414 Diary (1/2)
The Puppet Plane was undoubtedly a holy land for alchemists specialized in puppets, it had countless puppets. After conquering the Puppet Plane, those few major forces sent a large amount of alchemists into the Puppet Plane, and after a few decades, those few major forces had the most powerful puppet legions in Noscent.
Lin Yun was a bit stunned. How could a Planar Path leading to the Puppet Plane appear in the workshop of the magic tower? Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help beating faster, 'Could it be… Luo Ning already discovered the Puppet Plane a thousand years ago?'
'And the Planar Path in this workshop was most likely established by Luo Ning.'
'This is quite outrageous…'
While rushing to the passage, Lin Yun took the time to record the coordinates of the Puppet Plane in his Book of Death so that he would be able to easily take a trip there later.
”What… What's that?”
Delson and the others were taking a breather at the entrance to the passage. They had clearly sprinted, but they found it difficult to rush through the passage without confirming what happened, thus, after making sure they were safe, they looked back.
They were instantly petrified, they only saw a sea of densely packed puppets, too many to be able to count. The thousand puppets they had seen when they first arrived was nothing compared to this sea of puppets.
The puppets were tightly packed in the workshop, it could be inferred from this that they might be a few ten thousands of them….
What kind of concept was that?
A puppet legion made up of a few tens thousands puppets was enough to sweep through Okland's major forces.
Weiss and Solan had been thrown to the ground by Lin Yun. Although their Flames Shackles had long since been dealt with, the two had no intention of making a move, they were instead sluggishly looking at that sea of puppets as they recalled their previous situation. If the young mage hadn't taken them away, they would have already lost their lives.
Weiss' expression seemed a lot more complicated as he looked at Lin Yun. He wanted to say something, but held back.
Everyone could understand that remaining on the 10th floor wasn't a good idea, those puppets wouldn't take long to wipe out this place.
The group got down the spiralling staircase and went through a dark passage before new surroundings appeared in front of them.
The 9th floor was very small, not at all like the previous floors who were using expansion arrays. It was only a few hundred meters wide and had a few sparse bookshelves and a desk on which was set up a quill, paper, and a few other things.
Lin Yun could determine with a glance that this should have been the Gaugass King's study. Moreover, there was no danger here. He told the others to rest as they would go to the next layer in a few hours.
Everyone's mind was strained on their way here, hearing Lin Yun's words, they all relaxed and scattered to various corners of the study. Some meditated, some started flipping books on the bookshelves, and Xiuban directly picked a corner, shot a glance at Lin Yun, and after discovering that he wasn't paying attention to him, shut his eyes and started sleeping.
At this time, Lin Yun's eyes were focused on the desk. To be more exact, they were focused on the piece of paper on the desk. That piece of paper emitted a faint mana fluctuation, moreover, he was startled when he recognized the characters used. That piece of paper was filled with Divine Characters.
The source of all knowledge came from the Divine Characters of the Ascian Dynasty.
He had studied a few books pertaining to the Ascian Dynasty in the decaying library, but they didn't have much depths, and he could only barely manage to translate a few important characters, such as Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Lightning and Thunder, Darkness, Light, and so on.
But, not long ago in the illusion, he once again entered the spacious decaying library and spent some time to study the characters of the Ancient Gods.
Lin Yun couldn't help frowning, had he not had another opportunity to explore the decaying library, he wouldn't have been able to understand anything...
Even so, translating so many Divine Characters would take a lot of effort, and there would still be a portion he wouldn't be able to understand.
Lin Yun spent three hours translating, continuously studying the Ancient Gods' characters. It was extremely painful, but his frown gradually eased up. In these three hours he translated a large part of the Ancient Gods' characters and had profited quite a bit.
That piece of paper was left by Luo Ning, the Gaugass King, and those Divine Characters were also written by Luo Ning. It was like a diary in some way, but not quite like it. It seemed to be something Luo Ning wanted to share with those who would discover this place.
The start of the diary faintly mentioned the Throne of Life...
It also mentioned how Luo Ning cooperated with Emperor Zhantui and used the 3rd Dynasty's power to build two palaces at the bottom of the Line Canyon. As for the magic tower they were in, it was in fact a war fortress, especially the 10th floor. The huge puppet workshop was supporting Luo Ning and Zhantui with a huge puppet legion.
They spent a lot of energy on this because they were preparing to enter another place.
After reading up to there, Lin Yun became somewhat doubtful. Luo Ning and Emperor Zhantui had both surpassed Heaven Rank, what place would require them to make so much preparations.
But on the eve of their departure, Emperor Zhantui and Luo Ning had a disagreement for some unknown reason and Emperor Zhantui went back while Luo Ning seemed to have gone to that place. At the end of the page was a paragraph Lin Yun more or less understood, the place was full of danger and the enemy was extremely powerful.
