Super Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 334 Corpses at the bottom of the lake

It was also pitch black under the lake, and the view was completely blocked. Angel quickly built a hexagonal model in his thinking space. With a slight push of magic power, a white ball of light appeared out of thin air in the light shield of the purification force field, like a bright lamp, illuminating the surrounding area.

This is the level 0 cantrip light spell.

In the past two months, he had completed most of the commonly used tricks, including the light trick, which he had never bothered to learn in the past and thought it was a waste of time.

The light spell only has the effect of glowing, and the light it emits is not bright. It is similar to a torch and can illuminate the surrounding area for two or three meters at most. But torches cannot be used underwater, and the light spell does not have this restriction.

In fact, there is an advanced magic trick called "Shine". It can illuminate a range of tens of meters, but the shining technique is a level 1 magic. To learn it, you need to accumulate a certain amount of corresponding knowledge. It takes a long time to study to learn it, and Angel has no plans to learn it yet.

With the help of the light technique, the dark and cold lake water finally had a little brightness.

Using the dim light to look around, he saw that there was unknown black debris floating in the water, and he also found some strange black threads, like human hair, floating quietly in the water.

Looking at the bunch of black hair wrapped together, even with the separation of the purification force field, Angel could still imagine how disgusting the smell was.

The lake was not deep, about four or five meters, and Angel quickly reached the bottom of the lake. The bottom of the lake was full of unknown black paint-like things. He initially thought it was a natural resource of petroleum, but he used a magic ball to wrap a part of the black paint into the purification field. In an instant, a nauseating rancid smell filled the tip of his nose.

Not oil. Angel thought for a long time, and based on his experience, he didn't know what this thing was, so he had to give up.

The bottom of the lake is not deep, which also proves one thing. In the past, villagers could not live solely on this water. This lake may have been living water once, but now it is blocked for some unknown reason.

With this idea in mind, Angel began to search for possible blocked pipes in the dark water.

Every few steps he took, a "wind tornado" was activated from Angel's hand, rolling up the debris at the bottom of the water. The bottom of the lake began to stir violently, and many things hidden in the scum were lifted out.

Angel has been maintaining a purification force field, temporarily blocking off the sewage and garbage, and adding the light spell, so he can clearly see many strange things.

For example, a small, worn-out iron box flashed past Angel's eyes.

He quickly captured the iron box and dragged it into the light shield of the purification force field. Angel estimated that this iron box had not been opened for a long time. He was afraid that opening it would cause qualitative changes in the contents inside, so he learned the lesson and did not try to open the iron box. Instead, he put his mental tentacles in to observe the internal situation.

Angel was a little surprised by the picture fed back by the mental tentacles. Looking at the sophistication and sealing of the box, he thought it was for jewelry and treasures, but the box contained mostly undamaged medical equipment, such as Syringes, medicine bottles, syringes and the like.

Angel thought for a while, then used the Cleaning Technique to clean up the debris outside the small iron box, then used the Purifying Technique to remove the smell, and finally put it into the bracelet.

The reason why the box was not discarded was that Angel found that the medical equipment inside had a strange symbol——

A snake coils around a cone.

This sign may reveal something about the village here.

As the "wind tornadoes" went down, the dark objects that had been buried for nearly a thousand years surfaced one by one. Among them, there are even several white bones with hair that has not yet fallen off.

No human bones were seen in the village. Angel thought that everyone here had escaped, but that didn't seem to be the case now. He only cleaned a corner of the bottom of the lake, and eight corpses appeared. Based on the area of ​​the entire lake, how many corpses had sunk to the bottom of the lake?

Could it be that the whole village was dead at the bottom of the lake?

Thinking of this possibility, Angel felt a little creepy. No wonder the lake smelled so bad. There are countless dead bodies in this dead lake for thousands of years, so it’s strange that it smells good.

Angel jumped out of the lake with the bones, placed the bones by the lake, and began to inspect them one by one.

When all eight bones were inspected, Angel's face showed a smile. After careful inspection, he determined that these bones were human, not humanoid. And based on the distribution of height and bone size, Angel judged that these might be Zhi people, belonging to the mainstream genus of Homo in the Southern Region.

This answer made Angel even more convinced that he might not have left the wizarding world.

It is not that there are no humans in other planes, but most of them are extraordinary beings, not ordinary humans. Angel was certain that these skeletons were once ordinary people. In addition, although the deserted village in the center of the earth is very strange, after Angel's search during this period, he can roughly judge that there should be no extraordinary things in the village.

A village full of ordinary humans would never appear outside the wizarding world!

Since he was still in the wizarding world, what was Angel worried about? As long as you never stay away, there is always a way back.

Angel dug a huge pit with his magical hands and put 8 corpses into the pit. He maintained basic respect for the dead.

Angel did not bury it immediately, but continued to go down to the bottom of the lake and stir up waves.

As he expected, the entire bottom of the lake was simply a mass grave. He fished out corpses one after another, including men and women, old and young. Among them was the corpse of a baby held in the arms of his mother. Looking at the corpses of a mother and child that seemed to be full of maternal love but also indifferent, Angel felt mixed emotions in his heart.

It is impossible for a baby to actively seek death, so this corpse seems to prove one thing: the people here may have been killed or committed suicide.

Putting aside the murder, if it was suicide, Angel didn't understand what kind of emotions this mother had. Would she rather die than take her baby with her?

"Alas..." Sighing softly, the past events have long been buried in time, and no one can explain why. Mortal emotions, because life is too short, explode with more passion and excitement. This is a kind of passion that wizards with long lifespans lack.

Perhaps a thousand years ago, a bloody disaster occurred here. or--

Angel turned back and looked at a certain part of the village. There was a nest that had been there for many years, where colorful dragonflies made their home. Angel didn't know if their visit might have caused problems here.

However, who can clarify what happened thousands of years ago?

Corpses, like piles of bones, were dragged out from the bottom of the lake by Angel and thrown into the huge pit. What he didn't know was that while he was doing these things, a golden vertical pupil was staring at him quietly in a hidden place at the bottom of the lake.

In the end, Angel removed nearly a hundred corpses from the bottom of the lake. This number seemed like a lot, but according to the size of the village, there should be more than a hundred people living there.

"Perhaps some of the remaining people escaped from the village?" Angel guessed.

Angel cleaned the bottom of the lake for a long time and took out almost all the corpses. However, the "underground passage" he was looking for to prove that the lake was once a living water lake was not found.

"Could it be that my guess is wrong? In fact, there are other water sources in this deserted village in the center of the earth? Is this lake just built to look good?"

But who would purposely build a stagnant lake for people to see?

Or is this lake actually the tomb of the villagers? They ended their lives with water burial?

Angel speculated to himself. He couldn't find an answer and couldn't find an exit. He had no choice but to leave the bottom of the lake and bury the bones first.

There were too many corpses, and the initial hole was a little small. Angel commanded Toby to violently smash a larger hole nearby, and then put the corpses into it one by one.

After the soil was covered, Angel also found a big stone, melted it into a monument using the thermal melting method, and carved a neat row of universal text with his magic hand:

"In an unknown deserted village, more than a hundred corpses were buried in the lake. Now a monument has been erected to commemorate them."

"The person who erected the monument: Angel Pat."

As the inscription was erected, Angel began to wonder if there was any other way. In fact, there is a stupid way to dig a road by himself, but he doesn't know the location of the infrastructure in the center of the earth. If he accidentally digs and landslides, it will be bad.

At this moment, Angel suddenly heard a gurgling sound coming from the lake behind him.

He turned around and saw that there was a whirlpool on the lake? !

How could Angel not know what the whirlpool on the lake meant? His face showed joy, he called Toby back, and then he plunged into the lake.

Angel came directly to the whirlpool, and he was surprised to find that a dark hole suddenly appeared at the bottom of the lake.

It is this abrupt hole that causes the vortex.

"Didn't you see a hole here before?" Angel was full of doubts, and then began to recall the previous situation here.

But after thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember any useful information. Because the bottom of the lake was too dark, even with the light spell, it could only illuminate two or three meters nearby. In addition, the bottom of the lake was uneven and full of black paint-like things. It was normal that he couldn't remember it.

"Perhaps the wind tornado was used to lift up the entrance of the cave, and then when we went to bury the villagers, the last layer of the membrane was crushed through due to water pressure?" Angel had no other guesses, and there was no one else here, so he could only make this guess.

As for whether it was the undead that caused trouble... Angel could still tell the difference. He didn't feel the fluctuations of the undead here. In addition, the chance of ordinary people turning into soul bodies and surviving is too low. Now that thousands of years have passed, it is impossible for the undead to exist.

When the bottom of the lake became calm again, Angel carefully stepped into the dark cave entrance.

There is an unknown cave entrance, an unknown path, and no one knows what the path ahead is. All Angel can do now is to be on full alert.

"Toby, you should also be careful!" Angel also reminded Toby, but when he turned to look at Toby, he found that Toby's eyes were very solemn.

"Toby?" Angel asked doubtfully.

Toby gestured twice to Angel: "Jigujigu."

"You said you want to go out?" Angel was a little surprised. Isn't Toby always the most clean person? It's not good to stay in the purification force field. Do you have to go out and come into contact with dirty and rancid water?
