Hao Ren was extremely glad that he stayed in this city for one day and took the time to explore the Gorgon Abyss during that day, and found the last words of the Malkyri magician in the Gorgon Abyss, and
Learned about the existence of the "Tumen Empire" from his last words.
He vaguely realized that those seemingly messy clues were actually the most important things. What he came into contact with was the ultimate truth hidden in this mysterious world of Lahirion.
When he mentioned the words Tumen Empire and Inheritor, Grand Duke Owen, who was lying on the bed, did not answer immediately, but asked a question: "Are you here to participate in this change of era?"
Hao Ren looked into the old man's eyes and nodded solemnly: "Yes."
His face wasn't red, he wasn't out of breath, he even seemed to believe it himself.
This is the work attitude of an excellent prosecutor. Without the experience of messing around with his own God, he would never be able to quickly condense such a magnanimity.
Archduke Owen let out a sigh of relief and turned to the Charlemagne brothers and sisters: "I know, you brought something, now take it out."
Charlemagne frowned: "But such things must be done in the presence of His Majesty Berrentine or Her Majesty Constance..."
"Princess Constance will be here soon," Archduke Owen interrupted Charlemagne, and slightly raised his head to look at the silver-haired woman standing next to him, "Ginny, you can ask Her Royal Highness to come over."
The silver-haired woman named "Ginny" nodded slightly, and then her eyelids slowly closed. Her muscles all over her body relaxed, and her body showed a state of complete stasis. After a few seconds, Hao
Ren heard a slight sound coming from her body, like the sound of electricity and mechanical friction coming from some device.
The temperament of the silver-haired woman completely changed at that moment. The gentle and slightly dull temperament before turned into a majestic and existential aura. Her eyelids trembled twice, and when she opened them again, her eyes
It has become fierce.
"First time we meet, I'm Constance." She looked at Hao Ren and his entourage and nodded slightly in greeting.
Then she looked at the Charlemagne brothers and sisters: "This is the second time I've met you, guests from across the world."
"Uh-oh," Lily prolonged her tone and let out an exaggerated sigh. After a brief moment of surprise, she immediately understood what had happened, "Are you a ghost...ahem, consciousness transfer? Or is it a soul link or something?
thing?"
"It's the same technology as the Black Sword Knights, right?" Hao Ren saw it more clearly than Lily. When "Ginny" closed her eyes, he detected a large number of signal links suddenly appearing on her body.
Before this link was established, the woman had always shown signs of wireless communication with the outside world. "If I guessed correctly, you have been looking at the situation in the room through this woman's eyes just now?"
"As you said, it is just a consciousness transmission technology, and it is not a profound knowledge for the inheritors." Princess Constance nodded slightly, "I'm sorry that I can only meet you in this form. The situation on the front line is not the same.
Optimistic, there are still mutated black sword knights attacking the position from time to time. Although we have found a way to deal with them, someone must be here to guard it."
As she spoke, she turned her eyes left and right to take in a panoramic view of the entire room. Since the corrupt power in Archduke Owen had been purified by Leah, the original abnormal sense of darkness in the room also disappeared. The remaining sacred power made this place even more...
It is brighter and cleaner than other normal rooms: "Although I guessed that you were also inheritors when I heard your deeds in the black pine forest, I didn't expect that you would have such strong power. In this way, the change of the era will be easier."
There is more hope.”
"Excuse me..." Evana finally couldn't help but speak, "What does the change of era mean?"
When Hao Ren heard Evana ask this question, he immediately felt relieved: Damn it, he was worried about how to ask before...
After all, when I pretended to have everything under control, my acting was too realistic. After I was fooled, I had to face the dilemma of "appearing to be as stable as Lily but actually panicking". I couldn't understand a lot of questions but couldn't find the right opportunity to ask them.
The exit is the most troublesome situation for investigators, but fortunately there are brother and sister Charlemagne at the scene. The two brothers and sisters do not seem to be any worse than themselves...
"Does Ys really not know the details?" Princess Constance frowned slightly, but then she was relieved, "It doesn't matter. Take out the things you brought, which you were originally planning to present to my father.
"
Charlemagne and Evanna looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Then they each took out an exquisite silver dagger from their own space container, and cut their fingers without hesitation, and then pressed their bleeding fingers on the amulet hanging on their chests.
.
"Archive Administrator, No. C-335 (No. C-336)," the brother and sister spoke in unison, but they did not chant any spells, but said a password that looked like a power-on key, "Synchronized authentication, identification
The information has been submitted and you are applying to open the vault."
Hao Ren looked at the brother and sister in surprise, who had always kept secret about their missions along the way, and saw that the amulets on their chests began to become brighter at the same time. The amulets were originally used to inspire the special "royal crest" on their bodies.
, but now it seems that they obviously have a greater role: as the two talismans were activated simultaneously, Hao Ren felt that the space around the brother and sister suddenly began to distort, and soon, a seemingly invisible figure emerged from mid-air.
It was a silver-white ball with a radius of more than one meter, like mercury. As honeycomb-like patterns appeared on the surface of the ball and peeled off layer by layer, a long platinum staff finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
This platinum staff is the treasure that Charlemagne and his sister escorted across thousands of mountains and rivers from Ys to the Dragon Empire?
Hao Ren couldn't help but look at the long platinum staff a few more times. It didn't matter if he didn't look at it. At first glance, he couldn't help but have a strange feeling, as if he had seen this long staff somewhere else.
The flowing water-like patterns and the carvings depicting the sun, moon and stars are all very familiar.
He immediately raised his shoulders: "Terminal, compare."
"No need to compare, it is the platinum scepter in the hands of the Holy King of Hersonga in the illusion of the black pine forest," the voice of the data terminal sounded in his mind, "The appearance is 100% consistent, the energy fluctuations are also consistent, and it is authentic.
"
Hao Ren couldn't help being slightly surprised, but he didn't show his surprise at all: before he knew the function of this scepter, it was best not to express his thoughts rashly.
The Charlemagne brothers were stunned for a while after seeing the platinum scepter, and then each looked thoughtful. Apparently they also saw that this scepter was similar to the one they had seen in the black pine forest illusion.
They were exactly the same, and it was also the first time they saw the true appearance of the thing they were escorting.
"It seems that you kept your promise and didn't open the vault before coming here," Constance also spoke at this moment. She saw the surprise on the faces of Charlemagne and her sister, and she guessed something.
, "From the looks of it, have you seen this governing scepter elsewhere?"
"It was in the Black Pine Forest..." Evana replied, "We experienced a 'phantom' in the Black Pine Forest. An ancient queen held this scepter. She was called the Holy King..."
"Ah, that should be the echo of Hersonga," Constance sighed softly, "May that king rest in peace soon. She has persisted in this broken world for too long."
Charlemagne couldn't help but step forward: "Excuse me, what is this..."
Constance interrupted before the other party could say anything: "Do you know the function and significance of this scepter?"
Charlemagne and Evanna looked at each other and then shook their heads. The expressions on their faces were equally confused.
"Then you probably don't know about the alternation and annihilation of eras."
The brother and sister still shook their heads.
Constance looked at them quietly, with neither ridicule nor contempt in her tone, but just asked calmly: "Then why did you know you were coming here and handed the things in the vault to me?
?”
"Our father suddenly summoned us to the inner court and gave us this mission," Evana replied honestly. In front of this "colleague princess" who was more powerful than herself in every aspect,
She couldn't help but feel weak, "He even seemed to have foreseen the civil strife in the Dragon Empire, and told us that if there are enemies in the imperial capital, they will go find you."
"But he didn't explain it in detail," Charlemagne went on, "and I think..."
"You think even your father doesn't fully understand why he did this, do you?" Constance took over Charlemagne's words and sighed slightly, "Just like my father said to me, inheritance will last forever.
will gradually be cut off, the dynasty has no eternity, the gods will die, the Holy Spirit will die, the sages and dragons will die, the reshaping of the world will continue to strip away those memories and knowledge, even if there is an eternal soul. In the end, we all
We will live blindly and ignorantly, and carry out this war driven by ancient obsessions that even we ourselves do not understand the meaning of. The immortals will eventually become walking corpses, and that is the price of eternal life..."
Charlemagne and Evana were both confused, but Hao Ren's heart skipped a beat after hearing the words "reshaping the world":
Damn it, Princess Constance knows the world has been reshaped!
Not only does she know it, but her father also knows it!
And listen to the meaning between the lines... They have known "reshaping the world" more than once? Otherwise, the word "continuous stripping" would not be used in those words!
In other words, they even know how this universe was once destroyed by the Crazy Lord!
"Sorry, this must be difficult for you to understand," Constance's sigh did not continue. She noticed the confusion on the faces of Charlemagne and her sister, and shook her head slightly, "In the state of consciousness transmission, some
Subconscious thoughts will be more difficult to control, and I have become more emotional than usual. Now let's get back to the normal rhythm. First... let's talk about the fact that our world was once destroyed."
