Seeing that Elwyn was really studying the Sun Obelisk, the Sprite called Rafael let out a disdainful sneer.
He and the other Sprites were doubtful of Elwyn's abilities and mocked the Pendulum for hiring him.
The Pendulum and Rafael argued, but they did not reveal the details of Elwyn's origins, such as the fact that he was Nicole Lemour's student, and that it was Lemour and Dumbledore who had recommended him. It was unknown whether the Pendulum was disdainful or did not want to expose Elwyn's abilities.
On the other hand, Rafael looked at the Pendulum and could not come up with anything. He said proudly that he had hired a powerful Alchemist from Italy and wanted to call her over to compete with Elwyn.
Elwyn was not interested in competing at all. He was studying the Sun Obelisk.
He had been too far away and could not see it clearly.
Now that he was closer, he could clearly see that the spots on the Sun Obelisk seemed messy, but they were distributed in a certain pattern. They were spread out from the red jade pillar in the center, and even if some spots were separated, there would still be a lighter reddish-black area in between.
If one did not look closely, they would not be able to discover it.
Elwyn took another step forward and carefully examined the markings on the Sun Obelisk.
This was definitely not a coincidence. Elwyn raised his head and observed the expressions of the other Wizards around him.
This was definitely not a coincidence. Elwyn raised his head and observed the expressions of the other Wizards around him.
Other than him, no one else seemed to have noticed this.
They were all looking at the jade markings at the top of the Sun Obelisk, or the ancient Magical Text and diagrams on the Sun Obelisk. They wanted to find some useful information from them.
Putting aside the jade markings, the ancient Magical Text and diagrams were profound and complicated, and Yang Ling could not understand what they meant.
Elwyn only took a glance and stopped studying them.
He was sure that he could not understand them. It was beyond his abilities, and there was no way he could decipher the magic engraved on them.
But unlike the ancient Magical Text, the information he had just discovered was extremely important.
Perhaps it would reveal the secrets of the three obelisks from an unexpected angle.
The Sun Obelisk was littered with scarlet-black spots that looked like bloodstains. The Red Crystal Pillar at the center of the Sun Obelisk, as well as the region between the two, had traces left behind by the evaporation of the dark red liquid.
What did these unusual places represent?
Elwyn stared at the red and black spots on the stele and fell into deep thought for a moment, his heartbeat gradually increasing.
He thought of a possibility, a terrifying possibility!
These three obelisks were not used to show off their glory, but were indeed Magical Gears.
But probably no one would have thought that they were the symbol of impurity, hiding behind them a terrible evil that no one knew about.
The reddish-black spots on the main body of the stele were not the texture of the stone itself, but the marks left behind by an external object that had once been infused into the stele. Perhaps it was red paint, Magical Energy, or even fresh blood!
Of course, this was only his guess. He wanted to see what the other two obelisks looked like.
Passing through the crowd, Elwyn looked at the Moon Obelisk and Star Obelisk on the other side.
The Moon Obelisk was slightly smaller than the Sun Obelisk, and its height was also about ten feet lower.
There were also many red crystals on the stone pillar of the main body of the stele, but they did not form a straight pillar.
The red crystals were slanted left and right at a certain angle, their ends connected to each other, dividing the Moon Obelisk into many irregular regions.
The top of the red crystals touched the Moon symbol, and the bottom extended all the way to the ground.
There was no need to look closely to know that the red and black spots on the Moon Obelisk were definitely centered around these crystals.
As for the last obelisk, it was the most unique of the three, and it was also the shortest.
Or, more accurately, it was a group of obelisks formed by many obelisks.
The tallest one was only about half the height of the Sun Obelisk, and above it was a symbol of stars.
Around this obelisk, there were many small obelisks that looked like obelisks.
Among them, the shortest one was not even as tall as Elwyn.
But this was not his focus. Elwyn was looking for what he was looking for on these obelisks.
The Star Obelisk was also covered in red spots, but there were no rules to be found. Unlike the Sun Obelisk and Moon Obelisk, the Star Obelisk did not have a red crystal pillar, but the smaller obelisks around it had tips made of red crystals …
Obviously, the magic on these three obelisks operated in different ways.
"Elwyn, what do you think these red crystal pillars mean?" Lavier asked, coming closer. "Normal obelisks don't have these things on them."
"I haven't figured it out yet, but it's obviously unusual," Elwyn said.
He was afraid of scaring Lavier, so he did not say his guess.
"Those wizards all think that this is a part of alchemy," Lavier said. "Don't they often use crystals in alchemy? Wizards often use crystals to conduct or store magic, don't they? "
"Yes, there is such a saying!" Elwyn nodded.
Crystals were very common magic materials, and red crystals had other special meanings.
They were indeed very common in alchemy, whether it was to create alchemy items or to convert substances.
It was said that a large number of crystals were needed to create Sorcerer's Stones, but what did that have to do with the obelisks in front of him?
"I heard other wizards talking about it just now. Those ancient Egyptian wizards might be planning to use these crystal pillars to inject magic into the markings on the obelisks, which are in the shape of the sun, moon, and stars, to activate the hidden magic," Lavier said in a low voice. Lavier lowered his voice and said, "They are discussing how to infuse magic into the crystal. You should think about it too. Don't let those fairies look down on you!"
Elwyn did not care if the fairies looked down on him at all. He thought about the guess that Lavier had heard.
Inject magic into the crystals directly? That was possible, but how exactly would they do it?
If these wizards had unrefined Sorcerer's Stones, they could do it.
But he was sure that they did not.
Elwyn did not see where the Sorcerer's Stones were placed. Could it be the magic altar in the middle of the three obelisks?
He looked in that direction. In the middle was an area paved with green jade.
There was a slight bulge in the center, which was carved with complicated magic runes and patterns of the sun, moon, and stars.
It seemed to be connected to the three obelisks, but it was definitely not used to place the Sorcerer's Stones.
Elwyn had seen how ancient warlocks used the Sorcerer's Stones in the ruins of the Forbidden Forest Swamp.
The "Silence" spell and magic altar there were completely different from the one in front of him.
Since the Sorcerer's Stones could not be used, how could they inject magic into the crystals?
But Elwyn agreed that these red crystals were probably used to transmit other things.
