The team set off again, and everyone felt much more relaxed this time. After all, there were two fierce-blooded warriors in the team to escort them, which greatly increased safety. Ordinary vicious-level blood beasts were not afraid at all.
Because they were not far from the imperial ruins, they quickly arrived at the imperial ruins. During the process, they did not encounter any more blood beasts.
Blood beasts have territories, and their distribution is not too dense. They should still be within the territory of the two flaming lions.
"I didn't expect there to be a place like this in this red leaf forest!"
Edge looked at the dilapidated building in front of him in amazement, but he could still see the majestic building in the past.
"If you actually build a house in a place like this, aren't you afraid of being attacked by blood beasts?"
Watt had doubts in his eyes.
"This is a relic from the empire period thousands of years ago. This place at that time should not be a forest, and naturally there would be no blood beasts."
Bernal explained.
"The ruins of the empire? Master Bernal, I wonder what these ruins of the empire are?"
After hearing Bernal's explanation, Edge, Watt, and Kim couldn't help but look at Bernal in surprise.
"This is the country that ruled this continent thousands of years ago, before the four kingdoms appeared."
Bernal said.
"Rule this continent?"
The three of them were all shocked. Before the Four Kingdoms, there was a country that ruled the entire continent.
"Yes, the entire continent at that time was under the rule of this country, and this country was far more powerful than the four major kingdoms today."
Having said this, Bernal sighed slightly.
"It's a pity that such a powerful country suddenly collapsed in a very short period of time, and we don't even know how it collapsed."
“…”
The three of them, Aiqi, all looked at Bernal with slight surprise. Listening to Bernal's words, they felt a strange feeling of being exposed to the unknown mystery of this world.
Because Gray, a talented young man, was used as a comparison, the three of them looked down upon Bernal. After all, compared with Gray's talent, Bernal's talent was more than a little bit behind.
But at this time, it seems that although Master Bernal is not as good as Master Gray in terms of cultivation talent, he is extremely knowledgeable. He actually knows that there was an empire thousands of years ago, a secret that they have never heard of. As expected, the descendants of Lord Viscount are not Simple.
Gray gave Bernal a funny look, but he didn't expect that the other person also had such a side.
If others don't know, how can he not know that when he first came, there was no difference between Bernal and Edge and others.
But at this time, he was already talking loudly, as if he knew the former empire very well.
Gray naturally had no intention of exposing the other party. He gave the other party a meaningful look and then looked away, allowing the other party to continue bragging.
After entering the secret room, they took out the leather bag that had been prepared and filled it with gold coins. After taking a short rest in the ruins, the team began to return along the road.
In the end, it took five days to move all the gold coins in the secret room of the imperial ruins.
The total value has also been calculated. At the current price of gold, these gold coins are worth about 1.1 million gold coins.
This is a very astonishing number, and the wealth is already several times that of the Oliver family whose homes were confiscated.
During the process, there will naturally be attacks from blood beasts, but few blood beasts can resist the joint efforts of Gray and Viscount Fergus.
Moreover, the location of the empire ruins did not go too far into the Red Leaf Forest, and no blood beasts above the vicious level were encountered.
Back at the castle, Gray no longer paid attention to the gold coins, but devoted himself to training. Naturally, it was not his turn to worry about the subsequent handling of the gold coins.
A few days later, he was alone in his training room.
"Huh, huh..."
The violent wind wolf composed of blue light dissipated, and Gray stood up with a heavy breath.
"In ten days, the training progress will increase by one minute. Calculated, it will take about a year to increase the strength to a mad blood warrior."
Gray was not disappointed that the improvement speed slowed down again. After all, the further you practice, the slower the improvement speed becomes. Not only him, but others as well.
Moreover, in one year, he was promoted from a fierce blood warrior to a mad blood warrior. This training speed is already extremely terrifying. If Viscount Fergus knew about it, he would definitely go crazy.
You must know that it is almost impossible for the current Viscount Fergus to advance from a vicious blood warrior to a mad blood warrior without special opportunities.
But Gray was able to achieve it in just one year. You can imagine how fast Gray was promoted to the Mad Blood Warrior in just one year.
"One year is neither short nor long. The trouble now is the follow-up blood method problem."
The Fergus family does not have the blood magic after the Wind Wolf sequence and the mad level. Gray has confirmed this to Viscount Fergus.
In other words, one year later, when his strength increased to the mad level, he would no longer have any follow-up blood skills.
Although due to transformation, as long as he can get the blood of the blood beasts that follow the Wind Wolf sequence, his strength can be improved again.
However, due to the lack of corresponding blood skills, the speed of his strength improvement will undoubtedly slow down to a certain extent, which is naturally not what he hopes for.
“We definitely can’t count on the Fergus family.”
The importance of blood magic to a family is self-evident. If the Fergus family had the ability to obtain it, they would have already found a way to obtain it. Since they didn't have it, they definitely couldn't count on it.
"Did the Fergus family not have the ability to get it, or has it disappeared?"
It seems that due to the collapse of the empire a thousand years ago, many of the blood spells remaining in the four major kingdoms are incomplete, and many of the subsequent blood spells have disappeared with the collapse of the empire.
If the Fergus family failed to obtain the follow-up blood method of the Wind Wolf sequence simply because they did not have the corresponding channels, then it is good to say that at least it is possible to obtain it.
And if the corresponding blood method has disappeared in the long river of history, then there is really no way.
"If that's the case, we can only switch to other sequences. I don't know if that will work."
The current bloodline on his body is the fusion of multiple blood beast bloodlines. This is just his speculation and has not been confirmed. After reaching the level of Blood Beast Warrior, it is still unknown whether the conversion to blood beast sequence can be successful.
"And even if it succeeds, where will other barbarian-level blood spells be obtained? By the way, that ruins..."
Gray suddenly remembered that he had obtained a map of suspected imperial ruins from the middle of a book.
At that time, because the place that was suspected to be an imperial ruin was not within the territory of the Marquis of Sidney, I put it aside and paid no more attention to it.
Now that his strength has reached the level of a fierce blood warrior, he can try to detect it. Maybe he can find the blood magic he needs in the ruins of the empire.
After leaving the training room, Gray went to the bathroom. As soon as he came out of the shower, he saw the maid Barbara coming up to him quickly.
"Master Gray, the Viscount wants you to go to the Jinbi Hall."
"Jinbi Hall? Which family is visiting?"
Green asked doubtfully.
The Jinbi Hall was a living room specially used by the Fergus family to entertain visitors. Since it was used, it was naturally because a family came to visit.
"It's the Earl Ford family."
Replied the maid Barbara.
"The Ford family, what are the Ford families doing here?"
He has been occupying this body for more than a year, so he naturally has a good understanding of the social relations of the Fergus family. As far as he knows, there is no intersection between the Fergus family and the Ford family.
This is also easy to understand. As the Earl family, second only to the Marquis family, both in terms of status and strength, it must surpass several Viscount families and is not at the same level as several Viscount families.
In the case of unequal relationships, there is naturally no real communication. Even if there is, it is only one-sided flattery and flattery. Obviously, Viscount Fergus does not have such a flattering character.
