After noting that the little guy's mental state was not as focused as before, Zhang Cheng immediately asked, "how's it going? What's recorded on these walls?"
"Well... At present, I only read a small part, a bit like someone's suicide note," Celine baratheon whispered as she ate.
Her eyes were still fixed on the wall, surrounded by countless scribbled papers.
Needless to say, these papers are all different translations of each word, and then infer what the sentence means by combining other words and context in a sentence.
In fact, because the letter itself is a text form that expresses specific meaning through pronunciation, which is very similar to Pinyin, it is easy to produce ambiguity in the process of interpretation, just as the languages of European countries on earth are developed from Latin.
For people in these countries, the other languages of the same language family are almost similar to the Chinese dialects, so don't think it's incredible to hear that Europeans can learn several or even more languages.
As an ancient as like as two peas, the higher Vic language has the same characteristics. And no one really knows the language, so little Celion can only try to read the rest by relying on a small part of Tango Liam's family book.
"Suicide note?" Zhang Cheng subconsciously turned around and glanced at the human bones piled up in the corner of the room.
The girl nodded gently: "yes! At the time of the disaster, a flame mage who called himself Alvin and a dozen slaves were trapped. In order to survive, he killed all those slaves one by one, and then struggled for a month by eating corpses..."
Speaking of the end, little Celine couldn't help shaking, and her eyes showed an indescribable panic.
For her kind-hearted, let alone the extremely cruel behavior of people eating people, killing people like animals has exceeded the bottom line in her heart.
But in Zhang Cheng's view, as long as a person is hungry for six or seven days, his subconscious survival instinct will begin to activate the beast hidden under the appearance of civilization.
When this animal nature reaches a certain level, let alone treat the same kind as food, even more disgusting things, such as excreta, cockroaches and mice, will also work hard to put them in their mouths.
Maybe it's too absolute to say that 100% of no one can resist the attack of hunger, but more than 99% is absolutely right.
He didn't care about the girl's extreme reaction to cannibalism. He continued to ask, "what about the content of the suicide note? Did he mention the specific details of the doomsday catastrophe? Did he leave detailed information about Valeria's magic?"
"About the doomsday catastrophe, I mentioned one point. According to his description, first I heard loud shouts and screams, and then the ground shook violently. Before long, a deafening noise echoed over the whole city. He tried to open the door of the secret room and go out to see what happened. Unfortunately, the door had triggered some protective measures to completely seal the inside Shut up. In addition, he also mentioned that the vibration originally came from the southeast. As for the magic mastered by the varelians, it was recorded on a huge dragon crystal stone slab, which was hidden in the deepest part of the underground of the high tower. "
Then little Celine pointed to a Dragon Statue about three meters high not far away.
Obviously, this statue is the entrance to the deeper.
Hearing the speech, Zhang Cheng immediately approached and carefully observed every detail of the statue.
After a while, he found that the red gemstones embedded in the longan position seemed a little different from ordinary gemstones.
To confirm his guess, he raised his staff and poked it.
moment
A hot flame came out of the dragon's mouth!
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and rolled in time to avoid the front of the flame.
In just a few seconds, the stone slabs laid on the ground began to melt and become a pool of magma emitting terrible high temperature.
"Damn it! The Valerians really like the fire spell..." Zhang Cheng quickly pulled down the lighted cloak and gritted his teeth and complained.
You know, he has only begun to explore the ruins. In less than half a day, he has encountered two fire attacks. There will be more next.
No wonder many people say that varelia's magic is blood and fire. Now it seems true.
As the flame from the dragon's mouth gradually became smaller and disappeared, a tunnel leading to deeper appeared.
Unlike before, there is no light or gorgeous decoration in this tunnel, and only rough rocks on both sides.
Against the heat waves from the magma, Zhang Cheng bent down and passed through the dragon mouth, which was only less than one meter and five meters, and took out a pearl emitting milky white soft light.
With the help of the faint light, he saw that the winding tunnel was like a spiral staircase, leading to deeper places, and the lower it went, the higher the temperature of the surrounding environment, and some places even exceeded the limit of human tolerance.
"Interesting, isn't there an active volcano below?" Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes and muttered.
As a cautious man, he has no rash and in-depth plan. At least he won't act rashly before completing the preparation. Who knows what dangerous things are hidden at the end of the bottomless tunnel.
"Do you think there will really be a stone slab recording the warelian magic below?" little Celine asked curiously.
"Of course! How can a person who knows he is going to die lie? I'm just a little worried about whether there is anything else besides the slate." Zhang Cheng shrugged his shoulders and replied.
"When shall we go in?" the girl asked again with bright eyes.
Zhang Cheng smiled, stretched out a finger and shook it in front of little Celine: "no, no, no, it's me, not us. Just stay in the camp. It's too dangerous for you."
"Hey! It's not fair! I helped you find the entrance! You can't enjoy the adventure alone! You have to take me!"
As soon as he heard that he was not going to take him, the little guy quit immediately and loudly defended his rights and interests.
For her, this trip is probably the most exciting and the only adventure in her life, so she doesn't want to miss it anyway.
"Ha ha! Fun? Where do you see I'm enjoying the fun of exploration? Remember those sailors and soldiers outside? Do you know why I took them?" Zhang Cheng asked with a laugh.
Celine hesitated for a few seconds and soon shook her head: "I don't know..."
"It doesn't matter. I don't know. I can tell you. They are consumables and cannon fodder used to kill and delay time at critical moments!" Zhang Cheng's eyes twinkled with cold light, which directly broke the girl's unrealistic fantasy at the bottom of her heart.
