The way Lance returned to the Imperial City of Marille was through the Magic Guild's teleportation array. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info body was surrounded by light, and the next moment I was dizzy, and my feet seemed to be stepping on the feeling of being in mid-air, and I came back to my senses and saw that I had understood where I was.
The blonde youth was about to walk towards the entrance of the Magic Guild, and after taking a few steps, he secretly felt strange that there were fewer magicians left in the teleportation array than usual, and there was a bleak sadness on the faces of those magicians.
Soon, this doubt was explained.
Lance met an acquaintance in the hall of the guild, and it should be said that it was a person who was even more kind to his mentor than his mentor.
"Mr. Sbroad, why are you here?"
Seeing this gray-haired old man Lance was surprised, when did he come back, why was he here, did he already know ......?etc., there were many questions in his heart that he wanted to ask, and when he realized that this hall where people came and went was not a good place to talk, he gathered all his thoughts.
"You're back. ”
Roark Swider heard his voice and turned his head to look at him, his expression was very serious, which made Lance's heart uneasy, was it really ......
"Could it be?"
"Go back to your home. ”
"Wait, I don't quite understand. ”
"Let's go, go back to your home. ”
Roque walked quickly into the street and walked in the direction of Jepéry's house, and had no intention of calling a carriage, so Lance had to obediently follow behind. As for Roque Swide, not only are he famous people in the entire Carranslan Empire, but he is also a well-known figure in the entire Vogullet continent.
The reason why this old man's name was known was not just because he had raised his son to be a surprisingly good dragon slayer, but because when he was thirty years old, he accepted what was said to be the strongest magical beast in the Vogulite continent as a magical pet. The following year, the dragon descended on a certain village, and it happened that he was nearby, and before the people of the temple arrived, after an unimaginable battle with the demon pet, he killed the dragon that was endangering the village.
In that incident, neither the people of the temple nor the dragon slayer knights were involved, but only arrived after the incident to calm and heal the wounded.
It was a miracle, the first miracle ever in the history of the entire continent of Vogulet.
Ordinary people defeated the terrible dragon.
Since then, Roque Swider has become famous.
Many people have made Roque their goal, hoping to become a figure like him who can defeat dragons without the help of Excalibur.
Since then, Roc has also participated in several crusades against dragons.
On the New Year's Day when Roque was thirty-five years old, he took his eight-year-old son Essen to visit the temple, first, he knew that Essen had excellent talents, and second, he hoped that Essen would become a knight who was not inferior to himself. As a result, Ethan literally became a Dragon Slayer Knight, as the master of the Sword of Light, bringing ten years of stability to the continent of Vaugulet.
Roque's past is illustrious, and even his son, Essen Swider is in the limelight, under unimaginable pressure, and gaining a reputation that ordinary people can't get.
That is the famous Swider family, the descendants of Swided.
I don't know how long I walked, the road to Jepéry's house is getting closer and closer, this place is a place that has been seen more than a thousand times, and when you close your eyes, you will emerge, those plane trees arranged in a compact row are like exactly the same brothers, and when the wind walks by, they will make a neat rustling sound, which is very in tune.
After this stretch, Jepéry's house arrived.
Along the way, Lance frowned, and when he arrived at the door, his expression was soothed.
Rock came to Jeppely's house as if he was already familiar with the road, said hello to the housekeeper, and went directly to the living room, unceremoniously, pushed open the door and found a place to sit down. After a while, Redrick heard the news and rushed over.
"Okay, everyone is here, let's talk quickly!"
Redek glanced at Lance, didn't say anything superfluous, and immediately got to the point.
"Lance, tell me what you're inquiring about. ”
The atmosphere was a bit tense, and more importantly, Roque's impatience, and Lance wanted to ask some additional questions, but those were put aside for now.
"I met with the owner of Wolfsburg, and he told me that a man had come from the Imperial City and wanted to discuss with him a deal, the details of the deal...... Uh, it's a slave. The owner of a place kept a group of slaves for himself, and he had them mine for him, and the ore was ......"
Before Lance could finish his words, Roque said suddenly.
"Is that so, then it will be proven. ”
"Proof ??"
Lance asked, "What does this have to do with Danica, and why did she disappear?!"
The owner of Wolfsburg told Reims the whole story.
A merchant from Marlene came to Wolfsburg, which includes Wolfsburg and the city of Bloo below, a special area that few people know about. It was three hundred years ago, when a dragon attacked the city of Blo, and the Rodi Pava Empire and the Karanslan Empire sent a raid team one after another, as well as a tripartite cooperation with the Temple, and after the crusade, the three parties discovered a rich magic crystal mine in the underground of that area.
The ore produced by the magic crystal mine is a very pure and extremely rare one, with a strange name called Graphite, which is used to make magic items and wands have a very significant effect, and the price is also the most expensive.
The three parties discussed it for two weeks, and each other wanted to take it into their own hands, and the argument was bloody.
In the third week, the three parties finally reached an agreement that the place would be jointly managed by the three parties.
In order not to be known by unrelated people, the three parties sealed off this place and used the Warcraft Forest as a guise to warn everyone not to enter easily.
Then, they built a castle on the top of the hill to monitor and manage.
However, they could never have imagined that three hundred years later, this place would become a mecca for travel.
If you get that rich magic crystal mine, the magical resources of the Caranslan Empire will be even higher, and many magicians will go crazy because of it.
"I'm not a magician, and I don't understand how tempting a magic crystal mine can be. ”
The owner of Wolfsburg met with the merchant, and the merchant hoped to get the help of the owner of Wolfcastle to quietly mine the place, of course, not ordinary people, only slaves, because slaves are the easiest to control.
Lance told everything he knew, and the Sword of Thunder never left his side, when it suddenly spoke.
"I know, that kind of stone. ”
"What do you know about the Sword of Thunder?"
"I was forged from that kind of hedron, and not only that, but so was the inheritance of the Temple of the Four Directions. ”
