Chapter 52: The Legend of the Sky Ark
Chapter 52: The Legend of the Sky Ark
The stairs were paved with green stones, and on the walls on both sides were hung some magic lamps made of low-level magic crystals.
The style is very popular, like a lantern, with blue transparent magic crystals wrapping a bright stone drawn with a magic circle in the center.
The principle of luminescence should be to continuously stimulate the bright light stone through magic power, so that it emits white light.
It was a very simple structure, and Cloya even took a look at it and felt that if he could disassemble it and study it, he could replicate the magic circle, and he could do it.
"Is this simple structure the only stable one?"
He looked at the magic lamps hanging on both sides. If this place was really related to the wizard who traded with the mermaids, it must have been there for at least two hundred years.
Such a simple structure is still effective after two hundred years, and honestly speaking it is very practical.
"Let's talk about it when we get out..."
Resisting the urge to break it off for research, Croix continued walking forward.
"Tread~step~"
The only sound on the silent stairs was his footsteps. It would have been difficult to breathe underground, but strangely enough, he didn't feel suffocated at all.
About two minutes later, he reached the end of the stairs - a wall that was completely indistinguishable from the surrounding stone walls.
Even though this place looked wrong in every way, there was indeed only a wall, and it was very smooth without any markings.
He felt around with his hands but didn't find any protruding mechanisms, nor did he detect anything wrong with his magical senses.
"Well, it's not that easy to get in... But if it was left by that great wizard."
Kloya thought about it and took out the appointment letter from the Mage Association that he had always carried with him from the shell.
Generally speaking, places like this require some kind of token to prove one's identity, and this is the only thing he has to prove his identity.
The result was exactly what happened.
When he took out the appointment letter, a faint light flashed on the magic seal representing the Mage Association on the appointment letter and surged towards the wall.
Then, the wall in front of him silently turned into a door, and with a creaky sound, the door opened by itself.
Revealing the situation inside.
Inside is a room of about 100 square meters.
I don’t know if it was some kind of magic, but the ceiling was emitting light like sunlight, and it felt a little warm when it shone on my body.
There are white cloud patterns floating slowly on the blue ceiling.
At first glance, it looks like blue sky and white clouds.
"It's quite nice, and it doesn't seem to have any traps or gadgets."
Kloya walked in cautiously and looked around - the place was very empty, with only a few tables and chairs.
The air was surprisingly fresh, without any smell of decay.
But to be honest, it was very different from the secret room full of treasures he had imagined.
The only eye-catching thing in the whole room is some exquisite utensils placed on the table. Whether it is a beaker or a crystal bottle, they all look magnificent.
“What material is it made of?”
He walked over to check and found that in addition to scattered beakers and crystal bottles on the table, there was also a handwritten booklet.
Well, there might be something in this booklet.
"Open it." Cloya took the earth rat out of his pocket and ordered. "Chichi!" The earth rat did not dare to resist and obediently opened the book, revealing the words inside.
After confirming that it was not a magical weapon, Cloya leaned over to take a look and carefully identified the words inside.
His expression became more and more strange.
This is a research note, which seems to describe a very powerful ancient magical device. The person who wrote this note called it the "Sky Ark".
It is powered by the power of the sky, and people living on it can receive absolute blessings and have all their material and spiritual needs met.
"Why does this description sound like the Kingdom of God? There's also the Ark and the Gospel. It sounds like it's related to the Vatican."
He couldn't help but feel curious and continued reading.
After investigation and research, the person who wrote down this notebook felt that the Sky Ark must have crashed into the sea, and might have been taken away by mermaids.
So he came here in person to investigate. He traded with the mermaids and even used the Seven Stars Divine Array to help the mermaids filter and refine the essence of water stars.
During this period, he discovered a vein of Sky Crystal from the mermaids. He thought it was a clue, but after mining and research, he became more disappointed.
That is an ordinary Void Crystal.
This crystal with divine power can be used to make some special magical devices and cultivate magical plants. It has many uses.
But it was really useless for him.
He wrote angrily: The territory of my floating island can produce Sky Crystals, but these stupid mermaids treat them like treasures!
After three hundred years of gaining nothing, he had no choice but to leave as he had to follow his mentor to the Star Council.
According to his description, it would be difficult to come back to this world after this trip, so he could only leave a booklet and let the later members of the Mage Association continue to cooperate with the mermaids to find the Sky Ark.
The utensils made of star crystal and a piece of star crystal ore on the table can be regarded as gifts for those who come later.
Normally the booklet should end here.
But there is more content at the end, and the handwriting has also changed, becoming a very delicate but graceful cursive script, and each word is filled with magical charm.
“To those who come later, the matter of the Sky Ark is purely a legend and the fantasy of bards. You can continue trading with the mermaids, but you must not indulge in it anymore.
I have banished the mark he left behind, and the crystal may be used at will."
At the end of these two lines of words there was a name and a special magic mark. The name was Ilister, and there was an orderly flow of divine power within the mark.
The two kinds of magic are clearly separated and do not interfere with each other. They are very similar to the "Seven Stars Separation Technique" he learned, which should ensure that it is the legendary wizard himself.
"..."
It took Cloya a while to fully understand the clues and relationships here.
This unknown wizard is Ilister's apprentice. He was looking for a treasure called the Ark of the Sky, but he didn't find it. It seems that he also left a trap to harm those who come later.
But the legendary wizard Ilister rushed over after discovering it, cleared the trap, and warned them not to look for the Sky Ark anymore.
In order to reassure those who came after him, he even left his signature and a magical mark of order - to be honest, this really makes people feel at ease.
But what about the contract with the mermaids? Doesn’t Ilister know about it, or are the two traps different?
Also, the question is, does the "Sky Ark" mentioned here really not exist?
He always felt that the Sky Ark had some connection with the strange platinum-colored ring inside the mushroom he had seen before, but that thing seemed to have nothing to do with the Sky Ark.
