There were bursts of harsh noises coming from the crystal, like a sharp instrument scratching a blackboard. Amidst this uncomfortable background sound, a somewhat distorted human voice suddenly spoke.
Fang Yu looked at Luo Yu who was aside, and then looked at the recording crystal on the table. "Is this the sound recorded in the monastery that day?" he suddenly asked. Luo Yu nodded, that day they
Went to the monastery to investigate the shadow man's attack, and the only gain was the voice recorded in this crystal.
"Tianlan analyzed the sound rays? It was faster than I thought."
"We contacted some private audio laboratories on the other side of the stargate to help and distributed some of the tasks."
Fang Yu was a little surprised. He remembered that the price of this type of audio laboratory was quite high, right? "Who paid for it?"
"Tianlan herself and Miss Ai Xiaoxiao also paid part of it." Luo Yu replied.
Two little rich girls, Fang Yu thought. Ai Xiaoxiao was not surprised. He had always known that his cousin's best friend was a rich girl. However, Tianlan was just as he imagined, in the twelve-color iris flower
His status is not low enough to run around so freely.
He turned around, and at this moment a second person's voice sounded in the crystal: "What do you want to talk about, Finn?"
"We need to talk about that crystal, Tad."
"What do you think of what we escorted?"
"The Chosen Ones have gone to bed, so I'll get straight to the point. You know the origin of that thing is not consistent with what we claim. It didn't come from Gula, but was here from the beginning. We paid for it to get it.
It’s not a small price to pay, have you heard that rumor?”
"You're overthinking, Finn," the second voice seemed a little calm, "It arrived here later than you thought, and it has nothing to do with the dark history in the rumors."
"But this place was once the property of the Clairvaux family, the place where the Crow King finally drank his hatred. He was arrogant, proclaimed himself king, and was attacked by the coalition forces. The king at the time, Eisen IV, personally ordered him to be executed
Hanging - it was here that people say his ghost haunts him to this day."
"That's just a rumor. How many people have actually seen that magic sword?" A second voice interrupted: "The Clairvaux family has become a thing of the past, just like many things of that era."
"But this monastery was built to seal the soul of the Crow King. But we have been underground, and the other's shrine has long since disappeared, leaving only an inexplicable replacement. But the age of that armor
The history is much more recent than that of the Clairvaux family, and that may be his descendant——"
"He has no descendants, Finn," the second voice said louder: "I don't know where you heard this rumor, but everyone in the Clairvaux family died in that war.
Including the Crow King himself."
"I don't want to discuss the Crow King and the Clairvaux family with you, Tad," the first voice replied: "I just want to tell you that someone once came here, decades ago, and took away
The coffin of the Crow King. And it is inconsistent with the information given to us by the Crow Claw Temple. The crystal is not harmless. We paid the price of several people to get it..."
"Second, where did the crystal in Gula Port come from?"
The second voice was silent for a moment, and then answered: "Our task is just to bring it back, Finn, this is an order from the Archon, and it was confirmed by the order signed by the Grand Master himself. We
Your duty is to obey orders and nothing else."
"But, Tad."
"I will report all this truthfully to His Excellency the Grand Master," the second voice interrupted again, "until we return to El Paxin, but before that, I don't want to discuss it anymore."
The sound from behind suddenly turned into a scream, so harsh that Fang Plover couldn't help but take a step back. Then came a messy sound. Among the suddenly high-pitched noise, a stern warning came: "Be careful behind you."
, Tad, there’s something in that direction!”
"Damn it, wake up everyone else-"
Then there was the sound of swords clashing, which was so sharp that it almost exceeded the limit of human hearing.
Various sounds compounded together, and finally turned into a monotonous high-pitched tone, which lasted for several minutes before gradually drawing a rest.
After this sharp sound, like a sharp instrument carving on the glass, everything gradually turned into nothingness. In the recording crystal, a purple flame actually ignited, and then turned into an eye, quietly
He stared at the room quietly for a moment.
Fang Yu watched the eye disappear into nothingness in the darkness, and a feeling seemed to arise naturally in his heart - someone had seen them. He opened his mouth, but could not make any sound for a long time.
"What is that?" After a while, he asked.
What is recorded in the recording crystal is only sound, but where did the last picture come from?
The thrilling purple flame appeared repeatedly in his mind, as if it were lifelike, watching them there.
Luo Yu shook his head, and then replied: "I think that's the power that stayed there, disturbing these voices. Although we don't quite know why this conversation was left in that place, maybe
It has nothing to do with this force."
What is that power?
Fang Yu recalled the purple flame in his mind and wondered if it was also related to the shadow man?
He thought quietly for a moment, but could not draw any further conclusions other than guessing, so he returned his thoughts to the previous conversation. He looked at the former and asked: "What do you think about that conversation?"
look?"
"The two people in the conversation, the former is the Grand Knight of the Silver Wind Knights, and should also be the leader of this operation. The knight named Finn, I have not found him, maybe he is just an ordinary knight of the Knights
That’s all.”
"Have you asked Saya, didn't the Oak Knights of Tapolis also participate in this escort?"
Luo Yu shook his head.
Fang Yu took out the communication crystal and sent a message to the team channel, asking Hongye and Saya to come over and take a look, while asking again: "Who is the Crow King?"
"Ainoson Clairvaux, a descendant of Edwin's eldest son Evans, the last generation of the head of the Clairvaux family in the north," there was a flash of silver light, and Miss Tata appeared on his shoulder and replied softly: "
I have heard his name, and people say he was so arrogant that he bordered on madness. He proclaimed himself king and made himself an enemy of the entire kingdom - and then he was defeated and killed, and with him the entire House of Clairvaux was overthrown."
Fang Yu turned around a little surprised and asked: "Miss Tata, what did you remember?"
Tata shook his head: "There are only some scattered memories, but they are more like knowledge than memories. I have never forgotten knowledge."
"That at least means that the period of time when you were sleeping should be within the period of history four hundred years ago to the present, otherwise you would not have heard of this Crow King," Fang Plover said, "I think this may be a
The way to do this is to look at which period of history you know is closest to today, so maybe you can determine the era you came from."
But Miss Goblin shook her head again: "I'm afraid this won't work. There are some memories that it's difficult for me to recall on my own initiative. They are like fragments floating in the dark. When you mention them, Mr. Knight, I can
Looking back, it's just like this Crow King."
"Then if we have time," Fang Yu thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe we can discuss history."
Tata raised his eyes to look at it, nodded and said: "Thank you, Mr. Knight."
But there is no need to say this, because both of them can feel each other's feelings - that feeling of being connected, as if they are the most tacit understanding of people in their lives, everything is self-evident, and they only need to exchange
With one look, you can understand what the other person is thinking.
The Nanami Traveler was not big. At this time, Hongye and Saya had already pushed in the door. Luo Yu turned around and looked at the two of them. Hongye looked at him curiously and asked with his eyes, "What's going on here?"
whats the matter?
Fang Yu did not beat around the bush, he went straight to the point and asked the two about the details of the operation. The main person he asked was actually Saya, while Hongye just asked him to come here to prove his understanding of the Tapolis Oak.
It's just the situation within the Knights.
After listening to the two people's questions, Saya nodded directly.
The female swordsman said that the leader of the Silver Wind Knights at that time and the person who contacted them were none other than the Great Knight Tad. After receiving a positive answer, Fang Pliance remained silent for a moment before asking: "Where are they?"
After being attacked by the Shadow Man one night, no other abnormalities occurred?"
Saya looked at him a little confused, not quite sure what it meant?
"What I mean is," Fang Plover said, "Everyone of them has been resurrected?"
"Ed, you asked me this question once, and I remember answering, every one of them was resurrected."
"Then they have all returned to Elpaxin, many of them, including the great knight Tad and the knight named Finn."
Saya was a little confused: "I don't know exactly, but it should be so."
"What about your people who went to El Paxin with them?" Fang Pliong asked.
"They should still be in El Pashin, under house arrest there."
"Can you contact those people?"
Saya frowned slightly, looked at him, and then nodded.
"Then can you confirm this with them and see if everyone has returned to Elpaxin, including the great knight Tad."
"Now?" Saya asked a little surprised.
"This is very important to us right now, Miss Saya."
Hongye looked at them and couldn't help but ask: "What happened, Ed?"
But Fang Yu shook his head. He did have some doubts in his heart, but all this still needs reliable evidence to confirm. The power displayed on the recording crystal was obviously evil and extraordinary, and among the voices recorded in the crystal,
The things mentioned in that conversation are also very doubtful in hindsight.
What the Crow King left behind seems to have something to do with the armor underground in the monastery, and that is almost inseparable from the dark power. More importantly, what the two men mentioned as "the one they escorted"
Object'—the crystal.
The knight named Finn claimed that he felt great uneasiness from the crystal. For this reason, he even argued with the leader of the operation, a great knight. They paid a lot of money to get 'that thing'
The price, and what exactly is that crystal?
At this moment, Saya was taking out the communication crystal and seemed to be contacting Elpaxin. She nodded from time to time and was confirming the news sent back from there.
She raised her head at this time and gestured to Fang Plover with her eyes - that's it. Everyone returned to Elpaxin, including the great knight named Tad.
But Fang Yu did not continue to ask about the attack that night, but instead asked:
"Is that thing really lost? About the thing escorted by the Knights?"
"That's what they claim," Saya put down the communication crystal and replied, "It is for this reason that the guild got into a lot of trouble."
But Fang Yu always felt that in the recorded voice, the attack was too coincidental. Why did the shadow man fight for the crystal and take it away from the monastery?
Moreover, the two knights mentioned in the conversation that there is another crystal in Gula Port. The first crystal has always existed underground in the monastery outside Gray Owl Town, and they seemed to be familiar with the Gula Port.
The origin of this crystal is doubtful.
'Second, where did the crystal in Gula Port come from?'
These are the exact words of the knight of Finn——
This sentence may not sound like a big deal to other people, but Fang Yu couldn't help but recall the scene he saw in the castle not long ago.
In that phantom, the thing held up by the woman from the pool happened to be a crystal. The two were such a coincidence that it was difficult for him not to connect the two things together. If they were in
The crystal seen under the Snowstone Castle happened to be the one the two knights mentioned in their conversation. Where is the crystal in Gula Port?
Shadow Man, Crystal, Crow's Claw Temple, and the missing Chosen One.
Except for the last point, it seems that the shadows of the first three can be seen in different events that happened in the two places. If there is only one thing in common, it can be said to be a coincidence, but there are not so many coincidences in the world.
Similar to?
Is there any potential connection between these two events that they are not aware of?
Since everything that happened in the Snow Stone Castle might be closely related to their current situation, Fang Plover had to think deeply about whether there were any details that he had not discovered.
He looked at Hongye and Saya, and suddenly asked: "Do you still remember what happened to the Dragon Fire Guild?" They both nodded, especially the former, who personally participated in the Dolifen incident, how could he forget?
Come on? And Saya, as the upper-middle class of the Oak Knights, obviously also knows the inside story of this matter.
Fang Yu was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Then I have a hypothesis. Do you think it is possible that the same situation exists in the Tapolis Oak Knights? I mean, this is just a hypothesis, Miss Saya.
, are those who participated in this operation, including some senior members of the Oak Knights, also involved in the Dragon Fire Guild?"
Both of them widened their eyes.
"This is impossible," Hongye said first: "Although they have disagreements with Miss Yugudola and the others, they have not reached that point. I know many of those people, and I am also familiar with the high-level decisions.
They have participated, but they will never collude with the cultists."
Saya also slowly shook her head, indicating that this statement was somewhat undesirable.
Fang Yu couldn't help but fell silent when he saw the two people's reactions.
…
In the busy captain's hall of the Red Queen, Liuying was looking at Kaka beside him a little nervously.
"How's it going?" She finally couldn't help but ask, "Did you find it?"
Kaka wore goggles on his head, and while raising the control gloves in his hand, he replied weakly: "That's so fast, and there are a total of eight search teams here, and I'm just one of them. Just ask me...
What’s the use, am I so lucky, my eldest lady?”
"luck?"
Liu Ying's voice sounded a little suspicious, seriously doubting the reliability of the guy in front of him.
"Luck is really important," Kaka replied: "In such a large-scale operation, personal strength only accounts for a small part. Of course, the more clockwork fairies you control, the higher the chance of discovering the opponent.
The bigger it gets. But in general, it still depends on your appearance."
Liuying asked very suspiciously: "Really, but why do I always feel that you are making excuses for your fishing behavior?"
"That's part of the reason," Kaka said frankly: "But even if I'm lazy, my efficiency is better than others, and that's enough, isn't it? And this is really not an excuse. In fact, luck plays a big role in
It’s really important for the electors.”
He raised his left hand and turned the camera with a click, while adding: "Many people regard Aitaria as an information-based world that does not exist. They even regard it as a 'game'.
Have you ever heard of the fourth level of the game?"
Liuying was very resistant to the other party's strange talk, but he couldn't help but asked: "What is the fourth level?"
"Liver, ditch, face, touch."
"What the hell is that?"
"As the name suggests, the former is the extent to which people work hard for it. Of course, this effort is also different from person to person. After all, you have to admit that there are workaholics in this world who can really not sleep. If you only have eight hours a day,
If you are leveling up for 2 hours, it is very likely that it will not be as good as a madman who is leveling up for 16 hours a day."
Kaka replied matter-of-factly.
"This is not natural," the girl frowned and said, "So this is the liver. I probably understand it, but what about the last three?"
"Hao is easy to understand, right? Have you ever heard of rmt?"
"This concept is old enough." Liu Ying had heard of this saying. A long time ago, people called this behavior "RMB players".
"That's not necessarily the case. The real wealth can be transformed in Aitaria," Kaka replied: "Otherwise, where do you think the Grand Guild comes from? Realistic investment can also affect the world.
Of course, this depends on how entrenched you are."
"What about face and touch?"
"Touch means tentacle. It used to be used to describe a person's high level in a certain industry," Kaka said: "In short, it is the level of a genius, similar to you and me. But touch and
There is a difference between touch and touch, and you have to admit that there are always people in this world who are more talented than you."
"That's true." Liuying had already reacted to the other party's heresy, "I understand, the so-called face is luck, right?"
"Of course," Kaka nodded: "People often say that those who achieve one of the four realms can become a master, and those who achieve two of them can reach the top. Three of the four are often the most powerful ones in the history of Aitaria.
A shining new star—like the Ten Kings.”
"What about all four?" Six Shadows couldn't help but ask.
"Isn't that right in front of you?"
"Go away, you are talking nonsense."
Only then did the girl realize that she had successfully led the other party astray again. She gritted her teeth and asked, "I'm asking you if you have found it. Are you talking about this with me?"
Kaka then replied: "Well, it's not that easy. The other party may cover their ship. I guess it's probably through magic, but the Clockwork Fairy doesn't have the ability to detect magic. So it's useless to worry.
, we have to wait a while longer.”
Six Shadows thought that this was not what he was worried about. It was that he was not a combat craftsman, so he would not be of any use in such a situation. However, although his partner was a combat craftsman, the problem was that the other party looked unreliable at all.
"The other party used magic to cover his ship?" Six Shadows asked: "Then wouldn't it be difficult for you to find the other party?"
"That's not necessarily true," Kaka still shook his head: "The only possibility of covering such a large area is water mist. But water mist only refracts light, not true invisibility. Pictures recorded from different angles will have subtle differences.
Different, so as to discover each other.”
"With such a large-scale search, do you have the skills to compare them one by one?" There was a hint of doubt in Liu Ying's eyes, "I have never heard of combat craftsmen having any investigative skills. You shouldn't be there.
Are you lying to me?"
"Of course I can't do it," Kaka replied: "But someone can do it. We just need to collect the captured images to the information analysis center. There will be professionals there to screen the images, but there will be a certain lag.
Sex, but it’s enough for a big guy like Sailboat.”
At this time, he took off his goggles, looked at the other party and said, "You guys in the combat team rarely come into contact with the work process of the intelligence collection team. Have you benefited a lot?"
"You've benefited a lot from me," Liu Ying said angrily, "You're being lazy again."
"That's not true," Kaka shook his head and gestured with the goggles in his hand, with a bright light shining in his eyes: "It's just that I found them——"
