Chapter 205 1 Door?

The long years of hanging in the sky as a surveillance satellite did not change Gawain's personality essence, but it brought him a special perspective on all things in the world - when necessary, he could approach with a near-bystander attitude. Analyze the changes in this world, and summarize some possible laws from the changes that last thousands of years and tens of thousands of years, and these laws are important for species living on the earth (including those elves that can live for thousands of years). That said, it's hard to summarize.

It is precisely because he has seen the ups and downs of civilization on the surface of the earth many times that Gawain can speculate that the magic tide has occurred more than once - even if he did not capture any of them, it is enough to guess what happened in the middle from the monitoring images before and after.

In another speculation by Gawain, it is believed that the scale of the magic tide should be uncertain.

A large-scale magic tide may lead to the reshaping of the civilization of the entire planet, and a small-scale magic tide - the disaster of the destruction of Gondor 700 years ago is probably just a "small magic tide".

Although it destroyed the most powerful Empire of Gondor in human history, its scope was only in the central area of ​​​​the Great 6. If nothing else, the Silver Empire of the Elf and the Dwarf Kingdom in the west were not affected at all.

Or... that seven hundred years ago was not an official wave at all, but just some kind of "prelude"?

Various guesses and associations emerged in Gawain's mind involuntarily, many of which were actually made up by himself out of thin air, while Amber next to Gawain watched Gawain motionless for a long time, and finally couldn't help poking. Poke his arm: "Hey, what do you think?"

"Just thought of one thing," Gawain woke up and asked casually, "You said, if one day all the resources familiar to human beings on the earth are changed, such as the properties of various magic materials What happened?"

Amber was stunned for a moment: "How come you have such a big jump in your thinking..."

Gawain knocked on Amber's head: "Just say what will happen."

"Then everyone must be in a mess," Amber replied casually, "Especially the mages,

I can't find any spellcasting materials all at once, and many spellcasting materials have to be re-summated..."

Hearing Amber's answer, Gawain sighed softly after a long silence: "The civilization of mortals is really fragile...isn't it?"

Amber's ears trembled: "It's really weird that you talk."

Gawain stood up and turned to look at Hom and other members of the expedition who were waiting beside him. These people did not dare to come forward to disturb the lord while he was thinking. At this time, when he saw Gawain getting up, they got closer. .

"This ore needs a name," Gawain nodded slightly to Holm, "I named it Holm Rough Stone."

"Big... lord?" Hom, who was a serf not long ago, was taken aback when he heard Gawain's words, and he repeated it in disbelief with wide eyes, "Hom rough stone? I don't fit my status! How can I have this honor..."

"In exploring the unknown, the presenter will always be great, and there is no need to refuse," Gao Wen waved his hand, "in the future, we may discover more valuable things in this land, and naming the presenter after the presenter will be a kind of An easy way to do it - and a great way to motivate explorers."

"Yes...Thank you!" Holm straightened up suddenly. For the first time in so many years, his waist, which had been hunched in advance due to heavy labor, was straightened again, which even made his spine crack. Even his entire back was in pain, but he still tried his best to straighten his body, "I...I..."

This simple-minded civilian who can even read and write at the level of literacy could not find the right words to describe his mood, and Gao Wen didn't care about it, he just waved his hand: "Everyone in the expedition team With credit, I will let Hetty record it for you and convert it into a reward according to the contribution law."

Then he looked in the direction of the mountain road - just now, he saw a combat soldier running over, and the other party was standing on the mountain road, waiting for him.

"What's the matter?" Gawain came to the soldier and asked.

"Sir, I have brought the report from the ruins," the soldier stood up straight and saluted to report, "Knight Byron has found a strange magic device and a hall full of runes in the lower area of ​​the ruins, I hope you can go there in person. take a look."

A new area has appeared in the depths of the ruins? !

Gao Wen frowned, and immediately beckoned to Amber: "Come with me."

The two walked up the mountain road under the leadership of the soldiers. After a long journey, they finally reached the deepest part of the ancient facility.

"It's really big in here..." Looking at the tall corridors around and the dim magic spar lamps on both sides of the corridor, Amber couldn't help sighing, "It takes so long to walk in on a straight road..."

"This is the result of Knight Byron's clearing the way." Gawain nodded, noting that the magic spar lamps in the corridors on both sides were newly installed, considering the cost and the output power of the portable magic net unit, The distance between those magic spar is very far, so the overall lighting in the corridor is very dim, but compared to the original completely dark ruins environment, the corridor that has been restored to lighting is still much stronger than before.

In that rotunda, Gawain saw the middle-aged knight who had not seen him for a long time.

The many days of exploration of the ruins did not make the knight look haggard and tired. His state was even surprisingly good. It seemed that he had rediscovered the feeling of being a mercenary in the process. Byron's face looked bright. As soon as he saw Gawain, he greeted him: "Sir, you should look at this! I bet the two sets of words on the door are describing the function of this room - but we didn't understand what it meant after studying for a long time. ."

Gawain looked in the direction of Byron's finger and saw that there was a metal plate with no signs of rust inlaid on both sides of the inner door of the entrance of the rotunda. The metal plate was engraved with neat ancient characters using a technique similar to laser etching. .

"The writing on the left is to pay attention to safety and beware of accidents, and the writing on the right is that people leave the scene and lock the door - what's wrong?"

Byron: "..."

On the spot, Gawain saw several soldiers behind Byron blushing. If it weren't for the military discipline, they would have had the heart to roll on the ground.

"Don't bother to study things that are not your own expertise in the future," Gao Wen sighed, and patted the middle-aged and old fritters knight on the shoulder, "Even Heidi can't fully recognize these ancient words, so what are you doing for fun."

Byron broke out in a cold sweat. He turned around embarrassedly and pointed to the center of the rotunda: "...Sir, what you said is, you should come and see this..."

Gawain looked towards the center of the hall—in fact, from the moment he entered the door, he had already noticed that wonderful thing that was overwhelming.

It was a ring mounted vertically in the ground, with about a third of the structure buried deep in the ground. The inner diameter of the ring is about four meters, and on the ring, you can see dense magic patterns and symbols, rare metals and magic crystals are inlaid on the magic nodes, which shows that it should be some kind of magic. Power-hungry device.

On the ground around the ring, you can see the same complex and huge magic symbol system, as well as several metal devices fixed on the ground and connected with the magic patterns on the surface, which look like a console.

"This is... some kind of door?" Gawain touched his chin, the shape of the ring made him think of something similar to a portal, but he was skeptical about the "portal" judgment - even if In the heyday of the Gondor Empire, long-distance teleportation magic was still a theoretical product. This world did not have such convenient space teleportation magic. If there were mature teleportation portals in the age of Gondor sparks a thousand years ago, it is impossible to do all of them. Not passed down.

It's more likely to be a "magic door" for small-scale spatial transformation, used to link different spaces at the same coordinates, a technology that was quite mature in the Gondor era.

"We initially suspected that this thing was a stone, but in fact it was some kind of metal, but no one knew its material," Knight Byron continued to report, "In addition, we also found several blocked objects on this floor. The rooms, there are some ingots of the same material as the ring stacked in those rooms, it seems that the people here planned to build more rings or expand it - but then they evacuated, and these works were put on hold ."

"Unknown metal material..." Gao Wen said to himself, "If it's not ancient alloys, then it can only be the magic tide that caused them to change their properties. If the reason is the latter, then it will be troublesome to study. ."

Knight Byron didn't hear clearly: "Sir, what did you say?"

"No, it's nothing," Gawain waved his hand, at the same time out of the corner of his eye he noticed that Amber had run to the side of the ring at some point, and was poking at the purple purple on the surface of the ring with her baby dagger. The black crystal, he suddenly called out, "Hey! What are you doing! This thing can't..."

"Don't worry, I'm not stealing!" Amber immediately glared at Gawain, and loudly cleared away the suspicion of his occupational disease, "I just feel that the power fluctuations left by this crystal are a little... familiar."

"Are you familiar?" Gawain was taken aback, "Have you seen this kind of crystal?"

Amber looked at the crystals embedded in the ring like an expert and scholar, and touched his smooth chin with his free left hand: "Based on my years of experience in committing crimes..."

Gawain: "...what?"

"Cough cough, work experience, work experience," Amber herself also reacted, and quickly changed her tune, but unfortunately everyone at the scene had heard it, so she continued to speak cheekily, "According to my experience, this crystal should be Rare shadow affinity crystal - the most expensive of all elemental crystals. And to be honest, the purity is also scary, and shadow crystals of such high purity are now rare."

"Shadow?" Gawain blinked. He knew the existence of elemental crystals. This special magic crystal is formed by the long-term erosion and transformation of ordinary magic crystals in an environment with high element concentration. It is even rarer to maintain a shadow environment for a long time and the concentration reaches the standard. Therefore, the elemental crystals with shadow tendencies are the most expensive and rare. Although Gawain Cecil was known as a polymath, his main skills are in herbalism, In terms of survival in the wilderness, territory construction, and monster slashing, there is not much research on magic crystals, but Amber, as a founder of the country, dares to pry at the grave, and has a comparison between shadow affinity and madness, it is not surprising that she has seen this kind of crystal .

"Could it be related to the Shadow Realm?" Gawain asked guessing.

Amber patted his chest: "Then I'll go in and see the situation first!"

"Wait a minute," Gawain grabbed her arm before she entered the Shadow Realm, "Come in with me."

Amber was stunned for a while, suddenly remembering the terrifying experience of facing the flesh and blood of the gods when he entered the Shadow Realm in the Ruins Lab last time, and suddenly a layer of cold sweat broke out, and quickly grabbed Gawain's arm: "Then you have to walk ahead later. what!"

Gawain glanced at the half-elf who suddenly got up, and waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go."

Amber took a deep breath, calmed down, and then activated his shadow affinity talent.

The familiar feeling of trance struck again, and Gawain felt that the scene in front of him began to shake, but just as he was about to see the scene of the Shadow Realm, Amber beside him suddenly made a "Oops", and then the two of them joined together. "falls out" of the critical state.

Amber dazedly rubbed his head, and it took a long while to react: "It seems... was ejected?"
