Walking downstairs to the apartment, before going upstairs, Fang Yu first checked the carriage and the corpse in front of him.
He walked to the carriage and saw that the carriage had long been corroded by the bone dragon's acidic spit. The roof was empty, and the seats and the inner walls of the carriage were scorched black. When he opened the broken door, there was a suitcase in the carriage. It looked like
The original owner was planning to travel far away.
However, Fang Yu knew that the original owner might not necessarily be the person he was looking for, and the carriage might not necessarily belong to that official. He only quickly rummaged through the contents of the box, but did not find any valuable clues.
Fang Plover exited the carriage again, walked to the front and looked at the corpses of two horses and one person - the two horses had been corroded to the point where only their skeletons were left. They knelt forward, with their charred intestines hanging on the gray ribs.
It was still warm and emitting curls of white smoke - he frowned and walked around the stinking place, and observed the scene from the front again.
Viewed from this direction, the bone dragon's spit range almost completely covered the carriage. He raised his head and calculated the opponent's flight route at that time, which was just a simple feat for the combat craftsman.
The streets were empty. Apart from the damaged buildings, the only thing that was attacked was this carriage. Fang Yu pondered for a moment, opened the community and entered the words 'Vanrick, Jackdaw Street', and the community immediately called
Hundreds of entries are refreshed below - compared to the community history, the number of entries is not large, but very small.
This is probably related to the fact that this street is unknown.
However, after excluding those unrelated erroneous searches from the entries, Fang Pliance was able to filter out information that was useful to him from the remaining hundred or ten records: those were some travel notes and city guides, and there were both summoners on them.
The written records left behind also include photos and videos of tourists.
From these written records, photos and videos, we can know that Jackdaw Street is a street mainly focused on commerce and handicraft industry. There are many handicraft workshops on both sides of the street, and it is quite busy on weekdays.
In such a place, after the bone dragon swoops down, will this carriage alone be attacked?
Or is it that its original target was only this carriage?
Then the answer is ready to come out. Of course, Fang Yu is still not sure, because in his opinion, the Dragon Worship Cult does not seem to be able to perform such a delicate operation, and they still care about whether they will hurt passers-by? Duoli thirty years ago
Fen says it all.
He only wrote down this doubt, and then continued to walk forward until he reached the rickety, charred corpse.
Fang Yu checked it and immediately concluded that the other party was not his target - although he had no experience in autopsies, he could also see that the corpse was not that of an adult male. In terms of height and body shape, it looked more like that of an adult.
An old man.
The difference between the two is still very obvious.
He observed carefully for a moment, and noticed that there seemed to be a metallic luster on the corpse's hand. With a thought, he took it off, only to find that it was a seal ring. Fang Piao himself had no achievements in heraldry, but fortunately he still had it.
A female encyclopedia companion showed it to the elf lady - Tata had already absorbed a lot of knowledge about the current Aitalian nobles - and she got the answer as expected.
This is the official's seal. It seems that this old man should be the official's servant or steward, and his status should not be low, at least much higher than the dwarf servant in Grande, because ordinary people can't keep the owner.
's seal ring.
It seems that this person is more similar to the other party's confidant or close relative. Unfortunately, the corrosion destroyed most of the clues, and Fang Plover was unable to find any more useful records from his clothes or the remaining paper information.
After checking the area around the carriage and making sure that nothing was missing, Fang Plover turned around and walked towards the apartment. He only stayed by the carriage for a few minutes. According to his estimate, it would take at least a quarter of an hour for the official Van Rijk people to arrive at this place.
The time given to him is actually quite ample.
But what he was a little curious about was why Sophie and Qian hadn't arrived nearby yet? He looked back and saw neither of them - Siesta and Baggins were also hiding, looking at the cloth.
He was the only one on the ruined street.
Fang Yu turned this idea around and walked outside the apartment door - a big hole was opened on the second and third floors of the apartment, and nearly two-thirds of the building structure was missing, but the first floor was still well preserved. He habitually pushed
He entered through the door, but the door fell down and hit the ruins behind with a bang, sending a cloud of smoke and dust flying.
Fang Yu thought he was unlucky and couldn't help coughing twice. He fanned away the dust with his hands and entered the building. He remembered that Sophie told him that the official's residence was on the third floor of the apartment, and he looked up.
Most of the stairs connecting that place have been preserved, but they look a little shaky.
He thought to himself that this place wouldn't collapse like this, right?
As expected, he had only taken a few steps up the stairs when the stairs collapsed with a crash. Fortunately, Fang Plover remained vigilant and raised his hand and flew a claw towards the wall on one side - but he didn't expect that the claw had just grabbed the wall.
On the side wall, the seemingly solid wall actually fell backwards.
Amidst a rumbling sound, Fang Plov finally climbed up to the third floor from the other side of the outer wall in disgrace. He couldn't help but patted the dust on his body. He could only think that it was okay except for Miss Tata.
, and no other outsiders saw this scene.
After climbing up to the third floor, Fang Yu found that he was in a huge cave - and this seemed to have been a bedroom or a study. He could even see a big gray bed on one side and the same gravel.
The rubble bookshelf - but now most of it has disappeared, disappearing into the huge void behind him.
Fang Yu stood up and looked back. The original windows and walls here had long since disappeared, and the empty space outside was the direction of the street. Since he had seen various fighting situations in the community, he could almost immediately think of them.
Make up for everything that happened at that time.
The bone dragon fell from the sky and smashed the wall. In its first round of attack, the other half of the room completely collapsed. Then it flew across the street with a menacing force. The scene outside
The collapsed buildings on the side streets and the long claw marks left on the walls should have been left during this round of attacks.
Fang Plover walked to the edge of the broken ceiling and looked out, as if he saw the bone dragon turning back at the end of the street on the other side and flying back again. This time it started spitting, and the spit swept across the street - but because of the first
During the round of attacks, most of the pedestrians had already fled from the street or hid under the buildings on both sides, so the sweeping spit actually only hit the carriage this time.
And the old man who just escaped from the carriage.
This should generally be the case.
After sorting out these details, Fang Yu walked back from the outside and began to check the inside of the house. He took a cursory glance inside and outside the house and found that the bone dragon's breath had not affected the building, because apart from the traces of physical damage, there were no traces of physical damage in the room.
Any signs of burning or corrosion—
This means that the Bone Dragon did not perform a last-ditch attack on this apartment after the first round of attacks. Is it because it achieved its goal in the first round of attacks, so it does not need to carry out a second round of attacks? Fang Plover frowned.
He frowned and looked around again.
This possibility cannot be ruled out. If the opponent happened to be in the study at the moment when the bone dragon launched its attack, it would have been in serious danger. With such suspicion, Fang Yu checked other rooms behind him, and sure enough he did not find that.
The location of officials.
At the same time, there were no signs of attacks in other rooms.
But if it is said that the other party happened to be in this study, let alone the severed limbs and remains, there was not even a trace of blood in the study, and it did not look like someone had died. Or should we say that the other party happened to be in the study room at the time of the attack?
Buried under the debris along with the collapsed building?
Fang Yu stood on the third floor and glanced down. The thick building debris was piled at least one meter deep. But he had neither the ability nor the time to check whether the official's body was buried underneath, so he thought about it.
, we can only settle for the next best thing and see if there are any other clues in the room.
He looked at his pocket watch again and saw that almost half of the estimated time had passed, and the remaining time was not too much.
Fang Yu knew that he had to speed up, looked up and looked around, and immediately saw a huge bookshelf on one side - the bookshelf was covered with a thick layer of dust, but the books on it caught his attention. That was
There was a row of classics with dark title pages and spines. He walked over and touched the dust on the spines with his hands, and a line of bloody text was immediately revealed underneath.
It seemed as if his hand had just touched the words, when a low whisper came from the book.
Fang Yu was startled and quickly took a step back, only to realize that these books may have different origins. They were either evil objects or classics of the Dragon Worship Sect. Seeing this, he had basically determined the relationship between the official and the Dragon Worship Sect.
, and the other party put these things on the bookshelf openly, he should be sure that it is safe enough.
But he didn't expect that he would die at the hands of his own people in the end.
Is it to kill people and silence them? This reasoning is not unreasonable. After all, so far, Fang Yu has only seen the opponent possess such a method that can eliminate the starlight.
But once you fall into this mindset, you tend to overlook some more details. In fact, there is not only one Dragon Worship Cult in this world. It can be said that all worship of dragons can be called Dragon Worship Faith.
predecessor.
This doctrine is especially popular among lizards and today's snake-men, followed by kobolds and goblins, but there are also many kinds of dragons, and the goblins of Nervad also worship their patron, the master of Holy Bow Peak, Yunlong
Anlosser.
Before the identity of the green dragon Tolagoth was revealed, most of the human residents on Fenris Island were also admirers of Tolagoth.
Are they all cultists?
Obviously not.
In fact, the cult "Dragon Worship" identified by the Stargate Port official and the Kaolin-Ithurian royal family actually only refers to the worshipers of the dark dragon, and not others. And only among these worshipers, can Fang
Only plovers can find a similarity in common:
That is irrational fanaticism——
Of course, Fang Plover has heard various rumors related to this before - for example, the dark dragon will give its followers the ability to "eternal life" and promise various benefits, such as possessing
Strength, or gaining power.
But not to mention that the so-called 'eternal life' is still very debatable in his opinion. Even strength and power have long become history in the past. Now Nicol Bolas can only say that he is lingering, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback.
.
Even a hundred years ago, she actually only caused a storm in Corrin-Ithurion, and her impact on the entire Aitaria was almost negligible. The era of the dark dragon has long passed, and now
It’s no longer that period of history where their wings can cover the sky and the sun.
But this does not seem to prevent the followers of the Dark Dragon from continuing to feverishly believe that that period of history will repeat itself again, and the light of the third woe star will eventually shine on the earth.
They didn't seem to have thought about this. What benefits would the arrival of the third evil star bring to them?
When Atholin sank under the abyss, not only the residents above but also a large number of believers of the dark dragon died with it. The moment disaster strikes, the light of the evil star does not care whether you are its support or not.
Everyone will treat them equally and turn them into powder.
Therefore, Fang Plover really couldn't understand these people's idea of "seeking benevolence and receiving benevolence". He could only imagine that the ability to brainwash the dark dragon was really powerful. And as far as he knew, he was running for the resurrection of Nicol Bolas.
There are many "eternal ones" among the people.
And these people have already obtained the power of eternal life, why do they want to have an additional master above themselves for no reason? Fang Yu also doesn't know this.
But the blindness and fanaticism of the Dragon Worshipers can at least be seen from this.
They seem to be pursuing a certain goal irrationally, so in Fang Pultru's view, it is entirely possible for them to give up something called reason and logic.
Thinking of this, he looked at the bookshelf in front of him again - judging from the cult classics collected on the bookshelf, if this official from the Adventurers Association was not a senior 'fanatic believer', he was probably not too far away.
After Fang Yu withdrew from his original thinking pattern, he immediately noticed this little doubt - would a fanatical believer choose to sacrifice for his beliefs? He didn't know much about other religions, but he had a deep understanding of the Dragon Worshipers.
Yes, that's almost certain.
So for a fanatical believer to use the method of killing and silence, such a big move is needed?
There seems to be some problem here.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a step back, but he stepped on something. Fang Yu was stunned, and when he looked down, he realized that it was a notebook buried under the dust. When he walked over, he was completely stunned.
I didn't notice this thing, but now it seems like it is a diary.
Fang Yu was slightly startled, and couldn't help but feel happy, thinking that this could not be the diary recorded by the other party, right? He knew that many aborigines in Aitaria, especially nobles with high status, often have the habit of writing diaries and memos.
Even some private secrets will be recorded on it.
But with such a mood, he picked it up and took a look, but he couldn't help but be disappointed. The notebook did indeed seem to be the notes recorded by the other party, but it had nothing to do with any kind of diary. It was more like an archaeological record.
, Fang Yu brushed off the dust on the diary, and judged from the description of each word, that what should be recorded in it was some information about Idos.
Idos is the city that was reduced to ashes in the flames of the Dragon Witch.
It is located on the edge of the brown desert. It was once a very prosperous trading city. It was also the former capital of the Istania region - the former hometown of Mazak, and it was under the jurisdiction of the Idos Archon.
Of course everything lasted until the disaster happened.
Afterwards, the flames burned everything, and this tragic city never recovered after the disaster. Now there is only a piece of rubble in the wind and sand telling the past. When the last batch of refugees left, the former kingdom of Iraq
The Stania region has now become synonymous with a desert wilderness.
It is an archaeological holy place.
Many scholars who are willing to learn about that period of history a hundred years ago will often visit that place.
Fang Yu looked at the notes in his hand and wondered whether this official was secretly a history buff? But there was another possibility. After all, whether it was Idos or Doliphon, they were all related to Nico.
Bolas' past.
Could the other party's recording of this have something to do with some of the truth buried under that period of history?
With such a mood, he continued to scroll down, but the records at the back were even more messy. It not only recorded some information about Idos, but also recorded some families and some people, but the relationship between these families and people
The names seemed a bit unfamiliar to Fang Plover.
He originally thought that under Miss Sylvide's training, he had some understanding of the noble family of Corin-Ithurion, but when he saw the list, he was still at a loss.
It was only the last familiar name that jumped into his eyes that cheered him up:
The Rogers family.
There are not many records about this family in the notebook. There are only three names below:
Dantès-Rogersil.
Maryland-Loggers.
Chrissy Ellingland
Fang Plover was slightly startled when he saw these three names. He was familiar with the first two names. Dantès was the consul of Doliphon thirty years ago and the grandfather of Roquelen-Rogersl.
The blood inheritance rights of the Logosl family are given by this person's soul.
And he actually knew the other Maryland Rogelsl, who was Roquelen's father and the son of Dantès.
But as for the last name, which was obviously a woman's, he felt a little strange - why was there such a woman's name in the records of the Rogers family? Was it Maryland's wife? But that didn't seem to be the case in his memory.
He pointed to the name and said to Tata beside him: "Miss Tata, we seem to have heard this name somewhere?"
Tata nodded: "I am also somewhat familiar with it, but if I have seen it in that book, I will definitely remember it."
Both of them were a little confused.
However, Fang Yu saw again that Maryland and Chris's names were heavily circled in red. And when he looked at the entire list, there were only three people whose names were circled in red, except for these two people.
In addition, there is a person named Andela.
That man came from a family called Jadjiaka, and Fang Plover had never heard of his name and had no memory of him at all.
What do these three red circles mean?
Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little confused for a moment.
