Chapter 2786: Opportunity for Rebirth
Angel and the Black Earl looked at each other. Neither of them spoke, but both understood what the other meant.
The Black Earl hesitated and said, "It is indeed possible that the Frost Moon Alliance is behind the scenes. However, the core members of the Frost Moon Alliance can almost be traced. Most of them are distributed in the South Region, the Abyss, and the front lines of the wasteland conquest in various worlds. Let's not talk about the wizards who stayed in the South Region. The wizards in the Abyss and the front line of the wasteland conquest have wizards from other organizations nearby to prove it for them."
In other words, the Frost Moon Alliance did not send anyone to the Panic Realm at all.
Even if a few hidden players were sent to the Panic Realm, they were definitely not core members.
In this case, there is no need for the Frost Moon Alliance to deliberately conceal the truth about the Panic Realm.
Just like the situation of the Manro plane described by the Black Earl before, once the Sky Mechanical City discovered the opportunity for profit, it found an excuse to send a large number of backbone forces to seize the Manro plane.
At that time, the wizards who stayed in the Sky Mechanical City were basically pure academics.
In contrast, the situation in the Panic Realm.
If the Panic Realm is really worth the Frost Moon Alliance's concealment of its intelligence for the sake of profit, then at least a group of wizards would go to the Panic Realm and secretly smuggle some supplies back.
But the Frost Moon Alliance did not do this. All the core members of the alliance could be found, which means that they did not go to the Panic Realm at all.
There is another point that the Black Earl cannot figure out.
Although the Frost Moon Alliance has spread some "rumors", these rumors alone cannot stop the wizards.
Even though many wizards pursue profits, there are still some wizards who pursue the truth and walk alone. They never stop exploring or interrupting their research.
This tireless pursuit will not be hindered by any unfavorable conditions. Unfavorable conditions can be overcome, but the pursuit will never slacken.
In this case, there will still be many wizards who go to the Panic Realm not for profit, but simply for the pursuit of knowledge.
If the Frost Moon Alliance really conceals and wants to monopolize the resources of the Panic Realm, it will definitely find ways to stop them. But he didn't do so, and even recorded the coordinates of the Panic Realm in the "Record of the Plane Conquest".
This coordinate is undoubtedly correct, otherwise where did Ermi come from?
Therefore, based on the above details, although the Frost Moon Alliance seems to be the spreader of rumors, it is not necessarily the real initiator.
It is possible that there are other unknown forces behind the Frost Moon Alliance, and "they" dominate the direction of public opinion.
It is also possible that the Frost Moon Alliance only sees one side of the Panic Realm, and they don't know that there are other wizard forces in the Panic Realm.
The former is too conspiracy-theory, and if you think about it carefully, there are also inconsistencies. For example, if there are other forces dominating public opinion, why do they allow willing wizards in the South to go to the Panic Realm?
The latter regards the outpost wizards of the Frost Moon Alliance as unprofessional naive people, which is also a bit impossible.
Therefore, even the Black Earl is not sure about the specific situation.
While they were talking, on the other side, Dox's eyes were still fixed on the mural that Kael took out.
His eyes were focused, and his left hand kept stroking his chin, looking like he was thinking deeply about something.
"My Lord, have you found anything?" Kael wanted to put away the mural a long time ago, but Dox was too focused on it, so he couldn't do anything.
Dox: "Since there is a second awakening, I wonder if the so-called butterfly-winged girl in the mural has already awakened for the second time? So, she can control the stupid lion below."
Wai was next to Dox, and when he heard his words, he couldn't help but say: "Even if it is a second awakening, there are flowers and plants on the head, right? Do you see these things on the head of this butterfly-winged person? You actually just want to see her because she looks good... Humph."
Dox didn't reply to Wai, but continued to look at the painting. He always felt that some places seemed to be overlooked by him.
Whether it was this painting or the two memories listed by Laplace before.
Just as Dox was thinking, he suddenly heard Wai and Kael whispering.
Wai: "You really didn't find anything else in that ruins?"
Kael shook his head: "No, there may have been something in that ruins, but judging from the traces of people, it was probably taken away a long time ago."
Wai asked in confusion: "Let's not talk about the ruins outside. Just the secret room you found is very strange. There is only a mural related to the Panic World, and there is nothing else? Even if it is a trace, it's okay. Building a secret room just for a mural is too weird."
Kael thought for a moment: "There are other things in the secret room. I saw it there. Small sacrificial instruments similar to altars should have been extraordinary instruments in the past, but as time passed and there was no energy replenishment, they gradually became ordinary objects. Some instruments even cracked and broke. It's been too long. "
Wai: "It seems to make sense. The things in the Fallen Gold Age are thousands of years away from now. If they were just ordinary extraordinary things, they would have rotted into slag long ago, so it's normal to be empty."
The underground waterway at least has a huge magic energy array, and the spare energy can transfer some extraordinary items, but even so, most of the items in the underground waterway have turned into ashes. What's more, it is an ordinary relic with no energy supply at all.
Thinking of this, Wai was relieved.
"That's right, time! It's time!" Dox suddenly shouted after listening to the conversation between Wai and Kael.
Dox's shout also attracted everyone's attention.
Dox has always been thick-skinned. He didn't feel uncomfortable being watched by everyone. Instead, he became more excited: "I just felt that something seemed to be overlooked. But I can't remember what's wrong."
"Later, I heard their conversation and I thought about it."
"It's time! Did we overlook the time point!"
Dox's excitement did not infect other people around him. Mainly, Wai and Kael didn't understand, while Angel and the Black Earl followed Dox's words and fell into thought.
Angel looked at Laplace behind the prism with a thoughtful look: "Can you tell how long ago the two pictures were?"
Laplace: "The memories reflected by the mirror will not exist for too long in the Sea of Mirrors. When I see the memories, it is most likely that it happened at the moment."
Laplace tapped the prism, and the picture of the girl who had awakened for the second time appeared.
"This picture, according to your human time, is about five thousand years ago. I'm sorry I can't judge the exact number of years... I've seen too many memories."
Angel nodded in understanding.
If it was more than five thousand years ago, it really happened in the Age of Meteoric Gold. Now is the 7378th year of the new calendar, and the Age of Meteoric Gold in the South generally refers to the period from the 2300th year of the new calendar to the 4100th year of the new calendar. At that time, it happened to be the rising period of the wizarding world in the South, and countless geniuses emerged. Although it was not the most prosperous period in the South, it can also leave a strong mark in history, so that period is called the Age of Meteoric Gold.
At this time, Laplace waved his hand gently, and the second picture appeared on the prism. This picture had not appeared before, but Laplace had described it.
It was the picture of "the wizard city rising slowly in the panic world".
From the perspective of the picture, it seemed to be a small puddle formed by rain, reflecting the picture.
The wizard city was very far away from the picture, at the end of the sky, but it could be clearly seen that many wizards were flying in the sky, flying towards the magnificent city.
The whole picture, because of the wizard's behavior of flying towards the city, inexplicably had a sense of solemnity of pilgrimage.
Moreover, because of the low perspective, this "huge" feeling was even more prominent.
This composition is absolutely amazing!
Different things, different angles, see different pictures of the world, this is the meaning of the great ten thousand phenomena.
If Mr. Feng saw this picture, he would probably record it...
However, the picture is beautiful, but from the perspective of intelligence analysis, there is not much focus. The wizard city is too far away, and the specific logo cannot be seen clearly, otherwise it would be possible to determine which wizard organization built the city.
After everyone finished watching this picture, Laplace said: "This picture is hundreds of years earlier than the previous one."
Hundreds of years earlier? It means that the picture of the wizard city may even be before the Golden Age!
Combining this information, Angel understood what Dox meant.
The time point is wrong, and it is quite wrong.
They had overlooked a problem before. The establishment time of the Frost Moon Alliance has only been 1600 years so far.
Although most of the thirteen wizard organizations in the Frost Moon Alliance have experienced the Golden Age, or even existed earlier.
However, they united together to form an alliance, and the time was only 1600 years.
As for the information about the Panic Realm, it began to appear sporadically in the sixth issue of "The Record of the Conquest of the Infinite Plane", which was a thousand years ago.
The most important point is that the information about the Panic Realm was released by the Frost Moon Alliance with the theme of "Conquest of the Wasteland".
In other words, the Frost Moon Alliance believed that the Panic World was an uncultivated world, and they were the first to discover it, so they needed to "explore it".
But in fact, according to the examples listed by Laplace, there were traces of wizards in the Panic World earlier. The reason why the Panic World later became the "exploitation" of the Frost Moon Alliance was probably due to the "generation gap".
After the transmission from the source world was disconnected, the Southern Territory Wizard World had a large period of history that was forced to be blank. That history was whitewashed by others, and finally became a lost era.
Perhaps it was that lost era that completely submerged the Panic World, a world that was already on the edge, in the tide of history.
In the end, it was the Frost Moon Alliance that brought the Panic World back to everyone's attention.
However, at this time, the Panic World may have undergone some changes.
As for what changes, it is unknown now.
"So, the picture depicted on the mirror is true, and the information given by the Frost Moon Alliance is not necessarily false." Dox murmured in a low voice, "Then what is the truth?"
Angel: "What is the truth? Go ask and you will know."
Dox was stunned for a moment. Didn't Laplace say that he didn't know?
Looking at Dox's confused eyes, Angel didn't know what to say. If he is stupid, he can bring new ideas when everyone is confused; if he is smart, the new ideas are just opened up and blocked by him again.
A typical wizard with a flash of inspiration...well, it's really just a "flash".
"Your Excellency means to ask those old wizards who have lived for a long time!" Wai glared at Dox unhappily, then looked at Angel, eager to be agreed.
Angel nodded: "Wai is right, since the memory on the mirror is from the Golden Age. Then, the extraordinary life that came from the Golden Age should know something."
And this kind of "old monster" who survived the Golden Age, the one closest to everyone at present is
The Wise Overlord.
This is also the first thing everyone thought of after hearing Angel's explanation.
However, other figures emerged in Angel's mind.
The three ancestral spirits of the Savage Cave have all lived for more than ten thousand years. Shu Lao must know, but Shu Lao is usually invisible. Lord Mirror is in deep sleep, so he can ask the tree spirit.
In addition to the tree spirit, Xixia should also be able to ask.
However, what Angel hopes more is to ask... the Inspector.
The Inspector himself came from the Source World and was a well-informed legendary wizard. He must know some inside information.
However, the Inspector had never entered the Dream Wilderness, and it was unknown whether he was dealing with the aftermath of the Devil's Sea, or was he delayed by other things?
...
Although everyone was curious about the truth of the Panic Realm, Laplace had already told everything he knew, so it could only stop here for the time being.
Angel: "According to what you said in your gift, Ermi... um, the demon in my shadow, is the demon who is trying to awaken again?"
"Can he awaken again? How can he awaken again?"
Laplace: "You have to ask him yourself."
Ask Ermi? Angel couldn't help but frown.
Laplace meant that Ermi had begun to have self-awareness?
Even though Angel occasionally felt that Ermi's behavior was a bit strange, he did not doubt that he had regained consciousness because the Distortion Seed was still functioning normally.
Besides, even if he really regained consciousness, with the Distortion Seed, could he regain a clear consciousness? Isn't he even more crazy and bloodthirsty than the awakened demon before?
Perhaps seeing the doubts in Angel's heart, Laplace said: "What I saw was the reflection of his heart. This reflection is not necessarily subjective consciousness, but may also be the cry of the subconscious."
"According to his own inner reflection, he longs for a second awakening and is close to the edge of a second awakening. As for how to awaken, what I saw in the reflection of my heart... is what I just said."
Only in the chaotic embers can we see a faint chance of rebirth.
