Chapter 91: There is still hope
Murrihan was killed, and Edge also thought about who the murderer was. Undoubtedly, he had something to do with the Adora people. When he was with Old Kord, Old Kord spoke very seriously and terriblely about the Adora people, because the Holy See would wipe out this kind of people. And Murrihan owns the Adora thing, and if he is killed, the Holy See will be extremely suspicious.
Summing up these thoughts, it dawned on Aggie. If the person who killed Murrihan was from the Holy See, then isn't there one person in Caanster City who is the most suspicious at this time?
McCarron.
Guessing that it might have been McCarron who killed Murrihan, Aggie was a little surprised. Although he had not been in contact with McCarron, he had seen McCarron at the ball that day. Maccarron is full of approachability, like a kind old grandfather. But such a person is an executioner sent by the Holy See. This had to surprise Edge.
Humans may indeed be creatures that are difficult to guess. The surface never represents the essence. It's not easy to find someone who is the same on the outside.
For Murrihan's killing, Aggie was concerned about only two things. The first is whether it will affect his plan to return to the Kenos Empire. The second is that Murrihan was killed, and Kate should be able to track down the truth, hoping that Kate will not be in danger.
It's useless to think too much about this, it all depends on the situation. Although the city of Ca'anster was heavily guarded due to the murder of Merrihan, it was still some time before Aggie planned to return to the Kenos Empire, and the problem should be resolved by then. If you really can't do it, just sit on Giroud's back and fly into the sky, who can stop you?
Speaking of this, Edge was a little curious, it is impossible for the Kingdom of Relia to have no dragon knights, and the place with the most dragon knights in a kingdom is the royal capital. But in Caanster City, he had not seen a single dragon knight. Did the dragon knights all go to play? Or ...... Not at all?
Things certainly won't be the way Edge thinks. To sum up, it can only be said that his steps along the way were too hurried and destined to miss a lot of wonderful things.
Late at night, Edge was already alone in the room.
Finally, in the dead of night, he had been waiting for the time since he got the model Erdora script from the Murrihan Laboratory. He was so expectant of the contents of the parchment scroll, expecting the parchment scroll to contain alchemical information. What he wanted was not information from the Adora tribe, but powerful alchemy.
He took out the parchment scroll and flipped through the model of the Adora script, and he translated the contents of the parchment scroll bit by bit. It wasn't until 4 a.m. that he fully translated the contents of the small parchment scroll.
With excitement he read the contents of the parchment scroll, and the results were ...... To sum up, there are disappointments and surprises. These are mainly accounts of the development of the Adora tribe, including some alchemical matching equivalent exchange substances. However, although these contents involve alchemy, Aggie is not happy.
There are enumerated substances for equivalent exchange, but there is no point in really learning alchemy. In other words, with the contents of the parchment scroll, it is impossible to get in touch with alchemy in the true sense of the word. This can be said to have directly dashed Age's expectation of wanting to learn alchemy.
However, in the complicated content, there is a sentence that makes Agi see hope from disappointment.
"The will of my Adora will never fade! A hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand years from now, the land soaked in the blood of our people will surely rekindle the flames of war in the past!"
This sentence was probably written by the Adora people, and Agee read in it a kind of reluctance similar to the one he had to watch his village destroyed by thieves.
I remember that Old Kord said that the extermination of the Adora was during the events of the Battle of the Great Heroic Spirit. Perhaps the parchment scroll was written by some Adora with the remnants of his life during the Battle of the Great Heroic Soul, as if to declare that one day they would return for revenge.
Since the Adora people left such a last word, then they must have a reason to do so. The hope that Edge sees is that perhaps there are survivors of the Adora who still live in the land and are secretly engaged in revenge. And the object of their revenge is the gods.
If any of the Adora survived, then there is no doubt that alchemy still exists in this land. In this way, as long as you go to the place where the Erdora tribe lived in the past, it is possible to find clues to alchemy. So if you want to find clues to alchemy, the place you have to go is undoubtedly the [Abyss Land] in the extreme north of the continent.
But to go to the Abyssal Land...... The northernmost land, the extreme northern, is also the area where the Abyss Earth is located, distributed in the middle of the eastern and western continents, that is, the source of the Isolated Sea! There, it is rumored that even the gods cannot stay, how can mortals go?
But...... Didn't Murrihan go? It was in the Abyss that he got this parchment scroll. Since he can go, it means that there is a way to get there. If you find this way, you can go to the Abyssal Land.
In this way, if you want to obtain alchemy, there is still hope.
But, after all, it was too far away for Edge. Alchemy is fascinating, but it is only harmful to be ambitious. Now that Aiji knows the unique magic dragon combat skills in the world, and also has the powerful ancient magic weapon Moros Blade, if he can learn these two points well and master them to the extreme, he can also become a super powerhouse.
But if you delay the expansion of the Demon Dragon's skills and the evolution of the Moros Blade because of the pursuit of alchemy, which is almost only an illusion, then you will end up with nothing.
Aggie does not lack a calm and reflective heart. He knew that his return to the Kenos Empire was imminent, and he would definitely not have time to run to the treacherous land of the abyss to find some ethereal alchemy. Now I have such an interest in alchemy and want to pursue it because of this clue that is close at hand.
If you can make a big discovery in this "clue", and then follow the vine to obtain alchemy, it is naturally an excellent thing. But obviously the result is impossible, there is no such good thing in the world!
Therefore, Aegie decided that during the rest of his stay in Caanster City, he could continue to pursue the clues of the secrets of alchemy, but not affect his plans to return to the Kenos Empire.
When the winter passes, regardless of whether the matter of alchemy is settled or not, return to the Kenos Empire to expel foreign enemies according to the plan. This point must not be changed.
Edge knew he couldn't wait. He's not alone, he's the villagers of the Forest of Orus. Thinking back to the villagers, I don't know how they are doing. Especially the reassuring Anne, now, she should be a little older.
Think about these things again, and the sky is bright. But on this cold winter day, even if the sun is shining, it will feel very gloomy and not burning at all. In addition, he didn't sleep all night last night to translate the parchment scroll, so Age didn't get up, but slept under the covers.
Fatigue and the cold made him fall asleep quickly.
When he woke up, it was past three o'clock in the afternoon. Stretching his fist, he realized that Leah hadn't come to wake him up as usual. He thought it was strange, so he hurriedly washed up and went outside to see what was going on.
After asking the other servants, he learned that Leah had followed Orwell to the Inquisition to report on her work. The so-called report is actually a description of what you see and hear in daily life. The reason for this was because of the killing of Murrayhan.
In recent days, first Kate was assassinated, and then Murrihan was killed. This kind of thing happened in the long-settled city of Caanster, and the royal family has become serious and ordered a strict investigation of these things.
Knowing that it was the commotion caused by the murder of Murrayhan, Aegie thought about it, he knew that McCarron was suspicious, but McCarron was a member of the Holy See after all, and there was no convincing evidence, and if he talked nonsense, he would only cause trouble for himself. Considering his plans to return to the Kenos Empire, he planned to ignore the troubled waters and go to Old Kord.
He came to Old Kod because he still had hopes and obsessions with alchemy. Old Kod was a traveler in the past, and he was of the same nature as Murrayham, and Murrihan had a way to reach the abyssal land of the Far North, so would Old Kod also know that there was such a way?
Although Old Kod was extremely reluctant to deal with the affairs of the Adora tribe, for the sake of alchemy, Aegie was still cheeky and could be said to go to him willfully, hoping to get useful information from him.
