Jane and Zina looked in disbelief, but Dulan thought of a possibility.
"Maybe... the deep sea crown in the auctioneer's hand is already a fake!" He said slowly.
"Your Highness Lancelot, when did you hand over the Deep Sea Crown to Count Lyle?" Duran asked.
Jane was silent for a while and then said: "Just the night before the auction started, I handed over the Deep Sea Crown to Count Lyle. The Count promised that I would sell it for a good price."
Dulan looked at Jane slightly strangely. As the daughter of Grand Duke Jinque, she shouldn't be short of money, right? Why would she want to sell the Deep Sea Crown?
"Is this what her father meant?" Dulan suddenly remembered something. It seemed that during this period, the conflict between the Riverlands and the northern nobles had indeed become more and more intense. Although Grand Duke Jinque was well-known,
, the Riverlands are also extremely wealthy, but the two nobles on the other side of the Thorn River are not ordinary people and are not that easy to deal with.
Once the war starts, even if it is just a stalemate, it will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, and all of this is based on financial resources.
The Deep Sea Crown is extremely valuable. If it is auctioned in an economically developed place like the South, it can be exchanged for more than 3,000 Purple Dragon Coins. This wealth will greatly ease the pressure that Grand Duke Jinque faces alone from the two powerful nobles of the empire.
In an instant, Dulan thought about all this clearly. It seems that the reason why Jane and Zina came to the south this time without any guards was because they wanted to travel secretly. The Grand Duke obviously didn't want other people to know that they were going south.
People have secretly left the Riverlands.
"The crown is in the Great Pudding City, there is no doubt about it." Duran thought for a while and said: "It seems that Count Lyle is greedy enough. He not only wants to please the Grand Duke of Golden Bird, a big man with a lot of troops, but also
I also want to trick the seller, in case the buyer discovers that the Deep Sea Crown may be a fake after the auction is over, but he is frightened by the power of the Golden Bird. He will definitely be able to hold a grudge and dare not speak out. As for the real Deep Sea Crown, I'm afraid
He is still at the residence of Count Lyle."
As soon as they heard Dulan's words, the expressions of the two women suddenly changed. Zina said nothing, and looked at each other with Jane. The two women moved quickly, raised their whips, and immediately rushed towards the burning big pudding city.
The horses under the two women's legs ran away in a flash.
Dulan stood there, and Zina's laughter came from a distance: "Thank you very much for your analysis, Mr. Dulan! I heard from Jane that you don't seem to know how to ride a horse. It seems that you have tried your best to think of it."
I’m afraid the Deep Sea Crown we obtained will not be in your hands. Let’s take the first step!”
In the blink of an eye, the two women disappeared from Dulan's eyes.
The two water elves looked at each other, then looked at Ned, then fell silent.
But the little fat man was anxious: "Du Lan! Are you just going to watch these two women go find the Deep Sea Crown before you?"
Dulan smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, let them go first."
"Ned, you have to know that whoever sets off first may not necessarily arrive first."
While saying this, Duran took out a scroll from the little devil's tail. This scroll was filled with a powerful aura. Once he took it out, the three elves who were very sensitive to magic showed a shocked look.
The little fat man threw himself at Dulan's hand and said in surprise: "What kind of scroll is this? The aura on it... is so powerful! It smells like the power of order. Wait, there is also chaos magic in it. What is this?
What the hell?"
Duran motioned for Ned to move aside, and then slowly tore open the scroll.
Under the control of his thoughts, all the power contained in the scroll was poured into his body.
The flame on his chest suddenly began to erupt, and the two fire energy pools boiled at the same time! The powerful force tore at Duran's body, but his will was still clear. An inexplicable breath spread out from his body, and his heart was pounding.
Jumping straight, the speed suddenly increased by countless times!
Pyro Energy Pool Expansion Scroll!
This treasure is what Duran had previously threatened Mrs. Ollie to obtain at the auction. It is said that it can increase the capacity of the fire energy pool in the body of a master in the golden realm!
Although such things are not considered rare treasures, they can still be called extremely precious.
Raging power flowed through Duran's body, and he felt a sense of relief. A steady stream of power was transmitted from the two fire energy pools on his left and right chest to his limbs. And more power stayed in the energy pools.
, Dulan only felt that there was a strong force constantly pushing against the wall of the energy pool. This feeling was very strange, sometimes painful, sometimes refreshing, as if the wall of his energy pool would shatter in the next second!
Fortunately, after just one minute, the expansion of the energy pool was completed. All the energy disappeared in an instant.
Originally, Duran had two fire energy pools, which was already rare in the world. His fire energy was at least twice as much as that of ordinary people!
Now, after the expansion, the fire energy pool formed by Fengshen Wenyao has been expanded from 15 points to 20 points, a full one-third increase; the energy pool formed by the Flame King has been increased from the original 30 points to 42 points.
The improvement was even more than one-third!
Today, although Duran is only in the gold realm, he has 62 points of fire energy, which makes him much richer than the average gold master.
"Okay, let's see in Big Pudding City who holds the Deep Sea Crown!"
Duran picked up Ned and instantly opened the Wind God Pattern Yao!
The next second, fire energy burst out from his chest, and he used this energy crazily regardless of the cost!
"Hoo ho ho!"
Dulan's figure was as fast as a gust of wind, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
…
About twenty miles away from the Big Pudding City, the two women galloped on horseback, slashing all the Orser pathogens they encountered along the way.
"Don't worry, the Crown of the Deep will definitely be recovered." Xina cut the Orser pathogen that tried to interfere with them in half with a sword, and turned back and said to Jane who was full of worry.
Jane smiled reluctantly and said nothing.
The two continued to move forward, and there were scattered corpses scattered on the path. Panic was bound to be raging near the Big Pudding City tonight.
However, at this moment, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew from behind them.
Before the two women had time to react, the gust of wind had already passed them by and flew far away in the direction of Big Pudding City.
"Huh? What is this?" Both of them were a little shocked.
Seeing that the violent wind was about to disappear from their sight, Zina suddenly exclaimed loudly: "Damn it, it's that little fat man!"
It turned out that Xina's sharp eyes saw that the shining flame exposed in the strong wind was none other than Ned, who had embarrassed Xina before.
The two women looked at each other, covered their mouths in unison and said:
