The elves cleaned up the altar thoroughly, and all of the ancient wizard servants’ corpses (the first generation of ant men) were moved together with the altar to the corner of the garden in the eastern part of the palace. At that moment, the ancestral remains in the altar turned into wizard servants, and all of the elves were discussing the corpses that were inside the altar.
Instead of filling up the original altar, Wendy had assigned guards to watch it. The altar was built on the oldest tomb of the elves. Although it wasn’t very big inside, the elves all still worshipped the Lord of Natural Order here.
Wendy carried a torch as she went inside the tomb that was under the altar. She looked very dignified and her proud eyes revealed her stubbornness.
She had examined all of the corpses of the wizard servants. She was sure that they were not put in later, but had existed here ever since the birth of the elves. Wendy then read all of the information about the gods and the Lord of Natural Order.
Wendy often read about global history, including the information of the ancient gods. In fact, Wendy read the ancient books day and night, including the histories of human beings, sahagins, and orcs.
This made her brother Wolfe worried, so he always would ask her about it. But, no matter how he much he asked her about it, Wendy remained silent and would not tell Wolfe anything.
Wendy had remained silent because she thought that she had found out a terrible truth, which frightened her very much! Everything she had imagined seemed to have gradually turned into reality!
Currently, in the tomb, Wendy saw a slab that seemed to have some of the the earliest languages of the elves recorded upon it, as well as some of old drawings that clearly depicted the earliest history of the birth of the elves.
“What is this?” Wendy murmured as she looked down at the slab with wide eyes.
As she examined it closer, she saw that this stone slab was quite different from others in regards to material and design. It looked as white as a piece of white jade, but it was laid under the altar along with all of the ordinary slabs.
Wendy brushed away the dust from its surface, revealing complicated patterns underneath. These patterns formed a witchcraft tactical deployment circle!
If Lu Zhiyu had been here, he could have immediately recognized that this was what he had left here! It was used by the wizard servants as a dimensional door, allowing them to come from the dimensional castle to the Forest of Life!
“Witchcraft tactical deployment circle!” Wendy frowned, still murmuring, even though she was alone. “This looks kind of familiar…”
Wendy thought she had seen this tactical deployment circle somewhere before. Wendy carefully watched the tactical deployment circle, then finally remembered its origin and function. Just like the dimensional door tactical deployment circle that was engraved on the tower badge that was given to them by Anthony, as long as it was activated, it could open the dimensional channel to another place!
“Is the truth at the end of the door?” Wendy asked herself.
As her slender fingers brushed the slab some more, every line of the pattern was completely exposed. Then, she instilled her mind power into the tactical deployment circle above the slab.
The slab, which had been left here for many decades, was immediately activated. Its lights flowed around, covered Wendy entirely, then disappeared with Wendy under the altar!
After awhile, when Wendy opened her eyes again, she found that it was a dark world without any light. Yet, she could still see with her mind power.
She saw that she was inside a huge building, and the instant Wendy came, the induction light inside the building had turned on.
She was now inside a long passage, which had a lot of cages on both sides of it. Itn fact, it kind of looked like the prison of the wizard tower.
The light source looked somewhat like a vapor lamp, but Wendy had never seen such an extraordinary vapor lamp before. So, perhaps it was best described as being more like an alchemy lamp.
On top of the door was the number that was taught to them by their mentor, Anthony. In addition, there were a lot of unfamiliar words. Wendy walked all the way to the end of the passageway and found a switch that controlled all of the lamps.
Currently, there was a large hall in front of her, but there was no door to the hall, as it was a building without an exit. A crystal chandelier had apparently fallen in the center of the hall.
It could been be seen from the mass accumulation of dust on the ground that the castle had not been cleaned for a long time. Thus, it was an abandoned castle! Most of the lights in the hall had been damaged, and the rest were faintly flickering. As she walked up the broad steps of the hall, Wendy found that this building was quite similar to the wizard tower.
Upstairs were restaurants, huge pools, lounges, bedrooms, and a huge library that encompassed an entire floor! The library had a variety of books, which were written in human, Phinks, Orcish Sofawk, Tuten and other various languages. There were even more books that were written languages that Wendy had never even heard of!
There were also a lot of delicate alchemy tools that Wendy didn’t know much about. They looked like another type of alchemy that Wendy didn’t understand. As such, Wendy did not check these very carefully, but went directly to the top of the building
Here, she found a huge botanical garden. Sadly, the plants in the botanical garden had already withered.
Through the top glass window, Wendy could see the intense space storm and the folded space outside. As she peered through the window, various strange scenes appeared in front of her.
Where on earth am I? Am I still in Maria’s World?
Everything here made Wendy feel confused. This place didn’t belong to the world she knew. She felt a panic rise from the bottom of her heart.
Wendy then checked every corner of the building. Finally, she found the laboratory on the third floor. On a shelf in the laboratory, there were a lot of folders, each of which had accumulated a thick layer of dust over time.
There was a storage room inside the lab, which had a lot of frozen blood, plant seeds, organs, embryos and petri dishes in it. There were all kinds of checks and numbers written on the labels of these things, as well as many scrawled words that Wendy couldn’t read.
Wendy left this inner storage room and returned to the laboratory just outside of it. As a wizard who often carried out bloodline transplantation and body remodeling, all the materials here were somewhat familiar to her.
She took some files from the shelf beside her. Although she couldn’t read what was written on them, as it was some language she couldn’t understand, there were a lot of pictures that she tried to decipher.
It seemed that the information in the files detailed some experiments. As Wendy flipped through the files, she stopped at a familiar picture of a mermaid.
The mermaid in the picture was not formed completely. Instead, it was soaked in liquid and had been placed in a glass jar. Wendy then followed the pictures in succession, which showed that the mermaid was shaped little by little before it grew into a complete mermaid!
From the pictures, Wendy could tell that there were many experimental failures and successes throughout this cultivation process of the mermaids. This was a clearly research and data process information about how the mermaids were bred from a glass jar via a bloodline cultivation method. This was how the mermaids were bred and transformed little by little!
Mermaids! That’s how the mermaids were born! They were born here, and in a glass jar!
Wendy could barely believe it! She felt that the world she knew had collapsed in front of her. The truth she had longed to find now seemed so cruel at the moment. It actually frightened her that the mermaids were born this way.
What about others, like the human beings? What about the orcs? Elves?
Wendy then started to flip through all of the folders in a frenzy. As she did so, she saw all kinds of cultivation records and experiments regarding every type of species, including rat men, tiger men, human beings, and even dragon raja, which had apparently been bred from a stone egg!
Next, she pulled out a pamphlet from one of the huge shelves in the middle. As soon as she opened it, a folder fell from inside of it, then fluttered to the ground.
Among the now scattered pages, she stooped down to see a tremendous Tree of Life on a yellowed page. Right beside the tree was a beautiful creature with pointed ears and long hair! There were also a large number of words and figures that were swirling around them!
This was clearly a record of the bloodline cultivation and the production of the elves!
