As more and more clues were discovered, the secrets hidden in this ancient facility seemed to be gradually unveiled, and for the knowledgeable Gao Wen, it seemed not difficult to piece together the truth that happened here from these clues.

It is obvious that this ancient ruin built in the late Sparks was not as simple as he had originally imagined. This ruin is not a cutting-edge development base, nor is it just a taboo research institute that studies the secrets of gods. The hidden facility in a certain alien space in front of us reveals its real purpose: it is a kind of "fortress" built to resist disasters and continue human civilization.

Whether it is the "scientific study of gods" that occurred in the ruins in the mountains, the flesh and blood of the gods in the seal, or the dry corpses in front of them and the last communication from the empire, they are all evidence of confrontation with disasters.

This disaster is most likely the "demonic wave" that destroyed the Gondor Empire seven hundred years ago.

His previous speculation was confirmed: as early as the Spark Age, the magicians of the Gondor Empire realized the existence of the demon tide and made preparations for it three hundred years in advance. Considering the scale of this ruins, the entire incident must have been supported by the Gondor royal family at that time, but he had many things that he couldn't understand:

If humans in the Spark Age realized the existence of the Demon Tide, why did this information not survive? So much so that when the Demon Tide really broke out seven hundred years ago, the human empire was caught off guard and collapsed all over without any resistance.

If the information stored in the communication equipment came from the empire after the outbreak of the demon tide, then it was obvious that the imperial royal family at that time knew the existence of this border fortress, then they should have known that the demon tide was coming, but why did they never take action?

Or... In fact, the Gondor royal family had already taken action at that time, but there was no evidence or news circulating?

This is not impossible, because the demon tide broke out with the imperial capital at the beginning, destroying the entire kingdom's communication network at the first moment. Then no one came out of the hinterland of the empire. Even if the Emperor Gondor did at that time, no one would know...

But no matter what, a disaster predicted by scholars a thousand years ago, and the imperial rulers at that time carried out such a large-scale "preservation project" in private, but in the end no intelligence was left. When the disaster really broke out seven hundred years ago, the empire was confused, which was really incomprehensible.

Even when thinking about the idea of ​​"controlling the leak of news because of worry, because of panic," Gao Wen found this to be incredible.

In addition, he was curious that the mountains ruins of the "survivors" in this facility were blocked a thousand years ago, and the official outbreak of the demon tide was three hundred years after that. During this period, the survivors in the facility were alive for three centuries?

This has completely exceeded the lifespan limit of human beings. Even if powerful extraordinary professionals can use magic power to extend their lifespan, it can only be extended by two or three hundred years. But according to the content of the communication, the people in this facility can not only survive for three hundred years, but also continue to survive after that?

Despite the fact that they were all dead...

Gao Wen's eyes wandered in the hall, trying to find more clues that might bring him a hint. At this time, Hedy, who used the magic light ball at the top of the staff to illuminate the surroundings and carefully studied the remains of the ancient magicians, suddenly made a discovery: "Ancestor! Come and take a look at this!"

Gao Wen came to Hetty and saw Hetty pointing at the back of the chair behind one of the bodies: "There is a line of words here!"

Gao Wen frowned and read the line: "Benjamin Horston, Gondor 1760."

The soldiers around also turned their attention to the seats, and suddenly, everyone found the handwriting that they had overlooked: "There are also here! And here! There are on the backrests of all chairs!"

Gao Wen thought of something in an instant. He looked at the names written on the back of the chair one by one and read it quickly: "Claude Pilin, Gondor 1790... Laufili Pardini, Gondor 1782... Merlia Horston, Gondor 1809... Pardindi, Gondor 1920..."

"These are..." Hetty opened his mouth in surprise, "These people..."

"Their names, and their death year, are only this explanation," Gao Wen said in a deep voice. "These people did not die here at the same time, but were moved here after death. The person who carried them also wrote the name and death date of the deceased on their seats. If I guess correctly... it was the last person who died completed the work, or the relay of the living."

He raised his head and looked around the semicircle hall with nearly a thousand seats, imagining what mentality the survivors who stayed here had spent this long time: "These seats... are their graves..."

"Gondor 1760...Gondor 1790..." Hetty looked at the years on the seats and suddenly realized, "The Gondor calendar ended in 1740! That year, a tide of magic broke out, after that..."

"Yes, the earliest year we see is also after Gondor 1740," Gao Wen nodded heavily. "These people began to die one after another after the outbreak of the demon tide seven hundred years ago, and the most recent year I see is Gondor 2130, three hundred years ago."

Heti showed a sad expression: "In other words, at least some of them lived to that time... At that time, Ansu had been in power for four hundred years... But they had no idea what was going on outside. They were sealed here, and they thought the outside world had been destroyed..."

Gao Wen was also deeply sighing, but he found that Tyre's behavior not far away was a bit strange: Miss Siren rolled her tail around and supported herself into the air like a spring. She was looking around there, with a hint of curiosity and alertness on her face.

He couldn't help asking curiously: "Tyre, what did you find?"

"Shh!" Miss Siren immediately leaned down and she quickly arched to Gaowen. "I don't know if it's an illusion, but I seemed to feel a magical reaction flashing around here just now."

"Magic reaction?" Hetty frowned, "Why didn't I feel it?"

"No matter how powerful you are, can elemental creatures have a sharp perception of magic?" Tyr glanced at Hetty with disdain, "and there are many special magic reactions that you humans cannot feel at all!"

Gao Wen did not take Tyre's words as a joke. He immediately cautiously activated his magic perception skills and made the soldiers around him more alert. However, in the vision of magic perception, all he saw was foggy and there was no special magic reaction at all.

After closing the magic perception, he looked at Tyre, and was about to ask what the magic power the other party sensed looked like, but at this moment, a sudden alert made him suddenly turn his body away. At the same time, the Trail Blazer Sword in his hand blocked it in front of him. Almost at the same time, two dazzling arcs also appeared out of thin air in the air. An arc was hitting the position he had just stood, and the other arc hit the sword body of the Trail Blazer Sword!

With two snaps, two arcs disappeared invisible, and the completely hidden magic reaction before was finally no longer hidden. With a powerful energy fluctuation, Hetty saw a shiny shadow suddenly appear above the open ground at the front of the semicircular hall. It was a creature with a faint outline of humanity. His whole body was shrouded in bright thunder and lightning. A kind of violent energy formed his body and internal organs, and pieces of armor engraved with arcane runes were suspended on the surface of the creature's body, just like rune shackles summoned to the present elemental creature, in an incredible way to maintain the form of this "mana human form".

This creature emerged out of thin air. The powerful energy escaping from his body even twisted the air around him due to the scorching heat. The creature was obviously full of anger and hostility. The two lightning bolts just now were his masterpieces. After showing his body, he immediately brewed a new round of attacks: two bright spherical lightning bolts quickly condensed on both sides of his body!

"Be careful of the ancestor!" Heti instantly cast the most powerful mana shield she could release at her current level and put it on Gao Wen. Then he began to sing various spells that could enhance the resistance of spells. She felt the magic power that could be described as horror from the incredible creature. In the face of this magic, she had no idea how much effect her spell could have.

The soldiers behind Gao Wen reacted after a brief shock. The strange creature was indeed frightening, but the conditioned reflex produced by long-term training still made these elite soldiers subconsciously raise the weapons in their hands. The next second, more than a dozen burning rays bombarded the strange creature with lightning all over their bodies.

The creature probably didn't expect the counterattack to come so quickly, and there was a large number of continuous magic attacks. In amazement, he was hit one after another, and the spherical lightning condensed beside him disappeared with two bangs. However, the only level 2 burning rays obviously could not cause fatal damage to this powerful mana creature that might have survived for hundreds of years. The surface of his body formed by arcane energy rippled layer by layer, and all the attacks were resolved. Then a new lightning ball condensed again beside him.

However, Gao Wen had already relieved the physical paralysis caused by lightning slashing the long sword in this short time difference. Before the new attack arrived, he had raised the long sword, and his body turned into a continuous afterimage in the high-speed charge. All the afterimages gathered in the next second to the mana creature's body with a layer of magical light floating on the surface of the Trailblazer Sword, and the sword blade slashed heavily on the largest silver-white armor piece on the surface of the enemy's body.

At the last moment, this powerful mana creature condensed an extremely strong shield. Although Gao Wen's attack destroyed the opponent's shield, it did not completely split the armor piece. He just slashed the mana creature out. The latter left long burn marks on the ground with a series of lightning. Before he got up, Gao Wen had already rushed up again.

The magic creature condensed a crossed ice pillar in a mess, blocking the sharp sword in Gao Wen's hand. The next second, the screams from his body suddenly stopped Gao Wen's movements.
