Chapter 252: The Secret of the End of the Dark Ages

Leaving the affairs of Twilight behind them, the group had no intention of looking back to see if the townspeople had a better life. Lin and his party continued along the road, aiming for the headquarters of the Wizards' Association in their area.

Hurry up and hurry along the way, and there is no original leisure at all. This is because the big killing weapon that Fen was carrying, without a completely sealed container, unscrupulously exuded the aura of a dominator. Not only did the beasts and monsters avoid them all along the way, but even the three of Master Lin and his apprentices were all kinds of uncomfortable. Although it is not to the extent of illness, it is also listless, thinking about a million ways to die all day.

Therefore, I hope to rush to the branch headquarters as soon as possible, find suitable materials, and use a more formal way to make a sealed container. On the other hand, I would like to get a more detailed map of my surroundings at the club headquarters.

Because Lin was busy before, he could only record the areas he walked through, and he could only rely on the maps provided by others for unknown locations. What the Wizards' Guild can provide is more or less enough to operate within a zone. It's just that the map provided by the association only focuses on the location within each district, and if you want to move across districts, you will inevitably face this blind situation.

Fortunately, the sketch map they got from the orc mercenary group was quite correct, and as long as their location was confirmed, the group followed the route and went straight to the branch headquarters in their district, Shanling City.

The traditional southwestern region of the Lost World, that is, excluding the Southwest Peninsula, before the Doomsday Mountains, is mountainous and hilly, embracing plains to form a basin topography. Such a terrain is characterized by the inaccessibility of transportation, and the fragmented and undeveloped area of different sizes, which naturally becomes a separation zone of civilization.

The people who will come to this area, their ancestors either came here after being defeated and fleeing, or to escape the scourge of war. Although several city-states were established, they were not able to form a large range of states, and it was normal for government decrees and forces to not be able to occupy the basins. In the eyes of those old kingdoms and empires, this is a group of country monkeys who occupy the land and occupy the king.

It is divided into the Basque Country by the Wizards' Guild, and is the largest of all the Guild's districts. However, the number of registered mages is also in the lower part of all the districts. Similar to the number of magicians, the Homo sapiens living here can be said to be vast and sparsely populated compared to the land area.

Despite this, the headquarters of the Basque Country, the main body of the Castle of the Ridges, is a magic tower known to everyone in the Lost World.

Originally, this magic tower had no name, but was just a four-story tower built by a great magician who lived here. But ...... "What makes this tower famous has something to do with you?" Lin, who sat back in the driver's seat, turned back to the former demon lord and said so.

"What's the relationship?" Fen, who stopped typing the code, looked at someone who was talking about the ancient times. More than a thousand years of being sealed made her very interested in what happened in this world, or what happened in another world. Not to mention that Lin also mentioned that this matter has something to do with him.

Whether it's good or bad, as long as it's human, it cares more or less about what others say about it, even if it's a lich whose strength is above that of mortals. As for the curiosity shown by Fen, Lin didn't have the appetite to catch people, he really did this before, and the end was miserable, so he said directly:

"At the end of the Dark Ages, the last Demon King Army was wiped out, and the rebel forces at that time were concentrated in the Mountain Ridge Tower, so that tower is also known as the last bridgehead of the Dark Ages. And at that time, more than two hundred years had passed since your death, that is, the day of the Demon King's ambush. A year later, in order to signify the advent of a new era, the Syrian calendar in use today was established as the first year of Syria. ”

"The relationship you are talking about is this kind of relationship." Fen said with some disappointment.

Someone is quite helpless. "You don't want to think about what kind of reputation you had in the first place. Could it be that you hope that others will spread that you watched the fish swim against the current somewhere, or when you were young, in order to study magic hard, a bowl of porridge was cooled and cut into four pieces, and you ate one piece in the morning and one in the evening, and a bowl of porridge can last for two days. ”

"What do you mean when you're young?" Fen's eyes flashed fiercely, and he questioned someone viciously.

I said, sister, you only heard those three words in the whole paragraph.

However, the vicious eyes immediately retracted, and Fen asked again: "Then do you know who led the last Demon King Army in the first place?" ”

Although his expression is no longer hideous, and his eyes are fierce, the hatred under the calm still makes people shudder. Lin tried hard to recall the history books he had read, and vaguely remembered them. He said: "If I remember correctly, it seems that a man called General Bones gathered some remnants of the Demon King's Army and hid in the area that is now known as the Malaga Basin, and started a protracted war with the rebels. ”

"It's him. That brainless idiot. ”

"What, you know it too!" it! Which tendon is wrong, but he was a subordinate of this person at the beginning, how could he not know him. So Lin changed his mouth and asked, "What kind of person is that one?" ”

"You're an idiot. Otherwise, you think that skeleton with no brain can have much wisdom. I thought that if I led an undead army, I would be able to walk sideways all over the world. Once I saw him, I beat him once. If he beats too much, he will be obedient. But it seems that it wasn't enough to beat that damn guy to betray. I should have known that I should have dismantled him and fed him to the dogs. ”

Well, it seems that the hatred is still very deep, and it makes people wonder whether to complain or not. Whether it was the name, or what Fen himself said, that skeleton general should be an undead skeleton. Desperately emphasizing that the skeleton is brainless...... It means that skeletons are more terrifying if they have brains and internal organs.

However, Halumitzer did not know how many times he passed by the carriage. Every time, she would look at her sister with a very peculiar gaze, but she wanted to say nothing.

"Say it, say it." Looking at the girl who passed by again, Fen simply closed the window in the field of vision of her glasses, looked at Halumi and said, "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask." Don't walk around like this, you're about to be dizzy. ”

"Hmm~, sister." The apprentice cautiously asks about the secrets of the Lich's time. "Why would you say that the vampire you met before was a betrayer? And the general just now is also ......"

It seems that he is a little unhappy, and Fen also wants to talk about the memories that have been evoked. It's just that she didn't know where to start for a while, so she thought for a while before she said to Kaya and Lin, who were also eavesdropping, and Harumi, who was asking questions:

"You've all heard your teacher tell you so much about the intrigues of their history, and just as much about the tricks. So I'll test you, and when there are only four of you, all right, just the four of us. What would be the easiest way to defeat a king with an army of 100,000 to protect him? ”

"Just defeat the king?" Halumi asked.

"Yes, because as soon as the king falls, the army will become a plate of loose sand, which is easier to solve."

"If you either infiltrate, you will rebel against those armies." Harumi replied casually, without any jerkiness or hesitation.

"yes, that's what they did?" Finn received it even more smoothly and casually. But everyone who listened widened their eyes and looked surprised, and Harumi squeaked and couldn't answer.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Fen suddenly felt that it was worth it, and he was a little inexplicably proud, and said: "Otherwise, you think that there are only four people, mixed with the title of a brave man, who can break through the army of three million in my heyday and kill me in front of my throne." It was a group of betrayers, who had never fought the invading enemy, even the guards of my royal city, who had come to me in perfect form. This is the truth of what you call the brave. ”

Shocked, Halumi answered with difficulty and asked, "Those four brave men colluded with the Demon King Army at that time?" ”

"Well, I don't think so." Fen recalls the events of that day, and she says, "Those four people also seemed quite surprised to find me directly. ”

"So you're in a big fight."

"Nope." To the blonde girl's question, Fen threw out another surprising answer. She said: "Just those four little hairs, even if I stand still and let them chop, I will not lose a hair for a hundred years." It's still a big fight. ”

"What about you?" Harumi gestured to his neck, shoulders, and thighs, naturally suggesting that Fen had been dismembered. But the lich, as if it was none of his business, said, "I'm tired of living." Those few dogs that don't grow, if I hadn't helped them, they wouldn't have been able to tear me down. I can't even kill myself myself. It's just that the condition is that my dismembered parts are sealed everywhere, and I don't want to be resurrected. As a result, those little guys don't keep their promises. ”

Wait a minute...... The amount of information was a bit large, and although Lin was just listening to it, he felt a sense of fear. He said: "When you were just resurrected, you looked bitter and hateful, and you stared at the descendants of the four braves. ”

"Their ancestors didn't keep their promises, and I just beat them in the ass, didn't I? Besides, you may have forgotten, I'll help you recover your memory. Regarding the matter of those four people, you mentioned it first, not me. ”

"Ah, you still ran out and went around before coming back?"

"It's not just waking up...... Yes! No, it's just resurrected, and my head is not very clear, so go out and take a turn and calm down. ”

"In other words, if the descendants of the four brave men are still alive, in fact, you won't trouble them? Is that what it means? ”

"No, it's still a beating. Didn't I just say that their ancestors didn't keep their promises, and I just beat them. ”
