Volume 7: War and Peace in an Abandoned Town Chapter 4: Ancient Prophecy (Part 1)
(Double Eleven was really fun. I was so confused after a whole day of shopping… But I have to write seventeen chapters in the next twenty-four hours… I feel like my body is almost exhausted, so I’ll give it a try. Here are three chapters first. Do you think I slept? How is that possible? I will not become a memory.)
Of course, kneeling down does not mean that a person has lost consciousness, and in fact, the game company does not have the right to make the player faint directly.
After all, mobilizing emotions is part of the game, but losing consciousness is another concept. So even if Li Lin fell to his knees and his mana was drained, he remained completely awake.
The revelation naturally ended because of the lack of magic power, but seeing the ashes on his body and the clothes condensed by magic power, Li Lin's expression was hard to describe in words. Especially looking at the twisted scrap iron and messy devices on the ground, as well as the decayed appearance around him, Li Lin felt that it would be better for him to faint at this time. He couldn't bear this kind of thing.
His only, his best, his most precious set, which is useless but very useful.
That’s all.
And it was when I was in college that I lost it after using just one skill.
It was just because he wanted to find a treasure trove, and as a result, his last equipment disappeared.
Moreover, the ritual sword that had always been very precious was sent to the Holy Light Department due to wear and tear, which meant that now he didn't have a single piece of equipment. Even the last piece of equipment was gone.
The clothes he wore were woven with magic, and his weapons were shaped with magic. And because of the characteristics of Li Lin's power, these equipment and clothes were magically fixed to their original state, and there was no need to worry about consumption. It was just like normal equipment. If Li Lin didn't say it, no one would know that he had no equipment at all.
This is really a great ability.
Li Lin thought about death.
"Ah, well... you probably don't have to worry too much."
Looking at Li Lin, who was covered in black air, the professor showed a rare embarrassed expression and said awkwardly:
"Except for your equipment, you are pretty good. You see, clothes woven with magic are much simpler than you think, and your ability itself has the concept of solidifying the form, which is stronger than those ordinary clothes-"
“But I’m out of gear.”
"Well, from a practical point of view, this is true. But if you look at it from a long-term perspective, this is actually a good thing. After all, according to your ability level, these equipments have long been unable to keep up with your own abilities. Perhaps you should have some confidence. Isn't this a good opportunity? Your ability has long surpassed your current equipment, right?"
“But I’m out of gear.”
"That's right, as the saying goes, out goes the old , in comes the new. You should be more open-minded, Assistant Instructor Li Lin. At least this shows that your strength is absolutely solid. Look at the robe you have woven yourself, you can tell at a glance that it is not a simple thing. It is not difficult to accept to wear magic components directly. After all, I also wear it this way. Look at my clothes and my glasses, they are all woven with my own compressed magic power. If they are placed outside, wouldn't they also be called magic items and artifacts?"
“But I’m out of gear.”
"...I really don't understand why you are still obsessed with something that can be easily made. Magic equipment is to better guide magic power and activate some abilities that you don't have. You are almost omnipotent, so it is completely unnecessary, right?"
"Because that's the only way to prove my bloodline!"
"Isn't your bloodline human? Why do you need proof?"
“No, sometimes I think I might be from Antarctica, I’m not Asian…”
"I don't understand a word you say."
“…”
Forget it, if the old doesn’t go, the new won’t come…
Thinking back to the intention that appeared in his apocalypse, Li Lin thought without any hope in his heart.
He had resigned himself to his fate. Although the rotten sun sounded very high-end and still left a lingering impression in his mind, it was a dream to find something with just one sentence.
This is the price of growing up.
Looking at the breath of Sodom turned into ashes, Li Lin felt so distressed that his heart almost stopped.
"Ahem, but I just organized all the knowledge you have acquired."
After seeing that Li Lin's emotions had stabilized a little, the professor coughed and showed a professional expression.
"I have analyzed the specific address and needs represented by the phrase 'Rotten Sun'. I will compile it into a booklet for you later. Well, all of this is free. After all, you have been under my command for such a long time, and I am very optimistic about you."
"...Huh? Didn't I just say one sentence?"
"It's just one sentence for you, but not for others. Revelation has always been such a vague thing. But you have to know that for professionals, your magical sentence can reveal all the information. If you want to solve this mystery with your own strength, you may have to go through several adventures , but I am here."
These questions are too simple for me.
When the professor mentioned this , he showed a bit of confidence. That kind of confidence did not come from his profession or his own knowledge, but from the confidence that he was born this way. It was as if he was born for these secrets and treasures.
What is archaeology? Strictly speaking, archaeology is not just about investigating some ancient relics, those events that have occurred, those former treasures, those taboos hidden in time, those old knowledge that cannot be directly touched, and these are obviously not something that ordinary archaeologists can handle. But as a professor of archaeology in a university, his ability is beyond doubt.
Thinking back carefully, even the mysterious Nightmare Middle School has the professor's portrait, which is enough to prove that this professor who looks a little embarrassed is definitely an expert in his profession. And every archaeologist will have a corresponding bonus for the interpretation of such revelations. Otherwise, if you encounter those mysterious languages and inscriptions, there is no need for archaeology. So Li Lin did not doubt anything else about the professor's interpretation, and immediately turned his attention to it.
"Of course, before I tell you this difficult question, I have to give you some advice. Or suggestions."
Looking at Li Lin who was listening attentively, the professor paused and said seriously:
"You cannot use any of Sally's power for this mission. Otherwise, you will never find the truth."
