Chapter 1,742 Artifact Set? Super Artifact? !
*************************************************** *************************************************** ****
"This, this is it, let's give it a try." I blurted out after staring at this piece of information for a long time.
"Where is it?" The curious little girl Beiya came up and looked at the paper in my hand.
"Legend...under the distant cemetery...the truth about the Horadric Cube is buried...three worlds...back then...so it was sealed here...as long as you find the key key...I say you idiot , Don’t block it with your hands!”
Beya, who was chanting intermittently, suddenly jumped up and hit me hard on the head.
Originally, I would not be easily attacked by such a simple attack, but my attention was completely attracted by this content, and I was unable to dodge, and actually got hit.
"You little girl, be careful, I will throw you into the Horadric Tomb and lock you up." I touched my head in pain and made a sinister gesture towards Beja.
"I...His Highness would be afraid of that kind of place, haha, it's really ridiculous. Come if you can." Beiya, who clearly showed fear of the ancient tomb environment, said forcefully.
Just when the two of us started to stare at each other covetously again, Tia also came up, took a look, and immediately said happily.
"Does Fanfan think this is more likely? I also think this is more likely, and I'm just thinking about how to explain it to you. Is this considered a tacit understanding?"
"You think so, right? That's good, it's you." I nodded at little girl Beiya's forehead and pushed her away. I made the final decision.
"Wait, don't ignore my opinion!" The stupid princess yelled unwillingly after being left aside.
"Two to one, no matter whether you agree or not, you can't stop it. So there is no need at all."
"At least tell me the reason for choosing this. It's rare that Your Highness works so hard to help you. Is this how you treat your benefactor?"
Seeing Beiya's aggrieved look, I thought about it and thought it was true. After all, she helped a little bit, not to mention how much, just because of this intention. You can't bully her in a place like this.
"Okay, let me tell you my opinion first." After coughing several times, I glanced at the two girls, and finally my eyes fell on Tia.
"Tia, remember the first time I came to the Horadric clan, when I opened the teleportation array. After that, didn't we go to the Horadric Tomb together?"
"Well, remember, I remember it clearly. After all, it was the journey of love between me and Fanfan." Tia recalled, with a look of tenderness on her pretty face.
That experience trip was the beginning of Tia's theory of "I will exchange my body with you, and you can ask for it whenever you want." Although at that time. Tia's thoughts were extremely simple. It was true that she didn't make this agreement intentionally because she liked the other person, but because she really didn't understand the relationship between men and women.
But later, after she fell in love with him, this agreement became a strategic tool that she could use to attack and retreat.
Anyway, from Diya's point of view, that time together was the starting point of her love journey. There is no girl with a beautiful love. To be able to forget such important things.
"It's... too exaggerated." When I heard that Tia actually described that experience as a love journey, I scratched my head in embarrassment and laughed.
Beiya looked at him suspiciously. He looked at Tia and me from left to right, with an angry expression on his face, "You two shameless men and women, you really have some adultery that you are hiding from His Highness, right?"
"Ahem, speaking of which, do you still remember what happened after you encountered Duriel at the innermost part of the ancient tomb?"
"Well, although I fainted at that time, didn't Fanfan mention it to me later? What happened after I fainted." Tia nodded sheepishly.
After all, the experience was so humiliating.
He was actually frightened and fainted by the ferocious aura of Fanfan's blood bear transformation and the cruel method of killing Du Ruier. After waking up, he tried his best to hypnotize himself. It was just an illusion, so he dared to approach Fanfan.
It was not until later that Tia went out to the outside world and had several real experiences as an adventurer. After seeing the cruelty of this world, when she looked back and thought about it, she felt that she was just a hothouse flower at that time.
If there was a chance, she would really like to see Fanfan in his blood bear form again and say sorry to him in person. Her reaction must have made Fanfan very sad.
I didn't expect that Tia still had such thoughts in her heart. The appearance and momentum of the blood bear back then were indeed a little more impressive. Thinking about it carefully, could it be that the current posture of the hell fighting bear is the unconscious feeling in her heart? Has this changed? Maybe, but I really don’t mean to be cute for malicious purposes. Please trust my integrity. You see, I have already accumulated the weight of two expired contraceptive bottles.
"So, after defeating Duriel, follow the passage where it appeared and enter the innermost part. You will find an underground lava sea with a stone pillar platform and altar on it. You still remember it," I said excitedly.
This pit... Ahem, no, this matter and more than eight years have passed. If I hadn't seen the record on paper this time and had a flash of inspiration, I would have forgotten about it.
"What Fanfan means is that the truth buried under the distant ancient tomb mentioned in this piece of information refers to that place?" Tia finally understood what I meant.
"Yes, that's right." I kept nodding.
"But... the Horadric Tomb is more than just this secret. How can Fanfan be so sure that it is there?"
"A man's sixth sense." I gave a thumbs up and flashed my teeth.
"The sixth sense... Well, if it's not the seventh sense, I can believe it..." Tia lowered her head, seeming to mutter something very rude to me.
"What about you, Tia, what is the reason for your choice?" I looked at Tia curiously. She would never give such a vague answer like "This is also a girl's sixth sense" like me. I was very worried. Wondering what her reasons were.
"A girl's sixth sense... is impossible, hehehe~~~" The little girl stuck out her tongue and smiled at us, before lightly knocking on her forehead.
For the sake of cuteness. I'll let her go this time.
"Actually, I chose this place because of the record of this piece of information." Putting aside her joking expression, Tia placed the paper on the desk so that the three of them could see the content inside, then pointed at a piece of information and said seriously .
"You see, this is what this information records. First of all, it denies the conclusion that the Horadric Cube is an unfinished product. Indeed, when the cube was made, our Horadric tribe was already in a dilemma of lack of materials. , is not far from decline. But after all, the cube was created by the most powerful and knowledgeable elder mages in the clan at that time, in the name of the clan's treasure. No matter how scarce the materials were, He would be given priority. The Making of the Ruddik Cube.”
"That's right." I nodded in agreement.
The lack of materials was simply because there were too many mages of the Horadric clan at that time, and the consumption was too great. If all these materials were collected, it would be a shocking number. As a treasure of the clan, the Horadric Cube should be able to enjoy the centralized supply of resources.
"Besides, there is another doubtful point. Take a look." Continuing, the little girl Tia acted mysteriously and pointed to another piece of information.
"The author of this information has a very detailed understanding of the history of the production of the Horadric Cube. It even lists the names and information of all the makers of the Horadric Cube. And these are the key doubts. .”
Pointing to the names and information one by one, Tia's expression became serious and solemn again.
"What's the suspicion?" I looked at it carefully several times. Apart from a simple description of which mage is good and what powerful achievements he has had, there is no other content in the information. To put it bluntly, it is just a list of producers. Would there be any doubts about such a thing?
"Fanfan, what do you think is the essence of the Horadric Cube?" Dia suddenly looked at me and asked.
"Essence? Please, don't ask such a profound question all at once, uh... let me think about it. In my opinion, the biggest function of the current Horadric Cube is to combine some things into other things, so as to clear up any doubts. The Horadric Cube is actually composed of countless alchemical formulas. It replaces the test bench and the complicated steps, simplifying alchemy to the extreme. As long as the raw materials are put in, the corresponding alchemical items can be synthesized, which is probably How about this."
I racked my brains to hold back this sentence, and then looked at Tia expectantly.
"Fanfan is right. In the eyes of ordinary people, the Horadric Cube is actually a precious treasure that records ancient alchemical formulas. Its most precious thing is the many lost alchemical formulas in it." Tia smiled. He nodded, and then a big turn came.
"However, if the Horadric Cube is really just an alchemy secret treasure, then the above production list should not be quite right."
With full momentum, pointing to the next piece of information, Tia said with absolute certainty.
At this moment, Dia's body shone with the dazzling light of a rigorous, erudite, and wise Horadric mage, which made Beja and I stunned.
It is no longer clear whether the girl standing in front of us is the lively, bright and energetic girl, or the wise, knowledgeable, calm and rigorous young mage.
"I'm not asking you to look at me, I'm just looking at the information." When he came back to his senses, he saw Diya's pretty face was slightly red, and she was looking at the two of us awkwardly.
He was probably shy because of our surprised stares.
This is like the Tia from before. This Tia is better. The Tia just now seemed to be in a different world, which was difficult to approach.
That was a strange world that only people with high IQs could go to, for Beja and me.
Looking at each other and smiling, we both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Long live the fool!
"I don't want you two to look at each other. Really, hurry up and read the information!" Seeing our eyes leave her and looking at each other again, Tia didn't know if she was jealous, so she angrily pressed hard on the information. A little bit.
"Yes, yes, great teacher Tia, I will follow your teachings." I didn't dare to be careless and responded quickly, my eyes falling on that piece of information, and at the same time, Tia's clear and moving voice. It is also like a sweet spring, slowly flowing into the ears.
"The author of the information found a very suspicious thing on the list, that is, among the makers of the Horadric Cube, there are only a handful of mages who are proficient in alchemy. Of course, he did not doubt these famous people. An alchemist mage. He is not capable enough to create countless alchemical formulas for the Horadric Cube, but he suspects that most of the other non-alchemist mages are involved. What is the reason for the Horadric Cube to be really just an alchemical secret treasure? ?"
"Is that so? It seems to be true." After hearing Tia's explanation, she turned back to look at the list. Beja and I also started to feel suspicious.
Indeed, if the Horadric Cube was truly an alchemical secret treasure, there would be no need for so many non-alchemy mages to be involved. Even a magic idiot like me would be able to realize this.
"Just because this piece of information provides strong refuting evidence, do you think it has the highest credibility?" Seeing Tia stop, I couldn't help but ask.
Indeed, this piece of information provides a very sufficient reason for denial, but it also strictly denies the original possibility. It does not necessarily mean that what is discovered based on this foundation must be correct.
"That's part of the reason." Tia nodded her chin noncommittally and said.
"The final reason is this. The last point expressed above is that the Horadric Cube is not an unfinished product, but... one... one of the components of a completed product."
"What?" Beya and I were completely stunned by this statement.
As long as you are not a fool. Everyone can understand what this sentence represents. A meaning that is enough to shock the world.
The Horadric Cube is already an artifact, as an artifact. It's just a component?
Doesn't that mean that the Horadric Cube probably represents an artifact set, or a... super artifact?
"Wait... wait, Tia, don't you think this conclusion is too incredible?" After staying for a long time, I shook my head desperately, not believing it. After all, the meaning expressed in it was really shocking.
"Is it an artifact suit, or a super artifact?" Dia smiled sweetly and nodded lightly.
