The ancient millennium empire, the undead dragon soul emperor, the baby girl brought out from the lava pit...everything is shrouded in a veil of mystery, even in this world of Laherion, which is full of mysteries. Things got together and still aroused Hao Ren's full curiosity.
Sure enough, this ancient empire hides countless secrets.
But Hao Ren was only curious, and he had no intention of delving into these mysteries for the time being—he came here to find traces of the pollution of the Mad Lord in the last cosmic reincarnation and the reason why this world survived. In other words, they are looking for the "vaccine" of the Lord of Madness, and the secrets of the royal family of a mortal country don't seem to be that important in front of this goal. Unless it is related to the "vaccine", it is not worth spending time on it.
Of course, it’s just chatting and learning some information by the way, Hao Ren still doesn’t mind continuing on this topic: “This Princess Constance seems to be trusted by the emperor. Can handle it."
"So it's no wonder that some people suspect that Princess Constance is the illegitimate daughter of His Majesty Brentin. The Dragon Soul Emperor is willing to hand over one of the most powerful troops in the empire to this adopted daughter. This can explain some problems," Charlie Man said, "Of course, that princess is indeed outstanding in strength, probably because she also has a dragon soul. It is said that she has surpassed all the court teachers when she was a child, and after taking over the Broken Sword Knights, it is even more impressive. That legion is stronger than before."
"Okay, I know about this, but we seem to be getting off topic," Hao Ren squeezed his chin, and suddenly remembered that what the three of them were discussing at the beginning was not the issue of the royal family's illegitimate daughter, "We were just talking about black The Knights of the Sword—Is it related to those knights that you came to find me?"
Charlemagne pondered for a moment, and said bluntly: "We suspect that those knights are coming for us."
Hao Ren raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
"Although the black sword knights are distributed all over the kingdom, they don't wander around the countryside like patrol teams. They are usually stationed in barracks in big cities or in important military fortresses, but like this town... it In the empire, it is only one level higher than ordinary villages, and under normal circumstances, no black sword knights will come here in person, let alone a five-member team."
Aiwenna added: "In a place like this, if the attendants of the Black Sword Knight can come here, it is already a great face for the local officials."
"So that's how it is," Hao Ren suddenly realized, "That is to say, there must be a very serious problem to make these ordinary knight masters run around in such a hurry, and you two... just happen to be a very serious problem. "
Evanna nodded with concern on her face.
"You really need to be more vigilant," Hao Ren frowned, "If these knights are coming for you, does that mean that the previous pirate attack really involved the high-level members of the Dragon Empire—even the emperor himself? After all, you just said that those black sword knights are directly under the emperor's orders."
"We really don't want to think that way," Evanna gritted her teeth, "Although there are occasional border frictions between the White City Federation and the Dragon Empire, the two forces have never had any deep hatred, and the ancient Yisu Kingdom of the White City Federation itself is even more serious. It has maintained a long-term diplomatic relationship with the Dragon Empire. Our secret visit this time... His Majesty Brentin even hugged me and my brother... "
In the end, she still did not say what the content of this secret mission was.
"Don't be swayed by these personal feelings," Charlemagne frowned, "Ewenna, I don't want to think so, but just after we settled in this town, the black sword knight came running over, it's really not a big deal good sign… "
Hao Ren was about to speak when he suddenly heard Vivienne's voice from the door: "But you must not be sure."
The Charlemagne brothers and sisters were very nervous when they heard the voice, and they were relieved after confirming that it was Vivienne. Afterwards, Awenna was a little embarrassed and scared: "Could it be possible to hear the conversation inside clearly from the outside?"
"No, my ears are quite special, and I can hear many sounds that ordinary people can't hear." Vivienne closed the door, turned her head and waved her hands, "The guy in the next room should have heard it too, her ears are sharper than mine Well, if someone bites into a biscuit three blocks away, she can drool all over her feet in the house."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Lily yelling from the next door: "Bat, don't think I can't hear you!"
The Charlemagne brothers and sisters were suddenly startled and suspicious, thinking that the guys who came out of the World Tree Temple are all mutants!
"It's still the same sentence just now, you are definitely not sure," Vivienne came to the brothers and sisters and looked into their eyes, "Otherwise you would pack up your things and run away immediately, how could you come here to talk to Hao Ren?" There's so much gossip about it."
"It's true that we didn't reveal our whereabouts all the way. It can even be said that we came here from the sky. Those black sword knights are not dedicated trackers. It is unlikely that they found our traces," Charlemagne choked. After a while, he still said with a normal expression, "Maybe they didn't just search in this town, but launched a large-scale search in a fairly large area. At this time, there is a possibility of being discovered if they act rashly."
"Understood, then we will also pay attention to our activities and be more careful." Hao Ren understood the meaning of the suspicious and cautious prince, "Try to avoid those black sword knights as much as possible?"
"That's the best," Awenna got up from the chair, and gracefully raised her skirt, "My brother and I came here mainly to talk about this matter."
Hao Ren laughed dryly: Then it turned into a popular science scene again by accident, right
After the brothers and sisters left, Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his eyebrows: "Sure enough, no matter how small a place is, there can be hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I didn't expect that a Dragon Empire on this small planet Laherien would actually There will be so many secrets."
"Didn't you say that the censor observes the world, in your eyes, there is no distinction between civilizations." Vivienne smiled and came over and pinched Hao Ren's shoulders, "If it's not important, such an interesting It’s actually a good place to stay for a while.”
"Your way of thinking is closer to mine. It feels like you want to be a prosecutor." Hao Ren smiled and looked up at Vivienne. "But to be honest, it's not impossible to pay more attention to the details of this country. After all, none of us know what kind of traces the Lord of Madness will leave in this world, maybe they can really be hidden in these messy royal secrets."
"With you all day long, it's hard not to be affected," Vivienne smiled helplessly. "By the way, did Nolan find anything inside the planet?"
The fact that Hao Ren and his party are acting together with the Charlemagne brothers and sisters does not mean that they have entered the mode of traveling in mountains and rivers. In fact, through spiritual connection, Hao Ren has been conducting in-depth scanning and searching of this planet. Hundreds of precision probes have been released into the "world rift" that divides the planet in two. In the past twenty-four hours, they have been continuously sketching the internal structure of the planet.
Since the planet was divided into two halves, and the original core was even directly exposed, the scanning work of the probe was much easier. Soon, a huge amount of information was gathered in front of Hao Ren, but unfortunately there was nothing of value in it. thing.
"I didn't find anything," Hao Ren shook his head. "The physical structure of this planet is clear at a glance—although its current state violates the common sense of physics, but apart from this anomaly, we haven't found any clues related to the Crazy Lord at all. The material structure of the planet is reshaped, the human beings and human history on the surface of the planet are also reshaped, and even the single-celled organisms and the original atmosphere are restored bit by bit in Leah's dream... I really doubt here Can you still find clues? Ah, speaking of Leah, what is your mother doing now?"
"It sounds even weirder when you say that." Vivienne rolled her eyes at Hao Ren, "Leah was resting in the room—in fact, she diverted most of her energy to the main body to do homework. She said she was right The quality projection is not very proficient, and it is quite difficult to maintain dual-use for a long time."
Since the mass projection is used in the "Dark Realm" of the Dream Plane instead of entering the watch world, the time for Leah to activate the bracelet does not have the six-hour limit, but the mass projection itself still needs to be involved. With a lot of energy, Liya is a beginner after all, and she still has heavy learning tasks, so when Hao Ren has nothing to do, she will naturally withdraw most of her energy to the main body.
Just leave an avatar here who only knows how to eat at a fixed point, which is better than disabled children... In other words, why does a quality projection have the function of eating
Hao Ren shook his head, and put aside this kind of question that was destined to have no results. He relaxed his shoulders and began to enjoy Vivian's massage steadily.
Gentle fingering plus just the right amount of weak current stimulation... quite comfortable.
…
Charlemagne and Evanna spent the rest of the day on high alert.
Although I don't think that my whereabouts have been exposed, and I don't dare to be completely sure that those black sword knights are coming for me, but after all, there are worries in this regard. Years of education and training make them dare not go out in this environment. Let your guard down.
We must be on guard against those knights coming to our door suddenly: if the previous pirate attack was really related to the Dragon Soul Emperor, the Black Sword Knights would be a group of deadly killers for the siblings.
However, everything seems to be just a false alarm.
The guards checked the situation in the town, and soon confirmed that the black sword knights did not come to search for anything. They went straight to the town hall, but they hardly stayed in front of the local officials for long. When it came, they left through the main gate of the town.
This gives people the feeling of orderlies coming and going in a hurry.
In the following night, everything was uneventful.
But even though no one came to make trouble for his group, Hao Ren and his party soon felt that the atmosphere in the town had changed.
