Chapter 656 An ancient flower that is not a plant!
On the surface of the Abyss River, the black water is churning, devil fish are leaping, and countless abyss worms are stirring under the surface of the river. The ecology inside the huge Abyss River is already more complex and complete than the ecology of many planes.
It's just that the river of the abyss is extremely dangerous. Without the use of special equipment, even Locke at this moment would not dare to go deep into it, for fear of entering the abyss reincarnation system, which would be doomed.
On the ferry, Locke and Witch Charlie stood on it and handed the last two gold coins of the underworld to the underworld ferryman.
The ferryman of the underworld rowed the famous oar and sent the two of them to the direction of the Ashes Esoteric Academy.
Witch Charlie thought: "You have analyzed a lot with me along the way. If this is the case, then I think everything about Princess Loom has been modified by the agents of the Tower of the Black Sun. Then, at a certain era, a wizard witnessed this scene, and then in the princess's empty coffin Write a line of your name on it. "
"Wizard Maxwell, I don't know who this is. It can only be said that wizard civilization has a long history, and each era of wizard civilization will have its own outstanding talents." Witch Charlie added. "Of course. You and I are just a small part of the current wizarding world. Today's wizarding civilization has reached unprecedented prosperity."
"Even junior brother, you and I are just ordinary members in this era."
Witch Charlie said: "But since everything about the princess has been modified, how much of the content in the tomb is false and how much is true?"
shall should be false, but all the content related to the princess, except for the specific existence of this person, and part of the content related to King Otto are all false.” Mingfa. Use King Otto's part to prove the authenticity of the princess's experience. Moreover, the Tower of the Black Sun should have manipulated the princess's echo... The echo that erupted in the city center was probably not the echo of the princess, but the echo of King Otto. "
"It should not be a complete echo, but more like a fragment of the echo."
"This can explain why when we entered the space of the historical landmark curse, the main subject was King Otto, and the main perspective was also King Otto."
Locke thought: "One more thing, is the princess... really a one-ring witch?"
Witch Charlie's pupils suddenly narrowed.
Locke said: "Is the princess really dead? If the messenger from the Tower of the Black Sun enters the tomb and does not find the princess's body, what will he do?"
Witch Charlie thought: "Then he will definitely do it. Stay in the world and try to find the princess. He will definitely leave traces. Maybe at this moment, archaeologists have found the traces he left. "As long as we can find relevant traces, we can support this view."
"But this part of what you said is just a guess so far."
Locke nodded. "It's really just a guess."
Locke said: "Now I finally understand why it is written in my Witch King's Grimoire - 'The first point of archeology is to learn to ask questions!'"
"Only by learning how to ask questions can we conduct archeology better."
Witch Charlie nodded. "Junior Brother Locke, I hope you don't tell your two dark wizard friends about this part of Princess Loom's speculation."
Locke looked at Witch Charlie strangely.
Witch Charlie said: "That's what I think. First of all, the main purpose of the four of us exploring this ruins together is actually to find the historical truth of the unknown king, the reason why he was removed, and to discover the mortal era."
"Then our entire plan has been perfectly realized."
First of all, the evidence is incomplete, and secondly, this is additional content, which the two of us discovered independently. "
"There is no need to share it with the two dark wizards."
"Secondly, the princess is very relevant, as you said. The seal of the expulsion curse on the princess is still there. So can we reveal the information about her?"
Locke glanced at Witch Charlie, then closed his eyes. "In the space of the Historical Boundary Monument Curse, my super-intuitive ability has become more and more obvious."
"Let me use my intuition to feel what will happen if we tell this part of the princess's news..."
The next moment, Locke opened his eyes. "We will die. Die in the cracks of fate."
"I can foresee that if we really reveal this news, our luck will become very bad. Misfortune will befall us. Of course, it actually affects us now. It's just that the magic pressure of you and me has reached 9999, and our fate is heavy. It cannot be easily affected by such a small curse."
"But if we really spread the news about the princess." Locke said bitterly: "That will be the cause of archaeological wizards all over the world, and the two of us will be dedicated to archaeological wizards." Scientific research itself is full of taboos, and it is different from other research. There are many rules. "
"Curses from ancient times are not uncommon. I have no fewer than seven kinds at the moment."
"So, I don't care much about this. This is just a necessary price to pay for exploring the ancient past."
Locke nodded slightly and put the Angel's Tears Bracelet on his hand. At that moment, his super-intuitive ability, which gradually emerged, was immediately blocked. Before that, Locke could feel that the faint misfortune wrapped around him was also blocked by this two-ring magic weapon.
Witch Charlie looked at Locke and smiled: "Locke, this time it is thanks to your super-intuitive ability that you noticed the logical paradox. This allowed us to discover the hidden truth."
"Your super-intuitive ability is really getting stronger and stronger."
Locke looked up at Witch Charlie. In fact, he wanted to say that his super-intuitive ability has just awakened and is still very weak at the moment.
The reason why I didn’t discover much was that I realized that the princess appeared too rarely in the space within the historical boundary monument spell, and that weird feeling always lingered in my heart.
But Witch Charlie seemed to think that it was mainly her super-intuition that had the effect. Locke thought about it and thought that this might be a good idea.
There is no need to emphasize how smart you are.
Hitch Charlie said: "I heard the teacher say that if the super-intuitive ability is used too much, the user will not be able to distinguish between reality and prophecy? Junior brother, do you really have this tendency? I am not a prophet, so I am really curious."
h "I don't know, what is that feeling?"
Locke looked at Witch Charlie's curious eyes, pursed his lips and said, "Senior sister, I don't know what that feels like."
It was mainly because he had just acquired super-intuitive abilities and had basically not experienced the side effects of the prophet.
And because Witch Ekaterina gave herself the Angel Tears Magic Weapon in advance, this problem was prevented in advance.
As long as super-intuitive abilities are not used frequently, this problem will not occur.
This kind of problem will only occur when you use it day and night.
That will cause you to be unable to distinguish between prophecy and reality.
Witch Charlie quickly maneuvered the ferry, sailing on the surface of the River of the Abyss, and in the process of returning to the Ashes Secret Cult, she met the ships of Warwick and McKinley wizards again.
At this time, the four people looked at each other.
The four of them were all a little embarrassed at the moment. No one's wizard robe was clean, but after the four of them looked at each other, they all laughed.
Wizard Warwick smiled and said: "Thank you three for helping me explore the abyss ruins. Currently, the four of us each have some key data in our hands. I have the early location of the abyss ruins in my hands, and a preliminary judgment on the age of the abyss ruins and who its owner is. Key data. "
"Wizard McKinley is an expert in judging the strata and drifting trajectories of the River of Abyss. Only those of us who have studied the River of Abyss for a long time and have a dock at the River of Abyss are qualified to study and learn this."
"Both of them have their own strengths. Moreover, both of them have been in the historical monument space longer than we have. How about we write a big paper on the exploration of the ruins together, and then publish the articles separately and participate in the awards together?"
Wizard McKinley said weakly: "Okay."
"I can complicate the drifting track of the abyss river in that city. I have collected key data before leaving."
Locke nodded and said, "Of course. I saw how the mortal era ended, and learned many secrets of King Otto. I can be responsible for this section."
"Also, there are many ancient plants in that city, and I can write that part of the history of ancient plants."
“Use ancient plant history to support the chronological history of that city, and plant seeds and the products of plant dehydration and carbonization can reflect the climate and environmental changes of that era, as well as some small details of the era.” Doctrine."
Wizard Warwick smiled and said: "That's great. It seems we have reached an agreement. Celebrate our happy cooperation. As a result, the archeology award will most likely fall into our hands this year. Maybe, with this, Wizard McKinley and I can become the deputy dean of the Ashes Secret Cult."
Witch Charlie's eyes were filled with contempt. "The vice-president of the Dark Wizard Academy? What's the point of working hard for something like this?"
Warwick knew that Witch Charlie looked down on dark wizards, so in order not to offend her, he just laughed a few times.
Locke opened the astral ring and checked his harvest. He could not use the equipment of the Transfiguration School, but he could have time to read the information, and the magic weapons could be packaged and sold.
Of course, before selling, you can talk to your co-mentor, just in case Jinmianshan is interested.
After all, it is of great research value.
But to me, the most valuable thing is the set of ancient magic plant seeds.
At the same time, Locke put a gelatinous water ball in his hand and looked at the colorful waterball-like object in his hand strangely.
He picked up the instructions for making a special magic creature skin and saw that it read: "Resin ball, a substance extracted from ancient things in the earth." It is high-quality magic planting soil. Put the seeds into it and you can grow magic plants. It is moderately toxic and should not be touched by mortals or non-first-class wizard apprentices.
It can efficiently save water during planting. After absorbing water, it will form a gel and slowly release water. It can improve the soil, reduce the frequency of fertilization, withstand floods, increase the vitality of seeds, increase the probability of seedling emergence, and enhance plant strength. 』
Can increase plant fertility. 』
Locke’s pupils suddenly narrowed.
At this time, Witch Charlie and two dark wizards were already discussing how to write a big article, who would write the review, and who would be responsible for specific sections.
Whose manuscript should I submit?
The four of them agreed that they all share the same name, but they don’t know who to contact for communication. This still needs to be discussed.
It would be too easy for him to find someone who has nothing to do with him.
If the name of one of the four of them, or several of them, is used, there may be some seniority discrimination issues.
Locke on the side took out an earthen pot.
He looked at the colorful dove egg-sized resin balls placed in the earthen jar. He hesitated, then took out another one and put it under his nose and smelled it.
"It is definitely not a natural resin secreted by some kind of tree magic plant. This is a magic medicine extract of a certain substance."
"But since it is called resin, it is most likely related to tree magic plants."
h "Furthermore, archaeological magic can unearth the secrets hidden in the finished product. Although the specific craftsmanship and processing methods and principles cannot be known, the approximate source can be traced."
"If the princess has something to tell me, then it is possible that she can tell me something by leaving something to me. This weird thing of unknown origin, which is clearly said to come from the bottom of the earth, may be this kind of thing."
"The princess knows that she has something to tell me. Anything she leaves behind will be enveloped by the curse of expulsion, and it may not be able to stay. And the Tower of the Black Sun will continue to check what she leaves behind for a long time. So what she left behind is not the plain text, but the material. She bets on the completion of the archeology of the ancestor."
“So by tracing the origin of this thing, we may be able to learn something.” Locke thought for a moment. "And the characteristics of this thing itself look very good. If I can master the method of mass production, it will be very useful to me, especially the research of Group 2."
Locke thought of removing the curse. It would be best for him to return to Golden Crown Mountain and explore the source of this thing.
If we were in Jinmian Mountain, even if the curse of expulsion was triggered and the sky fell, there would still be tall people holding up.
Before doing it yourself, you can first ask Witch Ekaterina for her opinion.
After all, the matter is serious, and this kind of thing cannot be done casually.
In case of serious losses, you still have to pay for it yourself.
Locke took out the seeds of the ancient flower from the astral ring, and then looked at the seeds. "This is the seed of that kind of flower." He snapped his fingers, and suddenly a historical projection was projected on the deck of the ferry. It was the historical projection of an ancient flower.
Locke put on the concentration single lens. "I didn't find it in the Historical Boundary Monument Curse before, but now that I've settled down, I found out that this thing just looks like a magic plant. But... is this really a magic plant?"
“Why do I feel that this is a flower that looks like a magic plant...a high-density polymer? A plastic flower? The tactile feel of this plant is wrong. There is also something strange about the spiritual subtleties. Although the details of this plant and the flower are lifelike, just like real plants, even if the microstructure is the same, everything is too smooth, and there is no material interaction like a real plant. "This is just a plastic flower."
Locke exclaimed: "So the plant that destroyed King Otto's royal court was actually an artificial flower from the Tower of the Black Sun?"
This exploration of the abyss ruins had a huge impact on him.
Botanical wizards generally study modern magic plants. And he simply traveled to the past, touched on the mysteries and conspiracies in history, and directly studied such a plastic flower from the past...
"This can be regarded as the advantage of interdisciplinarity."
Locke touched his chin and said: "But why is it a plastic flower?"
