Chapter 740 The Mysterious Portal
“Huh? Is there something?”
Suddenly, Veronica on Soshyan’s shoulder made a surprised sound, and then entered with a raging fury. The magic sword in his palm violently blasted into the earth.
The mud ten meters in front of them exploded instantly, and the shock wave lifted up the river embankments on the left and right sides like lifting oil paper, spraying mud, sand and humus everywhere.
Soshiyang was startled for a moment, then frowned and stared at the huge silver device that suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
"What is this?"
His voice was drowned out by the fierce commotion around him, and his body was shaken and staggered by the shock wave, resembling a flat boat drifting around against a hurricane.
"How do you feel?"
When the noise around her subsided, Veronica lowered her voice.
“It seems that I used too much force just now.”
"I'm fine."
As the boiling mud on the left and right gradually cooled down, Veronica slid off Soshyan's shoulders, stood on the hardened river bed ground, and began to study the statue in front of her. Huge device.
It is a huge silver ring. At first glance, it looks like a bunch of entangled vegetation garlands. Various slender decorations are intertwined like common vines in the forest - although its style is rich in natural charm. It is unique and ingenious, but the overall design still fails to get rid of the artificial carvings and is still not up to the level of naturalness.
Veronica could read the strange characters written by several strings of patterns on the silver ring at a glance - no matter how graceful and expressive the brushstrokes and carvings used to depict them were, a sneer still quietly climbed onto the alien shape The corner of the girl's mouth.
“It turned out to be Bejetan’s thing…”
Then she tapped the magic seal on the silver ring with the edge of her sword:
"Why did they come here and build this portal."
"From the Eldar Tribe?"
Soshiyang also carefully studied the magic seal on the ring. The dark blue ceramic knee pads and the silver-white metal collided with each other, making a crisp clanging sound.
“Why do you all want to get in here?”
Suddenly, Veronica bent forward and almost pressed her lips to Soshyan's ear.
"Big guy, did you hear that?"
Soshiyang immediately concentrated. At first he could only hear the suppressed sound of humus and mud surging around him, but after a while, he Then he noticed the second sound that quietly seeped out from inside the silver ring.
“Singing?”
Then he concentrated his mind and listened carefully for the second time.
The first skill that Sevita taught him was how to clear away distracting thoughts and concentrate his mind - after so many years, he had already perfected this skill.
As the five senses gradually become silent, only the singing and the mind remain as companions: this is a melodious hymn, and an aria that hides mysteries under the bright appearance.
But he later realized that the singer was experiencing pain, because pain is the fuel that drives the sound of music.
He stood up and took two steps back, filled with disgust.
Veronica and Soshyan felt the same way. Just as they were about to say something, a heavy loud noise suddenly came from the circular pit around them.
The two men stood up and looked around, holding onto their weapons at the same time.
But then they discovered that there was another thing in the mud, a silver ring.
"Is this?"
Soshiyang stepped forward, picked up the silver ring, looked at it carefully, and then waved for Veronica to come forward.
“Here, look at this.”
Veronica took it and took a look and found that there was a narrow circular groove in the center of the silver ring. After thinking for a moment, she pushed the end of the staff in her hand hard into it. "Although the specific details of the entire ceremony have not yet been verified, I can infer one thing - this portal can still be used."
Then she placed the talisman engraved in the silver. I went through the text and the distribution around the gate in my mind, trying to find any clues that recorded them.
But after a moment of detailed consideration to no avail, the alien girl deliberately turned her thoughts elsewhere: letting her consciousness return to the silent shrine, and looking at the world with her other eyes.
The great prophet of this ability once warned her that she should not use it as a last resort, otherwise it would lead to endless disasters.
But now she had to.
As the control of the body by the conscious mind is gradually stripped away, the more sensitive subconscious mind deep in the soul has an opportunity to show off its skills, and can re-examine the runes in front of it from a previously unimagined angle.
“I have indeed seen a similar arrangement of runes.”
A few minutes later, a strange answer revealed her true identity. Veronica leaned over and squatted down, The tone was very confused:
“But this is impossible?”
"What do you mean?"
Soshyan asked.
“If it is used normally, the energy required is extremely huge, but I don’t see it here——”
Veronica lowered her head again, staring at the talisman in front of her. arts.
There are some things she can't say to Soshyan, she can only explain them in her heart:
"If the Great Prophet already knew this door and the correct sequence to unlock it, why couldn't he just tell me? Do you have to hide the clues in complicated and difficult guesses?"
In fact, this kind of She had also seen the pattern from the Great Prophet, but it was difficult to tell Sosh Yangming about it.
The Elf girl pulled out her thoughts and suspected that maybe there was a mistake in her judgment - but the recognition of the pattern was too high to think of it as a coincidence.
While thinking, she reached out her hand and moved the blade in her hand.
The next moment, streamer debris burst out from between the door leaves, connecting all the locks together, lighting up the outer ring.
At the same time, the originally hazy and distant singing voice became louder and louder, and even Soshyan could really feel its presence.
He looked around doubtfully, trying to find the source of the birth of music.
"It is indeed the same combination..."
Veronica still murmured to herself:
"The lock on the door is gone..."< br>
Then, she held the shining gem between the staffs in her palm and recited a few short incantations in a low voice.
I saw red spiritual flames spurting out, pouring into the body of the staff, lighting up the neat runes surrounding the small silver ring, and integrating with the blue light shining on the door. .
The ground beneath Soshiyang's feet trembled, and the melody and tone of the song became more and more crazy and sharp.
“Go back.”
Veronica raised her hand and pulled out the staff, and went back:
"Don't stand inside the ring."
A few seconds later, under the bright light that burned the eyes, the silver ring finally made a move: the ring cleverly disintegrated into several silver plates, and then reorganized into a normally functioning building. The portal, a loud song roared out from the open door, and a wide and flat staircase continued to extend inward, disappearing into the deep darkness.
The blue light with the same style as the door body snakes along the stairs, like an attractive invitation calling people to enter the door.
“Let’s go, we should reach the core area through here.”
Holding Fentian warily, Soshiyang followed Veronica and walked deeper into the door. Disappeared into the invisible haze in front of me——
