Chapter 591 Are you my master?
Deep underground in the palace,
Dalia pushed open the door and walked into this well-protected room, hanging the oil lamp in her hand on the wall beside her.
The faint yellow light dispelled the darkness around the girl's body, but it could not illuminate the entire room. It was still dark outside the range of the light.
In this deep room, darkness quietly enveloped every inch of space like a silent guardian. The dim light seemed to be the farthest star in the night sky, but it could only barely outline a corner of the room. The rest was still immersed in the boundless darkness, which seemed both mysterious and profound.
The room was vast and boundless, as if it could swallow all the sounds and lights, making people feel insignificant and lonely involuntarily. Who would have known that there was such a mysterious place here in the underground of the palace.
The walls around the room were as smooth as a mirror, without paintings or carvings, only a monotonous and cold plane, reflecting the light and shadow of the weak lights, but further highlighting the emptiness and loneliness of this space. These walls seem to isolate all the noise from the outside world, making this place an isolated and independent world.
The floor of the entire room is a huge blue stone slab. Unlike the walls of the room, the surface of the blue stone slab is not completely smooth. The wind and frost of the years have left mottled marks on it. Some places have fallen into deep dark colors, recording the flow of time in the past.
But the most eye-catching thing in this room is the huge and complicated magic array engraved on the blue stone slab.
It occupies most of the area of the stone slab. The array pattern is intricate, like the tangled roots of trees in nature, and like the intertwined star tracks in the night sky. It appears chaotic and disordered, but also contains some indescribable harmony and beauty.
Under the illumination of the lights, each array pattern emits a faint fluorescence. Although it is weak, it outlines a magnificent and mysterious picture in the dark, which makes people feel awe for this ancient power.
In front of Dahlia, this room is like a secret place forgotten by time, quietly waiting for someone who can interpret its secrets.
"Alas~"
Dahlia sighed softly and looked at the room in front of her with a heavy heart.
This basement is the biggest secret of the entire palace, or the entire Cardiff Kingdom.
Outside this basement, there are various magical protective barriers and traps left over from countless years ago. It is the most strictly protected place in the palace, much stricter than the bedroom of Queen Dahlia.
Touching the pattern of the huge magic circle on the bluestone slab, Dahlia murmured to herself with a rough feeling:
"Is this the door that the ancestors came here through countless years ago?"
"Is the real Gaia world really so vast and has so many powerful people?"
Dahlia didn't know the answer to the question. These are the most critical secrets that are not recorded in any documents but passed down by word of mouth from each king.
Perhaps it is for this reason that after countless years of inheritance, most of the information, except for the most critical information, has become blurred or lost.
Dahlia only knew that the only way to leave the world they lived in was the huge magic circle under her feet.
Although Dahlia was also a mage, she had no way to activate the magic circle in front of her.
According to the records left by her ancestors, only those who could open this magic circle independently could have the qualification to go to the Gaia world.
Dahlia learned from her father that the royal family of the Kingdom of Cardiff seemed to have come from the Gaia world to the small world where the Kingdom of Cardiff was located in order to avoid disaster.
Without sufficient strength, going to the Gaia world was just a delusion.
If you can't open this teleportation array alone, you can only stay in this small world of the safe haven.
However, this safe haven doesn't seem to be very stable now.
Dahlia thought of the quarrel between the ministers in the palace just now, and she couldn't help but have a headache.
The Duke of Pao they were talking about was the guardian duke of the southern part of the Kingdom of Cardiff, and one of the most powerful people in the Kingdom of Cardiff.
Because the Brun Mountains in the south of the kingdom have various rare magic metals and magic gems, but also because the magic concentration in the Brun Mountains is quite high, it also breeds a large number of magic beasts.
In order to resist the waves of magic beasts in the Brun Mountains, the southern part of the kingdom has been the most troublesome area for many years.
However, after the appearance of Duke Pao, this situation has changed greatly.
Julian Pao, the new head of the Duke Pao family, is quite powerful. Although he is only forty years old, he is almost the strongest in the entire Cardiff Kingdom.
In addition, the Duke Pao's methods are also quite sophisticated.
On the one hand, he used the development of magic metals and gem veins in the Brun Mountains as a starting point to bring together most of the noble families in the south of the kingdom to form a coalition to jointly deal with the waves of magic beasts in the mountains.
On the other hand, he asked the Cardiff royal family for help, while secretly accumulating strength in the mountains.
When the situation in the southern part of the kingdom was completely stabilized and the monsters in the Brun Mountains no longer posed a threat, the kingdom suddenly discovered that Duke Pao's power had become quite powerful and even threatened the kingdom's rule.
The nobles in the southern part of the kingdom gathered around Duke Pao because they had gained a lot of benefits from their previous cooperation with Duke Pao, and defeating the monster wave in the Brun Mountains brought Duke Pao a lot of prestige.
In a sense, the Duke of Pao has more prestige in the southern part of the kingdom than the Cardiff royal family.
Therefore, the Cardiff royal family has noticed the problem of the Duke of Pao, but because the Duke of Pao still maintains open respect for the royal family, they are worried that a random attack on him will cause turmoil in the kingdom, so the royal family can't do anything about the Duke of Pao in a short time.
Originally, the Cardiff royal family was preparing a plan against the Duke of Pao, but at this critical moment, the former king, Dahlia's father, suddenly died of a serious illness.
After Dahlia inherited the throne and stabilized the situation in the capital, the Duke of Pao showed his fangs at this time.
Not only did he deploy the army in the sensitive area facing the kingdom, but he also spoke rudely to the messenger of the kingdom, saying that he wanted to marry Dahlia.
This is why the ministers were so angry just now.
In this regard, Dahlia felt a little tired while being angry.
If possible, she did not want to become Her Majesty the Queen of the Kingdom of Cardiff, but to be a simple apprentice of a wizard. Immersing herself in the study of magic was the happiest thing for her.
But the former king had only her as a child, and she was the only one who could inherit the entire Kingdom of Cardiff.
Although there had been queens in the Kingdom of Cardiff, it was the first one like Dahlia who faced such a bad situation.
Ever since Dahlia heard about this secret basement called "Gate of the World" from the old king, her expectations for the so-called Gaia world had never dissipated.
But for so many days, no matter how she tried, she could not successfully activate this huge magic circle.
Even so, when Dahlia was upset, she would often come here to rest for a while.
Since becoming the Queen of the Kingdom of Cardiff, Dahlia had hardly had a good rest, and more and more things appeared in front of her waiting for her to deal with.
This kind of life was extremely boring.
Dahlia rubbed her temples, and then looked at the huge magic circle in front of her.
She sat on the ground, stroking the pattern of the magic circle with her right hand, and the magic power in her body slowly flowed into the magic circle.
As Dahlia injected magic power, the pattern of the magic circle under her hand also became slightly brighter.
This is not that the magic circle has been activated. Dahlia, who has tried many times, knows that this is still a long way from activating the entire magic circle.
She is just injecting magic power to activate the magic circle while constantly exploring the magic circle and trying to understand it as soon as possible.
If this teleportation array can be opened, you can enter a wider world, right?
Dahlia looked at the magic circle in front of her and smiled self-deprecatingly.
Am I shirking my responsibility?
Just when Dahlia was about to calm down and study the magic circle in front of her, something strange happened.
Boom!
As the inexplicable roar sounded, the entire magic circle seemed to be awakened, and suddenly became bright, illuminating every corner of the room.
The light was not the light of an ordinary lamp, but it was accompanied by an indescribable magic, scorching and dazzling, as if it could penetrate all darkness and fog. Each carefully carved array pattern appears vivid under the illumination of this light. They are no longer static patterns, but seem to have life, flowing with terrifying and powerful magic.
This magic is running wildly in the magic circle, like surging waves, and like a violent storm, making the air in the whole room tremble. There is a palpitating breath in the air, which is the shock brought by the magic power.
Dahlia stood up in shock, and hurriedly stepped back a few steps to look at the magic circle that suddenly "came alive".
What is going on?
Did I accidentally open this magic circle?
Dahlia quickly denied this guess, because the terrifying magic emanating from the magic circle in front of her was not something she could reach at all.
The terrifying momentum emanating from the teleportation array made Dahlia feel like she was facing a towering mountain, and she could not have any idea of resistance at all.
As a dazzling white light lit up, Dahlia couldn't help but close her eyes.
Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Book_bar first published this novel.
After a moment, she felt the light dissipate, and then she opened her eyes and looked forward cautiously.
This is the biggest secret of the Kingdom of Cardiff, and no accidents can happen.
Right in front of Dahlia, in the center of the entire huge magic circle, a handsome young man suddenly appeared.
His neat black short hair set off his handsome face, making Dahlia feel as if she appeared at the noble party in the capital, and saw a handsome and elegant noble inviting her to dance.
The black-haired boy also looked at Dahlia, stretched out his hand to her and said:
"Are you my master?"
"Yeah?"
Dahlia subconsciously stretched out her hand, and then reacted.
"Who are you?"
Faced with the girl's question, Li Si withdrew his hand with some regret.
He still wanted to play a role-playing game, but he quickly reacted when he saw the girl in front of him.
Li Si's eyes stayed on Dahlia for a moment, and he almost sensed the girl's strength.
He was almost a gold-level mage, but his aura was much weaker than that of an average gold-level mage.
However, in the small world owned by the fallen kingdom, having this kind of strength was already quite good.
When Li Si was strolling in the holy city of Amandu of the Church of the God of War, he got a ruby brooch at the Adventurer's Market, and later found that it was a key to open the passage to the small world.
It happened that Li Si was planning to break through the legendary level. His legendary level breakthrough task was [One Person Breaks the Army], which required defeating an army of extraordinary people, and Li Si thought of this place.
A small world with a long history, with the inheritance of the ancient human kingdom, it is very likely that there is a ready-made army of extraordinary people inside.
The door of the small world corresponding to the key is very close to Li Si. It is a matter of convenience. Li Si certainly cannot leave a small world of high value alone.
The most important thing is that this small world has been closed for a long time. Li Si does not have to worry about interference from external forces. If he can complete the breakthrough task, it is also safe to break through the legend in this small world.
Of course, Li Si has also made plans for no extraordinary army in the small world.
If it really doesn't work, return to the Kingdom of Feis to find the target, or wait seven days to re-draw the task.
"My name is Li Si, an outsider."
Li Si looked at Dahlia in front of him and said with a smile.
Looking at the luxurious clothes on Dahlia, he guessed that she should be a noble in this world, right?
"Outsider?"
"Are you from Gaia World?"
Dahlia heard this and thought of something and asked Li Si.
"You know Gaia World, so it seems that the inheritance has not been cut off."
Faced with Li Si's straightforward answer, Dahlia was slightly happy, but she did not relax her vigilance.
What she was happy about was that this teleportation array could really be opened, which meant that she really had the opportunity to go to the so-called Gaia World.
What she was afraid of was that she didn't know whether Li Si in front of her was an enemy or a friend. He could open the teleportation array that she tried her best but couldn't activate. The other party must be stronger than her.
Stepping back slightly, taking out the staff and holding it in her hand, Dahlia looked at Li Si in front of her and thought about how to ask.
"Don't be so vigilant."
Li Si looked at the girl in a fighting stance, shook his head and said with a smile:
"It seems that your status is not low. Can you tell me if there is a legendary crown here?"
Legend?
Listening to Li Si's words, Dahlia was a little confused. Is it the existence comparable to gods recorded in the classics?
I heard that even in the Gaia world, the legendary crown is an absolute strong man. How could there be such a small world in the Kingdom of Cardiff?
Dahlia is even very sure that since the ancestors entered this small world, no legendary strongman has appeared, otherwise this teleportation array would have been opened long ago.
Looking at Dahlia's appearance, Li Si understood.
"If there is no legend."
Li Si looked at Dahlia and said with a smile like a villain:
"Then this small world is mine!"
