These spells not only guarded against possible unknown threats, but also allowed the two of them to more clearly sense the secrets and clues hidden within the ruins.
As they ventured deeper, the ancient and mysterious aura emanating from the ruins grew ever stronger.
Every temple was like a weighty history book, recording the splendor and secrets of that distant era.
They moved through the crumbling remains of one temple after another, their eyes dazzled by the exquisite murals adorning the walls.
Though at least a hundred thousand years had passed, the murals remained brilliantly colored and lifelike.
With vivid and delicate strokes, they outlined the general contours of that distant and mysterious civilization.
Even more surprisingly, during their exploration, Moros and Vill-V also unexpectedly discovered a great deal of precious ancient knowledge.
This knowledge might not have surpassed modern human civilization in depth, but the perspectives and methods of thought it displayed were utterly different from those of this era, providing Vill-V with a constant stream of inspiration and profound insight.
However, these valuable gains were not the only purpose of their journey.
After carefully exploring the temple ruins around the outskirts, the two decisively drove toward the relatively well-preserved central temple located at the heart of the ruins.
"Did you see it... Moros?"
Vill-V's voice carried a faint, barely perceptible tremor.
She turned her head to look at the man beside her, seemingly seeking his comfort.
Just then, Vill-V's gaze had been deeply drawn to a mural in the main hall of the central temple.
Having endured the passage of countless years, the mural still radiated a soul-stirring power that made it impossible to look away.
Etched into the stone wall of the central temple, it told the final chapter of the civilization that had built these ruins.
