"Miss Ace, you're back so soon!"

Seeing the cold girl at the entrance of the courtyard, Roy said in surprise.

Beside Roy, Lilia and Shanika also had a flash of joy in their eyes.

For the current situation of the Black Stone Collar, the two women have some understanding, and naturally know that the key to the current breakthrough lies in the magic items sealed under the Star Lake.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't able to retrieve the mana item."

However, the next sentence of Ace, the Ice Witch, poured cold water on the heads of Roy and the others.

Roy's face was slightly sluggish, but he quickly calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Miss Ace, can you tell me what's going on under the Star Lake Center?" ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you." Ace walked over to the stone table where Roy and the three were sitting and sat down, put the hazy ice hockey ball in her hand on the stone table, and then said in a cold voice:

"Around the Star Lake, there is a knight stationed with a fighting spirit fluctuation far stronger than the silver peak, it should be a golden knight, and further away, there are several silver knights hidden."

"And under the Star Lake Center, there is a large-scale sealing array."

"It consists of eight huge metal columns with a diameter of one meter and a height of nearly twenty meters, and a platform of dark silver metal."

"And in the center of the sealing array, there is a crimson crack that is close to the size of a palm, and the reason for the abnormal magic power appearing in the water of the Star Lake Lake is precisely the majestic fire element magic that periodically gushes out of this crimson gap."

"Magical items, it should be just behind the crimson chasm."

"I tried to force open the crimson rift, but failed."

"This crimson gap, although visible to the naked eye, seems to exist in another dimension, untouchable."

"Through observation, I found that the crimson gap is gradually expanding over time, and in connection with the fact that the lake will gradually return to normal after the annual Soil Festival, I roughly speculate that the closer this crimson gap is, the larger it will expand, and when it reaches the Soil Festival, it will reach its maximum, and after the Soil Festival, this gap will close."

A lot of information under the Star Lake, coming out of the mouth of the Ice Witch Ace, made Lilia and Shanika's eyes appear shocked, and also made Roy's eyes gradually become calm.

Mysterious Sealing Array, Untouchable Crimson Rift......

All this made Roy feel as if there was lightning flashing through his head, connecting all the information obtained in the past in an instant.

There is no doubt that the purpose of the second prince, from beginning to end, is the [Arrogance Demon Source] magic item under the Black Stone Leader Star Lake, which was sealed by the mysterious sealing array.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to offend Soros, the border duke who guarded the border and held military power, an important minister of the empire, guarding the border.

But in fact, would Border Duke Brayton Soros really not know about the mysterious sealing array under the Star Lake?

This one may be there, but it's not big.

As a super nobleman at the top of the empire, if the border duke's control over his territory was weak to this extent, it is estimated that he would have been overthrown long ago.

The Blackstone Territory was originally the domain of the Frontier Duke, but it was given to the old lord of the Blackstone Domain, Roy's original father, who had made outstanding achievements in the previous Imperial War.

What Roy couldn't figure out was that with the Blackstone Collar in such an important area as Star Lake, why would the Frontier Duke Soros give it to the Old Lord of the Blackstone Collar?

This doesn't make sense.

In other words, Roy is the Duke of the Border, and with such an important place, he must be heavily guarded by his own men.

But I can't figure it out, so I can only put it down for the time being.

Roy's thoughts turned to the mysterious sealing array beneath the Star Lake.

As for Ice Witch Ace's inference about the law of crimson crack expansion, he thinks that there is a nine-out percent probability that it is correct.

The anomaly of the Star Lake has always started a week before the Harvest Festival, and it will subside quickly after the Harvest Festival.

Roy had asked Red, and in previous years, the old lord of the Black Stone Collar had only gone deep into the Star Lake to collect low-purity magic crystals on the second day after the Harvest Festival.

And the letter from Border Duke Breton Soros to Roy only says that you should not go deep into the Star Lake during the Fengyang Festival, and there is a danger that the Golden Knight may die, but it does not say that you can't go deep into the Star Lake after the Fengyang Festival.

All kinds of information combine to basically prove Ace's above point.

From this, we can also know a conclusion: the dispute between the second prince and the border duke will not reach its true peak until the crimson gap under the star lake is opened to the maximum on the day of the Fengyang Festival.

There is no doubt that if the crimson crack really has a time period that can be touched or even entered, then this time will only be the Abundance Festival.

If the second prince wants to obtain the [Arrogance Demon Source] magic power item after the sealing array, he must send someone to go deep into the Star Lake during this time period.

And the identity of the Golden Knight stationed next to the Star Lake, it is not difficult to surmise that it is the deputy head of the Red Knights, the Golden Two-Star Knight, and the Blood Fortress Robert who appeared on the border of the Black Stone Territory some time ago.

If you want to go deep into the Star Lake under the guard of such a character and take out the magic items behind the sealing array, it is obviously impossible to rely on those "little guys" of the silver knights.

I'm afraid that on the day of the Fengyang Festival, the real battle has just begun......

Now, it's just a brief lull before the storm.

The untouchable crimson crack frustrated Roy's idea of holding the [Arrogant Demon Source] magic item in his hand in advance.

Although he was disappointed, he was not discouraged.

This is the way things are in the world, and even if you have a plan, there will always be variables.

All Roy could do was prepare as well as he could.

Since it is impossible to obtain the [Arrogance Demon Source] magic power item under the Star Lake in advance and grasp the initiative, the only thing that can be done now is to maximize your own combat effectiveness.

No matter how you want to act in the future, strength is the foundation of the foundation.

"Roy, inside this ice ball are some magical fish I found under the Star Lake, and it contains a relatively gentle and much more special magic power, which should be helpful for your cultivation of Douqi."

At this moment, Ace's voice reached Roy's ears.

Because she couldn't get the magic items under the star lake, Ace had guilt in her eyes.

According to the "agreement", Roy helped her promote to the "crown", and she helped Roy obtain the "magic items" under the star lake, but now, she has not been able to complete the agreement, which makes Ace feel very uncomfortable.

Ace's voice interrupted Roy's musings.

His eyes followed Ace's voice to the ice hockey ball on the stone table, and as the ice fog on the surface of the ice hockey ball dissipated, he could clearly see hundreds of small pale red fish frozen inside.

Ace's words made Roy's heart move slightly.

His current cultivation speed of Dou Qi is not slow, but if he can speed it up again, it will naturally be even better.

"Thank you."

Thanking him, Roy looked away from the puck and looked at Ace, the Ice Witch:

"Miss Ace, let's go into the room."

"I'll take the pollution out of your body."

"Strive to complete the evolution of your talent and take your strength to the next level before the arrival of the Harvest Festival."
