Chapter Eighty-Nine: Dark Shadows
Three days and three nights have passed since the silver-haired old man Granty began to speak. All the glorious beginnings of his life have finally been told, and the three listeners are still reminiscing about his story and have not recovered.
After a while, there was a sudden "gurgling" sound from Alicia's lower abdomen, and the three of them woke up.
"Grandpa, are you finished?" Alicia looked at her sister and Fiat, then said to Granty. "I'm so hungry, I really want to eat right away."
"Gollum" Meréa and Fiat both made the same sound at the same time, and they did not eat or drink for three days, and the whole person seemed weak.
"I'm sorry, the old man said it too long." Grant said apologetically. "I've basically finished talking about it, and the rest is about the world where my body is and how to get there, and a few other things. I can still be there for half a day, and if you're too hungry, go eat some food and get back to your body so you can continue listening to the rest of the story. ”
"Yes, yes." Alicia didn't know what it meant to be modest, and immediately shouted happily. "I'm starving, I'm going to have a big meal."
Meria patted her sister weakly and said. "You can't bear to bear Mom, and you won't starve to death as easily."
"Oops, my good sister. It's so good to be hungry and listen carefully to the old man. "Alicia isn't going to follow Merea.
"Alright, you two don't talk about it." Hearing the possibility that the two of them were going to continue again, Fiat, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly interrupted. "We all listen to the old-timers, hurry up and eat some food, and come back to continue listening to the old-timers."
"Alright, Zhilu Dao." Alicia stopped talking to her sister and turned to walk towards the door.
Meréa saluted Granty and headed for the door.
"Hey! These two girls look like this every time, it's really head-catching. Fiat muttered to himself as he walked towards the door.
Grant didn't say anything, just held her beard and watched them go out.
An hour later, the three of them returned, all in good spirits.
"Grandpa, let's start talking." Alicia said impatiently.
"Huh! Okay, right away. Grant is very fond of the bubbly and outgoing Alicia and feels like her granddaughter.
Glancing at the three of them, Grant began to continue. "Actually, there is not much to say, but there is one point that must be emphasized." After a pause, he pointed to the golden obelisk and continued. "This obelisk is very important, and it has another function - to open the key to the door to the world where my body is located. Don't lose it, or you won't be able to get to me. ”
All three of them turned in the direction of the golden obelisk, looking at this small obelisk, they couldn't believe that it had such a function.
"Grandpa, are you having fun over there?" Alicia asked again suddenly, and looked very expectant.
"Huh!" Grandi Fushu smiled. "Of course it's fun, and it's fun. But the premise is that you can come so that you can experience. ”
"Really?" Alicia asked again.
"Really." Granty replied in the affirmative.
"Alicia, don't talk too much, let the old-timers continue." Seeing that Alicia wanted to continue, Fiat had to come up and say.
"Okay, I'll stop talking." Alicia said with her cute little tongue.
Then Grant told a lot of the information about it, and two or three hours passed.
During this time, Fiat and Mereado listened very carefully, for fear of missing something important, but Alicia couldn't, and when she heard something she wasn't interested in, she listened half-heartedly and didn't listen to her heart at all.
After a long narration, Granty's mental clone appeared very weak at this time, and its form became transparent, and it seemed that it could disappear at any time.
Although they still want to know more information, the reality does not allow it, and the three of them can only accept the reality helplessly.
The three of them looked at Granty, who had become three-fifths transparent, and didn't know what to say.
Grant knew that time was running out, so she hurriedly said. "You don't have to, if we can get there, we can still have a chance to meet."
After saying these words, Grant became more transparent. His hands formed an intricate series of handprints, and the little energy left was poured into the golden obelisk, and then the golden obelisk suddenly changed, and the spire suddenly opened, revealing a silver ring inside.
Granty pointed to the silver ring and said solemnly to the three of them. "You should keep this ring alive and wait for someone to appear. Even if this is the old man's request, be sure to take care of the ring before the destined person appears, which is an extremely important thing. ”
Hearing such a solemn request from Granty, the three of them did not answer for a while, but just looked at the extremely inconspicuous silver ring, not knowing what to think.
Granty didn't rush them, just looked at the three of them kindly, mainly the two sisters, of course.
After a cup of tea, Alicia suddenly walked over to the golden obelisk, picked up the silver ring in her hand, and returned to her place to reassure Granty. "Don't worry, old man. Alicia will definitely follow the old man's instructions and take good care of the ring until the appearance of the destined person. ”
"Huh!" Seeing Alicia behave like this, Grant smiled very happily. "Since you are willing to accept it, then the old man will entrust it all to you. When you come to the old man's place, he will definitely give you a large number of fun and useful prizes. ”
"Don't worry, old man. This princess has always had no problem doing things. Alicia boasted to herself, and then her tone changed. Is there really a prize? Isn't it fun? ”
"Really, it really can't be true. When you get it, you'll know if it's fun. Grant replied.
"Oh! I'll definitely come over, and you can't lie to me. Alicia said with a pair of big beautiful eyes staring straight at Granty.
"Huh!" Grant just smiled and didn't say anything more.
Neither Fiat nor Mereia expected that Alicia would suddenly go over to get the ring, and they were both stunned.
Grant gave the next three more orders, and then the whole person disappeared.
Jiandao Grant vanished, and the three of them looked at each other, and began to study the newly acquired items and a lot of information.
These are very important to them. Knowing where Grandi was located made them yearn for it.
Early the next morning, at the home of the two sisters.
Fia had just finished preparing breakfast for the two sisters when he suddenly received an urgent call asking him to inform the two sisters to go to Fiat's in an hour.
Fei Ya didn't dare to slack off, and immediately put down the work at hand and dared to go to the bedroom of the two sisters.
Since they didn't go to bed until late yesterday, the two sisters were still dreaming in their sleep.
As an older sister, Meréa was fine, and immediately got up to prepare after learning that Fiat wanted them to come over. The second sister Alicia was not good, she was pulled back to reality by Fia from a good dream, and she started a princess temper, but she refused to get up, and in the end it was Mereia who came to get it up.
Alicia got up sleepily, washed up and dressed, and followed Fia to the restaurant for breakfast.
An hour later, Fia escorted the two sisters to Fiat's office after breakfast. The car was moving quickly, and it didn't take long for the destination to be reached.
The two sisters got out of the car, and Fiya drove the car to stop the car, and then waited for the return contact.
When the guards at the door saw the two princesses approaching, they immediately saluted very respectfully. "Her Royal Highness Princess Merea" "Her Royal Highness Princess Alicia"
The two sisters nodded and then went inside, and went to Fiat's location with great familiarity.
A short time later, the two sisters came to a door, and Meréa immediately put her hand on the sensor on the side of the door.
Backbite......
It was only a matter of moments, and the sensor made a soft sound, and then the red turned green, and then the door opened automatically.
Fiat was waiting for the two sisters inside, after all, there were some things that only the two sisters could do.
When the sisters came out of the house, they were completely unaware that they were being followed. A vague black shadow followed all the way here, and also entered inside, but no one found that it was wrapped in the entire defense and alert system.
One of the sisters followed the two sisters into Fiat's office door, then looked around for the terrain and finally found the best spot in another room nearby, so he took out a very strange instrument, fiddled with it for a while, and pointed it against the imaginary target.
The face of the black shadow could not be seen at all, blocked by a cloud of inky black mist, and only a pair of abnormal eyes were exposed.
The eyeballs are an eerie green color, and the pupils glow reddish-brown, which looks unusually weird.
Soon the image was displayed in the instrument, and the black shadow adjusted the lower position, and a clear picture appeared.
Fiat sat in his seat and said something to the two sisters, but the sound source was very mixed and could not be heard clearly.
The shadow observed, then began to fiddle with the instrument again, and soon the voice became clear, and began to listen carefully.
Inside, Fiat was asking the two sisters. "You two talk about it, can you do what the old man said."
"Hmm......" Mei Lei Ya thought for a moment, and then replied. Grandpa, there should be no problem. Although the main part is already there, we have not yet understood it thoroughly and may not be able to start right away. ”
"Oh, that's right." After listening to Merea's words, Fiat lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then spoke again. "In that case, then you should hurry up your research, and if you are not sure, then join all the top researchers of the Imperial Research Institute."
"Grandpa, this is okay, and the chance of success can be greatly increased." Meria agreed, but she wasn't too sure.
"Grandpa, then let's divide it into two parts at the same time." Alicia, who had not spoken, suddenly interjected. "My sister and I are responsible for the main part of the research, and the rest is done by the Imperial Research Institute. What do you say? ”
"Oh!" Fiat didn't expect Alicia to make such a constructive proposal, but after thinking about it, it made sense, so she turned to the two sisters. "Then so be it, the main part will be completed by you, and the rest will be completed by the Imperial Research Institute, and you must strive to complete it before the founding ceremony."
"That's good, grandpa." The two sisters replied.
"Good, good. This is my good granddaughter. Fiat said happily. All hopes of whether the empire can surpass the other twelve civilizations and become the most powerful existence are all pinned on the two of you. Be sure to decipher the unknown techniques in the items left behind by the old-timers and get hope. ”
Everything that happened inside was displayed on the Shadow's instrument, and everything was known to the Shadow.
He muttered in an unusually hoarse voice. "This information is so important that it must be reported to the headquarters immediately."
After looking at the picture on the instrument again, the black shadow immediately packed up the instrument and carefully dived out of it again.
In the process, he was like a shadow, diving into the shadows, and no one noticed his existence, so he came out of it unharmed.
