Law was rendered speechless by Jin's answer, but this problem was solved.
Jin would agree with the idea that one more friend meant one more path, and after Law showed some signs, they could get closer to each other, which would be beneficial for maintaining a friendly relationship in the future.
Whether it was a cooperative relationship, an ordinary friend, or even a confidant relationship, there were only benefits and no disadvantages for him to continue to be friends with Jin.
Luo Hejin was curious about what was in the stone box. It might be an important clue, but Law could not get rid of the thoughts now, let alone open the stone box. He could only put the stone box aside for the time being and make plans after leaving this place.
The Black Cat did not swallow the stone box. Instead, it held it with both hands and cursed Law in a low voice in the corner.
The stone statue in the sacrificial hall had no value worth exploring. The two shifted their focus to the ancient text on the ground and the stone carvings on the wall.
The text was obscure and difficult to understand, so they studied the paintings on the wall first.
Compared with the stone carvings in the ruins outside, the content of the stone carvings in the sacrificial hall was completely out of the ordinary. The overall style could be said to be unconstrained and as exaggerated as possible.
However, it was also this exaggerated style of performance that made the content of the painting show a clear tension.
Paintings of huge monsters, paintings of hunting fierce beasts, paintings of purifying human sacrifices with flames, paintings of worshiping corpses in a circle, paintings of Hollow wrapped in bandages, paintings of Hollow entering the body of a huge monster and causing it to fall down and die …
Luo Hejin and Law walked in circles in the hall, looking at the paintings on the wall while taking pictures with their phones.
The meaning of the paintings was more vivid and specific than the ancient text that could not be fully interpreted. After looking around, they had a general understanding of the sacrificial culture of the Selbo people, as well as Hollow and those huge monsters.
Among all the paintings, Law was more concerned about the paintings of Hollow and those huge monsters entangling. They were paintings that were connected, and the process of how Hollow made the huge monsters bow their heads could be seen.
Finally, there was even a painting of the Selbo people worshiping Hollow.
According to Nitro, the creatures in the Darkness Continent were extremely huge. Over there, humans were like ants. In terms of size, they were ants in the true sense of the word.
However, the five types of disasters that humans had encountered in the Darkness Continent were all existences that tended to be normal in size. These disasters all possessed indescribable strange abilities, just like the Void on the island.
In the face of these incomparably huge creatures, these existences could still occupy a territory and survive, most likely because of their strange abilities.
Law had seen with his own eyes how the Hollow attacked its target. As its name suggested, it was an invisible disaster, a non-living body without a physical body. It was very similar to the biochemical weapons created by humans.
In theory, it was indeed easy for Voids to deal with creatures that were countless times larger. Even if they could not kill the target immediately, they could slowly nibble away at it.
If they were to set foot in the Darkness Continent in the future, those massive creatures that could not be measured by common sense would be one of the threats. They could refer to Void's method of dealing with the massive creatures.
When he thought of this question, Law unconsciously thought of Sambucca.
Jin saw that Law was thinking and did not disturb him. Instead, he laid on the ground and checked on Cerberus.
When it came to ancient culture, he had dabbled in a wide range, but he wasn't proficient in it. He was able to recognize that it was written in Serbo, but it was difficult for him to translate it.
After looking at the time for a while, Jin felt his head hurt a little, so he took a picture with his phone.
There was no need for him to interpret it now. He could also take a picture and let a professional interpret it later. There were also Ancient Book Hunters in the Association who specialized in linguists and translators.
When Law broke free from his thoughts, he saw Jin lying on the ground without caring about his image. He moved carefully and checked the ancient text on the ground.
After coming to this underground space, Law could easily see Jin's attitude towards the ruins. He had an extremely proper attitude towards archaeology. In the process of exploring the truth, he was careful not to destroy these things that had been left behind by the precipitation of time.
Thinking of this, Law subconsciously looked at the rubber gloves on his hands that had a strong airtight seal. This was put on at Jin's request.
Then, he also leaned on the ground and kept touching the ancient text on the ground with his hands. However, the white smoke text did not react at all. If it wasn't for the choice prompt given when he touched the resentment, he would have thought that the white smoke text had run out of battery.
He didn't know anything about these ancient texts, and he didn't know if Culolo understood them, so he could only take pictures first.
After a while, Law took pictures of all the places meticulously, and so did Jin, but his movements were much slower than Law's because he was trying to interpret and take pictures.
Law saw that Jin was in a state of concentration, very similar to Sambika's work, so he didn't disturb Jin.
He went to the side, picked up his mobile phone and looked through the photos taken, to make sure the clarity of each one. After all, Devil Island was taken over by the State and it was not easy to come here.
"It's barely acceptable to rely on the illumination of the flashlight alone."
Law whispered to himself, picked a picture at random and sent it to Culolo, then put away his mobile phone and saw the Black Cat holding the stone box with both hands. He immediately wondered: "You can swallow it first, you don't have to hold it in your hand."
Black Cat replied angrily: "I don't need you to tell me. It's because I can't swallow it that I'm holding it in my hand. "
"Oh?" Law was surprised, thinking that Black Cat couldn't swallow anything.
"This resentment is too strong. If I swallow it, I will be affected." Black Cat explained.
"I see."
Law nodded and focused his attention on the stone statue of Hollow again.
He couldn't understand the ancient texts. In the painting on the wall, he could refer to the painting of worshipping the corpse, because the corpse's eyes were dark and empty.
The information he had was still too little to connect the corpses outside with the Hollow that appeared on the island, but there was still a little gain.
Law's eyes moved and fell on the stone box in Black Cat's hand. He vaguely felt that if he absorbed the resentment on it, he could probably break through the 60% mark.
After waiting patiently for a long time, Jin finally finished and got up from the ground.
Law asked: "How is it? Did you decipher anything? "
Jin sighed and shook his head: "No, I have to find a professional."
"Is that so …" Law was slightly disappointed. Without Bai Yan's words, he couldn't decipher it.
"I know an Ancient Text Hunter in the Association. She has strong professional knowledge. Maybe she can decipher part of the meaning." Jin said.
Law nodded and suggested: "Let's go to the nearby houses and have a look."
"Okay." Jin agreed.
The two walked out of the sacrificial hall and went to the surrounding buildings that were better preserved.
Time passed. Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.
The two searched the nearby houses. Other than taking a lot of photos, there was no substantial gain. However, there were more and more stone carvings about Hollow. It could be seen that there seemed to be an unknown relationship between the Selbos and Hollow.
That was a disaster. How could they coexist with humans?
If this was possible, maybe there were still humans living on the Dark Continent.
After working for half a day, Luo Hejin stopped and sat on a collapsed stone pillar. He picked up the purified water and compressed biscuits that he carried with him and ate them.
Faint blue light shone in all directions. The surroundings were full of corpses. The cold aura clung to their skin like maggots. It was lucky that the two of them could eat it.
While eating the compressed biscuits, the two of them took the opportunity to think about today's harvest. For a moment, there was only the sound of chewing in the underground space. It was terrifying.
At this moment, the ground shook without warning. Luo Hejin and Law put down the compressed biscuits immediately and looked at each other.
Above their heads, countless fluorescent particles fell from clusters of crystals and floated down, as if forming a different kind of bright starry sky.
"Earthquake?" Law looked up at the fluorescent particles floating in the sky.
Deep in the underground space and encountering a situation similar to an earthquake was a very dangerous situation. However, the two of them were very calm.
The ground shook for a few seconds and then stopped. But after a few seconds, it started shaking again and again.
