The witch left the hall without even giving the two of them a chance to explain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Roland tilted his head slightly, "What's going on, can you see something?"

"Both sides are telling the truth. The nightingale whispered in her ear.

I see, he thought for a moment, and quickly guessed the general idea of what happened. The truth does not mean the truth, but the "truth" that I believe to be true, and it seems that the problem lies in the book that records the family history.

"Since you have made a special trip from Changge Fortress, don't rush back first, stay at Feilin's house for a few days, and by the way, you can also visit the scenery of the town. Roland looked at the dazed Sir Sir "I'll ask her about the situation, and maybe I'll be able to talk to you again when the time comes." ”

"Yes...... Is that so?" Sir was stunned, then lowered his head and said, "Then there is His Highness Law." ”

"By the way, where are those magic stones and ancient books you brought with you now?"

"It's all in the cabin, there are about a dozen boxes. ”

"Very well, let's transport it all to the castle," Roland nodded, "and seeing that her things from more than four hundred years ago are still alive, I think her mood will be eased." ”

......

After dinner, the prince summoned Agatha to his office.

"You ought to hear what Sir Silt has to say," he retold the story, "whatever your steward does, he at least comes to you with the idea of returning things to their rightful owners, and perhaps to make up for the duty owed by their ancestors." ”

"He's just deceived his own descendants, and these people don't owe me anything," Agatha pouted, "and now that the witch family is meaningless, they're one of the nobles of the West, right?

Roland was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the other party to think of this, and then shook his head with a smile, "Okay, you have a point." But you seem to ...... Don't blame them?"

"I don't need to accumulate a wrath against a mortal four hundred years ago to his descendants, who don't even know about it. ”

Worthy of being an enlightened person in the witch kingdom, Roland sighed in his heart, whether it is his attitude towards mortals or the degree of acceptance of new things, he has a positive attitude. In her own opinion, this is undoubtedly an excellent mentality, but for Tachira, who is more than 400 years old, I am afraid that it is an unusual performance, and it is no wonder that she will be ostracized by other witches in the Secret Society.

"In that case, I'll explain it to them," he laughed, "and then, I wonder if you're interested in taking stock of your legacy?"

Agatha rolled her eyes and said angrily, "It's not mine, it's the legacy of the Quest Society." ”

......

All the chests were moved to the castle basement, and in addition to Agatha, Roland called Tilly, Sylvie, and Anna.

Under Sylvie's scrutiny, the chests were opened one by one—ten of the fifteen wooden boxes contained magic stones. Roland casually took out a palm-sized spar and smacked his tongue, "You said that they were all transformed from the Divine Punishment Stone, and such a large Divine Stone is probably worth two or three hundred golden dragons." ”

"Two or three hundred golden dragons?" said Agatha disdainfully, "Magic stones can only be made by Chaos Beasts, and each one of them can be regarded as priceless. ”

"What kind of magic stones are these?" Tilly asked, "They don't look like a good fit to carry around." ”

"Glowing Stone," she pressed the stone in the prince's hand and injected it with magical power, and the pale yellow light suddenly flowed out, quickly exceeding the brightness of the torch, and she did not let go of her hand until the light was a little harsh. "Most of this place is made up of glowing stones, and with the exception of the Chaos Beasts, the rest are the trophies we captured from our attack on the Devil's camp. ”

"How do magic stones be polished into different sizes?" Anna wondered, "Since they were originally Divine Punishment Stones, it means that they can't be cut with ability, but the whole Divine Stone is very hard, and it doesn't look like a knife and axe can do it." ”

"The whole Divine Stone?" Agatha was stunned, "You mean the Divine Stone Vein?"

"It's at the bottom of the mines in Frontiertown," Roland recounted the contents of the treasure map, "and its surface is so hard that even the musket can only leave a shallow mark on it. ”

"I see," she couldn't help laughing, "that's how you found my test tower with this drawing." That's right, it was indeed used by the Exploration Society to mark the veins of the Divine Stone and select a site for the construction of the Holy City in the future. ”

"Holy City?" the four of them said in surprise.

"Otherwise, why do you think there are more than a hundred cities on the Fertile Plains, but there are only three holy cities? The corners of her mouth curled, "The so-called holy cities are all cities built on the veins of the Divine Punishment Stone. In addition to making it easier to explore the relationship between magic and magic stones, and also to prevent the battle between witches from causing extensive damage, these require the consumption of a large number of Divine Punishment Stones. ”

"So you originally planned to build a new holy city on the North Slope Mountain?" Roland said in surprise.

"If the battle of the Divine Will hadn't been lost so quickly," Agatha sighed, "and so would the Savage Ridge at the Break of the Desperate Mountains—now you call it the Hermes Plateau, the site of the Holy City of the Church. ”

"And they've continued the Holy City," Tilly frowned, "and that makes it more likely that those people are the heirs of the Federation." ”

Fortunately, they didn't build the Holy City of the Church in the West, Roland sighed quietly.

"In short, the stone itself is almost indestructible, and a special solvent is necessary to divide and use it," Agatha continued, "witch's blood with magical powers...... Or devil's blood. ”

"Blood...... Liquid?" Sylvie's eyes widened.

"That's right, depending on the quality of the Divine Stone, there is more or less blood needed," she said, "In the Holy City, adult witches are obligated to give their own blood. Since the blood loses its magic power soon after leaving the body, it must be used in cash, and every two or three years, the witches with the right conditions will go to the ore vein area to donate blood under the assignment of the Federation, and of course, the devils caught are also used for this. ”

"Have you had that experience too?" asked Anna.

"Of course," Agatha nodded, "even if it's the three seats in the Federation. ”

"What about the beasts?" said Sylvie, "some hybrids seem to have magical powers, too. ”

"Indeed, but their magic content is minimal, and they can only be used to deal with broken divine stones, and they are useless against the original veins. Agatha replied, "When the Divine Stone is divided, its strength decreases dramatically as its size decreases, and its area of influence will also be greatly reduced. For example, the Stone of Divine Punishment, which is easy to carry around, can be easily broken with a hammer. ”
