"A human house?" The Ancient Black Dragon King who had turned into a human form frowned slightly, and his heart suddenly became puzzled, "It's a pity that it has been eroded, and I can't tell when it was abandoned, what is there here that can attract the attention of the corrosion stains?"

Croce's eyes were slightly open, but his gaze was not focused. In order to avoid destroying the environment here, he did not act on everything in the ruins, but searched for the remaining clues with his mental power, "Huh, heh...... It's kind of interesting, but I didn't expect such a coincidence. ”

In the corner of the hut, under the collapsed walls, Crohyth found a mutilated notebook. The paper on which the notes were recorded had long since been turned to ashes by the ravages of corrosion, and even a third of the cover was mutilated. But on the cover of the remaining part, a familiar emblem that I had seen not long ago was presented...... It was the emblem of the Ellenor School of Magic.

Instead of staying in the Rift, Croce gathered his dragon power and flew southwest in his hidden form—though only one side, the primeval Black Dragon King remembered William's breath as it did in his notes.

......

When Crohyth stopped Eve's carriage, everyone in the caravan was stunned. The owner of the caravan had only left with Bluman and a small number of guards, and it didn't take long for him to hurry back and make the rest of the caravan, including the accompanying mercenaries, wonder, after all, the barren mountains and mountains were not a good place to do business. Now I saw a black dragon with a body length that could not see the end at a glance, and I could see the end of the caravan, landing less than twenty meters in front of the caravan, and the shock it brought to everyone was not a little bit. Whether it was the caravan steward, the guards and mercenaries, they all wondered if the owner of the caravan had provoked this black dragon and fled for their lives......

At this point, some interesting things are happening. The guards of the caravan were all so frightened that they all sat down on the ground in fright when they saw the true body of the Black Dragon King, and some even turned around and fled behind the carriage, shivering. The mercenaries hired by the caravan were also in two battles, and their hands holding weapons were trembling, but none of them fled.

"Oh, the mercenaries of the Kronos Empire? Crohyth didn't speak, but its voice was clear in everyone's minds. At the beginning, it only took advantage of the fact that Lisi was dormant in the "Dragon King Realm", and guarded the Ode Continent for hundreds of years, and it was extremely bored to help the young man who had royal blood but wanted to be a mercenary, but he didn't expect that Gisian would eventually succeed to the throne with the title of "Mercenary King", and finally created an organization like the Cronos Imperial Mercenary Guild, "Don't be afraid, I'm just asking the master of your caravan for a small favor." ”

"Your Majesty, what do you need me to do?" William had the privilege of seeing the true form of the Ancient Black Dragon King when he was attacked by the "evil of this world" a few months ago, and although he did not show humility at this time, his tone was full of respect.

"The little girl has told me about the Rift, and I have just returned from there, and I have found some remnants of yours that I need you to come with me to identify. Crohyth is not lacking in patience, and although he usually doesn't talk much, he doesn't mind explaining at this time, "As for your caravan, I'll send them back to Eleno City directly." ”

The tone of the Ancient Black Dragon King was irrefutable, and no one present dared to disobey its decision, but this did not mean that no one would speak at this time.

"Is it dangerous?" said Eve and Sheila in unison, and the terrifying shadows of the rift could not have been without fearing for William's safety.

"Nonsense, how can it be dangerous to help His Majesty Crocy!" William hurriedly spoke, for fear that the two he cherished would anger the Black Dragon King. He remembered the last time he had met, and although he had just praised the mercenaries who accompanied him, it had nothing to do with the caravan. What's more, the performance of those guards just now is really unbearable.

"It's okay, just looking for something, those ...... in the rift The enemy has been cleared by me. Croxith doesn't care about this kind of "offense", and it's unlikely that he will be angry about it, "If it goes well, we'll also return to Eleno City later, and you can wait at the Mage Tower in Lando." ”

Finally, after a sentence of explanation, the king of the black dragon spread his wings, and at the same time as the wind suddenly rose, a huge magic circle enveloped the entire convoy. Everyone in the caravan only felt a flower in front of them, and when they opened their eyes, they were already outside the gates of the city of Erenor, and they were under the gaze of the merchants and travelers.

"This ...... This...... How is this possible!?" There are a lot of spellcasters who come and go to Erenor City, maybe everyone in the caravan is not deeply touched, but a high-level mage who is lucky enough to see this scene needs to go through a process of reshaping the three views - even if he uses the large magic circle in the academy's teleportation hall, it is impossible to completely converge the fluctuations of the spatial elements, and the dozens of people and a few large carts that appeared out of thin air are as if they already exist here, but they have just been noticed. The academy instructor who happened to be passing by had never heard of anyone who could control the spatial element to such an extent.

......

Not to mention the sensation caused by the sudden appearance of the convoy outside Elleno, William had already returned to the rift with Croceth. Looking at the ruined hut, William felt a lot of emotion, which he had built when he was pursuing a dream that seemed ethereal and unthinkable to others. He lived here for several years.

"Have you ever found anything here?" said the humanoid Croceth stood behind William, "the shadows were drawn here by what you left here, but now, the thing that attracted them is gone. ”

William was amazed, although what he had studied seemed crooked to the other spellcasters, he really couldn't think of anything that could attract those terrifying shadows. At that time, he was only a middle-level spellcaster after all, and although the theories and research materials he came into contact with were unpopular, there were no more advanced mysteries or treasures, "Your Majesty Croces, those...... What exactly are shadows? What are their habits? I don't know anything about them, and I can't think of what they're attracted to. ”

"It's not 'them', it's 'it', it's a living individual, not a race. Croesis first corrected William's cognitive error before continuing: "The only thing I don't understand is that these things rarely target the continent of Oder, usually they will preferentially encroach on the surrounding secondary worlds, when you used to live here, did you study things with the atmosphere of the secondary worlds?"

"That seems to be ......," William whispered, as he wandered through the wreckage of the hut, looking for the location of the former study, "Ah! found it, here it was!" William said as he magically cleared the ground of the gravel in the area where he stood, and then lifted a layer of stone slabs that were extremely difficult for the caster to move, revealing the old but still glowing circle underneath.

"Oh, little Landuo's handwriting, I really didn't expect her to have such a formation attainment decades ago, no wonder I didn't notice it. Crocys had already seen that William was majoring in the green element, and the focus of his previous investigation was on finding the aura of the green element, coupled with the exquisite structure of this small magic circle that Landolia had set up back then, it was normal for the King of the Ancient Black Dragon not to notice it for a while, "What is hidden underneath?"

"Uh...... Be...... This thing. William's hands did not stop, and the six nodes on the circle were activated in a certain order, and then only a loud bang was heard, and the stone slab inscribed with the circle shattered into powder, and a square metal box that looked ordinary on the outside appeared in front of him. The entire metal box is made of Mithril with a purity of more than 90 percent, and the six breath isolation circles engraved on the six faces are also from the handwriting of Landolia back then.

William was actually a little embarrassed at this time, the things contained in the metal box, even if Croxis had not seen it, would definitely not be unfamiliar with the aura it contained. It was a small fragment of the "Bone of the Secret Words" that William had once intercepted. This thing was originally exiled from the "Necromantic Realm" to the Oder Continent.

"It's no wonder that it was what I had there...... But it actually targeted the 'Necromantic Realm'?Who gave it the confidence to think it could pry my authority?" Crohyth muttered to himself, his eyes couldn't help but bring a hint of worry, "It looks like I'll have to patrol my territory with a few little ones this time." ”

......

Liu Li strolled through the streets of Alenor City, and now only the squirrels were left with the four girls he took with him when he went out.

Heng plans to visit the Green Forest Tavern, a tavern run by elves that contains memories of her in Erenor City, and she feels that she needs a light glass of fruit wine to relieve the dizziness caused by being imprisoned in a black hole by a witch.

Fei Li was defeated under the gaze of the cat girl, this purple hair knew that Liu Li and the squirrel had not seen each other for a long time, and if she insisted on mixing at this time, she was likely to be scratched by the fried cat girl. In addition, she has just been promoted to the second rank of life, and she urgently needs to confirm her current strength to enter the realm, and it is a good choice to drag that violent loli to practice.

Fei Li was so conscious that the squirrel was incredible, she was still thinking about how to get rid of this purple hair that ran out from time to time to tease Liu Li, but she didn't think that she not only left by herself, but also dragged away the unconscious violent Lori by the way.

"Liu Li, do you think that purple-haired guy will have any conspiracy, she will be so kind?"

"You, if Fei Li hears this, maybe she will come back and haunt us for a day. Looking at the squirrel's suspicious look, Liu Li couldn't help but be a little funny, and gently scratched the cat ears on the head of the lover next to her, causing a pleasant sound of "purring" in her throat, "Anyway, you have really become a cat now, and when you go home in half a year, you have to remove your disguise, if it is still like this at that time, how should I explain it to your father?"
