Chapter402 The inheritance under the Shuoyin Mountains
"You all go out."
After hesitating for a moment, the mage from Black Rose left the laboratory to make room for the two of them.
"Lester...brother..."
"Xina, you should be able to see that my brother has never aged. Everyone speculates that I will not grow old, but they don't know that I, who controls the runes of the world, can still survive.
Now my brother tells you, if one day I am no longer here, it must be that I am lost outside and trying to find the direction of home, and Jade Collar is my home. This is a secret that belongs to me alone. Now I will keep this
I have shared the secret with you, you must remember it well, be obedient at home, keep your emerald collar, and wait for my return."
"Is this, is this true?"
"Of course it's true, Hina. If that day really comes, you will wear a mask like Ji Si and become the lord of the Emerald Territory to control everything. Ji Si and the others are just mortals and will grow old in time, but you
No, under the influence of the gods of the astral world, your and Misha's lives... are approaching eternity.
You still don't understand why I have to let Christol remove the portrait on the gold coin. This is my reason. Without heirs to pass on, I must make the mask a symbol of the authority of the Emerald Lord, so that everyone can
Forget my face, remember the appearance of that mask, no matter who wears that mask, must become the master of the Emerald Territory."
"So that's it...you have been prepared for this for a long time...but I don't have the confidence to imitate you."
"Jis knows me best. She is your senior in the field of imitating me. You can ask her for advice."
"Um……"
Smiling tenderly at Xina, who looked complicated, Lester rubbed the woman's pink cheeks and whispered.
"Remember, if you want to completely control the Emerald Territory, you must obtain the allegiance of the Night Blade and the Black Iron Guards. You must firmly hold the military power in your hands.
Margaret and Alice will fully support you. Maurice, I keep the token and put it in the basement of my home. After unlocking the magic seal, there is a secret ring in the box that is the same as this ring.
Red ring, that ring was made of orichalcum and some special materials. Through the rune enchantment I mastered, the ring has become a unique magical equipment, which has the function of absorbing blood and releasing a shield. Of course, the ring
The main function is to prove identity and gain power.”
Clicking the dark seal on his hand, Lester continued.
"After you get the ring, go directly to Morris. Morris will recognize you as the new master, and the Night Blade will also be loyal to you. Once you master the Night Blade, the dark side of the Emerald Territory will be revealed.
If you take control, you will also gain an unimaginable intelligence network, and your rule in the Emerald Territory will never be shaken again."
"I... understand... I will go find Uncle Morris."
Lester shook his head and emphasized deliberately.
"The moment you put on the ring, Morris is no longer your Uncle Morris. Sheena, you have to remember that you are his master. You must always make your identity clear. There can still be a relationship between you and Morris.
There are feelings, but these feelings must be erased at any time without any psychological burden. If he has second thoughts about you, kill him without hesitation!
Of course, this possibility is almost impossible.
Morris is my most satisfied and assured subordinate. Even so, I do not completely trust him. Sheena, human nature is never worthy of complete trust and cannot withstand any test. Don't mix personal feelings into it, otherwise
You will taste betrayal and failure, the price of which is difficult for both you and me to bear. What we have to do is not to completely trust our subordinates, but to strive to do what we can and do our best within the scope of trust.
Avoid being betrayed by subordinates.”
"Okay, I understand...I will control Maurice."
Seeing that Hina listened to what he said, Lester breathed a sigh of relief. He believed that his girl could do these things well, but after all, this was the first time for Hina to come into contact with these cold realities that were completely stripped of emotions.
Whether you agree with your own point of view depends entirely on your personality.
Fortunately, Xina did not disappoint him.
"After mastering the Emerald Territory, you have to understand who our enemies are, the [Star Spirits] who enslaved your mother on Mount Targon and want to control you and your sister, the devils in the other world [Badland], the fallen
The Ascended [Darkborn], the [Void] hiding in the dark side of the world who longs to destroy the world, and the [Overlord] who is conquering the underworld are all enemies you need to be wary of.
Black Rose is just a partner of all of us, not an ally that can be completely trusted...including Rose. Regarding this important information, I have placed it in the most secret and safe place. When you take power, you can go to Maurice. He will
Take you to understand all this,
Understand who your enemy is, and then work hard to develop and manage the land of Emerald Territory. The so-called development does not mean growing more food, building more buildings, or acquiring more land. These have no meaning to us.
, just let Noxus expand and let the Immortal Fortress be at the forefront. We just need to follow behind to hide our strength and secretly develop ourselves.
Xina, what we need is absolute power, power enough to kill gods. Magic, runes, and advanced technology are all things that the Emerald Territory needs to master.
The Emerald Territory can be powerful, but it can never show its true power. The stars monitor this land. Any force that is too powerful will cause disaster. Even if it conquers the entire continent of Valoran, it cannot withstand the attacks from the stars.
Remember this, hide yourself well, and let the Emerald Territory become a force respected by all countries, but never let the Emerald Territory really enter the sight of the gods. There are two places on this continent that can block the perception of the stars.
At the ruins of Atlan under the Gorel Mountains and the fortress altar under the Shining Silver Mountains,
In these two places, you can keep the secret of the true power of the Emerald Territory and develop it secretly. Never expose these two places. When we have the ability to kill gods, we may be able to reach the star realm and see your mother again...
…”
Lester said a lot of things, and Xina listened carefully, but unknowingly her eyes closed again.
"There are only so many things I can explain, you have to remember it carefully..."
When Ji Si and the soldiers led more than a hundred bewildered gladiators to the underground fortress, it seemed as if nothing had changed, and the atmosphere in the laboratory remained as oppressive as ever.
The Black Rose Mage, who had left in a hurry, slipped back quietly and continued the work at hand with a solemn expression, for fear of offending the lord.
They had seen the most cruel side of the lord, and his proficiency in extracting souls was even more terrifying than the most evil black mage.
Xina wiped her eyes vigorously and looked at Lester again, but Lester had already regained his cold expression. He stopped what he was doing and pulled out a piece of dim Soulstone crystal on the ice coffin. The man came The bound gladiator was kneeling on the ground in front of him, laying his hands on the man's head.
"Lord Leicester, I have won nine victories, and I am only one away from gaining freedom and glory. Please give me a chance..."
"The soul pyroxene needs more souls to maintain Misha's life. If I give you a chance, who will give me a chance?"
