Chapter 168: Invitation
Jita stood behind Fang Yuan, quietly watched the female knight's every move, and whispered, "There are rumors that Silver Vislan has caught the line of the green dragon Mageri, and now it seems that it is not groundless. ”
Fang Yu nodded lightly when he heard this.
Indeed, the whole of Fenris is the natural realm of the Green Dragon Mageri, and although it is nominally owned by Kaorin-Ishurian, the inhabitants of this place prefer to trust their protector, the legendary dragon with a crush on humanity, rather than a sense of belonging to the kingdom. And this confidence is not without source, since the moment their ancestors landed on this island hundreds of years ago, they have been sheltered by the dragon's wings.
Therefore, it can be said that Yunliugang is the joint effort of the ancestors of this place and the green dragon Magrei, although for Mageri, it may be just a game of his whim.
Either way, it could change the dragon's supremacy on the island, and as if to suggest it, Fenris was actually the only region in the kingdom that did not have a royal consul.
And Mageri Toragotos is the natural consul here.
The San Peru Valley, which is its private domain, is symbolized by its special meaning as it rules it with its powerful Lost Chains. Now the people of Silver Vislan are able to manage the order of this place, and the meaning behind this is self-evident.
Unless it was the female knight named Sophie in front of her, who was babbling nonsense.
But Fang Yu didn't think that the other party would lie about this kind of thing.
Sophie seemed to be only attracted by the commotion here, and she was relieved to see that Fang Ou and his party had no intention of making further moves, but she glanced at the lizardman prince behind Fang Yu with some surprise.
"The Golden Hand?" She raised her eyebrows, "You're the lizardman of Andasok?" ”
But the lizardman prince was only slightly humble in front of Fang Ou, and in response to Sophie's question, it only glanced contemptuously at the human woman with its slender pupils, clutching its paws and saying nothing.
It was the royal family of the White-Headed Clan, the most outstanding warrior, how could it grovel before a human woman.
The female knight with a red ponytail behind Sophie saw this and wanted to take a step forward.
But the former was a little funny, probably guessing Tenarec's identity, she gently held the female knight's hand with her hand, signaling her to be calm, and then looked at Tenaric and said: "Blood Battle Marks, you are a warrior who passed the warrior trial, I am disrespectful." ”
Tenaric moved his eyelids and glanced at her.
"In addition, your golden hand is an ancient instrument, the legacy of the ancient sages, the carving method of the sun stone is very rare now, let me guess, you are the Andasok royal family, right?"
She took a step back and saluted Tenaric with the ancient etiquette of the lizardmen.
This action surprised everyone present.
However, others care about Tenarec's identity, a royal family of Andasok, and while many people don't know what an Andasok lizardman means—the guardian of the ancient forest, one of the ancient kingdoms that existed at the same time as the Numerin Elves, they at least understand what it means to be a royal family of an aborigine.
Because even in the large and small knightly principalities of Guta, a nobleman with real royal blood is also very rare and has a high status. Of course, the reverence here is roughly equivalent to the meaning of the giant panda in the eyes of modern people.
What surprised Fang Yu and his party was Sophie's insight.
Such a keen man, when they met Tenarek, in fact, no one else recognized the other person's origin except Miss Tata. But this little princess of Silver Vislan can assert the origin of Tenarik's identity in one mouth, although it is not complete, but it is not far off.
This ability to observe is a bit scary.
Fang Yu froze slightly, thinking to himself that this was the real genius from the Great Guild? He has been almost a little flustered these days, thinking that his talent can barely be regarded as outstanding, but it was not until this moment that he came to his senses a little.
Aitalia is so big, there are so many heroes on the earth, in front of the real powerhouse, he is really nothing now. In fact, the female knight in front of her is actually just a relatively outstanding rookie genius of Silver Vislan over the years.
It's far from being the backbone of this top guild.
And Silver Vislan, in the current Super Athletic League, is just the goalkeeper of the Super First-Line Guild, and it is far from being the strongest. Not to mention that behind each country, there are mysterious military departments, and the combined strength of the indigenous people, who far exceed the sum of the electors.
The only one of them who seemed calm was probably Tenaric himself, who still looked at the human woman without saying a word.
Sophie then spoke, "If you are a guest from Andasok, then if you wish, Master Magherie wants to see you." ”
"Mistress Magerie?" Fang Yu was surprised and couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about, and Mageri Torragotos?" The legendary dragon? ”
"Of course," Sophie raised an eyebrow, "who else, is there a second Majelli here?" ”
Hearing this, Fang Yu couldn't help but turn around and asked Tenarek, "Does it know you?" ”
The lizardman prince shook his head slightly, "No, but the dragons do have a deep connection with us. ”
"May I ask, then, what is the matter, and why would Magernie want to see it?" Fang Owl asked Sophie, "As you can see, Tenaric is our friend and a member of our group. ”
Sophie replied calmly, "For it is not your friend that Mistress Magelli wants to see, but every lizardman who comes from Andasok, and not only that, but also its kindred from Cape St. Huyen's arrival in this place." I think the lizardman must have felt in his heart why he came to this place, and that was why Mistress Magerie wanted to see them. ”
Fang Ou looked at Tenaric again.
The lizardman prince frowned, "I see, it seems that the guardians of this place have expected things to deteriorate to this point, and it seems that in line with Lord Er-Atta's expectations, the Sea of Shine is on the verge of collapse. ”
"The Sea of Shine?" Sophie froze at the word and curled her eyebrows suspiciously.
Fang Yu couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart when he looked at her, thinking that the reaction of the genius of the Grand Guild was similar to his own.
Tenarec's words were a little cloudy, but Fang Yu actually understood a little.
For the lizardman prince had said these things when he saw them—disaster was coming, the serpent's tail was about to appear, and the sea of sparkling was fading away. And everything behind this is the sign before the arrival of the third evil star.
Fang Yu had naturally heard of the Third Calamity, and the Dragon Witch's higher-level event catalog was still hanging on his mission system. It is clearly written that the third evil star has descended.
This is exactly what Tenaric said.
But that doesn't mean anything -
He had learned about Tenarek's intentions.
As the lizardman prince had previously said, it was the metaphor of the elder E-Atta, who had come to the island in search of a fragment of an ancient prophecy. But Tenaric himself couldn't tell what it was looking for, only that it might be beneath the 'Black Pilgrimage Trail'.
As for the metaphor itself, it is also full of words mixed with only the meaning of the lizardmen's language, which is obscure, or not incomprehensible at all. Some of them even Tenaric didn't understand what they really meant.
For example, the Sea of Shine.
It's a word peculiar to the lizardmen, and it seems that no one except the lizardmen knows what the Shining Sea is, and if it says Kukai, Kukai doesn't seem to be exhausted.
If it is said that it is the Aether Magic Network, but the Ether Magic Network is also very abundant in various places, and there is even a tendency to become richer and richer year by year, let alone disappear.
And if Tenaric were to explain what exactly the Shining Sea was, the latter would only tell them an even older word: "the door." ”
It's a bit confusing.
No way, in the long course of time, the lizardmen and snakes have forgotten too much knowledge. As they retreated into the jungle, the ancient empire crumbled, and some of the records of the past were reduced to rubble and dust, and most of them were lost in the process of word of mouth.
Nowadays, the preservation of knowledge by the lizardmen is more like a tradition full of mystical rituals, and how much of these traditions are useful information is not even understood by the lizardmen themselves, who are the transmitters.
Fang Yu himself could only guess, vaguely feeling that this might be part of a huge series of missions.
However, he didn't have much excitement in his heart, as there had been a number of world missions in Aitalia in the early years, and the smaller ones were often able to permanently change the balance of power in a region - such as the Battle of Byrne more than a decade ago.
However, the world quest is not a main line, but a regional quest chain composed of countless related quests, but when it really appears, as the world pattern changes, countless quests will spring up like mushrooms after a rain.
People don't need to take the initiative to look for it, and the incident will come to the door, good or bad, not up to people. As for a quest line running throughout, and even something like an invisible hand picking out the protagonist in the dark, it's impossible for adventurers to just imagine a lustful touch.
Thirteen years ago, the heroes of the Battle of Byrne were not the first to intervene in the war, nor were they even the leaders, most of them, such as Sir Roban, were only later involved in the ripples of the event. And the elven princess Brian joined the war with the elves of Evan Quinn later.
Therefore, to put it bluntly, the times create heroes, it is better to screen heroes, and those who really stand out in the end are all people who have heroic qualities and abilities after the big waves and sands.
Therefore, if you want to rely on finding an important task and becoming the center of the whole event in one fell swoop, it is better to put the pillow a little higher so that it is convenient to dream.
Fang Plover had been in the community for a long time, so he naturally understood the underlying logic of Aitalia's world quest, so although he vaguely felt that Tenaric might have a world quest line on him, he didn't pay much attention to it except to ask.
The bigger the secret, the more risks are involved, so it's better to ask yourself if you have the strength before seizing the opportunity.
As for Fang Yu himself, he obviously thinks that he does not have this strength.
What's more, he has another important quest line on his body, and as long as the dragon witch's quest line is not out of his mind, he can see that this quest is inextricably linked to the advent of the so-called third evil star.
But about this task, he himself is also carrying out it with the mentality of knowing more, but intervening less.
Of course, there was no point in escaping, and there might be room to turn back on the tasks he had taken over from Mazak when he left the Traveler's Rest, for he was just an insignificant messenger at that time.
But after Doriphon's party, he had a face-to-face with the dragon witch, and after the illusion disappeared, the other party's intimidation, of course, he would not be naïve to think that it was a bedside story to lull him to sleep.
Or Nicol Bolas, or Misu would forget about him, which is obviously impossible.
And the half of the crown mark in his hand, the Cangzhihui in the other party's mouth, also looks like a big trouble.
But all in all, his plan now was to take one step at a time, try not to provoke these troubles, and beware of getting himself into the center of the vortex too early to get away with it. But if he can understand some relevant information, which can make him plan and be vigilant in advance, he will naturally be happy to see it.
Sophie paused for a moment.
Fang Yu was also silent for a moment, and only then did he straighten out a little bit about the cause and effect of this matter.
He had a vague feeling that the legendary dragon Fenris seemed to have some inside story, and if it weren't for that, the other party wouldn't have specifically mentioned that Tenaric would cross the sea to Fenris at this time.
And according to the princess of the silver Westland, it wasn't just the Andasok family of lizardmen who came to this island.
That's where it gets interesting.
Because the ancient culture of the lizardmen has been divided for thousands of years, different lizardmen have now formed very different civilizations across Aitalia, and most of them have long since been cut off. The more famous ones are Andasok and St. Huyen, two very different cultures.
The night lizards on Fenris Island would not identify with Tenaric as their kindred, compared to the vice versa.
Speaking of the night lizards, Fang Yu's mind about the abnormality of those guys flashed, according to Grant, the attacks of the Chinese New Year's Eve lizards are particularly frequent this year, and they seem to be in collusion with the blood alliance oath, I don't know if this is also related to the current matter?
In the end, Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little curious about whether this inside story was about the 'Shining Sea' in Tenarek's mouth, or the Third Scourge Star, or whether the two themselves were related.
Of course, the final decision on whether to meet the legendary dragon or not is not in his hands.
So Fang Plover turned his head to look at Tenarek.
But the prince of Andasok looked unusually humble in front of him, and he looked at Sophie with his slender pupils, and sizzled, "I can go to meet the Guardian, but this is my respected human brother, and he is also the Chosen One, and here his decision is equal to mine." ”
Hearing this, Sophie glanced at Fang Yu very curiously, as if she wanted to see what was unusual about him from this young man who was not tall and wore a mask. The Chosen One—It was the first time she had heard of the term, but Magherrie's relationship with them hadn't told the Silver Wislan hierarchy much, so she didn't understand what it meant.
Just looking at Tenarek's attitude, it seems to be very solemn indeed.
She thought for a moment before replying, "Who is this?" ”
"Char," Fang Yu coughed and replied, for fear that the lizardman would reveal his true name. He knew that the Ten Guilds had a cooperative relationship with the military, and if the military wanted him, information about him might have already reached these guilds.
"Char-Aznable."
"Alright then, if Mr. Char is interested, you can also come along."
Fang Yu was naturally interested.
In fact, even if there was no such episode, the purpose of his coming to Fenris was to meet the legendary dragon. If there is any living legend in Kaulin-Ishurian, the heroes of the Battle of Byrne may not be counted, but the rich green dragon Mageri must be counted as one.
Before he entered this world, he was thunderous about the other party's name.
Mageri is one of the few people in the world who has seen the three founders of Kaurin-Ishurian - the Elven King Isengard, the owner of the Dawning Sword, and the owner of the Celestial Crown, the King of the Holy White, Corinth, plus the existence of the legendary dwarven hero Warit the Dragonslayer.
It existed at a time when the elves died, Essorin sank, and the world was in turmoil, which was a legend in itself. And it is the witness of this legend, and perhaps only it can truly understand the truth that has long been hidden under the long scroll of history.
"But you had an argument about buying something," Sophie said politely, "and now that those people are gone, I'm not in a hurry here, and I can wait for you to finish your business." ”
After she reminded Fang Yu, Fang Yu remembered the cause of this series of events.
And when Sophie revealed Tenaric's identity before, those people who swore the blood oath seemed to be bored and left first, and before leaving, they naturally didn't care about buying any explosive crystals.
But I didn't expect them to be cheaper, and the people of the Blood Covenant Oath may be dispensable for this batch of explosive crystals, but these things are too important to Fang Yu and his party, after all, they don't have a big guild behind them.
The female knight also seemed to see this, so she kindly reminded her.
This made Fang Yu have a good impression of the other party, it seems that not everyone in the members of the Grand Guild is arrogant and rude, and there are also people who are so careful and considerate of others. He hurriedly thanked the other party before going to negotiate with the seller.
The crossbowman was so confused by the sudden change that he was ready to leave first, but he didn't expect Fang Yu to still plan to buy his things, and he didn't know if he was taken aback by the identities of Tenaric and Sophie, so he actually took the initiative to sell them at a little discount.
This made Fang Yu a little surprised.
And the female knight over there was really not in a hurry at all, but her companion knight frowned, bit her lip and seemed to say something. But the girl seemed to have expected it, and turned back to stop the girl with the red ponytail and said:
"Be patient, Akane."
"But—"
"Okay, I know you're worried about me, thank you, Akane. But it doesn't matter, there's still time. ”
"I'm not ......" The girl seemed to be embarrassed by her thoughts, and lowered her head to look at the tip of her halberd, her agate-colored eyes motionless.
