Chapter 629

Yingchao mountain is very eye-catching. It stands alone in the middle of the primeval forest like a giant mushroom made of rock. The tall trees were like clusters of grass at her feet, and people could only see her strange and majestic figure at first glance.

Juyan Shizhu mountain is a unique geomorphic spectacle in the northern wilderness. It is said that the giant dragon once perched on the top of the mountain and looked arrogantly at the weak creatures. The forest at the foot of the mountain is their territory, and all the monsters living in it are their slaves. Anyone who covets the dragon's treasure must first break through the monsters in the forest. When they defeat the dragon's servants and try to climb the cliff, the dragon will send them into the arms of death with its wings and breath.

Relying on the natural danger of Shizhu mountain, the ancient dragon without worries unscrupulously attacked the city-state villages of humans, elves and barbarians, secretly stole and robbed, racketeered and extorted, and transported the plundered wealth back to the nest.

The greed and tyranny of the Dragon angered the ancient god elect. Legendary wizards joined forces with elves and barbarians to attack the largest Dragon Nest at that time, triggering a mythical and epic dragon war. Finally, the chosen one won the war, forced the dragon family to sign an alliance, and built the most famous human city-state - Longyan City on the Dragon Nest.

If the legend is true, the huge rock pillars in the Northern Wilderness can carry a human city-state, which shows its great friendlessness.

Yingchao mountain is obviously a little smaller than the legendary Longyan City, but it is also more than 300 meters high and covers an area of nearly 4 square kilometers. Even the flexible mountain ape can't climb to the top of the mountain with its nearly vertical cliff.

The silver moon hung high, the moonlight shrouded the fields like a veil, and Victor seemed to be a tangible ghost. The dragon lizard leather boots gently lifted him up more than ten meters on the cliff, and the trees at the foot of the mountain quickly became smaller in the field of vision. With only a few dozen blinks, he climbed to the top of Yingchao mountain.

Victor's heart is full of free pleasure. With his lightness and popularity, most obstacles in the world can't stop him. He can enjoy the scenery invisible to ordinary people.

The area of the top of the mountain is much larger than that of the hill camp led by Randall. It is mainly composed of rocks, and the soil is relatively scarce. There are only a dozen clumps of shallow rooted shrubs. The light colored flowers are dyed silver white by the moonlight, which has a quiet beauty. There is a pool of water on the west side of the middle of the top of the mountain. It is in midsummer. The water level is low enough to see the rock stratum. However, the pool covers an area of more than 2600 square meters, and the water volume is enough for 300 people to drink until the rainy and snowy season.

This is a natural reservoir. If there is a stable water source, life can flourish. There are a considerable number of bird nests beside the pool. They are distributed on raised rocks or artificially built stone walls. It is obviously a masterpiece of the dog headed man, but the dog headed man moved away from the eagle nest mountain, which has become a habitat for birds.

Victor did not disturb the birds sleeping at night. He made a quick circle on the top of the mountain and found no trace of the dog headed man digging a hole.

This disappointed him greatly. The alchemy tower was built at the intersection of the four elements. He didn't understand what the element intersection was. He only knew that there was water near the alchemy tower. There was water on the top of the eagle's nest, but he didn't find the excavation pit left by the dog headed man. There was no trace of excavation, indicating that the strange crystal was not unearthed here.

The x-3 has a subtle insight. There is no trace of man-made digging on the top of the mountain. Victor won't find anything new after turning many times.

Where are the ruins of the alchemy Empire?

Sitting on the highest rock, Victor took out the strange crystal in his leather belt pocket. With the help of the cold moonlight, he carefully observed the characteristics of the crystal and thought secretly:

Its shape, hardness and size are surprisingly consistent with the strange crystal of the mist mountains. The red beads inside seem to be the blood of some kind of creature, and the color has a metallic texture... Are they sealed crystals? The dragon vein dog head people have the treasure hunting talent given by the dragon. They collect this crystal, which means that the strange crystal is equal to the treasure loved by the dragon. In order to get it, the dog head people don't hesitate to spend their energy and dig a big pit on the ground. The key is that the dragon vein dog headed people's collecting addiction makes them wander around. This strange crystal may not have been dug near Yingchao mountain.

However, the remains of the alchemy empire can not be found. I may not be able to find them, but I will meet them! It is no accident that Caligula found strange crystal among so many treasures and presented it to me!

The context of the development of things should be like this... The shining Knights do not use big prophecy to deal with the black hoofed Centaur tribe. King Ryan will not die, and the little Baron will not go to the Centaur hills. Naturally, I can't get a new life on him, and there is no activate No. 7 gold training tower.

On the other line, the outside of Yingchao mountain was originally the territory of the black hoof centaur. If the shining Knights did not use the great prophecy to defeat the black hoof tribe, drive out the Centaur and turn it into the East Development territory. The dog headed Lord would never dare to leave Yingchao mountain at the risk of being killed by the Centaur tribe, and would not migrate to the calf village with treasures including strange crystals.

Strange crystal will not fall into my hands.

I got the strange crystal. It is a force of fate playing a role. It is an extraordinary attraction that belongs to the heirs of the alchemical empire. Therefore, it is quite possible for me to find the site of the alchemical Empire near Yingchao mountain!

Victor clearly knows that his idea has fallen into the trap of fatalism, but he now has the confidence to get rid of the arrangement of fate. The strength of the legendary level, the secret method of spiritual blood, the power of his highness and the huge influence of the golden group can make him refrigerate the No. 7 alchemy tower. However, he suspected that if he refused the legacy of the alchemical Empire, there would be other beings to accept the arrangement of fate.

Therefore, he can collect the relics of ancient alchemists without using them, but he can't let others inherit the alchemy empire.

Victor collected the crystal and walked along the periphery of the top of the mountain, overlooking the forest landscape below.

This primeval forest radiates from the foot of the mountain to all around, from dense to sparse, in an oval distribution, about 670 square kilometers. It was night, and Victor could not see the whole forest with his eyesight. He stood high, divided the forest into different areas with x-3, and then explored separately.

If you search for ancient relics aimlessly in the forest, Victor may not be able to find the target in half a year. According to the law that the alchemy tower is close to the water source, he plans to look for the traces left by the dog headed man digging the pit by the water source. This work is relatively simple for Victor and can be completed in about half a night, but the core of the earth has the magical characteristics of accumulating soil and turning mud into stone. He didn't have time to spend in Yingchao mountain. He had to identify the suspicious location first, and then leave some alchemical militia to dig one by one. It's really not enough. He can also mobilize the mercenary regiment controlled by mercury to help.

A light of fire on the edge of the forest came into Victor's eyes. He couldn't help stopping and watching.

Huoguang is located in the east of Yingchao mountain, 11 kilometers away from victor. Randall's guard and the battle priest camped on the west side of Yingchao mountain. It was obvious that the light was not their campfire.

Victor didn't hide his breath when he entered the forest of Yingchao mountain. If there were powerful ferocious monsters, he would be far away from the forest at this time. Whether it was a man or a monster who raised the campfire, Victor must go to investigate since he saw it. He slipped off the cliff, the air flow changed direction in the air with the light body, fell more than 10 meters and adsorbed on the cliff, so repeated, and soon fell to the ground.

With the map of x-3 memory, Victor steals silently to the position of the fire. A moment later, he approaches the target 2km, falls on a big tree and listens to the movement in front.

The sound of dialogue, footsteps, the friction of armor brought by action, breathing and heartbeat were transmitted to his ears without omission. X-3 quickly outlined a picture, and the location of dark piles, the number of personnel and monster captives were clearly presented.

Is that her? Interesting... Victor raised his mouth slightly, sneaked forward for a distance, easily bypassed the dark pile and saw the graceful figure under the campfire from a distance.

*****************

Andrea Basselius stood by the campfire, quietly watching the wizard cast his spell.

A man wrapped in black stood in front of two centaurs. One had become a cold body and the other was on the verge of death. A semi open round tube was inserted into its side abdomen. The blood was gurgling out and flowing into a large jar along the semi round tube.

The black robed man's chest is surrounded by a circle of red mysterious runes, which rotate slowly in the void with a strange rhythm.

"You followed the tribe to the east of the territory. What did you see?" The man in black asked the Centaur in human language.

The Centaur made a strange chirp in his mouth and answered the man in black.

Its voice gradually slowed down. After a while, its eyes solidified and its undulating chest finally subsided. The red Rune faded away, and the black robed man's body trembled, as if he were about to fall to the ground.

Two soldiers in leather armor held the tottering man in black robe in time and helped him to a tree stump to sit down.

Andrea waited for the man in black to calm down and asked coldly, "wood, is there any result?"

The man in black shook his head, took the cup handed over by the guard, drank a mouthful of Mead, and said weakly, "Sir, this Centaur knows very little. It stayed in the east of Sidon Khanate for ten days and saw countless similar people gathering... There is nothing else."

Andrea nodded without asking if she could, and said to herself: "these Centaur scouts we caught in dongkailing are of low status and can't ask for valuable information... It seems that I need to catch a ferocious Centaur scout alive..."

"Clean up and camp here tonight. Tomorrow, we'll go east to see if we can meet the fierce centaur."

Andrea raised her slender hand and straightened her hair, which was disturbed by the night wind. Her dark blue eyes suddenly coagulated on the swaying campfire, and the flame danced in the opposite direction of her beautiful hair.

The fierce wind female Knight lifted the Mithril bow very quickly. The sharp Mithril arrow shone blue and pointed to somewhere in the forest.

"Sonorous"

The guards in the camp pulled out their long swords one after another and dispersed into a circle. Their sharp eyes swept the forest with the shadow of the trees. At the instigation of their master, more than a dozen strong red haired war dogs circled around the forest pointed by the countess's bow and arrow from different angles.

The night wind blew and the leaves whined, masking the rustling sound of the dogs' footsteps. Everyone was on alert. After a while, the dogs returned to the camp one after another, and the horror atmosphere spread in everyone's heart. Andrea's beautiful eyes turned ice blue, like a frozen storm. Her voice calmly ordered, "call back the guard posts and we'll leave right away."

A stalwart knight sounded a whistle like a rock cricket. In the woods, crickets chirped in different directions. Twenty three guards in green and black leather armor returned to the camp one by one.

"Everyone is here... Are you waiting for me?"

The sweet voice came from Andrea's back. She sighed faintly. The Mithril War Bow and the Mithril long sword at her waist were thrown to the ground. She turned her body gracefully and ordered her subordinates like a great enemy: "put away your weapons."

The guards obeyed the countess's orders, returned their swords and put down their bows and crossbows. They saw a slender and symmetrical figure walking from the East. He was dressed in leather armor with exquisite shape and two long swords hanging from his waist. He was handsome without a couple. His eyes glittered with golden streamers, like fog and rainbow, and looked mysterious and noble.

Andrea came forward and bowed her knees: "good night, your highness Randall. I didn't expect that we would meet here."

Victor smiled and saluted, "beautiful Countess Wimbledon, it's amazing to meet in the wild. Why don't you come to me?"

Gently bit her lower lip, Andrea moved to Victor's side, half a shoulder behind. They were less than 1 meter apart and looked quite close.

The close combat of the wind knights is sharper than their long-range attack. Andrea remembers the style of the count of golden eyes sword cutting the violent ogre supervisor. At this distance, she has no chance to escape or fight back.

Victor smiled with satisfaction at the corners of his mouth, and the golden streamer in his eyes quickly dissipated and restored his dark golden eyes. His eyes swept all the people in the camp, paused slightly on the black wizard, looked at the red haired War dog lying on the ground and keeping quiet, and commented, "the dog is well trained and doesn't bark."

Andrea snorted coldly. Victor turned his face and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be a core member of the balelius family."

It is not surprising that the Basilius family keeps wizards, and Augustus also keeps wizards, but none of the four princes in brinor city has access to the Wizards of kite castle. Andrea is not the prince of bacelius yet. She wandered in the wild with a wizard, which really surprised victor and made a test.

Andrea said modestly, "each of them is my vassal, including the War dog praised by you. They also belong to the Earl of Wimbledon."

"That's easy." Victor raised his eyebrows, turned to the black wizard and said, "take off your mask."

The black wizard hesitated obviously and looked at the left and right guards. Andrea frowned, clenched her teeth and said, "follow your Highness's orders, or we will all die."

"Baby, it's everyone except you..." Victor glanced at Andrea, his tone was frivolous, but his eyes were cold and sharp. "If you speak again, I promise they will all die."

The vassal wizards adopted by the Lord since childhood especially revered the system of knights and nobles, and could not understand the top figures of the kingdoms. Andrea, who claims to be her master, has been arrested. The black wizard dared to look left and right in the face of Victor's orders, which shows that there is something strange.

The black robed wizard took off the metal mask and showed his ordinary face. Victor wrote down his characteristics and asked, "what's your name and for whom?"

"I... my name is wood, loyal to Lord Wimbledon." The black wizard replied a little nervously.

"When did it happen?"

"Recently... Oh, no, it was a year ago. We were originally tenants of Kaifeng collar. The orcs invaded Kaifeng collar. The count's men saved me and my family." Wood said honestly.

"What is your witchcraft?"

"My Lord, I can temporarily gain an ability from dying people... Or monsters, and I can also get what I want to know. For example, if I perform witchcraft on a dying owl, I can have owl hearing and last for a big hourglass, but I can't become an owl and fly in the sky. I can also ask an owl a question to understand what I want to know If the owl doesn't know, there is no answer to the question. "

Wood took a deep breath, spoke more smoothly, pointed to the Centaur on the ground and explained, "I just learned the language of the Centaur temporarily with witchcraft, but it's only incidental. I asked what it saw in the east of Sidon wilderness according to the master's meaning. It answered my question. Even if it can't speak, I can know the answer it knows."

Victor watched the whole process of wood's magic casting in the dark. The facts he said were basically consistent with Victor's judgment.

Nodding slightly, Victor suddenly asked, "what nameplate do you use in the masked brotherhood?"

"Mask... What will it be?" Wood looked blankly, thought for a moment, and muttered, "Sir, I don't know... I haven't heard of a mask."

There was no stress change in heartbeat, respiration and blood flow rate, which was not a lie... Victor was relieved for the time being and said to Andrea, "the Duke of Barcelona also suspects that there is no Orc king?"

The countess said coldly, "I don't know what your highness is talking about. I just do what I should do."

The Sidon centaurs will not unite to attack the eastern development leader of the Sassanian empire for no reason. If there is no external pressure from the orc king, the biggest behind the war is likely to be the shining knights. Because they explore the northern wilderness, sooner or later they will fight to the death with the Sidon Centaur, and sooner or later they will meet the orc king. To be exact, the pressure of the human army will spawn one, or two or three Orc kings.

The Centaur army seems to understand the shortcomings of the human defense line, but their raid seems to be accurate, but in fact, they have unconsciously fallen into a desperate situation. The shining Knights lit the red smoke beacon, mobilized the troops of the whole human country, completed their work in one battle, and completely annihilated the Sidon Centaur, and the sassanne Empire became the biggest beneficiary.

Of course, the iron mountain nobles led by Basilius also benefited from it, but they didn't want to be hoodwinked by the shining knights and become losers on the battlefield.

Andrea tries to find out the accurate information, but she will not deny the existence of the orc king in front of her royal highness in the southern kingdom.

Victor would have done the same. Coincidentally, he met Andrea in the wild and caught her holding the handle of a wizard. Since she was strong and weak, he couldn't let her pass easily.

There are many people in this camp. Although Andrea can bring these people out with the wizard, they should all be her confidants, Victor can't be sure of their relationship with the Duke of Barcelona. Even if they are not the secret guards trained by the Barcelona family, it's difficult for people to really keep their mouth shut.

Mercury spies pry open more than one mouth with psychedelic drugs. Only alchemists can never reveal secrets.

Victor followed the aristocratic style and covered up his real intention with ambiguous affair. Even if Barcelona asked Andrea, she also had a high sounding excuse.

Anyway, the count of golden eyes is notorious for occupying the Viscount Buryat and hooking up with the fiancee of King Gambis. All kinds of past can't be cleaned up. It doesn't matter to add another stain of seducing the stormy knight.

X-3 picked up the body language and smiling way to please women in the little Baron's memory. Victor leaned over slightly and invited politely:

"Lord count, I admire your beauty and nobility. Do I have the honor to walk and roam with you in this forest? It's just the two of us."

His highness Randall's manners were impeccable, but he walked into the woods and waited in front. His irresistible attitude seemed tough and even rude to a noble Silver Knight. But his actions are like quiet moonlight, gurgling brook and flowing breeze. They are natural and close, so people can't feel bad.

Andrea's beautiful and delicate face flashed a faint blush and immediately disappeared. She turned back and said, "wait for me here."

The countess Wimbledon, usually with her eyes above the top, followed Victor into the depths of the forest. Her lovely and docile appearance made her confidants and guards look at each other.
