Chapter 50 The Miracles of the Lost City-State and High-level Sealed Artifacts
In the evening of January 2, the Typhon quickly approached the waters near the city-state of Annock.
According to the location sensing that occurs every six hours, there are still 14 remaining selected people, and all of them have arrived nearby.
Griffith was wearing a robe, disguised and standing on the side of the ship. Under the gloomy sky, he saw a tall and precipitous huge black mountain in the distance on the desolate and lonely land. Dense clouds and mist seemed to be sprayed from the mountain, surrounding it.
, as if it has never stopped since ancient times.
As the Typhon got closer, Griffith realized how majestic and majestic this mountain was beyond the limits of human language. The ruins of the city-state of Annock were built on the undulating peaks and hills.
However, in the vast and terrifying land from the sea to the snow-capped peaks, there is no mountain that can compare with that black peak, as small as gravel.
The closer you get to this strange world, the more desolate the surrounding scenery becomes. Even the sea water becomes dead and there are no more swimming fish. This scene makes people's hearts beat suddenly faster, forming a feeling in their hearts.
An indescribable mental image. Under the gray black mountains, a world pregnant with madness is waiting for us, which makes people feel helpless and confused from the depths of their souls.
A certain ferocious aura lingers near the large and astonishing black mountain peaks, seeming to tear apart all outsiders who come here, spreading like wildfire on the grassland.
"Miss Laura," Neferty came to the boat accompanied by Alyosha and used a soft voice to pull Griffith out of confusion and confusion, "The elves ask you to go to the conference room. We are about to leave."
We’ve arrived at our destination.”
In order to avoid exposing his identity and being punished by the Arcane Council, Griffith still identified Neferty and the crew as Miss Laura de Lockhaft. He nodded: "I have caused you trouble along the way. Continue.
When you come down, stay near the sea and don't go near the land over there."
Neferty von Kwaimantha looked worried. She was invited as an alternative vehicle, but she did not play a role along the way. She looked towards the coast and murmured: "I feel that there is something there
A voice is calling me."
Griffith quickly said: "Don't pay attention to the vague babble, it is extremely dangerous."
"But, I have a feeling that my coming here is the guide of my destiny." Neferti stroked her long silver hair, confused and worried. "It seems that as long as I come here, I can know my secret and destiny."
.”
"Secret? Destiny?" Alyosha asked curiously, "What secret? What destiny?"
"I don't know either. But sometimes I have strange dreams, dreaming about scenes I have never seen before, in places I have never been," Neferti said, "I am there, I am far away
Look at yourself..."
A few minutes later, the four chosen members of the Typhon gathered in the conference room.
Amon gives everyone a pre-war briefing:
"So far, according to the information we have, the two allies around Prince Commodus, Aaron and Naira, both acted independently. They did not take the roundabout route like us and arrived here first. The chosen one, Baron Zeno, and him
Two of our allies landed on the coast a few kilometers away from us, and the location of the other two is unknown. Each of the above groups was supported and escorted by an unknown number of personnel.
"We were notified in advance that only the chosen ones can enter the ruins. However, detection found that there is dangerous psychic radiation in the city-state ruins. Creatures approaching there will irreversibly slide towards madness and mutation. The sky we hold
The Emblem of the Chosen itself can provide a powerful shield. As long as this shield exists, the barrier of unknown characteristics will protect us.
"In other words, if creatures other than the chosen one can be protected by the emblem, they can also enter the ruins. They may encounter other restrictions, but, at least for now, the conditions for entering the ruins are looser than the previously known rules.
.
"Our team has four chosen ones, and Miss Galadia and the Guardian hold 5 emblems. In other words, we have mastered nearly one-third of the 24 emblems.
"Whether it is in terms of the number of personnel, emblems or the composition of combat power, we have advantages, but we also have the risk of becoming the target of public criticism. According to the communications we intercepted, some of the selected people are discussing cooperation and targeting us."
"The fragile alliance," Erza said, tapping the spear beside her, "a painful lesson can cause them to start fighting among themselves. The real danger comes from the secrets hidden by Anok until now."
Griffith listened to the report carefully, but what Neferty had just said lingered in his mind. He had a feeling that there was an extremely disturbing danger in this girl who came as a backup vehicle.
Maybe it was a mistake to bring her here.
Perhaps because the Chosen One and Naira, the Hand of God, are her twin brothers, there may be bonds and connections between the two that the elves have not discovered.
"Since the residents of the city-state disappeared, it has become a no-man's land."
Erza said, touching the scroll and injecting psychic energy to make the details clearer.
Following her movements, a three-dimensional image of the ruins of Annock city-state rose up from the magic scroll on the table. There was a spherical cloud shrouded there, moving extremely fast, enough to make people imagine its violent roar.
"We have locked onto some areas where psychic signals are concentrated. The Anok city-state was very prosperous before its demise, and the old wealth seems to remain there. The deeper we go into the ruins, the stronger the signal becomes.
"The areas with the highest concentration of psychic signals are the Anok Senate and the inner city. There are rich enchanted items, psychic crystals and weapons there, which can provide supplies for our battles. There are also several places where psychic energy can be found in the outer city areas.
Crystals and sealed objects. Some of these sealed objects may be dangerous, so be careful to avoid them.
"There are some mysterious signals in the area outside the city and the river flowing through the inner city. We don't know what is hidden there. It may be lost items or some monsters."
Griffith looked at the miniature image carefully. Soon, he found some ant-like slow-moving signals in the outer area. They looked like people, but the number far exceeded the chosen ones.
"what are these?"
"There are often brave people who come here to hunt for treasures, mostly adventurers from the south and far away places," Erza said, holding up her Chosen One emblem. "However, without the protection of the emblem, they will be exposed to abnormal psychic energy."
Under the erosion, it won't take long for the mind to collapse, and the body to be like a ripened fruit. The flesh and blood is filled with unbearable twisted energy, and most of them will disintegrate within a few days. The remaining survivors will
Become mutated monsters. The main enemies of our demon hunters are these poor creatures."
Galadia opened a scroll: "Our goal, the form in which the Chosen One's miracle will appear is unknown, but as long as it appears, we will know it.
"According to records in Canaan, the final miracle of the Sacrifice of the Chosen One once appeared in the form of a Holy Grail overflowing with flames or a luxurious Lord's Ring. It is a way to realize any wish. The miracle will be attracted by the emblem in our hands, and the power of the emblem
The stronger it is, the closer the miracle is. However, the arrival of the miracle itself is also affected by other factors, which requires us to investigate and accept the test.
"In addition, Canaan reminds us that in this operation, in addition to the miracles, there are several lost sealed artifacts that are the treasures of the Anok city-state. They are powerful weapons and weapons of the 'Epic' and 'Legendary' levels.
Objects and psychic ripples show purple or golden light, with different characteristics and danger levels. We can search for them or avoid them carefully."
Speaking of which, Galadia took out a few records and sent them to everyone:
"I have information about high-level sealed objects that may appear here.
"Anok was once a prosperous magic and naval city-state, and the properties of these sealed objects are also related to this. The few known ones are
"The Crown of the Sea Admiral has the power to summon ships and legendary creatures in the sea, enhance their speed and power, and even control whirlpools and storms to destroy ships.
"The Scepter of Dominance improves the holder's physique, strength, agility, perception and spiritual attributes in all aspects, giving it the ability to communicate with non-human beings such as souls, legendary creatures, mythical creatures, etc. If a powerful holder can exert
The true power of the dominator scepter is enough to control the dragon and Behemoth.
"Curse Breastplate can apply a chain of negative effects consisting of slowness, curse, disease, weakness and misfortune to all enemies within a radius of no less than 200 yards. The intensive bad state will last for at least fifteen minutes.
, causing the enemy troops to be in extreme confusion.
"Fountain of Magic, saves spell chanting and skill activation time, reduces spell casting cooldown by 70%, and quickly replenishes spiritual energy or magic power.
"The bottle of holy blood is also said to be the Philosopher's Stone, which has the power to bring the dead back to life."
Everyone's eyes showed wonder. Erza was also a little moved, but she quickly calmed down: "Everyone, please note that the power of sealed objects is not only a beneficial effect. Inhuman gifts and miracles are often accompanied by nightmarish tragedies and curses.
.The power of resurrecting the dead can even induce humans to lose their minds. Before the body can live forever, the mind has already decayed."
