Elite Mages’ Academy Chapter 154: Coffin
Entering the manor, Xiao Lin was in a daze. It was like another world. The sound of wind and fragrance outside the manor disappeared without a trace. It was extremely quiet, and only the rustling of two people's footsteps remained. ⊙,
The gate of the castle was not locked, and there were no traps. He and Lilith opened the door easily and almost blinded their eyes by the dazzling light. The entire castle was covered with white crystals. Including every inch of walls and ceilings, they are inlaid with crystal clear diamonds and emeralds, stepping in them, like being in a dreamy crystal palace.
The castle is very empty and very simple. Except for a huge hall, there are no other rooms or side halls. At the end of the hall, there is only a black coffin, which is incompatible with the holy hall.
Xiao Lin and Lilith looked at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and then realized that they gathered on the coffin again, slowly approaching the past by coincidence.
Will Ivanjevic be in the coffin?
The two appeared together. After hesitating for less than a second, they decided to push open the coffin to see what happened. Although doing so was a bit disrespectful to the deceased, what they may have to face is perhaps the biggest mystery in the history of the colonists.
As he approached the past, Xiao Lin suddenly uttered a hey. He found that the coffin cover and the coffin body were slightly staggered a little away, and it was not completely closed.
Could it be that someone came here early to open it?
I don’t know what the coffin is made of. It feels as warm as jade to the touch, but it is very heavy, much heavier than any metal. Xiao Lin and Lilith are also very difficult to work together. They finally push it away. . The two were surprised again.
The coffin is empty. There are no remains. Of course, because of the anticipation in advance, this incident itself is not worth fussing about, but weirdly, there are other sundries in the coffin, such as pens, pocket watches, photos, etc., Xiao Lin picked up the pen and pocket watch and looked at it. Look, there is nothing special about the pen itself, and it can even be said to be old. The pocket watch was even more rusty and stopped working long ago.
These obviously won’t be magical objects, they are more like things from the last century on earth, and Lilith carefully took out the photos. She tried to identify a few times, and her face turned pale when she raised her head, softly speaking. Said: "This is a photo of Ivan. I think this is really the place where Ivan was buried."
Xiao Lin quickly took the photo and looked at it. It turned out to be a very old black and white photo, and the photo was a bit blurry. But it was vaguely distinguishable that it was a very young Russian, and there was a middle-aged woman standing beside him. He asked: "Who is this woman?"
Lilith explained: "His mother, I have been to the museum of the Russian War Academy, where this photo was displayed. It is said that Ivan brought it in when I was young. Wan Zai kept a lot of pictures of his mother to miss."
Xiao Lin's face turned pale, and even his tone was deliberately lowered: "If this is really Ivan's tomb, where is his body?"
When the two looked at the empty coffin again, they both became silent.
Not only did the mystery not be solved, but it became even bigger.
"The good news is that at least we don't have to face that mysterious man. Who knows if he is now an enemy or a friend." Xiao Lin broke the silence half-jokingly.
But this is not actually good news. In fact, Xiao Lin would rather face a living Ivanjevic, whether he is an enemy or a friend, at least then they will have a little understanding of the current situation, and It won't be like a headless fly like it is now. He doesn't know what to do next, and lacks water and food, Xiao Lin doesn't even know how long he can hold on.
The two discussed for a while, and decided to look around inside the castle first. Maybe there is a secret road leading to a place such as a catacomb palace that might exist.
Half an hour passed, but the secret path was not found, but they found something else, more accurately words, among the surrounding crystal walls, when a person leaned up, a row appeared inside. Line black font.
"Ancient Norma!" Xiao Lin has been working with Professor Brown for more than half a month. He comes into contact with this incomprehensible and obscure language every day, so he recognizes it at first sight.
"What's it written?" Lilith doesn't understand this long-lost language.
Xiao Lin tried to observe for a moment. His Ancient Norma level was originally lv1, but during half a month of work, he was transcribing and learning this language at the same time. With his learning mastery effect, Gu Nuo The level of Maryu must be improved, maybe lv2, maybe lv3, so the words in front of them are not completely black.
"You have to give me some time to watch it slowly." Xiao Lin said.
"It's okay, the last thing we lack is time." Lilith shrugged and said ~IndoMTL.com~ and went elsewhere to see what else was missing.
Leaving Xiao Lin sitting next to the crystal wall, looking at it word by word, he didn't intend to translate it all. It was undoubtedly a huge project, but now in this situation, he and Lilith are too embarrassed. Where else can they go after leaving this castle? Do you continue to walk on the grassland where there is nothing until you die?
I hope that there will be messages in these ancient Norma words to leave this **** place, and Xiao Lin has such expectations.
"This word corresponds to the meaning of the sky? No, no, there is a modifier in front of it, which seems to be a color? Then it should be a blue sky? No, the word is not blue, red? Bloody! Well, this sentence should be the **** sky."
"This word refers to the combination of light and darkness? It's not very similar, but it should be this literally, eh, chaos? Yes, it should mean chaos."
"This word is easy to understand, starting point? What the **** is starting point? Starting point can be misunderstood as the meaning of beginning. Starting point? Where to start? Where to end? Well, let's translate it like this first."
……
Although Xiao Lin’s Ancient Norma transcribing work has improved in half a month, it is still very difficult to deal with such a huge amount of translation, but fortunately, he thinks his brain skills are still good, one sentence In the words, he can only understand about half of it. The rest of the content is purely supplemented by his own brain and guessed.
This process was undoubtedly difficult at the beginning. Such incomprehensible text made him even want to turn around and leave directly, but after gradually looking in, especially when he suddenly realized that the content in the crystal wall was a bit like describing the end of the land. This discovery gave his brain supplements a basis for reference immediately, and the content after that seemed to be getting faster and faster. (To be continued.)) Book friends, hurry up and pay attention!
