Blergh!
Han Dong, who had just walked out of the stone slab secret room, was about to say something.
Suddenly, a sense of nausea welled up in his heart, and a large amount of black seawater poured all over the ground.
However, after Han Dong's Physical Filtration, the black seawater no longer had any polluting properties … He just needed to clean the ground.
To avoid dirtying the parchment.
Commander Hugo immediately ordered one of the Knights of the Secret Word to go forward and retrieve it through a container specially used to preserve cultural relics.
"The node pattern and the correct order of the stone slab text have been copied by Nicholas through the method of [Dream Communication].
After my personal verification, there are no problems.
This matter will be recorded as a 'personal contribution' and recorded in the file. "
As soon as this was said.
This group of archaeologists who had worked in the Knights of the Secret Word for decades felt a wave of emotions in their hearts.
Each of them looked at the new knight who had just arrived at the secret library through their goggles with approval.
In this way, all of their workload would be greatly reduced, and the potential dangers of deciphering the stone slab would all be reduced to zero … At the thought of being able to get a month's leave, everyone touched the sparse hair on their heads with relief.
Knight Charlie, who was standing not far away, sighed. "This kid is really interesting … Sir, you have good taste."
However, Mr. Black And White, who was originally behind Knight Charlie, had already left.
"Nicholas, thank you for your hard work … This matter will also be counted as a contribution to the 'eve of the expedition,' and the corresponding points will be added to your account.
Since your contribution has reduced the overall workload of the secret library, I will allow you to enjoy the privilege of 'work free' during the official start of the expedition.
Of course, if you have nothing to do, you will also be allowed to stay in the secret library to work or learn how to decipher the stone slabs. "
"Okay … I'll stay in the secret library for a few days first. I plan to learn the basic essentials of deciphering the stone slabs.
During the expedition, some ancient stone slabs should also be unearthed. At that time, I might be able to help.
In addition, the [Female Mummy] is still in the secret library, right? I plan to make use of her as well. "
Commander Hugo made an OK gesture, took the parchment that Han Dong had deciphered, and prepared to head to the comprehensive deciphering studio.
He still had to continue deciphering the Slate of the Old King. When the time came, he would have to go to the Council to provide the deciphered documents and participate in the details of the Great Expedition.
He only gave Han Dong a 'very casual' look before he quickly left.
The matter came to an end.
Han Dong, who had returned to his private office alone, stood in the narrow shower room and washed off the black seawater on his body. He held the completely consumed conch in his hand, his thoughts fluctuating.
[Raft], [Seawater], and [Black Woman].
The memory of deciphering the stone slab was very strange.
Han Dong didn't have any conflict with the slate's consciousness in the dream.
On the contrary.
With the combined efforts of the two, the raft floated to a nameless island. The two even lived on the island for a long time.
Looking for caves, building houses, looking for food and fresh water sources.
Later, in the process of searching for food, a conflict broke out between them and the natives on the island … They were not ordinary humans. The natives believed in the existence of the deep sea and carried out a rather strange self-sacrifice.
After sacrificing one's own limb, the corresponding part would grow a brand-new limb with deep-sea characteristics.
After the cooperation of the two, they finally cleared the entire island.
After everything settled down and the two established a certain foundation of a relationship.
When Han Dong tried to ask the black woman about the 'secret text' … the woman corresponding to the slate's consciousness directly turned into black seawater and drilled into Han Dong's body through his mouth.
All the pictures and text sequences appeared in Han Dong's mind.
The dream was also interrupted at this time.
Splash … Cold water poured down from the top of his head. There was a problem here that Han Dong couldn't understand.
"Captain Hugo said that the slate had fallen on the intangible level because of the information of the old king recorded on it … Its anthropomorphization and the creation of an independent consciousness were all related to the old king recorded in the text.
In other words …
The black woman in the dream was, to a certain extent, the replica consciousness of the old king.
Why would she take the initiative to be willing to give me such important information?
It shouldn't be … This was information related to her own [Weakness]. Even if we went through difficulties together in the dream for a few days, our relationship could only be described as good friends, right?
During this time, neither the yellow seal nor the sea seal appeared.
Could it be that there's something wrong with my head? This old king … knows something about my head? There's not enough information at the moment to make too many inferences. Let's leave it at that for the time being. "
The question remained in his heart.
Because he had a good sleep between the slates, he was full of energy.
Han Dong continued to work hard for eight hours, helping Knight Charlie complete all the work that he had been given.
Just as he was about to sleep, a letter was delivered to Han Dong's office.
"Hmm, a letter for me?"
There was a seal of the knights on the letter.
[Due to assisting the Secret Word Knights in deciphering the important old king's slate (attached -07, highly activated, severely limited in deciphering), expedition eve points + 50.
Now personal points have reached 100 (full). Continue to complete contribution-type events. The extra points will be exchanged for copper coins at a rate of 1: 20.]
"I actually got full marks … That's good.
I can take care of my personal affairs in the remaining two months.
Let's not talk about some basic work in the Secret Word Knights. I still have to go to the port and build a brand new laboratory.
Since the secret museum has reopened, I think the investor should be free. I have to take the time to visit the Steam Knights … I hope everything goes well. "
…
A month had passed since "expedition eve."
Outside the city.
East of the Holy City, at the border of the Geen Forest 100 kilometers away.
Huff huff huff …
A knight squad was fleeing on foot. Behind them was a rather terrifying existence. Wherever it went, the ground would be turned into a graveyard with cross-shaped tombstones.
The knight squad was called "Blue Illusion," Gold-level.
Currently, they were carrying out a long-distance investigation mission — [Mysterious Corpse Hider]. It was one of the missions that Han Dong's squad had selected.
The mission involved an individual Hybrid Demon hidden in a remote, nameless mountain village.
What was strange was that in the information given by the investigation mission, the Corpse Hider's level had reached [Mature Hybrid Demon]. However, it did not seem to have any affiliation and acted independently.
As long as there was any life, including other Hybrid Demons, that approached the nameless mountain village, it would be buried alive.
When this squad investigated the village, they uncovered a conspiracy that could threaten the Holy City.
The Corpse Hider was extremely strong. Moreover, the individuals buried alive in the mountain village would provide the Corpse Hider with an almost unsolvable rebirth ability. They could not be killed at all.
With the strength of this squad, they could not kill it directly. They were even completely suppressed by the Corpse Hider.
In the end, they could only choose to escape and report the investigation to the Holy City.
Just as they arrived at the carriage stop in the Geen Forest.
They found that the mechanical horses had been completely buried alive.
"Carriage … Why!? Could it be that the "buried alive area" has already expanded to the Geen Forest?! No wonder they know our every move like the back of their hand.
Evie … Can you still hold on? "
"Yes …"
In the squad, a female knight from the Holy Knights was attacked directly by the Corpse Hider. A miniature cross-shaped tombstone was stuck in her waist and could not be removed.
Currently, she was being carried by a Hell Knight. Her face was pale, and her situation was very bad.
"We still can't contact the Holy City … Damn it."
The four-man squad took a type of energy recovery potion every once in a while and quickly traveled through the forest.
No matter how fast they sped up, the pressure behind them did not decrease.
A black shadow carrying a coffin and embedded with iron nails was always following behind them. They could not get more than a hundred meters away from them.
Unknowingly, they had already traveled more than 40 kilometers through the forest by foot.
Caw …
The sound of a Crowmen could be heard.
A dense group of Crowmen appeared on a tree branch a few hundred meters away. A little deeper, it was a clearing in the forest.
"Crowmen!? How did we get here?
The clearing in front should be the [Stuart Manor] where the incident with the old king happened a few years ago. We can only take a gamble and hope that these Crowmen can buy us some time. "
