Chapter 085 The Book of Dikla

For a moment, Gawain seemed to have fallen into a hot spring.

It feels like every cell in the body is cheering and jumping, and an indescribable sense of relief spreads throughout the body like electricity, if not for the [Mechanical Mind] that is still turned on.

He almost ascended on the spot.

"No wonder Lilith was so out of control back then."

Gawain suddenly realized that his eyes were no longer uncomfortable and his vision returned to normal. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and looked around, and at a glance he saw the colorful crystal cup placed under the cross.

Then he saw an open book on the stone platform next to him.

He stretched out his hand and the crystal cup was easily picked up by [Mage's Hand] and floated in front of him. Gawain looked at it carefully and tried to put a trace of magic power into it, and received feedback easily.

This crystal cup is just a simple rune creation, but what is surprising is that there are 21572 rune structures with [rigidity] effects neatly arranged inside.

Such a terrifying arrangement density, but still being engraved in a palm-sized crystal cup, is simply crazy.

I'm afraid even many official wizards can't do it.

"Something strange."

Gawain reached out and picked up the crystal cup. It felt extremely hard. He tilted the cup and found that the bottom of the cup seemed a little wet. The crystal cup itself was pure white, and the various colors were produced by this moisture.

He sniffed, and a cool feeling poured into his mind, and his mental energy jumped, as if boiling.

More active than ever.

Gao Wen's heart was like a mirror, but his eyes were confused, and a series of vague voices began to echo in his ears:

"You are the Lord of the Earthsea..."

"He is the king of sea beasts..."

"It is the protector of fish people and the beacon of all sea people..."

"O huge, noble, majestic, benevolent God of sea beasts, humble and devout believers are here to sacrifice to you and offer you a meager gift of blood..."

"Great God of Sea Beasts, please grant me a good harvest~~"

"Please give me the catch~~"

"Please reward me with food~~"

"Please bless my health~~"

"Please give me wealth~~"

"Please cure my disease and bring me a beautiful and virtuous wife~~"

Gawain's eyes returned to clarity. Even in the [Mechanical Mind] state, he was still shocked. He looked in disbelief at the figure nailed on the cross and covered by his robe, and then at the crystal cup in his hand, his thoughts swirling:

"Could this be the liquid of faith?"

"Could it be that the Tower of Silence's experiment on Ares was successful? It deprived him of the power of faith and materialized it, creating a creation that continuously transformed the fluid of faith?"

"Maybe it's really possible."

"No wonder the Dikla wizard was so seriously polluted but still managed to survive. He must have drank the transformed fluid of faith through the sacrificial ceremony to Ares."

Gawain remembered that before time travel, a beta tester once revealed something in the forum, saying that the liquid of faith of the gods was a snake oil that could be used in all aspects.

But be extremely careful when using it on the wizard himself.

Because it is originally a gathering of countless people's prayers, it is contaminated with various extreme emotions, which can invisibly affect the user's character and change their temperament. In severe cases, it may even be contaminated.

Cause unpredictable consequences.

Even so, it does not mean that the Liquid of Faith has no value. On the contrary, it is a treasure that countless people dream of, and any bit of it will be snapped up.

"It's a pity that it's all used up. I don't know if I can continue to transform it?"

Gawain put the crystal cup back where it was, intending to observe it for a while. If it could continue to transform the liquid of faith, he would then consider its specific use.

He walked towards the open book and was about to lean over to observe.

"brush!"

But the book suddenly closed on its own and shrunk to the size of a matchbox, revealing a gray-white cover with a string of Pandora's universal words written on it:

"The Book of Dikla!"

In addition, there is a small and exquisite metal chain hanging on the top of the book.

"Can you move on your own?"

"Can it get smaller?"

Gawain had a strange look on his face. This was the first time he encountered such a magical scene. He knew that this must be something that only formal wizards can touch, and it must be extremely precious.

He carefully moved it with his wizard's hand, but there was no response from the [Book of Dikla].

"It's really weird."

Gawain reached out and picked up the [Book of Dikla], flipped through it, but could not turn it. It felt like all the pages were stuck together, like a whole, which could not be opened by force.

He tried to channel the magic power in, but he encountered a strong resistance, which was even three points more stubborn than the original [Phantom Weapon Wand].

It cannot be erased in a short time.

Gawain was not in a hurry, and directly tied the [Book of Dikla] to his wrist, and turned around twice more. Seeing that he found nothing else, he turned back to the [Wall of Sighs].

“Silence speaks louder than a thousand words!”

"Hey~~~"

As the password was shouted, the Wall of Sighs let out a faint sigh, as if it was disappointed that it could not swallow Gawain, and then the black wall cracked from the middle, forming an arched portal.

Gawain didn't waste any more time and turned into a crow and passed through, quickly flying through the more than 500-meter-long [Gnawing Stone Slab] passage and landing on the ground amid a cloud of broken feathers.

He took the crocodile leather case from the Shadow Snake, opened it, took out a new robe and put it on, waving his hand:

"I've been delayed for a long time. Come with me to go out and have a look."

"Hiss~~"

"Quack~~"

Then Gawain led the Shadow Snake and Crow No. 23 out together.

When passing the third-floor potion garden, he stopped, stuffed a magic stone into the center of the magic circle, and adjusted the magic circle to the minimum operation according to the record in the "Magic Potion Magic Array Maintenance and Operation Manual".

Only then was he satisfied.

Then he walked through the bronze door and walked out of the Tower of Silence.

"Mr. Gawain."

Lilith, who had been waiting for a long time under the tower, came up quickly. Gawain was very satisfied with Lilith's performance. Without his explicit prohibition, she could still restrain the desire to enter the Tower of Silence.

This shows that Lilith is not a stupid and brainless woman. At least she knows the hierarchy and who should be the master.

Gawain nodded and asked:

"How is it going?"

"It's okay at the Rocky Cliff. I counted and there are a total of 43 people, including halflings, orcs and other races. Among them, only a dozen halflings want to continue to stay on Ghost Rain Island. The others want to go to the East Continent. In addition, the halfling Cole wants to see you and says he has something important to tell you."

"Important things..."

Gawain pondered for a moment and nodded:

"Then let's go."

"Okay!"

Lilith led the way, walking step by step on the uneven solidified magma. After walking for a while, she couldn't help but look back:

"Mr. Gawain plans to stay on Ghost Rain Island?"

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Gawain shook his head. The wizard Dikla was completely out of control, and the fishmen Dikla were killed and injured. Now he has actually occupied Ghost Rain Island, but it doesn't mean he can be safe and worry-free here, because two groups of people from the [Church of Death] have died on the island one after another, and they will definitely not give up.

Who knows, the third group is on the way.

Therefore, even if he is the master of Ghost Rain Island, he has no ability to defend it.

But!

Whether it is the Magic Potion Garden.

Or the Liquid of Faith.

These are not what Gawain is willing to give up. These resources are too precious. For a wizard apprentice who grew up in a wild way, the temptation is too great.

In any case, he can't let go.

In this way, Gawain has two ways to go.

One is to take the ghost ship to the East Continent according to the original plan, and come back after the storm. Anyway, Ghost Rain Island is here and can't run away.

The Tower of Silence is even less likely to move.

The second is simpler, that is, hiding in the dark room behind the Wall of Sighs, and when the people of the Church of Death leave, he will still be the owner of Ghost Rain Island after he comes out.

Gawain has actually been considering how to choose.

Comparatively speaking, he prefers the first way. Now that he has got all the benefits he should get, the rest cannot be moved or moved, and there is no need to hide in the dark room and take risks in vain.

After all, the Church of Death is not a small role.

[Bronze Gate], [Gnawing Slate] and [Wall of Sighs], these three obstacles may not be able to stop it.
