Chapter 16: The Silver Ring

"What does he mean?"

In the dimly lit treasury room on the top floor of the Royal Castle of Noze, Reriol sat impatiently in a chair and drank tea. Nearly two months have passed since the end of the Coup d'état in Nozer, and it has taken more than 20 days to stabilize the regime (the execution of Wells IV and his old faction, the replacement of the Six-Striped Flag with the blue eagle head flag of the Gruton family, the cleaning of the battlefield, and the stabilization and reorganization of the war-damaged areas).

"Your Majesty, that 'Your Excellency' means that for the time being, everything has to wait for the right time. Anufara stood respectfully to the side and whispered.

"The Guardian is dead, and the addition of Tanatos to my Nozer army is enough to sweep across the entire Tansforg Continent, who dares to stop me!" the corners of Reliol's mouth twitched, and the teacup in his hand was pinched into powder with a "ping" sound. This old immortal of Tanatos obviously regarded himself as a puppet emperor, but now he still has to take into account the seven holy envoys of Silver Shield City when he rushes out his troops, so he still has to use the power of the six swords of Tanatos to be fully sure.

"Rest easy, we at Tanatos will deliver on our promise to you. "Suddenly there was a silver-haired boy in the room. The boy had a grim face, dark blue eyes, and a wicked smile under his delicate features. He was not tall, only 1.6 meters, with a slender build, wearing light armor, and his hands crossed as if he had stepped out of thin air. In the bright light, the "V" mark on the breastplate scattered a faint glow. He was one of the Six Swords of Thanatos, and was sent to "assist" Reriol after the capture of Noze.

"Hmph, it's not your turn to speak here!" Lerior tilted his head in a condescending manner, "Why should I believe you?

"It is true that I have no name, but what my name is, it is just a code name that exists in the world, and it doesn't matter at all. The boy's face did not change, and he approached step by step, "The scabbard is invisible, but everyone who knows my sword position has become the soul of my sword, and you are not worthy of me to draw my sword... Or do you want to kill yourself?" A thick murderous aura erupted in an instant, and Anufara was so startled that he disappeared into the shadows in an instant. In an instant, the killing intent was everywhere, and several sword qi slashed down on the curtain behind Lei Lior.

After the curtain was broken, more light poured in—the curtain was drawn in the shape of a cross and shone on the nameless boy.

This, this is how many revenants have been ravaged to evolve the killing intent to such a realm, such a fast sword speed, such a precise sword technique! Anufara re-emerged from the darkness, and was shocked by the scene in front of him. You know, there is a harmless boy standing in front of him, and the contrast is too great!

"What I can reveal to you now is that there are only four of the seven holy envoys left. The boy sat down across from Relliol and remade him and himself a new pot of tea, "The power of Silver Shield City is rapidly declining. ”

There are only four of the seven holy envoys left? Could it be that the Six Swords did it... No, the six swords are under the watchful eye of my ears, maybe he is lying to me, this is just a crude delaying tactic, Thanatos should have another purpose... Reriol wasn't interrupted by the astonishing message, his mind was leaping and spinning.

"The real culprit is not my Tanatos man, nor is he at our behest. The boy saw through Reriol's concerns, "Nordi Thorox has returned to the era, and now Serdia has surpassed the threat coefficient of Silver Shield City and has become the biggest uncontrollable factor. ”

"Thorox!" Reliol couldn't hold his breath anymore and almost shouted the name, the legendary figure of the First Age who had led the entire Legion to nearly unify Tansforg on his own.

"Yes, we have to wait and see what happens until the situation at Serdia is clear. The boy's evil smile resurfaced, "Besides, there's another interesting thing in Silver Shield City that we need to deal with. ”

......

An island group to the south of the Secret Forest, Chaoyang Island.

Black smoke rose from the aboriginal settlement in the center of the island, wooden houses were set on fire, weapons and corpses were scattered on the ground, and the primitive tribe was completely destroyed by the aborigines led by Marcas.

"Chief, come and see, there's a treasure chest here!" the bald head waved excitedly as he stood in front of the door of the largest wooden house.

"Good. Marcus smirked, took some of the miscellaneous people and followed the bald head inside.

The room was the bed of the local chieftain, and under the bed was a large wooden box that looked extremely heavy, and it seemed to contain a rich treasure.

"Quick, open up!" Marcus was about to jump for joy, his years of looting had honed his ability to discern "treasures".

"Okay. The bald head rolled up his sleeves and pants, and opened the treasure chest with a momentum.

"Huh?" The bald head and Marcus stared wide-eyed, and there wasn't even a fart in it, except for another small treasure chest!

"Why are you still stunned!" Marcus slapped the back of his bald head in frustration.

"Okay, okay!" the bald head was stunned for a moment, nodded and vigorously opened the second layer of treasure chests.

", how can there be another layer!" Marcus pushed away his bald head fiercely, rolled up his sleeves and simply turned it over himself.

The fourth floor... Fifth floor... Sixth floor... The twelfth floor... Twenty-one layer... This box was like a trick, and after turning over a full thirty-five floors, it had become the size that could be grasped in one go.

"This chief, is there a hole in his brain!" Marcas, sweating profusely, finally didn't have to dig through the treasure chest after opening the thirty-sixth layer of the chest in hatred - because this was the last layer, and it contained a bright silver ring with turquoise gas circulating inside.

Marcus stared at the ring for a moment, and felt like he was going to be stuck in it—although it was not made of gold, the ring had perfect lines and a peculiar appearance. Marcus examined the ring for a moment, then removed a gold ring from his index finger and put it on without thinking.

When the finger was inserted into the ring, the ring emitted a faint green light, followed by the blood vessels of the index finger, and the green light gradually covered Marcas's whole body through the transportation of blood.

"Boss, are you alright?" the bald head was horrified by the strange sight in front of him.

"Hmm..."Marcas's eyeballs were also wrapped in green light, and then his eyes went black, and he collapsed to the ground with a "snap", unconscious.
