At the end of the mural, the twin emperors designed a unique ritual to help the ethnic group bear the curse.

Orianna speculated that he should have received some booty in the process of sealing lukaccia, such as knowledge, books, sacred objects, mysteries, etc. this ritual should be designed in combination with these.

Later, in order to hold the ritual, he made a series of measures that seemed particularly absurd to outsiders.

First, I don't know what means I used to forcibly raise the plain forest area where the elves originated into today's elves garden.

With his strength at that time, he should not have been able to do such a thing. He mostly borrowed the booty from lucacia.

This aroused the strong opposition of the elves, but it was forcibly suppressed by the twin emperors by bloody and cruel means, forcing countless residents to leave their homes and be displaced.

Then he began a series of levies, forced a large number of civilian men and craftsmen, and began to build this huge temple.

For the Elven Empire, which had gradually declined at that time, it was just like making it worse.

The whole ritual process took nearly 100 years, and almost squandered all the money left before the elf empire.

During this period, several rebellions broke out in China, and the twin emperors were assassinated dozens of times.

Countless bards composed poems of his atrocities and sang them everywhere. From children to the elderly, they all thought he was a madman, mentally ill and a tyrant who wanted to lead the country to perish together.

But all these were forcibly suppressed by him with a strong force.

"They hate us, even if we want to save them..."

"This is also the suffering we should bear."

"They will eventually abandon us..."

"This is also our responsibility."

In the last mural, the twin emperors walked into the temple alone, closed the door tightly, leaving only a trace of their back.

So far, the story came to an abrupt end, and no one knows what happened later.

But they should have succeeded.

Because the elves still exist.

Even though they have declined to the point where they can't gain a foothold on the mainland and have been driven to isolated overseas islands, they are still alive.

No one knows about the yarakas in the same period

The twin emperors who saved the ethnic group are missing, and few people know his sacrifice. His history and records are strictly controlled. His final impression in the elves is fixed on the image of a "crazy tyrant".

Today, young elves like evya still have great prejudice against him and are afraid of him.

He saved the group, but was abandoned by the group.

"It's really not easy for a civilization to survive..."

Rohr sighed in a low voice.

"I wronged him. It turned out that he was such a great emperor..."

With emotion, evya knelt in front of the last figure, clenched her fingers and whispered in ELF language.

Probably something like a memorial?

As for Orianna, after sorting out the historical knowledge in her mind, she helped to supplement the following plot:

"According to some of our previous discoveries, the elves really began to decline from the time when the twin emperors were in power. At first, we thought it was caused by the emperor's poor governance. Now it seems that there is another secret."

"Moreover, although the Elves were weakened after that, they did not have the opportunity. At least in the subsequent process of competing with humans for the mainland, they still showed great strength."

"This shows that the curse was really borne by the twin emperors. After a thousand years of recuperation, the elves became strong again and showed signs of revival."

"Unfortunately, they still maintain the same arrogance, make serious mistakes in judging the situation, and the extraordinary system is not perfect, it is too old, and underestimates the power of mankind, which leads to the end of living on a desert island."

Rolle and Corey listened carefully, nodding their heads all the time.

Finally, Ariana did not forget to tell her:

"Cori, when you go back, you must sort out the story of the twin emperors. This kind of hero who made great sacrifices for the ethnic group, even the former enemy, deserves our praise."

Kerry held her picture book tightly with both hands and nodded hard.

"Well, let's go to the last floor. There should be more stories recorded there?"

Rolle said again.

So they went up to the top of the temple and planned to see the final outcome of the twin emperors.

But the stairway was blocked by a huge stone gate.

The door is carved with the pattern of a ferocious monster with wings on its back, which is very similar to the pattern on the temple gate restored by evya.

This shows that evya's restoration is still in place.

"So what the hell is this? It's carved on two key doors."

Rolle asked.

"Maybe this is what the god they believe in, lucacia?"

Kerry boldly speculated.

To be honest, this conjecture is not very reliable. There is a big gap between the huge lucacia pattern of the underground relics in the fertile valley and the one on the door, except that they all have wings and are very ferocious.

However, the historical records after artistic processing are like this. The images of the same character at the same time often show various differences because of the recorder's understanding, which is also a very common phenomenon.

The two images, originally carved by two civilizations, are quite different and normal.

So Orianna didn't refute, but touched Kerry's helmet and said as her mother praised her daughter:

"You're right. I also have such a guess. What we do in historical research is to make bold assumptions and carefully verify!"

"Ke Li also has such thinking. It seems that this activity has made great progress!"

Rolle couldn't help laughing. He benefited a lot from his trip. He not only solved the historical mystery, but also witnessed his daughter's growth. He was very happy.

However, the last door was not easy to open. Whether it was pushed or pulled or separated to the left and right, the door remained motionless, as if it had been completely sealed.

"Then... Only..."

He said, took out his sword and planned to open the door in a simple and rough way.

As a result, Orianna and Cori pulled his arm from left to right, and even evya hugged his waist from behind.

"That won't work!"

"Dad, no!"

"Please don't destroy the ruins of the great ancestors!"

emmmmm

Rolle had to take back his sword in embarrassment, and then take off the women wrapped around him one by one.

In other words, even if the daughter, how can the other two adult women not consciously give up? Are you not afraid of being taken advantage of by me?

"There's a way to open this door. There are words engraved next to it."

For fear that rolle would be rude again, evya quickly picked up the magic guide light stick and lit up the walls around the stone gate.

At the top of the door is engraved with large characters written in elvish language: 'tomb of the abandoned'

It seems that the twin emperors have known their end and end, and have given themselves the title of 'deserter'.

Then, on the surrounding walls, some warning warnings are engraved:

"Don't disturb your Majesty's rest!"

"Don't approach, don't ask, don't explore!"

"Go back! Go back! Stay away from here! Forget all this!"

It sounds scary, as if there are some terrible monsters in it.

But no matter how powerful the monster is, it has been locked up for a thousand years without eating or drinking. It's not much worse.

At least Orianna explored it carefully with her senses. There was nothing in it.

And even if it is possible, you have to go in. Rolle and others climbed here to eliminate all hidden dangers and ensure the smooth progress of archaeological activities.

If you don't go in and have a look, suddenly a twin emperor comes out. It's really scary.

"But how do you open the door? Don't you have any way?"

Rolle watched the three girls touch and push in front of the door. The door was motionless and worried.

"Why don't you just let me come?"

Then he took out his sword again.

As a result, the three girls turned back and stared at him.

Rolle had to take the sword back in embarrassment.

"Wait, there seems to be something here!"

After examining the gate carefully with perception, Orianna found that there was a mystery hidden in the pattern of the monster.

"The lines that make up the wings are strange, like some words and symbols... I'll record it first and you can help translate it."

With that, she grabbed the picture book in Ke Li's arms, wrote and drew on it for a while, and ordered evya to be on standby for translation.

It looks like a bully at home.

Cori and evya dare not say anything

A moment later, Orianna copied down all the hidden words on her wings and handed the picture book to evya.

"Er... It's said that it's very dangerous inside, but if it's a descendant who really wants to know, you can open this door by means of the yarakas..."

"However, what is in it is a history that should be forgotten. Only by paying the price of bleeding can we explore the truth in the fog."

Evya translated and couldn't help but tilt her head and didn't quite understand this riddle.

Ariana was also confused.

"What is the way of the arakaans? Where can I find the living arakaans now?"

The little face under Chloe's visor also showed a look of embarrassment.

Although I dug a site of the yarakas in the fertile valley before and got some small harvest, the situation was chaotic with the strong entry of strawberry ice cream, and nothing was brought out

Eh? Wait, there seems to be something coming out!

She quickly lowered her head and turned over her bear bag. Finally, she found a rusty and broken dagger, or sacrificial knife, in it.

This is what she robbed when she confronted the barbarians in the ruins. At that time, she pulled out the sacrificial knife and strawberry ice cream came out suddenly.

She put it in the bear's satchel, and then because of all kinds of chaos, she forgot it all the time.

Professor Kant, who presided over the archaeology, was distracted by the following series of events and couldn't remember this little detail at all.

It is mainly because the sacrificial knife itself has no power. It is not an ancient mystery that people care about, but a cultural relic with pure academic value.

As a result, this precious and important cultural relic was in Kerry's bear satchel, mixed with all kinds of passbooks, certificates of deposit, money bags, clothes, skirts, socks, snacks, desserts, small toys and so on. It has not been remembered until now.

But as soon as she took it out, when she approached the gate, the sacrificial knife, which was almost like scrap iron, lit up slightly.

The stone door, which had been indifferent before, also began to tremble and shake slightly.

However, it still hasn't been opened.

"Is this a cultural relic left by the yarakas?"

Olliana widened her eyes and did not ask why her daughter had such a thing in her hand, but continued:

"But that's not enough. Although it establishes a mysterious resonance with the door, it's not enough to open the door."

"What else are we missing..."

"Yes! It's blood! The door said, 'only by paying the price of bleeding can we explore the truth in the fog'!"

After that, she asked for a sacrificial knife from Kerry and planned to cut her finger.

But she was wearing a deformed armor, and it was obvious that she could not be cut with this broken thing alone.

The deformed armor is taken off as a whole. There is no way to take off part of it alone. Moreover, I don't know what's behind the door. If I take off my armor rashly, I won't have time to put it on later.

At the same time, rolle, Corey and Orianna were all fully armed and wearing deformed armor.

Only evya

"Hum, I can only ask you to sacrifice a little..."

Ariana picked up the sacrificial knife and slowly approached evya.

"Don't worry, I'll be very gentle!"

"No! Why me!"

Evya hurriedly hid behind rolle and trembled.

At the sight of her appearance, Orianna suddenly felt a little unhappy.

Originally, I just planned to cut her finger gently, and then immediately disinfect and stop bleeding with a secret technique.

As a result, I kind of want to stab her on the wrist, and then don't ask.

The wound made by such a rusted knife must be terrible, isn't it?

As a result, Rolle stopped Orianna's evil thoughts in time.

"Forget it, I'll do it."

With that, he took the sacrificial knife from Orianna.

Eve Arden breathed a sigh of relief.

Your excellency Luo Er is really a reliable good man. He doesn't forget to protect me at this time and plans to open the door with his own blood.

What a good man to trust and rely on!

Olliana also thought that rolle was going to give herself a knife. She hesitated and felt distressed. She quickly said:

"Be careful. Just cut your fingers. I'll help disinfect them!"

Rolle nodded.

Then he turned back and grabbed evya's hand, quickly scratched and pulled it on her thumb.

-----------

Well, I wish you all a happy Christmas Eve.

I don't like this kind of foreign festival, but I still wish you all a happy holiday.

As for those who go out for the festival tonight, there is no blessing.

The list is still too short to pull until tomorrow.

Pulling the list on Christmas day will have a different sense of ceremony.

As if summoning saints.
