"My friend's name is Ruto, he is a gold mining mage." Andri introduced.
Nugget Mage, Aaron also heard Andre talk about it just now.
They are a group of people who are committed to following the steps of the Heritage Chronicle and pursuing the truth and treasures buried by history, and most of them are magicians.
To put it bluntly, they are just as obsessed with digging graves as the people in the Heritage Chronicle.
The purpose may be to explore history, but of course it is more to find treasures and obtain gifts from ancestors to soar into the sky.
In the Broken Gold Era, there are so many legacies that can be excavated. The secret treasures from distant times that were not excavated until the destruction of the Heritage Era, plus the legacy of the destroyed Heritage Era itself, are buried under the barren earth.
The possibilities are exciting.
About six hundred years ago, in order to quickly replenish their own strength, a group of people began to follow the style of the legacy records of their ancestors and started digging.
The results were quite gratifying. After all, they were the first people to eat crabs at that time, and they could almost get it right every time they dug it.
The legacy of digging human graves has become the target of digging, which is obviously another joke from hell.
The first group of people ate so much that they soon set off the first wave of gold mining craze among the human race. But at that time, most of the people who had the ability to dig deep into dangerous situations were magicians, so the name "Gold Digging Mage" became
It began to spread and gradually began to be recognized.
Compared with orthodox professionals, the proficiency and experience of the Nugget Mage are more valued than pure strength.
It's an amazing profession.
Alon was mistaken for a gold digging mage when he spoke "Ancient Golden Language" before. This is because Ancient Golden Language is an ancient language from a distant era that has been recorded in the Heritage Chronicles.
Although the pronunciation does not seem to be very different from the common language of modern humans, some pronunciations are quite obscure, and writing and reading on paper require magic power, which is called the "secret language".
It is very difficult to learn, and apart from being used in special rituals and excavating heritage from a long time ago, its practicality is not very high, so only a few of the gold digging mages can learn to use it.
Andri's friend is a gold nugget mage. The gold nugget mage is not a group that can stay in one place peacefully for a long time. Apparently this friend named Ruto has discovered some secret worth keeping.
"However, although he is a gold digging mage, he is not a lone walker, but a gold digging mage who comes from the orthodox gold digging school. The difference between this kind of gold digging mage and a lone walker is that they are more obsessed with some hidden secrets, and
Some groups will work together on a gold nugget project," Andry said.
"Mr. Ruto also has his own subject, right?" Aaron said after hearing about the school.
"Yes, and his subject is the Secret Altar." Andri's voice gradually became softer, and finally he spoke almost close to Alon's side.
"Secret altar?" Aaron raised his eyebrows slightly. Speaking of altar, wasn't the coordinate where they landed just now an altar?
"Yes, it is a series of altars that appeared on the Golden Continent at an unknown time. The characteristics are stone pillars and mysterious runes. I haven't been to the Black Continent yet and I don't know if they exist there, but there are records in the Mage Tower.
According to incomplete statistics, there are a total of four hundred and sixty-five secret altars on the Golden Continent!" Andri was a little excited when talking about this well-known unsolved mystery, but he still restrained his trembling hands from scratching.
Aaron's clothes.
"Elaborate." Aaron was very interested.
"Although I would like to go into details, I don't know much about these altars. I only know the records of the Mage Tower. Some of these altars seem to have existed since the beginning of the Heritage Chronicle. Some people speculate that they come from a long time ago, but later, the new
Altars are still being produced continuously, so this theory is self-defeating." Andri said.
"Since the altar was created, has anyone seen how the altar appeared? It can't appear out of thin air." Aaron said.
Hearing this, Andri showed a hint of pride, as if he had expected Aaron to ask such a question, and said: "Hey, don't tell me, the altar just appeared out of thin air." Aaron felt that this person was popularized by others.
I must have done a similar Q&A to this one, and now I am showing it off to others.
"No one knows when the altar appeared. It was as if the local people were suddenly confused, and then the altar appeared. The style was the same, revealing an ancient and mysterious meaning, as if it had been there a long time ago.
Same thing." Andri proudly shared information that he had obviously heard from others.
"Then who named the 'Secret Trust'?" Aaron's words accurately hit a key point.
"Ah? I don't know about this either." As expected, the person in front of him scratched his head and laughed.
"This is how it was described in the records at the beginning of the Heritage Chronicle, and there are actually many names for it, such as the unknown altar, the mysterious altar, the ancient altar, and so on. If you really want to know the origin, you might go to the Mage Tower and ask.
."Andre said.
Aaron nodded, having one more reason to go to the main tower of the Mage Tower.
"So who is your friend?" Aaron continued the topic.
"Ruto, the master who introduced him is a member of the Mage Tower Nugget School and has devoted himself to the research of the Secret Altar for many years. Ruto inherited the mantle and was also brought into this subject. Although I told him
We basically don’t expect to solve the mystery that even the Chronicle of Heritage has failed to solve, but he seems to be obsessed with this thing." Andri said, with confusion and a hint of complaint in his tone.
It seems that the story between the two is quite rich.
Aaron thought.
Andri continued: "Actually, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Since we said goodbye five years ago, we could still communicate with each other through the magic network. But after he came here three years ago, the magic network couldn't cover him, so he had to use letters.
We have been in contact with each other. When he decided to settle here, I was shocked, but his attitude was quite firm. He said that he felt that he had discovered something, that he had caught a hint of a mysterious and mysterious feeling, which was something I couldn't understand."
As he spoke, he smiled nonchalantly and said: "But he didn't mention it much in the letters for the next three years. I thought he hit a wall and ran away in despair, but I didn't expect that he was actually still here.
"
"Didn't you ask him some questions?"
"I asked circumstantial questions in letters, but he avoided them all. To be honest, it's hard for me to imagine what it would be like to stay in such a remote place for three years, but people of the Nuggets school are all paranoid.
, it’s hard to say that all mages have the same virtues, so I can’t say much about him.” Andri shrugged.
"Humph!" Suddenly, a muffled groan sounded from very close to them.
"Hey!" Andri jumped up like a cat frightened by the cucumber behind him, and jumped up and hid behind Alon.
Aaron looked sideways. In the dark alley beside them, an old man wearing a simple black coat was sitting in a wheelchair. His somewhat cloudy eyes were unexpectedly sharp. After glaring at Andri for a moment, this
A look that gave people an ominous feeling wandered around Alon, Yue Tomb and Xing Liuli, and finally glared at Andri before slowly withdrawing.
The taste is so strong.
Aaron frowned slightly.
They walked quickly through the alley, away from the old man.
"I heard bad things about my town." Xing Liuli squinted at Andri with a hint of a bad smile.
I don’t know whether it’s because Xing Liuli’s face is so beautiful even with a wicked smile, or because of the embarrassment of being exposed for saying bad things, Andri’s cheeks turned red: “I’m telling the truth, it should be noon now, look at what this town looks like
Is it what it looks like at noon? This alley is even more eerie."
Xing Liuli covered her mouth, put down her hand, and her smile faded, returning to her cold demeanor on the surface.
When Andre saw that Xing Liuli had no intention of responding, he looked at Alon.
Aaron smiled kindly and continued to gather information: "Don't worry, let's continue talking about Mr. Ruto. Do you know what Mr. Ruto is looking for you for? Is he in any trouble?"
"The letter stated that he had been treated unfairly by the townspeople here, and was involved in a groundless accusation two weeks ago." Andri straightened out the mage's robe that was slightly scattered after being frightened just now.
"Charge?"
"I heard it was a murder case, and the deceased was also a foreigner." Andri said softly.
On the quiet and dark streets, only Andri's voice echoed softly and then disappeared into the mist, making the listener feel an inexplicable chill.
