Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 274 Primal Runes

Su Lun looked at the relief, and identified that it was no longer the words [ordinary stone relief] displayed in the previous illusion, and there was a series of detailed explanations.

【Relief Containing Special Laws】

Detailed Explanation: The relief carved by the ancient dwarf master craftsman; you saw some *** runes; if your understanding is high enough, you may be able to observe some other things;

"Another piece of information beyond cognition?"

Su Lun's eyes froze.

He is not unfamiliar with this situation, and it also happened when he identified the fallen angel of the god rank.

However, that was once.

His current amount of knowledge is already astonishing. There are things in this world beyond his knowledge, but it must be difficult to come across.

I didn't expect to meet it again now!

"What kind of advanced rune language is this?"

Seeing this, Su Lun stopped the thought of leaving.

He looked at the hanging man on the relief and saw the things falling from the tree, and then he realized that it was really some kind of rune language, and the grade was ridiculously high.

If it was identified as an ordinary treasure, he might not even have a heartbeat.

But this string of "***" really aroused his curiosity.

But when he approached the stone sculpture and looked carefully for a while, Su Lun didn't see anything special about the stone sculpture.

Touched a bit, same thing.

"You need to have a high enough understanding to see it?"

Su Lun looked at the identified method, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

There are two things in him that can increase understanding.

One is the [Poetry Immortal Honey Wine] of the Dalu tribe, which can temporarily increase one's understanding. However, this savvy is more about the inspiration of poetry creation, the higher the drunkenness, the higher the savvy.

In such a dangerous cursed space, he didn't dare to get drunk.

And the other one is the [Mind Flayer's Egg] obtained before, which can temporarily increase one's comprehension after being identified and eaten.

High protein, non-toxic.

Su Lun felt as if the choice was already clear.

He took out a translucent egg the size of a fist, and raised his eyebrows slightly, implying that he regarded it as an egg.

He put it in his mouth.

I can't swallow it in one mouthful, so I have to chew a few mouthfuls.

I thought.

Huh, it seems to taste pretty good?

It's probably like caviar, and it's mouthful.

Su Lun felt a little weird in his heart. He ate carrion meat before, and now he ate mind flayer eggs. There are always strange things, and it feels like he is getting farther and farther on the road of eating Master Bobei?

However, the effect is also immediate.

After eating a mind flayer egg, the world in his eyes suddenly became clear.

It was a very wonderful experience that seemed to be able to see the essence of the world.

Su Lun focused his eyes on the relief, and he saw some halos like ripples, as if there were some shadows shaking.

He tried to concentrate, trying to see clearly, but after all, he was a little short.

"Savvy enough?"

Su Lun thought of the reason.

Unfortunately, you can only eat one mind flayer egg, and it won't stack.

Thinking about it, he could only take a sip of Shixian honey wine.

I also muttered in my heart, I hope it's not the cephalosporin paired with wine that caused poisoning or something.

He didn't drink much, and Su Lun's expression immediately became excited as soon as he felt slightly drunk.

Because in front of his eyes, a hazy picture like a slide projection appeared.

As if time passed by, he saw the whole process of completing the relief carving.

Some dwarf craftsmen about one meter tall carved a huge stone into the current form, and moved this temple from a distant place. Then the light and shadow flowed, and countless giants came and went in front of the stone sculpture.

It is like a picture accelerated ten thousand times, fleeting in an instant.

Then, it slowed down.

Su Lun saw an old human man in a white robe standing in front of the stone sculpture, and stretched out his hand to gesture in front of the relief of the Hanged Man.

Looking again, the light and shadow collapsed.

"What's happening here?"

Su Lun looked puzzled.

That's it?

I seemed to see something, but I didn't seem to see it at all.

The comprehension of the temporary increase is rapidly declining, and the picture in Su Lun's eyes is becoming more and more blurred.

Relief, also known as ordinary relief.

Just when he thought he wasted a Mind Flayer egg, Su Lun suddenly thought of something, "Do we have to learn to try to trigger certain conditions?"

He recalled the picture he saw before, moved his position, and imitated the movement of the old man's fingers, and drew a mysterious symbol connected end to end on the stone carving.

No response the first time.

Su Lun condensed the dark spiritual power between his fingers again.

This time, the symbol was drawn out, as if it had triggered some special prohibition, and when I looked again, one of the stone-carved runes on the relief shone brightly.

"Huh?"

Su Lun was very surprised to see that it was an ordinary stone that turned into an object.

[Imitation of the original rune]

Detailed explanation:? ? ?

Just a name, and then a string of question marks.

When Su Lun saw this, instead of frowning, he was overjoyed.

The words "primary runes" are like thunder to rune masters!

The essence of the runes is the "magic pattern", which is to express the abstract concepts of the laws of each department with intuitive and concrete patterns. Through some special combinations and arrangements, various magical effects are created.

It is recorded in ancient alchemy classics that when the original creator created the world, the chaotic laws of the world had not yet completely collapsed and transformed into all things. The chaotic laws condensed into some symbols, which are "primordial runes".

This is recognized by alchemists as the origin of runes.

In various myths and legends, that kind of rune has appeared frequently.

This is the dream of countless rune masters.

Legend has it that if you can glimpse the true face of the "distant rune", you can understand the ultimate mystery of the rune.

Therefore, Su Lun was overjoyed seeing that the pupil of omniscience could identify the name.

Even if it was an imitation, it made him feel like he picked up a big treasure!

Although I can't understand it, the "???" directly indicates that this is definitely a top-level item.

Seeing this, Su Lun felt that almost losing his life just now was worth it.

Although I don't know what it's used for at the moment, it's always good to hold it in your hand.

Su Lun put away the runes, and after seeing that the relief was identified as [Ordinary Stone Relief], he knew that there was nothing to take.

This giant city is more mysterious than expected, and there are hidden opportunities.

However, the danger is also real.

Su Lun was not greedy, and there were already some small movements in his ears. It sounded like the monsters in the distance were attracted by the bloody smell here.

After leaving the temple, he quickly walked up the steps on the square, and then came to the huge palace on the top.

Surprisingly, there were no traces of battle in the palace.

It's just that in the center of the hall, a dark passage leading to the ground opened on the ground engraved with complicated magic patterns.

The Luying Royal Legion obviously went down.

After observing for a while,

Only then did Su Lun cautiously walk into the hall.

After entering the door, I saw two rows of giant guard stone sculptures holding knives, guns, axes and halberds, with solemn expressions, burly and majestic.

"That is."

Su Lun looked along the palace, thinking that there was a wall in the distance, but unexpectedly, it was a stone sculpture of a throne like a mountain!

On the throne sat a monster with a hundred hands and fifty heads.

Su Lun thought that the statues of giant guards standing tens of meters high around him were tall enough, but they were not as tall as his knees in front of the strange man on the throne.

"The hundred-armed giant in myths and legends? Could it be that the former king of this city was a hundred-armed giant?"

When Su Lun saw the sculpture, a strong sense of mystery came over him.

The image of the strange man on the throne is the one-hundred-armed giant standing at the top of the battle power in myths and legends, capable of tearing up dragons with his hands and stepping on gods!

It seemed to uncover a period of history that had been buried in the dust of history, and the heavy sense of time made Su Lun inexplicably excited.

No wonder those adventurers and navigators would risk their lives to explore various dangerous places. Unraveling some prehistoric secrets and perfecting the cognition of this world is really a very satisfying and fulfilling thing!

Su Lun narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at everything in the hall.

Think about it, he stepped into that dark underground passage.

Su Lun knew that there was an underground palace here when he stripped off the [Abbas Thousand-Eyed Meat Mountain] soul fragments.

So after entering, it is not surprising to see that it seems to be going down the stairs to hell.

From the moment he stepped onto the stairs, it was as if he had entered another world, and the aura of death around him became more and more intense.

Su Lun guessed that this underground palace might be the key to sealing the "Place of Burial God".

Having suffered from the illusion before, Su Lun became more careful. The black crows released did not dare to continue to share their vision, for fear of seeing something they shouldn't see.

The crow's own intelligence is not low, and he can roughly understand the situation ahead after he is put back occasionally to communicate.

Although the forward progress is slower, it is safe anyway.

This staircase leading to the ground seems endlessly long, without any light source, not even a crack in space.

And the further you go down, the red light at the exit behind you becomes weaker and weaker, gradually becoming the size of a sesame seed, and finally disappears completely.

Su Lun didn't dare to create a light source, which would attract monsters in the dark.

He was plunged into absolute darkness.

Fortunately, he has mastered certain laws of space, can distinguish the existence of steps under his feet, and walks fairly smoothly.

Su Lun walked down step by step,

This ladder seems to never end.

Absolute darkness, absolute silence, and the unknown of the road ahead... will instinctively activate the primitive fear in the bottom of the heart.

He could clearly hear his heartbeat and breathing, as well as the thoughts in his mind.

This state has lasted for a long time, and the thoughts in your mind are as clear as someone talking in your ear.

It will cause people to have a steady stream of hallucinations and fears.

But Su Lun was used to this lonely state, and walked smoothly.

"There's something in the dark"

In Su Lun's perception, he clearly noticed some abnormal soul fluctuations.

But it was probably because he was lifeless, had no light source, and didn't even make much sound, and didn't disturb those existences in the darkness.

There are also some abnormal structures beside the stairs, which look like organs.

Su Lun didn't study what those institutions were, and carefully avoided them.

However, after walking for a while, he stopped.

"I'm stuck? No wonder I haven't made it to the end after walking for so long."

In the dark, Su Lun was expressionless, which was not too surprising.

If this underground is a sealed place, then some restrictions are normal.

"Not optical illusions, nor physical mazes."

Su Lun sensed something and confirmed something.

He didn't move on, dragged his chin and began to recall the path he had traveled before, thinking: "Every 305 steps, the steps will repeat. Have I met something similar to the 'Penrose Stairs'?"

He thought of the hint from the identification of the pupil of omniscience before he came in, "No wonder I felt that the space was abnormal before. The space here is chaotic."

Because Su Lun was proficient in some space laws, he quickly discovered the anomaly.

Obviously, this is not the three-dimensional space in sensory cognition, it may be a higher dimension, or the interlacing of several chaotic spaces, which caused this infinitely downward but impossible to get out of the stairs.

In this fantasy world, such existence is not uncommon.

Sometimes the senses, sight, hearing, taste, touch, and the five senses can deceive the brain and give some wrong judgments.

If you believe in perception too much, you will misjudge.

The designer of this maze probably thought so.

For example, the stairs in front of him didn't even notice the abnormality in the space perception, obviously the restriction is very advanced.

Su Lun didn't think of a way to crack it for the time being, so he released a silk thread from his hand, using the most stupid method.

The witch's hair has infinite length, no matter how complicated this space is, it cannot be endless.

He kept going.

The silk thread was laid all the way.

In his mind, there was soon a circuit outlined with silk thread, and gradually formed a circuit diagram that was not straight down.

Soon, Su Lun discovered the anomaly.

He bumped into what he felt as a "wall" in space perception.

Sure enough, he managed to get out.

Su Lun saw that there was no longer a stepped underground building in front of him, and muttered: "It's a very clever space restriction. The designer even considered the space ability person."

At the same time, he thought of something, narrowed his eyes and thought, "Lu Ying and those people are very familiar with this underground palace."

Su Lun didn't meet those people himself, which meant that they passed quickly and didn't trigger any mechanism.

Obviously, they have a map, or a special cracking method.

Su Lun preferred the former.

It seemed that he had no difficulty in deciphering the maze by himself.

But actually, it's hard.

To be able to decipher the space stairs just now is not a matter of level, it requires a lot of special abilities.

If Su Lun hadn't mastered a lot of knowledge and abilities, he really wouldn't be able to get out.

But at the same time, he was even more confused, where did Lu Ying and those guys get the information from?

Also, what are you doing here?

Thoughts in Su Lun's mind raced again, looking at the tall corridor with dense roots in front of him, he also found something.

This corridor is like the city wall outside before, consisting of countless huge stones.

The air was slightly humid, and intertwined roots sprouted from the cracks in the rocks.

Identification shows that these roots are the body of the druid's sacred tree.

"This timeline should be after the Dalu tribe's divine art [Buying God] was cast. The ground still doesn't know how many years ago, this is five hundred years ago? It's really a chaotic timeline."

Su Lun frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then stepped into the corridor.

Before he had gone far, he saw a fork in the road, and there was more than one.

Su Lun knew that this was an underground labyrinth.

More caution was needed, but instinct told him it wasn't necessary.

There are traces of large troops passing by on the ground. The Luying Royal Legion passed here not long ago.

Those people knew the ruins very well, and Su Lun felt that following the traces would save a lot of effort.

As he walked, Su Lun saw bloodstains and corpses in the corridor.

There are humans, and there are monsters.

The human corpses are naturally from the Luying Royal Legion, and the corpses of those monsters are all kinds of strange, and some new monsters have appeared here.
