The elder Wharton was a flame dragon, a dragon that had lived for more than two thousand years, and he had even fought the Emperor of Light, Garanlot, in the city of Arantis when he was younger.

The experience accumulated over the years is wisdom, and Aretha was guessed when she entered the Dragon Cave.

Aretha smiled and said, "Can't I come to see your old friend?"

Old Wharton snorted softly in his nostrils, "If it weren't for something that couldn't be solved, wouldn't you come to see me, an old dragon who is waiting to die?"

"I still can't hide anything from you. Aretha told the old dragon in detail about the recent situation of the Norman kingdom and the strange attitude of the kingdom.

The old dragon pondered for a while before he said slowly: "You are very smart, it is not strange that sea beasts are wreaking havoc, those little guys have to make a fuss every once in a while. As for the strange attitude of your Terran kingdom, it is also easy to understand, because of the benefits, the Norman royal family will definitely be able to get enough benefits from this beast tide. ”

Arisha glanced at Lao Long, "Of course I know that there are interests in it, I want to know what kind of interests it is, let me just spy on the periphery, and then attract the pursuit of the Kingdom Governor's Office." ”

"I haven't left the ancestral island for many years, how do I know what your Terran royal family is going to do?"

"Aren't you the wisest dragon? Looks like I'm looking for the wrong person!"

"Little girl, your method is useless to the old dragon. Old Wharton actually showed a smile on his huge dragon head, "I don't know what the Norman royal family wants, but I can give you a guess." ”

"What speculation?"

"Your human race has always been rumored to have foreign blood in the Norman royal family, do you know which foreign bloodline?"

Aretha shook her head.

"I can tell you unequivocally that the legend is true, the Norman royal family's alien blood originates from the Sea Clan! Not only the Norman royal family, but the largest noble lords of your Norman kingdom all have alien blood. Alien ancestry is generally invisible and difficult for ordinary people to detect. But the Norman royal family has a way to detect bloodlines, and all the children of nobles who are found to have foreign blood will be sent to the Nutao Academy to study and cultivate since they were young, which is the real reason why the Nutao Academy is far away on the island but is regarded as a forbidden by the Norman royal family, and it is also the reason why you go to Nutao Island to spy but attract the royal family to hunt down. ”

Aretha was surprised, "Aren't the Sea Clans legends? no one has ever seen them?"

"Just because I haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and I fought with the people of the Sea Clan when I was young! The territory of the Sea Clan is even farther away at the bottom of the deep sea, because its people are not known to the intelligent races on the continent from the sea and land. ”

Aretha and Arthur were all shocked by the news, it turns out that there is an unknown intelligent race hidden in this world!

The old dragon continued to speak slowly, "There is also a legend that can confirm the existence of the Sea Clan. It has always been rumored on the mainland that there are eight wonder cities in this world, except for the four existing ones on the mainland, the other four basically don't even know their names, and I just know one of them, the city of the Sea Clan 'Azure Crystal Palace'"

Aretha was slightly relieved in shock, "You said that this sea beast ravage and the strange behavior of the royal family have something to do with the sea clan?"

Old Wharton shook the huge dragon head, "I don't know, I'm just telling the boldest guess, and I hope my guess is wrong!"

Aretha asked, "Why?"

The old dragon didn't want to continue to explain, "If it doesn't happen, it doesn't matter, if it really happens, you will naturally know at that time." ”

Aretha knew the temper of this old dragon, so she didn't ask any more questions, but changed the topic and said, "Since you haven't been out for many years, do you want to go around the mainland with me?"

Arthur didn't know what Aretha's purpose was, but he actually moved to pull the old Wharton into his mind.

However, Aretha was simply rejected by the old dragon, "Now that you have seen me, don't disturb me to continue sleeping, and leave as soon as possible if there is nothing else." ”

There was one more thing that was not done, and of course Aretha would not leave there, but suddenly reminded the elder Wharton, "Do you remember? ”

Old Wharton snorted, "If it weren't for that favor back then, would I have told you so much? Don't be clever in front of me, say, what else do you want?"

"You truly deserve to be the wisest of the dragons. Aretha first complimented the old dragon, "Then I'll be blunt, I want an ice dragon's dragon crystal!"

Arthur on the side was shocked again, he didn't expect that what Aretha asked for him was such a precious thing, the value of a dragon crystal was even higher than some space equipment, and he also named the dragon crystal of the ice dragon.

"You're with a dragon to ask for something from the dragons!" said old Wharton to his feet, letting out a roaring roar that spewed out a few wisps of fire from his mouth.

For the old dragon's anger, Aretha still had a grinning expression, and there was no fear at all, "Don't be so angry, we can discuss it again!"

"This matter is not negotiable, your human race is too greedy, and that little favor back then is definitely not worth the dragon crystal of my dragon clan!"

"I never told you to give me a dragon crystal for nothing, and in consideration I was willing to go to the Forsaken Swamp for you. ”

As soon as Aretha mentioned the abandoned swamp, old Wharton instantly paused like a deflated ball, "Do you really want to go?

"Back then, Keynes and I were reluctant to go because the two of us had just advanced to the rank of general, and even if we wanted to help you, it wasn't enough, but now I want to give it a try. ”

"As long as you can go to the Forsaken Swamp and find Hygil, I promise you an Ice Dragon's Crystal. ”

"No, you'll have to pay upfront, and even if you can find Hygil, I don't guarantee she'll leave with me. ”

It seems that Aretha really grabbed the lifeblood of old Wharton, and old Wharton only hesitated for a moment and compromised, "Okay, I believe in your promise." You help me bring this to her, and it's up to her to choose what she wants. ”

The old dragon poked out a huge dragon claw, and between the claws there was a small magic pendant and a huge blue dragon crystal.

Arthur didn't expect things to be so easy, a piece of dragon crystal, so easy to get it. And this old dragon must have space magic equipment on it, because Arthur and Ben didn't see where he took these two things from.

Aretha stepped forward to collect the magic pendant and dragon crystal, "If I make it out of the abandoned swamp alive, I'll tell you everything about Hygil." ”

As soon as Arthur and Aretha left the Ancestral Island, they couldn't wait to ask, "Who is that Hygiel you are talking about, and why does that old dragon care so much?"

Aretha sighed softly, "It's also a bad fate, I'll tell you more when I have the opportunity." ”

"So where are we going now? Abandon the swamp?"

Aretha glanced at Arthur, "With your low strength, you still want to abandon the swamp? ”
