In less than a year, the Byron knights have been acutely aware of one thing: there are people who do have a certain talent for making history and witnessing miracles, who are always keenly looking for the amazing secrets that have been buried, who are always inadvertently exposed to opportunities that can change history, and who seem to be able to encounter the question of the survival of the world on the road - their new lord, Gawain Cecil, seems to be such a person.

In just such a day's work, the lord actually dug up a strange creature from the ruins again-last time he dug up a big iron ball that could fly and talk, and this time he dug out an ancient witch spirit that could fly and glow, I really don't know what new things the lord will dig up if he continues to toss in this ancient ruin, but Byron pondered, even if he saw a giant dragon by Gawain's side next time, he would not be surprised.

In order to improve the speed of material recovery in the "Deep Zone of the Fortress of Disobedience", Knight Philip, who had just returned from Kant's Territory, was assigned to assist Byron in the inventory and transportation of ancient materials before he had much rest, the young knight stood in front of the stable operation of the magic door, looking at the ancient fortress hidden in the shadow world in front of him, and Byron stood next to him, while directing the soldiers to carry the equipment and specimens that the lord asked for recovery while sighing with his partner: "You say, How can our lords be so ...... What's going on? In the past few months, many strange things have happened to him. ”

Philip didn't hear the ridicule in Byron's tone, but immediately reminded him very seriously: "It's not the proper behavior of a knight to judge a lord in private—and isn't it a great blessing to be able to witness these miracles happen?" ”

"I'm not much interested in witnessing miracles, the more you witness this thing, the faster it dies." Byron snorted, then turned around and continued to direct the soldiers to pack and seal the ancient items they had brought out, and send them to the opposite side of the Magic Gate as soon as possible.

This ancient fortress is a huge treasure trove, unlike the empty dungeon in the current world, everything here is extremely well preserved, and many magic devices are even in a working state - although most of them will be useless like the Gondor equipment after the Demon Tide without the special energy supply system here, but the well-preserved ancient magic devices themselves are excellent subjects to study.

In addition to the intact ancient equipment, the samples of the wreckage stored in the various laboratories were also invaluable, and Gawain's order to Byron was to send everything that could be carried outside the Magic Gate in the shortest possible time.

These ancient relics will not be sent to the city, and Gawain has ordered a place to be opened up in the middle of the "Fortress of Disobedience" to serve as a research and storage site for ancient relics. Of course, considering the number of researchers in the territory now, these things can only be piled up in warehouses for the time being.

The protective wall of the "Deep Zone" has been re-raised, the body of the giant deer Amon is isolated from the outside of the facility, and there are no other samples of god tissue stored inside the facility, and the fragments of relics left behind by those "god killers" are not harmful to ordinary people, so the recovery work can be safely handed over to the soldiers.

Philip was a taciturn man, so Byron could only open the topic on his own: "Speaking of which, you've been busy working between Kant and Cecil for the past two months, how is the situation over there?" ”

Philip thought for a moment and replied with a straight look: "Padraic is a diligent and loyal man, and thanks to his efforts, the order of the Kant Collar has been completely restored, and it is developing well. ”

"You know that's not what I'm asking."

Philip glanced at Byron: "...... Kant was bound to become the property of the Cecil family, and the signs were already beginning to appear. Now almost all the commoners of Kant have regarded the Cecil family as their rightful protector and ruler, all the merchants in the realm have been bought and unified by Padraic, and the Artisan Guild has accepted the lord's employment and began to build the road from Kant to Cecil's - just as the lord had said. ”

Byron smiled: "...... There's really no smoke in the fire. ”

At the same time, in the lord's mansion of Cecil, Gawain saw Kamel, who had finished resting and was in a refreshed spirit.

After leaving the fortress of another dimension that had been sealed for thousands of years, Kamel's whole body seemed much more energetic - although he could no longer breathe the air and could no longer feel the touch of the breeze on his skin, the mere sight of the sunlight alone was enough to lift his spirits.

Of course, since he couldn't see the face of this ancient magister, Gawain judged his mental condition by the brightness of the other party.

In addition to Gawain and Kamel, there were also Rebecca and Hetty, the former was curiously circling around Kamel at this time, staring at the rune armor piece on the latter's body with wide eyes, while the latter carried a staff with a serious face, ready to knock Rebecca's skull at any time - if this girl didn't restrain this faux pas, Hetty would really have to resist going down with a stick to correct the family style.

"How does it feel to see the light of day again?" Gawain smiled and nodded at Carmel, then looked at his N+1 great-granddaughter, "Besides, Rebecca, can you stop going around?" ”

"Forgive this child's rudeness," said Hetty, with a helpless expression, "her curiosity is a little ...... Too exuberant. ”

"It's okay, I don't care," Kamel was a good talker, he shook his body slightly, the surface of the rune armor piece flowing with the luster of arcane energy, "this world...... A lot has changed, but nothing is more pleasant than seeing the sun again, and I saw a land full of life, where the people lived an optimistic and fulfilling life, which showed that there was a competent lord here. ”

"That's right, the ancestors are amazing," Rebecca suddenly looked proud when she heard someone praise her ancestor, "but you might be a little disappointed if you want to go somewhere else, this era is not as good as it was a thousand years ago." ”

"I've heard about the discontinuation and decline of technology, but there's a lot to learn," Kamel replied, "I've heard that it's a pioneering place, and there's a lot of work to be done, and I hope I'll be able to put it to use as soon as possible." ”

"Don't worry, you first need to understand this era, understand the current level of productivity and social structure of this era, especially understand the changes in human magic technology after the magic tide," Gawain said with a smile, "The magic tide has changed a lot of things, I don't know if you are an expert in magic devices, but I want to remind you, the magic technology of the ancient Gondor Empire has basically completely collapsed, and there is no possibility of repair, before you devote yourself to work, the first step should be to learn." ”

Kamel was silent for a moment, and a trembling voice came from his body: "I...... Expected. I can sense that the magical environment around me is different from a thousand years ago, and even many of the spells I have mastered now require some adjustment to cast, but I believe I can adapt to it quickly. ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and there seemed to be a hint of a smile in his voice: "What surprises me more than the changes in this era is the new lord I have sworn allegiance to...... It's amazing that you're a returning ancient. ”

When he was in the shadow world, Kamel didn't know Gawain's origin, he just thought that what he was in front of him was an ordinary human lord, and he didn't hear about the story of "the ancestor unveiled the coffin" from the self-familiar Rebecca until he saw the light of day again and came to this lord's mansion, which surprised him very much, but as a "remodeler" who challenged the three views himself, Kamel accepted Gawain's unveiling of the coffin very quickly.

He just couldn't help but sigh at the wonder of fate - the coffin could be lifted and one after the other.

Gao Wenxin said that he didn't just crawl out of the coffin, he had been hanging in the sky for 1.8 million years before, and these secrets that challenged the three views were not a big deal, so he laughed and lifted the topic: "Haha, this world sometimes needs some miracles - I have arranged a place for you to live, how about you live in this lord's mansion for the time being?" There are empty rooms here. ”

"If I don't bother," said Kamel politely, "but if I have the opportunity in the future, I'd like to build a mage tower for research and residence—of course, I'll figure it out myself." In a familiar environment, I will be more comfortable. ”

"Hetty has always wanted a mage tower of his own," Gawain couldn't help but glance at Hetty, who was a little embarrassed next to him, and nodded with a smile, "There will be a chance, there will be more and more mages in the territory, and one day I will divide the mage area into a special area." ”

After explaining some of the precautions of life and understanding some of Kamel's special survival needs, Gawain gave Kamel a suggestion: "As for how to adapt to this strange world, I suggest you go to Nicholas Egg of the Machine Building to find out that he has the same life form as you that is unimaginable to humans, and he has fully adapted to life in this era, and he is the same as the fortress of disobedience a thousand years ago...... There are some connections as well, and I think the two of you should have something in common. ”

"Connected to the Fortress of Disobedience?" Kamelton became intrigued by the strange name of the future colleague Gawain mentioned, "Okay, I'll go find him." ”

After Kamel left, only Gawain and the two great-great-greats were left in the room for a while...... Great-granddaughter.

"Rebecca, you were really rude just now," Hetty looked helplessly at the iron-headed girl who still looked innocent and seemed a little eager to catch up with Kamel to continue her research, "No matter how curious you are, you shouldn't be so offended by the new guest - especially since this guest is an ancient magister who has lived for a thousand years, and as a mage, you should respect him even more." ”

"I'm curious about the runes on his armor tablets," Rebecca said with a flat mouth, "Recently, I have been studying the optimization algorithm of traditional magic circles with Jenny all day, and when I see runes and other things, I want to study them reflexively......"

"The Gondor Empire has an extremely profound study in the field of runes and magic circles, although due to the collapse of the Deep Blue Mana Well, many ancient magic circles have lost their role in modern times, but their knowledge of runes is still far beyond that of modern people," Gawain looked at Rebecca and said, "Kamel's knowledge and experience, coupled with the logic and mathematics you have studied, I believe this will make the work of rune research a big step forward." ”
