Taming beasts starts with raising cats
Chapter 80 Ancient Magic (II)
"It is said that the ancient empire built these ruins to cultivate imperial envoys. Although there are many difficulties, the purpose is not just to kill the imperial envoys who break in. They will not cross the area they guard." Luo Lan said comfortably.
He looked around. Here is a fork in the road, which splits to the left and right.
But no matter which direction you go, it seems that there is no difference.
The passages on both sides are cold and silent, and only the torches on the wall are burning forever.
Bai Ye turned around and waved goodbye to the people outside the maze from a distance.
"Which way to go?" Luo Lan asked.
"You ask me?" Bai Ye was very strange. He actually asked me, a novice who had never been to the maze, and he was not afraid that I would lead you into a pit.
"Newbies usually have better luck." Luo Lan smiled.
"What's the difference between the two roads? You have been to other similar ruins before, so you should have experience." Bai Ye knocked on the wall, and the hard bronze wall gave a heavy and dull echo.
"Every entrance has a corresponding end point, at least the ancient ruins maze I have been to is like this." Luo Lan said. "On the way to the end, you will experience various tests, and you can get different levels of rewards by passing the tests."
"The layout of each maze is different, so I can only tell you about the experience of the maze rules."
"My goal is to subdue a beast. There should be beast eggs in the ancient ruins, but this ruins is too old, and I am not sure whether there are really beast eggs." Luo Lan said seriously. "Except for the beast eggs, I won't take anything else."
"You choose a way."
"Men on the left and women on the right, then go to the left." Bai Ye said.
"Is this a common saying in your place?" Luo Lan heard of such a rule for the first time.
"It is a custom. After people die in our place, the husband and wife are buried together. It is important that the man is on the left and the woman is on the right."
"......" Luo Lan was speechless. This is too unlucky!
The two walked more than a hundred meters to the right and turned a corner.
There is another straight corridor in front.
There is a sunken space in the middle of the corridor.
In the sunken space, there is a dark stone treasure chest.
"......Is this for us?"
Bai Ye didn't expect that there was actually a treasure chest in this maze.
But Bai Ye's first reaction was whether this was a trap or a monster in the shape of a treasure chest.
"Open it, these treasure chests are rewards for us. We should get rewards if we break in from the entrance."
Luo Lan asked Bai Ye to open the treasure chest.
Bai Ye walked forward, avoiding the front of the treasure chest, walked to the side and gently lifted it up.
Luo Lan narrowed his eyes, looked at the lid of the treasure chest and opened it, and took two steps forward.
He looked inside and found that it was empty, without any large objects.
That should be inside.
Bai Ye, who was squatting, stood up and found that there was a palm-sized thing like a metal ingot at the bottom of the stone box.
"Do you know this thing?" Bai Ye asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be something used by the ancient empire to record information." Luo Lan said after thinking.
"The ancient empire liked to use metal very much. In their era, various items and buildings used a lot of metal, and used various metals to the extreme. This is their style."
Bai Ye wrapped the metal ingot with clothes and took it out of the box.
This metal ingot should be solid and a bit heavy.
Bai Ye's five fingers didn't hold it firmly, and he slipped in his palm due to negligence, and the metal ingot "scattered" in an instant!
From a metal ingot, it turned into a book made of countless extremely thin metal sheets.
"This should be a book that records the ancient imperial language." Luo Lan said excitedly.
Bai Ye checked the contents recorded on it.
The words on it made Bai Ye feel a little familiar, a bit like oracle bone script.
"Do you know the words on it?" Bai Ye asked.
"I learned a little. The ancient imperial language is not complicated. It has similarities with the common language of the mainland. Many imperial envoys know it. This is also a language that a real adventure imperial envoy needs to master." Luo Lan said.
"I understand what you mean." Bai Ye interrupted Luo Lan.
"If you don't understand the ancient imperial language, it will be very troublesome if you encounter such relics and don't know the words, right?" Bai Ye said.
"Hahaha." Luo Lan gave a thumbs up, "Smart, you can answer quickly."
Bai Ye shook his head. He was a little emotional, and suddenly felt that the imperial envoy was a very scary profession.
Learning professional knowledge is fine, but you also have to learn other languages.
Bai Ye couldn't help but think of the days when he learned foreign languages.
It seems that no matter which world you are in, it's very hard to work hard.
"But... I remember that I can cheat." Bai Ye said, "At the beginning, I just put the continental common language directly on my forehead and learned it by communicating with mental power. This ancient imperial language should have similar props?"
"Yes, but I don't have it." Luo Lan said.
As if afraid that Bai Ye would misunderstand, Luo Lan explained seriously, "Do you know what that page is made of?"
Bai Ye shook his head.
Luo Lan continued: "It is a beast called the Book of Knowledge. They have a skill that can strip off a kind of knowledge they have learned and record it in the book with their own pages as the carrier.
But there is a rule, that is, their skill can only carry one knowledge. If the continental common language is selected, all subsequent pages can only be the continental common language.
So generally speaking, the knowledge extracted from the pages of the Book of Knowledge is universal and popular knowledge, and the most popular is the pages that record the common language of the continent. "
The Book of Knowledge is generally raised by a merchant family or academy with a special beastmaster.
It is said that this beastmaster has a strange temper and is difficult to serve.
"And there is a rumor, I don't know if it is true or not, it is said that the Book of Knowledge is a beastmaster created by the ancient empire."
"Creating a beastmaster?" Bai Ye was shocked, this hand is too open.
"I heard that the ancient empire created more than one kind of beastmaster. It is rumored that the ancient empire created a metal life that can feed on metal, which is close to elemental life. "Luo Lan said some rumors he had heard.
But they were just rumors, and it was hard to tell whether they were true or false.
Those taverns were always full of people who liked to drink and brag.
From their mouths, you can hear all kinds of legends and epic stories, but in fact, they might be ordinary people who have never left the city they were in.
Luo Lan finished reading the contents on the metal ingot.
Handed it over to Bai Ye.
"It records a method of breeding and advancing a beast called the red-tailed spotted hyena, which can be advanced to a ferocious hyena. The value is inestimable. If it is sold in the outside world, it can at least be exchanged for a high-level treasure."
"If the monster recorded on it has become extinct or extremely rare, this breeding method will only be of reference value. But I remember that the red-tailed spotted hyena is not extinct, and there are quite a few of them on the White Skeleton Plain. "
