"These are the ruins of the ancient Sorcerers … As expected, they are different from the Sorcerers of today …"
In a flat area, Raman looked at the scenery around him with a look of amazement on his face.
Behind him, Mirdo and the other apprentices were standing next to him, their faces filled with shock.
The surroundings were enveloped by a golden light.
In the ruins that occupied a large area, a huge golden sun hung high in the sky, continuously giving off some sort of energy that illuminated the entire ruins.
The sun was extremely huge, and it was hundreds of meters away from the ruins. However, the boundless energy and incomparably terrifying aura could be clearly sensed, causing one's heart to tremble.
Facing such terrifying energy, even official Sorcerers were like ants. Their bodies and minds could not stop trembling, and there was no way they could resist it.
"What a terrifying power … what a shocking power …"
Looking at the incredibly huge sun above the ruins, Mai'er sighed in amazement, "Compared to the power of the ancient Sorcerers, the current Sorcerers are nothing.
"Perhaps only the Merson region, or even the central world that only exists in the legends, can have power comparable to this."
"Stop talking."
Raman was a little excited. His wrinkled face was filled with excitement as he looked up at the sun in the sky. "Since we're already here, let's think about how we're going to obtain the things left behind here."
"Mm, not bad."
Hearing this, Mai'er's expression became calm and cold again, "Let's go. Looking at the current situation, the core of this place should be under that sun."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the bright sun in the distance, and a trace of passion appeared in his eyes.
In the sky, the huge sun was still giving off light, but there was a light pillar connecting it. One end was connected to the sun, and the other was connected to the ground.
If there were no accidents, the other end of the light pillar should be the core of the ruins, and it was also the place where they would most likely obtain rewards.
Thinking about this, they walked forward.
As they continued forward, the surrounding golden light became more and more intense, and there was a unique power brewing within it.
"Something's not right. The energy particles in the surroundings are becoming thinner and thinner."
Standing here, Raman frowned, "My spiritual power is also being suppressed. If I cast spells here, the power will be greatly reduced."
At the side, Myrdo nodded in agreement.
This feeling had started when they entered the ruins, but it was not so obvious at the beginning.
But now, the surrounding energy particles were getting thinner and thinner, and the suppression of the surrounding environment had reached a terrifying level. Moreover, as they went deeper into the ruins, the suppression continued to intensify.
"This should be the protective measures of the ancient wizards."
Sensing the thinning energy particles around him, Mildo said in a low voice, "The spells of the Ancient Sorcerers are too powerful. So in order to protect some important places, they would often set up Anti-Magic Spell Formations to forcefully repel the energy particles in the area."
"It's said that this technology has been lost. Only some large wizard organizations can see it. I didn't expect to see one here."
He looked at the golden sun above his head and continued, "However, this also shows how important this place is. Things like Anti-Magic Spell Formations consume a lot of energy to set up. Even in the prosperous ancient times, if it wasn't for some special place, it would be impossible to set it up. "
"Looks like we have to be careful."
Raman's murky eyes scanned the surroundings, a rare trace of caution appearing in his eyes.
The more important a place was, the stronger the defenses would be. This was especially so for ruins left behind by the Ancient Sorcerers. There were many difficulties inside, and if they wanted to obtain enough, they would have to overcome many obstacles.
However, neither Raman nor Mirdo were afraid of this at all.
The path of a Sorcerer was filled with danger. Even an ordinary experiment could cause a backlash. It was impossible to not face any danger.
To be able to find a complete ruin was already a blessing. Since they had decided to explore the ruins, they would not give up just because of a little danger.
Moreover, as official Sorcerers, they were confident in their own abilities.
They walked forward slowly. At the end of the road, a few different paths appeared, separating the area.
"What do we do now?"
At this point, Raman glanced at Mai 'er, his eyes flickering.
"Do you want to split up?"
Myrdo was dressed in a red robe, and he looked at Raman with a cold smile, "This is a ruin left behind by the Ancient Sorcerers. The dangers here are enough to deal with an official Sorcerer. If we split up, we won't even know how we died."
After some discussion, they finally chose the path on the right and quickly moved forward.
After they left, a black-robed figure slowly walked out. His footsteps were light and did not make any sound.
"He chose the path on the right?"
Walking to the intersection, Adil looked a little hesitant as he looked at the roads that branched off in front of him.
Against two official Sorcerers, normal methods of tracking were completely useless.
Regardless of whether it was their aura or the radiation they emitted, they were all hidden. Unless there was a violent movement, he would not be able to detect them.
However, the acolytes that they had brought had successfully exposed their location, allowing Adil to catch up to them.
"Which path should I take?"
Standing on the spot and looking at the three paths ahead, Adil hesitated.
The reason why he had exposed the location of the ruins to Andrew and the others was because he was afraid that the ripples from entering the ruins would attract the attention of those two people, and he also wanted to use them as scouts.
After all, there were all sorts of dangers in the ancient ruins, and it would be risky for a mere official Sorcerer to enter alone.
If there were two pathfinders in front of him, he could wait for the other party to figure out the dangers along the way before he could act and snatch the final reward.
Even though this was his plan, some changes after entering the ruins had caught Adil off guard.
Reaching out his hand, Adil took out a bronze talisman from his bosom.
After entering the ruins, the bronze talisman had started to change. Not only did it give off a golden glow, it also seemed to be resonating with the sun in the sky. The image of the two-headed dragon on it was also changing, and the pair of originally black dragon eyes also gave off a glow, making it look like a living dragon.
Through the A.I. Chip, the talisman was enlarged, and a complicated circular map was revealed. On it, there was a faint white dot that was flashing, marking out Adil's current location.
What made Adil hesitate was that on the map, the three paths in front of him were also shown, each of them giving off a different glow.
The one on the far left was white, while the one in the middle was resplendent gold.
As for the last path, which was the one chosen by the two official Magi, it was a bloody red, as if it was a sign of something.
This caused Adil to hesitate.
From the current appearance of the ruins, the Magus organisation that had built the ruins had undoubtedly revered the colour gold, which was why they had built the entire ruins in a golden colour.
Blood usually represented danger, and this had never changed, be it in ancient times or now. However, with two official Magi leading the way, there was still some guarantee of safety.
On top of that, there were also Andrew and the others. All these reasons added together made Adil somewhat hesitant.
However, he did not hesitate for too long, and directly walked through the middle path.
After walking through a long path, a golden light suddenly blossomed in front of him.
In the midst of the golden light, Adil arrived at a spacious walkway.
On the walkway, a corpse lay in Silence. At this moment, it had already turned into a skeleton, and there was still a piece of cloth left on its body.
"Not an official Magus?"
After roughly examining the corpse, Adil furrowed his brows, a little doubtful.
This ruins was built in an extremely secretive manner, and the door was hidden in a deep space by the power of the ruins. Those below the rank of official Magus would not even be able to sense the door, let alone enter.
However, this corpse was indeed not an official Magus. From the analysis of the corpse, it was at most a level 3 acolyte.
[Analysis complete … Data simulation complete … Probability of level 3 acolyte: 94.1%, Race is a half-elf …]
At this moment, the A.I. Chip's robotic voice sounded in his mind again.
"Half-elf …"
Adil stared blankly for a moment, then continued to look at the corpse.
The skeleton of this corpse was indeed different from that of a normal human. Although it was not much different from a normal human, there were many minute differences, and it was somewhat similar to Adil's.
Previously, Adil did not notice it, but after the A.I. Chip's reminder, he immediately discovered this point.
"A half-elf acolyte."
This somewhat similar background made Adil feel that something was amiss, "Is it just a coincidence?"
The chances of a half-elf being born was very low. After so many years, apart from Adil himself, he had never seen any other half-elves. Now that one had appeared in this ruins, Adil could not help but feel that something was amiss.
"What if it's not a coincidence?"
This thought flashed through his mind, and Adil frowned. He then squatted down and looked at the remains of the corpse, wanting to see if he could find anything else.
The shape of this corpse was very conspicuous. At the chest area, there were quite a few bones that were broken, as if they were chopped off by something.
