How do I break the team invitation from my old enemy?

Lin Wei knocked hard on the wall, his voice was muffled, and there was indeed no room inside. They walked down the stairs, and the runes on both sides became denser and denser, and finally it suddenly became clear, leading to a place similar to a hall.

The hall is very large, and the spar can only illuminate not far away. The first thing that appears in front of you is two statue-like things at the entrance. In front of their chests, each held a long sword upside down against the ground.

The statue is cold to the touch and is made of metal. Walking forward, passing through an empty space, the outline of a huge seat appeared - its regulations were much larger than the throne of the emperor of the empire.

When he got closer, Lin Wei found that there was a small platform in front of the seat, which served as a table and placed a lot of things. When he moved the spar close to the seat, he was almost shocked.

There is a skeleton sitting on it, saying that the skeleton is actually not accurate, because it is covered with a layer of translucent brown stuff, which seems to be made of flesh and blood.

Lin Wei was afraid of the possible danger, so he didn't touch it directly. He lit up another spar lamp to check more carefully: "...Air dry?"

Some fringe territories of the empire have the custom of air-drying corpses, and those corpses will appear similar to the skeleton in front of them.

"It may also be burning." Duan Yu said, the two got very close, and looked at the corpse that had been placed for an unknown amount of time.

"Burning..." Lin Wei's pupils narrowed slightly, recalling a scene in his previous life——

In the previous life, when the empire used the curse scroll "Sunset" to make the floating capital fall, it sacrificed the life of a high-level magician who was born as a commoner.

"Your Excellency," the magician had a pair of black and white eyes, and performed the highest courtesy to the commander: "My family——"

"They will receive the best arrangement and wealth that will never be used up in their lifetime," the duke in a black cloak nodded slightly to him, with no emotion in his pupils: "The empire will remember your name."

"Thank you," the high-level magician took a deep breath and turned around, with a sad and helpless smile on his last look: "Its power is really too great, after a while...you remember to stay away from it." .”

The scroll unfolded slowly in front of the magician, shining beautifully like a sunset glow, rising slowly under his control, and the light became brighter and brighter. In the sea of ​​clouds.

And the elements around the magician fluctuated violently, his body trembled, and he quickly lost weight. At the same time as a loud sound and light erupted in the distant sky, his body also fell to the ground—only a shriveled and withered face remained. Thin-skinned skeleton.

The energy required to activate the forbidden spell is enormous, requiring a magician to consume all of his life.

The forbidden spell began to spread rapidly, and there was a rhythmic sound from the dragon's throat, and the five-color barrier enveloped and protected the people present.

The Duke did not stay away. He walked forward slowly, took off his black cloak, covered the body of the dead magician, and then turned to the members of the Imperial Magician Corps and a dozen senior generals of the army.

"The magic world calls this process 'burning'." The voice of the young duke could not be called resonant, but a kind of quiet force, each word fell on the hearts of the listeners, making them vaguely frightened and blood churning: "After the destruction of Callaway City, their counterattack will begin immediately."

He paused, looked around at the people in front of him, and continued: "Sacrifice and glory are waiting in front of us. Use my blood to water the never-ending flaming rose."

"Sacrifice and glory are waiting ahead. With my blood, I will water the never-ending flaming rose."

"I will burn everything for the Empire until I die."

The pre-war oath was uttered with one voice, and the atmosphere was solemn.

"What are you thinking?" Duanyu noticed Lin Wei's brief absence.

"It's nothing." Lin Wei smiled slightly, shook his head at him, and continued to look at the withered corpse on the seat.

Burning...it does look like it.

He looked to the side: "There are other corpses."

Standing on both sides of the seat were two corpses in the same condition. The clothes on their bodies were tattered and hung on the skeleton, but they had just been hidden in the shadow of the back of the chair.

The two looked at each other and walked towards the door when they came.

The oracle is about the same height as the "statue", and the junction of their helmet and armor is almost integrated, and when the helmet is taken off, it makes an unpleasant friction sound.Lin Wei held the spar lamp at the side, and saw a skull covered with translucent brown flesh exposed under the helmet.

The atmosphere in the hall became chilly, but fortunately, the two had enough courage—they walked to the seats again, and this time turned their attention to the things on the table.Strangely, there is no dust on it, and there are magician's sundries, crystal balls, blank sheepskin scrolls, etc. What is eye-catching is a crystal rapier in the middle of the table, and a thin book with a black cover is pressed under the rapier .

Lin Wei picked up the crystal rapier, which had a somewhat radiant beauty under the light of the spar: "Is it useful?"

"You can keep it," Duan Yu took it from his hand, looked at it a few times and then passed it back: "The storage capacity is much higher than that of a crystal ball. After I infuse it with magic, you can use your spiritual power to stimulate it."

"Good thing." Lin Wei took it with a smile, put it away, and carefully picked up the black thin book: "Maybe there may be something written in it."

The booklet was well preserved and looked brand new. Lin Wei turned to the first page. The first page was blank, but there were words on the second page—it wasn’t the expected lengthy explanation of this place, but some… names.

The form of the characters is very different. The reason why I recognized this name is because there is a part written in human language on it, and it is also recognized by Lin Wei!

"Nylanzik Eucarius," Lin Wei looked at the line of words with disbelief: "Donus Tidis!"

"Your last name?" Duan Yu asked.

"That's right, but it's nothing..." Lin Wei shook his head, pointing to the previous name: "This is the founding emperor of the empire, and then the ancestor of our family—the family was not prosperous at that time, he was the royal Leader of the Knights."

Juanyu read out another human name: "Quilling and Philsis...the creators of the Academy of Magic and the first generation leader of the Magic Association."

Other names were written in other languages, and the most complicated and smooth font Lin Wei had seen in the dream of the goddess Katanafia: "This is the language of the elves."

"Then the rest," Juan Yan's finger slowly slid across the different forms of writing: "They are all languages ​​of various ethnic groups... Is it a record or a signature?"

"I'm afraid it was signed." Lin Wei touched his chin anxiously: "It is indeed the handwriting of those two people-the empire keeps their handwriting, I recognize it."

Based on the known identities of the four people, the other names—are they leaders of various ethnic groups?

They seem to have discovered something remarkable.

"But why is there such a signature? There is no previous agreement or contract..." he wondered.

Continue to turn to the next page, and then it is all blank. The only thing on the thin volume is these signatures, and it is very likely that they are the handwritings of the big figures at the end of the dark age 1000 years ago.

If these signatures are true, it means that an unknown agreement or consensus has been reached between these people.And if these corpses really died from "burning", then something dozens of times stronger than the forbidden curse would be activated.

The two looked through the items on the table one by one, but there was no other information. They walked around the hall, but found nothing except for a few more corpses.

"Could the people who signed it be these corpses?" Duan Yu looked at Lin Wei: "Did your founding emperor..."

Lin Wei knew what he meant and shook his head: "I'm not sure, the empire did not preserve the remains of Eucarius I, he abdicated early, it is said that after the empire gained a firm foothold, the legendary majesty left the imperial capital, Going to 'travel around'."

"The number is wrong," Juan Yu looked at the floor: "The source of the gold element was not here before."

"But we didn't see any passage," Lin Wei noticed Duanyu's line of sight: "—underneath?"

The magician nodded.

They walked around the hall again, and after confirming that there was no way to go down, they quickly reached a consensus.

The mermaids outside looked anxiously at the silent shipwreck. Suddenly, the hull of the ship trembled, and there was a dull sound, which was transmitted to their sensitive ears through the sea water. The mermaids were quite frightened and looked at each other. His eyes were terrified.

In the hall, the floor has been shaken by the powerful magic to create spider web-like cracks, which are constantly expanding. During the gap between the magic, Lin Wei will take the opportunity to throw a scroll. An abnormal situation is that the magic of the oracle can still be used normally. But Kungunir's spear couldn't launch an attack no matter what.

After a short period of time, the floor finally cracked completely, revealing a hollow, with a golden light looming under the hollow, and the concentration of gold elements suddenly increased again.Juan strengthened the magic barrier placed on Lin Wei and led him to jump down from the hole.

Lin Wei looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, and turned his gaze to the motionless Kungunil: "I know why it doesn't want to attack..."

—It is probably ashamed of itself.

On the high platform in front of the two of them was a large rectangular rectangular box made of crystal - in fact, according to its shape, it is more appropriate to say that it is a crystal coffin, it is more than enough for one or two people to lie down, but the person lying flat in it is not the dead, but a coffin. A long spear, a golden spear that was broken into three pieces.

Even though it was broken for some unknown reason, it was still blazing with icy-cold and sacred aura.

"I feel very small." Lin Wei looked at it and murmured, "What about you?"

The two walked up the stone steps of the high platform, Duan Yu put his hand on the crystal, and frowned slightly: "I think it's very familiar."

"open to take a look?"

Duanyu nodded, and said to Lin Wei: "The concentration of elements will be higher in the future, so stay away."

Lin Wei stepped back a lot, watching his movements.

The crystal coffin is not completely closed, and the coffin lid can slide open with a little force.

The moment it was opened, the hull of the ship shook more violently than before, and a lot of gravel fell from the hole that was broken before, and the whole space was crumbling.
