Chapter 27 The Buried Truth

"This is the inspiration that Hugo got from the subway back then. He used the 'positioning' function of the pointer ceremony, so that the buoys marked on the lifting platform can accurately point to different floors..."

Isaac explained the principle of the "elevating platform" to Annan in detail.

The Pointer Ritual is a type of Seance Ritual. It is probably similar to the spiritual disk or pen fairy in this world, using a three-ring roulette with signs of toxicity such as "poisonous, highly poisonous", corrosive signs and explosive possibility signs to directly locate the general characteristics of the unknown transformation mixture.

This is a ritual that alchemists had to master before.

Mainly to prevent killing myself...

Before Hugo, all wizards still had to take the stairs honestly. Every day when the cafeteria opened at noon, the little wizards would huddle together—this was no different from ordinary people.

It was also after the popularity of lifting platforms that wizards avoided the unseemly situation of falling from the stairs.

"Although I don't know the exact weight it can carry, the value must be very good, and the energy consumption should not be too much."

Facing Annan's puzzled eyes, Isaac smiled slightly: "Because this kind of lifting platform is mainly used for loading and unloading mine carts and freighters...that happened before Mr. Hugo became a son of the tower.

"If it is not reliable, practical and cheap, then those mine owners would rather let workers carry it, and never buy a lift.

"From this point, it can be seen that Mr. Hugo is indeed a genius. Many things he invented have pushed this era forward from the subtleties... The invention called 'Hugo School Fine Positioning Lifting Device' is In this way, the special device he invented called the 'Hugo School Shield Tunneling Device' is still the most advanced equipment used by diggers today."

Indeed.

Annan nodded.

It is said that the "overground railway" built on the ground of Noah's Kingdom today was also presided over by Hugo. Because he couldn't copy the "grey fog-powered eternal locomotive" used by the subway, he designed a low-profile model using steam power.

Recently, the Theocracy invented the internal combustion engine, and Hugo made some modifications to the design drawings—using the "inert black fire" made by Salvatore as the raw material, the locomotive powered by internal combustion is already in the experimental stage up.

According to Cafney, it will be ready for trial operation within this year.

At that time, the problem of tight subway capacity can really be solved.

Suddenly, Annan thought of something.

He raised his head and asked the white-haired and green-eyed young man beside him, "Mr. Isaac...did you invent something similar when you were in school?"

Hearing this, Isaac II's expression froze for a moment.

He coughed lightly, and explained: "Mr. Hugo and I have different research directions—even though they are also called the 'Transformation School' today, we were responsible for different directions in history.

"Our Jade Tower is the guardian of knowledge. It used to be the birthplace of alchemists. The usual research will pay more attention to theories... Among these theories, most wizards and ritual masters will never use them in their lives, but they are. The basis for systematizing this knowledge.

"The Black Tower of Danzig inherits the will of Prometheus. Prometheus is the disciple of the mysterious lady... They emphasize the use of knowledge to create inventions that have practical significance and that people can use immediately."

To put it simply, you don't have any very powerful inventions...

Annan was immediately disappointed.

Hearing that this person's title and occupation are "Jade Records", he was the last alchemist in the world and the first transformation wizard in the world - the most important thing is that his name is still Isaac, and he is still a lord, Annan I thought he should be the incarnation of Lord Niu in this world.

It's like Michelangelo, now he's the man in the mirror.

But there are still some differences...

"Wait a moment?"

At this moment, Annan suddenly realized something: "You just said... the Zedihei Tower inherited the will of Prometheus? Could it be that these wizard towers,

Wasn't it brought here by the mysterious lady? "

He also thought that at the very beginning, the mysterious lady drove twenty-four wizard towers-with two teams of floating cannons, and entered the field of vision of the natives of the Yaselan continent.

"……can say that."

Isaac's expression was a little surprised: "You are the Grand Duke of Winter... As a Grand Duke, you can't touch this kind of information? Don't the current wizards know where the Wizard Tower came from?"

"Probably the aftermath of the unification war."

Annan said softly: "After the bloody civil war that the wizards started around the wizard tower ended, many schools lost their inheritance. The remaining survivors have completely faded out of the sight of ordinary people."

"At least in our time, it wasn't a secret... hey."

In the middle of speaking, Isaac interrupted his own words, and sighed softly with some melancholy: "In any case, this history should not be erased."

He pursed his lips: "Where do I start... At the beginning, the Wizard Tower didn't have so many categories, and it wasn't used to support the Great Barrier—it was a weapon and a tombstone."

"tombstone?"

Annan asked: "Whose tombstone is it?

"For example... 'Fire Stealer' Prometheus?"

"That was after the death of Lord Prometheus."

While the elevator was moving downward slowly, Isaac exhaled softly, straightened Annan's collar, and stood up straight again.

He put his left hand in his pocket, while his right hand with many precious stones was straight down.

"The original wizard tower... was a tombstone made of the corpses of twenty-four gods who fell in the Age of Gods. Of course, at that time they were not called gods, but 'lords' or 'living pillars'.

"The gods are dead, but they did not give up protecting the world. They handed over their corpses to the mysterious lady, and asked her to use their corpses to make props that can be used by mortals."

Isaac replied: "It is not in the form of a tower that crosses the living desert, and it is not a simple treasure. It is twenty-four tombstones-the holders of the tombstones have the power to transfer their experience, knowledge and elements The ability to stay and hand over to the successors to inherit.

"This is the oldest spell inheritance. The most primitive spell is a divine spell that has lost its active response and can only respond mechanically. In other words, this tombstone itself is the cornerstone of responding to the divine spell...The successors have dismantled many magic spells from it. The ability that can be used by mortals is the very first spell.

"After arriving in the continent of Yaseland, the 'towers' were built with the help of the power of the spell. The reason why they were built in the form of towers is because the foundations of these towers were the former 'lords' and ' live column'.

"Because the towers are the symbol of the supreme power of the [lord], they are independent of each other and far apart; because the towers are the symbol of the [living pillars] upright, they exist in the form of towers.

"From a distance, it looks like a pillar reaching the sky."

Isaac sighed: "And the word 'God' has been the name of us Arthurians from the very beginning. That's because in the Iron Age, our ancestors called the most primitive superhumans Gods. And after more handsome and powerful elves came across the desert from the east, the former gods became "false gods". But these gods are not high-ranking phantoms, but our ancestors.

"No matter what, we will never forget, and we shouldn't forget... It was the sacrifices of our ancestors that led to the glorious wizard civilization today..."

Isaac looked a bit disappointed, but he still didn't say much.

Because he has already realized what it is for.

...probably not a question of unification wars.

But after the division of the five major kingdoms, in order to erase the fact that "the elves once ruled the Yaslanders" and take care of the pride of the Yaslanders, people tacitly stopped mentioning the truth of "where the spells come from".

They will only refer to the spell as "an ode to reason" and the wizard's tower as "a gift from the lady of mystery". Put the title of the inventor of spells on the mysterious lady.

Instead of emphasizing, this is the weakened power of truth that the sages of the elves dismantled and analyzed from the corpses of ancient gods in the desert. Because humans are not the true successors of the elves.

"After all, wizards are the guardians of the 'world', not the guardians of history."

Annan comforted: "And the priests will not pay attention to the dead gods."

So far, the wizard tower has been protecting human beings and the world today with all its strength.

but……

Annan pondered.

——This choice of wizards cannot be said to be wrong, but it cannot be said to be correct either.

The truth should not be buried, but if the truth is told directly, I am afraid it is not the best way.

Forget it, why not throw this matter to the players and see what they can do...

Annan thought, and took Isaac to the direction of Huskies and the others.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, he heard Husky's very recognizable bright and clear voice.

"It's pretty good, hahahahahaha——"

"Keep your voice down..."

Thirteen Xiang's indistinct voice sounded at the same time.

Annan's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
