MTL - Law of the Devil-Chapter 599 [Night into the Star Museum]
Chapter 599 [Night into the Star Museum]
A group of people flew out of the city and went northwest.
In the middle of the night, I came to the Tulip House in Brokeback Mountain.
Du Wei met Chris in the other house. This guy, who recently appeared as the head of the gryphon breeder, seemed to be very addicted, but let Du Wei feel a little nervous.
This time I came to see Chris, Du Wei did not talk nonsense, straightforwardly said: "I want to go to the front line to fight the sinners."
"Well, I know." Chris holds a little lion in his hand. It is now the body of the attached golden dragon. Although it has become a human figure, there is a dragon. Although the lion is fierce, here Under the suppression of the stock Longwei, was held by Chris, but did not dare to struggle, a look of fear.
The old guy was holding the griffin, and the look was lazy, but it was similar to the lazy man in the emperor who was holding the cat dog and the sun. Du Wei looked dissatisfied and frowned. "I want to bring a team of griffins." front."
"Oh, let's take it." Chris was a little more serious: "Now that I have completed the air-riding training, I can give you a hundred rides."
After saying this, the light in the old guy's eyes dimmed and continued to hold the pet in his arms.
"Chris." Du Wei sighed: "I ran to save you from the cage, but it is not for you to stay here for the elderly! I need your help! I need strength! I am on the front line, I am not afraid Guilty... But what if I met those gods, what do I do? You said that God can't give me, the devil can. But you have been here since you came out with me..."
Speaking of it. Looking at Chris's indifferent look, Du Wei was annoyed: "You promised to give me strength! There is also the treasure of the devil... I need those things!"
"I will give it to you." Chris raised his eyelids: "Now is not."
"It has been a few months." Du Wei is dissatisfied: "How do you count it?"
Chris smiled, the old guy now belongs to the dragon three princes, turned into a human form, it is still handsome, but in the eyes of Chris, but always reveals a sinister evil: "You are in a hurry, Du Wei ?"
"Crap. I am going to go ahead and sinners desperately." Du Wei shook his head. "I don't believe in the goddess. Since she doesn't come out, then I always have to do something... after all, what I say is human."
"I am a fugitive." Chris sighed. "I can't go with you on the front line. I guess the goddess is not sure that I have escaped. Otherwise, I can't sit here so safely." She has been caught back by her. So, I can't show up to help you openly fight, this is one of them."
Chris indulged for a while: "The second... the place that the demon **** left behind... that place. I don't want to go. I know how to go, but what I can tell you is that there are some doorways in that place. Only at special times, under special conditions. The door to where it will open will open! Hey, if it is not so complicated, how can it be over the goddess for 10,000 years!"
"Special time, special conditions?"
Chris smiled. Looking up at the top of the finger, the tone is faint: "When the sun is annihilated by the darkness."
Du Wei left the hospital, and when he was on the road, he thought of Chris.
When the sun is annihilated by the darkness?
Is it night?
No, the old guy said it was a special time. Every day at night, it is not special.
Then...
Du Wei’s eyes lit up: “Total eclipse!”
Then he suddenly cooled down in his heart!
Hell! Total eclipse! !
God knows that the total solar eclipse of this world will wait until when it happens! It only happens once in a few decades! Then I...does not have to wait? ! !
Thinking of this, Du Wei was riding on the horse and couldn't help but take a nap. I have died for a lifetime, and I have saved the old guy of Chris. If I have to wait for decades... then the daylily is cold!
His old Chris is an immortal creature with a life of near infinity, and the soul can be transferred repeatedly. Don't say for decades, even if it is a few hundred years, it can wait!
But... I can't wait for it.
Du Wei couldn't help but raise the whip and took a note, urging his majesty to speed up. Returned to the Imperial Capital.
That night. Du Wei didn't even dare to delay, and immediately brought people. In the middle of the night, I ran to knock on the gates of the Empire’s “Star Temple”.
The Astrology Pavilion of the Roland Empire is a national astronomical institution. Of course, in the Roland Empire, this astrology hall is not the kind of astronomical observatory in the true sense, nor is it like the American nasa.
This place is more of an astrologer's service department.
People in this world believe in astrology and believe that astrology can see the heavens or the will of the gods from the stars in the sky. Even in the palace, the position of the court astrologer is maintained throughout the year. Every major national event, such as National Day, Memorial Day, will use the court astrologer to observe the astrology and carry out some divination.
The curator of the current Star Museum is also the chief astrologer of the court.
Objectively speaking, although this place has not much to do with the real "astronomy", it is a real **** club with a strong feudal superstition, even more than the church. However, historically, the Imperial Land Star Museum has produced a few great people.
Among them, Du Wei Di is the former great-grandmother Semel, and the director who once served as the imperial astrology museum in the past is very honorable.
Being able to serve as the curator is almost the same as indicating that you are the first astrologer recognized in the mainland.
The astrology museum also supports a lot of astrologers. On weekdays, it is also responsible for the divination of the imperial nobles, and the daily affairs of marriage and funeral, and the existence of these astrologers.
The people here, although not able to say how much power, but the status is remarkable. Many nobles also respect the people of the Star Museum.
In the middle of the night. Du Wei, no matter how much, directly sent a team of cavalry to knock on the door. In the end, if there was no one inside, someone finally ran out to open the door. I was afraid that the cavalry of the northwestern Du Wei’s men would be directly slamming.
Du Wei himself, who also owns the title of a court astrologer, almost forgot his title. In any case, there are too many titles on his head: the magician, the Duke of the Empire, the Imperial Admiral, and the former Northwest Military and Military Minister. Member of the Imperial Magic Society, Dean of the Imperial Magic Academy, Dean of the Imperial Military Academy, Court Magician, Court Scholar...
Too many titles, Du Wei himself is too lazy to remember. But today, the title of this court astrologer has given him great use.
Because the Star Museum has a special rule. Moreover, it is also made by the imperial state law: no outsider can enter the astrology hall to access the information!
Because there are a lot of secrets in the astrology hall, they are all over the years, every major event in the country. The results of the astrologer's divination are naturally good and bad.
Although this so-called divination, in Du Wei's view, the vast majority are deceptive tricks. But after all, people in this world believe in these things, and once the national events have unfavorable results in divination, the empire will secretly archive these results in order to maintain the stability of the people.
Therefore, the Stars Museum, no one can go in and access the information.
Fortunately, Du Wei had a title for a court astrologer on his head. He was not in the ban.
Waking up in the middle of the night. Seeing a group of wolf-like cavalry rushing into the air, the astrologists in the Astrology Hall are mostly weak people. Where have you seen this? On the spot, he was fainted by two. Du Wei did not talk nonsense. He directly clarified his identity and said that he would like to borrow some of the information kept in the Star Museum.
The curator of the Star Museum quickly ran out to face the imperial red man, although he was the chief astrologer of the court. I also dare not put it on the shelf. This duke adult can be regarded as his own peer, and people are also astrologers. The curator still wanted to be close to the set, but Du Wei was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He plunged into the archives of the library, and found a lot of things in the middle of the night in a pile of old materials covered with dust. !
eclipse!
Then the bright man lit the light, Du Wei sat on the dusty warehouse floor, covering his nose and frowning.
Eclipse... eclipse...
Du Wei turned over one night, and when it was bright, I finally found what I was looking for.
Although the world's astrologers are a purely superstitious and divinative activity, at least they have recorded some strange heavens. The eclipse of the eclipse is naturally included.
When Du Wei found a line on a dilapidated parchment, his heart immediately cooled half.
"In the summer of the 1974 empire, in the afternoon, the sky and the sun are invading the darkness... The heavens and the earth are five light, the white is like the night..."
Fortunately, Du Wei is very familiar with the ancient grammar of Roland's mainland script, and it is not too difficult to read these ancient records.
But... the most recent total solar eclipse occurred two hundred years ago... When will the next time wait? !
Continue to find... Finally, I found the content that gave Du Wei a sigh of relief.
In the Astrology Hall, there are several records of this strange celestial eclipse. The earliest total solar eclipse record is more than 800 years old. Du Wei simply calculated that the time of the total solar eclipse in this world is not very accurate. Come, it should be one of the two hundred years, of course, and it cannot be ruled out that some records are missing or missing.
In this way, the last total solar eclipse was more than two hundred years ago, then, next time, it should not be too far.
If you are lucky, if you are unlucky in the near future, you may be waiting for more than a decade.
This result is mixed.
After getting the result, Du Wei carefully flipped it again. After confirming that there was no omission, he stood up. The air in the storehouse was really bad. The air was full of spoiled dust.
Just as Du Wei was reading the materials in the warehouse, there were his guards and cavalry guarding the door outside, and no entry was allowed to disturb him. The astrologers who were woken up in the middle of the night, including the curator, could only stay outside.
Just as Du Wei patted the dust on his body, when he was about to leave, he turned and accidentally saw the innermost corner of the storeroom on an iron frame with a strange symbol...
Du Wei simply swept away at random, but saw the symbol, but his heart moved.
Subconsciously went over, on the iron frame, placed in a row of densely packed gray soil boxes, the box is naturally added with the preservation of sheepskin volume information.
But in the corner of this shelf, a black box looks very weird: the color is black and not bright, but with a faint luster, at first glance, some can't tell whether the box is wood or iron. quality.
The mark above, half of it was covered by dust, and Du Wei gently reached out and wiped it, which revealed the original appearance.
Du Wei’s expression was shocked, just because of this mark, he recognized it!
The fingers touched up, and the seven protruding patterns, like the stars, cleverly formed a contour like a spoon.
Big Dipper! ?
Du Wei took the box carefully and smashed it twice in his hand. At the opening of the box is a pull ring, and Du Wei stretches his hand in a subconscious way.
There are two sounds, and there seems to be a sound that rotates inside.
Yi? Actually mechanical?
Then, suddenly, between the opening of the box, two small holes were revealed, and two black radiances emerged from the inside, and the door of the Duwei was shot!
Du Wei's eyes flashed, his fingers stretched out in front of him, and he slammed two times. He reached out and looked at it, but between the two fingers, there were only two cigarettes and so long!
The arrow was black and black, but I didn't know what paint was applied. There was no trace of rust. Above the arrow, with a touch of blue light, Du Wei's heart moved, sniffed and sniffed, and immediately recognized it, this is a poisonous magical potion.
His curiosity was hooked up!
