In the magic tower, Akasha and Natha's footsteps did not stop.
A sense of crisis lingered in the hearts of the two. Although the magic tower was quiet at this time, they could not be sure if the battle outside the door and the door would stop. They were not naive enough to think that they were safe now. After experiencing so many trials of life and death, neither of them had any hope in their hearts.
At this point, the only thought in their minds was to try to calm down and think of a way out.
After staying in this team for a long time, no matter who it was, they would gradually be influenced by the leader. Akasha and Natha's heart had long been rooted in Roddy's calmness at all times. So at this time, there was not much panic on their faces. Instead, they were calmly observing everything around them.
At this time, there was basically only one question in their mind: Why was this magic tower built?
"There's a line of words here …" Natha, who was walking on the stairs, pointed to the opposite wall. "Between the pillars."
"I see it." Akasha looked over, and then spelled out the words that were casually carved on the stone wall, "I see hope, test subject number 317 survived for three days …"
"There's something there too."
"Where? Uh … This is' Damn it, there seems to be something underground '. "
"This is — 'Arcana theory is wrong, mine is right'."
The two walked along the spiral stairs to the top of the tower. Along the way, they spelled out the words that seemed to be randomly carved on the walls. Unknowingly, they had entered the upper area.
At this moment, the two of them had also found something from the clues.
Akasha frowned slightly and whispered, "This tower seems to be used by only one person. Otherwise, he would not randomly write these complaints like graffiti."
Natha was not good with words, but she also knew that it was not good to stay silent now. So she also said her conclusion after careful observation, "This guy should … should have stayed here for a long time."
She raised her hand and pointed to the top and the base of the tower. "Although the words on these two places were written by the same person, the strokes gradually became sloppy in the later stages. It was as if he wrote these things to vent or relieve boredom …"
The combination of similar inferences probably put together an incomplete puzzle: this magic tower should be an independent area used by a magician, and the purpose seemed to be to study and do some experiments on the snow monsters.
The mage's final research seemed to be successful, but he soon encountered an unexpected accident. The reason was because when Akasha and Natha stepped into the top area of the tower, they found a cracked wall and some words …
"I can't accept this! I will succeed, and the whole world will tremble under my shadow! "
"Even if he dies, this bastard won't have it easy!"
Such a result naturally meant that the other party had ended up in failure.
Akasha looked back at the ground that was tens of meters away, and then turned her gaze back to the blurry cracks that formed the words in front of her. Suddenly, her gaze became serious, and she reached out to touch the cracks on the wall. She whispered, "These words were created by the use of Elemental Explosion …"
Her tone was full of disbelief, followed by a deep sense of awe.
Natha held her short bow and was on guard, not understanding the meaning of these words. She was not a mage, so naturally she did not know what was there to be amazed about. But Akasha was different. Although she was a clergyman, she had been in the Viper Cross for a long time, and could be said to be "knowledgeable". She was very clear: using the "Elemental Wind Blade" to carve words on the stone was basically something that a high-level mage could do. But using the "Elemental Explosion" to create words was basically equivalent to using the impact of an explosive arrow to carve tofu …
The words "lifting something heavy as if it were light" were used to describe this kind of godly control of the elements. If just carving words had such power, Akasha could not help but feel a little apprehensive. Could it be that the previous owner of this place was also a terrifying person on the same level as Khadgar?
The crazy snow monsters outside, the strange elemental creatures, and the clues in front of her combined together, Akasha felt that she seemed to have touched upon a huge secret that had been covered up in history. But she did not have much time to analyze it, because the problem in front of them was unavoidable: where was their way out?
With uncertain expressions, the two finally arrived at the top of the tower. This place did not have the ring-like structure of the other floors, but in the middle, there was a circular magic circle with an area of a hundred square meters. After leaving the steps, Natha came to the edge of the magic circle and squinted her eyes to observe the ground. After trying for a long time, she finally confirmed that there were no traps. Akasha also released a few divine spells, and after confirming that there were no traps, she finally stepped into the magic circle. She wanted to go to the core of the stone platform to find clues, but she had only taken a few steps when a light instantly bloomed from under her feet …
"Buzz …"
The unique buzzing sound of the magic circle's activation instantly spread throughout the entire tower, and then the entire magic tower began to shake. The sound of the stone building twisting and deforming caused the two to turn pale as they struggled to stabilize themselves. For a moment, they did not know what to do, and the only thought in their minds was: If the tower collapsed just like that, they would definitely die …
Fortunately, the shaking quickly disappeared, but when Akasha raised her head, she revealed the same shocked expression as Natha.
The sudden activation of the magic circle did not cause any harm to the two of them. Instead, it emitted a large amount of blue light. The intersecting beams of light condensed and formed a holographic image in front of the two of them.
Akasha looked at it with bated breath. The scaled down city walls, the fortress, the inner city, the magic tower, and the white palace gradually floated up. If Roddy was here, he would definitely exclaim, because this was a 3D holographic map of the "King Solomon's Treasure" dungeon!
But Akasha and Natha did not understand what these buildings meant. They stared blankly in front of them, and after a long while, they heard the little priest exclaim, "Those snow monsters!"
She pointed at the outer city wall. The wall, which was made of light beams, had shrunk to a height of one meter. However, it was not completely empty. Instead, there were figures fighting with all their might, as well as the snow monsters that were trying to break through the city wall.
Sodelor's figure with his battle shield was very conspicuous. Akasha looked to the side, and the reserve troops were seizing the time to drink and rest. Irwin, who was swinging his battle axe wildly, kicked away an approaching enemy, and opened his mouth wide to roar …
All these images made Akasha instantly understand the function of the magic circle, and a sudden surge of hope rose in her heart. She turned her head and wanted to call Natha, but found that Natha was actually lying low on the ground …
"Natha?"
"Roddy is here!"
The Wood Elf's voice was filled with indescribable excitement, mixed with emotions, and Akasha inexplicably felt something. But at this time, she did not have time to speak, and rushed to Natha's side to look over …
In the palace behind the magic tower, Roddy's figure could be seen at a glance, but the strange thing was that there was a familiar figure not far in front of him.
"That's … that dragon called Merinsera?"
Akasha and Natha looked at each other. Although they still had doubts, at this time, they believed that the content of the magic circle could not be fake. But because of this, they were very surprised. In this world of ice and snow, which was said to be the end of the world, how could they meet Dragons? And it was a familiar one?
But before they could figure out the connection, Roddy's action in the image made the two gasp — he suddenly raised his short bow and shot an arrow at Merinsera!
*****
"Whoosh!"
At the moment when Merinsera was about to shatter the stone statue, Roddy had no choice but to attack — a long arrow instantly flew out, shooting straight at the Shadow Dragon's arm …
"Crack."
In the next moment, Merinsera's arm shook, and the spinning arrow suddenly stopped in her hand, then was crushed into pieces.
Even if the Dragon Crystal had lost its response, a Giant Dragon was still a Giant Dragon, after all. The attribute advantage brought by the difference in level was not something that Roddy could make up for at present. In front of the Shadow Dragon, Roddy's attack was no threat to it at all.
But at this time, Roddy was also suffering unspeakably. The moment the first arrow was shot, he was already mentally prepared for all the consequences that would follow, but the current situation forced him to do something like this to make enemies with the Dragons.
"What is buried under the ground is not treasure!"
He raised his short bow, but did not forget to shout this sentence. But obviously, Merinsera took this sentence as a provocation, and her face instantly turned extremely gloomy.
Dragons had their pride. Although Merinsera was angered, she would not waste her breath. After glancing at Roddy, she directly ignored him, raised her hand, and blasted at Solomon's statue again — in her eyes, finding the treasure was her top priority.
This caused Roddy, who was holding the short bow, to completely miscalculate. In a moment of desperation, he gritted his teeth and continued to shoot two more arrows. At the same time, he leaped forward frantically, threw away the short bow in his hand, and picked up the battle axe on his back …
"Stop!"
Since he started to stop Merinsera, this was the third time that Roddy had shouted a warning, but all he got in return was a palm strike from the other party!
"Get lost."
Regardless of whether Roddy had saved her before or not, Merinsera had completely erased all positive impressions of him — if he dared to attack the Dragons, the only outcome left for him was death.
As for Roddy's words, Merinsera did not take it seriously at all.
The arrow was knocked away, and the battle axe was slapped away. Facing this human who pulled out his short sword and tried to attack her again, Merinsera finally lost her patience. She slapped Roddy away, and then finally got her wish and punched the statue …
Roddy, who was sent flying, fell to the ground with a thud. The arm he used to block the attack was almost broken, but at this moment, he could not care less about the pain in his body. Instead, he tried his best to support his body, and widened his eyes as he stared at the shattered statue of Solomon.
The arrogant 'Solomon' was shattered into pieces, and at the same time, an oppressive aura suddenly gushed out, making Merinsera feel suffocated.
Even though Merinsera was a powerful Dragons who had lived in seclusion for many years, she still lost her composure at this moment — she wanted to retreat, but her body froze on the spot … Her pretty face was filled with horror, as if she had completely forgotten that she was a noble Dragons who controlled the lives and deaths of others just a few seconds ago.
"It's too late … It's still too late …"
On the other side, Roddy, who had been completely suppressed by the terrifying aura of the tomb, swallowed hard. His gaze gradually turned to the relief depicting the construction of the palace.
In the relief, there was a huge … Snow Monster that was more than a hundred meters tall below the palace.
