Chapter 548: broken fountain

Chapter 548: broken fountain

"I remember that was when the city had just been besieged for a month."

Old Xiaoer narrowed his old eyes slightly, and said, "At that time, the panic and uneasiness pervading the streets were still very strong. Fortunately, the city has ample reserves, so you don't have to worry about food, and with the protection of the absolute defense barrier , so that everything in the city is still stable.

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Old Xiao continued: "On a starry night, when the curfew just started, the old man was called to the royal castle by the royal herald.

There, the old man learned a secret, that is, just in case, the royal family decided to transfer the most precious secret treasure to the center of the capital, underground in the newly built square, and the old man was the captain of the guard , to assist. "

"Transfer to the square in the center of the city? This is really an unexpected decision."

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a look of astonishment on his face.

"That's right, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Now it seems that the royal family's decision at that time was indeed correct. Unfortunately, the Kingdom of Loren still failed to escape the fate of destruction in the end."

Sighing lightly, a look of sadness appeared on Old Xiao Er's old face.

Immediately afterwards, he regained his energy, and continued: "Because the secret treasures are all transferred by members of the royal family using large-capacity storage rings, the guards led by the old man also dressed up as ordinary patrols at night, So, it went very smoothly along the way, and nothing went wrong."

After a pause, Old Xiao said again: "Moreover, the perimeter of the square has secretly increased the security force several times, so the secret treasures were easily transferred to the underground of the square in the center of the city in batches. "

"Excuse me, sir, where exactly is that?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked.

"It's in the central square of the city, directly below the giant horse fountain, about one kilometer away from here, and the direction is on the side close to the mountains."

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Old Xiao Er said without reservation.

"Understood, no wonder the opponents at that time did not discover the real location of the treasure. No one would have thought that the Royal Loren family would hide their secret treasure under the central square of the city."

Nodding his head slightly, Lei Xiao stroked his chin and said thoughtfully.

"Your Excellency is right."

Smiling slightly, the old Xiaoer added: "After all this is done, just in case, we still covered the original stone bricks with a layer of insulating ore insulation that can greatly weaken the detection magic. Layer, it adds an excellent barrier."

Speaking of this, Old Xiao's expression became a little weird again, and he said in a dazed way: "Your Excellency, speaking of which, even if you know the location of the treasure place, it is not easy to obtain the secret treasure inside." matter."

"Oh? How do you say that?"

Looking at the old Xiao Er who looked a little embarrassed, Lei Xiao was puzzled.

"To tell you the truth, for a period of time after that, the old man was still ordered to lead the guards to patrol here every night."

Looking at Lei Xiao's puzzled eyes, Old Xiao continued: "At first, I didn't know the reason for the royal family's arrangement, but I didn't know until later.

It turned out that the royal family also secretly dispatched the highly respected court magister at that time, leading all the powerful court magicians, and arranged a special magic prohibition using eight extremely rare magic prohibition crystals as a guide. "

"Special magic restriction?"

Frowning slightly, Lei Xiao asked in doubt.

"That's right, there is only one key to this fifth-level magic restriction, and that is the members of the Loren royal family who flow the blood of the Loren royal family. Other than that, no one else can unlock it."

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Old Xiao responded: "And if you try to break it by force, it will automatically activate the powerful chain magic trap inside the magic restriction, causing all the secret treasures in it to be destroyed."

"It turned out to be like this..."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and muttered to himself: "So, the best way to obtain this lost secret treasure is to find the descendants of the Loren royal family who have the blood of the Loren royal family? "

"Your Excellency is right. However, when the royal capital was destroyed, it is unknown whether anyone in the royal family survived by chance. In addition, thousands of years have passed. If you want to find the descendants of the royal family of Loren, it is no different. A needle in a haystack of not knowing if there is a needle in the sea."

Shaking his head helplessly, Old Xiaoer said with a wry smile: "Therefore, please don't have too much hope, Your Excellency."

"Finding a needle in a haystack is for sure, but what I can confirm is that the needle in the haystack should be in the sea."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled mysteriously at the old Xiao Er in front of him.

"What? Your Excellency, do you mean...the descendants of the Loren royal family still exist?"

Hearing the sound, a look of astonishment suddenly appeared on Old Xiao Er's old face, and he asked in surprise, "How did you confirm this?"

"It's like this..."

Smiling lightly, Lei Xiao described to Old Xiaoer how he accidentally found a mirage in the forest outside when he first came here.

"I didn't expect such a thing to happen. Next to the ruins of the royal capital, I met the mirage of the descendants of the royal family..."

After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Old Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed in amazement: "It seems that this secret treasure of the royal family, which has been lost for thousands of years, seems to be very close to Your Excellency!"

"I hope so. Besides, I always feel that I have seen that girl who is a descendant of the Loren royal family somewhere, but I just can't remember it. Maybe it's just my illusion."

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao couldn't help curling his lips slightly.

"What is embarrassing is that the royal family that used to rule a country has now been reduced to risking their lives to go to the mountains to collect medicine? It really makes people feel that the world is impermanent."

Shaking his head helplessly, Old Xiaoer sighed heavily.

"There is nothing static in this world. In my hometown, there is a proverb called "Thirty Years in Hedong and Thirty Years in Hexi". This is exactly what it says."

Smiling at Old Xiao Er, Lei Xiao regained his energy and said, "Okay, if that's the case, then we should leave as well. I believe we will meet again in the near future."

After a pause, Lei Xiao seemed to remember something, and said to the burly old man in front of him: "Mr. Xiao Er, the energy of your pendant has been exhausted, right? Do you need to find someone to help you replenish it?"

Just now when Lei Xiao said this, Chao Yan, who was full of wine and food and was slipping away, couldn't help but startled, and hurriedly stepped back several steps, blinking her big eyes, and hid behind Bai Wei.

"Thank you for your kindness. Although the energy in the pendant is not much, it is still enough to keep the old man in a deep sleep. I hope that when the old man wakes up next time, he will be able to see a more powerful lord."

Slightly waving his hands, Old Xiaoer couldn't help showing a look of sadness.

When preparing for the bloodline inheritance, he had already stayed here alone for an extremely long period of time. It seemed that he was obviously unwilling to feel the loneliness of being bound by petrified shackles.

Immediately afterwards, Old Xiaoer regained his composure, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, this distant grandson of the old man has a high level of comprehension, and in a short period of time, he has completely grasped the essence of what the old man has learned all his life. It will definitely be of great help to you.

Having said that, Old Xiao looked at the reluctant Fang Haidao again: "Grandson, remember, the job of a blacksmith is heavy and has a long way to go. Forging is not just a weapon, but a country or even a race." spine.

Only with a sharp blade in hand, can this country or this race be invincible and stand proudly on this vast continent where there are thousands of races. "

"The distant grandson respectfully obeys the teachings of the ancestors!"

Hearing the sound, Fang Hai immediately stroked his chest and bowed in salute. On his old face, there was a look of enthusiasm, and he wished he could show his skills in front of the magic furnace.

"Then, Mr. Shaw, let's get out of here first."

On the other side, after signaling the knotweed to restore the bluestone platform and petrified statues to their original positions, and letting the two maids, A Ling and A Bing, clean up the secret room.

Lei Xiao first nodded to the burly old man, and then he led his subordinates, walked up the long stairs, and left the underground secret room.

After a while, Ye Cang, who was walking at the end of the team, just stepped on the stable ground.

Accompanied by another muffled sound of "rumbling".

The tunnel entrance sunken inward in front of him slowly began to close, and then completely returned to its previous appearance.

"Knotweed, go to the side and get a magic furnace to cover the entrance to this secret room."

Seeing this, Lei Xiao immediately nodded to the burly man in front of him.

In this way, after the knotweed placed the magic furnace, the group of people followed the path they came from and returned to the sunny forest ruins.

Next, Lei Xiao first commanded his subordinates to seal the hole that Hong Ye penetrated from the ground.

Then, according to the information provided by Old Shaw, they found the central square of the city where the royal family's secret treasure was located.

After some observation, Lei Xiao noticed.

The giant horse fountain that Old Xiaoer was talking about had already turned into pieces of gravel of different sizes, covered with moss and weeds, and the original appearance could not be seen at all.

Just like the kingdom of Loren that has been destroyed, people can't help but sigh.

As for the original central square of the city, it has already been covered by the intertwined roots of towering trees and bushes, and the insects and katydids are dancing, which seems to be full of the vitality of nature.

"My lord, my subordinates have consciously checked it just now. Although the energy fluctuations emitted are extremely weak, there is indeed a very impressive magic restriction underneath."

When Lei Xiao saw this, Hong Ye with a high ponytail came forward and bowed sassyly to report.

"Is that really the case?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao leaned on his chin with one hand and nodded thoughtfully.

"My lord, so we can only open this magic restriction by finding the descendants of Loren's royal family?"

On the other side, Ariel, who was dressed up, couldn't help frowning slightly.

After what she saw and heard just now, as a member of the Lengyan royal family, the current ruler of this land, she was deeply moved.

Especially when she remembered the thin and stubborn mirage girl she saw at the beginning, she couldn't help being deeply shocked.

It is conceivable that if he hadn't met Lord Lord.

According to the current chaotic situation of internal and external troubles, if it continues to develop, it may not be long before such a thing will also happen to the descendants of the Lengyan royal family.

And now, with the help of the lord, her dream of making all the people of Lengyan Kingdom live and work in peace and contentment is slowly being realized!

Thinking of this, Ariel's starry eyes flickered, and she couldn't help casting an even more reverent gaze at Lei Xiao.

"Exactly."

Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao immediately responded: "However, from another point of view, this is not a bad thing, at least we know the mystery of the magic prohibition first, otherwise, if we break it directly, I'm afraid things will go wrong." It will be irreparable.

"Your lord is right. Although this kind of practice of burning jade and stone together is very rare, it does exist, especially in this kind of treasure place."

Seeing Hong Ye with her hands on her hips, Dai Mei frowned.

Immediately afterwards, Hong Ye bowed to Lei Xiao and said, "However, Lord Lord, in addition to the subordinates, if there is another fifth-level magic powerhouse present, the subordinates can completely avoid this situation from happening. gone."

"That is to say, if we want to let the treasure in it open this magical restriction without any ~, we must either find the descendants of the Loren royal family, or we have a powerful fifth-order in our team Is it a strong magician?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

At this time, the first thing that Lei Xiao thought of in his heart was naturally Jiang Li, the ancestor of the half-elf.

"This guy has been out for a while, but there is still no news, and I can't get in touch. I think there should be news soon, right? With her elusive space magic and the blessed invisibility cloak, I just want to Its hard to do anything.

"Moreover, after she woke up from a deep sleep, she has already appeared on the list of members of my subordinate tribe, the Yuebai tribe, and is currently in a living state."

"It's worth mentioning that before Jiang Li appeared, there was already an item on the list of members of the Yuebai Clan with "???", and it wasn't until she showed up that it became her attribute again. , but this situation did not appear in the Xueyu clan. "

Reluctantly curling his lips, Lei Xiao continued to think: "However, since there has been no news from her, there must be something delaying it?"
