"By the way," before the communication ended, Luo Hao remembered something and added: "I am level 23, leader."
"What did you say?" Fang Yu was stunned for a moment before he understood what the other party was saying. A look of surprise appeared on his face, "I remember you... before you left, so what happened?"
Luo Hao shook his head: "I don't know either. I want to ask you all. The log reminded me that I completed a world event and gave out experience. Then we destroyed the Rust Foundation's underground auction house and upgraded it by half a level."
Fang Yu suddenly thought of something, opened the log, and in the silver data flowing from his eyes, the record from two days ago clearly said, 'The world event ended, and 1,643,000 points of knowledge were distributed——'
Of course he had noticed this record earlier. This reminder actually arrived after he was teleported under the guidance of Miya - or earlier. The record contained detailed information about this world event, named:
The sea of light goes out——
"Is this the case for all of you?" Fang Yu raised his head and asked. He originally thought that this was a summary of Aiyin Block and his party. That earth-shattering deed was worthy of a 'world event'. But now it seems.
This world event started even earlier.
It was even related to the Dark Blessing Ritual on Fenris Island, so it has existed as a team mission since then. Only in this way can we explain why Luo Haoyuan can still share this world knowledge around Awochik.
Because he did travel with the Seven Seas Brigade for quite some time.
Luo Hao nodded. Not only him, but also Box and Parker had their levels improved on average. But he was the lowest level, so he had the biggest improvement, a full 3 levels.
Fang Yu knew that the average level of the Seven Seas Brigade generally jumped after the battle in the north. After that, everyone in the empire achieved a lot of growth. Before Luo Hao, Box, and the Papalars left the Central Province,
It's already level 20.
The box is currently level 26, Parker is level 25, and May is level 27.
Ms. Scholar has improved even more. She actually reached level 25 after obtaining two magic books, and she has now reached level 27 after the end of the world event.
As for other people, they have generally been upgraded. Sky Blue is at level 19 (almost 3 of them were picked up for free), Alyssa is at level 28, and even the aborigines in the team have also been upgraded. Baggins is at level 21, and Sylvain is at level 20.
, Siesta is level 28.
Among them, Baggins had the smallest improvement. This was probably related to the fact that the boatswain had experienced a level drop and was only improved by 1 level. However, he himself did not care much about it. In the face of everyone's comfort, Mr. Boatswain laughed and said that he had already seen it.
There are more winds and waves, and I don’t care about everything now.
Improving strength is certainly a good thing, but for a sailor, having no rank does not prevent him from steering: "The stormy sea of clouds belongs to young people." He said to Fang Plover and Sylvester.
As for the maid, she still had a poker face and said nothing about it.
Only Miss Catman, who was the last to join the Nanami Brigade, missed this carnival. She gained a little combat experience from the battle with the Imperial squadron, but it was still not enough to upgrade. However, as a non-staff member, she already possesses Nanami.
The highest level of the brigade except Fang Plover.
Level 29.
In addition, Luo Yu's whereabouts are unknown, and his specific situation is not yet known.
After the end of this world event, the average level within the Seven Seas Brigade has basically crossed the baseline, surpassed the stage of mid- to low-level adventure groups, and entered the ranks of elite teams. This means that they are not only materially prepared,
In terms of strength, he also has the conditions to go to the second world.
Although the extinguishing of the sea of light invalidated all three blessings on Fang Pliance, this incident finally made up for some of the shortcomings in his heart - the sea of light was actually extinguished, and it came so quickly.
Dark Blessing is okay, but the failure of the double combat experience is enough to disrupt many of his arrangements. It will definitely not work to continue to strengthen the rocket flying fist, and it can only be used as an auxiliary method in the future.
Because Rocket Flying Fist requires the use of many Nightingale-related talents, these require valuable combat experience to learn.
Fortunately, since he started learning Creation Technique, his energy has been focused on ancient alchemy, quick tactics and residual skills. He has put down a lot of self-attack skills related to Rocket Flying Fist, so there is nothing unaccustomed to him.
On Jita's side, Miss Scholar is still taking the time to grasp the changes brought about by the two magic books - apart from the growth of knowledge, knowledge, and power itself, she has not yet mastered many abilities related to the Book of Life.
The Book of Time can retrieve history or prophecies from fragments of the past and future, just as she summons her future self from the prophecies, although it is just like the image described in the girl's dream.
But for grimoires, the written words are the truth.
What's more, the prophecy has been confirmed again and again. Jita looked at the silver-haired Sea Witch through the thin layer of mist behind her glasses in the hazy eyes like stars——
'Be careful of the light of the stars——'
She let out a slight breath, and the white mist dispersed in the light of the bonfire and disappeared.
The forest in the distance melted into darkness. There was a flickering fire in the adventurer's camp, and figures intertwined. A ranger wearing a long cloak walked in the soft and cold mud, holding a torch, and several hounds howled low.
Then he turned and ran towards the forest.
A few wild animals flashed past the edge of the forest, and the sound of flapping wings of birds came from the forest.
On the open pages of the magic book in her hand, there are words that no one can understand. They are like the impressions carved on the rock with a wedge, but there is a certain pattern. There is a layer of fluorescence floating on the surface of the words, reflecting the
Looking at Miss Scholar's face.
She has told everyone about her experience after going to the Great Tomb, including how to obtain this magic book - she gently touched her fingers on the pages of the book, and her fingertips responded with an unreal touch - the magic book's
The pages of the book are formed by magic power, like an invisible force field.
Gentle yet tough.
Of course, skipping over the part about how to summon her future self, she insisted that it was a well-known female mage in history - but she just liked pranks and had nothing to do with herself - Jita's face
Feeling slightly hot.
She saw the future in the eyes of Kalleye. The empire fell in the sea of fire, the first world fell apart, the red moon rose from the sky - heralding the arrival of the third evil star, and the azure light rose from the darkness.
rise.
A door opened in the darkness, as if an endless abyss emerged from it. Countless twisted creatures jumped out from behind the door and fell into their world. The clouds seemed to be burning, and the vast earth was falling.
The whole world collapsed, and after that she saw a pair of golden eyes.
But Aitaria has not yet been destroyed, people have begun to migrate, and countless floating ships are piercing the sea of clouds, sailing toward the distance like the silver sails of the elves in history.
In front of the fleet, there are countless floating ships leading the way.
She tried to see the images of those floating ships clearly, but the picture began to distort. In the darkness, only the faint starlight led civilization forward.
Just like the stars promised.
The sorcerers of the Karlye family told her that that was why they chose her.
If the future must lead to a path of mad destruction, then the magicians must carefully choose the only possibility. Although other magician families have fallen into madness, the magicians of the Carlley family believe in the poisonous snake.
Eye judgment.
"Choosing a successor for the Grimoire has always been just a pretense," the warlock told her. "We are just waiting for the return of the owner of the Book of Serpents, just as the ancestor Guriel foretold to us."
"Now that the two magic books have come together, you must be the narrator of the future and the one who records history. You are that person's chosen one. He has chosen you silently. He is the writer of history.
He, you will also record all these words for him."
Miss Scholar was confused when she heard this.
The sorcerer added: "That one is Angina, the guardian of knowledge and secrets, the witness of history, the writer and recorder."
"The God of Knowledge, he chose me?"
The former shook his head: "I don't know either, but every magic book actually comes from knowledge and secrets. This is an undoubted fact. You have witnessed everything for him. There has never been a person with two opinions before.
The man of this grimoire."
"But you are not afraid of revenge?" Jita couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Would other magician families tolerate such betrayal?"
"What we choose is just a possibility," the former replied: "We will not stand with you. Next, we will also join the plans of other magician families. The seven magician families will always stand together.
, for that Emperor and His Majesty, as a horse-driver."
"We will not make any promises to you until everything is clear——"
"So this is just an investment," Miss Scholar's eyes flashed with understanding, "What you gave me is this magic book and the permission to borrow the Eye of Carleye once?"
"At the appropriate time, we can share some information with you." the former said.
"But you are not worried that the empire will discover some clues. How are you going to cover up a magic book that disappeared out of thin air?" Jita asked in return.
"Someone will cover it up for us."
"Is there anyone?"
"Either the magic book has signed a contract for the lady, or the person who will cover up the truth for us."
"Are you talking about Cuisi?" Ms. Scholar's eyes widened in disbelief and she looked at the other party innocently. "She is from the Grand Guild. Even if she doesn't say it herself, the alliance behind her will not let you go."
"wrong."
The young warlock smiled slightly and looked at her narrowly: "Miss Scholar, you don't quite understand how power works."
But she understands now.
Cui Xisi sent a flashing email on his personal communication terminal: "Hey, where are you?"
The other party seemed a little anxious, and before she could reply, he sent a second message: "...You must come to see me. Do you still remember the contract you signed with me? I must guard you, otherwise the contract will take effect!
"
Jita originally did not intend to pay attention to the other party because she was worried that the communication between the two worlds would reveal their location. But seeing the anxious tone of the other party, Miss Scholar still felt sympathy. The other party said that this matter was innocent.
She replied with a private message: "I'm no longer in the empire, so there's no need to contact me. It's impossible for you to travel so far to see me, and your club probably won't allow it."
"No..." Cui Xisi immediately replied: "I, I told them."
"You," Jita looked a little angry: "You promised to keep the secret, Miss Tracy!"
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do," Cui Xisi said, "But don't worry, the club has agreed."
Miss Scholar was stunned, "What did you agree to?"
What did you agree to?
"They agreed to let me join the Seven Seas Brigade."
"What did you say?" Jita was stunned again. "When did you agree to join the Seven Seas Brigade...?"
"They know the contract between me and you, and also know about the magic book," Cui Xisi said, "These things cannot be hidden in the first place. The magic book disappeared in public, and what they saw was not
It was just me, and then I disappeared, and they could figure out what happened just by asking."
"But after they ended my contract, they didn't plan to pursue anything. Instead, they allowed me to join the Seven Seas Brigade as an individual. This was the guild's decision."
"guild?"
"The Guild of the Sacraments."
"Then will you still be considered a member of the Sacrament Guild from now on?"
Cui Xisi had no intention of hiding it and nodded: "It's not bad, but on the surface I am no longer a member of the league, but a free draftee. I just don't terminate the contract with the club."
Jita understood immediately, because this was very similar to her and Luo Yu's identities. They had also terminated their apparent relationship with Tapolis early, but in fact they had not terminated their cooperation with the club.
It’s just that the contract is now in the hands of ‘Silver Dragon’ Yugudora, and the other party has never taken the initiative to mention it. It’s good that everyone knows it.
So this is actually the Blessed Sacrament Society releasing goodwill to them.
why?
"Actually, the reason is very simple," Cui Xisi said: "You may not understand it when you are in it, but after the battle with Ayin Block, everyone knows that you are the next Loofah-like brigade. Since we can't kill you, then naturally we will fight with you.
It’s better if you build a relationship.”
She added: "My identity is also an unexpected surprise for the guild. The Sacrament Guild has no shortage of enemies, but the more friends the better. Even if our interests may not be consistent in the future, with such a relationship, at least
It won’t break our faces.”
Jita gradually understood it, or in other words, it was easy for her to understand it given her background.
The Great Guild has never been a concrete concept. A huge organization is filled with various voices, and those who oppose it must have support. It is not surprising that the Sacrament Guild would lay a hidden clue in advance.
But she couldn't help but wonder, would those clubs that once again rejected the offer of an olive branch to their leader in Ayinbrock feel regret now?
Especially for BBK, Ms. Ming finally managed to bridge the gap between the Godslayer and Fang Plover, but all her efforts fell short when the decree arrived. No wonder the Construct Queen felt so angry.
.
I'm afraid that from then on, she would be embarrassed to see Fang Plover again.
Miss Scholar sighed slightly.
"I understand," she said to Cuisi: "But whether you can join the Seven Seas Brigade, I don't care. I have to tell the leader and let everyone make a decision. But before that, I still want to ask
, is this the opinion of the Congregation for the Blessed Sacrament, or is it your opinion?”
Jita paused: "Miss Cuisi?"
Trixis was startled. She had been tortured by that contract these days. One was the club's contract, and the other was the sword-like contract hanging above her head. She couldn't compromise on either side, so she had to seek the club's opinion.
She barely slept a good day before issuing her opinion, because essentially, her opportunity to go to the second world did not belong to her, just like all the electors who belonged to the Grand Guild.
The opportunity itself is actually the property of the guild.
She has no right to decide her own destiny.
But perhaps that's why the girl felt the value of free will for the first time. Those things she was proud of in the past now seemed to be just relying on the charity of others.
If one day she leaves all this, can she still reach this height, and can all this still belong to her? Or, can she really take advantage of such an opportunity to realize her true self?
In any case, this contract now puts such an opportunity in front of her. Although she still has a contract with the club, that contract does not actually bind anything, or it does not have any mandatory constraints.
After all, the Sacrament Guild also knew very well that it was impossible for the Seven Seas Brigade to accept a blatant spy.
The girl couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Joining the Seven Seas Brigade, this name has already become a legend, or will become a legend. The battle of Ayinbrok made this name famous all over the world, and everyone knows that it will one day grow to another level.
That legendary height that Loofah walked.
Even compared with what she originally had, all this was by no means a humiliation.
But the question now is, will the legendary Dragon Alchemist accept her? She was supposed to be the picky one, but now her status seems to have changed. This gap made her a little overwhelmed for a while.
Cui Xisi bit her lip and looked at Miss Scholar and nodded slightly.
After figuring out what happened to Miss Scholar, Fang Plover also nodded slightly.
Regarding that prophecy, it has become a little clearer now. Although I don't know whether it is about to happen or whether it is a destined future, it is almost certain that the disaster will come.
The empire has now started a war, and it is only in the near future that Aitaria will be involved in the sea of fire. He now understands that his original worries were just unnecessary. How could the world change because of his will?
After realizing that he was a little pretentious at first, Fang Pultru didn't feel embarrassed at all.
His thinking now is different from what it used to be. He realizes that there is only responsibility behind every choice he makes. Since he is ready to take responsibility for all choices, he naturally has the initial maturity as a group leader.
Having turned against the Empire was a given, so there was nothing wrong with gaining more allies, but before that he had to figure out whether the other party had ulterior motives. As for Trixis, he could observe it for a while.
Fortunately, Tracy is no longer a stranger to the Seven Seas Brigade.
But more important than this is to report to Kaolin-Ishulian that he is not without concern for that land. He still has many acquaintances, even his friends, and the division commander still living on that land.
.
Returning to business, Fang Plover swept away his previous embarrassment and became a little serious. He first contacted the Southern Alchemist Council and informed the group of dwarves and gnomes about his experiences and discoveries in the empire.
The empire has launched a war against the Great Council, and Corin-Ithurion will inevitably not be able to survive alone. However, the attitude of the kingdom makes him feel uneasy. In the foreseeable future, the royal family will inevitably conflict with the Southern Council again.
His teacher Ander was not at the Eldoven Spire at the moment, but Old Coppernose attached great importance to his opinion, which surprised Fang Pliance himself. After asking, he realized that this was what Ye Hua meant.
"Does Great Master Ye Hua know what happened to me in the empire?" Fang Yu asked.
The old dwarf muttered something: "Who knows what that guy thinks, but boy, your reputation in the Southern Warlock Association is very high. Everyone is already dissatisfied with the Artisan Association, and now they are even more dissatisfied."
Already."
Fang Plover couldn't laugh or cry.
"In short," Old Copper Nose became a little more serious, "Actually, we have also anticipated the empire's reaction. The kingdom is also preparing for war. You don't have to worry about that incompetent king. He is in Kaolin-Yishuli.
An has long since abandoned her heart."
"On the contrary, it is Her Royal Highness the Princess of Istania," the old dwarf said: "We are not very familiar with them, but I heard that she regards you as an ally. Little guy, the little girl from the Albert family is still with you.
Bar?"
Fang Yu didn't understand what the other party meant by asking such a question, but he still nodded silently.
He will naturally inform Istania that if there is a conflict between the empire and Kaolin-Ithurion, or the Battle of Bain that lasted thirteen years ago starts again, Istania will definitely
Bear the brunt.
He successively contacted the Stargate Port and some of his acquaintances who were still in Kaolin-Ithurian.
Among them, Ming looked a little stunned when he received his notice, "Why are you still looking for me, little guy?"
The Construct Queen couldn't help but ask after being stunned for a moment.
"Sister Ming, you have taught me so much," Fang Yu asked, "Now that I have settled down, of course I have to inform you."
Ming was stunned for a moment, then looked away without any trace, she blinked lightly: "Is that so...I know, but you should try to contact me as little as possible in the future, I don't want the guild to see any clues.
"
"You are safe now, that's good, I understand," the woman deliberately said in a very cold tone: "I will tell you something about the alliance's trends when I have the opportunity."
But Fang Yu could tell that the Constructed Queen seemed a little happy.
On the contrary, Stargate Port praised him very much.
However, it was Bai Jia who was responsible for praising him, and he didn't know whether the compliment represented the military's intention or was a narrow-minded ridicule.
His deeds in the empire seem to be nothing worth mentioning except for turning Ayin Block upside down. In the eyes of others, these deeds are a legend, but from the perspective of Stargate Port, they are just looking for someone.
trouble.
"That's not necessarily the case," Bai Jia said: "No one welcomes the war. The Empire insists on going its own way. The first division also bears an unshirkable responsibility. Now the Super Competitive League is actually in name only. Didn't you find that there are fewer leagues in the second world?
Is it a lot?”
Fang Yu blinked. Since entering this world, he really hasn't paid much attention to the affairs of the second world.
After all, it is different from the other side of the Star Gate. News from the second world rarely reaches the first world. There are not as many real-time broadcasts of events here as on Earth.
"The return of a large number of elite personnel from the second world is one aspect," Bai Jia continued: "But the other aspect is that the alliance's binding force is not as strong as before. The rules behind the Star Gate have undergone profound changes. Now each division is only
Just trying to maintain a semblance of peace."
Fang Plover was speechless.
"Okay," Bai Jia said again: "Although you are wanted by the empire now, our binding force on the first division is not very strong. We can only protest as much as possible and try our best not to expand our influence. As long as you leave the empire
, it should be safe——"
She frowned as she spoke.
Fang Yu looked at Miya beside him - she had naturally heard her sister's voice, but the sea witch turned her head willfully and pretended not to hear. Fang Yu looked at Bai Jia and said:
It's hard to bring this up.
After all, communication between the two worlds is not completely safe, and Miya's identity is much more sensitive than his.
Seeing Bai Jia's look, he couldn't help but ask: "Sister Bai Jia, are you causing a lot of trouble this time?"
Bai Jia shook his head: "It has nothing to do with you, but it can't be said that it has nothing to do with it - what you told us is actually nothing more than sensing the empire's intentions and wanting us to prepare early. But in fact, the actions of the empire people are nothing
It’s a secret, but here in the kingdom…”
"What happened to Corin-Ithurion?"
"It's nothing," Bai Jia replied: "You also know the situation in the kingdom. His Majesty the King is at odds with the Southern Territory, and the people of Guta have always been unruly. After Istania is restored, it should be a support to the kingdom...
"
She glanced at Fang Yu: "But because of someone, the princess of the Kingdom of Sand does not seem to be willing to surrender to the kingdom at the moment, let alone the Fenrisians. They did not open a blood ship to fight against the kingdom.
Thank God.”
"...and the Elven Queen," she added: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has returned to Kaolin-Ithurion, but she is not good at all. She looks so angry that she has not openly talked to the royal family.
break."
"And the North..."
"That's enough," Fang Plover quickly interrupted: "I probably understand."
"What did you understand?" Bai Jia looked at him narrowly.
Fang Yu shook his head. He did not expect that the kingdom would become what it is today, and that he had a share of credit for it. But that was not his fault. It was just that he solved some incidents by mistake and became the enemy of the royal family.
.
"Let me think about it." He thought for a moment and replied.
"Think about it?" Bai Jia's eyes flashed with surprise, "I thought you were going to avoid it again."
But running away won't solve the problem.
In fact, the meaning behind Bai Jia's words is already obvious. If Kaulin-Ithulian cannot end such a multi-headed sea monster-like political structure, it will never be able to effectively integrate to face the coming crisis.
And among them, he became that crucial node. The Seven Seas Brigade did not know when it became a decisive force affecting the domestic political power of Kaolin-Ishulian, even enough to change the balance of forces between the parties.
Although the third division has never advocated that its selectees go too deep into the internal affairs of the kingdom.
But the matter has come to this, and it will not help to bury one's head and act like an ostrich. What's more, as Fang Plover said, none of this was caused by him.
In the final analysis, from the south to the north, different political forces have their own demands. The reason why they are associated with him for various reasons is simply because the young king's actions were too cynical.
What he had to do was actually very simple. He didn't even need to step forward himself. He just had to introduce the eldest princess of Estania to Princess Brianne, and the angry elf princess would have reason to initiate an issue.
Let the dwarves, gnomes and elves re-engage in the politics of the kingdom to discuss whether the royal family of Kaulin is still suitable as the leader of the alliance.
In fact, when she declared war on the Oshurs in the empire, she was tantamount to challenging the authority of the Kaulin royal family.
But do you really want to do that?
If the current King is overthrown, who will lead the Kaolin Kingdom?
That would definitely not be him, and certainly not Princess Brianne. That princess is actually the same person as him and does not like these complicated government affairs.
Regardless of whether they are elves, dwarves or dwarfs, they are actually not suitable to lead Corin-Ithurion. After all, this huge alliance has the largest population of humans, and the new king must still be selected among humans.
So who will be the candidate? Who can stand up and stabilize people's hearts?
Fang Yu pondered slightly and couldn't help but recall a meeting he had with the prince in the north.
He did not expect that that meeting was actually just a very ordinary meeting. In the final analysis, His Highness the Prince wanted to see the young man next to his daughter on behalf of Sir Ma Wei.
But that simple meeting could have such a far-reaching impact on the future.
He couldn't help but look at the ship officer on the side and asked: "Silweid, Sir Mawei has not actually supported the so-called rebel party, has he?"
Sylvide listened to the whole conversation and naturally understood what he was thinking and nodded, "Actually, His Royal Highness himself has no ambitions. It's just that His Majesty the King and the Prime Minister are too suspicious."
Fang Yu was silent for a moment and picked up the communication crystal.
On the other side of the communication crystal, Princess Rupert was somewhat surprised to see the personal crystal on the table beside her light up. She quickly motioned to the maid to take it into her hands and polish it: "Mr. Ed, are you guys?
?”
"Your Highness the Princess, we haven't seen you for a long time. We have left the empire and are safe for the time being. How is Istania lately?"
"Fortunately," Princess Rupert raised her eyebrows slightly, "but the envoys from the Corinthians still come here every once in a while to test their words and want to ask about your whereabouts. I don't even bother to see them, so I asked Elna to stop them.
Got off."
Fang Yu paused for a moment: "Your Royal Highness, Princess Brianne, the daughter of the elf king Alvin Quinn and one of the three elf heroes in the Battle of Byrne, has returned to the kingdom. Are you willing to see her?"
A bright light flashed in the eldest princess's eyes: "Ed, what do you mean?"
"I saw some things in the empire. Although I come from the other side of the Star Gate, I still have many things that I care about in this land just like the eldest princess," Fang Plover said. "I don't want to see the things that I am familiar with."
Many people were swept up in the flames and were destroyed. I hope something can be done."
Princess Rupert nodded slightly.
"His Majesty the King is no longer worthy of his position," she said softly. "The Kaolin royal family still has many outstanding people, elves, dwarves, dwarfs, Kaolin, Yithians and us desert people left behind in the past dynasties.
Covenant, the person who can lead this kingdom forward must be the most wise and wise person."
"Ed," she said, "Princess Brianne is the hero of the Battle of Byrne. I believe she has the ability to judge on our behalf what kind of leader Kaolin really needs."
Fang Yu put down the crystal in his hand.
Of course, the changes that Corin-Ishulian has today did not happen overnight, but it was actually foreshadowed by the Dragon Witch's incident thirteen years ago, or even a century ago, and it is only now that it has taken root.
But after all that is over, does it mean that he and Sylvester have ended their exile, Sir Mawei can restore his old glory, and his ship officer lady can return to her hometown with her former identity?
He looked at Sylvester.
The noble daughter was in a rare state of trance.
So apart from this, Fang Yu thought, there is only one last puzzle left. He really wants to know what happened to Miya after the battle on Covenant Mountain, and how did she appear at that time?
In Ayinbrok.
Although he did feel the shock of the Twins Association at the time, it was by no means the power of that innate talent. He had never heard that the Twins Association could bring a person back from another world. It was a power that transcended the mortal world.
.
All the secrets can only lie with Hailin Crystal, after all, it has done the same thing once before.
But the sea of light also extinguished at that moment.
