Chapter 132: Cracking the Rune Mystery
After escaping from the dangerous basement passage, Lin Feng and others stopped temporarily, breathing heavily.
"It was so thrilling just now. I almost got buried in it." Li San said with lingering fear, a look of fear on his face.
Wang Meng wiped the sweat from his face and said, "Humph, those dark creatures want to stop us? No way!"
Ling'er looked thoughtful, "Those runes must hold deeper secrets. We must find a way to decipher them."
Zhao Xue looked at Ling'er, "Ling'er, did you find anything?"
Ling'er nodded. "I feel like the arrangement and combination of those runes seem to follow some kind of pattern, but I haven't fully grasped it yet."
Lin Feng's eyes were determined. "Then let's study it carefully. Maybe this is the key to finding the core of magic."
Everyone sat together and began to carefully recall the appearance of the runes on the basement wall.
"I remember that several runes had similar shapes, but their positions seemed to have special meanings." Li San tried hard to recall.
Wang Meng scratched his head. "I just remember it was a chaotic time. I didn't have the energy to look at the runes."
Ling'er closed her eyes and said slowly, "I think we can't just look at a single rune. We need to think about the overall layout."
Zhao Xue continued, "Perhaps this is an ancient magical language, and we need to decipher the message it conveys."
Lin Feng stood up and said, "Then let's start analyzing from the most basic patterns and lines."
After some in-depth discussion and research, Ling'er's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I think I understand!" Ling'er said excitedly.
Everyone gathered around immediately.
Ling'er pointed to the simple rune pattern she had drawn on the ground. "Look, these runes may seem chaotic, but they are actually arranged in a specific order."
"What order?" Wang Meng asked anxiously.
Ling'er explained, "It's like a code. Each rune represents an element or a power. They are interconnected, forming a complex magic circle."
"Then how do we break this magic circle?" Li San asked.
Ling'er thought for a moment, "We need to find the core of the formation, which is the key rune, and then activate them in the correct order."
Lin Feng nodded, "Then let's go back and try again."
Everyone returned to the basement again. The basement had stopped shaking, but it was still filled with a dangerous atmosphere.
They approached the runes on the wall cautiously.
"Everyone, be careful and don't act rashly." Lin Feng reminded.
Ling'er observed the runes carefully and finally found the center of the formation.
"This is it!" Ling'er pointed at a rune that was flickering with light.
Lin Feng stood beside Ling'er and said, "Then let's get started."
Ling'er took a deep breath and began to activate the runes in the order she had deduced.
As the runes were lit up one by one, the surrounding space began to fluctuate.
"Will it succeed?" Li San clenched his fists nervously.
At the moment the last rune was activated, a ray of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire basement.
"What is this?" Wang Meng looked at the scene in surprise.
A mysterious voice echoed within the light: "Brave explorers, you have solved the mystery of the runes. The location of the magic core will be revealed to you."
Then, the light projected a map on the wall, marking the location of the magic core.
"Great, we finally have a clue!" Zhao Xue said excitedly.
Lin Feng looked at the map and said, "Everyone, get ready. The road ahead may be even more difficult."
Everyone moved forward towards the magic core with confidence...
