Chapter 428: Legacy from Mother

"I don't know." Gavin spread his hands helplessly and said, "I haven't seen my mother since I was a child, and I don't know her origins. I used to think she was dead, but now I'm not even sure about this. I can't be sure whether she is related to the mystery. Snowel is related. I only know that she had been in and out of Mir Forest before giving birth to me.”

As for Gavin's age, it cannot be used as a reason at all.

Because a century is several generations for short-lived races, but for elves, it is only one-sixth of life.

It’s possible that Gavin’s mother was an aboriginal from Misnoel.

Could it be that his mother's identity was unusual, that she belonged to the royal family of Mis Noel?

In fact, Gavin is quite shy about his mother's affairs now and is unwilling to investigate further. Who knows what kind of big thunder is buried behind it?

But the problem is, destiny is sometimes so mysterious that it will push you forward without even realizing it.

The Goliaths had no intention of delving into Gavin's non-answer.

Especially Carissa said with an understanding look: "Since we have no clue in this aspect, let's not dwell on this issue anymore. Anyway, this issue is not important to us at the moment. What is important is what should we do. I personally think that we should try it. If it is a trap, it does not need to be so complicated. As long as the door is tightly closed, a thunderbolt, or a dissociation or instant death spell is enough. I believe these will not be difficult for this crystal tower. "

"That makes sense." Gavin nodded in agreement.

This giant crystal tower must have the ability to be similar to the mage tower. If it can completely keep the enemy out, why would it take time and effort to introduce it?

Especially the Festering Mystery Lock, which keeps prying eyes out.

If they didn't have the roots of the gods, they wouldn't be able to get in at all.

Well, that's not right either.

Will the identity of this successor be effective not only for the Crystal Tower, but also for the Festering Mystery Lock?

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to verify this issue.

Otherwise, some things will be easier to infer.

"That is to say, you smart people are struggling here. If you ask me, there are so many good things to think about. Just go in and see what the reaction is. If you are worried, I will go in first." Eglas nicknamed himself The fearless side is displayed vividly.

He took big steps and walked into the crystal tower.

But judging from the tight muscles all over his body, he was not defenseless. As long as anything went wrong in the crystal tower, he would jump out of it immediately.

The giant crystal tower showed no reaction, neither rejection nor new changes. Only the elf female voice repeated the previous words over and over again.

"Hahaha..." Chief Qunshan laughed excitedly as if he had completed a great challenge, "Look, you guys, it's okay. You all can come in."

"He is worthy of the title of fearless as the boldest man in my mountain tribe."

"Chief, you have completed another challenge that we dare not challenge."

"I think the stubborn stone can be completely removed. From now on, we can just call the chief the fearless, or the fearless one."

"I think it's okay."

"I think it's appropriate too."

Many Goliaths responded to the call of Chief Fearless Stone and walked into the crystal tower one after another. At the same time, they praised his actions just now, causing a blush to appear on Fearless Stone's blue-gray face and his smooth head. sparkling with light.

As a relatively cautious person, Gavin was somewhat stunned. Could this kind of thing also serve as a challenge?

No wonder the average lifespan of Goliaths is so low. It is probably inseparable from their death-seeking, nay, adventurous lifestyle.

As if she could understand Gavin's feelings, Carissa smiled at him and said: "Don't be surprised, this is our way of survival. Only by having the courage to face challenges can we survive in the complicated life in the mountains."

"Have you ever considered living under the mountains? There is a large area of ​​fertile soil there. Even in the Mir Forest, it is easier to survive than in the mountains." Gavin couldn't help but ask.

"Is Goliath still Goliath after leaving the mountains?" Carissa asked.

"This..." Facing this rather philosophical question, Gavin was speechless.

"Don't think that what I'm talking about is purely psychological problems, there are also physical ones." Carissa said with a serious expression, "Goliaths who have been away from the mountains for a long time are prone to illness. There is no medicine that can cure trough disease. Return to the mountains to live and accept the purification of the mountains. Otherwise, over time, they will degenerate and lose the abilities given to them by the mountains. The children they give birth to will no longer be blessed by the mountains. After three generations, they will only be tall humans. In the end, there will be no tall people, and we will be completely integrated into the human race, because we, Goliaths, are humans who have the courage to climb mountains and have received the blessings of the mountains.”

"That's it." Gavin suddenly realized, "Your explanation has solved my biggest doubt. No wonder it is rare to see a large number of Goliaths in other places except high mountains."

Carissa's explanation may sound a bit unbelievable at first, but after careful consideration, it turns out to be the most reasonable.

In earth terms, the genetic chains of most races in the multiverse are unstable.

This instability makes them less segregated, with all kinds of regular, unconventional, and even bizarre mixed-race people everywhere.

At the same time, it also makes them susceptible to the influence of the external environment and powerful creatures, resulting in mutations.

This kind of mutation is not only malignant, but also benign, which makes them more powerful and gives them super adaptability to adapt to various extreme environments and survive.

Goliath is the light one.

There are also fire dwarves living on the edge of magma and the plane of fire, whose ancestors are also dwarves.

Sea elves living in the ocean and lakes are elves forced to move into the ocean.

There are countless such cases in Feren.

In fact, the above examples are all far away.

Gavin has such a situation around him, and he is the one who caused it - the dog-headed people in the Dragon Oak Territory.

The mutation of genetic bloodline is light and heavy. Humans are relatively light, and dog-headed people are more serious, especially when affected by dragons.

Not only those dog-headed people born in the Dragon Oak Mother Tree tend to be refined, but even those who have lived there for a long time have begun to show similar signs.

But once these creatures leave the environment that makes them more unique, it won’t take long for them to become ordinary creatures again.

"Are you two still worried? Come in quickly. We are useless alone. There is no reaction here." Chief Eglas called.

"In order to determine who has the problem, why don't we take turns." Gavin suggested.

"Good idea." Kaylissa did not refuse.

"Ladies, please."

"There is no need for courtesy in this matter. Then I will not be polite." Kaylissa walked in with her long legs. After walking around the crystal hall, she walked out while shaking her head and said, "I said, it's not me..."

"Don't worry, touch the crystal column in the middle. That is the most likely place to have a problem." Gavin suggested outside the door.

"Okay." Kaylissa did not doubt him, walked up directly, stretched out her hand and touched it, and there was no reaction at all.

Gavin took a long breath. It seems that the problem is really with him. It is a blessing, not a disaster. If it is a disaster, it cannot be avoided. He wants to see if he still has an incredible hidden life experience that he could not find in his previous life.

The first time Gavin stepped into the Crystal Tower, this question had a positive answer.

Because the words of the elven female voice that kept repeating changed, becoming "Please ask the heir to go to the control room of the Tower of Domination and obtain all permissions."

At the same time, the crystal column in the center of the Crystal Hall lit up a faint light, and the situation was self-evident, as if beckoning Gavin to touch him.

"Hahaha... There is nothing to worry about now. The problem lies with you, sir. It seems that your mother is not ordinary. She may be a royal family of Misnoel. We will have the honor to witness the restart of Misnoel today."

"Sir, please, this is something only you can do."

All the Goliaths turned slightly and their eyes fell on Gavin.

Wherever he passed, the Goliaths involuntarily made way for him.

In this situation, Gavin couldn't help but feel a sense of heroism. He was no longer timid. He walked quickly to the crystal column and reached out to press it.

Swish!

Another door opened, but this door was not made of solid crystal. It seemed that a hole was opened directly on it, and the part of the crystal belonging to the door disappeared.

The crystal column was also hollow and not large, just like a large elevator.

Under the gaze of a group of Goliaths, Gavin could not hesitate and walked in.

There was a cheer behind him. Without listening carefully, he knew that the Goliaths were praising his bravery.

Just as Gavin completely stepped into the crystal column, the disappeared crystal door reappeared, separating him from the Goliaths outside.

He could see the Goliaths outside. Chief Eglas and Kaelissa rushed up at the first time, as if they wanted to reopen the door, but there was no response.

The former even swung his large battle axe and chopped it on the crystal column.

As a result, a luster filled with magic runes suddenly lit up on the crystal column. The crystal column did not even have a single cut mark, but his large battle axe was almost knocked out of his hand by the recoil.

Just as Gavin expected, this unique building was enchanted and not as fragile as it looked.

Chief Eglas wanted to attack, but was stopped by Kaelissa.

Gavin didn't know what happened next.

Because countless runes lit up on the inner wall of the entire crystal column, and when Gavin came to his senses again, he was already in another room.

Teleportation array.

There was a teleportation array inside the crystal column.

Just one glance.

Gavin was 100% sure that he was now at the top of the crystal tower, in the room that looked like a crystal ball.

This room was ten meters in diameter, and except for a platform in the middle that could accommodate about one person and a gem, it was also empty.

Like other places in the crystal tower, it was transparent from the inside out, and the scenery was extremely unique. You could see the clear sky above, and you could look down at the misty low clouds surrounding the crystal tower. Going down, you could see the whole picture of Misnoel.

The only thing that was not beautiful was that this beautiful elven city was tainted, and most things were in a black and gray state.

After looking around, Gavin's eyes finally locked on the gem, or more accurately, half of the gem.

The gem is in the shape of a teardrop, and in its complete state it is at least as big as a baby's fist, but now it is neatly divided into two halves from the middle.

It is not placed on a crystal platform, but suspended on it, slowly rotating, with flowing light. At a glance, it is obvious that it is not just an ordinary gem, but a powerful magical item.

In front of it, there is a feeling of being invisible.

Gavin only took a step towards half of the gem.

The complete side of the gem suddenly turned towards Gavin, a ray of light shot out, and a female elf phantom appeared in front of Gavin.

Even among elves, the appearance of this elf phantom is outstanding, but the most unique thing about her is that she has a graceful and intellectual aura.

Gavin is sure that he has never seen this person before, but he sees a familiar shadow in her, especially between her eyebrows and face shape, and he always feels like he has seen her somewhere.

Until he saw his own reflection on the crystal wall.

Isn't her appearance 30% or 40% similar to his own?

Could it be that...
