Chapter 1036: Quiet changes

Lei Xiao could clearly feel Duke's sudden change in attitude.

The originally solemn and solemn atmosphere in the living room quietly became a little more subtle.

I saw the other four leaders of the neutral forces, in shock, couldn't help but look at each other, and began to look at each other.

Since Sarah did not directly reveal her identity as a descendant of the Loren royal family, and her conversation with Duke was on point, it was obvious that the four of them did not understand what was going on.

After a while, only Bernie, the old president of the "Green Adventurers Guild", frowned and recalled the ring that Sarah had just shown, and a thoughtful look appeared in his wrinkled old eyes.

Although he is also an archaeologist, he has not personally explored the ancient Loren dynasty that collapsed thousands of years ago, but he has seen this kind of coat of arms that is said to represent the Loren royal family in the research notes of an old adventurer.

"His Royal Highness the Prince and Her Majesty the Queen both looked calm. They obviously understood the whole story. Is there some connection between them and the ancient dynasty that collapsed thousands of years ago?"

"Otherwise, if that golden ring is really a symbol of some kind, how did they know about it? Could it be that they personally explored the ruins of the ancient capital of Loren?

"If this is true, how did they find the ruins that only exist in legends?"

Thinking of this in his mind, a look of curiosity and surprise suddenly appeared in Bernie's slightly narrowed old eyes, as if he was seeing someone of the same mind.

As the president of the "Green Adventurers Guild", he was already extremely interested in ruins, and his obsession was comparable to that of Erza.

Originally, he thought that he and Lei Xiao and Ariel, who held the power of a country, could not have anything in common.

Now it seems that the young Prince and His Majesty Ariel have something to learn and seek advice from, whether it is ancient knowledge or exploration.

"President Bernie, if you are thinking about ruins and secret realms, maybe we can have a good chat if we have a chance."

Lei Xiao soon realized what the old president was thinking, smiled faintly, and immediately looked at Erza who was sitting next to him.

The latter immediately understood, and then said to the old president: "President Bernie, we are both well-known archaeologists in the Cold Flame Kingdom. You and I are old acquaintances. We have worked together to explore many ancient and forgotten places. A dusty place.”

"Whether it's the broken wall sculptures on the ruins, the hidden ruins of unknown temples, or the ancient magic traps full of dangers, they have all fascinated adventurers like you and me."

"But believe me, although we have known each other for nearly ten years, everything we have experienced is far less than what I have experienced with His Royal Highness the Prince and Her Majesty the Queen."

Although Erza's voice was not loud, it became increasingly impassioned.

"Do you believe it? Right under our noses, there is actually a winged human island in the ancient barrier area."

"Not only are the cities and buildings there well-preserved, you can even see many ancient winged humans who were petrified in the blank era."

"What exactly did they experience back then? How far has their civilization developed? Is their artistic style unique or influenced by other races?"

As Erza said this, she waved her hand casually, and some extremely exquisite small handicrafts and ceramic pots brought from the Winged Human Clan's barrier area appeared on the table one after another.

I saw those mottled objects that were completely different from human civilization, just placed there quietly, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, as if they were silently telling a once glorious time.

Some time ago, when sending Erza to explore the ruins, Lei Xiao had allowed her to take out some common ancient objects for research, so it was not surprising that these appeared.

"An intact ancient winged human race island city? In the archaeological history of human race countries, this is a major discovery that has never been made before!"

Bernie didn't know when he had put on a pair of loupes. His old eyes, which were magnified in the lenses, were wide open. He carefully observed the objects on the table, as if he was seeing the love of his life, and murmured: "Jin Wen" Master, did you bring these out from the ancient ruins of the Winged Human Race?"

Although Bernie used the interrogative sentence, he did not doubt the authenticity of the matter at all.

As an experienced adventurer and archaeologist, he could tell at a glance that these mottled but well-preserved items must come from the blank era.

Furthermore, Master Jinwen, who is the chief illusionist of the Leng Yan Palace, is also an extremely authoritative archaeologist and enjoys a high reputation in the industry. Naturally, it is impossible for him to make mistakes.

What shocked him the most was that each of these ancient objects, which would cause an uproar in the human archaeological world, was actually placed in front of him!

"President Bernie, these are just the tip of the iceberg that His Majesty has led me to explore."

Erza smiled, and a hint of mystery suddenly appeared on the face of the mature witch who had gone through the illusion. She raised her eyebrows and said: "If I say that His Highness the Prince took me to the Land of the Gods not long ago, would you believe it? "

"The land of the gods? The legendary entrance hall of the gods? Does it really exist?!"

Bernie's old eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, and his voice trembled due to excitement.

You must know that gods have always been the most enduring hot topic in the human archeology community, and the debate between theistic and atheistic sects has never stopped.

After all, what this word represents is a mysterious and transcendent supreme existence. How can it not make archaeologists yearn for it and go crazy?

Looking at the shocked expression on Bernie's old face, Erza smiled and said nothing, and just took out a small crystal ball.

This is a rare record crystal that has the same purpose as the fantasy crystal.

It's just that this thing is of a low level and can only record a short period of real-time footage and display it in the form of 3D projection when needed.

As Erza injected magic power, a 3D projection emerged through the crystal surface. What was recorded in it was a corner of the "City of Light", which was naturally within the scope allowed by Lei Xiao.

"This this…"

Looking at the beautiful architectural style on the screen that he had never seen before, but still like a fairyland, Bernie was so excited that he was speechless.

"President Burney, with the dignity and professional ethics of archaeologists as my guarantee, I assure you that His Highness the Prince has explored more secret places of ruins than what you have seen, and has even seen things that you cannot see at all. The imaginary people and objects, the understanding of the blank era and the gods are far beyond the scope of human archeology."

Erza put away the ancient artifacts and record crystals of the Winged Human Race, and a hint of determination appeared in her starry eyes, and continued: "Do you want to watch these epic-level major discoveries, with the five-pronged invasion?" Will the iron hooves of the army be annihilated again in the long river of history?"

"me…"

Bernie had obviously not recovered from the shock, and coupled with Erza's questioning, he instantly became a little overwhelmed.

Although he has not fully expressed his attitude, it is obvious from his old eyes that he has obviously lost the stubbornness and determination that he used to stubbornly choose neutrality.

Keenly aware of the other person's emotional changes, Lei Xiao, who had been paying attention to the overall situation, put down the tea cup in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly.

It seems that things went much smoother than expected.

Before he could show his courage, the "Jet Knights" had already been included under his command, and although the "Green Adventurers Guild" hadn't expressed its stance yet, they were already inseparable.

Looking at Bernie, who was obviously shaken, the remaining Blaise, Dinah and Carol looked even more embarrassed.

It's not because two forces have gradually deviated from the same front where they remained neutral, but because the prince in front of them is obviously much more mysterious than they imagined.

Perhaps, even though the current situation seems to be a dead game, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope in it?

And it is not difficult to hear from His Highness the Prince's words that if the Cold Flame Kingdom really survives the difficulties, they will surely follow the chickens and dogs to heaven.

After all, as the lord of another world, His Royal Highness's development speed is miraculous. This is no longer a secret.

Once even the Five Kingdoms are unable to do anything to the Cold Flame Kingdom, then it will probably be the Five Kingdoms that are unlucky.

But no matter what, judging from the current situation, the Cold Flame Kingdom has absolutely no hope of victory. Even if they join, what effect will it have?

"I understand your concerns, but there is a saying that goes like this: Sand can form a tower, armpits can form fur, and trickles can form a river. Although you are part of my plan to defend against the enemy, you are far from the whole story. .”

Lei Xiao shook the tea cup in his hand and smiled lightly.

"Your Highness, do you already have a plan in mind to resist the armies of the five countries?"

Dinah from the "Mirror Witches" blinked her long eyelashes and asked tentatively: "But they come from four directions, they are surrounded by enemies on all sides."

"It is true that a fierce tiger cannot defeat a pack of wolves. With my current strength, it is naturally impossible to defend against the enemy at the same time. However, there is no problem in concentrating our forces to attack in one direction."

Lei Xiao took a sip of the warm tea and said bluntly: "As long as the invading army in one direction is beaten and disabled, it will not be called an embarrassment on all sides. By then, the enemies in other directions can be defeated one by one. ."

"So, His Highness the Prince already has the means to prevent three attacks and one?"

Carol's smart starry eyes turned and immediately asked.

"Although it is not perfect, you are an indispensable force in it."

Lei Xiao put down the cup of tea without comment and responded: "This is exactly the reason why I am looking for you this time."

"I'm sorry to be presumptuous, but each of those four armies has almost a million people. It's easy to overthrow a country. Even the solid city and fortress can't stop it. How can His Majesty the Prince stop the three armies?"

Dinah crossed her arms and frowned slightly: "Your Highness, are these words a bit exaggerated?"

"Soldiers are deceitful. Since I was able to crush the fiefdoms of the fallen nobles all the way and make the three most powerful families surrender, I must have some little-known tricks."

The aura around Lei Xiao instantly rose a lot, causing Dinah, who knew that her words were too straightforward, to quickly lower her head.

Then, Lei Xiao's aura calmed down, and he smiled faintly again and said: "Jin Wen, tell this curious female president that some of our small tricks won't hurt."

Hearing the sound, Erza immediately understood. She first touched her chest and saluted Lei Xiao, and then raised her eyebrows and said: "President Dinah, you can be regarded as the leading illusion master in the Cold Flame Kingdom. I think the name of the Phantom Tribe should be Not unfamiliar, right?"

"Master Jinwen, do you mean the Phantom Clan?"

Dinah's starry eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly and said: "The Phantom Clan can be said to be the origin of illusionists, how could I not know this?"

"It's a pity that it is said that this ancient race, which even the gods once praised, has long been extinct in that mysterious blank era."

Having said this, Dinah lowered her eyebrows and sighed softly.

Just like what she said, the profession of illusionist did originate from the phantom clan that was once very friendly with the human race.

However, even after three thousand years of self-research and development, although the schools of illusionists of various races can be said to be blooming, they are nothing compared to the illusions of the real Phantom Tribe.

Therefore, the Phantom Spirit Clan, which can be called the originator, is naturally the ultimate yearning for all illusionists, and it is also the most sacred thing, just like recognizing an ancestor and returning to the clan.

"President Dinah, what if I say that one of His Highness's plans to stop the enemy is to get the full support of the Phantom Clan?"

Erza tilted her head and smiled.

"W-what!"

Dinah was shocked in her heart and stood up from her seat. She opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? The Phantom Clan has been destroyed for a long time."

Looking at Dinah's astonished white face, Erza did not respond. She just made an extremely complicated formation gesture towards Dinah, and then recited a series of lengthy and difficult-to-pronounce spells.

Of course, Erza did not directly release some kind of illusion, because the palace blessed by the mysterious magic circle was a restricted area for illusions, and even the fifth-level illusionist could not cast any spells.

"Is this the magic spell and formation technique of the Phantom Clan? Even the most authoritative magic book of illusion only has a few words. I didn't expect Master Jinwen to recite a whole paragraph. It's simply unbelievable."

Before Dinah, who looked stunned, could finish speaking, Erza's heart moved slightly, and a string of small gray-white bells appeared in her hand. They were the bells that Lei Xiao had used before.

"Is this the magical weapon of the Phantom Clan?!"

Dinah almost bent her body on the table, her starry eyes shrank slightly, staring at the object in Erza's hand across from her.

Although she didn't know the name of the Bell of Disturbance, the ancient words and curses engraved on the bell were exactly the same as other treasures of the Phantom Tribe recorded in ancient books!

In addition to being shocked, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Dinah understood clearly in her heart.

With the help of the Phantom Clan, resisting the army will be an easy task!

"President Dinah, if you join our team, you will have the opportunity to participate in the ancient phantom magic circle and become a member of the activating magic circle."

Erza put away the bell, raised her eyebrows and said: "Of course, if you perform well, as long as His Highness the Prince is happy, you may be able to get the opportunity to learn the magic of the phantom tribe, or even meet the phantom directly. clansman.”

After Erza finished speaking, although Dinah's red lips were slightly opened and she was so excited that she couldn't speak for a moment, the urgency in her starry eyes was already very obvious. (End of chapter)
