Inside the palace and outside the palace seem to be two completely different worlds. Outside, there are dim underground ruins, ugly monsters roaming everywhere, and even the air smells of decay, of course, you can also think that it is the smell of history. But when Silas pushed open the heavy door and entered the magnificent palace, she was greeted by a world of extreme splendor and splendor.

As if she had arrived in heaven, she had never seen so many treasures piled up in the corners of the road like stones on the side of the road.

The ground was made of an unknown rock cut into a patch of stone of uniform width and length, and even with his best efforts, he could not leave any traces on it, and Silas could even feel the obvious fluctuations in magic from the stones.

The walls were lavishly forged from monolithic pieces of gold and pure gold, depicting patterns in mythril and an unknown blue-blue metal, Silas didn't know what they meant, but even the raw materials that made up the building materials were enough to make her understand how terrifying the power and wealth of this ancient empire once was.

The dome in the palace is at least thirty meters high from the ground, and even after tens of thousands of years, the magic wall lamps set on the surrounding walls and the magic candles hanging in mid-air have not changed in the slightest, and the abundant light illuminates the entire palace interior extremely brightly through the reflection of the walls and columns, leaving almost no shadows.

On both sides are thick pillars large enough for five people to surround them, obsidian bases, lapis lazuli columns, and then inlaid with jade and pure gold, combined to form the appearance of a giant dragon surrounding.

Between the pillars is a statue that is more than ten meters high, the material of the statue looks like some kind of jade, Silas can't tell which material it is, but it is extremely soft and silky to the touch, and even faintly can feel some elasticity, as if it is like human skin and muscles.

Each statue was wearing a large amount of equipment, and Silas could tell from the glow from the equipment that each of them was at least Red Rare, but unfortunately, the equipment was too large for the player to use.

But that didn't disappoint Silas, because in addition to the equipment, there were many display cases more than a meter high at the foot of each statue, which were filled with various props, books, and collectibles that looked like antiques!

To be honest, Silas can't wait to stuff all these things into her backpack, but she only has a small space bag on her, and the independent space she can provide is only about three cubic meters, even if she is all stuffed, she can't take away a hundredth of what is here!

She had to resist the urge to start searching right away, and moved on, in search of the treasure that Intgula wanted most.

In the deepest part of the palace stands the tallest statue, half as tall as the others. The statue depicts an extremely handsome middle-aged man with typical Lothric features: a high nose, long, pointed ears, perfect body proportions, and a third eye at the center of the eyebrows.

It is said that every Lothric performs an eye-opening ritual at birth, and the priests of the temple will open the third eye of the newborn under the gaze of the two goddesses, which allows the owner to see the truth of the world clearly, whether it is the flow of magic or the operation of power. It was because of this eye that Lothric was able to stand out among the many ancient creatures and establish the powerful kingdom of Lothric, ruling nearly half of the world of Ntagri in ancient times.

The statue is Shatar, the emperor of the Shahra Empire, who led the remnants of Lothric to Jerimanca and established the empire with his own hands, and he also led the Shahra's people in a six-year war against the elves, and was finally sealed by the long ears.

At the foot of the statue is a gorgeous jade coffin, but it is not Shatar, the lord of the yellow sand, who is lying inside, but a beautiful woman, through the crystal clear material of the jade coffin, it can be seen that this woman lying in the jade coffin does not have a third eye.

The lid of the jade coffin was engraved with a text that, if Silas knew the ancient Lothric script, would have found that it was the lyrics of the song that Yakumo had sung on the dome of the temple!

Only Yu Bin knew that the woman lying in the jade coffin was actually Shatar's lover, a slave who was regarded as a pariah!

In the middle of antiquity, at the height of the glory of the kingdom of Lothric, every Lothric regarded himself as the darling of the goddess, and in their opinion, only by opening the third eye could he be qualified to be called a Lothric, otherwise he could only be called a lowly slave, like those elves with long ears, worthy of only the worst rooms, eating the cheapest food, and doing the lowest jobs.

The Shahra Empire, which inherited the traditions of Lothric, was no different in this regard, and the Shahra Empire, which was dominated by the remnants of Lothric, lamented the destruction of his homeland while clinging to ancient traditions and was unwilling to change.

Emperor Shatar was very worried about this, believing that the new Shahra Empire should inherit the knowledge and technology of Lothric, rather than this inexplicable superiority, which could no longer bring them the slightest help after the destruction of their homeland. But the power of tradition is so great that even Shatar, whose prestige is in high esteem, cannot overthrow it immediately.

Coincidentally, among the remnants who fled with Shatar were some former untouchables, including a woman named Morian. In the process of fleeing, Shatar fell in love with this kind-hearted and optimistic woman, but Morian's status as a pariah forced Shatar to hide the relationship deeply.

After he had established the Shahra empire and gained enough prestige, Sha'tar decided to make his relationship public and marry Morian as empress. On the one hand, it is to free his lover from the status of a pariah, and on the other hand, it is also to leverage the roots of ancient traditions through this matter, so that the untouchables and commoners can obtain a more equal status. With the destruction of the kingdom of Lothric, the goddess of the two moons can no longer bestow gifts on the Lothric, and the success rate of newborn eye opening has been reduced to a very bad level, which has led to a significant increase in the number of untouchables.

But Shatar failed!

The priests of the temple, who held religious power, strongly opposed Shatar's move, believing that it was a subversion of tradition and an attempt to turn the untouchables into masters of their higher people, and were bewitched by the priests, and the commoners of the Shahra Empire unanimously opposed Shatar's marriage to Morian.

Shatar did not dare to take risks due to the fact that the civilians who succeeded in opening their eyes generally possessed more powerful strength, not to mention that this was the time when the elves who had expanded outward began to make contact with the Shahra Empire, and in the face of possible conflicts, Shatar was unwilling to make the entire empire pay a heavy price because of this decision.

Through negotiations with the priests, Shatar relented, promising to reopen Moriam's eyes through some special means, and as long as Molian succeeded in obtaining a third eye, the priests would no longer oppose her becoming a noble queen. If Jariam opens her eyes again, it means that the untouchables will also have the ability to obtain a third eye through a new ritual, which will significantly weaken the boundary between the untouchables and the commoners, which is a good result for Shatar.

Unfortunately, after years of experimentation, Shatar still couldn't get Morien to get a third eye. As a last resort, the emperor could only achieve this through some kind of magic spell, and to use this magic means that a large number of lives need to be sacrificed, and the power of these sacrificers is extracted, and the blood in Morien's body is stimulated through a huge life force, so that she can obtain a third eye.

Of course, Shatar couldn't have used his own people to make such a sacrifice, so he set his sights on the long-eared elves. In his opinion, those elves are all slaves of the Kingdom of Lothric, so now for the future of the Sahra Empire, these lowly creatures should give up their resistance and give their lives with gratitude!

But he didn't realize that the elves who had gained independence were no longer the docile slaves they had been!

In order to verify the reliability of this method, Shatar captured a large number of elves and used them for sacrifice. The ceremony ended without incident, but the results were not ideal, with less than a 30% chance of successful eye opening through this method, and the victim's life could even be in danger if it failed.

Such a low success rate naturally could not be accepted by Shatar, and while he improved this technique, he consciously spread it. When a large number of untouchables of the Shahra Empire learned of this, they immediately caused a rush to capture elves.

In order to gain a third eye and get rid of the status of untouchables, the Shahra Empire even appeared in large slave trappers to capture elves all over the continent, and soon even dwarves became the targets of these slave trappers. The spontaneous sacrificial rituals of the untouchables not only greatly increased the strength of the Shahra Empire, but also allowed Shatar to obtain a large amount of experimental data, which provided him with important help in further refining the technique.

But such a reckless slave hunt finally angered the elves, and under the leadership of the elven king Gwen Rodman, the Longears and the dwarves formed an alliance and launched a war against the Shahra Empire.

After a six-year war that ended in the defeat of the Shahra Empire, Emperor Shatar did not give up on improving this evil technique even at the last moment, and before being sealed by the elves, the emperor used all his strength to save his lover in a jade coffin, waiting for the day when he would wake up from the seal. He vows that by that time, he will make Jasmine a true Lothric and then have a grand and gorgeous wedding to marry the woman he loves the most!

In the previous life, after the resurrection of the Shahra Empire, players spent years piecing together the truth from various clues and documents. But at that time, Shatar, the lord of yellow sand, had been successfully promoted to a god, and by sacrificing a large number of players, Morian was also promoted to a goddess with weak divine power, and although the resurrected Shahra Empire dissipated again under the attack of the elves, but under the pressure of the two gods, Shatar and Morian, the long-eared people had to pinch their noses and acquiesce to Shatar's existence.

Of course, there is no one in the world of Ntagri who needs to rely on this kind of magic to activate the third eye, which is one of the important reasons why the elves are willing to make peace with Shatar. Shatar wisely made a promise not to teach this magic to other people or gods.

And now, relying on Yu Bin's conscious guidance, the Devouring Snake has not discovered the secret, but the large amount of inheritance and wealth that an ancient empire may have left behind is enough for them to pay a lot of effort for it.

Especially for Intergula, there is one thing that is more important than the equipment, wealth, knowledge, or technology, and that is the bloodline of the Lothric, known as the Ancient Gods!

In this day and age, even a hint of ancient elven blood is enough to make a slave become a strong man, compared to being able to successfully obtain the blood of a Lothric, it is a step up for the player. You must know that in ancient times, hero-level strength could only be regarded as the most ordinary. Legends are not as good as dogs, legends are everywhere, demigods are nothing, and becoming gods is the end! This is not for nothing.

Silas ventured into here to gain access to this ancient bloodline! Compared to that, the treasures and props that I saw on the display cases were nothing good at all!

And now, with a living Lothric remnant lying in front of him in the jade coffin (Silas doesn't know who Jasmine is), what better target? Although the corpse in the jade coffin did not have a third eye, Silas believed that if she could lie here and be protected by the treasure, this woman must be one of the noblest people in the Shahra Empire, and maybe even the wife of Emperor Shatar!

After taking a few deep breaths on his chest to make sure that he would not have any accidents due to being too excited, Silas cautiously walked to the jade coffin, reached out to put the lid on the coffin, and slowly pushed the crystal clear jade coffin open.

A dusty aura poured out from the jade coffin and quickly dissipated into the palace.

At such a close distance, Silas could clearly see that even though the woman lying in the jade coffin had been sleeping for tens of thousands of years, her body seemed to remain in the state it was in before she fell asleep, and there was no trace of time left on her body.

This was a huge surprise for Silas! After testing the lack of any mechanism in the jade coffin, she took out a sharp dagger and a reagent bottle for alchemy, and stretched it out towards Mo Li'an, who was lying in the jade coffin.
