[The third watch, tomorrow's fourth watch.]
It didn't matter to Silva. She was too lazy to use her brain, unless it was related to Salin.
Oftentimes, cleverness was no match for Silva's careless character. Jia Lin's provocation was useless. The only way to deal with Silva was to use her fists, but Jia Lin's fists were obviously not as big as Silva's.
Energy decay was a term for magic arrays. Any perfect magic array, including magic arrays with energy balance rules, would inevitably encounter the problem of energy decay. Most of the time, it wasn't because of the magic array itself, but because the environment didn't allow the elemental energy to continue operating.
These ruins had experienced tens of thousands of years, and the small puppets inside would inevitably face energy decay.
The principle of the crystal coffin was a theory involving the power of the plane.
This giant's ruins had always maintained the supreme power of this plane. And the power of the ruins itself, in fact, far exceeded the limit of the power of the Myers Continent.
It was as if there was a crystal coffin lid affecting the giant's ruins. This lid controlled the power of the ruins. If the power of the plane of the Myers Continent increased, the power of the ruins itself would also increase, maintaining this limit without violating the rules of the plane.
This was the principle that humans discovered when they went on expeditions to various planes. Many planes also had power that was higher than the rules of the plane, but it couldn't be moved or released. The invisible crystal coffin lid would restrict such existence.
The giant's ruins where Salin was located was a place restricted by the crystal coffin lid.
It was worth mentioning that gods didn't have this ability, but the divine spark had this attribute.
Under the effect of the crystal coffin principle, this ruins would always maintain the strongest power that the Myers Continent could accommodate, but the puppets in the ruins would follow the principle of energy decay and would constantly weaken.
However, this also meant that these puppets weren't specially used for defense. Otherwise, with the abilities of ancient humans, they would definitely have fused the power of the entire ruins into one. If that was the case, Salin would be facing a level-12 puppet, and not something that only had the strength of a level-8 or 9 puppet.
"I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of such parasitic puppets in the stomach of this giant, right?" Salin sighed, thinking that it wasn't easy for him to come across such a valuable ruin, why was it so difficult to enter? Even if the energy of these puppets weakened, they weren't something that he could deal with. There were so many of them.
"Why don't we go back?" Salin looked at Jia Lin and asked. Anyway, Daliang City was under his control. He could enter the underground relic at any time, as long as the people from the Vatican did not attack Daliang City.
Of course, Jia Lin refused. She didn't know when the next time would be.
"Even if I die, I have to try. Otherwise, I'm not a Magician, am I right?" Jia Lin smiled. Through the mask, Salin could feel her determination. She took out a magic flame bomb. Salin did not expect her to carry such a low-level equipment.
Garin quickly wrapped a layer of wind element around the surface of the magic flame bomb and threw it into the crypt.
"Don't …"
Salin's words were a little too late. The magic fireball was carried by the wind element and fell into the crypt in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace. After about a minute, Salin heard a loud bang and a faint flame appeared above the crypt.
There was a monotonous clicking sound. Jia Lin was laughing again. She said to Sarlin proudly, "How is it? There aren't that many puppets down there. I'm afraid that was the last one. "
Salin nodded. Sometimes, luck was related to bravery.
"Watch out!" Shika suddenly shouted. Salin then heard the sound of heavy inhalation and the deafening sound of friction. The space, which was originally lacking in elements, was suddenly filled with wind element. It was so dense that Salin could not breathe.
Roar!
A strange sound came from the crypt. Everyone, including Sicar, was involuntarily sucked into the crypt by a huge force. In a hurry, Salin still had time to summon the Gale Dragon and wrap everyone around him in wind element.
There were more than two hundred people who came to explore. Salin could not ignore the twelve Magic Shooters and Jia Lin. But some of the soldiers were miserable. They could not adapt to being wrapped in wind element, and their eyes were bloodshot.
Salin could not care so much. Even the Gale Dragon could not control the violent wind element. He had already tried his best to keep these people alive. Everyone stumbled, bumping against the stone walls of the crypt and falling down.
Along the way, dozens of soldiers were sucked into the branches of the crypt and could no longer be sensed. Salin knew that they would not survive.
The speed at which they were falling was too fast, so Salin hastily raised a huge Water Pattern Shield. This time, the Water Pattern Shield wrapped around the twelve High Mages. When Salin was in the Abyss King's City, he had specially upgraded this spell and made it a 10th Tier Spell.
Bang!
More than a hundred people fell heavily to the ground, while the people protected by the Water Shield bounced up. Salin was no longer the little mage he used to be. The huge balloon formed by the Water Shield stuck to the ground, and bounced up less than half a meter before it was fixed in place by Salin.
Salin thought that he had been sucked into the giant's stomach, but when he looked around, he realized that the environment he was in was a bit strange.
The Construct Puppets had fallen apart, but the Water Golems were fine. Gusin looked at the five mercenaries beside him with heartache. Some of his subordinates had also been sucked into the branches and disappeared.
Gusin also knew that Salin had sent them here to give his army some benefits. As a Gold Sword Saint, if he could obtain good equipment from the ruins, it would be a great help to his strength. Moreover, Salin had changed the equipment of all the mercenaries who went down into the crypt. They all had purple-gold leather bags.
It was supposed to be a good thing, but now it had become a bad thing. The risk in the ruins was greater than he had imagined. More than a dozen elites had died for no reason, which made Gusin feel sad.
But Carrie was like a swordsman. She bounced up from the ground and looked into the distance with bright eyes.
This was an incomparably huge crypt. No one knew how high it was. Salin's Elemental Eyes were limited here, and he could only see about three kilometers. This was the limit of a 9th Rank Magic Shooter. He did not know about the others, but with the Water Golems' senses, Lawson was now almost blind. He could only see about ten meters away.
"Leave here!" A loud and boundless voice resounded, echoing repeatedly in the empty cave. Salin's Water Shield had not been withdrawn yet. Outside the shield, the surviving warriors all had pained expressions, blood flowing out of their orifices. Electricity flickered on the surface of Salin's Water Shield, blocking the sound attack.
Carrie suddenly rushed out of the protection of the Water Shield, and in the blink of an eye, she was hundreds of meters away from Salin. Only then did Salin notice that in front of Carrie, in front of a huge hexagonal magic array stood a stone tablet.
This stone tablet was about a hundred meters tall, and was completely black. In this environment where elements were scarce and there was no light, Salin actually did not notice it.
Salin raised his left arm, and the star map on his Star Pattern Bracelet rotated slightly. The Thunder Dragon Spear appeared. He gritted his teeth, wanting to shoot Carrie, but in the end, he did not dare to do so. Ebola was not that easy to offend. Thinking of Ebola using the Seal of the Six-Winged Flying Snake, Salin regretted it greatly.
If that old woman did not have the Seal of the Six-Winged Flying Snake, he would not be afraid of her even if he was a 9th Rank Magic Shooter. At most, he would ask his teacher for help.
Sica also felt that something was wrong. No one knew that she was almost unaffected in this environment, and her vision was even better than Salin's. Carrie rushed towards the hexagonal magic array, obviously wanting to enter the ruins alone.
But Sica also saw the stone tablet that was a hundred meters tall, and the inscription on the black stone tablet.
Brother's Grave, Trespassers Fall Into Oblivion. There was a seal at the end, and nothing else was engraved.
Salin recognized this seal. Back when he had to pretend to be a member of the royal family, Rex had specially taught him about noble emblems. Emblems and seals were similar. This seal was the first symbol that Salin recognized.
It was the seal of the First Dynasty's emperor, the Glory King.
The founder of the First Dynasty was a Level-18 Magic Shooter who had once slaughtered eighteen gods of the same level. How could Salin not take such a person seriously?
This was not a ruin, but a grave, and a grave of the Giants.
There were no real Giants who were weak. Moreover, this Giant had been called a brother by the First Dynasty's founding emperor. Dragons would not call ants brothers. This dead Giant should be about as strong as the Glory King, right?
Carrie was too crazy. She actually ignored the Glory King's curse and wanted to rush into the grave.
This lunatic! Salin put away the Thunder Dragon Spear hatefully. There were still twelve Magic Shooters watching, and these Magic Shooters still did not know what had happened. But if he shot Carrie to death, they would definitely tell Ebola.
Carrie ran faster than the Sword Saint. Salin did not know how she borrowed the power of the earth element. In less than three seconds, Carrie had already bypassed the huge tombstone and arrived before the hexagonal magic circle.
This was the entrance to the grave. No one could stop her now. Jia Lin turned around and smiled at Salin. Then, she stepped into the hexagonal magic array.
"Leave here! Leave … "The grand voice continued to roar, but Salin did not feel anything. Carrie actually dared to go in. Did she think that she could resist the Glory King's curse?
Salin himself had the Destiny Puppet, but he was not confident that he could resist such a powerful curse. A Level-18 Magic Shooter had swept through hundreds of God Kingdoms. His seal was on the tombstone, looking down coldly at the people in the huge space.
Bang!
Bang bang …
From the space above, a huge number of things fell. Salin held up his Water Pattern Shield and called in the surviving soldiers. What fell from above were the Parasitic Puppets inside the Giants. There were tens of thousands of them, and Salin recognized their claws.
These puppets fell from the sky without any protection and were basically broken into pieces. The wreckage on the ground made Salin shudder. His Elemental Eyes saw clearly that these split puppets were using their claws to pick up the broken bodies and put them back together. When they were done, the Parasitic Puppets stood up and surrounded Salin.
