Chapter 190: Images From Ten Thousand Years Ago
After the runic structure of the high platform was repaired, besides the changes in the whole building, Lolth could see an additional change that others could not.
That was the change of the high platform itself.
When the entire building lit up, a faint sound came from the high platform.
"Buzz—"
Then, a series of sounds formed by magical waves occurred, as if saying something.
But that was likely a language from an ancient civilization, and Lolth could not understand what it was saying.
After the sound rang out, the green light from the runes on the high platform grew brighter, gathering above into a… projection image.
The words that were just as confusing flowed together with the rune symbols, weaving into different buttons and borders.
Although Lolth could not understand the text or voice, the style felt strangely familiar to her.
"What is this… is it a magical front-end interface?"
She had also created something similar at the core of the torture tower using Abyssal Crystal, inspired by the front-end design of electronic devices from her past life, to control the entire formation of the torture tower.
But now it seemed that the ancient magical civilization had developed an even more advanced version—this once again changed Lolth’s understanding of the development of these civilizations.
"So, we’ve already entered the age of magical electrification and even information technology, right…?"
Just by looking at the design, this device is more advanced than the one inside the torture tower.
Using a hint of magic, she tried to touch the projection, and it immediately reacted.
"It really is a touch system; no matter which world, this light and airy way of interacting represents advancement and the future, right?"
Lolth, a fan of mechanical buttons, expressed her dissatisfaction.
This interface is clearly designed for professionals; besides the frame, five square button icons, and the names and descriptions next to the buttons, there are no extra structures or decorations.
Worried about any self-destruct mechanisms hidden in these buttons, Lolth carefully ensured that she, as the sole source of magic for the entire core, could cut off the magic supply at any moment to disable all functions before she started to poke the first button.
Suddenly, she felt the magic she was steadily releasing being sharply drained, and all the runes around the Divine Throne lit up as if to inject a huge amount of magic into the Divine Throne!
This startled Lolth; even though this evil god was dead, gods are beings that cannot be understood by ordinary logic—who knows what kind of strange things might happen if this magic stimulated the remains of a god?
She quickly cut off the magic supply and, after everything settled down, she began to try again.
"It looks like the first function is to charge the Divine Throne…"
She murmured this and pressed the second button.
The threads suddenly glowed, sending magical energy outside, but…
Then there was no more response.
Lolth felt where the magic was going and roughly understood.
This function probably activated those circular altars outside.
However, those circular altars outside this building had completely ceased to work.
If those circular altars were fixed, it was unknown what would happen.
Lolth pressed the third button again.
This time, the projection itself changed.
A row of horizontal buttons appeared.
In the lower right corner, there is a button marked with a single rune. Lolth guessed it might be the return button, so she pressed it.
"Hmm, it really is the return button."
She clicked on the third button again and started to press the buttons in the horizontal row.
After clicking the first one, the entire screen changed once more.
Green light intertwined and moved, with more and more colors appearing, until it finally turned into a real image.
The scene that appeared on the screen was exactly what was happening inside the hall.
The hall filled with green light looked just like it did now, and everything was running as usual.
A group of young girls dressed lightly walked around, holding different boards and short staffs, occasionally stopping to recharge a single rune, seemingly maintaining and repairing the Divine Throne.
Their faces were almost the same as those of the beings in the hall, most of their hair was black, likely a reflection of their lives before.
In front of the tall platform, there were also four girls standing, calmly using old metal short staffs to operate the panel.
Then, one of the girls said something, and this video ended, automatically returning to the previous screen.
Lolth looked back at a few more, noticing that the content was almost the same as the words in their titles.
"It must be a recording feature… These titles probably mean ‘Daily Maintenance 1’, ‘Daily Maintenance 2’, and so on…"
Lolth complained like this while flipping through these buttons.
Soon, she discovered a different title.
One button’s title was noticeably longer and contained different content.
And the titles of a few buttons behind it had also changed style.
When she opened it, there was indeed different content.
The green light inside the hall has dimmed a lot. The young girls, dressed lightly, are running around eagerly, different from their usual calm demeanor. They seem to be urgently starting things here, calling out to each other nonstop.
"This is a special situation."
Lolth perked up at this and continued to watch.
She began to wonder if this was a scene of an evil god invasion.
However, considering that there are still several videos to watch, Lolth felt that the possibility was low.
But it must be some kind of crisis.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t understand what they were saying and didn’t know what they were experiencing.
She could only guess that it might be something like an attack.
The four girls around the stone platform were acting more urgently than usual, poking with their metal staffs continuously.
However, Lolth noticed that the Divine Throne behind them was still empty.
This puzzled her a bit.
From her understanding of this structure, it was clear that the control of this stone platform was quite simple and was meant to assist.
Sitting on the Divine Throne should be the true way to control the core.
If there was a crisis, someone should be sitting there.
Just as Lolth expected, soon a new girl rushed in from outside the scene, heading straight for the Divine Throne.
Then, the four girls said something to that figure, and the new girl nodded and turned to sit on the Divine Throne.
But when that girl turned around, Lolth was left completely stunned.
Because the girl with long black hair and a blue robe looked exactly like the "Evil God Girl" sitting on the throne!
