Etila groped on the wall for a while, but found nothing. She frowned and stepped back, placing a fist on her chin with one hand, looking at the small space in the cell in trance.
Fang Yu looked behind for a while, then asked: "Is it behind this wall?"
Miss Elf turned back to look at him and nodded gently.
"Miss Attila, let me try it."
Attila nodded again and stepped aside.
Fang Yu passed through her and groped the cold wall with his hands. The roughness in his palms had a different kind of time-precipitated touch. He groped for a while, and while searching, he suddenly asked: "Miss Attila,
Were those two skeletons always in that place?"
"Yes, so when you threatened them, I was a little surprised."
"But why did they see me?"
Etila reminded softly: "Maybe it's just your illusion, don't think too much, Ed."
"But……"
But if he hadn't killed those two people, how could they have died in this place?
Fang Yu kept flashing back to the previous scene in his memory. The position where the two jailers fell coincided with reality. Because it was so bizarre, it almost gave him the illusion of traveling through time.
Aitila looked at the ring of golden flames in his hand, thought for a moment, and replied: "Perhaps, that is what the Golden Dragon wants you to see."
"What does Dragon's Golden Dragon...want me to see?" Fang Plover stopped. What does Dragon's Golden Dragon want him to see, the two dead people? What's so special about these two ordinary jailers?
Office?
Attila reminded him: "Don't forget, there is also part of the power of Nini and Eve in the Golden Dragon of Ed. It guides you in the dark because they recognize you."
When Nini heard someone calling her name, she quickly turned around to show her presence: "Nini, here!"
Attila glanced at this little guy.
She was in a 'death struggle' with Miss Delis. Miss Cat put a paw on her forehead with an indifferent expression, and made her wave her little hands to keep her from making any progress. However, she was not angry, but was enjoying it.
Fang Yu also looked here and shook his head.
He was still thinking about why Dragon King wanted to show him the death of these two people. And what did Miss Eve mean when she said it was too late? What exactly was too late?
Suddenly a deep light flashed in his eyes.
He suddenly thought, if it wasn't him, then who killed these two people?
Maybe this is what Miss Eve wants to tell him——
Fang Yu then continued to explore and asked: "Miss Aitila, do you have any thoughts on what you have seen along the way?"
"You mean clues?"
Fang Plover nodded.
"There are some clues. The wanderer should be Nicol Bolas's biological father. Archon Garcia and the Great Elder called him 'Alt Ellingran', but I don't know if this name is a pseudonym, but
The surname should not be false."
"Ellingland is the family from which the great mage Karatu was born, as Sir Dict told you. The previous owners of this family had served as the chief court mage of the kingdom a century ago."
"At the same time, he is also the real master of Elmau Castle," Etila said softly: "You can generally understand what this person did. In order to pursue something that should not belong to him, he was cold-blooded and ruthless. Even his own daughter was so cold-blooded.
Sacrificed."
"There is also Idos," Fang Plover replied: "This city, maybe many people in this city have been taken advantage of, but their crimes will not lead to death."
"As for the details that Miss Attila is unclear about, I can actually tell you a thing or two."
"That man was not only the owner of Elmaor Castle, but also married a daughter of the Grossl family. In order to try to transfer the soul of Lifgard sealed in the Holy Sword of Moa to Eve, he caused his own death.
My wife died tragically.”
"I think that's why Elmau Castle was reduced to ruins——"
"I have seen a large number of strange black crystals in the underground of Elmao Castle, and a strange enemy that looks like a shadow. When I killed them, I got a fragment of the Holy Sword of Moa from their corpses."
"Thinking about it now, those black crystals are very similar to the crystals we saw at the 'Dragon's First Scale' before. In Talliania, crystals are crystals of magic power, so the crystals in the two places may come from the same place.
A similar magic."
"This kind of magic is Lifgard's power, and it is also what the wanderer has been pursuing. The disaster in Elmau Castle originated from a magic release. When Lifgard's power passed through the body of 'Alt's wife,
When the medium was injected into Eve's body, the dissipated power not only destroyed Elmau Castle and killed all surrounding creatures, but the remaining power also turned into those shadow-like monsters."
"Those monsters are actually the soul fragments of Dragon King Lifgard. Of course, most of the power was absorbed by Nicol Bolas, and only a very small part remains."
As Fang Yu said this, he couldn't help but think of the peaceful portrait of the girl in the underground of Elmao Castle again. It turned out that that was Eve's mother.
The two of them have completely similar temperaments.
He continued:
"So, 'Alt' got an embryonic Lifgard, a daughter who inherited the fire of Venus - the Golden Eyes of the Dragon. Although it is not clear how he survived that disaster, but
He must have been seriously injured, otherwise he would not have taken away the broken holy sword Moya."
"Later, the dragon worshipers and people from the Dragon Fire Guild we met in Elmao Castle were most likely ordered by him to go back to find the Holy Sword Moa. Because his plan failed a hundred years ago, Nicobo
After the defeat of Lars, the Golden Dragon also disappeared during the battle of Dolifen and fell into the hands of Mazak."
"Ed, you said that the Dragon Cult is divided into two factions. One faction is the mastermind of the 'Dragon Witch' incident a hundred years ago, and the other is the opposition faction headed by Pudra."
Etila asked softly:
"So, he is Luo Lin's 'master'?"
Fang Yu frowned: "There is a possibility."
"Just maybe?"
"Because there are still some doubts, including the sudden appearance of the descendant of Flor, and there should be a group of people behind it. And why the air pirates don't know the secret of 'Idos' underground, this makes me a little confused.
"
"This person gives me the feeling that he does not seem to be of the same mind as the Dragon Worshipers. But when I think of what Pudra said before - 'That person tried to throw away Lord Deluan's power and fight against Baham on his own.
Special'——Although it is not clear whether Deluan is another name of Lifgard, does this mean that he had different intentions from the beginning?"
"This is in line with our previous understanding of the wanderer, who is tolerant, calm, and almost ruthless. He is not like the kind of person who can devote his life fanatically to a belief, but more like a selfish, indifferent person.
The single husband."
"How can such a person dedicate himself to others, no matter whether this dedication is good or bad. Miss Attila, and then thinking of his series of arrangements for Eve, I came up with an idea."
Attila only looked at him quietly and did not speak.
In fact, it's not the first time, but every time like this, this young man makes people feel particularly at ease. He not only has a sense of justice, courage, and action, but also has enough self-confidence to face all evil things.
.
Self-confidence at critical moments often stimulates a person's full potential, being both calm and imaginative.
And such imagination will greatly strengthen a person's insight.
For ordinary people, there are always areas in which they are good or bad, but in critical moments, few people can be so calm; therefore, the more urgent the moment, the more valuable this quality is.
It will help a person and a team ultimately achieve success.
This may be the reason why everyone finally chooses to trust.
She watched the other person grow up at an unimaginable speed, from that ignorant boy to the person he is today. Attila couldn't help but think of her younger brother and sighed softly.
But Fang Yu continued:
"He doesn't just want Lifgard's power—"
"What he wants is not the almost monster-like immortality that the dark dragons give their servants. What he wants is to become the master of this power, not even just the incarnation of the dark dragon, but a higher-level existence.
.”
"That's why he imprisoned the power of Dragon King Lifgard in Eve's body and controlled it through the power of Dragon's Golden Dragon. Yes, Dragon's Golden Dragon," Fang Yu looked at the ring in his hand: "This
This ring was not forged by Yosuude and Karatu, but was a token of love given to Yosuude by Eve——"
"I guess how could Eve, who was so ostracized among the Oath Keepers, have such a ring that was neither gold nor iron, but made of extraordinary material. And Eve told me at the time that she and Yossiude were in the Snake Man Temple.
The one who found this ring——"
"But she and Yuxiude didn't go deep there at all. How could they find such an extraordinary ring?"
Attila asked: "Did Alter leave it to her?"
Fang Plover nodded.
"He kept trying to induce Eve, just to make Eve break through the shackles and completely release the fire in her heart. This ring is the only bond between her and Yuxiude. When she transformed into a dragon, this ring
It is her only connection with this past world."
"So by mastering this ring, you have mastered Nicol Bolas's only weakness, and Alt should have left some means on this ring. He has that weird method to release the magic power in the holy sword Moana.
Dragon Soul, and transferred it to Eve, and still survived the disaster in Elmao Castle."
"I'm really curious, where did he get this knowledge? From now on, it seems that ordinary dragon worshipers, even high-level officials like Pudra, have a deeper understanding of the dark dragon than this person -
It can even be said to be completely ignorant compared to it.”
"This is also my only doubt——"
Attila listened silently for a long time. She turned her eyes and looked at the young man's side face, while Fang Pliong continued to focus on the stone wall while speaking, and it could be said that he did not pay attention to this direction.
Miss Elf looked at it for a while and then asked: "Ed, aren't you scared?"
Fang Yu was startled and turned around: "What are you afraid of?"
"This man's ambition is so disturbing," Etila replied: "From the plan you described, he didn't even look into Lifgard's eyes. Pudra also said that he wanted to
One person fights against the dragon guardian Bahamut."
She paused for a moment before saying, "Have you ever thought about what he is after?"
Fang Yu nodded: "He wants to become the Dark Saints."
"Rolin said he was a devil."
"What he did can indeed be called a devil, but I have reservations about it. I always feel that Luo Lin did not tell us the truth completely, Miss Attila."
"Then are you afraid of being an enemy of such a man?"
Fang Yu was stunned and realized that he had never considered this issue before.
Is he afraid? To say that he is afraid, he is really not afraid. What he is afraid of is losing the people around him, but he does not think so much about his own safety. This does not mean that he has any fearless spirit, it is just because he is a
The Chosen One.
He still has a chance to go back and start over. Even if he is doomed, he can still return to the earth.
It’s just that I would still be a little sad if I couldn’t see Sylvide and Miss Attila, as well as other people.
But on such a big issue of right and wrong, what do these personal gains and losses count? Who doesn’t have a dream of a hero? Compared with those who really gave their lives, he feels that he just has something to rely on.
But it's not entirely true to say that he has no worries at all. He is afraid of getting the people around him involved, and he is even more afraid that his efforts will be meaningless. Faced with such a person, even the Ten Kings would not dare to say that they are completely sure.
?
Not to mention him.
Of course, there is the military behind him.
But now he can't afford to wait. There is Miss Eve in front of him, and her plan may come true a moment later. It may not have any impact, but it may cause a storm in Corin-Ithurian.
Will there be no bones behind the birth of a dark saint?
He can be scared, but he can't stop.
Fang Yu shook his head and replied:
"One hundred years ago was actually the time when he was closest to success. Not only did he steal the Holy Sword Moa from somewhere, but he also successfully injected the power of Lifgard into his daughter - even though Elmau Castle was destroyed
, but he almost succeeded."
"Later, his affairs were exposed, which turned the Elingren family and the Logisl family into feuds. Although he did not dare to return to Elmau Castle from then on, he also brought Eve with him after several years of wandering.
Go to the desert where the Oath Keepers live."
"There, he used his sweet words to seduce the Great Elder of Dragonland, trying to make him believe that Nicol Bolas was the legendary man who could bring relief to the Oathkeepers. But the old and dim Elder,
Even though Li Ling was so stupid, he obviously chose to believe this statement."
"Then Garcia also joined his plan. They arranged step by step to force Miss Eve into a desperate situation, ignite the fire in her heart, and use her anger and hatred to transform into the dark dragon - Nicol Bolas."
"But Mr. Mazak said that Nicol Bolas had a eccentric character and was the man of disaster predicted in the prophecy. He was actually a bit wrong. Eve is not only not the man of disaster, she is actually the most steadfast and brave person I have ever seen.
people."
"Under such circumstances, she was still able to maintain a glimmer of hope in her heart. It was not until her hope was shattered that she transformed into a dragon. After living in a dark prison for three long years, not to mention having the blood of a dragon, how many people could
So insistent?"
"So I guess the wanderer didn't tell a complete lie. Nicol Bolas was really the savior of the Oathkeepers. Unfortunately, they chose to drive their savior to a dead end in another way.
.”
"So the prophecy was confirmed in an ironic way. Eve disappeared, and Nicol Bolas really became the 'disaster' in the prophecy. But the person who brought the disaster was really the one named Everiel-
The Maiden of Nicol Bolas?"
"It's better to say it's the people themselves——"
"And the day of Idos was also the moment when the wanderer was closest to his success. All the plans were carried out according to his arrangements. Originally, there would be one more person in the world a hundred years ago.
Saints of Darkness."
"But everything that happened after that, Miss Attila, we all know." Fang Yu turned around and said: "Even though he was so close to success, he still failed. Ten years later, Nicol Bolas transformed into Kaolin -
The conspiracy within the Ithurian court was exposed, and Karatu and Yoshid joined forces to fight against it——"
"That battle took place in the Ash Mountain Forest," Fang Plover said as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes: "Then Nicol Bolas was defeated, and then in the battle of Doliphon, he lost even the more precious Dragon Gold.
It’s also lost.”
"Careful planning and ingenious workmanship," Fang Yu replied word for word: "But without the righteousness of the enemy, some things are destined to fail."
"So," he asked, "why should I be afraid of a loser?"
He raised his head and looked into the void: "Nicol Bolas, are you scared to death by such a person?"
"Compared to Yuexiude, he is your enemy. In this regard, you are far worse than Miss Eve. Even if she is alone, she will stay here for a hundred years. After Lord Yuexiude leaves this world
Half a century later, she is still firmly fulfilling her promise with them——"
"what about you?"
"You are neither as upright as Miss Misu nor as brave as Miss Eve. You are just a loser."
"Shut up!"
A low roar came from the void.
Aitila raised her head and looked in that direction with a bit of surprise. For a moment, she looked back at Fang Plover, and for a moment she couldn't figure out how the other party found out that the dragon witch had been spying on them.
But Fang Yu actually just suddenly figured out something during the previous conversation.
He squinted and looked into the darkness there.
"That bastard tried to use the power of the Golden Dragon to control me, and also tried to get his hands on the power of the green. Naturally, he and I are enemies rather than friends, but that doesn't mean I care about your life or death," Nicol Bolas's voice said:
"Don't talk nonsense, you will be wiped out in ashes soon."
Fang Plover replied quietly:
"Since my life and death has nothing to do with you, I will be wiped out and have no impact on you. But the people who have an impact on you are not only still alive and well, but they are about to regain Lifgard's power."
He seemed to suddenly understand why Nicol Bolas appeared before.
He also completely figured out why the strange relationship between Nicol Bolas and the Dragon Cult came about. Because this is the reason for everything.
When the thread was untied, Fang Plov suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
He sneered at that place: "You are afraid, right? You are afraid of being controlled by the Golden Dragon again. If not, why are you sneaking here? You will be worried about Miss Eve, stop joking,
Nicol Bolas—"
Nicol Bolas suddenly fell silent.
It sneered: "What's the use of saying this now? You don't want me to save you because you regret it, right? But let alone that person, I don't have the ability, and even if I have the ability, I can't
Won’t do that.”
It mocked coldly: "I prefer to see you tortured and wailing for a while, as punishment for disrespecting me in Vanric and Dolifen."
"It's a pity that you can't watch him wailing in torture."
These words seemed to sting Nicol Bolas, causing him to shut up.
Fang Yu took the opportunity to speak: "Nico Bolas, if you want to cause some trouble for that man, tell me his weakness immediately. There must be a reason why he has not been here for thirty years, right?"
"In the end, you still have to make a deal with me, little one," Nicol Bolas smiled: "Yes, you can, but—"
"No, you are mistaken."
Fang Plover shook his head, interrupted it and said - there are few people in this world who dare or have the opportunity to interrupt the Dragon Witch, but Fang Plover has obviously achieved this achievement. Unfortunately, the system does not recognize it.
He said: "Now I ask you to answer this question and tell me the weakness of that wanderer. Why does he need decades to prepare for every action? There must be something wrong with it."
"Boy," Nicol Bolas almost turned the square plover into ashes with a breath of fire - if it hadn't been just an phantom here: "Are you too arrogant?"
"It's up to you whether you want to answer or not. Anyway, you're going to die for me."
"you--"
"ten,"
"Nine,"
"eight,"
Fang Plover raised his hands and even started counting down.
Nicol Bolas, shaking with rage, could only reply: "He needs to find a new body."
"A new body?" Fang Yu was shocked: "What does that mean?"
Nicol Bolas sneered: "You dare to challenge him even if you don't know anything. You really don't know how to live or die. How do you think he escaped the disaster at Elspear Castle? That is the power of the Dragon King. No one can
Spared."
"He is already dead, but he signed a contract with a devil, so he can be said to never die. That devil is called Andro by you, one of the 'Supreme Ones' of the Dark Saints."
"But then he abandoned Andro, ambitious to find his own way to become a god, and tried to replace the latter. Therefore, he and Andro turned against each other, and the power Andro gave him became a curse."
"But he is indeed a genius. He reached an agreement with Lifgard in the Holy Sword of Moa, used Lifgard's power to resolve Andro's curse, and has since become a half-dead state."
"After his death, he traveled through the 'Dragon Kingdom' of the Dark Dragon in the form of his soul, and transformed into a beam of purple fire, because that was the manifestation of Lifgard's power. With the help of this power, he could seize other people's bodies.
"
"And the people whose bodies he takes away become Lifgard's servants and minions, walking in the world. This is the agreement between him and the Dragon King."
"It's a pity that he and Lifgard plotted against each other. He didn't want to be enslaved by Lifgard, and soon after, he betrayed the Dark Dragon King again. Moreover, he in turn wanted to dominate Lifgard.
strength."
"That's why there are those stories after that——"
Nicol Bolas replied: "In a sense, I also have to thank him for his ambition, otherwise I would not have come to this world. It is a pity that this man is a madman, he thinks that he is the master of the world.
"
"And when he betrayed Lifgard, the two powers left permanent marks on him, so he is now a wandering ghost for most of his existence. Every ten years or so, he
Only then can we regain our strength and obtain a suitable body——"
Fang Yu's heart moved and he asked subconsciously:
"Does the soul of the person whose body he took away still exist?"
"This is natural. Life is worse than death, because Lifgard's power will imprison them forever."
When Fang Yu heard this, several pictures suddenly flashed through his mind - he seemed to see the armor that was swaying and falling in front of Etila and Tianlan. There was also the strange figure passing through the wind in front of Sophie.
The empty armor of the eldest son of Duke Phoenix of Snow.
There were also those purple flaming figures he had seen during the battle outside the Hall of Thousand Doors.
I see.
Etila also reacted: "Who is the person whose body he took away this time?"
"I don't know," Nicol Bolas replied, "but I know who it was last time."
Fang Yu actually guessed who it was, and the name that flashed in his mind was-El Tot Elinglen.
The other party is a close friend of the dwarf Hagston. Karatu and Joshid must have known how their companions were controlled by the wanderer, but they were powerless in the face of Lifgard's curse.
Hagerstown stole the Dragon's Golden Column, and Yoshid knew this but did not stop him. He must have understood what was going on. The dwarf wanted to save his friend, but in the end he had to accept his wandering.
The bewitchment of the person.
That's why everything about Doriffin came about.
It's just that a hundred years later, not many people know the inside story of that transaction, but judging from the armor of Altaut in the cemetery, it seems that the dwarf did not get any results he wanted except for the name of a traitor.
So the two people on the log.
The whereabouts of the daughter of the Rogelsl family, El Tot Elinglen, have all been found. Only the last one is still a mystery.
But Fang Plover can't control that much.
He had heard the implication of Nicol Bolas' words. The wanderer was not dead. He was still alive, and he was probably already here and would meet them soon. Before that, he had to understand the opponent's weakness.
Carrying the curse of the Dragon King and a Dark Saint, there was no way he could remain unharmed.
"So what's his weakness?"
"Is it useful to tell you about his weaknesses?" Nicol Bolas's voice was full of sarcasm: "The so-called weaknesses are relative. To you, the other party is a person close to God. A mouse can catch it.
Is it Goshawk’s weakness?”
Fang Yu was very annoyed and said: "Then why are you telling me this!?"
Nicol Bolas probably felt a little bored himself, so he replied: "Well, after he seizes a person's body, he needs a certain amount of time to regain his strength. It shouldn't have been long since he seizes the body this time, and his strength is probably not even ten.
One or two——"
Fang Yu calculated the time since Duke Phoenix's eldest son disappeared, and it was indeed less than half a year ago.
At this point, Nicol Bolas took a breath and said: "It's a pity that you ruined my plan in Vanric. Otherwise, if I hadn't been hit by the 'Huma' Dragon Spear, I wouldn't have needed you to take action. I would have done it myself."
You can kill him in this state."
"This man is very thoughtful. I don't know why he rushed here in such a hurry this time. Under normal circumstances, you would not be able to see him again for at least seven or eight years. At that time, even your ten kings combined would not be his.
opponent."
A flash of lightning flashed in Fang Yu's heart, and he suddenly asked: "Wait a minute, you said Van Rick was not his plan?"
"Of course not. There is someone in the Dragon Cult who knows that person's condition better than me and wants to get rid of him with my help. That's why Vanric took such actions," Nicol Bolas replied:
"I'm happy to go with the flow."
Fang Yu nodded: "Okay, I understand."
But just as he finished speaking, a faint voice came from the dark corridor:
"Wonderful discussion," the voice was low and hoarse, but it had the power to shake people's hearts. A middle-aged man with a shaggy beard who looked nothing like the eldest son of Duke Phoenix walked out of the darkness.
.
The other party's face was so pale that he was a little frightening, almost like a vampire. His sunken eyes were fixed on Fang Plover with his dull eyes, and he slowly said: "But how do you know about your failure in Vanrik?"
Without my share of the credit, Nicol Bolas?"
When Fang Yu saw this person, he took a step back as if he had seen a ghost.
This was probably the first time he felt scared since today's expedition. Because the middle-aged man standing in front of him was none other than the current head of the Rose family, Delise's father, Count Xilin Spica.
And the little barefoot girl behind the other party, who is it if it’s not Delis?
It's just that the other person looked confused, as if he didn't recognize him.
Fang Plover turned his eyes again and saw Eve being held in the hands of Count Xilin Spica.
And Eve also looked at him. A trace of anxiety flashed in her eyes, and she didn't care about anything else. She immediately shouted: "Mr. Ed, the mechanism is not over the wall! It's under the bed, run! Get out of this place."
