The Age of Machines

Chapter 849 Seal
"Sigh~"

It spat out the letter, its body wriggled and gradually lifted its upper body.The huge body, only one-third up, completely enveloped Beixi and Rashomon.

A golden python with a stone between its foreheads.

Bei Xi remembered where he had seen this thing before.It was the python guarding the lake in the lake area.But in terms of size, the one in front of me is better, that is, it is not the snake in the lake area at all, maybe it is the boss of the boa constrictor.

It spat out the letter, but it swayed its posture but did not attack the two of them for a long time.Alena stepped forward, touched the giant snake with one hand, and comforted softly: "Golden scorpion, don't be afraid that they won't hurt Lord Meredith."

The giant snake made a "hissing" sound.

Beixi and Rashomon couldn't understand it, but they probably knew that the snake was talking, uttering snake language, and humans naturally couldn't understand it either.Aleena herself was originally created by Meredith, and inherited many things from Meredith, so it is not surprising that she can understand it.

Alena said again: "Go and watch."

The giant python nodded slightly, and moved its huge body to a corner of the room. With its body crossed, a pair of golden pupils stared straight at Beixi and the others, as if they were nailed to them, and could no longer be removed.

Alena whispered to Beixi, the magic light flashed, Beixi only felt that the restraints on his hands disappeared in an instant, moved his wrist, and his body parts would become stiff and not flexible enough after being tied for a long time in the game.

Aliena only unlocked the magic chain for Beixi.

Rashomon didn't care too much, so there was no need to be in a hurry.Too much haste will only be counterproductive.

"Where are the books?" Beixi asked proactively.

Aliena spread her hands, turned the magic circle in her hand, and a heavy book fell into her hands. "Tell me, how do you open it?"

Aliena handed out the wafer that Beixi had given with her other hand.

Beixi reached out to take the chip, and then reached out to [Book of Punishment] with the other hand. Unexpectedly, Alena embraced it vigilantly, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?"

Beixi was speechless.

"If you don't give it to me, how can I open it?"

Aliena said coldly: "You just need to put your strength on the book, I won't let you touch the book."

Beixi doesn't know where her brain circuit is connected to. If she is so on guard, is she still worried that she will run away as soon as she gets the book?
"You don't let me touch it, what's the difference from when you opened this book with an energy source yourself?"

Rashomon also said, "I thought what we said was clear enough." At the end, he couldn't help but sigh.

"This book will only react if you come into contact with a mechanic. You won't let me touch it, even if I throw a piece of energy source, there will be no reaction. You can continue to waste time~" Bei Xi seemed indifferent.

Aliena bit her lip, "If you have other thoughts, I'll kill your companion right away."

Beixi raised his eyebrows calmly, and knew how to use hostages, so he didn't seem too stupid.

"In order to save my companion's life, you can rest assured that I will never have other thoughts. So can you give it to me?"

Aliena gave the book to Beixi after some inner struggle.

Beixi took over.

But nothing happened.

The system didn't respond, neither did the book, and she couldn't feel any power or breath.

[Mechanical Codex] should resonate with mechanics.

Beixi looked at the inconspicuous book. When she first saw it in the lollipop hand, she felt that the book didn't look like a magic weapon at all.Is it impossible to read a book by its appearance...

Tried to open it, couldn't move it at all.

Aleena's eyes sank, and Beixi suddenly raised her head before it could speak. With anger in her tone, she questioned Alena loudly. "What did you do with the book?"

After being yelled at, Alena looked at a loss.

Beixi didn't give her a chance to think too much, and quickly continued: "This is not our mechanical tome at all! The outer shell of the mechanical tome has the badge of our family, and this book is just a worn-out outer skin." Beixi Xi frowned, "Are you testing me? If you don't want to waste time, revive your lord as soon as possible and hand over the real book!"

Aliena's face darkened, "Nonsense! Obviously you can't open it."

Beixi sneered and took the chip in his hand. "You can feel the power contained in this thing yourself, right?"

Alena naturally couldn't forget the impact that thing gave her, and her hands would tremble while holding the chip.If it wasn't for opening the [Book of Punishment], she wouldn't return it to the person in front of her.

"It's impossible for the Mechanical Sacred Book to not respond to this thing." Beixi said in a firm tone, "The only possibility is that you secretly changed the book. This is a fake book."

Aliena: "Impossible!"

This book was given to her by Quinn himself. How Could It Be Wrong?

Beixi held the book and observed it repeatedly, then raised his head and sneered: "This is not the book we got at the beginning."

Alena naturally didn't believe it.

"That book is also covered with old leather, but we can still feel the breath. At that time, we also wondered if it was the mechanical sacred book. After Quinn took it away, there was no chance to confirm it. But I can Definitely, this is not the book we brought out from the old Goulds in the first place."

Bei Xi looked straight at her, Alena couldn't see anything strange in Bei Xi's eyes, it didn't look like a lie, it was just...

Rashomon breathed a sigh of relief.

Alena was already dubious, just now he was worried that there was a loophole in his words and he was afraid of being seen through, but Beixi reacted quickly, and immediately thought of the loophole.

If they thought it was the Mechanical Sacred Book, they should have reacted when they got the book, and it was impossible for Quinn to take it away easily. In the end, they had to realize that it was the Mechanical Sacred Book.

Beixi saw that her expression had loosened.

"After Quinn won the [Book of Punishment], he didn't immediately fight with you, did he?" Beixi asked again.She held the book with a very cold expression on her face. "The purpose of our trip is for the Mechanical Sacred Book, but now the whereabouts of this book are unknown..." Beixi looked at her, "I think you don't need us anymore."

She handed the book back to Alena, "Have you tried it yourself?" Beixi twitched his lips, "We all know your identity. I've made it clear here, and you don't need to hide it. As someone who has For summoned beasts that can also be connected with the holy scriptures, you can also feel the aura emanating from the book."

"Feel it well, what does this book convey to you?" Beixi sneered.

Pushing it into Aliena's arms, as if disgusted, she exerted great force.

Aliena snorted but didn't say anything, but tightly grasped the old thick book, feeling it carefully.

Beixi turned her back, "What a waste of time!"

Rashomon couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the ability to speak out is almost at the full level.

A few seconds later, Alena's face turned ashen.The nails scratched the writing, but she still doubted Bei Xi's intentions. "You want to provoke my relationship with Quinn?"

Beixi: "I only know that what you have is not the [Mechanical Sacred Tome]. As for whether Quinn has tampered with it, how do I know? We chased him all the way after he was unconscious, and during half an hour They were all going around in the palace. As for where he was at that time, you should know better than us, right?"

Aliena bit her lip, her face turned from livid to dark.

It seems to have succeeded.

Beixi glanced at the mummy on the crystal bed. "The body of Meredith won't last long, right? Anyway, it will disappear in a while. If you return the real book to us, how about we give you freedom?"

Aliena: "Freedom?"

Beixi said casually: "The life created by the book can only live within its scope. As long as you cut off the connection with the book, you can of course regain your freedom. And we mechanics are the existence responsible for cutting off the connection. We Respect the wishes of any summoned beast..." Staring at her, showing his kindness. "As long as you want~"

Aliena: "I don't have to do that."

Beixi raised her eyebrows, "Don't you find it strange?"

"what?"

"You were created from that book but you don't have the same power. Your own power is not as good as that of Quinn who has been suppressed by the curse?"

That's why it depends on Quinn's power to obtain that book.

Aliena's breathing froze.

Beixi said lightly: "I told you, mechanics can sense mechanical beasts. You don't need to try to hide anything."

"No matter what you're thinking." Beixi said, and sat on the ground directly, "Anyway, the real book is not here. It's been 5 minutes~"

She was reminding Alena that Quinn hadn't come back for a long time.

Rashomon said at this time: "It should be 8 minutes."

Bei Xi was surprised, "So long?"

Rashomon nodded.

Aliena pursed her lips, "You don't need to act like this."

"Then wait and see." Beixi's smile was mixed with coldness. "Let's see if he comes back."

Beixi supported her head, her elbows fell on her knees.He began to show a leisurely look, "Hey, untie my companion first. Anyway, we can't escape here, these snakes look pretty powerful."

Aliena glanced at her.

Beixi said again: "That door also needs spells, I don't dare to force it. Magic can't be fully used here~"

Beixi nodded in the air, and the light appeared and then disappeared quickly.Bei Xi raised his eyebrows, "Or are you afraid of us?"

Alena snorted coldly, "It's just a clown, who is afraid of you?" With the magic circle in his hand, Rashomon's hands were finally free.

I almost feel like I have no hands.

Rashomon rubbed his wrists and sighed.Then he walked to Beixi and sat down, seemingly peaceful.

The room began to fall into silence.

Weishengmo stood outside the door for an unknown amount of time. After receiving the news from Beixi, Weishengmo prepared to go back and find Ukiyoe and the others.

Beixi only said four words: Hold Quinn.

Time passed by minute by minute.

With his face propped up, Beixi casually asked Rashomon. "How long has it been?"

Rashomon said lightly, "10 minutes."

The two looked at Alena in the corner, "Are you sure Meredith still has time to wait?"

Alena smashed the book in her hand to the ground, "Golden scorpion."

The boa constrictor who was named raised his head, and looked at Aleena sleepily.She was very angry, her expression was a bit distorted, and her tone was full of gunpowder. "Look at the two of them!"

After speaking, he strode away.

The boa constrictor moved and surrounded them in a circle, then raised its head and spat out a message, the warning in its eyes was obvious.

After Beixi and the others left, they straightened up and stretched, with a relaxed expression and a smile on their faces.

"It's really not easy to lie."

Rashomon couldn't help laughing, "Compared to Quinn, it's easier to deceive." The two stood up, and the golden python opened its mouth to them, and the saliva flew, falling to the ground and gradually corroding.It has the meaning of intimidation.

When Beixi's fist touched the electric light, she raised her head and said to the golden python, "I really like beating snakes."

This python is a small boss of level 130, and the surrounding snakes also surround it. Although it is not as big as the golden python, there are still a few elites.

Although there are only Beixi and Rashomon, their output is already comparable to a 15-member team.

In 5 minutes, the golden scorpions and the snakes were eliminated, and Beixi kicked away the dead pythons.But he found something under the corpse. As the body rolled, the thing rolled out and landed at the foot of Beixi.Beixi bent down to pick it up and saw that it was a scroll.

"It's a bit unexpected to return something." Rashomon approached.

Beixi opened the scroll and was startled suddenly.

Seeing her expression, Rashomon thought that there must be something important on the scroll.

Beixi clicked his tongue twice, "This snake probably never left this room."

Rashomon: "President, what do you say?"

"Based on this thing on it, running out is equivalent to selling Meredith." Beixi flipped through the scroll, "This is the magic circle that unseals the seal."

"Release what?"

"[Book of Retribution]. Meredith did seal that book..."

Rashomon: "President, can you understand Goulds?"

"This is a mechanical script."

Three question marks popped up on Rashomon's head, he didn't understand.

"The method of sealing the book also came from Elzia, this scroll does not belong to Meredith."

It may be that she took it out when she stole the [Mechanical Tome].This sealing method will disguise the shell of the [Mechanical Canon], and even the title of the book can be changed.

This is a sealing method used by Elzia to protect the holy scriptures, but he did not expect it to be stolen in the end.

"Bring the book here."

Beixi studied the magic circle, and Rashomon went to the corner to pick up the [Book of Punishment] that Alena had discarded.

It's stupid to think about it.

He was so angry that he threw the books away, and didn't even tie them up.After all, it's a little tender~ If it's an old and cunning NPC, their methods may be completely useless.

"Need to draw a magic circle."

At this time, Rashomon received a message from Lollipop.

"Tangtang and the others are rushing towards us now, and Quinn is following closely."

Beixi heard the words, "Is that method delayed?"

"Quinn seems to have noticed something is wrong..."

"Then we don't have time. You go over with your book."

Beixi took out a magic pen. The magic circle was small but very cumbersome. She didn't have much time to worry about what the ancient mechanical language represented, so she could only draw it according to the scroll.

Time is running out.

Rashomon held the book, his mechanical beast was still outside, and had already detected a group of life forms.

Call up the screen to see not only the lollipops and the others, but also Quinn and Aleena behind them...

When they reached the door, they had no choice but to get entangled with those two people. Alena and Quinn quickly controlled them, and then she chanted a spell towards the door.

"President!"
