The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 735: Twisted ruins

It is precisely because of the blood group's aversion to White Swan Castle that the person responsible for receiving visitors is just the ordinary housekeeper of White Swan Castle.

For an aristocrat, this kind of behavior is a little rude, except that all the people visiting are scholars who are engaged in research. Studying ancient ruins in their minds is far more important than exchanging feelings with noble lords, so the practice of the Kevin family Did not cause any dissatisfaction.

When Leo and Sylvia came to White Swan Castle, some invited scholars came first. They were headed to the base of the tower by the servants of the castle.

After getting off the carriage, Leo and Sylvia handed the invitation to the servants of the castle. After checking the authenticity of the invitation, another servant led them into the castle, along the side of the hall Stone steps down into the basement.

Prior to this, both Leo and Sylvia have read the information about the foundation of the tower under the White Swan Castle, knowing that the Kevin family can keep the remains as discoverable as possible in order to facilitate the study of the ruins of this tower. At the time, and in order to make the construction of the castle not affect this ruin, they also used a large number of columns to erect the foundation of the castle, thereby ensuring the integrity of the ruin.

However, no matter how detailed the content seen from the information is, it is far less than the scene seen on the scene.

After walking down the spiral staircase for about a dozen meters, a wooden door was pushed open, and the place where the ruins of the tower were entered.

I saw that the entire underground is a man-made cave with a diameter of about two kilometers. All around the cave are neatly stacked with giant ten pieces. Dozens of stone pillars are scattered throughout the cave, supporting the foundation of the castle at the top of the cave. The stone of the cave is also made of light-absorbing stone, and it is integrated with the castle outside, so the light absorbed by the castle outside is also transferred here, exudes, and the dark, dark cave should be as bright as the outside.

In this environment, the remains of the tower at the bottom of the cave are clearly visible, not only some major architectural facilities can be seen, but even some symbols with mysterious meaning on the walls can also be seen clearly.

In order to facilitate the researchers to observe the ruins of the tower as a whole, the craftsmen hired by the Kuifan family specially set up a circle of plank roads along the surrounding walls. The researchers can walk along the plank road and surround the cave, and move the entire tower from above. The ruins have a panoramic view.

At this moment, many scholars who specialize in enriching the study of ancient ruins have entered the ruins of the tower below, according to their own methods to study the mysterious symbols, architectural structures, causes of destruction, etc. in this ruin. In fact, these contents have been in the past It has been studied by scholars, and the parts that can be excavated have also been excavated. It stands to reason that there should be no more valuable things to guess right.

But the actual situation is not like this. Just when Leo and Sylvia first arrived, some scholars burst into surprise shouts in the ruins.

It turned out that this scholar had also participated in the study of this ruin before, and he specifically found a ruin filled with various symbols to study the meaning of the above symbols. For this reason, he copied all the symbols and carefully marked each symbol. The exact location of the painting even drew the ruins he studied with his superb painting skills.

For this scholar, he knows more about this ruin than his family, but just now he discovered that the various symbols on the ruin have changed, not only a lot more than before. Symbols, and the position of some symbols has also changed.

Not only this scholar, other people who have participated in the study of the ruins of the tower have also found that the ruins of their previous research have changed, and with their survey of the site, they have not found any artificial traces, and those Corrosion marks on the surface of the remains show that these are naturally formed.

All kinds of novel discoveries also excite the researchers of these ancient ruins and devote themselves wholeheartedly to the study of the ruins.

Compared with these pure ancient civilization scholars, Leo and Sylvia are obviously more like two different types.

After they arrived at this place, they did not wait for the scholars to rush down the ruins below, just like the two tourists who visited the museum, they walked along the plank road leisurely, and stopped from time to time. , Looking at a piece of ruins below that is being studied by scholars.

"It's really weird!" Sylvia whispered around Leo: "In the outside rumors, the blood tribe does not care about this ruin, and even sniffs at the treasures in the ruins, but now, those rumors obviously have The problem is that from the scale of protection here, the blood race attaches great importance to this place, and even I suspect that the White Swan Castle above was repaired for this ruin."

"What do you think the blood clan wants from here?" Leo asked thoughtfully.

"I don't know." Sylvia shook his head, then pointed to the scholars below, and said: "But I know the answer lies in these witchcraft runes and Turing roots."

Leo was unconvinced about Sylvia's speculation and continued to walk along the boardwalk, but after walking a distance away, he stopped again and looked down at the ruins below.

I saw Yilan and several library scholars recording the symbols that changed on the ruin. Her mind was all on the ruins, without realizing Leo was standing on top of his head.

"Ylang in the library, a good scholar." Sylvia approached Leo and easily recognized the person below. "Unfortunately, she studied with the Piusius School, which was too stiff." It is only suitable for some data collectors, it is difficult to have any breakthrough achievements in academics."

"Go, let's see." Leo gestured to Sylvia, then jumped directly off the boardwalk and landed firmly on the ground.

Sylvia also followed, and her body gradually slowed down when she fell. There was no more power to fall when her feet fell on the ground. She seemed to have paced gently.

The two did not disturb the library scholar who was studying in Shen Jing. They came to a broken wall and looked at it.

Sylvia was not interested in these things, and could not see anything useful. The symbols above seemed to her like a foreign language that had never been touched, so she turned around and looked at other ruins after a while went.

Compared to Sylvia, Leo’s situation is not much better.

Originally Leo thought that with his own ability, even if he could not fully interpret the symbols and Turing roots on the ruined wall, he could also find some clues for interpretation.

But after seeing these symbols and Turing roots up close, Leo found that what he had learned before was not used. The symbols themselves were completely wrong and the combination was confusing, even the Turing roots They are all random combinations, and they do not follow the most basic combination rules at all.

If it is just that, Leo may think that this is a tattered forgery by a person who knows nothing, and has no research value. He may even think that the whole ruin is just a scam of the blood race, but what puzzles him The ruins exude weak energy fluctuations, and the source of these energy fluctuations are those symbols and Turing roots that he thinks are all wrong.

This abnormal situation almost caused Leo to have the wrong idea of ​​the relevant knowledge he had learned before, but he quickly got rid of the influence of this abnormal emotion, calmed down, and re-examined these Turings full of errors and contradictions. Radical symbol.

He suddenly thought that if according to the normal situation, these symbols full of chaos, disorder and errors and Turing roots could never produce these energies, but there was a place where these symbols could be different from Turing roots. Power, and this place is the abyss.

The abyss itself is distorted, chaotic, and disordered. These symbols and Turing roots that seem to have no meaning at all here may have a magical effect in the abyss.

"Perhaps these symbols and Turing roots were originally normal, but then they were distorted by the influence of the abyss." A bold guess suddenly appeared in Leo's heart.

"Mr. Leo, when did you come?" Ylang had just copied some of the signs around the corner. She stood up and moved her body, and just saw Leo standing in front of the broken wall, and immediately stepped forward. Come and ask.

"It didn't take long." Leo responded briefly.

At this time, Sylvia also came over, nodded to Ylang, and then asked Leo: "Anything found?"

"There was a little discovery." Leo nodded affirmatively, and then said what he had just discovered and guessed.

"Abyss?" Sylvia and Ylang both exclaimed, but the two exclaimed had completely different meanings.

Sylvia did not expect that the power of the abyss was involved here. She was more surprised, but Ylang was completely at a loss, not knowing what the abyss was.

"Are you sure that the power of the abyss is at work?" Sylvia asked affirmatively.

"I think it should be." Leo was not completely sure. He thought about it a little and suddenly asked Ylang: "Miss Ylang, have the symbols appearing in this area been recorded by your library? "

"Yes." Yilan didn't know why Leo suddenly asked such a question, but nodded faithfully.

Leo asked again: "Have you brought the previous record with you now?"

"Yes." Yilan nodded and said, "I'll get it for you."

With that said, she turned and went to the place where the package was placed, then looked inside the package, pulled out a stack of achievement documents, turned over two pages to confirm that they were correct, and then came over to Leo.

After receiving the file, Leo quickly turned a few pages and quickly found what he was looking for.

"Look at these copied symbols and patterns." Leo spread out the materials in his hands so that both of them could see them, then pointed out some of the materials he had just discovered and said.

The two looked at the place Leo pointed out and found nothing unusual.

Leo had expected that the two would have such a reaction, so he walked to the broken wall and drew a spot on the broken wall with his finger, saying, "Compare the two."

The two compared the information in the book according to the place pointed out by Leo, and soon Sylvia found out, a little surprised expression appeared on his face,

Ylang didn't see anything at first, but after Sylvia reached out and hinted at the symbol on the wall, he quickly understood what was going on, and said in surprise: "This Is it a variant symbol?"

After being surprised, Yilan found out the variant symbols of several original symbols in the data by contrast.

"What's going on? Why are these symbols distorted?" Sylvia had already asked her questions when Yilan was puzzled and wanted to ask Leo.

"This should be related to the illusion half a year ago?" Leo responded briefly, then said to Sylvia: "Let's go! Let's look elsewhere." Chao Yilan, who followed him very seriously, said: "To give you a friendly suggestion, you'd better pack up and leave immediately. Don't study these things here anymore. These things have no research value, but they will have a bad influence on you."

After finishing speaking, Leo led Sylvia to turn away from the ruins and walk to other places.

Seeing Leo suddenly leave inexplicably, and said something like that, Ylang was completely blank, but at the same time she felt a trace of danger instinctively, so she decided to follow Leo's suggestion~www.mtlnovel. com~ stop researching and leave here.

However, when she decided to leave, there was a little problem. All of her colleagues fell into the obsession with research. They thought that the symbols and patterns that had never been seen were of great research value, as long as they could interpret the meaning, Maybe they will make them famous in the academic world, and they have no intention of leaving with her.

Seeing that her companions are all obsessed with research, Yilan, who is also a researcher, knows that there must be no way to pull them, which makes her want to stay and accompany them. When they eat, they persuade, See if you can persuade success.

But when she moved the thoughts left behind, the strong sense of crisis reappeared in her mind. She did not know how this sense of crisis was generated, but she knew it was not an illusion.

To this end, Yilan persuaded her companion once again, but the result was still the same, and she felt that she had fulfilled her duty of reminding, even if something happened, she would not feel guilty for this, so she quickly cleaned herself up In his suit, hurriedly left this ruin.

And when she climbed the spiral staircase, when she couldn't see the ruins, the sense of crisis that made her suffocate disappeared, which also convinced her that the decision she made was correct.
