Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 616 Secret Realm Castle
In the distant age of the gods, magicians did not value the magic circuit, because at that time the "Great Source" was very active, and magicians could directly extract magic power from the "Great Source" without going through the magic circuit.

In the words of the famous great witch Medea—magic power is everywhere, but ordinary people cannot see it.Shen Er also heard similar words from Skaha's mouth, and got a further explanation.

"Dayuan" is like a huge reservoir, and the magic circuit is like a water pump.The lower the water level, the more difficult it is to pump water, and the higher the water level, the easier it is to pump water.If the water level gets too high, the pump won't work because the whole machine is flooded.

Some people may say that this is not a good thing?If you can't get water, you need a water pump. If the water pump is submerged, just get water directly. Isn't it more convenient?
The problem lies precisely here. The foundation of modern magic is the magic circuit.After thousands of years of development, magicians have long given up taking water directly, and put all their attention on the "water pump" system.Except for some ancient books, only the old monsters who have experienced the most mysterious and prosperous era still remember the method of taking water directly.

Once the "pump" system is abolished, everything built on it is also abolished.The more powerful the modern magicians are, the more they will be affected, because it has become their instinct to connect the great source with a magic circuit.On the contrary, the apprentices who have not yet started will not be affected. They mainly rely on the body's natural magic power, which has nothing to do with the "big source".

Shen Er is now considered a second-rate magician, and he has been greatly affected.However, his situation is quite special. His enlightenment mentor, Skaha, came from the Age of Gods, and he knew how to extract magic power from the "Great Source", and imprinted it on the "inheritance crystallization" for his disciples.

"Ah, I found it. Sure enough, I saw it. The Meditation Method of the Age of Gods—could it be that the master had foreseen that I would need this?"

Meditation is an introductory compulsory course for magicians in the Age of Gods. The difficulty is naturally not high. After studying it several times, Shen Er quickly mastered the tricks.Although there is still a long way to go before combining with modern magic, it is enough to drive magic.

Not long after, Shen Er completed the restoration of all the treasures.

That's right, all of them.

The greatest advantage of the magicians of the Age of Gods is that the magic power does not need to be accumulated, it can be used at any time, as long as the mental power is enough, the magic power will never be exhausted.And mental strength happens to be Shen Er's absolute strength, so if he can do it all at once, he can also improve his proficiency in meditation.

Half an hour had passed since waking up, and Shen Er was finally ready and took the first step of exploration.

Contrary to what he judged before, this is indeed a castle. Although the exterior has not been seen, its internal structure has many similarities with the base camp of the Clone brigade.

The place where you wake up is the hall of the castle. There are corridors on the left and right, connecting rooms with different functions.The room is not locked and can be entered at will.Like the hall, the decorative furniture is in European classical style, and it is also very well preserved, with no traces of human life.

The left and right cloisters meet at the stairs. Going down is the dungeon and storage room, and going up is the living area - judging from experience, it is not known whether there are people living there.

One of Shinji's goals is to pass through a main corridor on the third floor to reach the viewing platform.There are no clues to judge the location inside the castle, so we can only pin our hopes on the outside.

The time seems to be midnight, and the full moon hangs high above the head, coating the entire viewing platform with a hazy silver glow, and also provides good conditions for determining the location.

Looking around, Shen Er felt a cold heart.The castle is surrounded by a vast plain. Even if the vision is strengthened to the limit, the clues obtained are very limited. He can only roughly judge that he should be somewhere in the southern hemisphere.

The time of the two world lines is synchronized. It was late autumn when we left Romania, but the grass on the plain was green. It was late at night but it didn’t feel cold. This can only be explained by the reversal of the seasons.

In order to verify his guess, Shen Er looked up to observe the astrology - although his astronomy knowledge is very limited, he also knows that the astrology in the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere are different, if you can't see the North Star, then this guess is probably correct.

However, the results of the observations surprised him.

No astrology!

Yes, no!

In the clear and cloudless night sky, there is only a bright moon, no stars, not a single one.

"What's the situation? I can't be dazzled."

I rubbed my eyes vigorously, and looked again, still nothing.

Well, this amount of information is a bit large.

In this world, it is impossible not to see the stars in such a good night.Combined with the extremely active "Great Source" around him, it is likely that he is not in this world, but has fallen into a certain secret place-here, any unreasonable things may happen.

After confirming this point, Shen Er felt mixed feelings.

The good news is that positioning is easy this way.The state of the secret realm is related to the current environment when the secret realm was generated. The environment comparable to the Age of Gods shows that the secret realm is very old, and the older the secret realm, the less the number of remaining ones, and the easier it is to check.

What is worrying is that an ancient secret realm often means that there is an equally ancient existence living there. If someone invades your own territory, it is hard to say how Joan will be treated.

Of course, whether it is joy or sorrow, it will not affect what Shen Er will do next.

Send out the news, and then find a way to protect yourself, waiting for the arrival of the "Jewel Man".

After cutting off the conversation with Yustisa, Shinji returned to the castle to continue exploring.

He didn't know how long it would take for the "Jewel Weng", so he had to secure a place to stay, and this castle without any traces of life was a very good choice.

Since you want to live here, familiarizing yourself with the terrain has become a top priority, so that you can deal with any unexpected situations.

Returning along the original road, I walked through corridors and checked room by room, but I still didn't find anything, and it was the best discovery at the same time.

After completing the investigation on the third floor, Shen Er came to the fourth floor.

This is the highest floor of the castle, and it is generally used as the living room of the owner of the castle, because this height can maximize the isolation of noise and smell from other parts of the castle.If nothing is found here, the castle is completely safe.

For the sake of caution, Shen Er did not investigate in the natural order as before, but deliberately went from side to front. After confirming all the other rooms, he finally stood in front of the most central and largest room.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Er adjusted his state to the best, reached out and knocked three times on the closed door.

Waiting as usual, no response as usual, and pushing the door open as usual.

The moment he opened the door, he froze.
