People are in Type-Moon, but they practice science

As for the secrets hidden in the room, after everything is moved back, he will directly use the ultimate weapon to forcibly analyze it.

----------

Next, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the two dodged the guards who might trigger the alarm, and found the passage to the fourth level, the management level, in the densely packed crystal forest on the third level. It didn't take too much effort.

It seems that because no one has visited it for thousands of years, the Alexandria Underwater Library only maintains the minimum self-defense mechanism and does not take active measures to examine the two people who took the route of tomb robbers.

When Qin Xuan and Bai Dewei walked into the fourth floor, they saw a blue ceiling and floor like the sea water. The surrounding walls and buildings were also made of obvious crystal materials.

In addition, the styles of facilities are also obviously different. If the third floor is a dense area of ​​crystal trees, then the fourth floor is a row of human-shaped crystal statues. However, there are no human faces on these statues.

"The principle of these statues seems to be similar to that of the two floors above. They should also be management devices with integrated intelligence functions."

[What kind of management is this? It's just full of weird statues.]

"Statue? Is it necessary to carve it into this posture?" Bai Dewei was also a little curious.

"In fact, it's not strange to make equipment into statues. First of all, this involves the cultural belief environment of ancient Egypt. Secondly, the style of the Atlas Institute itself is to use equipment to operate itself in a 'biological' way. The self-growing crystal trees just now, which serve as the 'trunk' of the library, are examples. So it makes sense that these statues serve as management equipment and become the 'brains'."

"Finally, the neatly arranged statues remind people of a 'temple'. Although the alchemy of the Atlas Academy is not the same as Western magic, they will never do useless work."

Qin Xuan believed that there must be some shameful mystery hidden here. He would find out what it was just by continuing to explore.

Based on their previous experience of being attacked by the autonomous defense function, the two did not touch these statue-shaped devices this time. Instead, they looked around and then went straight into the depths to explore.

Walking out of the blue temple room filled with statues, there is a wide corridor outside.

On both sides were the same faceless statues as before, and at the end of the corridor stood a huge door.

There seemed to be no traps. As soon as the two approached, the door opened automatically. Of course, this could also be because of the existence of something inside the door, making all the traps unnecessary.

First of all, compared to the bright view of sky blue and crystal outside, it is dark here, and the sudden difference in light and dark makes people's eyes at a loss.

However, Bai Dewei and Qin Xuan did not need to adapt to the changes in light and darkness. They directly observed the real scene inside -

"Zila Zila——"

"Hiss, hiss -"

Countless tiny sounds mixed in, like dry roars, like wet dirty sounds. In the distance, countless purple lightning flashed crosswise.

Like meteors flying in the dark universe, countless lightning bolts interweave, drawing a picture of the confrontation between light and shadow. At the end of the interweaving, dense and fierce lightning forms a vortex, circling and entangled with a human-shaped shadow.

"That shape is... the Pharaoh's coffin!"

Qin Xuan saw the intricate patterns on the surface of the coffin. Not only that, metal chains stretched out from the coffin in all directions. Together with the coffin, they were fixed in the storm formed by the strong wind and lightning, standing still.

The Pharaoh's coffin attracted all of Qin Xuan's attention.

"What is that...?" Qin Xuan couldn't see through it. The surface of the coffin was made of unknown technology. It was some kind of technology that isolated the inside and the outside. Unless it was opened actively, the true appearance inside could not be obtained.

However, when Qin Xuan slowly approached, the coffin began to shake.

"Om-"

The coffin shook slightly and did not open visibly, but something dangerous escaped - some kind of miasma that made people feel the threat of death.

Miasma? Some kind of poison with pathogenic factors, or...?

"not good!"

Qin Xuan reacted. He was not too worried about his own resistance. However, even though Bai Dewei was extremely powerful, he still had the physique of an ordinary person. He had no time to explain. The miasma rushed towards him as if it had met a target. He had to let Bai Dewei enter one of his caves first.

"I'm fine, but you have something to do. Come in first and I'll explain later!"

Without any explanation, he stuffed the reluctant Bai Dewei in.

Qin Xuan turned around and looked at the abyss-like thick miasma. What he didn't explain was that this miasma didn't feel like an ordinary disease, but a highly toxic gas similar to the energy concentration of the True Aether that he had drawn out from the spirit tomb.

It was a bit like the divine aura that was attracted when he summoned the incarnation of divine power, but it was more specific and directional. He could interpret the meaning of "death" from it.

"Is this... the so-called 'power'?"

When it comes to death, people usually think of the god of death, the god of the underworld, and other gods living in the underworld. However, when it appears in the coffin of the Egyptian pharaoh, it obviously narrows the scope to Egyptian mythology, such as Anubis, Osiris, etc.

But the unusual thing was that this Egyptian god chose herself as the target instead of Perdwei - she was merely affected, which showed that there was something in her that He valued.

As time passed, the miasma filled the entire room.

p.s. It seems that a new volume of the second adventure will be released this year, so I have to seal up Ergo to prevent him from being stabbed in the back)

Chapter 197 reveals the name of God, which is Osiris!

While Qin Xuan was indifferent, the lightning around the coffin was interweaving and spinning more wildly, forming a huge celestial vortex.

In the center of the vortex, a huge amount of miasma was released as if there was no end. They were majestic and powerful, like a tsunami. A mortal would fall into an eternal sleep of incomparable tranquility just by breathing in a breath, not to mention this huge amount of miasma.

If it were to happen outside, it would definitely cause deaths across the entire city. This is not an accident like all the teachers and students in Fuyuki City's school falling into a coma. Once it happens, don't even think about covering it up, it may even attract global attention.

"It seems that it is necessary to be cautious and come here in advance to investigate and eliminate the trouble."

Qin Xuan did not use the mirror space to absorb the miasma that was approaching his body in time. The first reason was that he did not want to use his own cave to absorb some messy things.

Secondly, he seems to have resistance to this death-prone power, which may be inherited from the Sea of ​​Life of Tima, and has similar characteristics to the power of life. Although it is only a limited skill of returning to magic (life essence) and summoning (generating fantasy species), it can still resist abnormal death to a certain extent.

"So, it reacted to something in my body... It can't be life that is the opposite of death, right?"

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, a drop of life essence fell into Qin Xuan's palm.

Almost instantly, the miasma sea began to riot. Then, the huge amount of miasma surrounding it began to rush towards the extremely tiny drop of life essence.

The coffin in the center of the lightning vortex began to sway even more violently, and the chains around it began to tremble violently, as if being constantly shaken by the authority of God.

"Um--?"

Qin Xuan did not miss the process of the miasma rushing towards the source of life. During his observation, the miasma swallowed up that little bit of source of life very smoothly, digesting it cleanly like a whale.

The next moment, the sea of ​​miasma underwent inexplicable changes, but they were very small, so small that even Qin Xuan could not determine the specific nature of the changes.

"If that's the case, then give us more," Qin Xuan looked at the sea of ​​miasma surrounding him from all directions, "but the other party has too many samples, so it's not worthwhile to do such an experiment."

He stretched out his hand and opened one of the miniature caves. A large mass of miasma was sucked into the confined small space without any resistance. At the same time, Qin Xuan invested a certain amount of life essence into it.

"That way, we should be able to know the whole situation."

From Qin Xuan's perspective, inside the "Dongtian Laboratory", the miasma that filled the narrow space began to blend with the life source that was thrown in. The liquid that was originally full of extremely strong vitality and the miasma that symbolized death began to blend with each other.

At first, there was a crackling sound of mutual repulsion, and then the two began to shrink repeatedly and forcibly merge under the active siege and compression of the miasma. The original one cubic meter of life source and the miasma hundreds of times larger, after the two interacted and merged, shrunk to a volume of less than one cubic centimeter, forming a pure black, ellipsoidal round jade.

Hmm, very un-mass-conserving.

Qin Xuan weighed the round jade in his hand and made a judgment, but he still couldn't figure out its function.

Judging from his personal familiarity with the life part of this round jade material, it may be the so-called "death and rebirth" nature.

But how to die and how to regenerate specifically, putting the person down and then reviving him? But that is meaningless, just like nothing.

Qin Xuan decided to put this mysterious substance aside. He faced the coffin swaying in the sky and already had the answer in his mind.

The answer to this Egyptian god's identity.

I just said that miasma brings death, because in ancient times, death was often associated with epidemic miasma, and the one in charge of all this was naturally the underworld. Among the Egyptian gods, there was only one god who was both the god of the underworld and often associated with "death and resurrection."

That is Osiris.

He is the god of the underworld and one of the nine Egyptian gods. Legend has it that he was a king loved by the people during his lifetime. He taught people how to grow crops and make wine, so he is also the god of agriculture, plants, and harvest. But his brother Set was very jealous of him, so he tricked him into a coffin and sealed it, and finally threw him into the Nile and drowned him. This caused the Nile to flood once a year.

His wife Isis intended to resurrect him, but Set killed Osiris again and cut him into fourteen pieces. Anubis and Isis could not find all of them, so they wrapped the pieces in a shroud, made the world's first mummy, and resurrected him again.

Thus, Osiris became the most famous god to have been reborn repeatedly.

The coffin in front of him was undoubtedly the coffin containing the body of Osiris.

"Since you can't move, I'll help you."

Qin Xuan used the Lotus Staff and cast a spell through the air to cut off the connection between the chains and the coffin, peeling the coffin off from the seal of the heavy chains.

"Om-"

It was the sound of chains falling off.

"boom----"

Almost at the same time, a huge thunder exploded.

Swirls of lightning and roaring storms began to fall, carrying the huge coffin with them.

Thunder and lightning raged, spreading around the coffin as if freed from its restraints, forming a dense and terrifying lightning net. At the same time, the storm blew through the vast room, spreading the vast breath of the gods.

The coffin lid began to slide.

"That's-? Huh? Weird, there's nothing?"

The moment the coffin lid fell off, Qin Xuan discovered the situation inside: there was no materialized physical body at all, only a weak spiritual reaction. This spiritual reaction was like the remaining fragments of the spirit body being peeled off and cut off.

If a mortal were treated like this, the soul fragments would definitely not be preserved, but it is different for gods.

"A god... the remains of a god's body after his death?"

In other words, this Osiris has no self-will at all? It is even possible that his power is incomplete, so his subconscious desire for life substances is also an instinctive behavior to complete himself?

After the coffin was opened, the stirring sea of ​​miasma began to swirl around the coffin, like an invisible mourning, or an unconscious welcome to the owner's return to the world.

"No consciousness," Qin Xuan slowly approached the coffin, "Which means - it can be mine?"

From repeated detection and analysis, this coffin of Osiris should have been specially adjusted by the alchemists of the Age of Gods. This is why the body of Osiris is incomplete. From the characteristics of the system of the Ayuan, it is nothing more than a part of some kind of device function.

But what does all this have to do with Qin Xuan?

Chapter 198 Come, Sky Dragon of Osiris!

Qin Xuan's action was not without basis. In addition to his analysis of the divine body in the coffin, he also discovered that the divine body was not connected to the library's management device. It was really strange but fortunate. It should be that when A Yuan was building the underwater library with Ptolemy, a certain alchemist, or Ptolemy himself, had a private plan and deliberately disconnected the coffin from everything in the library and placed it here.

As for what that person was planning, maybe it failed, maybe it hasn't started yet. Anyway, Qin Xuan didn't care. He only cared that now was a good time to pick peaches.

Spatial fluctuations began to appear around.

The miasma covering the vast space, along with the coffin in the center, were all affected. They seemed to be attracted by a certain central point. Overlapping mirror images appeared, the shape of the space was distorted, the majestic miasma and the intertwined lightning storm were twisted and absorbed like a vortex, and then the coffin with great divine power was also teleported in.

"------"

Transformation of heaven and earth.

In Qin Xuan's main cave, the world tree, which is larger, greener and more vibrant than three years ago, and the vast world island stand in the center.

Surrounding it is an ocean of chaos that stretches as far as the eye can see, the beginning of the source of life.

The coffin of Osiris began to fall, accompanied by dense lightning and storms, followed by countless miasma.

But this grand scene is only a tiny corner compared to the ocean of life source.

Qin Xuan looked at the body of Osiris and the lightning, storms, and death scenes surrounding it, as if an ancient mystery of huge mass yet tiny size was thrown into the ocean that still remained in its primitive state.

In Egyptian mythology, the Nile River is called the Mother River and the River of Life, because it not only brings water, but its annual flooding also brings fertile soil to both sides of the river, giving rise to the prosperity of ancient Egyptian civilization. This is the source of the world-renowned saying "Egypt is the gift of the Nile."

In the myth, it was the Nile River that enabled Osiris to complete the ritual of death and rebirth.

From the essence of life, his life source is not far off, otherwise Osiris would not instinctively crave this substance to make himself complete. In other words, Osiris, the god of the underworld, is closely connected with the Nile River, which symbolizes rebirth.

Just as his heel was held upside down by his mother and dipped in the water of the Styx, making it invulnerable to swords and spears; just as Christ himself was baptized in the Jordan River and reborn from the water.

In addition, the Nile River's symbolism of life and death is also closely linked to the belief in the sun god. Legend has it that the sun god Ra sailed on the Nile River in the sky during the day and sailed on the Nile River underground at night. This is a legend built on the ancient Egyptian mythological belief in the rising and setting of the sun. The process of the sun god constantly traveling back and forth on the Nile River is also seen as a side reflection of the process of life and death.

At the end of the Middle Kingdom of Ancient Egypt (around 1600 BC), the belief in the sun god Ra began to be confused with the belief in Osiris. In other words, Osiris, who was in charge of the cycle of life and death, could also be regarded as the sun god.

In short, what ties all these connections of Egyptian mythology together is the Nile River, the river of life and death itself.

At this time, Qin Xuan was paying full attention to the changes in Osiris's body and power in the Ocean of Life Essence.

This great mystery ceremony, with gods as the main body and myths and legends as the model, was successfully held without the knowledge of outsiders.

The fragments of Osiris' spirit were restored by the life force, and his power was unified by the rapidly restored divine power. According to the development process in this myth, the next step was the rebirth of the god.

“However, there will be a slight change here.”

Qin Xuan, who had been paying close attention to the resurrection ceremony, had now determined that even if Osiris pieced the spiritual fragments together, he could only barely restore it to something like an incarnation of power. Although it was somewhat stronger than the empty shells of divine power summoned in London, it was still not a complete state because it had been divided by someone in advance.
