The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death

Catherine explained to Alice their hairstyles in the cave, and her tone was obviously dissatisfied with those thieves—after all, the actions of those thieves obviously destroyed the ancient relics, and they may have taken away some precious treasures. Magic props, "Fortunately, the murals in the cave you care about are all intact."

After all, the murals are not very attractive to thieves. Except for some historians, most people are not interested in them, so the thieves may just take some photos and leave without destroying the murals— —It would take a lot of time to destroy the murals all over the cave, so the thieves would not be so free.

And it doesn't matter if those thieves took some things from this burrow. Since Flami could divination the soul breath of the first-generation hero from here some time ago, it means that the breath must still be in this burrow. The hero's soul, or just the props contaminated with her soul breath, must still be in this cave and have not been taken away by those thieves.

"Hey, you all pay attention to your work! Don't keep staring at Mr. Brave!"

While Alice was looking at the burrow, the surrounding members of the guard squad were also looking at Alice. This obviously aroused Catherine's dissatisfaction. She frowned and gave a light drink to the people around, telling them to Don't stare at Alice anymore - after all, although Alice agreed to tell them the identity of the brave, Alice obviously has important things to do now, and these people can't always let these people watch.

As the leader of the Imperial Guard, Catherine is obviously quite majestic. When her scolding sound fell, the members of the Imperial Guard who were still watching Alice had no choice but to disperse, and Alice could still vaguely hear it. Although their mutterings were very soft, Alice could hear them clearly with her current physical fitness.

Basically, they complain about "It's too cunning for the captain to be so close to the princess", "I want to get to know the princess too", "That old man insists on me doing geological monitoring", etc., except for those who are entrusted with the work , just wanted to get close to Alice, and expressed dissatisfaction with Catherine's violent expulsion.

Alice herself didn't expect that she was quite popular. It seems that this face is indeed quite deceiving - at least from their speeches, it can be heard that their love for herself is more inclined to a kind of love for the little ones. The girl's love is not because she is a brave man, and she is not even called a brave man, but a princess.

Luna, who was following Alice, glanced at the members of the Imperial Guards, and then stood a little closer to Alice. She didn't know whether it was because she was so close to Alice that she had a sense of psychological superiority, or whether it was because she was so close to Alice. Seeing Alice so popular created a sense of crisis.

But no matter how the Imperial Guards complained, they obviously could only follow Catherine's request and continue to enforce martial law around them to prevent anyone from accidentally discovering the strangeness of this split space. Commissioned by the official researcher of the Lanfen Kingdom, various data collections are being carried out here.

After all, this cave is an undiscovered archaeological site, and there are still murals that have existed for tens of thousands of years, so after Alice finishes what she has to do, the Gryffin Kingdom will also send people here for a while. Come on, before that, you can only entrust these Imperial Guards to help collect data.

"Then brave man, please, we will help you guard here."

Seeing that these team members dispersed and continued to work on their own work, Catherine nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Alice and Luna, and said, "However, after you come out, I still hope that you can Let me explain the situation... After all, we are also very concerned about the matter of Mr. Brave."

The meaning of the subtext is that Hite is a little flustered. Seeing Alice, a brave man, is so busy. As the king of the human kingdom, Hite and the others obviously feel a little bit confused, so I hope Alice can tell them what happened. , so that they can prepare mentally in advance.

Alice can understand this point, and some things can indeed be explained to Height, such as the matter of the burrow, and the seal of the first generation of the devil-it doesn't matter to tell Height about these things, although it is a bit awkward to say so. Well, but Haight couldn't be of much help anyway.

Nodding to Catherine, Alice and Luna walked into the cave—there was a ladder going all the way down the cave. It seemed that the person who dug out the cave had also considered the issue of entry and exit.

There are some lights on the walls of the cave that are maintained by the magic power in the magic stone. Alice glanced at them, and there are probably these lights on the walls of the entire cave, but not every light is on, about every two lights are on. There will be three to five lamps that are extinguished in between - either the magic power in the magic stone is consumed, or the thieves snatch the sheep and dig up the magic stone in the lamp.

However, this kind of magic stone used to light up lights is generally not very valuable. They are the most primitive magic stones that have not been carved, and their value is not much better than the light bulbs on the earth. The probability is still that the mana is completely consumed.

Soon, Alice and the others came to the bottom of the burrow, and what came into view was a huge platform—the burrow was about the size of a football field, and the walls were densely engraved with murals and words. Seeing it from a distance may even be uncomfortable for cryptophobic sufferers.

"It's really big...it's much bigger than I imagined."

Alice squinted her eyes and looked at this huge burrow—on the platform surrounded by countless murals and texts, it was an empty land that had been turned over by people. It seemed that it was indeed the same as what Catherine said. There should be some things, but they have all been dug out by thieves and taken away.

Fortunately, this burrow does not seem to be a tomb, otherwise the thieves would probably be doing tomb robbery.

Chapter 690 Miria is feeling uncomfortable all over

Although the center of the burrow is empty, the walls around the burrow are covered with dense pictures and words. Alice glanced at it for a while, and saw a lot of magic learning methods, as well as some magic effects and usage experience. And so on, special magic reinforcement was used to prevent the text from being weathered.

Although some characters have obviously changed in shape because of tens of thousands of years, they are still basically readable. If Alice wants to learn the magic engraved on these murals, then it is not a big problem, just Many magics here exist in modern times and have been improved, so there is no need to learn them.

Of course, in addition to most of the magic that has been improved in modern times, there are also some magic that have not been handed down. For example, one of the main purposes of Alice's trip - the spiritual forbidden spell called "False Fantasy", This magic is probably because it is too difficult for ordinary people to learn as a forbidden spell, so it has not been handed down. It is just that the method of practicing it is engraved in the murals here.

In other words, the murals here can also be regarded as the original magic book of the forbidden spell "False Fantasy".

"This place existed as a library tens of thousands of years ago. After all, tens of thousands of years ago, the civilization of that era had not yet developed to the present level, and the portable recording methods were basically animal skins, bamboo slips and the like. thing."

Andusia sat on Alice's shoulder and said, after entering this cave, there are no outsiders here, and Catherine also stayed outside the cave, so she can naturally speak, "But for some large settlements In other words, if all their knowledge and history are to be recorded on these things, hunting and logging alone will take half of the time, which is not cost-effective."

"So they chose local materials, used stone walls as a storage medium, engraved their magic and some important histories on these stone walls, and developed magic that can maintain these murals for a long time, so that these murals will not be destroyed. Worn and worn over time...and kept like that for tens of thousands of years."

Milia's soul also got out of the bag on Alice's waist, and seeing the magic engraved in the cave, her eyes lit up, "These murals seem to record a lot about the brave and the devil, it seems This settlement must have a close relationship with the brave or the devil, that's why they spent so much time recording the history of the devil and the brave."

"It's really surprising. I thought that seeing so much ancient magic, you would rush out of my bag in excitement, and then slap these walls, wishing to rub your soul into it."

Alice looked at Milia's soul floating beside her, and was also a little surprised. With Milia's research-crazed character, she thought that Milia would fly away immediately, but she didn't expect to be able to restrain herself. Don't you think that some ancient magic left on these murals doesn't appeal to her?

"How should I put it... Most of the magic principles here are too primitive, and most of these magics have been improved in modern times, so instead of reading these magics, it is better to read modern textbooks. It's exciting that there's still some magic here that hasn't been handed down."

Milia sighed, and put away her slightly excited gaze just now, "However, at least half of these magics have no practical value and have not been handed down. The remaining half should be because learning is too difficult. I'm quite interested in this part of the magic, but there are not many of them, so I'm not in a hurry... Let's help you get rid of the magic of 'False Illusion' first."

It seems that although Milia is very interested in those magics, she still knows the priorities. The top priority now is to help Alice find a way to remove the magic of "false fantasy", and then Luna will extract the memory in the soul of the loli devil Fragments, restore these fragments into complete memories, and get information from the first generation of demon kings.

Fortunately, although the place is quite big, it took less than half an hour for Alice and the others to find the magic of "false fantasy" in the murals carved on the ceiling. record of.

"It is indeed this magic... the function description is the same as the photo taken by the thief."

It was Luna who found this magic. After Alice and the others approached, they took out the information given by the thieves and compared the photos on the information with the text on the mural in front of them. They were exactly the same—except that In the materials given by the thieves, only the function and effect of this magic were recorded, and no detailed learning method was recorded.

That's right, the thief is not interested in this magic, and it is impossible to learn it after recording it. Even the reason why this part of the mural recording the magic was photographed was just luck that he happened to take a part of it.

If the content of Alice's reward was not too similar to this magic, it is estimated that the thief would not have remembered that the mural he had photographed contained this magic.

"Is this the magic?"

Probably because he realized that the next thing was related to himself, the loli devil who had been lying dead in Alice's bag also appeared, and as always, got out of the bag with the drink bottle and flew to Alice's side , looked curiously at the magic recorded on the mural.

"Sure enough, it's magic from more than 1 years ago. The principle is really simple and crude... No wonder it hasn't been handed down. It's true that ordinary people can't learn it."

Milia was the one who had the most thorough understanding of the principles of magic among the few people present, so she roughly scanned the magic on the mural, and then she knew what the principle of the magic was—but knowing it was actually It made her even more embarrassed, "But this is troublesome."

"What's wrong? Since the principle of this magic is simple and rude, it should be easy to crack, right?"

Alice didn't understand, but she watched the spell-casting process. If she practiced for a few hours, then Alice should be able to cast this forbidden spell perfectly--but the problem is that she is still confused about the principle, like Although she memorized a formula, she didn't know how the formula was derived.

"This magic is not as simple and rude as usual...but its most brutal thing is that after this magic seals the memory, it cannot be unlocked."

Milia shook her head with an uncomfortable expression on her face—for a researcher like her who pursues the principles of magic, this kind of rough magic makes her feel uncomfortable just looking at it, "If you want to give an example , This magic is like a dead knot tied on the memory, once it is sealed, it cannot be untied...unless the dead knot is cut off directly."

Hearing this, Alice finally understood the composition of this magic... It is no wonder that the first generation Demon King used this trick to seal the memory in the Lori Demon King's mind, because this magic cannot be unlocked by normal methods.

Chapter 690 君の名は。

"Since there is no normal cracking method, there must be some brute force cracking method? Just like what you said just now, since this magic is like a knot in the memory, and there is no way to untie it, then there should be a way Just cut this dead knot right?"

Alice's knowledge of the basics of magic is relatively weak. Although she doesn't quite understand the principle of this magic, if it follows what Milia said, then there should be a brute force solution if there is no normal way to undo it. means?

Just like the opponent throws a fireball, if you can't dispel the fireball by dispelling the magic power, you can also directly throw a larger water polo, and you can also violently dispel the magic - of course, ordinary people can deal with it The fireball technique doesn't really need to spend energy to dissolve the magic power, but that's probably what it means.

"Spiritual magic is a special kind of magic, and it doesn't have attribute restraint like elemental magic, so it's naturally impossible to break it with violence like water and fire."

As a great magician of the spiritual department, Luna explained to Alice the violent cracking method of spiritual magic, "So if you want to crack it, the only way is to start from the inner spirit—as long as her spirit is short-lived." The skyrocketing and violent fluctuations of time should be able to break free from this mental bondage."

"It's like locking you in a box. The strength of this box is almost just within the range of your physique, so you can't break free... But if your physique suddenly becomes stronger, and your body becomes bigger Then it is possible to forcibly break the box."

Although Andusia doesn't have a deep understanding of the principles of spiritual magic, she is at least much better than the half-assed Alice, so she can also add to Luna's explanation, "This situation can also be applied to other people. Some special types of magic, such as possession magic, if a magician in the possession state is attached to a stronger existence, it is possible to break his original possession state."

"It turns out that relying on magic has this kind of cracking method."

Alice suddenly realized that, to put it bluntly, it was to use stronger attributes of the same type to forcibly break through the original magic shackles. Psychic magic relied on a strong spirit, and possession-based magic relied on stronger possessions—but obviously, in a short-term It is a bit unrealistic to increase the spiritual power of Lori Demon King in a large amount within a short period of time.

Unless Alice is willing to sacrifice some innocent people, let Lori Demon King absorb all the soul energy of those innocent people like the image in the previous soul key, maybe after sacrificing enough people, her soul can be Elevated to a level sufficient to break the shackles of "false illusions".

However, Alice is obviously unable to do such a thing. She may be willing to gamble on certain things, but this kind of behavior that will inevitably sacrifice innocent people should be avoided—of course, if you have to choose, it is not impossible In addition, Alice can also choose some villains to serve as the soul nourishment of the Lolita Demon King.

After all, Alice is a brave man now, and she still has the identity of the princess of the Kingdom of Gryffindor. As long as she tells Height and Catherine, those guys who have committed serious crimes will definitely be sent over by various human kingdoms—they are all death sentences anyway. , handing over to the brave to execute is the same.

But the Lolita Demon King obviously doesn't like this kind of behavior. She is the part of the soul that represents the humanity of the first generation Demon King. She probably doesn't want to absorb the soul energy of these people like she did before when she was irrational.

Luna obviously knew this too, so Luna didn't propose to let her improve her mental power at all, but directly gave another option, which is to let the Lolita Demon King experience a short-term surge and violent fluctuations. In this case, The spirit will appear in a state similar to the expansion of a sponge. Although it is not long-lasting and it is not a real spiritual improvement, it is enough to break free from the shackles.

"But how can I make my spiritual power skyrocket and fluctuate violently?"

Because it's about her, the soul of the Demon King Lolita also joined the discussion. Since the first generation Demon King can cast the spiritual forbidden spell "False Illusion", it means that she must have a certain understanding of spiritual magic, but Lolita Demon King Soul obviously doesn't know anything about this aspect. It is estimated that the memory about spiritual magic has been destroyed and turned into memory fragments.

"It's very easy to increase your spiritual power... just forcefully inject spiritual power into your spirit. Both Luna and I can do this. Although this kind of mental power will be lost quickly, it can indeed make you There was a short-term spike in mental strength."

Milia took over the conversation and replied, "But it's not enough to just increase your mental power. It's like a soft sponge swelling up, and it has no destructive power. To break free from the shackles of your mind, you have to let your mind It is only necessary for your strength to fluctuate violently... and it cannot be purely negative fluctuations, such as exerting a mental shock on you, such fluctuations will only make your spirit sluggish."

"What should I do?"

The Loli Demon King scratched his head, and flew around Alice with the bottle, looking like Alice's satellite, "I can't think of anything related to spiritual magic now, if I let myself It may be a little difficult to produce mental fluctuations..."

"Your situation is just right... Your mental power now has a lot of memory fragments, and these memory fragments can be healed, just like people who have lost their memory will suddenly regain their memory."

Luna said to Loli Demon King, "And the moment the memory fragments heal, there will be violent mental fluctuations. Just find a way to restore some of your memories."

"And it can't be an ordinary memory. It must be an unforgettable memory, a memory that lasts a lifetime. When such a memory is restored, the mental fluctuations produced are large enough."

Milia also added, "And intellectual memory may not work either. For example, if we teach you spiritual magic now, that's not restoring your memory about spiritual magic, it's just adding new memories to you. "

"Then what memory meets the requirements?"

Alice frowned and asked.

"……I understand."

Andusia understood what Luna and Milia meant in an instant. She glanced at the Demon King Lolita and said, "Your name!"

Chapter 690 Finding the First Hero

The name of the first demon king can almost be called an eternal mystery in this era, because no matter whether it is a mural or a document, as long as it records the deeds of the first demon king, she will always be called "the first demon king" A few words, her name is still a mystery, and it often arouses people's daydreams.

In the modern age where information has entered a high-speed world, even if you search for the name of the first generation of devil kings on the Monet, you will only get some names made up by the authors of brave novels—this is a bit like some fan fictions that Alice read before traveling. In the absence of a real name in the original work, the author can only make up a name himself.

Moreover, once these names are used a lot by people, they may be regarded as orthodox names—of course, these names are not completely made up, or they may be the names guessed by the author based on certain clues. Maybe a blind cat can bump into a dead mouse, and it is also possible that these authors just got the name right.

However, this kind of coincidence did not happen to the first generation of the devil. After knowing that the real name of the first generation of the devil was needed to break free from the shackles of the magic of "false fantasy", Alice took out her mobile phone on the spot, and then searched on the spot. I read the name of the first generation demon king used by various brave novels on the Internet to the loli demon king.

Obviously, these names didn't have any effect. After hearing these names, the Loli Demon King just shook his head helplessly, and said that these names don't even heal her memory fragments, and they don't even feel familiar at all. Surely it couldn't be her real name.

You must know that the soul of the Lolita Demon King is the part of the soul of the first generation Demon King as a human being, so the Lolita Demon King can definitely sense the real name that the first generation Demon King got from the human period—even if the first generation Demon King himself heard it If there is no response, the loli devil must have responded.

"So in the end, I still have to ask the Yimir Kingdom to help find the information?"

Alice scratched her head in distress. According to what Elder said before, the place where the first demon king first appeared and disappeared was the Hans Kingdom tens of thousands of years ago—that is, the current Yimir Kingdom. And it is a coincidence that , The country of Hans implemented a census system a long time ago, and left archives.

It’s just because the management model tens of thousands of years ago was too backward, and it was too expensive to consume materials, so after a period of implementation, there will be no more articles. Think about it, people didn’t even invent paper suitable for writing tens of thousands of years ago. Recording these documents is just an astronomical figure for animal skins, wooden boards and slates, and it would be strange if they could be implemented.

But even so, there were indeed population records documents during that period, and those documents were collected as precious historical materials in the museum of the Yimir Kingdom, but Alice is a brave man after all, as long as she says, that person The king who just took office must be happy to help Alice.

And more importantly, now Alice and the others are very clear about what the first generation of devils looked like, and they can directly compare them according to their appearance. The archives from tens of thousands of years ago may not be recorded with valuables such as magic photo stones. , but the image is still there.

As long as the painter's technique is not too bad, then you can still compare the portrait with the appearance of the Lolita Demon King, and find the files left by the first generation Demon King as a human being. By then, you can understand the name and identity of the first generation Demon King as a human being. arrive.

"The king of the Yimir Kingdom...is called Celtic, and is Lacey's father. Judging by his attitude towards Alice, he should very much hope to have a good relationship with Alice, so he will definitely not refuse this request. .”

Luna said this - after all, in order to establish a good relationship with Alice, the king even kept his own daughter with Alice. It can be sent out, which shows that he really wants to have a good relationship with the brave Alice.

"Forget it, although we can't solve this matter right away, at least we have found a way... After returning from here, please contact the Celtic king immediately, after all, that thing is also a cultural relic that has entered the museum , it's better to be careful."

Alice sighed, although she couldn't immediately get rid of the bondage of "false fantasy" on the soul of the Lolita Demon King, but at least she found a suitable method, as long as she used the name of the first generation Demon King to stimulate the spirit of the Lolita Demon King, and then let Milia and Luna should be able to break through its seal by injecting huge spiritual power.

This is already the best solution that Luna and Milia can think of. If even this cannot break the seal, then I am afraid that there is really no way to rely on the memory fragments of the Lori Demon King. Alice and the others can only It is possible to re-investigate the information of the first Demon King from another method.
