Josh asks Lunicia to make sure that there are no ghosts around, and then takes Ruiz back to his mansion.

Sitting on the stone chair in the living room, Ruiz still hadn't come to his senses, and his body trembled slightly with the naked eye.

Joe, who was still preparing hot tea in the dining room, turned his gaze to the silent Ryze, and then turned his gaze to the tome on the round table.

That book was a lot like the secret book that Ruiz carried with him in later generations.

Apparently he came to me a few days ago and took the notes on arcane runes, but where did this book come from?

And the water of life......

Thinking of this, Josh's heart sank a little.

At this time, Lunicia spoke: [That book has an arcane aura on it, it is a magical secret book. 】

"I feel it."

Josh's biggest concern is not really about the book, but about what Ryz calls the "curse of the water of life".

Once the water in the tea stove was boiling, Josh poured a cup of hot tea for Ruiz and walked straight to him.

Hearing the sound of footsteps echoing in the room, Ryze lifted his panicked face like a frightened bird to look at the source of the footsteps.

"Take it easy, don't be surprised, you're safe."

Josh handed the not-so-hot porcelain cup to Ryze, and he hesitated for a moment as he stared at the steaming, rippling hot tea, before licking his lips.

Taking it in the palm of his hand, Ruiz blew into the mouth of the cup and sipped water, moistening his thirsty and aching throat that had been running wildly all the way and the smell of rust, and lowered his gaze again.

Then, Josh brought a heavy marble stone chair and sat opposite Ryz, crossed his arms around his chest and leaned back on the back of the chair, and crossed Erlang's legs, "Say it." ”

He was concise, and Ruiz looked up at Josh, who was suddenly stressed and nervous by his Guran Wubo, who had turned into crimson at some point.

You know, even if he used to be a mercenary in Berguin, Shurima, in the face of those robbers in the desert who were so domineering that they killed people and gathered more blood than they had drunk, Ruiz had never been so nervous.

Josh...... Is it true that he is not possessed by the Darkspawn weapon?

Ruiz's gaze quickly skimmed over Josh's chest, and the scarlet knife-shaped pendant was hideous and terrifying.

The amber pupils on the pendant seemed to move, and Ruiz couldn't help but shudder.

Even if he wasn't controlled by the Darkspawn, he wasn't the Josh Russell I knew.

Thinking about it in his head, Ruiz was silent for half a minute before he opened his mouth under Josh's gaze, and the expression on his face turned bitter.

"I ......"

He choked on a single word, as if he was still hesitating to continue.

"I saved your life, Ryze." Josh's voice was still calm, "I was implicated by you for no reason, but you don't even want to tell me the cause and effect of the incident?" ”

Ruiz just lowered his head, his slightly distracted eyes staring at a gap in the marble floor.

Josh gave Ruiz enough time to think about it, and after another minute or so, he exhaled a heavy breath and said slowly, "I made a big mistake. ”

[The classic opening words, every time you encounter all kinds of bad things, it always comes from the mistakes made by a guy who thinks he is smart. Runicia's voice was deep, and she sneered.

"Have you found the water of life?"

Ruiz looked up with a look of disbelief and horror, "You, how did you ......"

"You want to ask me how I know?"

Josh pouted and rolled her eyes, "Please, didn't you say that when I saved your life?" Those ghosts were curses from the water of life, and I could hear them clearly. ”

Ruiz realized that he had indeed mentioned it, and for a moment he was speechless, "Yes, yes, the curse of the water of life." ”

He muttered to himself in distraction, "Everything is the water of life, it's not a legend, it's true...... The spring water was buried in the ground of the Shining Light Tower, a well. ”

Ruiz had always believed that the eaux-de-vie of Fukuko Island was just a fairy tale for children, but for some reason, it became more and more evil, and it became a magical spring that could cure all injuries and diseases to the outside world.

However, it wasn't until that day that Grell took him to the Well of Ten Thousand Days, that Ruiz took the keystone he found out of nowhere to open the first lock, and then used his talent to unlock the second intricate rune lock, and the door to the Well slowly unscrewed.

It is not only the origin of life on Fukuko Island, but also the sacred mist that surrounds and protects the island.

Listening to Reze's new words, Joshmore rubbed his chin with a sparse beard and nodded thoughtfully, "Expected." ”

The eaux-de-vie are of paramount importance, and since research is to be developed, the rulers of Helia will certainly hide it in the tightest place.

And the safest place on the entire island, except for the ancient forest area where the spirit god Maokai is located, is only the heart of Helia, the Shining Light Tower.

"The Shining Light Tower should be the only way to the Ten Thousand Hills, right? How did you get in? ”

"Pass through the underground Hammer Supervisor's drain."

Hammerstone Supervisor ......

Josh and Ruiz frowned at the same time, but thought about very different things.

Through Rhy's description, combined with the previous Sentinel Leader Gendakaya's statement, Josh can now be sure that the "Soul Lock Warden Hammerstone" he knows is actually just a job title.

In this case, it will be much more difficult to find a certain "hammerstone" who will betray Helia in the future and lead Foyego to the fountain of life, one of the main culprits of the curse of ruin.

What's more, there is no record of Hammerstone in the texts that introduce the city of Helia as a whole.

In addition to the reason why the Hammerstone Supervisor sealed the dangerous magic artifacts, another estimate is that the status of the Hammerstone is too humble to be recorded.

Ruiz, on the other hand, is hesitant to reveal his deal with Hammerstone Warden Ellock Greer.

They know each other's secrets, and the other party holds their own handles......

If he is not careful, he may be exposed by Greer, and then "die together".

Returning to reality, Josh observed Ruiz's tangled expression, knowing that he still had secrets to tell, and deliberately snorted coldly: "Since you don't trust me, why do you want to come to me tonight?" You'd better go back and deal with the ghosts yourself. ”

Thinking of the white mist of the Great Hall of Ten Thousand Ages, those different white ghosts, Ruiz couldn't help but breathe.

Gritting his teeth, a few traces of blood oozed from his chapped lips, licked into his mouth, the rusty smell in his mouth coincided with his throat, and a little tea could not wash away this strange smell.

Eventually, Ruiz hung his head and sighed and muttered, "I made a deal with a hammerstone." ”

He lifted his chin and gestured to the magic tome on the table.

"We used to secretly plot to find this rune tome, but you didn't find it, and you were affected by the Dark Descent, lost your memory, and only found an incomplete record.

"So I'm going to sneak into the vault of the Hammerstone Prison myself to find it......"

"But you're caught by a hammerstone." Josh added.

Rhyz nodded and sighed, "Yes, that guy's name is Ellock Greer, who claimed to have been a fellow disciple of Tyrus and had a talent that surpassed Tyrus, but because of his birth and status, he was stolen by Tyrus, causing him to be thrown into the Hammerstone Prison and rot in the ground.

"I said he was gifted and a rune mage, but Tyrus didn't teach me anything, and I wanted to rebel against him, so Grell said he wanted to make a deal with me.

"He won't report me, and will give me the rune toire he wants, and I need to sneak into the forbidden land, which is the Well of Ten Thousand Years, to get the water of life he wants......"

Water of Life, Hammerstone......

Josh's eyes lit up, and the identity of the person he was looking for had already surfaced.

[Interesting, really interesting story! ] The self-proclaimed noble people of Fuguang Island actually ruined the future of their comrades in order to compete for power and monopolize academics! Hahaha......]

"That's just one side of the story...... Also, you've known about it for a long time, right? ”

Josh mentally communicates with Runixia, "Just the first time I went to Helia, you became aware of the anomaly underground. ”

[I am an ascendant who has mastered the power of death, and I am particularly sensitive to the breath of death, so I naturally know the secrets of the water of life. Lunicia said proudly.

"Then why didn't you remind me?"

[You are willing to obey those superiors who are obsessed with the illusion of power, even if I tell you about it, will you act for it? 】

How long have I been crossed? I haven't even figured out the situation on Fuguang Island thoroughly, how can I act?!

Josh was speechless for a moment, "You've been sealed for five hundred years, and you don't know how to be patient to get what you want?" ”

Therefore, the result of the path you have chosen is such that you still have to deal with the calamity of your reckless junior disciple, otherwise you will be implicated by it. Lunixia's tone was cold.

[If you listened to me kill those ghosts who stayed in the world because of the water of life, I would help you deal with it, and this island would be under your control. 】

"Kill, kill, you know killing, you don't understand at all!"

Josh was a little annoyed, and no longer paid attention to Lunicia, and instead glared at Ryze fiercely, "Where's Ellock Greel?" ”

Ruiz was startled by Josh, who was inexplicably excited and annoyed, craned his neck, and asked cautiously, "Why are you ......"

Before he finished speaking, Josh raised his hand to interrupt Ryze, his awe-inspiring eyes glowing with a scarlet glow under the light.

"We found him and killed him."
