, there is a faint light in the depth, like a faint star in the darkness.

"Let me think about it, is it Silusus?"

The pronunciation of the book-covered face was extremely weird, as if it was always the fourth tone, but Sabastina's eyes lit up.

"That's right!"

In fact, when Mulan advanced last night, the reverberating voice was very close to the tone on the face on the book cover at the moment. What she told Grandor was instead a regular pronunciation, but compared to the one that was advanced by the Glory Knight at that time. The scene, coupled with the close pronunciation, easily reminded Sabastina of the normal word "Silusus".

But at this moment it seems that there is something else to say.

The ghostly face on the book cover revealed a strange smile.

"Hehehe, as a scholar in this field, you should understand that Quinas language, like some ancient languages, is a worship language originally born in sacrificial activities."

Sabastina said nothing and waited for the other party to continue.

"Silu Sas, the word 'West Road' means light in the Quinas language, but to be precise, it can represent the setting sun, and by extension, it represents the interface between light and darkness before the sinking. 'Sas' means The word represents strength and also refers to a powerful warrior, but that’s the normal written meaning. If it’s the way I read it just now, hehehehehe.”

"No nonsense!"

Sabastina couldn't bear the laughter of the ghost face in the book, but the latter really stopped laughing and spoke again in that weird four-tone tone.

"Silusas can also mean messenger, but ancient languages, especially Quinas, were originally used for sacrifices, so from the perspective of sacrificial meanings, the meaning of messenger is more noble, and the meaning of apostle is more appropriate, combined with Silusus’ common term is, the Apostle of Perdition.”

"If a person transforms into a transcendent, and there are such shouts around him, what does this mean?"

"It's just a title, nothing more. You know, there are many thoughts of the dead in the past in this world, and it's normal to have Quinas people. It can only be said that it echoes some phenomena, such as what outstanding attributes this person may have. Echoing the fantasies of the ancient Quinas people can easily trigger echoes from the other world, which is uncommon but not surprising."

In fact, in ancient times, there were a lot of neurotic behaviors among the Quinas people, so it doesn't mean anything.

After finishing speaking, the book-covered ghost face began to smack his lips again, as if he was still savoring the taste of that drop of blood.

"Of course, if you take me to see that person, I might be able to see it more clearly. Well, now you'd better give me some more sacrifices, give me some more."

Sabastina didn't say anything. She picked up the black book and threw it gently, then threw it back into the bookshelf. The voice of Ghost Face also stopped abruptly.

Even if it is indeed within the normal range and favored by the ancient consciousness of the Quinas people, I am afraid that Professor Mulan Jonst will have some special magic power, the magic power of the Quinas system.

Sabastina is now seriously considering whether, as a researcher who is very interested in the mysticism of the Quinas system, she can invite Mullan Jonst to participate in some excavations.

While the red-robed professor was thinking, Mulan himself had already arrived at the main building area of ​​the castle. He was wearing a windbreaker and holding a cane. After approaching the main building, he did not walk in directly. Instead, he looked around and glanced at the upper edge of the castle. of some sculptures.

The distance between the imaginary world and reality seems very close here.

The next moment, Mulan drew out his fangs and lightly moved forward, as if tearing a hole in a blurry curtain. He stepped out and walked into it.

This is not yet the otherworld, but the interface between the otherworld and reality. When Mulan stepped into it, he found that the surrounding colors were fading rapidly. In just a few seconds, everything seemed to be in a gray-white tone. .

But when Mulan looked at himself, his clothes, cane and other items were basically the same as the outside world, and they were "colored".

Today, Mulan has transcended reality and is a complete and true transcendent.

Looking at the castle again, the castle seemed darker. There were more gargoyle statues above. Some even spread their bat-like wings and flew in the sky. Many of them were looking at Mulan.

Mulan opened the inner pocket of his coat, revealing a badge engraved with special runes, which was the symbol of the Empire's Ministry of Magic. Then Mulan walked directly to the castle and stepped into it.

The colors inside the castle are brighter than outside. There are always torches burning around the halls, and the colors are very vivid.

Mulan kept walking forward. There was only his footsteps and his breath in the huge castle. He passed through door frames one after another and passed through corridors one after another. It seemed that no other means of protection could be seen.

When Mulan entered the basement and reached the end of the basement corridor, he finally saw a golden door, which was densely engraved with patterns, some of which were composed of runes and warlocks he knew, and some of which even he could not see. I understand and have never even seen it.

And above the door frame, there is a spiraling golden snake statue.

‘This is the so-called forbidden door. ’

Thinking this, Mulan reached out and touched the door. The golden snake that was originally a statue came to life. The snake's head extended from above with a letter spitting out a letter. A pair of cold snake eyes stared at Mulan.

"Ministry of Magic member Mullan Jonster is about to enter the Forbidden Door."

With that said, Mulan revealed his mark badge again. The golden snake stared at the badge for a while, then moved away, and the golden door slowly opened at this time.

Mulan was feeling a little excited at the moment. As a formal member of the Empire's Ministry of Magic, Mulan had viewing rights but not calling rights, but that was enough for today.

Inside the Forbidden Gate is a golden hall with a circular wall, covering an area of ​​hundreds of square meters. The walls are densely covered with storage pits engraved with spell arrays, as if there are many grids stacked on the wall, and outside each grid All have a layer of glass.

Some of these grids are empty, while others contain items. The items inside are of various kinds, including some rare materials and special elements.

In addition, there is a gray door at regular intervals on the wall. There are eleven doors in total. These doors are also full of engravings. Mulan knows that behind each door represents a sacred object.

Based on the principle of proximity, Mulan chose a door next to him. With just a slight touch, the door became transparent, but it could not be opened. A light blue halo undulated inside like breathing.

The sacred object has its own form of expression here, so it has this obvious luster, but in reality, it is also likely to be inconspicuous.

Seeing this kind of light seems to be a special kind of beauty, and I can't help but want people to have it.

This is the sacred breath of the sky. In the last war, the Dilga royal family used it to fight against Basman's terrifying army of sky airships.

Mulan stretched out his hand and grasped the holy object from afar, as if he could grasp the holy object in the palm of his hand. He deliberately spread his spiritual desires in his heart and sent out real and strong thoughts.

‘Sooner or later you will be mine! ’

As if it sensed Mulan's desire and responded, the radiance of the holy object became more intense.

As quickly as it came, it left quickly. Mulan quickly walked out of the forbidden door. He needed to think about another issue, how to truly destroy a sacred object?

Maybe the alchemist will have the answer?
