But contrary to Ella's expectations, Shadow seemed to have given up, she agreed to Ling's proposal, and lowered her head.
Shadow walked behind the crowd, and when he was at the same level as Gore, he suddenly raised his head, and a mocking smile was drawn on the corners of his lips again.
"Success."
Ella was taken aback, she knew that the shadow was definitely going to do something, and at this moment she began to fight for control of her body with all her strength.But what surprised her was that the shadow didn't move at all, neither chanting mantras nor doing other actions. Affected by Ella's consciousness, his body became stiff in an instant.
No one noticed that Gao Ermuran's expression became ferocious at this moment.
The next second, he suddenly kicked Shadow's abdomen hard, causing the girl's thin body to fly into the air and fall into the underground lake.
This sudden accident made everyone unable to react!
"Ella!"
Ling then jumped into the underground river, and Edward drew his gun and shot in one go, instantly breaking the remaining good leg of the crippled Goyle.
"No—how could there be no?!"
After a while, Ling got out of the water, her face full of disbelief, she and Ella entered the water one after another, but after entering the underground river, the water was empty.
Ling took a deep breath and got into the water again.
-
After being attacked suddenly, Ella's consciousness fell into confusion. She was about to succeed, and she was able to initially feel synchronously with her body, but her body was still in a state of stiffness.
She fell into the icy body of water, but felt no liquid to the touch.This brought her a great cognitive bias. During the long process of growth, the human body will form a cognition. It will feel moist when it touches water, it will feel hot when it touches fire, and it will feel debilitating when it is cut by a knife. Pain, exposure to ice and snow will be cold, it is a recognition that is born of habit, and the brain responds in advance even before the contact.
But when the environment in which reality is located deviates from the habits of the body, there will be an indescribable sense of unreality.
The moment after falling into the water, the surrounding lights and shadows began to change, and Ayla's consciousness fell down, up, left and right, and in all directions in the bottomless darkness.
It was a long process, but it was as short as a few seconds, time lost its meaning, or she could no longer feel "time" and her own existence.
As a result, there was a gap in her consciousness.
When Ella came back to her senses, the shadow had once again dominated her body, sitting on the stone slab with a half-smile.
"Do you think I will let you find those two professors and then expel me from your body?"
Ella's consciousness was traumatized and she could no longer affect Shadow for at least an hour.
"How did you do it? You shouldn't have a chance to use a mind-controlling spell on Goyle."
"I certainly didn't use anything that troublesome."
Shadow had a trick, and she seemed to take pleasure in Ayla's shock.
"—Well, I just increased his fear through some hints, and convinced Gore that I would kill him. Rather than being killed obediently, it would be better to fight to the death, right? Of course, this stupid The man in question will not get a good ending, maybe he has been torn apart by your companions now? What do you want to ask, although you are going to betray me at any time, as your kind ally, I can still With great mercy, I can answer some questions for you."
Shadow's face was full of the calmness of a victor.
Aila observed the surrounding environment. This place seemed to be a huge and open space. It was not a naturally formed environment. Incomplete stone pillars and murals carved on the mountain wall jointly built this huge stone chamber.
In the center of the stone chamber, there is a strange sculpture shining with golden luster. It looks like a slender tree carved out of gold, but in some places it shows some biological characteristics.
The marble-paved ground is also pale golden, and under the influence of a certain force, their properties are gradually approaching gold.
There are no branches and leaves on the tree made of gold, only a fist-sized round hole is left in the center of the tree, and a shiny gemstone is suspended in it, emitting a dazzling light.
Ella already had some guesses, but still asked uncertainly,
"Where is this, and how did you get here?"
"Of course this is Sibylla's treasure house. As for the second question, you should know that the body of water is the medium that connects the spiritual world and the material world, and it is also the door. Your friends cannot reach here because they lack the door. 'key'.
Ella already vaguely understood that she was shocked that Sibyl's treasure house did not exist in the physical world, but was opened up in the spiritual space, which even the alchemy room of Kraft School could not compare with.Is this the power of the ancient alchemist?
In shock, Ayla noticed a noun,
"key?"
"That's right, either I or that mirror can be the key to open the door to the treasure house. Only through things related to Sibilla can we establish a connection with this space."
The shadow stood up, no longer concealed, baring its fangs,
"Well, the obligations of allies end here. This treasure house will become your tomb. From today on, I am Ella Williams."
Chapter 25 Losers
Accompanied by the mocking laughter of the shadow, Ayla could feel the magic in the stone room starting to work. It was a huge and complicated ceremony, and it even surpassed the magic ceremony of Ayla calling the snowstorm four years ago in terms of level.The shadow chanted complex incantations, which were neither runic nor elvish, but ancient and complex incantations that Ella did not understand.
And now it's only running a certain part of it, and it completely turned the situation to the side of the shadow.
Ella once again entered that chaotic state, and she felt that her consciousness was being pulled out little by little.
The uncoordinated parts of the shadow and the body are gradually decreasing. This is not a long process. In about an hour, Ella's consciousness will be completely expelled, dissipated directly or exiled to an unknown space.
"how did you do it?"
Ella struggled weakly, so she could only slow down the process a little. From the results, it could only prolong the exile process by about 5 minutes. She was still in a weak state due to the previous shock. On the other hand, the magic in the stone room Greatly enhanced the power of the shadow.
"It's very simple. Although I don't know why you still exist, but to be honest, I really can't expel you from this body with my own strength, but relying on the increase of the Philosopher's Stone is a completely different matter."
"Did you decide to do this from the beginning?"
Ayla's hunch was correct; Shadow's deal was so full of deceit that it was impossible for her to honor her terms.
"You too."
Shadow smiled mockingly, his eyes were full of coldness,
"You never planned to trade with me from the beginning. You just planned to let those two professors discover your abnormality and expel me, right?"
She did not slow down the movement of her hands at all, and the light of the weird sculpture in the center of the stone chamber became more and more dazzling. It was a shining inverted triangle light source.
Its core is the gem floating in the void, the legendary golden cup of the prophet Sibylah, the Philosopher's Stone!
In an instant, many runes began to light up in every corner of the stone chamber, and the golden statue began to crack little by little, exposing the contents inside.
It was a strange female corpse. Most of her body had been dehydrated and dried up, but there was no sign of decay. Plant-like roots pierced her body and took root deeply in the ground.There was a fist-sized hole on her left chest, and the Philosopher's Stone was suspended in it, occupying the position of her heart.Fungal tentacles spread outward from every corner of her body.
The woman looked up in a certain direction, her right arm folded across her chest, and her left palm stretched upward. There was a faded star map. Under the light, it made people feel like they were under the stars in the night sky, but in fact, there was only It's just an ordinary stone wall.
A solemn and sacred expression could be vaguely seen on her face, but it suddenly appeared on a strangely shaped corpse.
Human body and plant, sacred and treacherous, presented on this corpse at the same time.
When Ella's consciousness came into contact with the corpse, she felt a strong dizziness, and a large amount of information rushed into her consciousness, almost bursting the girl's consciousness.
At this time, a certain description in Kraft's textbook appeared in front of her eyes.
"Great existence itself represents knowledge beyond the reach of human beings. Remember, don't look directly at the gods!"
Shadow stared blankly at the corpse for a long time, and it seemed that she was not affected as much as Ella. She showed an unbelievable expression, and said a name word by word.
"Sibylah - it's you! Prophet Sibylah! You want to be a god!"
"Is that the prophet Sibylla?"
Aila's influence began to weaken, and it was difficult for her to accept the fact that this last prophet, a great master alchemist, had already touched the soul of the gods!Become a god?This is forbidden wisdom not mentioned in any of Kraft's ancient books!
When her consciousness returned to clarity, Ella had already received part of the knowledge related to this. Sibylla replaced her heart with the Philosopher's Stone and allowed it to continue to perfect her divine body for hundreds of years. When the shadow activated part of During the magic ceremony, Sibylla's preparations have been completed. Although her spirit may have dissipated into the darkness, as long as she becomes a god, that will not be a problem!
But what Ella didn't understand was, in order for the person holding the Eye of Hermes to come to this ruin, does it need to be so complicated?But at this moment, she had no room to think about this question.
The ritual magic had escaped the shadow's control, more and more golden light spots gathered on Sibyl's corpse from all directions, and the roots that had penetrated into the ground also began to emit more brilliance.The golden radiance formed a wide light curtain.
Shadow's face became extremely pale, and she was worried that the scary woman would tear off the vines on her body, walk out of the light curtain from the sculpture, and set foot on the earth again.
But the picture she was worried about did not appear. Even the sunshine that warms everything can't make a corpse warm again.
The dry female skeleton still stood quietly in the sculpture, without any change.
The golden divine fire gradually extinguished, and everything returned to silence.
There was an expression on Shadow's face that looked like he was crying or laughing.
"Even the omniscient and omnipotent you will fail?"
The light scattered everywhere, lighting up the entire stone chamber, but it couldn't light up Sibyl's body.
"Okay, there are only 15 minutes left. The greatest prophet in hundreds of years will be buried with you. It's not bad, right?"
When Sibylla's ritual failed, control of the magic once again returned to Shadow's hands.
Fluorescence emanates from the stone wall, which is a mural. If you call it a mural, it seems to be an overestimation of the painter's skills.
It was completely children's graffiti, some crude stick figures.
"You are lucky. Before you die, you still have a chance to see this kind of thing. I think this is the so-called "Book of the Future". If this discovery is provided to the outside world, it should be the greatest discovery in 500 years. "
The shadow walked towards the stone wall unhurriedly, and Ella's consciousness had gradually become blurred, and the connection between her and this body became weaker and weaker.
The lava surged uneasily in her pupils, but it was gradually restrained, turned gray, and solidified into rock.
"After inheriting your body, I will also inherit everything about you, your friends, your power, including your future - then, let us take a look, what kind of future does Ella Williams have? ?”
Those stick figures began to become muddy, like a drawing board overturned by a young child, various colors were mixed and intertwined, and some new graphics were constructed.
