Chapter 43: Demon Blood Reincarnation
The Silver Star Tower belongs to the middle and upper echelons of the entire continent, but behind Coronia is the Dark Wizard Association, which is a behemoth.
The former has a hard time reaching here, and at most maintains the most basic intelligence work.
Zhou Chen didn't get too much detailed information because of this, so he had Geer's shot to get information from Ledim's mouth.
This is not a temporary rise, it has been prepared for a long time, gathering intelligence along the way.
Zhou Chen is not very interested in this information, mainly for Gehr's revenge, so only Gehr is really doing this.
As the carriage traveled, Zhou Chen was approaching the core of Corunia, and the final destination was the royal city of Corunia.
All the information summarized so far shows that Geer's enemy, Phyllis, who was known as the Eagle King at the time, was the founder of the Coronia Empire.
This was more than 700 years ago, which also shows that Gehr was forced to jump off a cliff by Philip's death and entered the palace of death after death, which was also at that time.
Seven hundred years, the emperor has changed generations, is Phyllis still there? Under normal circumstances, the great wizard does not have this lifespan.
But I don't know if it was due to the obsession with revenge, or if it was really sensitive, or because of his understanding of Phyllis, Geer told Zhou Chen with certainty that this person would never die so easily, and he was definitely still hiding somewhere.
With this in mind, Gehr wanted to go to the royal city to find out, after all, this was the home base of the royal family of Corunia, and the possibility of finding clues here was always much higher than in other places.
Zhou Chen came out this time to take a casual stroll, what he was thinking about was the ruins of the demon god, and when the ruins were over, he would really start to look for the method of refining the human body.
As for now, it's best if you can find it by the way. Presumably, there will be a lot of valuable books in the royal palace of Corunia, and it may or may not be rewarding.
Relying on four silver-hoofed wildebeests, the carriage was not slow, and after many days, it came to the royal city.
It is a very large city, with a population of more than 200,000 people, many of whom are affluent above the middle class. In the center of the city is the towering castle, where the emperor was located. Outside the city is a high and thick wall, on which there are thousands of soldiers who usually rotate to patrol and guard.
The gate was also very large and thick, and there was a wide moat on the perimeter.
Xiang entered the city through the city gate, which had to be strictly investigated in the past, not to mention that now that it is a time of war, the soldiers in front of the city gate are more vigilant and severe.
Zhou Chen's carriage entered the city very smoothly, because the ghost clothes made a move, she used the ability to hypnotize and charm, and easily hypnotized the soldiers at the city gate.
After entering the city, they found an inn to store their carriages and horses, and Zhou Chen and Youyi headed towards the huge castle in the center of the city.
Ming and Geer were temporarily included in the death palace by Zhou Chen. The temporary cultivation of life has not been completed, and Gehr is not good at sneaking in.
Although it was daytime, with the strength of Zhou Chen and Youyi, they easily infiltrated the castle without alarming anyone, and quickly found the forbidden place of the castle.
The forbidden land is deep underground in the castle, and there is a cave here, opening up a huge space, and the most eye-catching thing is a large blood pool, and the complex magic circle around the blood pool.
"Master, this is the Demon Blood Reincarnation Circle, a forbidden circle that has almost been lost. It requires an extremely large amount of biological blood essence, at least ten different high-level demonic beast essence blood, and a variety of rare materials, to finally refine a monster called a blood beast. These monsters are not self-conscious, and are usually crafted by wizards as clones or alternate bodies. ”
Since Yuyi had consciousness, she has existed in the Death Palace for thousands of years, and her knowledge is very wide. And at Zhou Chen's request, in the past few years after entering the Silver Star Tower, she also insisted on reading every day and perfected her knowledge in many aspects.
This is partiality, because apart from her, the other 22 black soul levels, including Gehr, Zhou Chen did not ask them to learn.
The other servants will make other arrangements when necessary in the future, and for the time being he only orders the Dark Clothes to prepare for a rainy day and increase their knowledge.
Yuyi knew that the master valued her and cultivated her, and while feeling happy, she also carried it out very seriously. Therefore, she could also recognize such a high-level and complex magic circle in front of her.
"Yes, go on. ”
Zhou Chen signaled.
He also had a lot of knowledge when he was in the Silver Star Tower, but he spent most of his time cultivating, unlike the Ghost Clothes who always had free time to read. Therefore, he didn't know as much about the forbidden magic circle in front of him as he did about the ghost clothes.
"Yes, master. ”
Youyi smiled sweetly at Zhou Chen, and continued: "This magic circle was opened not long ago, and now it has been partially damaged, and this blood pool is full of essence blood, but it still looks overflowing, in fact, it is all waste blood, and the essence of it has been drained. ”
"Write down all of this circle, it might be useful in the future. ”
Zhou Chen threw out a small astrolabe magic weapon, which was used to record images, and the function was similar to that of a video camera. This artifact is one of the benefits that the Silver Star Tower gives to the Mentor, and it will be given out every once in a while. Obviously, in the Silver Star Tower, there are wizards who are good at refining magic weapons.
"Hee-hee, obey!"
The Shadow Cloth gently caught the astrolabe and began to carry out the mission.
And after Zhou Chen observed the surroundings, he called Geer out of the palace of death.
"Master, what do you command. ”
As soon as Gehr came out, he got down on one knee and waited for orders.
"Get up, this is the castle's underground forbidden place, and see if you can see anything. ”
Zhou Chen said this because he had already made a guess based on the information he had obtained along the way.
In fact, compared to Zhou Chen's speculation, those intelligence conditions were really insignificant, but with his experience and analytical power, he could draw a conclusion with great possibilities just from the fragmentary information.
"Master, I'm sure Phyllis has been here. ”
By this time Gehr had finished observing the environment, and he pointed to a stone throne on the east wall and said, "This style of throne is definitely Phyllis!
"Okay, I see, let's get out of here. ”
Zhou Chen was nine out of nine sure of his own inference.
Gehr's enemy, Phyllis, did not die, but hid in this forbidden place beneath the castle.
He's definitely not in good shape, at least not in the last few years.
Most of the national wars in Corlunia were promoted by him from behind the scenes, or at least he was one of the promoters.
The war caused countless casualties, and he must send someone or personally to collect a large amount of blood, make essence blood and bring it back here to inject into the blood pool, the purpose is to complete the demon blood reincarnation circle and refine a blood beast body for himself.
At this moment, the forbidden land was abandoned by Phyllis, and he himself should have completed the body change and left as a blood beast.
According to Gehr's description, Phyllis was extremely arrogant and would not allow himself to live as a blood beast. Then his future movements are clearer, and there are only so many options.
Zhou Chen already knew the movements of this unmasked person.
