Law of the Devil

Chapter 15 [Study Treasure II - The Greatest Female Astrologer]

Dewey picked up a candlestick. Thinking about it, he removed another suspended weapon from the wall, and of course, given his current weak strength, he chose a short sword. After a slight indulgence, Dewey picked up some new candles and put them in her arms.

Dewey then walked into the secret room on this wall.

A weak candle fire can only illuminate a space about two or three steps back and forth. Fortunately, Dewey is naturally stronger than the average person and has a lot of strong sensitivity to the surroundings.

This is a secret passage embedded in a huge stone wall, cold and hard on both sides, and I don't know how many generations have passed. The secret passage is full of dust, and even though Dewey has tried to lighten up every move, he has inevitably provoked dust and even sneezed.

From time to time, he stepped on a few tiny stones, and the candle flames swayed, and Dewey could only move forward so carefully.

Fortunately, the place appears to be ventilated, and the candle fire, though shaken, is not extinguished due to lack of oxygen in the air.

After a short walk, a staircase appeared in front of it, and the staircase circled all the way down to the ground, the staircase was narrow and also made of stone. It looked a little rough, but it was good that it was still strong enough, just down the road. According to Dewey's estimation, after about 30 floors of staircase, he finally saw a small door.

The metal handle said it was already rusty, and Dewey grabbed the handle and twisted it twice, but found the door locked and the door couldn't open at all. He sighed and suddenly remembered the rebuttal phrase on the bookshelf...

“The spoon is the key...”

Dewey thought about it, lifting a candle and shooting around the front of the door, and finally saw a pattern on the ceiling above the door.

This is a carved pattern, and according to the pattern above, Dewey could barely recognize that it seemed like a star map, and he didn't really study the stars, but because he remembered the “spoon" problem in his brain, he clearly found the "Beidou Seven Stars” shaped like a spoon on the star map.

“The spoon is the key…” Dewey muttered, the ceiling was a little tall for a 13-year-old, who couldn't reach the ceiling even if he stood up. Through a dark candle fire, Dewey carefully studied this pattern.

One candle almost burned out. When Dewey lit the second candle, his heart suddenly moved and he remembered an important question!

Keys?

Joke!

If this secret passage is discovered, then if the person who came in doesn't have a key, won't you find the tools to pry the door open? Without the keys, the door could be broken open by crude means.

In that case, the key is less important. But the tip says “key” so special, then there must be a different meaning!

In other words, if you don't have a key, and you want to smash it or pry it or something else, it doesn't work.

This “key”, I'm afraid, cannot be interpreted literally.

Dewey sat down and thought for a moment, and when he stood up again, he tried his best to jump up, lifting the dagger in his hand and barely knocking it on the seven-star Beidou pattern on the ceiling.

Bang

Dewey's eyes shine! The sound seems to be empty.

Instead of attempting to draw attention to the door, he bent down, searched for a gap on the slab on the ground, and then stuck the sword in the gap so that it stood on the ground, and then Dewey held the wall reluctantly and stepped on the sword, so that he stood a little taller, although there was still some shaking, he could barely reach for the ceiling.

There was a thick layer of dust on the ceiling, and Dewey scoured around for a while and felt the star pattern on the seven stars of the Battle of the Seven stars clearly have a different sense of irregularity than anywhere else, and he tried some methods, knocking, twisting, turning, etc.

Finally, he didn't know where he had touched it. He spun it hard and twisted the stone of a star. As he clicked, a floor at the corner of the wall suddenly fell down!

A black passage appears on the ground with steps all the way down!

Got it!

Dewey whispered and jumped off the dagger grip with a smile.

It's a trick! Dewey was convinced that his guess was correct.

This rusty door next to you is an eye-catching trick! The real secret isn't even on this door! If the people who came here didn't follow the prompts and pay attention to the "Seven Stars of the Battle", even if they opened that door with brute force, they wouldn't find the real secret!

Dewey is convinced that the real secret of this place lies in this black passage falling into the ground!

He walked up to the aisle, and the entrance was very narrow, just to allow one person to barely enter, dark inside, and Dewey lit a candle first and threw it in, and through the candlelight it fell, he could see that the steps below were not deep, which was about two or three meters high, and should be a secret room.

Instead of going down immediately, Dewey sat at this portal and waited for a while. There was nothing unusual under her eyes, which led her carefully down the steps.

•

This is a closed room with closed stone walls on all sides, a row of iron cabinets on both sides of the walls, many sealed and all the locks on them rusted. And in the middle is a big stone table.

This stone table is about the same height as Dewey's waist, with lots of deep, hard to read patterns engraved on the countertops, a large arc in the center, all decorated with star positions.

After watching for a while, Dewey felt clueless and then simply abandoned her research on the pattern on the table and focused her search on the iron cabinet next to her.

The iron cabinets here are all locked, because I'm afraid the locks are rusted long ago. Dewey worked hard for half a day, and just when he was feeling a little depressed, he finally cheered and found a drawer that wasn't locked!

It's also the only unlocked drawer on the entire iron cabinet!

After opening, a stone box lies quietly in the drawer.

This stone blind man has a Rollin family badge engraved on his face!

Dewey painstakingly lifted the box and sat on the floor, carefully flipping it open. In the box, it's a roll of parchment.

The parchment paper was dense and numb, and after expanding the parchment paper, a hexagonal prism-shaped green crystal fell from the paper roll as if it were a gem.

Dewey patiently lit her third candle and read the parchment in silence...

“To the Messenger:

Dear reader, I'm sure you must be a descendant of the Rollin family. So the first thing you need to know is that this is a letter from your ancestors, and I'm the wife of the seventh generation of the Rollin family chief, astrologer Sameer. ”

Seeing the opening two sentences, Dewey couldn't help but be surprised.

Astrologist, Sameer?

Of course, Dewey knows that in the history of the Rollins, there was a strange family chief who was interested in astrology and even married a female astrologer. And Dewey is now in this family castle, the tallest building of the castle, a tall white tower, built by the family chief in that time, so that his astrologer wife can stay in the tall tower at night to better observe the stars in the night sky!

What Dewey didn't expect was that this letter came from the matriarch's wife, the astrologer's handwriting!

He continues to read down.

“… when you read this letter, I hope you understand that what you will face next will be an adventure of great risk. Perhaps you will open a door that has been banned for countless times, because it is likely that behind this door there will be a taboo area untouchable by humankind.

At the same time, this is what I, at the Institute for Life, discovered.

If you are ready for adventure, then you can take the jewel wrapped together in this letter, and then you scrutinize the stone table in the room, and you will find a socket where you can insert the jewel and you will get the most complete information I have left. And in order to ensure that the information is not passed on to outsiders, the initiation message must have the blood of the Rollins, please drop your blood on the gem, and the Rollins' blood will guide you to the information I left behind. ”

At the end of this letter, there is a line of text:

“May the great Rollin family flourish, because my husband, I am in love with this family!

Your ancestor, Sameer Chira Rollin, left a message. "

Dewey couldn't help but feel a little more shocked after reading it!

Because based on the family history that he has seen, he has spoken to Sameer Chira Rollin (his real name is Sameer Chira. It was only after marrying the Rollins that the Rollins were given their last name) that I was very impressed.

This woman is the wife of the seventh generation of the matriarch of the family, a famous female astrology master, and she deserves admiration in the field of astrology! Dewey's Enlightenment teacher, an old Rosiat scholar, was also an astrologer, and he was honored when he occasionally mentioned Dewey's ancestral wife in the year and a half he had taught Dewey. He even accidentally mentioned that this woman astrologer named Samel almost seems to be one of the finest astrologers in the empire for nearly 200 years!

And what impressed Dewey about that name was not because Sameer was a great astrology master, but for another reason.

Because, in the Rollin family records that Dewey had read, the woman was a master astrologer and a woman who loved her husband deeply.

The seventh generation elder of the Rollins, who married her, had a short life span and died at about fifty years of age. This Sameer woman astrologer, apparently an insane woman, died of suicide martyrdom on the third day after her husband's death on the tall white tower she had built for her before her life.

And before she died, the master astrologer carved a sentence on her tower:

“Because of love, we will live forever. ”

It was because of the last words that Dewey remembered the famous woman in the family's history.

Without a moment of hesitation, Dewey immediately lay down and grabbed up under the stone table, quickly finding the socket indicated in the letter.

The socket is exactly the same size as the stone. Dewey immediately cut off his finger without hesitation and dropped a drop of blood on the stone.

As the stone plugged into that socket. Dewey subconsciously took two steps back...

In the dark secret room, all of a sudden, the pattern on the stone table in front of this quadrangle bursts with a strong light that makes the whole room look like daylight! That strong light couldn't even stab Dewey open his eyes!

Then these lights came together little by little, and eventually a light column formed on the stone table, and in the middle of the light column, a human figure appeared!

It's not a real person, it's a very, very human phantom that these lights put together!

This phantom is the same size as a real person, and Dewey couldn't help but open her eyes!

He suddenly reacted to something very important!

This Sameer, the legendary woman astrologer, I'm afraid is also a brilliant magician! Because what just happened, and this phantom in front of you, is clearly a magic!!

The light of the phantom gradually diminishes, and at the end of the day the light is just as strong and weak as the naked eye can bear.

Dewey can finally see the man standing in the light column.

A woman wearing a red robe with long silver hair like white snow, her whole body covered in a bright red robe, a face so beautiful, her eyes seemed soft, just those black eyes, made Dewey feel a little strange.

“O you who opened the message, I am your ancestor, Sameer Chira Rollin.” This phantom slowly opens: “This is the last magical message I left before I died. The magic array I left behind needed the magic crystal that instilled my own magic, plus the blood of the Rollins, to open it. Since you can see this message, which means that you are the heir of the Rollins, you can also get the secrets of everything I have no reservations about. ”

Dewey looked at this beautiful woman in front of him, and he had to be a little shocked inside!

It can hold a message for hundreds of years with a magic array! Such a magical skill is already a superior magician!! This Sameer has such skills!

“I don't know how many years have passed since you started this message, or how much magic I have left in the crystal, so please listen to every word I say clearly, because I'm afraid there's no magic left to start this array again. ”

Sameer's phantom spoke slowly.

Though knowing that the saimel in front of him was not real, it was just a phantom, Dewey couldn't help nodding.

“The first thing I want to say is that what I leave you may bring you endless benefits, or may cause you endless trouble. Because no one but my husband knew the results of my life's research. The person who opened this information, since you can come here, must have some knowledge of astrology, at least astrology. So first of all, one of the most important things I want to tell you is that all astrologers in the world are wrong! They, all of them, everyone, are wrong!

Because astrology is definitely not just a shallow thing that predicts the future through changes in the stars. Though astrology is now perceived by all as a prophecy. But what I'm going to tell you is that astrology is actually a magic, a powerful and profound magic.

Astrologers should not just be considered astrological scholars, nor should they just be shallow, false prophets.

A true astrologer should have the power to compete with all magicians!

Since magicians can summon the power of the wind, with rain, storms, flames, and so on, all the power of nature. So, astrologer, why can't we use the power of the stars?

Even we astrologers can go further! Because I discovered a power that the magicians could never, if ever, master… that is… the law! ”
