Episode 1 Martial Arts Master Chapter 35 The Frightening Hourglass
No one was in the mood to talk. In order to divert the feeling of despair that was gradually increasing, Shen Zhimo asked casually: "Old magician, if you really die here, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
"Don't call me an old bastard." Tyreseer looked at him with her beautiful eyes and asked, "What about you? What else do you wish for?"
When Shen Zhimo heard this, he was stunned for a moment. After his parents died, he gave up the idea of becoming an official. He lived in the world and studied martial arts for self-protection. He had never been close to women in his life, and he didn't have any special friends. He was confused and passed away.
Every day counts as one day, and he never thinks about pursuing any wishes. He murmurs: "What else can I wish for? Of course, it is to accompany my parents and be filial to them, but can that be realized?"
There is no word for "filial piety" in the Samur language. He said it in Chinese. Teresir was at a loss. Seeing his sadness, he just said that he was in a desperate situation and was in a bad mood. He just expressed his feelings. He himself was silent for a while.
, then pretended to be casual and said: "Actually... I am the High Priest of Moon Goddess Grace in the Kingdom of Dark Night. After the orc war ended twenty years ago, my abilities were sealed, so I chose a life of self-exile in the human kingdom.
Traveling, pursuing the truth of the universe.”
Shen Zhimo had no idea what kind of glory and status the "High Priest of Moon God's Grace" represented. He expected that there must be a thrilling story in it, so he just said lightly and said: "That's not bad. In that case, your wish is the truth."
Already?"
"Well, I once received a message from the Moon God that there is a person who can break my seal. To this end, I contacted all the well-known scholars, magicians, swordsmen, assassins, warriors, paladins, and religious clergy in the mainland."
Shen Zhimo was very clever and could understand everything clearly, and said, "Then you met me a few days ago."
Tyreseer's eyes were shining with strange brilliance, and she looked at him without blinking, and said: "I travel the whole world and seal my own abilities. I will never take those ignorant people to insult me or scold me. I will never take it to heart."
, in my opinion, they are just as small and ridiculous as grasshoppers, so they are not worth caring about. In fact, this is also the spiritual asceticism that my teacher taught me. Passing by the port of Kuzeskal, in the tavern, you helped me teach me a lesson.
Those people were just ordinary things, nothing, just... when you beat them, I could feel a wonderful power coming from your body, which triggered a spiritual resonance that I had not experienced in decades.
, even my nerves couldn't suppress the trembling at that time. This was the key to lifting the seal. From that moment on, I decided to stay with you until the seal was lifted."
Shen Zhimo thought to himself: "Hey, what a joke. This bastard thinks I am the one who can break the seal, but why does she think so? I don't even know what a seal is. If she wasn't in a desperate situation, she wouldn't
You told me this for no reason, and with this person’s understanding of magic, it seems there is really no way out.” But seeing that she finally told the truth, she no longer had the same suspicion as before.
The two of them stopped talking and walked around two corners without a clue, just to vent their depressed emotions. Little did they know that there was no way out despite the mountains and rivers, and there was a village with dark trees and bright flowers. Everything in the world had a definite destiny in all the confusion, and everything suddenly became clear before their eyes.
Cheerful, a spacious hall is within easy reach.
No matter how hard Shen Zhimo practiced for many years, his expression did not change even after the Taishan collapsed in front of him. At this time, he couldn't help but his heart was pounding and he said, "Could it be that God couldn't bear to abandon me and left a way out?"
Terry Hill was extremely calm: "Let's take a look first and then talk."
This hall is a large circular hall that can accommodate thousands of people. It has a spiral dome and dozens of large columns. It is surrounded by hundreds of passages and exits, extending in all directions. The passage they came out of is just one of them. Each entrance has
An electric current shot in. The pillars and walls were also covered with dense incantations. In the center was a hexagonal altar. All the electric currents converged on the altar, forming a huge ball of light.
The sound of electric current crackled and was deafening, the pillars were shaking, dust and gravel were constantly falling from the ceiling, and the huge light ball emitted overwhelming energy. You didn't need to be specifically awakened by Terry Hill, you could figure it out with your asshole, this must be magic.
The central organ of the formation is located. As soon as the two stepped in, the invisible energy stirred their hair to fly, and the surface skin squirmed. The cloth clothes were torn apart inch by inch, turned into pieces, and then became focal.
Stinky dust.
Under the light ball, there is a gourd-shaped object about half a person tall. It uses an indescribable metal as a support. The core is transparent. The upper and lower ends are of the same size, but the middle is very narrow. The shiny powder on the upper end is along the
The thin neck flows down to the bottom, and more than half of it has already flowed.
Terrihill struggled to resist the erosion of energy on her body, and asked in surprise: "What is that?"
"Hourglass." Shen Zhimo recognized it at a glance as an instrument for measuring time. In the Yuan Dynasty, a folk craftsman Zhan Xiyuan created the "five-wheel hourglass" with sophisticated and complicated craftsmanship. Later, it was spread to the West, but few people knew its name. Shen Zhimo learned a lot
Remember, this little thing can't trouble him.
Terry Hill asked again: "What is the hourglass used for?"
"Calculate the time. Whenever the quicksand inside runs out, it is a predetermined time. I understand that the magic circle is replenishing energy. When the quicksand runs out, it is full of energy, and then the magic will activate."
Tyreseer looked pale and said: "You are very smart, just as I thought. No matter what magic is about to be activated, as long as the energy is strong enough, we will all die."
The two looked at each other, unable to find any solution, and their eyes showed general helplessness.
The roar of the light ball driven by the electric current was so loud that they could not hear each other's words, and the quicksand of the hourglass was finally coming to an end.
The energy flow kept colliding with the wrist-breaking knife in Shen Zhimo's hand, causing sparks to fly. He couldn't bear it anymore and ran towards the hourglass. Before he could run a few steps, a burst of energy came straight towards him, burning his skin and flesh to pieces, and his hair.
Exhausted.
Shen Zhimo had no way out, so he hurriedly used the "Thousand Jin Pendant" to freeze his body, took a deep breath, and headed towards the light ball again. His shoulder was hit by electric current, and a piece of flesh bounced out, and the blood was immediately evaporated into steam by the high temperature. He
The pain was so painful that I almost fainted. I mustered up my last internal strength and sprinted towards the ball of light.
