Shock! The Spell Is In English!

Yes, this was indeed a waste of life.

As he once said to Clare, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and beautiful scenery, were also a waste of life.

But this was a beautiful way to waste life.

However, many people could not satisfy their own needs, so they had to do something. Naturally, they did not have the right to enjoy and waste life.

In the quiet and uninhabited forest, Lugh walked up the stone steps alone. Not long after, he saw a Divine Monument.

He walked to the front of the Divine Monument and saw that the surface of the monument was filled with horizontal slashes. There were no vertical slashes, nor were there any words. There were not even any patterns or lines.

At first glance, this was just an ordinary stone monument.

If he didn’t use the system, Lugh wouldn’t be able to tell what was special about these stone monuments.

However, it didn’t matter.

He wasn’t in a hurry to communicate with these Divine Monuments at all. He shook his head and continued to move forward.

Not far ahead, he saw another Divine Monument.

There was a cliff here, and in front of the cliff was a thatched cottage. The Divine Monument was inside the thatched cottage.

The thatched eaves spread out to the world. No matter how strong the wind and rain were, it would be very difficult to wet this Divine Monument.

Lugh walked into the thatched cottage and looked at the Divine Monument. His mind was slightly stirred.

The shape of this Divine Monument was actually not very neat. Its thickness was not even uniform. Compared to the common stone tablets in the world, it was more like an unfinished product.

The surface of the Divine Monument was very smooth. It was unknown how many hands had touched it.

It seemed that it had been lit up many times. Otherwise, this situation would not have happened.

Someone had even specially built this thatched cottage in order to light it up.

Lugh controlled himself to not look at the contents of the stone monument. Instead, he looked at the surroundings outside the thatched cottage.

The surroundings were filled with lush forests. The stone steps meandered all the way from the foot of the mountain to here. In front of him was a flat stone platform.

Between the shadows of the forest, one could vaguely see the eaves of other huts in the distance. However, he could not see the road leading to other places.

Looking at this scene, Lugh seemed to be deep in thought.

The morning light shone on the stone platform. The breeze passed through the forest. A few kingfishers chirped happily, thinking of flying into the sky.

Lugh came back to his senses. He looked at the Divine Monument in the hut. He subconsciously placed his hands behind his back and quietly began to observe.

When his gaze fell on the monument, his heartbeat could not help but quicken.

The surroundings of the thatched cottage were very quiet. Lugh was alone.

The scene yesterday was completely different. At that time, there were tens to hundreds of examinees surrounding this thatched cottage.

The scene had been very quiet, but there were too many people. It was inevitable that it would be crowded. The sound of clothes rubbing against each other and footsteps did not stop. A large search went on for half the night, but the people did not leave. Instead, they lit up the lanterns in the thatched cottage.

There were countless thoughts in the Divine Monument Garden on this continent. Many sects and academies had people entering to see the Divine Monument.

The examinees all knew that after the initial excitement, they woke up and understood that the official’s offer was not something that could happen overnight. They had to take good care of their bodies and calm down the irritation in their hearts. Since they could not communicate with the Divine Monument for the time being, they did not have to keep fighting, they had to find a place to rest.

Therefore, those examinees who had not successfully lit a Divine Monument yesterday had all found a place to rest in the forest. They should still be sleeping soundly at this moment.

Lugh weighed up the process and looked at the Divine Monument seriously.

Different from the first Divine Monument that Lugh had seen, the surface of this Divine Monument was black. There were countless thick, thin, deep, and shallow lines on it.

Those lines were carved out with some sharp object. The transitions were very casual and covered the entire surface of the monument. These lines had countless teachings and appeared complicated. If one looked at them with emotion, it was as though one could add the meaning of history to them, or one could see some ancient meaning in these lines.

However, if one calmed down and took out all the emotions and reverence towards the Divine Monument, the lines actually didn’t have any pattern, nor did they have any meaning. They were like a child scribbling something on the wall.

Of course, only Lugh alone dared to think this way.

Most people in the rune world believed that these lines were naturally formed, possessing the secrets of Heaven and Earth.

Today was the first time Lugh had seen the legendary Divine Monument, so he naturally didn’t have the ability to make a judgment. The reason why his heart began to beat faster when his gaze landed on the monument wasn’t that he understood something at first glance, nor was it because he was shocked after seeing these lines. It was just that the appearance of the legend naturally brought about an emotional fluctuation.

He had seen the traces on this Divine Monument, or the inscriptions.

There were no coincidences or miracles. Many people had seen these inscriptions that were difficult to understand because of sadness.

This was because after the examinees had seen these inscriptions, they would draw these traces again according to their own memories.

He had seen these lines in the past few days because Elizabeth had given him a book. The book contained records of the contents of the Divine Monument.

However, they were meaningless. Although these inscriptions had been copied into the book, they could not be comprehended. At most, they could only show the contents of the legendary Divine Monument to satisfy the curiosity of the people in the rune world.

Therefore, when Lugh saw Elizabeth’s book, he knew that it was meaningless, so he threw it aside.
