"Have you cracked those cuneiform characters?" Longanus looked at the two human sacrifice pillars in front of him in surprise. Although he had already tried it just now, he still couldn't help being curious and reached out to touch the human sacrifice pillars in front of him.

Zhu, and asked urgently.

He knew very well how this kind of human sacrifice pillar appeared. The scholars who studied cuneiform with him all became this thing. The research team tried to use various methods to treat them, but none of them worked. They even used some

The power of the gods is useless, and the human sacrifice pillar still contains some power and hurts those who touch it. Therefore, the result of the research team is that this power can be protected and blocked, but it cannot be controlled.

However, the two human sacrifice pillars in front of him showed another result to Longnus. The people who became the human sacrifice pillars were two spies or killers from the church state, but Leo and Sylvia had no trace of anything.

The injured person sat next to him, and the most important point was that the power contained in the two human sacrifice pillars did not cause harm to those who touched it. This meant that the power inside the human sacrifice pillars was controlled, which made him guess that Lei

Ou has cracked the cuneiform script and mastered the power contained in the cuneiform script.

"No." Leo shook his head, then took out some of the information he had compiled, put it on the table, and said: "This kind of cuneiform writing contains too much knowledge, far more than these words.

In itself, I have only compiled part of the content that I can see, but compared to the cuneiform information you gave me, this part of the content is just a point of light in the night sky."

"Did you really crack it?" Longanus's face was full of shock. Although he had already made some guesses about Leo's cracking of cuneiform just now, it was still difficult for him to actually hear the answer from Leo's mouth.

Confidence.

Because he is very aware of how difficult it is to decipher these cuneiform characters. The relevant research group has been established at the beginning of the founding of the Ot Federation. He has joined the research group for decades, and the entire deciphering work is progressing extremely slowly. Most of them

The achievements were all achieved after he joined. Part of the reason why he is able to have his current status in the Ott Federation is for this reason.

But now Leo has clearly stated that he has deciphered part of the cuneiform data in his hand, and it was within a few days. Even if it is only part of it as he said, it is unimaginable.

Longanus couldn't wait to see what Leo had cracked, and stretched out his hand, ready to pick up the information.

But Leo pressed the file in advance and said, "You can't read these yet."

Longanus frowned. Although he was a little unhappy, he felt that Leo's actions should have other meanings.

I saw that after Leo stopped Longanus, he said: "There are too many twisted powers accumulated in your body. Part of the content in this document will trigger these powers, so before you look at these powers, you'd better wear enough

Something powerful prevents the twisted power in the body from exploding."

"Twisting power?" A look of confusion appeared on Longanus's face.

Leo did not give a specific explanation. He just pointed to the human sacrifice pillar on the side. Longenus showed a clear expression. The research team would also use a name to refer to the mysterious power contained in the cuneiform script. It was just that

The nickname is not as random as Leo, it sounds more mysterious and powerful.

After knowing that the file might trigger the twisted power in his body, Longanus had to suppress his curiosity. Not to mention reading it, he didn't even want to touch it now, so he motioned to the assistant next to him.

, asked the assistant to put the document in a special box and seal it temporarily.

He planned to wait until he found a rare object with strong enough protective power before looking at the documents. As for handing over the documents for others to study, this was completely outside his scope.

Longenus continued: "The proposal for letting you come into contact with that thing has been submitted to the committee and is now in the discussion stage. But now that we have your research document as a basis, I believe we will get the exact information in the next two days.

Then, he pointed to the two human sacrifice pillars and said, "What are you going to do with these?"

Leo said casually: "I'll leave it to you, I don't need this thing."

Hearing what Leo said, Longanus whispered a few instructions to his assistant. After waiting for a moment, he saw some people from the special forces of the Ministry of Education and Education walking in. They pushed in two large boxes like coffins at the same time.

, there were a large number of mysterious inscriptions engraved on the surface of the box. They each took out a long pole similar to a grabbing device, then each grabbed a position of the human sacrifice pillar, put it into the coffin with the inscription, and closed the lid.

Finally, they were each covered with an additional piece of old-looking rag.

Leo's eyes lingered on the rags for a moment, because he could feel that there was some power similar to witchcraft contained in those two rags.

Longanus also saw where Leo's gaze fell, so before Leo could ask, he took the initiative to answer: "Those are two sage robes."

Leo hesitated for a moment and confirmed: "Is he a sage from the Old Continent Academy City?"

The school city in the old continent is a very famous place. Even though the school city has declined now, the school city is still very famous.

It is unknown when the Academy was established. The only thing that can be confirmed is that in the kingdoms and empires of the ancient Old Continent, the advisors to kings and grand dukes, prime ministers and other high-ranking people were all held by people from the Academy.

For a long time, this was an unwritten rule in various countries in the Old World.

The sages of the academy must be the most outstanding among all scholars. The ancient ritual method of selecting sages has been forgotten. Now the sages of the academy need a council of sages to submit proposals, including more than half of the registered scholars in the academy.

Only by agreeing with it can the scholar become a sage.

Although as each country established its own national academies, the role of the school city has rapidly diminished, and its reputation has also declined. However, the sages of the school city still have an extraordinary status, even compared to the popes and saints of some churches.

All are noble.

After hearing Leo's question, Longonus nodded, and revealed what Leo was thinking, saying: "You suspect that they are wizards in this world, right?"

"You doubt it too?" Leo heard another meaning in Longanus' words.

Longanus nodded and said: "I did doubt it in the past, but now I am very sure that they are not wizards, at least not the current sages."

"Why do you say that?" Leo asked puzzledly.

Longanus took out a badge-like thing from his underwear buckle, showed it to Leo, and said: "Because I am the sage of the academy, so I know very well who the sage of the academy is now.

What's the situation?" As he said that, he changed the topic and said: "But if you have time, you can still go to the academy to take a look. I think the original founder of the academy should have some relationship with the tower wizard.

It’s just that the school city has experienced many devastating disasters, and there is very little information about the past. Most of them are made up by some people and are not trustworthy.”

"These two sage robes...?" Leo asked, pointing to the box being carried out.

"Bought it for thirty gold nuggets." Longanus told an incredible price, and then added with a sense of satisfaction: "Bought it from the director of the archives of the college. I bought fifteen pieces.

"

Kinnar is the currency of the Old World. When converted into federal currency, it is almost equivalent to the annual income of an ordinary farmer. But using this amount of money to buy fifteen robes with witchcraft-like powers is like picking it up for free.

"Why..." Leo couldn't help but wonder.

Longenus said with great disdain: "People in the world are always easily blinded by gorgeous appearances, and this is especially true for those degenerates who are blinded by money." After that, he said as a reminder: "If you still want to

If you want to find anything valuable in the school city, you have to leave as soon as possible, otherwise, sooner or later, those guys will tear down the city and sell it."

After that, Longenus seemed unwilling to mention the things about the school city any more. He changed the topic a little, and after chatting for a few words, he got up and left in a hurry. However, before leaving, he seemed to remember something and picked it up again.

A piece of information was given to Leo. The information was related to the Ot Federation's exploration of Mount Trub. Most of the content in it was undisclosed.

"If you hadn't handed the research document to him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have taken it out." Sylvia walked out of the back room and looked at the document in Leo's hand with a rather contemptuous tone.

said.

Although Sylvia respects the old man Rembrandt very much, she dislikes the current Longenus very much. Under the influence of this emotion, she does not think that Longenus, who has the memory of the old Rembrandt, is the same as Longenus.

What does Old Man Brown have to do with him, so when Longanus came, she chose to avoid him, out of sight and out of mind.

Leo smiled and didn't say anything. He didn't particularly care about it. After all, Longenus still retained some of Rembrandt's character and memory. Can the two be regarded as the same person?

It doesn't matter much to him. What he cares about is how many useful things the other party can bring to him. At least from now on, the appearance of Longanus saves him a lot of energy and time that he needs to spend on his own exploration.

.

"What do you think of the last words he said?" Leo did not rush to open the information, but asked Sylvia seriously.

"The last words you said? Did you mean the Gutar River?" Sylvia's mind recalled the words Longnus chatted with before leaving.

"No." Leo corrected: "It's the school city. He said that if you want to find anything valuable from the school city, you must leave as soon as possible."

Sylvia thought for a moment and said, "Are you saying that he is deliberately suggesting that we leave as soon as possible?"

Leo nodded and said: "The hint is definitely a hint, but now I'm wondering why he would make such a hint?"

"The federal government wants to be detrimental to us?" Sylvia quickly made a guess, but after saying it, she smiled and shook her head, denying the guess, not to mention why the federal government wanted to be detrimental to the couple.

, even if he wants to do something unfavorable, he should take action only after Leo has researched how to maximize the grenade and design a weapon of great destruction that can be mass-produced. Now he has no clue about the weapon design, so he starts taking action.

No matter how stupid a person is, no one should do such a thing.

However, Leo did not seem to deny this speculation like Sylvia did. Instead, after thinking very seriously for a moment, he asked: "Under what circumstances do you think the federal government will be disadvantageous to us now?"

Sylvia couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect that Leo would actually agree with the guess she denied, but she didn't ask any more questions, but thought about it seriously, and during the thinking process, the look on her face

Her expression gradually became serious, and she was heard to say in a deep voice: "According to normal circumstances, it is impossible for the federal government to be unfavorable to us at this time, but if it is an abnormal situation, then this kind of thing may happen.

.”

"Be specific." Leo said.

"If the final benefits are far less than the possible losses, then they may cut off the causes of the possible losses in order to ensure the final benefits." Sylvia said seriously: "For example, if we ask for a close visit

Close access to the federal government’s collection of secret weapons.”

Leo was silent for a moment and said, "Are we acting too hasty?"

Sylvia nodded and said: "It's true. Starting from Beluk City, we have repeatedly stated and hinted that we want to study the secret weapons collected by the federal government. This matter would not have happened at other times.

If there is any problem, they will only think that we are all scholars with a strong curiosity and desire for research. But under the current situation, the top officials of the federal government will have to doubt some of our intentions. If at this time

If some chess pieces controlled by the church state within the federal government continue to add fuel to the flames, then the federal government will easily think that we may be spies sent by the church state, and everything we have done before is just bait, for the secret that the federal government has collected.

arms."

Leo frowned and said solemnly: "Don't they want to maximize the grenades?"

"No, maximizing grenades may be of great value to them, but this value is relative. If another thing with higher value appears, then maximizing grenades will become of little value, such as the one from the federal government.

Secret weapon." Sylvia analyzed carefully: "And for the federal government, even if the grenades are not maximized, the current grenade power alone is enough for them to use. The only difference between the two is whether the war will end sooner or later.

The final casualties and losses are just the size, and to those politicians at the top, the casualties and losses of the people at the bottom are just a number."
