Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 452 Tomb? Seal?
Li Xia copied the inscriptions on the wall into his notebook; the Hall of Light usually provides translations.

But this time it's different; neither side in the World War can support their own apostles.

However, the strange little gadgets that Aowu had prepared came in handy.

The languages ​​and writing systems of various worlds are basically based on a few systems: phonemic writing, syllable writing, morphemic writing, consonant phonemic writing, and vowel-tagged writing.

In particular, the larger the world's population, the more the language system tends to be among these five.

In response to this situation, money-hungry employees created something called a universal translator.

As long as enough documents are scanned, the code can be cracked and translated, but it is only effective for general text.

Those that contain magic or are too unorthodox won't work.

There weren't many inscriptions on the walls. After recording all the inscriptions encountered on the sixth floor, the translator could barely provide the meaning of a few words.

But these few words give people a great deal of room for imagination.

"Sir Writer, can you still 'decipher'?"

Aliya came closer again, and together they went deeper into the mausoleum several times. Their previous fear of Li Xia had gradually dissipated.

The pink-haired girl, on the contrary, became increasingly interested in Li Xia's travelogue.

Can a travelogue by a novice author be compared to the travelogue of a top expert?

If I could leave more space in Li Xia's travelogue, I might even be included in a university textbook!
But now, Aria has discovered something else.

'Deciphering' is a relatively niche subject at Ace University, used to translate ancient texts.

This subject is considered useless by most people, so only wealthy and leisurely nobles study it if they are interested.

Even so, there are still many pretentious people. Aliya recalled that she was very curious about 'deciphering' when she was a child. The reason why she lost interest later was because many noble children would take the results they bought at high prices and pretend that they were their own in front of her.

"Understood."

Li Xia closed the notebook and stared at the inscription on the wall.

【.王.王.王.杀.死.死.死王王】

There is a very special symbol in this inscription. The translation machine considers it to be an original symbol that does not belong to the language family of the inscription.

However, this symbol has a high proportion, second only to "king", and it is a key word.

But even these things were enough for Li Xia to fill in some blanks in his mind.

"Wow, that writer is really amazing."

Aria exclaimed in amazement:

“I’m also quite interested in ‘deciphering,’ but I only know one or two words.”

She pointed to a slightly blurry character:

"For example, this means to defeat or win."

Then, pointing to the unique symbol, he said, "You should also know this symbol. Scholars have studied it for a long time and finally deciphered it."

This is a term specifically created for demons; its meaning is quite complex, something like rebirth against nature or something like that, I can't quite remember.

Reverse life?

Li Xia narrowed her eyes:
"Aria, can you find more inscriptions? If there are enough, perhaps I can translate them."

How to translate the unknown inscriptions in ancient tombs?

The secret inscriptions are passed down, and the adventurers' stories will never fade!

A tuft of pink hair on Aliya's head immediately stood up straight, and she patted her small chest loudly: "Leave it to me!"

Awoo and Black Charcoal had already quietly crept over:
"Boss, something's up?"

Li Xia nodded slightly, his gaze fixed on the dark tomb passage:

"It's just a guess and needs to be confirmed. If I'm not mistaken, there's a surprise waiting for us at the very bottom of this tomb."

The passage on the seventh floor is much narrower than the previous one, and this is the deepest level that scholars have speculated to be.

The darkness grew ever denser, and even Yuna's 'Magic Lamp' could not penetrate it.

Aowu, refusing to believe it, simply took out a super flashlight specially made by the Hall of Fame staff, boasting a million lumens, which was said to be able to fully charge the petrified Tiga with a single flashlight.

Even with such an exaggerated flashlight, it could only barely illuminate a distance of ten meters.

"There's something really strange about this—"

Awoo, carrying a flashlight that looked like a 'little sun', shone it back and forth under the horrified gazes of the Moon Silver Wolf Adventure Team.

When had they ever seen a 'handheld lamp' so bright?

Li Xia's Observation Haki spread out silently, but compared to the perception distance of thousands of meters outside, it was only a few dozen meters in the darkness.

Besides light, can even perception be blocked?
The darkness on the sixth floor only blocks out light.
He pondered for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his palm, and the golden sun ring on Kyo Kusanagi's gauntlet suddenly lit up.

A pure white flame suddenly ignited in the palm of his hand. The flame, transformed from true qi, also possessed the characteristics of true qi.

Li Xia flipped his hand and unleashed a burst of flames. To everyone's astonishment, the darkness receded where the flames passed, revealing a clear path.

And there were eerie, unsettling sounds coming from the darkness.

As expected, true qi has a certain restraining effect on these negative forces.

"Let's go on."

The Murakumo sword hanging behind him was drawn with a clear, melodious sword cry, trembling as it transformed into three identical longswords, which swam back and forth in mid-air like spirit fish.

Although the monsters on the seventh floor have not yet appeared, they are a step up from those on the sixth floor and possess many sinister characteristics.

It's best to be cautious yourself, just to be safe.

Aliya's eyes sparkled as she stared at the swords, wishing she could immediately become their apprentice and learn a move herself. Putting everything else aside, they were absolutely stunning in terms of style!

The entire seventh floor remained as peaceful as a picnic, with only three swords covered in a hazy white light, burning with white flames and emitting sword cries as they flew into the darkness.

Each time the sword was drawn, it was accompanied by the monster's screams and eerie growls.

The other members of the Moon Silver Wolves had already put away their weapons, and even seemed indifferent, lying down after putting them down.

Whatever happens, happens. What was supposed to be a thrilling adventure has turned into a picnic. Aowu has taken over the translation work, scanning the inscriptions they encountered with a translator.

As each inscription appeared, the expression on Aowulong's face grew increasingly surprised.

Upon reaching the eighth level, Xiaolong looked at the inscriptions, whose meaning he could now almost decipher, and shouted it out in the team chat.

"Boss, the inscription is almost translated!"
This is not a tomb, or rather, it's more than just a tomb!

Aowu transmitted the runes directly to the team channel:

"Boss, this is a seal!"
