Release that Witch

"This is... how did it do it?" Thunder opened his mouth in disbelief.

There are dozens of small holes in the wall, and there is a stone that emits pure white light in each hole. Not only that, but also a strange luminous stone is placed on the top edge of the ceiling. Under the soft light, the hall Every detail is at a glance.

For the first time, Ashes saw the explorer's expression, and he couldn't help but raise a joy. "You don't know? After the witch injects power into the stone, it can inspire extra power."

"Then what? Is it a magic stone?"

The Thunder carefully took out a piece of glowing stone in his hand, and after leaving the hole, its light did not weaken.

"I don't know," Tilly shook her head. "These stones may have been shining here for hundreds of years. If the ruins really have such a long history. They were all hidden behind the slate, so they have not been discovered. And to open this special institution, only witches can do it."

"Don't you let them shine?"

"No, they can shine on their own," Tilly grabbed a piece of magic stone and lifted it to her eyes. The white light reflected her beautiful face. "If this is a device that needs magic to maintain, then it is impossible. It's so easy to get it down, just like a candle can't easily leave the candle. At present, there is nothing special about the hole in the wall except for the placement of the illuminating stone."

"If it's as you said, it can shine on its own, and it can continue to shine for hundreds of years, then the value is simply unpredictable," said Thunder. "To know the snow crystal produced by the Wing Dong Kingdom, a fist-sized piece." You can sell hundreds of gold dragons, and the brightness is less than half of it."

As soon as the sailors heard such amazing prices, the eyes of those stones suddenly changed.

"According to what we said before, you can take half of it," Tilly said, but her focus is not here. With plenty of light, she can explore this hall more carefully. The ashes couldn't bear to see her tearing the seaweed, and simply picked up the big sword. Like the mowing, the plants attached to the wall were swept down. Soon, the second magic stone hidden in the wall was also found.

In the same way, Tilly injects magic into it. Accompanied by the crisp metal crash, everyone was surprised to see that a huge slate above Tiry's head was tilted down, with a number of tight copper ropes on both sides, and the inside was actually a well-cut ladder. Finally, one end of the slate slowly fell to the ground, and the other end led to the top of the ceiling. The ashes looked up and saw a horizontal metal door at the end of the passage.

"Tilly," seeing the five kings and one person without hesitation on the stone ladder, the ash could not help but open the door, "Let me come first."

"It doesn't matter, it's not something... the land of treasures," she climbed to the top of the stone ladder, holding a raised magic stone next to the door, and the metal door quickly opened.

Seeing that Tily got into the door and disappeared into the ceiling, there was no other way to do the ash, so I had to keep up and hold the giant sword in my hand.

Through the top plate, the ashes couldn't help but widen the eyes. I saw that there was a room on the ceiling that was much smaller than the hall. The wall was also embedded with luminescent stones. What surprised her was that there was almost no water soaked here. Mark of.

Wooden tables, chairs, bookshelves, cabinets... everything is intact, covered with thick dust and even broken webs. A row of books was placed neatly on the bookshelf, all of which were grayed out by dust. On the table, in addition to the books that were spread out, there were cups, kettles, and pen holders. There was only a single pole left in the quill, and the ink had dried up. It is like two worlds compared to the hall full of algae and shells below.

The Thunder climbed up the third time and looked around and took a sigh of relief. "Here is..."

"Abandoned home," Tilly picked up the book on the table, gently smashed the dust on it, and flipped through the pages. "Someone has lived here for a long time."

"What did you write above?"

“I don’t understand,” she shook her head and spread the book out to the two. “It’s all words that I have never seen before.”

"It seems to be the same on the bookshelf," Ashes rubbed the dust off the spine with his fingers. The words were like strange wavy lines, which couldn't be read at all.

"We can take it back and study it slowly," Tilly laughed. "According to the agreement, books and magic stones are owned by me."

"Of course," Thunder touched his beard. "But when you find something, I hope to share this old story with me."

"no problem."

......

The three men searched carefully in the second floor room and quickly touched the situation.

They didn't find a new magic stone. Instead, they found a strange shape on the other side of the room. It looked like a thick metal tube. One end was not inside the stone wall, and the other side was narrowed down by section. The thickness of the lower wrist is embedded with a glass lens at the end.

"What is this?" The ash knocked on the tube, and a series of crisp echoes came from inside. The tube was hollow in the middle.

“It’s a bit like a gaze mirror. Maybe people who live here use it to observe the outside world,” Thunder looked at the lens for a while. “Black... nothing, not It is broken."

“Not necessarily,” Tilly pointed to the wall behind the metal tube. “Look here.”

The ashes looked in the direction of her fingers. I saw a copper plate with a handle embedded in the wall. There was a small hole under the handle, which seemed to be the place for the key to be inserted. The five kings walked over and tried to pull the handle, and the copper plate did not move. "It was locked."

"I will come," the ashes took the handle and pulled it hard, and the whole copper plate suddenly fell off the wall.

"Hah, it seems that you are right," Thunder applauded. "It is another magic stone institution."

A huge magic stone stuck in the groove behind the copper plate, unlike the first two, its volume looks much larger and the color is also purple.

"Do you want to activate it?" asked the ashes.

"Well," Tilly nodded without hesitation, holding the stone in her hands, but this time I didn't see the movement for a long time.

"what happened?"

"It... is too big," she said on her forehead. "I feel that it is constantly drawing on magic, as if the organs behind it are huge."

"If you don't forget it," Ashes frowned. She knows that once the magic is exhausted, the witch is likely to fall into a coma directly. It is obviously not a good choice to spend all the magic in such a dangerous place.

"No, it's going to be good, I can feel it." Tilly's voice did not fall, a huge sound came from the wall, like a continuous thunder, and then the whole room shook.

"This is... earthquake?" Thunder held the metal tube in case he fell, and the ashes seized Tilly for the first time and held her into his arms. The dust slammed down and the three couldn't help but cough.

This vibration lasted for almost a quarter of an hour before it gradually returned to calm.

Morrier poked his head out of the stairs. "What happened just now?"

"A new institution," said the ash, "Is it okay?"

"Everyone was frightened, and there were a few roofs that fell. Fortunately, I covered them with magical servants." The little girl walked to her side. "Tilly, what are you looking at?"

Unexpectedly, Tilly did not answer her, her eyes were always attached to the end of the metal tube, and it took a long time to exhale. "It’s incredible..."

Ashes curiously put their eyes together, and then they were shocked by the sights in front of them.

At the other end of the "Looking Mirror", there is a vast expanse of land. The edge of the land is like a cliff, and you can't see it at a glance. In the middle of the cliff, there is a huge stone arch. The door is deep and dark, like a giant mouth that chooses people. (To be continued. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
