The earl looked around at everyone, especially the traditional allies of the Xilin-Spika family, and saw that although everyone was silent, the expressions on their faces revealed what they were thinking - the Rose Workshop is of great importance to the Southern Alliance.
Most people are reluctant to hand it over to an outsider - especially when the other person is a 'Chosen One' who cannot be trusted.
However, Count Silin-Spica had already expected this in his heart, and when he thought about it, he felt a little more certain. He looked at the young man again, and the latter nodded gently to him.
So the count turned around and patted everyone's hands gently, attracting people's eyes to look in this direction. Then he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the Rose Workshop has been handed over to me, and it is Xilin-
The result of the joint efforts of ten generations of the Spica family, naturally there is also the hard work of the Southern Alliance, and I know this better than any of you."
He paused for a moment, as if to let his words settle in the hearts of everyone: "However, my choice of Luo Lin as the next generation successor of Rose Workshop is definitely not without purpose. I invite you here today to reveal a secret to you.
"
People couldn't help but be startled when they heard this.
But seeing the count turn around, at his signal, the young man stepped forward, took out something and put it in the count's hand.
The hall was a little quiet for a while. In the eyes of everyone, it was a dark, edged regular octahedron, a bit like an Annihilator qv700 that had been reduced in size by many sizes. It was so compact that it could be held in one hand.
But it is obviously much more sophisticated than the Annihilator, and the craftsmanship on it is not a product of this era. Only the craftsmanship of the Numerin elves an era ago can reach such a level that is close to art.
And that is undoubtedly a flexible construct.
But the vast majority of people in the hall had never seen it.
"This is..." Only Fang Plover was shocked.
Because he had only seen this thing not long ago. In the Hall of Thousand Doors, it was one of the two types of fighting fairies - the jet black star. However, after the illusion disappeared, neither type of fighting fairy was preserved.
, everything at that time was just like in a dream.
Later, the design drawing of the battle goblin that Arquette reappeared was somewhat similar to the former, which made him realize that the battle goblin in the fantasy world might have really existed. He just never dreamed that he would see dark stars in this place.
ontology.
Only those who have fought against this kind of clockwork fairy will understand its power. If the silver battle fairy he controlled in the illusion is technically traceable, then this kind of black battle fairy
The technical concept can almost be said to be an era ahead of contemporary alchemy.
He almost subconsciously wanted to take two steps forward to see with his own eyes the structure of this thing.
But fortunately, the other person's following words brought him back to reality.
The Earl looked at the dark structure in his hand and said with emotion: "My father and I discovered this thing in the ruins of Numelin thirty years ago, but so far, I haven't figured out what Numei is."
Lin Elf’s philosophy and ideas in designing it.”
"Don't even talk about ideas," the count said, holding up the dark star: "Even manipulating it is very difficult."
Sure enough, he closed his eyes and gently raised his left hand wearing a metal glove. But the dark construct only floated slightly on his hand for half an inch, and then quickly fell down.
This scene shocked everyone in the hall.
Count Silin Spica is the number one elf user in the Southern Alliance. Although elf users rarely control elf constructs other than humanoid forms, this does not mean that they cannot. In fact, their powerful computing power allows most elf users to
You can also operate other flexible structures with ease.
But this small construct turned out to be so difficult for the opponent to control.
People couldn't help but whisper:
"...This, this must be a relic from the elves of Numelin."
"Yes, only Numerin elves with magical abilities can control such a flexible structure, right?"
"It's a pity that we humans are not born with the adaptability of ether, so we can only rely on core crystals for conversion."
These alchemists were all in awe of the technological crystallization of the Numelin era, but they were also a little curious as to what secret the other party wanted to announce? If we just talk about this construct, it certainly cannot be called a 'secret'
level.
Not many relics from the Numelin era are unearthed every year, but a lot have been accumulated.
Even if this one is more exquisite, it is nothing more than an 'antique'.
But at this moment, the earl whispered to the young man beside him: "Luo Lin, come here."
The young man stepped forward, took the pitch-black construct, raised the metal glove on his right hand, and placed it in his palm.
The count turned around at this time and spoke loudly: "You have lived in this southern land for generations. You should know more about the history and legends of this land than I do. You should remember that we have a
The well-known legend about the Dragon Seal——"
"Seal of the Dragon?"
Several low shouts came from the hall.
Fang Plover was a little confused about this unfamiliar term. But at this time, the other party spoke again: "It is said that the magical abilities of the elves in Numerin in the past came from the teachings of the dragon, so they called it the dragon.
Imprint."
"And regarding this, there is an ancient prophecy in the South, which has been circulated among us alchemists for centuries," he suddenly chanted softly: "The lost secret is waiting for its owner. When disaster strikes,
The chosen one from the stars is coming soon, chosen by the spire, and the dragon's seal will return to the world——"
There was a deep sound in the hall.
Almost everyone was chanting this passage repeatedly.
As for this prophecy, it has been circulated among the alchemists of Eldorfin for unknown generations. Even Falaise, an alchemist from the Craftsmen’s Association among the crowd, has heard about it:
As for the prophesied spire, some people think it is the Tower of Eldorfin, but others think it is the Four Seasons in Oshur, Hill of Giant Trees, Lotao and Corin-Ithurion.
tower.
The former believes that the Eldorfin Spire existed before the birth of Corin-Ithurion. As a legacy of the Númerin elves, it makes perfect sense that the spire in the prophecy would be used to refer to it. But supporters of the latter also have a stand.
A valid reason, after all, the guardian of Xia Jin Tower is himself a giant dragon.
To say that the most famous three-headed dragon in Corrin-Ithurion over the centuries was actually the master of Nicol Bolas, Toragothos and Nervad.
Now Nicol Bolas has long become history, and Toragothos has just died in the desert. Of the three giant dragons, the only one left now is the Lord of the Cloud Dragon. At this moment, people can't even help but subconsciously think,
Not long ago, the master of Nervad just left Holy Bow Peak——
Is there any coincidence here?
The ruler of Holy Gong Peak has really selected a suitable successor as rumored?
But Count Silin Spica did not mention this and only replied: "Now the predicted disaster has come to Fenris Island, and news comes from the north that the Dragon Witch of the past seems to have been resurrected and is ready to take action.
…”
"Now the prophecy has appeared, and you all know that this prophecy was left by the ancient Numerin elves, and is related to the mark of the dragon and its magical legacy. So at the moment the disaster happened, I already had a
Speculation - is the second half of the prophecy also coming to us? I even heard that the lizards are looking for the beloved of the stars in this world, which may be used as a support for this speculation."
"And until I met Rollin."
He looked at the young man.
The young man only raised his hand slightly, and amid a buzzing sound - and no actuating device could be seen on the dark clockwork fairy in his hand, it automatically levitated. Under his guidance, the dark clockwork fairy
The star is slowly flying from one side to the other.
And it was that moment.
Fang Plover saw a black light rising from the opponent's palm.
Suddenly, he felt his heart beat heavily, and he felt dizzy. He almost took a step forward and knelt on the ground, but he quickly reached out and pressed his chest to calm himself down before he stabilized his body. But his face was pale and dripping with cold sweat.
After a moment, two warm forces, one after the other, protected his inner world. "Mr. Knight, steady your mind." Miss Tata's calm voice came from the bottom of his heart. Although the other force was silent, it was
Silently guarding his spiritual defense line.
Fang Yu immediately understood where this second power came from. He dived into his conscious world and saw the half-dragon girl still sleeping peacefully, motionless. "Thank you, little guy."
Fang Yu couldn't help but whispered in his heart.
That power immediately became kind to him.
He then opened his eyes and raised his head, only to see that no one else in the hall seemed to feel anything unusual, they just stared at this scene and held the spirit legacy!"
"Mark of the Dragon!"
Such sounds were happening all around.
Luo Lin glanced at everyone before taking back the dark stars.
The earl nodded to him with satisfaction, then turned around and said to everyone: "You have also seen that Luo Lin was born to be able to control the magic weapon of the Numerin elves. This seems to be in fulfillment of the prophecy. This
It is the ability of the Dragon's Mark."
He paused and then said: "This ancient prophecy has been circulated in our southern border for several generations, and today we are fortunate enough to witness it becoming a reality. At this moment, the alliance is in turmoil - this may be the key to knowledge.
The guidance given to us by the inheritance and guardian Lord Anjina is in the dark."
"That's why I finally made the decision to make Luo Lin the next successor of Rose Workshop. Of course, he still needs training, so he also needs your support."
There was silence in the hall.
Even Ander Uriel was somewhat repelled for a moment. "It's really not your fault that I don't work hard. I have tried my best, little guy, and the little girl from the Mawei family," he shook his head. His stupid student
Although he also has some talents, compared with the characters in this prophecy, there is no slight difference.
As a person from the South, he knew how deeply that prophecy was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the South. The irony was that he joked about it with his old friend in the afternoon, but he didn't expect to shoot himself in the foot.
"It seems that the rumors about the Hall of Thousand Doors are true." Falaise said to him meaningfully.
Ender couldn't help but shake his head.
…
In the corner of the hall, 'Ms. Papamo' watched this scene from a distance, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This guy is too powerful. What kind of hero is he? He killed Toragots again, and what is he now?"
The man of prophecy.”
He shook his head: "I think Captain has little hope this time."
The Papalar looked at the others: "How about we think of another way? Is the Fairy Heart necessary?"
Everyone was silent.
Tianlan, Jita and Luo Yu all looked worried, while Ai Xiaoxiao looked nervous.
Only Tang Xin and Sylvide were looking in that direction, their eyes flashing with thought. But at this moment, Fang Yu suddenly said: "Miss Sylvide, there is something wrong with that person."
Sylvester was slightly startled, then turned to look at him: "What?"
"I can't tell clearly," Fang Plover shook his head weakly, recalling the previous scene, and then replied: "I felt a similar aura of power from him in Fenris underground before. I don't know about Noumei."
What will the dragon mark left by the forest elf be like, but it is definitely not that kind of power——"
"A similar aura of power beneath Fenris?"
"I have only experienced similar power in Nicol Bolas, Toragothos, and the lizard god."
"Dark Ether." Sylvide's eyes flashed slightly, and she immediately reacted: "You are saying that he may have an affair with the Dragon Worship Cult, which means-"
Fang Plover nodded: "Toragotos may not be dead."
"Ah, then, isn't he lying? We must expose him!" Ai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but exclaimed.
"But the problem is," Tang Xin turned around at this time: "How to expose it?"
"Isn't this easy?" Ai Xiaoxiao replied matter-of-factly: "Didn't he use dark power? As long as my cousin stands up and exposes him, it will be fine."
"Little princess, your thoughts are so simple," Tang Xin shook her head gently: "I guess it's not that easy. Apart from this pigeon, who else could sense the dark power before? Ai Xiaoxiao and I can forget it.
,what about you?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"I don't know much about the power system in your world, but it is obvious that the other party dares to display such power in public, which means that he must have something to rely on," Tang Xin calmly analyzed: "Not only can you not prove this
At the same time, you can't prove that he is not the person in the prophecy."
Everyone couldn't help but be silent. They couldn't prove that it was a dark force, and they couldn't prove that it was not the ability of the Dragon's Mark. Besides the Dragon's Mark, what other power could reproduce the alchemy of the Numelin elves?
In fact, it's not impossible.
Both Sylvide and Fang Plover were thinking of the same place at this moment.
"Non-attribute crystal."
It can be said that the Yishi Crystal is also a legacy of the elves. Coincidentally, it is also an alchemical technology that mortals can master.
Even the mortals it refers to can even be those who have no attribute suitability at all. Once it is popularized, its impact will be no less than the magic taught by the dragons to the elves of Numerin in the past.
This may be the "mark of the dragon" left by the Numei elves to mortals.
Fang Yu couldn't help but have a strange idea in his mind. Was his encounter in the elven ruins a coincidence?
What does it mean to be the Lord of the Spires?
He came back to his senses and stared at Sylvester's shallow sea-like eyes. The two of them obviously had such thoughts in their minds. There is no doubt that as long as he can produce a crystal of the elven heritage, it will mean that the other party may not be the same.
It must be the person who made the prophecy.
Because at least at this moment, there are already two kinds of 'Dragon Marks'.
"No," Tang Xin obviously saw what he was thinking and replied decisively: "The one-type crystal is the most important secret for you, cousin. No outsider can reveal it except within this team. At least for the time being.
Otherwise, it will only cause greater trouble."
Her tone was so firm that she left no room for error.
Even Tianlan couldn't help but pull Jita aside and whispered: "Brother Ed's sister is so amazing."
Jita nodded with deep understanding.
Fang Yu also nodded when he heard this. He naturally understood this in his heart, especially since this secret could not be revealed in front of people related to the dark dragon.
Although he had such thoughts for a moment, he quickly calmed down. The secret of the Yiyi Crystal must be kept until the day it can have greater significance, instead of being used here to fight for the ownership of the Rose Workshop.
"Then what should we do now?" Ai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask at this time. From the tone of his voice, he had completely regarded himself as one of the Seven Seas Brigade, and he didn't seem to be outside at all.
Sylvide frowned slightly and replied softly: "Since the captain believes that this person has an affair with the dark dragon, Delis's father cannot be ruled out as a suspect. The current situation is different from what we considered before.
There are some changes, and we have to re-plan.”
"Delice's father?" Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Silweide, are you going too far with your suspicion?"
His impression of Delis and the Uncrowned Crown was pretty good.
"It's just a possibility, Captain." Sylvide replied.
"But……"
Sylvide only smiled and said: "Captain, you are good at everything, but you trust strangers too easily."
"Especially women." Tang Xin suddenly made a point.
"Tangtang, what did you say?" Fang Plover was embarrassed.
Sylvide only smiled softly: "But it doesn't matter, after all, we can act as the captain's eyes - not to mention my life experience, suspicious eyes are always essential, I will take good care of this for the captain.
One level."
Fang Yu glanced at his ship officer, wondering if she would be too tired. He couldn't help but think of his acquaintance. When they first met at Traveler's Rest, she also looked at her with the same look.
Come to see your own?
But although Miss Ship Officer did not have the same ability to communicate with his soul as Tata, she seemed to always be able to understand his thoughts. At this time, she smiled slightly and asked softly: "Master Captain, are you thinking of yourself again?"
"ah?"
"Don't worry," Tang Xin suddenly replied coldly, "I guess Miss Sylvide has never doubted you."
"Why, Tangtang?" Fang Yu was puzzled. Is he so special?
"Because you are too stupid," Tang Xin replied, "I wouldn't doubt a fool."
This answer caused everyone to laugh, and the originally uneasy atmosphere relaxed a lot.
Fang Plover was very embarrassed and was about to ask Sylvide what her plans were so that she could change the subject. But at this moment, everyone suddenly saw the Uncrowned Crown walking from the direction of the crowd. The young man returned
Beside everyone, Delis was still following behind.
"Miss Sylvide, we are back." The Uncrowned Crown said.
"Delice, have you seen that gentleman?" Sylvide asked.
The latter nodded.
Fang Yu watched the conversation between the two and couldn't help but feel a little confused. He didn't know what they were talking about. But he suddenly remembered the look in Wu Mian Guan's eyes before he left, and couldn't help but ask: "Wu Mian, what happened before?
, why did you and Delis leave without saying a word?"
Sylvide turned back at this time and said: "Because Delis's father has already planned to marry Delis to that young man named Luo Lin——"
"What!?" Everyone except Sylvide was surprised. How old is Delis? Is such a marriage legal? But Fang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that this was Etalia.
, not his own country.
But Luo Lin is also a selector. According to the provisions of the "Stargate Declaration", the actions of the selector must first comply with the laws of the country where they are located on earth. But this was the uncrowned crown who replied hoarsely:
"It's an engagement, but the nobles of Etalia rarely break their engagements."
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, looked at the other party, and suddenly came back to his senses. He was a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask: "Wumian, you and Miss Delise?"
The Uncrowned Crown blushed upon hearing this, and hurriedly said: "Ed, it's not what you think."
These words shocked Tian Lan: "Wumian, you, you and Miss Delis? De, Delis, she is just... Wu Mian, I didn't expect you to be such a person!"
She was so frightened that she quickly took Jita's little hand and took a step back.
This makes the uncrowned crown at a loss.
Fang Yu also looked seriously at Wu Mian Guan and said: "Wu Mian, between you and Miss Delise?"
The Uncrowned Crown quickly shook his head: "I do like Delis, but there is absolutely no violation of the rules. I will wait until she reaches adulthood, if she still has a reason to accept me then..."
Fang Plover breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that this guy would cause some big trouble. But he also knew that early marriage was common among noble girls in Aitaria, which was very different from the customs on Earth. Although Delis was still young,
But her views on marriage are definitely not comparable to those of other girls of the same age on earth.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Delis took the initiative to take a step forward and said in a childish voice: "I like Wu Mian, and Wu Mian also likes me. What's wrong with this? Mr. Ed, if you are willing to help us
If you are busy, Rose Workshop will definitely stand behind you in the future."
These words made Fang Yu slightly startled. Although Delis usually acted very assertive, the maturity and calmness contained in these words still impressed him. He couldn't help but look at Sylvester behind him, and
The ship officer lady nodded gently to him.
But he thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "Wumian, Delis, you are my friends. Even if there is no matter about the Rose Workshop, I will definitely help you. But Delis, you must
Listen to Wu Mian’s opinion.”
After hearing what he said, Delis couldn't help showing a happy look, nodded and said: "Mr. Ed, I wrongly blamed you before. You are a truly noble person. Sister Sylvide's vision is indeed true."
You are much more powerful than me. If you say that Wu Mian and I are your friends, then both Rose Workshop and I will cherish this friendship."
Fang Yu couldn't help but glance at the little girl.
At this time, Sylvide said: "Then let us think of something. Now that you have contacted that adult, but Delis, there are some changes in the plan now. I need you to find a reliable servant to help us.
Send a message."
"Reliable servant?"
Delis was slightly startled, but still nodded.
The discussion in the hall is reaching a fever pitch. Although the legend is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, people still need time to confirm whether it is true or false.
It's just that Ander Uriel didn't intend to object any more at this moment. He just wanted to find another way to compensate his stupid student. As for the Fairy Heart, naturally he had to find another way.
But just as he was about to turn around, a voice rang in the hall:
"If Luo Lin is really a prophecy, it will be a great blessing for the Southern Alliance, but prophecy is prophecy, and tradition is tradition." The voice replied lightly: "Before this, every successor of Rose Workshop, including the Earl himself, has never
No one in the family has ever made an exception - if the earl makes an exception for Luo Lin, it may not be a good thing for this young man."
After everyone heard this voice, they couldn't help but turn around to look for the person who made the voice. After the crowd separated, everyone could clearly see the person who spoke - the person was blind in one eye, wearing an eyepatch, lame in one leg, and leaning on
Wearing a cane, he is also an old man.
Although this man is physically disabled, no one around him dares to be disrespectful to him at all, just because this man is the previous president of the Elfendor Alchemist Alliance. It is only rumored that he has not managed the internal affairs of the alliance for many years and has nothing to do with An.
Virtue only concentrated on alchemy.
But he didn't expect that the other party would appear at this time.
Even Count Xilin Spica was a little surprised and bowed respectfully to the other party: "Teacher, why are you here?"
Everyone knows that the old speaker is half the earl's mentor.
"I heard there is an outstanding young man," the old man looked at Luo Lin and then smiled slightly: "So I came to see him."
It's just that Ender was a little surprised when he saw this scene. He knew the character of this old guy very well. Apart from money, only the alchemy society could arouse his interest. What kind of outstanding young man would the other party leave his workshop for?
?
He didn't believe it.
But he suddenly realized something and couldn't help but glance into the hall.
But of course I didn’t see Sylvester and Fang Plover.
As for his teacher's opinion, Count Xilin Spica did not dare to disrespect him. He thought for a moment and thought that what the other party said made sense. If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. He is here to protect his favorite.
Making exceptions for young people may not actually be a good thing.
He thought for a moment and then nodded: "What the teacher said is that we should follow the tradition of Elfendor and ask you to give a testimony."
As soon as he said this, there was a lot of discussion in the hall.
After listening to the conversation between the two parties, Fang Yu couldn't help but turn around and ask Sylvide: "What is Elfendor's tradition?"
"That is an assessment ceremony for the heirs of the Rose Workshop," Sylvide looked at the center of the hall, her eyes flashed like the sea and said: "Under the witness of twelve masters, it is confirmed whether the examiner has this qualification.
Of course, there are not many great craftsmen and great alchemists to be found in the southern region now, but it is also required that the test be completed under the witness of the top seven members of the Elfendor Council."
"The highest seven?"
"Master Ander is one of them, but he is the last speaker. There is also the previous speaker, the person who spoke before. He is the mentor of Deris' father and has a respected status. And the current speaker Sonan-Gangmei
, plus four department heads of the Elfendor (Southern Realm) Alchemist Alliance - Delis's father is one of them, and Pudra is also one of them, he is the director of the Potions Department."
"So Delise's father is the head of the Fairy Making Department?" Fang Yu asked.
Sylvide nodded: "In addition, there is the Crystal Department and the Combat Artisan Department. The Southern Alchemist Department is not as detailed as the Artisan Union."
Tang Xin couldn't help but ask: "Then this assessment is too childish? If the heir has evil intentions, wouldn't it be very bad for you?"
"That's not the case," Sylvester replied: "The assessment is only one aspect, and those who participate in the assessment must swear an oath on Elfendor's Seal Stone to never violate the original intention of the alliance."
"What's the use? This doesn't guarantee that the other party will not deteriorate in the future."
Hearing this, Sylvester only smiled slightly.
Fang Yu then replied: "Tangtang, nothing is perfect in this world. Besides, the Southern Alliance has existed for so long, so it should have its own set of supervision systems."
Ai Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to look at this stupid 'cousin' after hearing this.
Tang Xin gritted her teeth, and her cold eyes were pricking the latter with holes: "Fang Gezi, great, now you are helping outsiders - I will remember you!"
However, Fang Yu was obviously unaware of this. He could only see it at this moment. The mentor of Earl Xilin Spica and the former president of the Southern Alchemist Alliance should be the one whom Sylvide had previously asked Delis to meet Wu.
The 'adult' whom Crown Crown went to contact.
It seems that the other party is already prepared. If the count recommends Luo Lin, this 'sir' will find a way to lead the recommendation to the assessment. And presumably the other party can participate in the assessment, and Sylvide will naturally find a way to get him to participate as well.
.
It's just that the current situation is different from before. After the prophecy is close to him, it will not be so easy for him to take part in this assessment.
He can't really expose the secret of the Yiyi Crystal, or go up and claim that he is the savior of Fenris Island?
Both of these things are secrets that cannot be easily revealed in front of Dragon Worshipers.
He couldn't help but look at Sylvester, a little curious about what she was thinking of.
At this moment, Falaise was obviously a little curious. Because he saw that his friend had been looking sad before, but since a servant came over and whispered a few words to him not long ago, the look on his face immediately relaxed.
He even smiled slightly, looking mysterious and mysterious.
You can never underestimate the curiosity of a dwarf. Falaise was as curious as a cat, and he couldn't help but want to go up and ask the other person what happened. But at this moment, Ander suddenly took a step forward and said:
"Speaking of assessment, I also have an idea."
The Earl was startled for a moment, turned back to look at him, and asked, "What do you think, Master Ander?"
Ender smiled slightly: "Instead of conducting the assessment in private, why not make it public? In this way, no one will have any doubts about the fact that Luo Lin is the successor of the Earl. I have a suggestion here. The Continental League is being held in Vanrich.
