"This is... ah, the legendary spatial confinement and sealing runes. I never thought I would actually see these legendary things."
Grandpa Cain excitedly tugged at his white beard, his trembling old hand touching the pale yellow wall again and again. He explained to Sun Fei that the flowing, changing silver arcs on the wall were ancient characters, actually Runes of the Gods from mythology, possessing incredible spatial confinement and barrier abilities. This secret room was very likely created within the endless void turbulence, relying on these flowing silver arc runes.
Sun Fei nodded.
Although he didn't quite understand this incredible method, it was similar to his previous guess. The walls of the secret room shimmered with a pale yellow light, indicating that it was indeed created directly in the void using Big Hand, rather than being a real earthen or stone structure.
"Unfortunately, the techniques used to attach these runes are far too profound, and the runes themselves are constantly shifting, unable to reveal their complete form."
Grandpa Cain exclaimed in regret. With his current abilities, if he couldn't completely copy all the runes, he couldn't reconstruct the principles and mysteries of these space-confining runes based solely on the fleeting glimpses of scales and claws that appeared and disappeared on the pale yellow wall. He could only slowly study and decipher them.
If one could master these runes, which are considered miraculous, then as long as one has sufficient strength, one could directly create space in the void, and even establish castles and city-states would be within reach.
Because both Diablo and the Azeroth Continent have legends of the gods creating a Space of the Gods, which is an immense power and might, almost equivalent to creation itself.
"These silver arc runes can be studied slowly; in any case, this secret chamber won't disappear."
Seeing that Uncle Cain's anxious expression resembled that of a child envious of a "Three Good Student" award, Sun Fei found it amusing and set up Summon points for Uncle Cain and the nun.
In this way, under the effect of the divine skill [ Summon ], they can maintain a certain amount of time each day to conduct research in the secret chamber, much like how the two of them can spend a certain amount of time each day teaching courses at Chambord University in the [ City of Heroes ] of the Underground Grotto Labyrinth City behind Chambord City. Of course, with Sun Fei's current Spiritual Power, the two of them can only stay in the world outside the Diablo World for four hours and thirty minutes. The upper limit of this time cannot be changed for the time being, and the two of them need to allocate their time between the [ City of Heroes ] and the Golden Skeleton Secret Chamber themselves.
Sister Akara's gaze remained fixed on the black book, [ The Demon King's Wisdom ], floating in mid-air in the center of the secret chamber.
"Praise be to God! This is an incredible book, a veritable encyclopedia beyond magic and martial arts. It contains so much, a vast ocean of knowledge, and all of it is filled with unbelievable techniques... wisdom. Such a book truly deserves the title of 'wisdom,' but I don't know why it's called ' The Demon King's Wisdom.' I think it should be called 'God's Wisdom'!"
Within a short time, the nun had already read most of the contents of the black book, which was automatically flipping through.
Unlike Sun Fei, who was only a half-baked learner of ancient scripts, the nun's mastery of the ancient scripts of the Diablo World meant she had long since mastered the ancient scripts of the Azeroth Continent. This progress was partly due to her almost obsessive love and dedication to ancient things, and partly due to the subtle connection between the Diablo World and the Azeroth Continent. Besides the similarities in the principles of magic and some combat techniques, there were even similarities in the ancient scripts, which allowed the nun to make connections between different things.
Grandpa Cain finally shifted his gaze from the pale yellow wall.
However, this old man wasn't very interested in the details of architecture, mechanisms, armor making, sword and weapon forging, mining and smelting recorded in [ The Demon King's Wisdom ]. Due to his professional instincts, his attention was focused on the few void stone lamps that imprisoned [ The Demon King's Wisdom ] and the stone chains that connected them.
"Oh God, I've witnessed another miracle..." His withered old hands rubbed the rough stone chain, his eyes fixed on the intermittently appearing runes on the void stone lamp. He trembled and roared in disbelief, "Ahhhhh, these are miniature binding runes! Ahahaha, these runes really do exist! The legends are true, the legends are true..."
Seeing the old man's completely obsessive behavior, Sun Fei knew that it was impossible to ask him for more details under such circumstances.
Once Uncle Cain enters a state of madness, he becomes incoherent and rambling. Apart from his workaholic brain barely remaining conscious, his communication ability instantly regresses to the level of a fetus.
After thinking for a moment, Sun Fei took out the stone door covered with mysterious stone runes that he had found at the headquarters from the school, as well as the nine mysterious rune stones on the wall of the underground skeletal pit, from his storage ring. He placed them in the secret room for Uncle Cain and Sister Aunt to study, while he turned around and stepped into the Teleport to leave.
"Oh my God, this is..."
"Hahaha, there really is such a thing!"
The moment Sun Fei stepped into the Teleport, he heard the two 'mad scientists,' the female cultivator and the old man, roused from their shock by their frenzied exclamations.
Emerging from the Teleport, Sun Fei pondered for a moment, then, still in [ Barbarian Mode ], led the beautiful mercenary Elena into the third act of the Diablo World's map, [ Kurast Docks ], to begin leveling up by killing monsters.
Prior to this, Sun Fei had already completed the first quest, [ The Golden Bird ], on the third act's world map, [ Kurast Docks ].
One of the rewards for this mission was a magic potion that could permanently increase maximum health by 20. Sun Fei did not take it immediately, but kept it for the time being.
At this point, the Barbarian character is level 45, the Assassin is level 39, the Paladin is level 41, the Paladin is level 39, the Druid is level 39, the Necromancer is level 37, and the Amazon is level 40. Except for the Barbarian, the Assassin, Mage, Paladin, and Druid have all completed the quests on the second act's world map, [ Lut Gholein ]. Only the Necromancer and Amazon characters need to complete the final quest to kill Duriel before they can complete the game with all seven classes.
However, the Zenit Empire is currently facing a severe and chaotic situation, with increasingly powerful adversaries emerging one after another. Sun Fei urgently needs to improve his abilities to gain overwhelming power. Therefore, he has temporarily modified his previous upgrade strategy, no longer pursuing balanced development of the seven classes or the uncertain rewards for clearing the seven classes. Instead, he is focusing on improving his current strongest Barbarian character, striving to reach the ranks of Moon Class powerhouses as soon as possible.
It took more than three hours to complete the second quest in [ Kurast Docks ], [ The Blade of the Old Religion ], and the Barbarian character leveled up by 46.
The beautiful mercenary Elena's strength has greatly improved. At this time, she is level 40 and can switch between the four major magic systems of ice, fire, electricity and poison more freely. Her cooperation with Sun Fei has also become more and more skillful. In the midst of battles with flying flesh and blood and hordes of monsters and demons, the two can understand each other's intentions with just a glance or a movement. They are in perfect harmony and are almost like one person.
The feelings between the two were also slowly changing.
Although the two hadn't taken things further since their impromptu encounter in the underground chamber, Sun Fei could now clearly sense that the beautiful, Valkyrie -like [ Flower of the Rogue ] no longer saw herself merely as Sun Fei dispensable servant. Sun Fei could feel the fiery heart beneath Elena's cold, elegant, and beautiful body, as radiant as an iceberg. Their relationship was casual, as intimate as that of close boyfriend and girlfriend.
In moments of respite from battle, Sun Fei would gently hold Elena's soft, boneless hand. The two would slowly walk through mountains of corpses and seas of blood from demons and monsters. Although there was no tender romance under the moon, their silence spoke volumes.
After their game time ended for the day, the two left the Diablo World together.
"Everything is normal, no unexpected situations have occurred, and the Knights' Hall cavalry have not reappeared."
Upon returning to the Chambord camp, Sun Fei's personal bodyguard Fernando Torres, immediately reported to His Majesty the King everything that had happened in the past four hours. The situation was roughly as Sun Fei had predicted. After what happened that morning, the Knights' Hall's forces seemed to be slowly quieting down again, and there was no retaliatory action that everyone had feared.
Sun Fei slowly walked around the camp. After the empire's search operation ended, the people of the vassal state were allowed to move around in the twenty-mile camp area. At the same time, Emperor Yassin's imperial decree was also issued, and the operation to hunt down the assassin came to an end. Two days later, the Martial Combat Competition of the vassal state would officially begin.
The focus of all countries has finally begun to shift to the major competition.
Sun Fei dismissed his guards and wandered aimlessly through the camp for a while. Unknowingly, he arrived outside the Kingdom of Byzantium camp. From afar, he saw that this small, previously deserted and despised camp was now bustling with activity, filled with a constant stream of people. These were all envoys from princes of the vassal King of the young King of Byzantium Constantine, eager to befriend him. Everyone knew that behind Constantine stood the now-powerful King of Chambord King of Chambord, who trusted and favored them greatly, so they all came to cultivate a powerful relationship. These people feared Sun Fei and dared not approach him, but hoped to gain some benefits in the upcoming tournament by forming an alliance with Kingdom of Byzantium.
Sun Fei looked from afar and saw the young Byzantium king in the camp, full of vigor and high spirits. Surrounded by people, he spoke eloquently and became the center of attention. He was no longer the timid and hesitant man he had been before. Knowing that this young king had gradually seized the opportunity he had created, a smile appeared on his face.
However, Sun Fei did not show himself; instead, he turned and left.
For over an hour, Sun Fei had had a strange feeling, as if someone was secretly following him and watching his every move, but no matter what he tried, he couldn't find any trace of the person following him.
