Starting from Zero

Isinger’s equipment researches all very high-precision Microscopes. Although there is no way to compare with the electronic tunnel Microscopes in reality, the optical Microscopes used in school can still be used for teaching. from. What I want to do now is to find the center point on the map, but not to regenerate the cells. Such a Microscope is enough.

After finding the approximate coordinates on the map, I used a special device to find the center point, and then I used the penknife for the micro-carving magic array that I specially borrowed from the magic array research institute to click on the map A small point. Use the same method to mark all the positions of the three circles, and then it's time to find them.

The closest circle to me on the map is less than 100 kilometers away from Isinger in a straight line. This is of course the preferred search object. However, only three circles are marked on the map to indicate that the three books are in these three places, but which place corresponds to which book is not said, so it becomes a little troublesome to inquire about things. It was for this reason that Rose asked me to do this task that seemed to be accomplished by running errands.

Although I usually behave very strong and able to fight, don’t forget that my affinity and deterrent attributes for NPCs are much stronger than ordinary people when collecting information. . If it is a non-hostile NPC, then the other party will not only tell me what it knows, but sometimes also actively help me contact other NPCs who may know the information to help. If the average player comes to ask the same question, that NPC is two different things, so don't expect it to help. If you encounter a hostile or wild monster NPC, the average player will probably fight the opponent, and then depending on the outcome of the battle, the opponent will often choose to resist or deliberately mislead. Beyond my level, he has a high probability to directly tell me what I want to know, and the bigger the difference between the opponent and me, the easier it is to ask the result. Of course, if you run into an NPC that is stronger than me, it still takes a lot of effort, but compared to the average player, my effort is definitely less than that of them.

Flying all the way to the position marked on the first circle, I quickly reached the coordinate point, but this is not a city or a leveling point, so it is really troublesome to find someone to ask for something. . Looking at the rolling mountains below, I finally had to land on the ground first, and then use the old method-looking for dead souls and sprinkling crystal powder.

"Dear fief lord, what is your order to wake me up?" An undead who I dug out from under a big tree asked respectfully. If someone other than me is standing here, unless he is also playing the undead system, otherwise the first words of the undead will never be the respected fief lord, and I can almost conclude that when the undead touches The first thing you do after getting on the living person is to jump on and launch an attack.

Looking at the tattered guy, I asked directly: "Have you ever heard of the book of the world?"

The undead immediately shook his head like a rattle. "Sorry, my lord, I have never heard of this thing."

"What about "Book of Time"? Or "Book of Space" or "Book of Energy". I have never heard of it. Is it?"

The undead still shook the head and said: "Sorry, I really haven't heard it." When I heard the answer from the other party, I could only throw him a handful of black liquid crystal powder. I was going to find other creatures to inquire about it, but didn’t expect that the undead suddenly added after receiving the crystal powder: "My lord, although I have not heard those books you mentioned, but if you are sure that the books are here If you are nearby, I suggest you go over there."

I looked at the direction of the undead’s fingers, and I couldn’t see the difference between that side and this side.

Probably knowing my doubts, the undead explained: "When I was a human, I heard a legend. It is said that there is a powerful mage living in the valley in front. I think if there is a book somewhere in such a forest, it can only be the residence of the mage."

As soon as I heard this answer, I knew that the mission objective had appeared. He threw a larger bag of crystal powder to the undead, and then before the other party said thank you, I stepped onto Ye Ying and ran towards the valley in front.

From the degree of energy aggregation of the old ghost just now, he has been a ghost for some time, and the soul that has just died will not condense to this degree, and when he was still a human, he heard that there was a A powerful mage has lived, which means that as long as that mage does not happen to be able to transform Lich, he should probably be dead now. But this didn't have much effect on my task. I'm looking for a book, not someone. It doesn't matter whether he is dead or not.

After rushing all the way into the valley, I discovered that this place is actually a dead end. Only the side of the valley where I just entered can enter and exit freely. Except for the entrance, the entire valley is surrounded by a C-shaped Among the mountains, although the surrounding mountains are not vertical, the slope of more than seventy degrees is no longer suitable for anyone to go up.

This valley is simply the best place to repair fortresses or bases. It is not surprising that there are mages living here. As long as how to find the residence of that mage, this is also simple. Anyway, within the valley, there are bones of the dead, so I can basically ask about it when I recruit a dead soul.

Experimentally summoned two undead out at once. After a brief inquiry and exchange, I learned from them that there was indeed a mage who lived here, but the mage has been dead for many years. , And because there was no one to maintain, even the house where the Master lived was buried in the mountain because of a mudslide. Fortunately, the two undead knew the exact location of the house, and as long as they knew the location, it didn't take much to dig it out.

"Be careful, don't demolish the house!" After knowing the location, I summon luck and plague to help dig the house.

Although the mage’s house was buried by a mudslide, it was not deeply buried. After a few simple searches, we found the wreckage of the house. The wood-stone mixed structure house has collapsed in the mudslide, so now only the wreckage is dug out.

After confirming the specific location of the house, I replaced the lucky ones first, and Qilin warrior continued to dig. Although the Qilin warrior is not necessarily more careful than the lucky ones, but they are so big or not, no matter how careless they are, they will not go down half a house with a paw.

After carefully removing the surrounding soil and rubble, the items in some houses appeared under the ruins, but these things did not seem to touch the book, so we had to continue to the surrounding and to Expand the cleaning area. After spending more than half an hour, we finally found something valuable after we cleared almost the entire house.

"The basement?" Looking at the rock frame in front of me, I immediately guessed the original purpose of this thing, but there is a small problem that needs to be solved before we start our book hunting journey, and this The question is—"Damn, why is it all mud in this?"

"Obviously, the door of the basement was open when the mudslide broke out, so according to the natural law of water seeks its own level, the basement was It’s not a weird thing to be filled with mud?” Lucky said, standing behind me.

"It’s not surprising, but the question now is how do I get down? It will take at least a day to clear the dirt here!"

The basement is different from the houses on the ground. The entrance is only enough for two people to squeeze through, which means that the working area left for us is very small. On the ground, we can speed up the progress by simply increasing the number of people working, but no matter how many people there are, there can be at most one person digging at the damn entrance. Although it is actually enough for two people to work in parallel, it needs Work requires space, which is obviously not enough for two people to move around.

"Maybe we can let the crystal try." Lucky suggested.

"Then let her try." Anyway, there is no other way now, as the fairy dragon crystal at least knows a lot of messy magic, although it may not be used in battle, it handles many small problems. It's very useful.

After the crystal was released, it turned into a human form and observed the structure of the basement. After a little thought, she said: "I think I can handle it. Give me five minutes."

< p>After talking to us, the crystal immediately began to cast the spell. She first cast a strange spell to the cave, and as her spell cast, a thin water line suddenly emerged from the entrance of the basement. The water continued to drill out from the ground as if it was alive, and then flowed to the valley floor behind us and was gradually absorbed by the soil over there. After completing the spell, the crystal suddenly pointed at the entrance of the cave and shouted at the same time: "Shock wave." With a bang, our surroundings were completely covered by dust in the sky in an instant. Of course, the entrance to the basement is still blocked. The smoke and dust looks large. In fact, only a thin layer of soil is enough to create such a large smoke and dust. Compared with the soil in the entire cave, this is just one hair. from nine oxen only.

"cough cough cough...Crystal, if you do this kind of thing next time, please say hello." Fortunately, while complaining, he hurriedly flapped his wings twice to blow the dust out.

"Sorry, my mistake." After Crystal finished speaking, she pointed her finger at the hole again, and then she suddenly remembered something and said to us: "Everyone, stand further. It’s going to be a bit dirty."

Originally, when she finished speaking, we were going to ask her what she meant. Who knew she threw a small whirlwind at the entrance of the cave right after she said it, and we saw that Xiao Xuanfeng sucked up all the dust at the entrance of the cave like a vacuum cleaner, and as the whirlwind sucked, the soil at the entrance of the cave disappeared rapidly downwards at a speed visible to naked eye.

"How did you do it?" Looking at the declining soil surface, I looked at Crystal in surprise and asked.

Crystal said with some pride: "It's very simple. I first use the Water Element to extract all the water in the basement from the soil, and then the soil will become extremely dry. At this time, I use shaking The wave shakes all the dry and brittle soil apart, so that the connected soil becomes flour-like dust. At this time, just use a small tornado to suck away the dust. Isn’t it simple?"

"It did a good job."

The efficiency of this super vacuum cleaner from Crystal is really high. It took less than 3 minutes to clear all the steps of the basement entrance, and then Crystal went down again and repeated For the previous magic, the tornado began to clean the soil in the basement again. The space in the basement was basically cleared in less than 20 minutes before and after, although there are still a lot of mud and stones accumulated on the ground in many places. But at least it does not prevent us from looking for things.

The age of this basement is too old, and there is no protective spell that is unique to the temple, so all kinds of items are basically rotten, including all kinds of wooden furniture. After a long time of mud immersion, it turned into rotten wood. Just after being dampened by the crystal, it was smashed by a shock wave. These rotten things were cleaned by the tornado along with the dust.

We are not here to hunt for treasure anyway, so the damage of these things is meaningless to me. Without those things, it is convenient for us to find things. The entire basement that can be blown away is drawn outside. Now there are only a few magic items with protection spells and big rocks in the mudslides. These things cannot be hurt by the previous magic, so After the tornado, only these things were left.

"A few people will come down and move all the rocks out." I took a brief look in the basement and asked Qilin warrior to clear the rocks out. The entrance to the basement is just that big. The volume of stones that can be rolled in will not be too huge. After being cleaned up quickly, there are only three things left in the basement.

The last three things left in the empty basement are not books. The first item is a box. The volume is about half the size of a home computer case. It is estimated that it should be for expensive items, because There is a strong protection array on the box. Except for the box, the remaining two items are a slap-sized disc and something that looks a bit like a Microscope.

Because the three things are covered with a layer of soil, it is not clear for the time being. After confirming that there were no other secret tunnels in the basement, we took the things back to the ground. After washing off the dirt on the surface with water, the three items immediately bloomed with dazzling magic rays of light. Obviously, the magic on these items is still in effect.

The instrument that looked like a Microscope was quickly recognized by the crystal. This thing is said to be a device used to analyze the magical properties of substances. It belongs to a long time ago technology. Dragon Clan has used it before, but it has been obsolete for a long time. In short, according to the words of the crystal, this thing has no other value besides being an antique collection.

Although I quickly figured out what the Microscope-like thing was, but the disc I discovered before was not sure what it was for. After cleaning the disc, I discovered that its surface was engraved with densely packed characters and patterns using a mixture of intaglio and embossing patterns, but the problem is that we don’t know any of the characters above, even the magic pet claims to be the most knowledgeable. The knowledgeable Ling couldn't even figure out what was engraved on it. In short, this thing that looks like an enlarged pocket watch is completely a mystery, even if you use Appraisal Technique, there is no response at all. Of course, although I am not sure what it is for, I will not throw it away. It is definitely a very precious thing that can be protected by powerful magic and remains intact after many years. Even if you don't know the purpose of such a thing, you should store it first. Anyway, we will be able to figure it out sooner or later.

Although one of the first two things was recognized, and the other was not figured out, they were at least intuitively seen, but in the end this box made us blind. The box must be used to hold things, so the box itself is not the point. I am eager to know what is in it. However, although this box is not what we are looking for, it is definitely a treasure in itself, because this thing cannot be violently removed, even if it is used for eternity. Cutting Divine Item is the same as cutting tofu. There is no way to take this box. I even turned the eternity into an axe and couldn't cut it.

"It seems that we have to take things back to find a way." Ling said after studying the magic array on the box for a while: "I don't know what protective magic this box uses. But I know there is a way to open it. But this needs to go back to Isengard."

"Then go back first, anyway, if there is no accident, there must be a certain book in this box. Book."

After returning to Isengard with those things, I asked Ling how to solve it, but Ling gave me a very violent way to open the box.

"Protective magic is like a safe, it can tightly protect the things you want to protect. There are only three ways to go through it to reach the protected things inside. One, use Open the safe with the key and the corresponding password. Second, you understand the structure of the safe and use a special tool to pry it open. Third, use the unbearable force of the safe to directly destroy it. We obviously don’t have a key, so the first method is impossible. The second method is the same. We don’t understand the composition of this protection magic, so it is almost impossible to crack it."

"You mean to use a force beyond the protection limit to hit the protection magic Wear it?" Ling Du said so clearly, of course I guessed what she meant.

Ling Guoran nodded and said: "Although I didn’t figure out the power circulation method of this protective spell, I at least determined its energy intensity. If we temporarily switch Isinger’s power core To this thing, then as long as one second, this thing will automatically explode due to the magic overload, and then it is just an ordinary box. The advantage of this method is that the box can be opened quickly and accurately, but the disadvantage is that the box must be opened. So it’s scrapped."

Although it’s pretty awesome to block the eternal box, it doesn’t seem to be short of safes and the like for our guild, so no matter how strong it is, yes. It's not very useful for us. Because of the above reasons, I quickly agreed to Ling's suggestion and took the things directly to Isinger's power room.

Now Isinger is not using the original power core. Because of the application of the liquefied magic crystal steam technology, the power core of our guild has now become a hybrid. A huge blue liquid ball with a diameter of 20 meters is suspended in the void and slowly spinning. Around this huge liquid ball, thirty-six metal probes that look like syringes are evenly distributed around the liquid ball, but the needles are about one meter away from the liquid ball. However, the huge liquid ball is spinning while continuously discharging the metal needles. Arcs of various shapes are twisting around the entire ball, as if a group of blue lightning snakes are dancing.

The tail section of the syringe-like devices facing the liquid ball are all connected to a metal ring. There are many metal pipes wrapped around this ring. It looks quite complicated, but it does not appear messy. The pipe is connected to each syringe-like device, and the other end is connected through the base to a huge device that looks like a multi-layer birthday cake. This device is located at the bottom of the entire suspension. A thick blue energy ray is being emitted from the tip of the inverted multi-layer cake-like thing. After passing through an octagonal crystal, the blue energy ray is evenly distributed into eight thinner rays and guided to the surrounding area of ​​the room. Among the eight receiving devices in the circle, the other parts of those devices are buried in the wall, so they cannot be seen. However, those things are actually huge, and they will be responsible for transferring energy to Isinger's various devices that require energy, and provide the energy needed for the entire Isinger to operate.

"What should I do?" Standing on the huge telescopic platform in the power room, I asked Ling nervously. You must know that even if it is any one of the eight scattered rays, its instantaneous output is enough to kill me in seconds. Don’t look at how high my defensive power is and how thick my blood volume is. Under the energy rays that can drive the entire city, that is, things that are only a few tenths of a second, I have to be burned to ashes. So every time I face these things, I’m super super. nervous.

Ling didn’t seem to care about my nervousness. She just pointed to the thickest ray in the middle, and then said, “Throw the box directly over. It will fail."

"I hope your method is useful." After I finished speaking, I threw the box moved towards the energy pillar in the village. The box drew a beautiful arc in the sky, and finally hit the main energy beam released by the city's power core accurately according to the route I expected. There was no confrontation or cancellation, like a watermelon crashing into a speeding train, the box exploded into sky fragments the moment it came into contact with the energy beam. But...but an accident happened.

The smashed box did not have any effect on the energy core. It was smashed without even being able to resist. However, although the box was broken, the contents were still there. As we expected, there is only one thing in the box-a book. Although I don't know which one we want, I can be sure that it is what I want. But, in the next second, that book did an amazing thing.

We just watched the box shatter, and then the book flew out and crashed into the energy beam, and then the beam of light that was originally directed at the reflecting crystal was instantly cut off. The book is like a black hole. All the energy rays that are directed towards it are sucked into the book, and when it is absorbing the energy rays, the entire power room suddenly goes black.

"Warning, there is an unexplained output disorder in the main power room. After three seconds, start the backup power room, three, two, one, switch." Along with the sound of pa pa pa, the room lights up again. Got up, but the equipment in front of us stopped completely, and the energy ray was automatically extinguished due to the protective shutdown of the energy extractor. After the energy ray was extinguished, the weird book fell straight down as if suddenly remembering that he should follow the law of universal gravitation. (To be continued.
