The man who came in was about as tall as Odin, wearing a white robe that hung down from the ground, and had a slender body like an Elf of Evan Quinn, with pointed ears and only silver pupils - the Oxidant had almost never seen an elf with silver eyes, unless he was suffering from some rare genetic disease, Aitalia, and naturally had a genetic disease.

He couldn't even tell whether it was a man or a woman, the other party's facial lines were very soft, and there was some feminine softness in his eyes, but he behaved like a man, and the robe on his body was also in the style of a witch.

The other man had waist-length white hair, unstained with dust, and wore a crown on his forehead, made of star silver, which seemed to be woven of oak branches and leaves, and shimmered in the sunlight that passed through the window.

In the other party's silver eyes, he was looking at Fang Yu with a faint look, and his expression was a little repulsive thousands of miles away, so that Fang Yu didn't know how to speak for a while, and froze on the bed.

It was Odin who spoke: "Ed, this is the master of Nevad. ”

"My real name is Milleusmis, but you can call me Ann Lothar," replied the Elf, "Your name is Eddard?" ”

Fang Yu didn't know how to answer, so he only nodded.

The 'elf' looked at Odin and replied, "I don't interfere with your decision, if you return the favor to the green sea, the Hall of a Thousand Doors will open on the first full moon night in seven days, and you still have time to think about it before that—"

"I've thought about it, Ann Lother." Odin replied.

The 'elf' was noncommittal, and glanced back at Ed: "There are many people who yearn for him, but how many have really achieved it?" Fighting craftsmen, not necessarily the right path, people always remember the glory, and thus forget something essential—"

After the elf said this, he turned around and walked out the door, leaving only Odin and Fang Ou.

Odin was a little confused, but Fang Yu understood the other party's words. The other party actually understood his name, that is the only great alchemist in people's hearts since ancient times, and indeed more people remember the glory of the other party, thus forgetting that the great alchemist Ed is still the one who single-handedly promoted the alchemy revolution.

But in fact, Fang Yu himself admires the greatness of democratizing alchemy, and the Hain-Sail he is pursuing is also a practitioner on this path. His position as a combat craftsman was originally made only for the convenience of adventure.

Later, there was an additional element of self-preservation.

In order to travel to the vast world of Aitalia, he had to follow the path of an adventurer. But in fact, what I yearn for more is the line of the great craftsman - the essence of creation and alchemy.

Odin didn't understand the underlying conversation, and he watched the other man leave, before he spoke:

"How's it going?"

Fang Yu rubbed his groggy head, looked at the other party, and nodded: "It's okay." ”

"After sleeping for a day and a night, I think it's okay." Odin nodded as well.

Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little speechless, he was secretly drinking at Mr. Quelode's at that time, and was later discovered by Scarpe, and it was exactly the same situation. But in retrospect, that time was a bit more tragic.

It looks like Elf Gin, and it's not as good as the eaux-de-vie vodka.

Odin paused for a moment before speaking again:

"Any thoughts?"

"What's the idea?" This has no head and no tail, which makes Fang Yu slightly stunned.

"Before."

But there were a lot of words before, and the concise and concise way of talking to one of the ten kings made Fang Yu really a little confused. He couldn't help but ask, "Which one?" ”

Fortunately, Odin was not impatient, and only looked at him: "Nevad's master said that the Hall of a Thousand Gates will be opened in seven days. ”

Fang Yu was still confused: "What is the Hall of a Thousand Doors?" ”

Odin paused for a moment and asked, "You always know Lofa, right?" ”

Fang Yu nodded.

Lofa is Loofah, one of the most gifted alchemists of his generation—or combat craftsman—known for his versatility and precision. In China, it is widely agreed that this future star will be the next generation of the country's top craftsmen.

It is even believed that she is the owner of this title in the previous generation, a strong challenger to the 'Queen of Hades' - and of course it can be said to be the successor, after all, the relationship between the two is also a teacher and a friend. And the competition between seniors and seniors is actually not as fierce as imagined.

The Electors of the previous generation will always leave, and they still have a lot to do before the next generation comes to the top.

This spirit passed down from generation to generation was left by the first generation of Star Gate callers, and although it was later weakened because of the club's involvement, it has now faded a lot.

However, because of the failure of the Turbid Domain, many people have become aware of this problem again - the domestic competition seems to be in a season of green and yellow. And it is at this time that Loofah, the 'nameless alchemist' in the continental league, will become a hero in people's hearts.

People expect too much that a hero who can carry the girder and become the mainstay will be born.

As for everything about Fenris, under the national propaganda, the plover is defined as an 'aborigine', partly to protect him, and on the other hand, to save him a lot of trouble. At least people's attention has shifted to that 'hero'.

Instead of looking for that illusory 'genius'.

Otherwise, I don't know how much of a wave it will make.

But Odin looked at this young man, and what he thought in his heart was actually not much different from the state of mind at that moment.

Their generation has experienced the most glorious dynastic era in the Chinese division, but after witnessing the afterglow of that era, when this generation also comes to an end - who will be the successor of the domestic division?

They are not the best of the best, because those who shaped the dynasty have long since left, and it can be said that they are not qualified successors.

Odin thought of the old president of the previous generation of Ragnarok, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed for a while, he personally said that he did not disgrace Ragnarok, and his achievements were not below the old president of the previous generation.

But as a president, it's far from it.

In the heyday of the domestic division, it once had six ten kings, six seats in the world division, and three of them were the top three in the world, which can be said to occupy the vast majority of advantages.

And right now, there are only two people left. Ye Hua is still young, but he himself is about to leave, after he leaves, won't there be only one Ten Kings in the domestic division? Almost on the same level as the weakest Central Asia and North African divisions.

It is said that it is almost, because the middle and lower class still have an advantage.

But with such achievements, how can their generation explain to the ancestors of the previous generation?

Odin was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "Loofah has also entered the Hall of a Thousand Doors, I can't explain to you what kind of place it is, but if you want to become a top alchemist, this is an essential process." ”

Fang Yuan's expression looked a little surprised, he had almost never heard of such a thing.

Odin was not surprised to see his expression: "Ordinary people rarely have the door to hear about these things, because the tower keeper will not easily open the hall of a thousand doors, unless he can afford to pay the same price." ”

“…… Therefore, the Grand Guild and the military, Fah followed the path of the Rose Crusader back then, and added the underworld to vouch for her, although her later performance was also worthy of the expectations of those who were optimistic about her at the time. ”

Only then did Fang Yu understand the meaning of what the other party had said when he talked to An Luoser behind the door before. He was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Odin, ...... you plan to let me enter the Hall of a Thousand Doors?" ”

Odin threw a silver leaf in front of him—the proof of entry into the Hall of a Thousand Doors—but he replied, "You're not qualified—"

Seeing Fang Yu pick up the leaves, the king of warriors replied, "I am not an alchemist, and I have not entered the Hall of a Thousand Gates. All I know is that the place is located in the Summer End Tower—to the west of here, deep in the brown redwood forest. It's one of the most legendary places in the South. There are a thousand doors in the Hall of a Thousand Doors, but as for how many can be pushed open, each person's ability is different. ”

He continued: "Whether you can enter the Hall of a Thousand Doors depends on whether the alchemist can push open the first thirty doors, if you can't even enter the thirty doors, it means that you haven't even entered the door." He looked at Fang Yu and said, "If you can enter, it means that I am not wrong, but if you can't enter, it will be regarded as a reward for Fenris." ”

Odin seemed to remember something, and sighed leisurely: "In the early years, the tower keeper here owed me a favor, and promised to accomplish two things for me, and I used both opportunities in the Hall of a Thousand Gates. Even if it fails, the lives of 100,000 people of Fenris are worthy of this favor. ”

Fang Yu held the silver leaf, a little distracted for a while.

He asked in a daze, "So how many doors did Loofah push open back then?" ”

"Except for the underworld, Loofah's little girl told no one. But I don't think it's going to be a decimal number, and I've heard that no one in the history of their union has ever reached that number—including herself. ”

"Of course, Hell himself is nothing," Odin replied, "after all, there have been two craftsmen and ten kings in the history of their union. ”

can call the queen of the underworld nothing, in the country, I am afraid that only the king of warriors in front of him has this tone.

But at the moment, the plover's mind was not on this at all, and after listening to Odin's words, he became more and more curious about the Hall of a Thousand Gates, and only asked again: "Then Mr. Odin, there should be a record in the history of your guild, right?" ”

"Two hundred and thirty fans." Odin replied succinctly.

Fang Yu thought for a moment, and felt that although he was not as good as Loofah, at least he shouldn't be able to open thirty doors.

The thoughts in his heart were clearly expressed on his face. Odin scoffed when he saw it, shook his head and said, "Don't think too much, with your current level, I don't think it's easy to push open the first thirty doors-"

He paused: "This is one of the supreme trials of combat craftsmen, not to mention the electors, there are not many aborigines who have participated in this trial throughout the ages, almost all of them are unknown. There are even some that are already famous all over the world before entering the Hall of a Thousand Doors. ”

"Let's just say Loofah, when she entered the Hall of a Thousand Gates, she was also one of the newcomers who several big guilds were optimistic about," Odin looked up: "What about you?" ”

"You can sleep for a day and a night with a sip of elf wine—"

Fang Yuan's face flushed, and he couldn't help coughing. But what does this have to do with elven wine, except for the dwarves - most of the battle craftsmen do not drink alcohol, because it affects the calculation power. As for the dwarves, that's because these underground dwellers usually work part-time as miners and warriors.

These old-fashioned people are really high, just roll up their sleeves, pick up their tomahawks and go to hand-to-hand combat.

He coughed before asking, "But in that case, why did Mr. Odin bring me here?" ”

"Didn't I say that?" Odin replied, "It's mainly for Fenris's sake - and your combat power is a bit miserable, but you still have some potential, not hopeless." ”

Fang Yu listened to a black line, he was so unbearable, coming from the elven ruins, especially after the traveler's rest, he always felt that he could barely be regarded as a worthy person.

Of course, he wasn't ambitious enough to match the legendary geniuses of Loofah.

But it's not a single piece of rotten wood, is it?

In the mouth of the king of warriors, he was more like he was about to rot in the ground if he didn't save it. Fang Yu was faintly slanderous, feeling that the other party was exaggerating.

At least Fenris's battle, didn't everyone praise each other, the other party had clearly witnessed this incident at the time.

It's just that Odin glanced at him from the side, and saw his careful thoughts, and sneered:

"I remember the last time you said you were investigating Fenris?"

Fang Yu paused for a moment, indeed the last time he mentioned this matter was in that snowy cave. At that time, he was by the campfire, and when he talked about it with the other party, he hoped that the other party would pay attention to it.

Or at least keep Ragnarok from getting too close to the Shadow Throne—

After all, this King of Warriors was also one of the 'witnesses' of the Fenris incident in the first place, and he should have a deeper understanding of the events between the Dragonfire Guild and the Rainlistener than anyone else. But the result of the conversation at that time was that the other party only glanced at him at that time, but did not speak.

This also made him afraid to go deeper into the follow-up topic. Because he was worried that Ragnarok might have been too deeply entangled in this matter in the first place, and even in the Super Athletic League, after actually experiencing the events in the South, he didn't trust it so much in his heart.

But I didn't expect that the other party would suddenly take the initiative to bring up this topic at this time. Fang Yu looked at the king of warriors, and he didn't think about how to answer for a while.

Fortunately, Odin didn't intend to let him talk, and only continued: "Actually, I know more or less about Bailong's teaching," he looked at Fang Yuan, "but why didn't I talk to you about this topic last time?" ”

Fang Yu shook his head.

"And how many levels are you?"

"X.15...... Level 16. Fang Yu then remembered that he had been promoted by one level in Dulun, but he hadn't had time to spend his experience, so he hurriedly changed his words—so that his level would not be so thin in front of this king of warriors.

But Odin still looked at him speechlessly when he heard this: "Fifteen levels? ”

"Yes, it's level six."

"There's a difference?" Odin shook his head: "So what are other people doing at level sixteen?" What are you doing at level 16? You don't have a point in mind? Or do you think that the Worship of the Dragon Sect is a group of newcomers who can't deal with you? ”

"But—"

"Did you inform Stargate Harbor and Silver Vislan?"

Fang Yu nodded honestly.

Odin looked at him speechlessly: "So that's enough, that's exactly what is wrong with you, what do these things have to do with you?" You're just a newcomer, just do your duty, who do you think you are? Savior? ”

He ruthlessly pointed out this: "People are self-aware, and this is the most important point, and you should know what your first task is, which is to improve your strength." ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but be speechless.

Although what the other party said is indeed reasonable, but sometimes, doesn't this take the initiative to come to the door? It's the same in Dulun, it's also in Fenris—he's actually trying to improve his strength, of course—the problem is that when you think about it, it seems that he's the fastest to level up in these events.

After a Fenris incident, how many levels have you been promoted? After experiencing a Doriphin environment, how many levels have you leveled?

Does the average person have this upgrade speed?

Of course, the risk is also huge, if it can, in fact, Fang Yu is also willing to choose a more stable upgrade method.

But Odin, of course, did not know these indescribable complicated thoughts in his mind, and only glanced at the bed behind him, and then replied: "So honestly, don't think so much, there are seven days left before you leave the door, and you have one more day to rest - and then in the next few days, I will arrange a special training for you." ”

"Special training?" Fang Yu was stunned.

He couldn't help but wonder when a warrior could also give special training to alchemists. Or is it that the King of Warriors is particularly different, mastering some techniques that ordinary warriors can't master, so much so that alchemists can use them.

It was only Odin who looked at him deeply before he spoke: "Of course it's not just me, don't worry—I've found some people, and I'm going to ask them to give you a good consultation to see if you can still be saved—"

With that, he turned and pushed the door open.

Just after pushing the door open and walking out, Odin suddenly reacted to something.

The other party is only level fifteen now, so how many levels was he when he was in Fenris? He was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a feeling that he had heard it wrong. But when I looked back at the door, I was too embarrassed to go back and ask.

After thinking about it for a while, he shook his head and chose to leave.

……

"You want to go back?"

Ye Hua looked at the young man in front of him with a little surprise.

In March, the wind and snow in the north have long since stopped, but the snow is still covered in the vast mountains and forests, and from a distance, it looks white in the sun. But the process of melting snow has already begun, and the ice crystals turn into snow and flow into a nearby stream.

After the river thaws, there is occasional ice that flows upstream, and from a distance, the surface of the river is glittering.

Enan-Maudekaiser looked at the scenery in the distance, and after crossing the Holy Bow Peak, it was not far from the southern border. It had been the life he had always dreamed of, and now there was little to worry about, except that Fios's whereabouts were unknown.

But he glanced back at the north and shook his head:

"Lady Sophie showed me the armor, it was indeed my brother's armor, but it had only been a week or two since he had been missing in the snowstorm, and the armor had not rusted like that." He replied softly: "Although Du Lun has temporarily stabilized, Ye, you and I both know that this is just a calm on the surface, and the real problem has not been solved. ”

He paused slightly, as if he was a little hesitant, and after a while he spoke: "I'm worried about my father, no matter what my relationship with him is, he is my father. And you should know that my father is the key to stability in the south right now, and if he has any strengths and weaknesses—"

Ye Hua didn't speak, in fact, he didn't necessarily want the southern border to continue to be stable, because a stable situation was not necessarily a good thing for their current situation. He hoped that Enan would become a banner for the Old Alliance, and that the nobles of the South would join them.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for the Elector alone to maneuver with the Super Athletic Alliance, especially if the latter is allied with the Prime Minister's faction.

He originally hoped that Xingmen Port could intervene, but since the battle in Dulun, Xingmen Port has always maintained a strange attitude, neither intervening, but also not intervening to help clean up the mess of the Super Athletic Alliance.

This current situation made him more and more incomprehensible.

Ainan obviously also understood what Ye Hua was thinking, he was different from Fang Yu - it was not that he was naïve and ignorant of politics, but the relationship between the two made him not break this point.

He had already made up his mind, and only replied: "Drissy has Mr. Ye and Sylvid to take care of her, and I can rest assured that I have completed the Earl's commission." I'm also more worried about Fios, so I have to go back to Dulun. ”

The two have known each other for a long time.

Ye Hua obviously knew the young man's character very well, and nodded: "Okay, since you have decided, I will not persuade you anymore." It's just that Ed managed to get you out, and even he got in, and if you want to go back, don't you have an explanation for him? ”

Enan was stunned for a moment.

Only then did I think of the boy who saved him from the chaos that day.

He sighed softly.

……
