Section 1928 Abnormal Behavior
"No outsiders have entered the ruins? How is this possible?" The tree spirit was full of disbelief: "If no outsiders came in, what happened to this knight armor? Could it be that it appeared out of thin air?"
Faced with the tree spirit's doubts, Rhine not only did not refute, but also nodded: "You are right, this knight armor really appeared out of thin air."
The place where the knight armor first appeared was naturally the place where Rhine paid the most attention. He used the Eye of Truth to check it repeatedly in the top corridor many times, and found a lot of information in the cracks of time. And from this information, a conclusion can be drawn: there is no trace of the knight armor moving, it just appeared out of thin air at a certain time! And it has not moved since it appeared, until Angel packed it up and took it away a few days ago.
After listening to Rhine's narration, the tree spirit frowned. Although he did not ask Rhine what specific information he got from the Eye of Truth, he believed in the conclusion Rhine came to.
Since the knight armor appeared out of thin air in the corridor, does that mean...
"Could it be that there is a hidden room near the place where the knight armor appeared?" Angel suddenly said.
Angel's words happened to be what the tree spirit was thinking at the moment.
However, Rhine shook his head and denied it: "I can't be sure, because I didn't find anything unusual near the knight armor. If there is a hidden room or a hidden passage, there must be traces. But I can't find any traces, even in time."
Sanders pondered: "The knight armor appeared out of thin air, which must mean some kind of space magic. Since it is a space magic, you can't stick to one point."
"You have the door of illusion, so you should know that space magic can be used for short-distance displacement. There may be a hidden room where the knight armor is found, but its probability is actually no different from other places in the ruins."
In other words, if the knight armor really comes out of the hidden passage in the case of space displacement, then he can fall to any position in the ruins, rather than being fixed at a certain point.
Angell also understood what Sanders meant. He said with a little regret: "In this case, there is still no clue."
When Angell was depressed, Rhine said again: "In addition, I found two places that I was somewhat concerned about, but it is hard to say whether they are clues."
Generally speaking, anything that can give wizards spiritual feedback has some kind of foreshadowing. Of course, it is also possible that he is just overthinking.
However, since Angell and Sanders have nothing, Rhine is worth analyzing and discussing no matter what information he gets.
"The first point that concerns me is the bronze plate on the door." Rhine paused and turned his head to look at the door of the study: "In fact, I think it may have nothing to do with the knight's armor, and it may not even have any meaning. But since it makes me feel spiritual, maybe it has some meaning."
Bronze plate on the door?
Angel naturally knew what Rhine was referring to. Walking down from the corridor, there are three floors below. There is a bronze plate hanging on the door of the room on each floor.
When Angell first entered the ruins, the first thing he noticed was these bronze plates. Because each of the bronze plaques had a sentence written in sloppy cursive characters.
For example, the bronze plaque in the reception room reads "Although it is used for meeting guests, there are not many guests who are qualified for me to meet."
Another example, the bronze plaque in the material library reads "The material library is so large, it is better to expand the laboratory."
Because the words on these bronze plaques have very distinct personalities, which are both complaints and highlighting the characteristics of the owner in certain aspects. Therefore, Angel remembers it very clearly.
However, what puzzled him was that this series of bronze plaques were not placed by the original owner of the ruins, but hung by the second owner, Tizarro.
According to their speculation, Tizarro should have nothing to do with the knight's armor.
"You also know that the words on the bronze plaque were written by Tizarro. Is there anything strange about this?" The tree spirit spoke at this time and asked Rhine about Angel's doubts.
Rhine: "Maybe it has nothing to do with the knight's armor, but there is something strange about the bronze plate."
Rhine paused when he said this, not to create a context and atmosphere, but to stretch out his hand and twist it in the air.
From the naked eye, there was no movement, but at the level of mental power, it can be seen that Rhine turned a tiny mental power into several almost micro-centimeter silk threads, which rushed to various parts of the ruins at a very fast speed.
In less than half a second, the mental power thread was retracted. At the same time, the four bronze plates placed on the door were also retracted.
These four bronze plates represent the reception room, study, material warehouse and laboratory respectively. Under each bronze plate, there is a corresponding cursive character.
Rhine put the bronze plate on the desk and motioned them to look at it again.
"There seems to be nothing wrong with these bronze plaques. The sarcastic tone, as well as the secret self-expression, are exactly the same as Tizarro's character." The tree spirit looked at the bronze plaques. Just from those few short sentences, he seemed to see Tizarro using disdainful eyes, muttering in a proud tone, and writing on the door with his favorite Sikkim pen.
"It's true that the bronze plaque was written by Tizarro. At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it. However, when I used the Eye of Truth to check it, I found an interesting piece of information in the gap of time." Rhine said this and pushed one of the bronze plaques out of the four bronze plaques.
"The time of writing on this bronze plaque is different from the other bronze plaques, and there are obvious signs of modification."
All other bronze plaques were written almost at the same time. This is actually normal and conforms to the behavioral inertia of anthropology. When humans decide to do a series of homogeneous things, they basically choose to do it at the same time, or at a similar time.
It's like putting house numbers on each room in a building, starting from 101 and ending at 901. This kind of homogeneous and easy-to-do series of things will generally be completed on the same day, and even if it is delayed, it will not be delayed for too long.
The same is true for the bronze plaque written by Tizarro. Since it has been started, it will probably be completed on the same day.
This is indeed the case. The other three bronze plates were all written on the same day, but the one pushed out by Rhine was written the latest and had traces of erasure.
"Is the timeline of the behavior logic wrong?" The tree spirit murmured in a low voice: "This is indeed a bit strange."
Everyone looked at the bronze plate pushed out by Rhine.
Coincidentally, this bronze plate was the bronze plate of the study room they were in.
It was written in Tizarro's ferocious cursive: "I don't need a bedroom, but I want a study room where no one can disturb me."
