Volume 1 Dragonfall Chapter 19 Carl's Memory
Flame Empire, outside the Military Pavilion.
With the sunshine of the empire falling, the imperial capital at this moment, the military hall of the empire at this moment, is wrapped in this atmosphere that is not day and night. At this time, it is the twilight of the empire.
With the departure of the last group of people in the Imperial Military Pavilion, the Military Pavilion of the Flame Empire gradually became empty, and at this time, no one was on duty here at night. A figure, taking advantage of this time, quietly walked into the military hall.
"Yegu, I'm here to ask you for something. Walking into the military hall, Carl got straight to the point and said to the young man in front of him.
The young man in front of him was Ye Gu, at this time, he was still a nobody in the Yanhuo Imperial Military Pavilion, and it was precisely because of this that he was always the last person to leave the Imperial Military Pavilion.
"Tell me about it. ”
"Help me get something, and you'll understand. Karl said, deliberately selling a pass to Yegu.
"Haha, you always like this, okay, I'll go with you. With that, Ye Gu agreed to Karl and followed him, walking towards the other side of the imperial capital.
Carl and Yegu met a few years ago. At that time, Yegu was surrounded by soldiers from the cold country in the north and was facing a desperate situation. It was because of Carl's feeling that a dark barrier was built around them, and as a result, they escaped from the encirclement.
It was precisely because of this incident that Karl and Yegu formed a friendship, and this friendship has been maintained to this day.
Although the imperial capital of the Flame Empire is large, Karl can walk through it at will, in addition to his identity as an archon, many research on the demonic power within the empire is also in charge of Carl. Therefore, when Karl showed his identity as an archon to the soldiers leading to the door of the Imperial warehouse, he encountered no obstacles and easily walked into the depths of the warehouse.
"We've been ordered to come to the Imperial Warehouse to pick up something, and you stand at the door, and we'll leave when we're done. Karl said, preparing to walk down the warehouse with Yegu.
"Lord Consul, can you tell us what you want to do with what you're going to take? It was the soldiers of the Imperial Depot who spoke, and at this time, followed closely behind Karl, fulfilling his duty.
"There are some things that you don't need to know too much, you just need to know a little bit, what we took for the research of the Empire's demonic source power. After Carl finished speaking, regardless of the attitude of the soldiers behind him, he went directly down the stairs and walked into the depths of the imperial warehouse with Yegu.
The Empire's warehouse, which began construction two hundred years ago, was built for more than ten years. It was also because of this time that the Empire's warehouses became the largest buildings within the Empire, second only to the Imperial Palaces in scale.
At the top of the warehouse, the flag of the Flame Empire fluttered, and this flag swore the sovereignty of the Fire Empire. However, there are only three floors on the ground part, and these three floors are mainly used to place some royal supplies and tributes from the countries surrounding the empire.
The basement of the Imperial Warehouse has seven floors. On the first three floors, there are some valuable ritual utensils used by the imperial family, as well as gold and silver stored in the imperial treasury. The third to fifth floors are where Imperial weapons and munitions are stored. Spears, bows and arrows, armor, and firearms. The sixth layer of the empire is to store some useless treasures in the empire, and these treasures are mostly old because they have not been managed for a long time. As for the seventh floor of the Imperial Warehouse, few people reached it, because even the Emperor of the Flame Empire paid little attention to it. There, it has been imprisoned by an iron gate for many years, and the outside world cannot know the mysteries.
Carl and Yegu are going to the sixth floor of the Imperial Warehouse, where the old treasures of the Empire are kept.
"Ahem, Carl, no one has been here for so many years, are you sure there will be something you need?" Walking down the stairs, Yegu and Carl's steps caused a lot of dust, obviously, no one has been here on the sixth floor of this warehouse for many years. Because of this, Ye Gu had doubts about what he could find here.
"When His Majesty the Emperor asked me to do research on the power of the Demonic Origin, he said that I can freely take the things in the Imperial Warehouse, except for the first three floors. In the past two days, in the study of the magic source force, I found some anomalies, and after thinking about it, only this thing can explain this anomaly. Saying that, Karl didn't care about Yegu behind him, and walked straight towards the interior of the sixth floor of the warehouse.
In just a few seconds, Karl's vision fell on a rock. He didn't pay attention to Ye Gu's puzzled eyes, took the stone, took Ye Gu with him, and left the empire's warehouse directly, returning to the former library of the Flame Empire.
"What is the anomaly that makes you have to find a broken rock to answer? Ye Gu said, in the library, picked up the stone that Carl had just picked up, and looked at it carefully.
The stone was old and covered with a thick layer of dust. Outwardly, the stone resembles a spherical shape. When Ye Gu gently wiped the dust off the surface of the stone, a few strange words were revealed on it, which seemed to be the language of the ancient empire.
"You see. Carl said, his hands gathered the dark magic source power in his body, and suddenly, there was still a trace of sunset light left around him, at this time, in the library, it disappeared in an instant, replaced by the darkness emitted by Carl's hands.
"Secretly from the ancients, secretly enlightened the present. Reciting the incantation, Karl injected the power of the magic into the stone in front of him. As soon as this stone came into contact with the demonic source power of the Karl Dark System, it reacted instantly. The stone rose into the air, emitting a strong green glow in Yeguna's slightly surprised eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Karl injected the dark magic source power into the stone again, and this time, the dark magic source power combined with the green light emitted by the stone, and shot a heavy light towards the ground in front of Carl and Yegu.
This light scorched the floor of the library, and after a few minutes, as Karl's magic source power stopped, the light of the stone also stopped. And the ground scorched by the light revealed some symbols.
"Yegu, this is the text of antiquity. Carl said, filled with excitement, a discovery he had never found before his research, and now it was clearly in front of his eyes.
"Do these words say anything?" Unlike Karl, Yegu on the side was full of doubts.
"Wait a minute, I'll translate for you. With that, Carl picked up his pen and transcribed the words on the ground.
"Magic-power-re-return, flame-determination-breaking-cracking. Carl translated word by word, and at the same time, Carl also took a pen and recorded the content of the translation on another piece of paper.
However, while Carl was translating the text, the ground that had been burned by the demonic power just now had been restored to its original state at this moment. As if nothing had ever happened.
"Magic power, refers to the power of the demon source, Yan Ding, refers to the Yan Ding Stone of the Fire Empire. Ye Gu, I think that the increase in the power of this dark demon source must have something to do with this. Carl said, not noticing the change in the ground, but paying attention to the words in front of him. At the same time, Karl also picked up the stone just now and looked at Yegu.
"What do you want me to do?"
"You take it first and go inside the empire, it should tell you some clues. Be quick, though. With that, Karl gave the stone to Yegu, who, without saying anything, took the stone and walked out of Carl's room.
"Looks like I'm going to have to go to that person, even if the Empire thinks I'm a traitor, I'll admit it. After Yegu walked out, Karl sat where he was and muttered to himself, he knew that from this moment on, there would be a huge secret in the empire that would emerge in front of his eyes.
It was also two months later that Karl finally learned from Ye Gu that the Emperor of the Empire wanted to use the Flame Stone. A year later, the emperor ordered that the empire should prepare for Longqing.
