Chapter 165: The Alliance Under the City (5) (Those who voted are all cuties)

The phantom of the One-Eyed King smiled, and two six-sided dice appeared out of thin air in front of him.

"An hourglass when a person. ”

This is the result of the roll of the dice. The Cyclops King's Phantom is a spell guard created by the deceased Lord of the East Tower for the U-sang royal family, and its role is to connect the "Heavenly Endless Treasure" hidden in the void, and determine the time and number of people entering and exiting the treasure house.

The technique of making this spell guard is both ancient and advanced, and the Senate has worked tirelessly to arrange for people to study it secretly for hundreds of years, and although those top mages of the Usang can crack some of the techniques, they simply cannot make exactly the same guard.

Based on the research materials obtained from the East Tower, the best case scenario of the spell creation test was that it lasted for two days and then collapsed on its own. They speculated that the reason why this guard was able to survive was because of its close connection to the "Endless Treasure".

"Heaven and Endless Collection" is the secret of the former royal family of the Usang Empire, after the overthrow of the emperor's rule, I searched through the library of the royal family to find some useful clues. According to those clues, the "Endless Heaven" is actually related to an existence called "Supreme Heaven":

Legend has it that the Most High Heaven is the celestial descendant of the gods of the upper realm. Compared with those gods who are rejected by their parents, who are not loved by their grandmothers and uncles, the Supreme Heavens are simply growing up in honeypots. They generally have beautiful faces, perfect figures, and a compelling self-confidence.

When the Supreme Heaven is not happy, the clouds will weep down the salt water, the dead fish will wash up the banks and lakes, the leaves of the trees in the nearby forests will fall in a torrent, and when the Supreme Heaven is in high spirits, the warm sun will follow them to every corner, the small animals will play in their tracks, and the birds will sing loudly in the sky.

The High Heavens are immortal Titans, and their loving parents are reluctant to suffer the slightest grievance—they never age, and using advanced healing techniques is as easy as breathing. In battle, the Supreme Heavens are often fearless, partly because of their own strength, and partly because they know that even if they step into the coffin with one foot, they will most likely be resurrected by their parents.

But just as the Terrasqua Behemoth can be killed by the Prayer Technique, so it is possible for the High Heaven to die while traveling outside the Upper Realm. Just killing one High Heaven will anger at least two gods, and many more other High Heavens who are friendly with them.

The "One-Eyed King" who established the Usang is precisely the descendant of the Most High Heaven. Although as an ordinary mortal, there is not much power left of this Heavenly Bloodline to his generation, but the "One-Eyed King" still has a talent that ordinary people can hardly match.

The Infinite Treasure is one of those talents—thanks to the shadow of his ancestors, the One-Eyed King has inherited this piece of space that his ancestors used as one of the many rooms for gifts from others.

Even for a tiny fraction of it, the "One-Eyed King" established his kingdom. After his death, this treasure was regarded as a "family heirloom" by the Usang royal family, and was passed down only among successive emperors.

The way to open the "Heavenly Endless Treasure" requires a special secret imprint - the eyes of the Supreme Heavenly Bloodline have a secret imprint in the shape of a magata, and every time he summons the gate of the "Heavenly Endless Treasure", the Usang Emperor needs to use this eye for identification.

This is not a burden at all for the true Supreme Heaven, but for its mortal descendants, this method of verification has great hidden dangers-

The "One-Eyed King" had three magatama in his eyes, but due to the frequent opening of the "Heavenly Endless Treasure" to obtain treasures during the founding of the Usang Kingdom, his right eye was completely blinded.

And the descendants of the "One-Eyed King" continue to have weak bloodlines, even the emperor with the highest concentration of blood, the number of magatama in his eyes is slowly decreasing.

In the end, the Usang emperors, who only have one magatama in their eyes, can only open the door of their ancestors' treasures twice at most in their lifetime, and their eyes will lose their light.

In desperation, the last emperor of the Usang could only exchange a certain collection in the "Heavenly Endless Treasure" for the help of the Lord of the East Tower, and with the help of the magic creations he created, the emperor of the Usang could once again open this treasure at a relatively small cost - only once every ten years could there be a chance to open the door of the "Heavenly Endless Treasure", and at the same time, the time and number of people who entered needed to be determined according to the results of the six-sided dice roll.

It's just that the last emperor didn't open this door many times.

Hundreds of years ago, by the irreconcilable sharp contradictions between the emerging business aristocracy and the royal family, the "reform" operation broke out overnight. Led by the General General, the then Minister of Economic Adviser to the Imperial Family, and now the Senate, assisted the Emperor from the throne.

In order to completely eliminate the hidden danger, they originally decided to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and completely cut off the inheritance of the "One-Eyed King".

However, when it was executed, there was an astonishing change - severing the bloodline of the Usang royal family, although it would not be as likely as killing a true supreme heaven to trigger a divine war, but the mastermind of the conspiracy would definitely be cursed.

When the steer hanged the emperor's concubines and children one by one with a bowstring, and before death was about to befall the last emperor, the curse took effect.

Originally, even the steer who was the executioner thought that the curse would fall on his head, but in order to realize the general's plan, he still took the initiative to ask Ying to make a "dirty glove". But who would have thought that the final curse would directly find the mastermind of the "restructuring".

The legendary warrior who was majestic and strong as if he had descended from the heavens, and later the general of the Usang Empire, turned into an old man in his last years in the blink of an eye.

Even if the mages later saved the slave's life by absorbing his life force, the dwarf's appearance remained unchangeable. That's why he has been covering his body with Mithril armor since then, showing himself as a "silver samurai".

After the repeated inferences of the spellcasters, if they insist on severing the inheritance of the descendants of the Usang royal family, which contains the blood of the Supreme Heaven, I am afraid that an even more terrifying curse may appear on all those involved in the "reform" conspiracy. The emerging business aristocracy, the general generals, and the president of the Senate were not spared.

In desperation, the last emperor of the Usang was retained.

However, the participants in the restructuring have come up with an even more vicious plan - they plan to pollute the bloodline of the High Heaven in order to achieve the goal of gradually severing this inheritance - first to lure the Emperor and the female Waste Giant** through spells, and then to imprison the offspring in Izumo Castle and leave them to fend for themselves.

This is the origin of the ruined giants in the "Ruins of Cloud City".

Thinking of the plan he participated in hundreds of years ago, even the hard-hearted speaker shuddered. Since then, he has firmly established the notion that the human heart is the most sinister thing in this world.

The human heart is sinister, and the world is impermanent.

From the imperial system to the senate republican system, the U-sang Empire began to slowly develop in the ash world, from the blue wisps of the road to the blue wisps, and later controlled almost the vast majority of the slave trade in the entire world.

During this period, the Usang Empire also underwent several tests. On one occasion, when faced with the life and death coveted by the devilish Duke of Batzu, the speaker and the general thought of the former royal treasure.

It was the first time the two of them had entered the "Cloud City Ruins" buried deep in Izumo Castle, and when they found the king of the ruined giants at that time (the natural lifespan of the ruined giants was the shortest among giants, not even much longer than the average human). They used the guy with the thin bloodline of the "One-Eyed King" to open the "Endless Hidden Heaven".

Maybe the bloodline was too thin, so they could only gouge out that guy's eyeballs for the spell creation of the Lord of the East Tower to identify. But even so, the dice roll can only roll two "ones" - one person, one hourglass.

Originally, the speaker suggested using space equipment to take out more treasures inside at once, and you can go back and forth several times when an hourglass is used. But after entering, as soon as he opened the space equipment, the "Heavenly Endless Hide" was closed.

It was the general who plucked out the other eye of the King of the Evil Giants and opened the door to the treasure vault once again. As a last resort, he had to rely on the general to carry it on his shoulders and desperately go back and forth in an hourglass time to take out enough treasures.

When the Heavenly Void was completely closed, the Void Form of the One-Eyed King reminded them that "the Supreme Heavenly Bloodline had become too filthy, and it would only be opened once every hundred years."

In this way, after a hundred years, the two of them entered the "Heavenly Endless Treasure" again, two eyeballs, but it was an hourglass time - because the mage was asked to use spells such as Tamson Floating Saucer to facilitate transportation, and unexpectedly failed again - the mage who knew the secret was handled by the general himself.

Now it's time to open this treasure trove again, and Uso is experiencing an economic crisis. Although the general did not return, the speaker had no time to wait for him, so he asked the mage and the warrior of the personal guard to escort him to "withdraw money".

Before opening this door, he had already thought that in the case that he could only rely on manpower to carry it, he must choose some spell items or gems with relatively high value and transport them out in bags. Although these things cannot be exchanged for materials and currency in the Usang for a while, they can still solve the urgent need through trading with the heterogeneous plane.

But just as the speaker was about to act, there were three muffled sounds behind him.

He turned around and saw that the captain of the Guards and the mage he had brought with him, as well as the ruined giant who was being held up by Tamson Flying Saucer, had fallen to the ground. A strange man in a purple robe and a golden mask was walking towards it.

"Davishur!" the Speaker's eyes widened, and he recognized his identity from the person's attire - it was not surprising that before plotting the invasion of Mediki, the U-sang sent a large number of elite ninja to infiltrate.

Since he was about to enter the "Heavenly Endless Treasure", he had already taken down the large number of spell supplies he had brought with him. The speaker fumbled for a moment, and only a jade knife that had just been used to gouge out his eyes could still be regarded as a weapon.

At this time, he also understood where the fire in Izumo Castle came from!
