In Cecilia's private boudoir, the windows are large enough to give it excellent lighting: in the morning, the whole room can be bathed in the morning light; And at night, the moonlight can also make the atmosphere of the whole room extremely holy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Probably because the bloodline in Cecilia's body has awakened to the level of the fifth stage, her preferences and personality have also changed a lot - at least, in Sean's previous cognition, Cecilia does not seem to like a person who likes this kind of holy light. Instead, she prefers to hide in the dim environment and study her magical knowledge, often staying in the dead house for days.

But at this moment, although it was indeed midnight, the whole room was still bathed in light.

It's not that the weather is abnormal, but the entire Oasis City is still in the carnival of Sean's return at the moment: those magical fireworks that continue to shoot into the sky reflect the entire Oasis City as if it were daytime.

Sean carefully tucked the quilt for Cecilia.

Looking at the sweet smile still hanging on Cecilia's innocent face, the corners of Sean's mouth couldn't help but lift slightly.

Today, he had a great day with Cecilia.

Perhaps because Sean kissed Cecilia, the little guy was in a state of dazed brain shutdown for the whole day, and no matter what Sean said, she would only nod. So, she ate two meals of chowder stuffy pot meat and still didn't complain, and the taste was still on the light side, not the spicy one she craved.

In the end, under Sean's coaxing, he went to bed early.

Sean, on the other hand, waited quietly in this room until he was sure that Cecilia's breathing had become steady and he had fallen asleep completely, and then he put down the parchment in his hand.

These parchments were densely packed with calculations, and in today's conversation between Sean and Cecilia, he already knew what was written on them.

It can be said that Sean's ability to regress early has a lot to do with these calculation formulas.

When he first went on an expedition to the surface world in the underworld, he invested a considerable amount of man-made products on the surface - such as today's cave demons, human-faced spiders, underground demon insects, and so on. However, after the failure of the expedition, these artifacts also escaped into the ground, so for a long period of history, the inhabitants of the surface world have believed that these creatures emerged from the tunnels dug into the underground world.

Although, in a sense, these artifacts are indeed the vanguard of the Underworld's invasion of the surface world - in fact, these artifacts possess a system of positioning coordinates. The biggest function of this positioning coordinate system is to facilitate the people of the underground world to determine the coordinate position of the surface, so that they can accurately open the Abyssal Path portal and transport the army of the underground world.

From a known system, the greatest role of the cave demons is to construct the path of the abyss; The value of the Underground Demon Worm is to dig up a space of sufficient scale to facilitate the Abyss Path to pass through the most difficult stabilization stage in the early stage.

However, it is a pity that the current underground world seems to have lost this command ability of positioning and teleportation, so these products left in the underground of the surface world are in a state of confusion: they have forgotten their mission, and only the purest survival instinct remains.

Cecilia, by coincidence, discovered this secret, and completed the reverse work of the Abyss Path portal according to the genetic coordinates carried by these creatures. Through this backward calculation formula, Cecilia easily completed the power requirement of the reverse control of the Abyssal Path portal under the Gorge Fortress - at least seventy percent of the energy transmission requirement was saved.

If the Void Empire is given another two years, then this portal can directly teleport an entire army into it if it is forcibly opened, or a super powerhouse - even if it forcibly increases the upper limit and teleports a plane powerhouse of the level of Kokilei over, it will not make Cecilia pay such a heavy price.

It's just that Cecilia, who is extremely eager to find Sean, can't wait for another two years.

Knowing Cecilia's efforts over the years, Sean's heart was naturally extremely moved.

If it weren't for him, Cecilia wouldn't have fallen into such a state of serious injury because of this—the current Cecilia would not be as strong as a tenth-order Sacred Realm powerhouse, let alone a Legendary Realm. Although she possessed the knowledge equivalent to that of a fourteenth-order legendary powerhouse and related magic skills, her magic fluctuations were extremely unstable, and her current physique was even so fragile that it was not much stronger than that of a silver master.

After making sure that Cecilia had fallen into a deep sleep, Sean got up and left the small house.

A team of Cecilia's Guards, who happened to pass by, saluted Sean, but after the salute, the team resumed patrolling and did not stop because of Sean's presence.

Sean didn't care much about this.

Because he knew that the Cecilia Guards were an army loyal to Cecilia alone, and even if he was the Emperor of the Void Empire, he actually had no authority to order this legion. Cecilia is the only one who can really command this legion, and whether it is Clov or the commander of Apollo who has now defected to the Void Empire, in fact, he only obeys Cecilia's orders.

Heatley had been waiting outside the door for some time, and she only came up to meet Sean when she saw him appear.

"Levi is not in danger of his life, but he is really not suitable for battle for a short time, so you leave him in the Underworld...... No problem? Heatley looked very tired, but given that she often had to run between the Underworld and the Surface World during this time, this tired look was a normal reaction.

Rather, if it weren't for Cecilia being the holy daughter of the goddess of life, I am afraid that she would not have been able to have such a powerful life function to support her to constantly travel back and forth between the two planes.

"There is currently Alexis in the underworld, those guys don't dare to make trouble, Levy's current role is more to maintain stability in the overall situation, which is a spiritual symbol." Sean replied, "I'd love to have him come back, but that Alyssa guy won't agree." …… She would never let Levi out of her sight for more than a minute. ”

Heatley sighed helplessly.

Regarding Sean's assessment, Heatley was noncommittal. In other words, she had long known that these so-called high-level leaders of the Void Empire had all kinds of problems and problems, and even herself, she had extremely strange mental problems. However, only Sean can endure their problems, and even trust them completely, instead of establishing a mechanism for mutual surveillance and trial.

It is precisely because of this that Sean will be the spiritual leader of everyone in the entire Void Empire.

"How's Cecilia doing?" Sean asked.

"The origin is injured, and it is not so easy to recover." Heatley replied, saying that she had told countless people these days, "At least, I don't have any good solution." …… Perhaps, only the legendary World Tree shoots can be completely restored in a short period of time. ”

The World Tree sprouts, the nine hundred and ninety-nine seeds that grew from the tree when the world was born because it absorbed a large amount of the power of the world's origin. These seeds can sprout and grow immediately after a little bit of vitality, and as long as they are carefully cultivated, these germinated seeds can grow into the tree of life and become a shelter for the elves.

And these sprouts that have been spawned by vitality are the sprouts of the World Tree.

A World Tree can only produce a maximum of 999 seeds that are closely related to itself, that is, 999 World Tree shoots.

However, at present, in the entire Miracle Continent, the best development trend is the fourth-order life tree - whether it is the Elven Empire of the Outer Continent, or the Savage Land, or even the Forest of Profound Knowledge of the Underground World. If the Tree of Life wants to transform into the World Tree, it must wait for the Tree of Life to progress to the fifth order and complete the entire stage of growth before it can initiate a growth transformation to the World Tree.

Judging from the current development trend, even the Life Tree of the Outer Continent Elf Empire will need at least thousands of years to develop into a World Tree.

For thousands of years, Cecilia has long since recovered, and she still needs the shoots of the World Tree.

"If the power of the Origin is infused......"

"I don't know." Heatley hesitated, but said, "No one has ever tried this before, after all. …… The wounds of the power of the source are not so easy to recover. However, Cecilia is still very young, so there is still a good chance of returning to the top. ”

"What I need is not a big chance, but a more definite result." Sean sighed lightly, "If it weren't for me......"

"You'd better not show that in front of Cecilia." When Heatley saw Sean's expression, she interrupted him when she opened her mouth, "Your expression is a denial of Cecilia's efforts and value, which will only make her more sad." ”

"I see." Sean was stunned for a moment, but nodded quickly, "It's true that I didn't care. ”

Heatley didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly.

There are some things that she only needs to remind once, and it makes no sense to say too much. And Heatley believes that if it weren't for the fact that only Cecilia's phoenix bloodline could interfere with spatial abilities, I'm afraid that it would not be Cecilia who paid the price for maintaining the spatial stability of the portal at that time, but someone else - whether voluntarily or forced, there were more than twenty legendary powerhouses gathered in the underground research institute at that time, and this combat power was no joke.

"So...... What's next for you? Heatley asked.

"What's going on?" Sean was a little puzzled.

"The development of the Void Empire has been completely stabilized, especially after your return, and no one will be stupid enough to continue to try to subvert the Void Empire now." Heatley is now considered to be the core high-level personnel of the Void Empire, so he is naturally very clear about the policy of the Void Empire, "According to Neil's decision, it will take at least thirty years for the Void Empire to develop and improve completely, and he means that it is best to spend these thirty years smoothly, Cecilia, William, and Hela are also very supportive of this decision, after all, the Void Empire is indeed not suitable for causing trouble everywhere now." ”

"Is the tree a big deal?" Sean nodded slightly.

According to the current situation, the development idea of the Void Empire is indeed the best to enter a period of peaceful development, after all, as long as the development period of these thirty years is passed, the entire Void Empire will completely enter a state of rapid development, and then it can be regarded as a complete foothold in the entire Miracle Continent and become a real Continent Empire.

"But before that, there's one more trouble to solve." Sean spoke, "The last ...... Troublesome. ”

Heatley knew what Sean was talking about, she nodded, and said, "The Priesthood is ready to go at any time. ”

Sean seemed to be about to say something, but his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the words became "I know." Thank you, Heatley. …… Although the oasis city is still partying, the Void Palace is still relatively peaceful, so you should rest early. ”

"Okay." Heatley nodded, "I've been living in this manor lately, call me if you need anything." Speaking of this, Heatley snorted a few times with some dissatisfaction: "Originally, I was supposed to live with Cecilia, because you came back, and I had to move out." ”

Sean smiled and rubbed Heatley's head lightly, "I'll donate a million gold coins to your temple, are you satisfied?" ”

"That's pretty much it." Although Heatley was still not satisfied, she thought that she was no longer just a saint, and she also needed to worry about the source of funds for her temple, so she had no choice but to give up.

After watching Heatley turn away, the moment Sean turned around, the smile on his face completely disappeared.

Instead, there was frost and murderous intent on his face.

He opened the door and stepped into Cecilia's house.

Cecilia's bedroom is on the third floor, and the few rooms are also on the third floor; The second floor has been converted into a huge library, and an entire floor is filled with various magical books. On the first floor, there is a living room, which is also used as Cecilia's reception room, and in addition to this is a trigger and four maids' bedrooms, all of whom possess the strength of the Golden Realm, and are specially selected from the Void Realm to be the protectors of assassination and counter-assassination methods.

But now, these four maids are in a coma, and I am afraid that they will not wake up in a short time.

Sean was standing in the living room, he didn't turn on the light—in fact, he didn't need to, and there was an extremely powerful man sitting in the living room as far as he could see. But the strange thing is that the momentum exuded by the other party can only be felt by him, even if it is Heatley, who has also stepped into the legendary realm, even standing less than thirty meters away from the other party in a straight line, he is completely unaware of his existence.

"Who are you?" Sean asked in a deep voice.

He knew that the other party deliberately let himself find out, because when he stood at the door just now, the other party's momentum of touching and closing obviously had a strong hint and warning meaning. Because of this, Sean sent Heatley away, and then faced the unknown visitor in front of him alone.

Given that the other party has such a powerful momentum and stealth methods that are not detected by outsiders, it is naturally not surprising that those patrolling Cecilia guards did not find this person.

It's just that Sean can't forgive that he didn't even find out how this person sneaked into Cecilia's house, if the other party wanted to be unfavorable to Cecilia......

The thought of this made Sean's heart shudder.

"I'm not as dirty as you think." As if sensing Sean's thoughts, the other party laughed, "I just came to you." ”

"Looking for me?" Sean's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Who the hell are you?" ”

Although I don't know why, when the other party speaks, he exudes a very subtle aura. In this aura, Sean could clearly perceive that the other party did not have any hostility, and his inner vigilance was slightly relaxed for some reason, and it seemed that he suddenly had a slight friendly impression of the other party.

"My name is Xu Qing." (To be continued.) )
