Alan walked alone in the corridor of the inn, towards the large room.

His steps were very light and silent, and even if he was a strong man, he couldn't notice his movements.

Walking to the door of the house, Alan stopped. He reached out and grabbed the knocker, a little hesitant. After a while, he finally pushed the door open gently.

In the room, a gracefully dressed woman with her hair tied up was sitting on the edge of the bed with her back to the door, holding a blue magic robe in her hand and mending.

Allen's mother, Lilith, is the head of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce. Outside the male protagonist and inside the female protagonist, the military affairs of the Lionheart family are all presided over by Raymond, but the Chamber of Commerce under the Lionheart family is supervised by Lilith. The Lionheart family has been able to develop steadily in the past ten years, and Lilith has played a big role.

As Alan remembers every year, Lilith would sew a dress for him by hand, sometimes in summer and sometimes in winter. In Allen's space ring, there is a dress sewn by Lilith, which is the treasure of the original owner of the body, and when he was in Knicks City, he would take it out every day to look at it, but he was never willing to wear it.

Now Lilith was sitting with her back to the door, sewing magic robes, and on the bed there were five clothes neatly stacked, some teenager and some youth...... These are the ones that Lilith sews and piles up every year since Alan left home.

In my memory, the occasional gentle smile of the Silkworm Fairy, as well as the figure of the Silkworm Fairy, coincided with the woman in front of her. The deep attachment of the original owner of the body to the woman in front of him in the fragments of Alan's memory also exploded at this moment. He looked at the woman's back, tears streaming uncontrollably...... The woman finally sensed the movement, turned her head suspiciously, and saw Alan standing in the doorway with a young man and an archmage robe...... "Allen......" Lilith put down the needle and thread in her hand.

"Mother. Alan also felt an inexplicable choking in his throat and walked over.

Lilith stood up and hugged Allen's head directly: "Ellen, my child, you are finally back......" The children are all flesh that fell from their mother's body, and after nearly six years of separation, Lilith finally saw her child again!

Somewhere lonely in Allen's heart, he has been locked tightly, when facing Raymond, he is respectful and silent, when facing Rashid, he supports each other, when facing Yedaisy, he loves Yedaisy like a precious treasure, and when facing Pachelaire, he flirts with every possible means to amuse the Valkyrie...... All his feelings seem to be vented, but only that loneliness is an exception! The loneliness of drifting in another world can only be borne by himself! I can't tell anyone!

Embraced by Lilith in his arms, in the memory of one-third of his body, the ups and downs of the original owner of the body leaving his hometown to study finally broke out, along with the loneliness of his drifting in another world, and the depression of being forced to go away to the Orc Alliance, erupted together, like a flash flood!

"Mother. Alan called again this time, but he was really calling, the vague image of his mother in his memory, the image of the silkworm fairy, and Lilith completely coincided.

"My child......" Lilith was also holding Alan in tears. There is no mother in the world who doesn't care for her children, Alan left home when he was a teenager, and he hasn't come back for almost six years, how can he say that he doesn't work hard! Although Lilith doesn't know the details of Alan, she also feels distressed when she thinks of the torture that Eren may have!

An hour later.

"Does it fit?" asked Lilith looking at Alan, a little nervous.

Alan is trying on the clothes that his mother Lilith has made for him in the past few years, and except for the two that he can't wear when he is fifteen and sixteen years old, the other three can be worn.

"Fit. Alan patted the clothes, this dress was the magic robe of a seventh-order mage, and Lilith made it this year.

"But I didn't know that you had already become an eighth-order archmage, and the style of the magic robe was not right. Lilith sighed. But then a smile changed to her face...... The son went to Nix City alone to study, and with the blessing of the gods, he met the powerful Dharma Sage! The Dharma Sage saw that his son was diligent and hardworking, so he was moved by compassion, and took his son as a disciple and taught him skills. The son also competed, followed the teacher out for more than five years, practiced a skill, and when he came back, he had already become an eighth-order archmage! An eighth-order archmage, in terms of lethality, can be compared with the ninth-order Wang Wuxiu. No matter where they are, the Eighth-Order Archmage is the object of invitation from various forces...... My son has become an archmage before he reaches twenty, and his future achievements are absolutely immeasurable! In the past 10,000 years, there are only a few people who can become an archmage at this age! I think of the past when my son was called 'tiger father and dog' and 'unfortunate family', and that he 'chose the wrong profession' and 'ruined his future'...... Lilith couldn't wait to catch all those who had said such things in front of her, and let them see what her son had accomplished so far!

It is estimated that for the reason of 'the less people know, the better', Raymond did not tell Lilith that Eren was Feynman, the fox king, and Lilith naturally did not know that Alan was now a sage, and he was a super powerhouse who could rank in the top 100 in the entire continent...... Alan touched his clothes and said, "It's okay, there is not much difference between the eighth-order and seventh-order robes, I'll just change the badge and epaulettes in a while." ”

"No, people will think your clothes are fake...... I will also make an eighth-order magic robe, and I'll make one for you in the next few days. Lilith said with a serious expression.

Alan grinned, feeling warm in his heart.

"Come, kid, tell me about your experiences over the past few years. Lilith patted the bed and asked Alan to come over.

Alan walked over, pondered the words, and began to talk about his experience in the past few years, but it was shrunk, and he did not clearly name the power, the name of the person, and the level.

A person who pretends to be a force, becomes the king of this force, competes with other forces with his power, and then is favored by the super strong and admitted to the court, and then it is a thrilling adventure...... Lilith listened to the sweat in her palms, and felt even more that her child had suffered...... Night, Raymond's study.

Raymond, dressed in a voluminous samurai robe, was sitting cross-legged at a chess table.

He clasped his hands, closed his eyes slightly, and on the chessboard in front of him, the black and white chess pieces converged into two giant dragons, fighting in 'Tian Yuan'. Strangely, however, there was no one sitting across from Raymond...... After pondering quietly for a long time, he reached into the chess box beside him with one hand, took out a black chess piece, and went down to a blank space somewhere. This move, not to seize the land, nor to kill the general, but to test Bai Zi's attack, if Bai Zi makes a mistake, he can enter the city to conquer the city, retreat can be a joint siege...... However, at this point, it stopped. The futon on the opposite side was empty, and Raymond had waited for more than twenty years, and those who could play against him were still reluctant to take his move.

He sat quietly, and he didn't feel bored, and an indescribable stillness formed a ...... "Father" in him. ”

"Come in. ”

When Alan came in, he saw this strange scene, and he was a little puzzled, but Raymond said, "Come and follow me, you hold the white son." ”

"Yes. Alan replied and sat down cross-legged.

He only glanced at the chessboard, and with the calculation power of the sage, he quickly calculated the entire chess position...... This is the game of the Double Dragon Meeting, and the sunspot has a slight advantage. At this time, as long as the sunspot attacked, no matter how desperate the white son was, it was estimated that he would fail with a slight weakness, but the sunspot did not attack, but tentatively played a move, which is obviously a person who thinks very highly of himself, standing at a very high place, looking down at the opponent, and wanting to see how the opponent plays...... Alan pinched the white son in his hand, the purpose was to seize the land and drop the child...... Raymond followed suit...... Syllable!

Raymond's purpose is to kill the generals!

Alan thought about it and put another ...... Raymond then landed quickly!

Alan looked up at him and found that in his eyes, a kind of domineering look down appeared, which he had never had in his calm...... Alan is down again, Raymond is on again!

Allen's chess skills are not bad, but after a few steps, he was bitten by Raymond's big dragon, and he chased after him, chased and fought fiercely, pulled out the mountains, broke the trick with strength, and responded to all changes with the same ...... Allen's chess pieces bloomed everywhere, grabbing land and fighting, but the chess momentum could not twist Raymond, a big dragon, in less than twenty hands, was cut down by Raymond!

Allen's chess form is scattered!

Alan occupies a little more land, but Raymond has a black dragon across the chessboard, and if he exerts his strength at this time, there are attack points everywhere...... This is the chess momentum, both offensive and defensive, solid, brave and invincible black dragon chess momentum!

It was Raymond's turn again, but he looked at the board and put the pieces down. Obviously, he felt that there was no need to play again, Allen's chess shape was scattered, and he only needed ten hands to beat Allen to the point that he couldn't turn over...... "The world is a plate, people are people, your playing methods are blooming everywhere, but I am a fierce dragon invincible and sweeping thousands of armies." No matter how you change, I will break it with all my might. Raymond said suddenly.

"Chess pieces are always dead things, and I can't win against you...... But if this is the situation in the world, I will not necessarily lose. Alan took out another white child and landed on a black seed, the white child was fine, the black child was shattered into powder by Allen's power!

"This is my state of mind that breaks all shackles. Alan said.

Raymond was unmoved, slowly picked up his hand again, and after being silent for a long time, he said: "The name represents a person's identity, if even the name is fake, then what else is true?

"Once, when I met my master, I asked her if I wanted to save myself. She asked me why, and I replied to her, 'The body is like a tree of the Spirit, and the heart is like a mirror, and you always flick your sleeves, so as not to stir up dust.' Alan said.

Raymond nodded: "Every three times you save yourself, it should be like this." ”

"The master replied to me, 'The Holy Spirit is not a tree, the mirror is not a platform, there is nothing in the original, where can it stir up dust.'" Alan said again.

Raymond's expression froze: "What is your master?"

"It's inconvenient to say her name...... The name is 'Silkworm Fairy Niang', I said it before. ”

Raymond was silent for a long time before he said, "Although she is a woman, she is a real powerhouse. Her big state of mind is very powerful...... However, I am not sure that it is her people who will be defeated, not her free state of mind. Her big state of mind is not too threatening to me. ”

The meaning of Raymond's words is simple. There is no absolute superiority in truth, and it is the person who can really distinguish the superior from the inferior.

The silkworm fairy taught Allen a comfortable state of mind, Allen is rough and detailed, casual and calculating, blooming everywhere, connected into a ...... Raymond is serious and rigorous, sincere in his mood, pointed by the sword, invincible, invincible!

"Taught. Alan nodded. Raymond is indeed the strongest person in the Lionheart family for thousands of years, he is cautious, rigorous, and responsible, plundering like fire when attacking the city, and immobile like a mountain when defending.

"When will you let me meet your master?" said Raymond. In his heart, there was only one person who was worthy of playing against him, but now there was one more.

"She's an old man...... I can't get in touch. She doesn't like to see outsiders, so she usually says that she is looking for me. Alan said.

"It's a pity. Raymond sighed.

After chatting for a few words, Raymond said, "Alan, I don't know what you think about bloodline?"

"This ......," Alan didn't understand what Raymond meant, but said anyway, "Bloodline represents talent to a large extent, such as eagles are born to fly, and tigers grow to be kings, these are their inherent bloodline laws. They are protected by the bloodline and can have extraordinary power in a certain area, but in the same way, they are also limited by the bloodline and cannot break through the bloodline shackles, such as the tiger cannot fly and the eagle forest cannot fight. ”

"That's true. So the bloodline is especially important. Raymond nodded with satisfaction, "For example, the children of our Lionheart family have the dual bloodline of humans and beast gods, so in some aspects, we have advantages that ordinary humans can't match. ”

Alan nodded calmly, he had already discovered that there was also a bloodline in his body, which surpassed the Holy Beast Clyde, but it could not be fully activated...... "Many people feel that the power of heaven determines everything. This is also the argument of many scholars...... But that's not the case. As far as I know, the Sword Saint Autumn Wind Disease's root bones are not good. And, when I came to Pompeii twenty years ago, Ye Luo, the strong man who suppressed me so much that I didn't dare to make a mistake, was also mediocre in his own qualifications......" Raymond said slowly. Acknowledging one's failures is sometimes a form of maturity. Grand Duke Lionheart's bearing made Allen feel impressed, "What is the root bone? It refers to the constant basis of bone density inherent after birth, that is, bone weight. Bone weight is actually not unchangeable, according to the sword god Wolf's law summarized by the sword god Wolf 10,000 years ago, the bone density structure of ordinary people is one, so people who practice hard skills every day, the bone density structure can even increase to 20. This is how the root bone is exercised. Like muscles and mental strength, in fact, there are corresponding ways to exercise and grow. Including elemental affinity, there are also special ways to increase it. ”

"Isn't Sally invincible then, she's the only one in the world who knows the law of life, and unless she can kill her with one move, she'll never die. She can use super strength workouts to train, and her muscle strength and bone density growth are stronger than ours...... And she has a vindictiveness that is no less than ours. Alan frowned.

"No...... What I just referred to is only the regular exercise method, as for our five major families, they have their own unique exercise methods, which others cannot compare. Raymond said.

"Huh?"

"You come with me. Raymond stood up suddenly.

Alan followed Raymond, only thinking that he might have to accept the core secret of the family, the real core secret...... Raymond led Alan to his car, much to Allen's confusion.

But then, Raymond put his hand on the car, and the door opened, revealing an endless corridor...... Eren is very familiar with this kind of thing! Whether it's the Sword of Aurora or the Dark Shrine, it's the structure of this kind of heterotopic connecting tunnels!

"This is the artifact 'Paradise Lost', a treasure that our Lionheart family first owners acquired a thousand years ago. Even in that era when the gods were rampant, such treasures were very precious. This treasure has been kept by the patriarch of the Lionheart family, and it is a real artifact, and it is a super artifact...... You come in with me. Raymond said.

Alan followed Raymond into the tunnel, and when he entered, the door closed again.

After a two-hundred-meter tunnel, there is a cemetery lined with tombstones...... The tombstones are densely packed, and there are thousands of them!

"This cemetery is not exclusive to our Lionhearts, but to the owners of Paradise Lost long ago, all the way to our Lionhearts...... When we encounter a crisis of extinction, we can use our bloodline to awaken our ancestors who have died many generations ago, and they will protect us. Raymond said.

This calm voice made Eren feel like thunder exploded! There are thousands of tombs here, all of which have very outrageous laws revealed, and I am afraid they are all holy areas...... It can ensure that the physical body is not broken, which means that the law does not disperse, if all the people in this cemetery are called out, wouldn't it be able to sweep the world?

"It's not the predecessor of the family, so it can't be summoned with our bloodline. Raymond added.

Eren calmed down.

Alan looked around and found that there were only nine burial sites for the Lionheart family. In a thousand years, forty generations, it is obviously impossible for only nine people to be sanctified...... In other words, in addition to Vilia, there are also living Sages in the family!

Raymond took Alan to walk in the cemetery and walked towards a high mountain: "A year ago, Ye Luo summoned the Archangel to destroy the Dark Holy See, but unfortunately the Archangel was repelled by the Dark Pope Cruz with a treasure, and Ye Luo's soul was scattered. After that battle, I felt that the situation on the continent had become faintly delicate, first of all, the temple no longer suppressed our five major families, and then there was also a change in the Star Dragon Valley...... I feel like a big change is coming. ”

Alan also felt it, and nodded slowly.

Raymond added: "At this time, we must try to strengthen the strength of the family. If you're not in the Sanctuary, you can't get involved in these things, but if you're in the Sanctuary, there's no way to put them out of it...... This 'Paradise Lost' is the treasure of our family, and it can communicate with the strongest god clan in the divine realm, the 'Ancient God Clan'. ”

The Old Gods!

Allen's pupils shrank, the ancient god race is equivalent to the witch god race and the demon god race in the Xianxia world, which is a very outrageous and powerful existence.

"Yes, the Old Gods. Although most of them are dead, there are still alive. What dragon bloodline, as long as it is not the green dragon bloodline, it can't compare to the bloodline of the ancient god clan...... The ancient gods are not necessarily creatures that become gods, they may be a mountain god, a continent may become a god, or even, a plane may become a god. Raymond said.

Alan felt a lot of pressure, the energy of a plane can support hundreds of millions of living beings, if the plane itself becomes a god, then the power of this god ...... "'Paradise Lost' can communicate with the two ancient gods, namely the 'Red Monarch' and the 'Haoyue Monarch', as well as countless weak ancient gods of varying strengths...... Only the Holy Realm can enter, and only the Sacred Realm can accept their assessment. Once you can pass the test, then you will be able to receive the power they bestow. Of course, it is not without a price, the price is that you must be buried here after death to protect this 'Paradise Lost'. Raymond explained.

As soon as you hear it, you know that it must be a plane similar to the sun and stars, and the power of the flames is invincible...... Haoyue Monarch, he doesn't know his ability very well.

Raymond said: "With the power of the ancient gods, even if it is only a little bit, you can become a super strong person with unlimited potential...... Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the power of the ancient gods! Most of the strong families of the past generations only got the power of the minor gods, and only a few of them got the power of the Yue and Moon Sovereigns. If you grit your teeth and get through the test, you will be able to survive the trial! As long as you survive it, you will be able to shine in the chaotic world!"

The two of them came to the back of the mountain, and looking at the familiar thing in front of them, Allen's body shook.......
