François walked in front like a walking corpse, completely unaware that he was followed by four men and a cat.

François was not so much walking as he was walking in the void.

The entire passage is not a dark void-like dimensional space that Jacques is familiar with, but a spiraling vortex, and everyone is drifting towards the center of the vortex under the pull of the vortex.

In the distance, Jacques noticed a black rift near the center point, and needless to say he knew it was an accidental spatial turbulence, and the equipment they were looking for was also in that rift.

Before drifting to the breach, the pull disappeared, and François suddenly stopped, turned to Jacques, and said, "I didn't expect you to be here." How did you get here?"

Although Jacques was surprised, he still replied in a normal tone: "I really didn't expect you to wake up." How did you regain consciousness?"

François laughed: "Well, I'll start by saying that I woke up before I got here, and as for how I did it, I'm sorry I can't say." ”

Jacques also said: "Then let me say, I can teleport, can you explain?"

"Enough!"

"Are you going in, then?" Jacques said, pointing to the rift.

"Of course not. François replied very briskly.

"Why? didn't you promise Cesara ......," Jacques said, only to realize that he had exposed something.

François shrugged. "It's okay, it's very normal for the transcendent to have some secrets, I just need the result, I don't care about the process, as a collaborator, I want to know if your goals are the same as mine?"

"What do you want to do?" Jacques looked at François seriously, even if François didn't know the identity of Fat Orange, he should have understood that at this time, Jacques and his gang also had an absolute advantage, and before playing tricks, I believe that François would think carefully.

François replied earnestly: "Protect our homeland." If you've eavesdropped on my conversation with my ancestors, you should know what I mean. ”

"The homeland you are talking about......"

"It's the world we live in, which, according to my ancestors, is a planet. If the two planets are connected, I fear that our world will become a slave and vassal of another world, just like the New World did ninety years ago. ”

"Didn't your ancestors come from any world?" Jacques questioned.

"So what? Even if the Cesar family is in decline, they are still standing at the top of this world, why do we need to find ourselves another group of commanding fathers?"

Jacques, though he felt that François had a point, asked the question: "Why are you here if you didn't want to do it in the first place?"

François simply sat down, pointed to the rift, and said, "This needs a lot to explain, but we have time, and now we just need to hold on to this place and not let the people inside come out." With you here, no matter who comes out, I'm not afraid. U9 eBook

When Jacques and the others heard that people would come out of the rift, they all moved their bodies and moved away from the rift.

"You know the Mithril Society, right? I used to suspect that you were a member of the Mithril Society. ”

Jacques replied, "I know, I actually have some relationship with them, let's put it this way, my mother was killed by someone from the Mithril Society." ”

François looked a little surprised, and continued: "Well, out of there are people from the Mithril Society. Let me first explain why I was able to regain my senses. ”

François fiddled with a necklace around his neck and said, "This thing is the personal ornament of the sixth Emperor of Cesara, a magical defensive item that can resist attacks."

At that time, when the sixth emperor was still the crown prince, he followed the orders of his ancestors and came here like me. The princes who came here before all lost their memories after entering the spaceship, and everyone didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was a special arrangement of the ancestors, and they lost the memories of that time, just because they were not chosen by the ancestors.

It wasn't until a prince died in the spaceship that we were alerted. So when the sixth emperor entered the place, he brought this necklace with him, and the necklace resisted Shaw's bewitchment, so he also knew his plan.

That's right, it wasn't Western Sahara the Great who planned all this, but this guy named Shaw. The Emperor would not have had contact with that world.

After that, each generation of princes entered here, in fact, for one purpose, to prevent Mithril from sending the folding space instrument here and activating it. ”

"You're saying that Mithril is going to send back the equipment that Tetsuo Shima lost?" asked Jacques.

François proudly said: "Yes, every twenty-five years, we of the House of Cesara have been guarding this place since 700 years ago. You will surely be confused, the Duchy of Stuart is so powerful, why don't you overthrow us and replace it? Why does Saxony always maintain the royal family? Not only the support of the legion and the people, but also the four principalities know that if the family of Western Sahara breaks off the lineage, no one will come here to stop the traitorous behavior of the Mithril Society. ”

"Why would the Mithril Society want to open this passage?"

"The Mithril Society was founded by Tetsuo Shima. He fell into the chasm, and instead of dying, he entered another dimension, where we don't know the situation, except that it took him many years to come out and assassinate Western Sahara. He believed that it was Western Sahara who caused his mission to fail, and he was exiled into the spatial rift, betraying their original world.

Because since the six generations of emperors, no one in the Xisara family has stepped into this spatial rift again, so we don't know anything about the situation on the other side.

But...... The undercover agent who broke into the Mithril Society brought some fragmented news that the Mithril Society had entered through a Beastmaster Ruins, which had three floors, and the third layer was connected to here. Actually, it was harder for them to get here, only twice, someone walked through the rift with the device, but they were all repelled by my ancestors, but unfortunately they couldn't leave the device, and they all got out of the way. ”

Jacques connected the messages and sighed, "It's good that Tetsuo Island has no descendants, otherwise it would be easier to enter here from the ship's side, and with Shaw's help." But I still have a question......"

"Please!"

"As far as I know, if the young heroes sent by the Mithril Society can pass the test of the ruins and enter the third layer, their strength must be extraordinary, how did your ancestors defeat them?"

"With the help of some foreign objects, I can only drive them away, but I can't kill them, and leave the space folding device behind. But you're here, maybe it's an opportunity, if someone from the Mithril Society shows up, can you help me keep him?"

Jacques thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, after all, when it comes to protecting this world, we have the same position. ”
