Chapter 29
The Knight of Light who was called in by Jian Lu was unexpectedly young, looking at the age of sixteen or seventeen, with a very upright, loyal and sunny smile on his face, which had been cultivated in the Temple of Light, it was reassuring at first glance, and he felt that this person was really an upright and good person.
It's also easy to deceive - on the surface!
"I wonder what your Excellency commands?" The young knight named Sauter asked respectfully, his eyes clear.
Jian Lu just looked at him silently, and when he saw that the young knight's face was slightly red, he blinked his eyes quietly, and secretly wondered in his heart, I don't know what this young man blushed at a rough man like him. He just wondered why this young man could smile so upright and loyal, and Hines had never laughed like that, could it be that his education had failed?
It seems that Hines is still to be adjusted. Teach.
Hines behind Jian Lu looked at Sauter expressionlessly, and naturally understood what Sauter was blushing about. The man himself had never realized how blessed his face was, so he naturally didn't understand that when men and women were silently watched by such a pair of eyes, it was like being wrapped in an invisible tenderness, which made people can't help but sink.
It looks so cold, and the light-colored eyes are so detached, but when you are watched by those eyes, you will feel very happy.
It's a very contradictory feeling.
"I'd like to ask, Chris. Saint. Where is Calent? ”
Sauter looked at him a little strangely, thought for a moment, and replied, "Didn't Your Excellency Chris go to the Wenya Forest with your Excellency a year and a half ago?" "So suddenly they saw the Holy Son in the Etas Ishihara, and they were quite strange.
Jian Lu paused, and probably understood in his heart that the disappearance of himself and Hines had not been revealed by the Temple of Light, so the people of the Temple of Light still thought that they were still training in the Wenya Forest.
In this regard, Jian Lu was noncommittal.
Through this matter, Jian Lu asked about what had happened in the Temple of Light in the past year, and then roughly sorted it out in his heart, and soon grasped the things in the temple almost completely, all of which were irrelevant, and the only thing he cared about was the Holy Maiden Amelia and the second prince of the empire, Alex. News of Edith's engagement.
He didn't expect that after only a year of disappearance, Amelia was engaged, although he had long known that Alex would be Amelia's husband in the future, but he still had a feeling of unhappiness that his sister was taken away by a stinky boy.
Fortunately, they were only engaged first, but the wedding date was not set.
Saintesses have always married later than other women in the Olawen Continent, probably because the saints who have been cultivated with great difficulty naturally have to let them shine for the Temple of Light first, and finally use their marriages to fight for the highest interests and squeeze the last bit of surplus value.
Even if there is any accident, the Temple of Light can still repent of marriage, and the Temple of Light is so capricious.
Therefore, Jian Lu was a little worried about what would happen if Amelia became an old saint (leftover) girl?
After asking about the Temple of Light, Jian Lu changed the topic and asked about Etas Ishihara.
Naturally, Sauter told him everything he knew.
"I see, Hines and I just came out of a gray fog space, and we happened to exit at Etas Ishihara, so we don't know what's going on here." Jian Lu began to ramble nonsense. It may be a problem with the natural sound quality, and his voice always gives people a very indifferent feeling, just like his light eyes.
Sauter smiled: "It seems that Your Excellency has some bad luck this time, this time many forces in the Olawen Continent have sent people over, and people from the Magicians Guild, Apothecary Guild and other big guilds have also come, I heard that some magicians have detected that not only the elemental elves were born under the Etas Stone Plain, but there is even a vein of magic crystals with rich reserves and pure magic power, and everyone is very concerned." Did you see anything when you came out of the underground cavern? ”
As he spoke, his eyes brightened, like an energetic boy's yearning for novelty.
"I don't see it." Jian Lu opened a pair of light amber eyes, lying and not typing drafts.
But his cold and noble appearance gave people the feeling that this person would never lie, so Sauter didn't doubt him either.
After asking a few more questions, Jian Lu asked Sote to fetch some fresh food before letting him leave.
After Sauter left the tent of the Holy Son, he asked a knight of light next to him to wait, and ran to find Boswell, and faithfully told him about the conversation he had just had with Jian Lu.
He was a knight belonging to the Order led by Boswell, and was loyal to the Order.
Boswell couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and the scar on his cheek writhed like a centipede.
He waved his hand for Sauter to leave, then looked at the entrance to the underground cavern, and said to himself for a while, "I don't know who will get the elemental elves in the end." ”
In the tent, after the two of them ate, they went into the bathroom in the tent to solve their physiological needs, and changed into clean clothes, and Jian Lu sat on the bed and meditated, as if he was not worried at all.
Hines sat on the couch next to him, looking at him with a bad eye.
No one bothered them until the evening, but Sauter brought dinner over, talked to them a few words, and left.
At night, Jian Lu and Hines lived in the same tent, and they both slept peacefully to replenish their spirits, and when they got up in the morning, they were both full of energy, and they looked like they had rested well, not like the tired appearance when they came out of the cave before.
When Boswell saw the two men coming out of the tent, he came up to greet them and asked, "Are you well rested?" ”
"Not bad." Jian Lu replied with a golden word.
Boswell didn't care about his coldness, he looked at the two boys carefully, and found that the aura on their bodies had changed, adding a killing aura compared to when they left the Temple of Light, although they were still young, but the kind of determination that was inadvertently revealed, I am afraid that the alien space where they were displaced was very dangerous, so that they got a good experience.
Danger often comes with opportunity, and only by experiencing danger can a warrior be polished more beautifully, and the same is true for magicians. Therefore, Jian Lu's experience this time, in the eyes of the people of the Temple of Light, is actually worth it.
Jian Lu glanced at the camps of the various forces on the stone plain, and said to Boswell: "Your Excellency, when do you think the people in the cave will come out?" ”
"That's up to the elemental elf to be cunning, if it's a little cutie who doesn't know anything, whoever catches it first will be whoever catches it - of course, this is relative to the Great Magician, if it's other people who don't get into the stream, then they don't have this luck." His voice was a little cold, "In addition to the elemental spirits, there is also the distribution of magic crystal ore, it has been many years since the continent detected the magic crystal mine, and no one will not be moved." ”
After all, there may be only one elemental elf, but the magic crystal ore is composed of countless magic crystal stones, which can also be divided.
"Do you think I'm right?" Boswell asked, a pair of eagle-like eyes staring sharply at him.
Jian Lu's expression was still calm, he looked up at the tall and burly man, his chin was slightly raised, and he replied slowly: "Your Excellency thinks it is right, that is right." ”
Boswell: ...... I don't know why, seeing his expression, my palms itch.
Boswell, who was itchy by Jian Lu but couldn't beat people, still couldn't find out anything else from Jian Lu, so he had to scold a little slippery head in his heart.
After dealing with Boswell's temptation again, Jane Lu took Hines back to the tent.
The tent was very simple, not as good as the golden tent they had bought with a lot of money in the small town of Yoshak, and the facilities inside were more complete, from the bedroom to the bathroom. But at this time, talk is better than nothing, and Jian Lu didn't care too much.
After returning to the tent, he casually laid a warning spell and a silence spell, and said to Hines: "Boswell obeys the Pope's orders, you should be careful in the future." ”
Hines paused and nodded at him.
The interior of the Temple of Light is not harmonious, the internal power struggle is even more than an empire, the Pope and the Elder Body have always had their own plans and contain each other, and the Twelve Knights composed of the Knights of Light have their own masters. In contrast, the Son and Daughter who have not yet grown up are like two innocent little lambs, bewitched by the peaceful atmosphere of the Temple of Light, they don't know anything, they just need to study hard, make progress every day, and when they reach adulthood, they will serve the Temple of Light.
I don't know if Amelia's marriage is a compromise for them.
Hines looked at him and found that those eyes that were usually light were a little colder than usual, and he didn't know what he was thinking, looking at these eyes sometimes made him unconsciously in a daze.
He really hoped that these eyes would only look at him alone and not at anyone else. Every time he looked at other people intently, it would always make the suppressed darkness in his heart uncontrollable.
When it was night again, Jian Lu opened his eyes from meditation and heard a commotion outside, he and Hines glanced at each other, and the two walked out of the tent.
Soon, several archmages flew out of the exit leading to the underground cavern.
Jian Lu looked a little envious, in the magic world, as long as he cultivated to a certain level, he could rely on his own strength to stand in mid-air, and even fly in the air, the magician and the golden fighter had this ability, and the others needed auxiliary tools.
He walked up to Boswell and joined him to greet the two archmages of the Temple of Light, one of whom was Cred.
The expressions of the two great mages were very bad, so that the people who greeted them couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts, and even those with sharp eyes had already seen that the same was true of those great mages of other forces, and even some of them had a withdrawn personality, and they left directly without saying a word, without stopping for a moment.
This phenomenon has already explained the situation, I'm afraid that no one can get the elemental spirit.
"Jane?" When Credder saw Jian Lu, there was a look of surprise on his face.
Jian Lushang saluted him and said respectfully, "Mentor Cred, long time no see." ”
Without asking him why he was here, Crader nodded at him and entered a tent with another archmage, and Jian Lu did not follow, but stood outside the tent and waited.
As a party concerned, he already knows the reason, but he has to show ignorance. The elemental elves have now been taken into the system space by him, and no one can take them out except himself, and no one can even feel the existence of the elemental elves, so he is very calm.
It took a while for Credder to come out and take Jane Lu into his tent.
After entering the tent, Jian Lu respectfully saluted him, sat down in front of him at the signal of Cred, and then told everything that happened after he entered the Wenya Forest.
Credt didn't expect his student to experience such a thing, and he was very surprised, and said, "When Chris returned to the Temple of Light to find me, he said that you and Hines had fallen into a spatial rift. ”
It's a pity that Chris was chased and killed by the two-headed demon snake at that time, and he took care of them flawlessly, and when he paid some price to get rid of the two-headed demon snake and returned to the rift, he found that the spatial rift had been closed. He had no choice but to turn back to the Temple of Light and find a way for Cred.
The disappearance of the Holy Son of the Temple of Light can be big or small, but the Temple of Light is more interested in the different space that the spatial crack leads to, since the human beings have explored a lot of different spaces, and also found a lot of treasures that are not available in the Olawen Continent, so they are very keen on the existence of different spaces.
It's a pity that when the Temple of Light sent people to the territory of the two-headed demon snake in the Wenya Forest, they searched for a year, but there was still no result, but they didn't expect the Holy Son and them to come out of the other space instead, but the exit was not in the Wenya Forest.
"That alien space, only gray mist?" Kress asked.
Jian Lu nodded, and told the situation in the gray fog space in detail, and after Credt listened, he couldn't tell the regret.
"My boy, you're out of luck!" Credder concludes that it is rare to find another dimension, but he enters a different dimension where there is no treasure but danger.
Jian Lu looked at him expressionlessly, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and luck will be good when he comes out, so that elemental spirit must be a gift from the heavens after the gray mist space tortured them for so long.
After learning about the students' affairs for more than a year, Credder said: "Since you are safe, this time you can go back to the Temple of Light with us, and I will inform the others to scatter the people of Wenya Forest back." ”
Jian Lu replied respectfully.
After he withdrew from Cred's tent, Jian Lu's heart was much more relaxed.
As long as Credder believed him, then he was safe, and no one would think that the elemental elves had been taken by him.
"Your Excellency." Hines, who was guarding in front of the tent, saw him come out and came to look at him, feeling a little nervous, for fear that Cred, as the archmage, would find out that Jian Lu had hidden an elemental spirit in his body.
In his heart, although the elemental spirit was not pleasant, it was ambushed by Jian Lu, and it was Jian Lu's belongings, and others who dared to move crooked thoughts were not good people.
Jian Lu nodded at Hines and was about to take him away when he suddenly saw a guard dressed in the royal knight costume of the Edith Empire hurrying over and asking to see the two archmages of the Temple of Light.
The two of them watched the figure of the royal guard of the Edith Empire leaving, their expressions subtle.
Just as Hines was thinking about how he would kill the eldest prince who was swept away by the underground river if Credder personally came out to rescue him, he heard Jian Lu's fluttering voice.
"Hines, let's go."
Hines looked up at him, and saw that the young man's flawless side face under the magic light still didn't seem to fluctuate, as if it wasn't worth his attention, and he couldn't help but calm down.
So, the two of them walked away without seeing anything unusual.
There are many empires built by humans on the continent of Olawen, among which the four continents that make up the continent of Olawen have one of the most powerful empires, surrounded by many small countries. And the Edith Empire in the Western Continent is obviously the highest comprehensive strength among the four empires, and this is also related to the fact that the headquarters of the Temple of Light is established in the Western Continent.
This time, the eldest prince of the Edith Empire came to check on the affairs of Etas Ishihara on the orders of the king, but he didn't expect that soon after entering the underground cave, he disappeared, and the royal guards who couldn't find it for two days were worried, so they had no choice but to let people come back first and go to the archmage of the Temple of Light for help.
How could Jian Lu not be worried in his heart? He was worried that after the eldest prince was rescued, it would be the turn of Hines, the bear child, to suffer. But it's useless to worry about it, unless the eldest prince is washed away by the underground river and drowns like this, then Qiē will be fine.
But I always feel that the eldest prince will not die lightly, otherwise how can he be a solid harem for the original heroine?
Although he was worried, Jian Lu's routine was still very normal.
The next morning, after finishing her morning prayers, Jane Lu went to look for Cred.
As the Son of the Temple of Light, he prays every morning, and the content of the prayer is nothing more than praising the Goddess of Light, pouring out his heart to the Goddess of Light, etc., which is a kind of faith, and the divine power of the Goddess of Light in the divine realm is strengthened in this belief. But for Jian Lu, a light-attribute magician who had no faith, praying to the goddess of light was useless.
After continuous study and attempts over the years, he faintly figured out one thing, that is, the magic that belongs to the blessing of the goddess of light in the legend is actually a kind of magic that can be comprehended by himself, and faith is just a power to bless the goddess, but it is for the goddess of light, and it has nothing to do with them, the believers of the goddess of light.
Jian Lu didn't trust the goddess of light, a god who didn't exist in a plane, how much could help him, and all his efforts were through himself, and praying was just to cope with the ritual, when he was in the gray fog space, he didn't pray a single one every day in order to survive, and now that he was surrounded by people from the Temple of Light, he naturally had to pretend to be.
When Jian Lu arrived, Credt just got up, as a student, he naturally had to serve his teacher closely, but Jian Lu also had the identity of a holy son, so he didn't need to do it himself.
"Jane, what's the matter?" Credder couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw the students coming over early in the morning.
He has taught the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter for many years, and knows their situation, they are simply learning with their lives, never wasting a minute or a second, nothing special, never wasting time to talk nonsense with people - Credder can't imagine Jian Lu holding such a cold and noble face and talking to people.
Jian Lu came to find Cred, naturally, there was something wrong.
The relationship between teachers and students in the Olawen Continent is closer than that of blood relatives, and relatives can also sever the relationship, but even if there is a blood feud between teachers and students, there is no way to break it, and the causal connection between teachers and students is strange when it is said. Although Credder is a member of the elder group in the Temple of Light, he has his own position to consider, but externally, Jian Lu and Amelia are his students, and if something happens to the students, he will not stand idly by as a teacher.
So this is the reason why Jian Lu came to him with the audacity.
When Credder listened to Jian Lu explain the reason, he suddenly looked at Jian Lu with a very unusual gaze.
Jian Lu looked directly at him and said softly: "We didn't know that it was His Royal Highness the Great Prince, and we only found out after listening to the words of those royal guards, so we ......"
Therefore, Jian Lu is here today to prevent trouble.
The corners of Cred's mouth twitched, he didn't expect his students to go out to practice, and they would cause such a disaster. Thankfully, the prince was just an illegitimate child.
So he said with some contempt: "Forget it this time, you are the Holy Son of the Temple of Light, why are you afraid of the illegitimate prince of an empire?" Don't take it personally. ”
From his indifferent tone, Jian Lu could get a glimpse of the hegemonic position of the Temple of Light in the Orawen Continent, and he didn't even care about the royal family with the strongest comprehensive strength of the human race, and there was a kind of arrogance that was superior to others. It is also this kind of arrogance and unforgiveness, so at the end of the novel, the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and the history of the Temple of Light that stood in the Orawen Continent for nearly 5,000 years came to an end, and the Temple of the Dark Goddess created by the original heroine replaced the Temple of Light.
But that was later, and after Jian Lu explained the matter, he got Cred's words and left with peace of mind.
I have to say that the signboard of the current Temple of Light is still very useful.
When Jian Lu returned to the tent, Hines also came in and asked, "Did Your Excellency go to explain the matter of the Great Prince to Archmage Cred?" ”
Jian Lu glanced at him, and said in his heart that if it weren't for you, a bear child, he wouldn't have made a special explanation, but he responded very coldly on his face.
Hines blinked his eyes, and saw that Jian Lu had already begun to practice magic, so he sat aside with the magic sword in his arms, and his face in front of the tent became deep, not at all as well-behaved and cute in front of Jian Lu.
In the evening, Jian Lu called Sauter in to chat, and soon learned from him that Credder had personally gone to carry the seriously injured eldest prince out of a mid-level demonic beast territory in the underground cavern, and then threw it to the guards of the Edith Empire, patted his ass and left, not caring about his life or death at all.
Jian Lu couldn't imagine how the eldest prince ran from the underground river to the territory of the mid-tier demonic beast and was seriously injured, but when he heard that the eldest prince was in a coma now, he didn't care.
In the days that followed, due to the disappearance of the elemental elves, all who remained in the Plains of Etas were forcibly guarded, especially those who entered the underground caverns, except for those who had left.
The group of great magicians left very unhappily because they didn't get the elemental spirits, but the people of other forces were not so easy to talk to, thinking that someone must have touched the elemental spirits away in troubled waters, and it is estimated that the elemental spirit is on someone at this time, and the elemental fluctuations of the elemental spirit are blocked by special means, so it must be checked, and it must be checked.
In addition to the panic caused by the disappearance of the elemental elves, the people who remained in the Etas Stone Plains gathered to discuss its ownership after detecting the reserves of the magic crystal mine.
The people of the great powers are arguing endlessly, and they all want to maximize their own interests.
However, none of this has anything to do with Jian Lu, he is the Holy Son of the Temple of Light, and no one has dared to use his crooked brain on him, and there are Credt and Boswell who have proved that when they came out of the underground cavern, they did not have any elemental spirit elemental fluctuations on their bodies, and no one doubted them.
After half a month of noisy noise, the people of the Temple of Light got what they wanted, and finally decided to leave.
After leaving behind the knights guarding the mines, Boswell, the captain, left the Esta Stone with the men of the God of Light.
The Temple of Light is the first force to leave, and there is no need to scruple about anything, it is so popular.
Jian Lu was also in the departing party, he was assigned to a Pegasus, and he rode a Pegasus with Hines, and left the Ethers Plains with the large army of the Temple of Light.
As the people of the Temple of Light left, those who remained in the Etas Stone Plains came out to see them off.
In the crowd, a dark-haired and black-eyed girl looked in the direction the people of the Temple of Light had left, and her eyes were a little confused.
For some reason, she always felt that her own things had been taken away, and the feeling of being uncomfortable all over her body was too obvious, which made her want to convince herself that she couldn't help it if she thought too much psychologically, and she had lived two lifetimes, and what she believed most was her own feelings.
Temple of Light? She remembered.
The rosy and graceful lips curled, and the girl's immature facial features appeared with a seductive color that did not match her age.
