Chapter 839: An Unexpected Discovery (Three Chapters in One)

The only thing in the entire temple that was not contaminated with blood was a glowing red orb, the forcible sphere, which was placed on a shelf with a circle of spells.

Legend has it that this forced orb is indestructible, which aroused Abel's curiosity, and he did not take out the 'Klimt's will' first, but slashed the 'steel' sword in his hand on the forced orb.

With a 'bell', he felt a strong rebound of the 'steel' sword in his hand, and then looked at the forced sphere, but there was no damage, just like just now.

However, when Abel had just slashed at the forced orb, he seemed to see a rune pattern flickering.

In order to explore the mysteries, he turned on the dynamic visual and digital perspective abilities of the World Stone Fragment this time, and then slashed the 'steel' sword in his right hand into the forced sphere again.

This time everything was slow in front of him, and when the 'steel' sword slammed into the forced orb, a runic pattern was generated from the surface of the forcible orb, and then turned into a white light that enveloped the entire forcible orb.

The Forced Orb was still undamaged, and he stepped forward to take a closer look at the Forced Orb, and found that the Forced Orb was only made of crystal, not any special material.

However, the 'steel' sword in his hand is the Rune Language Sword, and the material used is fine iron, which itself can be cut out of the mark by cutting a piece of steel.

"Could it be that the rune just blocked my attack?" Abel muttered.

Because he had turned on the dynamic vision and digital perspective ability of the World Stone Fragment when he attacked just now, the whole picture of the rune was generated in his mind at this time.

The complexity of the rune was more than all the runes Abel had encountered, and if it weren't for the help of the Worldstone Fragment ability, he wouldn't have been able to memorize every detail of the rune so clearly.

Soon a rune appeared in his mind, and since it was only a form and no substance, he had no way of knowing what it did.

Seeing that the surroundings were safe, he took out a full set of rune-making tools from the 'Valaya's Ring', and took out a crystal nucleus of dark gold-level rune-making.

Although this was the first time he had seen such a rune, with the rune that had manifested in his head, and with the help of the power of the World Stone fragment, he was able to draw the rune in less than twenty seconds.

The drawn rune only stabilized for less than five seconds, and then in a cloud of white light, the crystal nucleus exploded violently.

In Abel's left hand, the 'Ancient People's Contract' shield appeared, blocking it in front of him, the explosion power of the crystal nucleus was not great, and the energy contained in it was too different from the perfect gem, and the intensity of this energy was also very different.

The energy in the crystal nucleus is very gentle, and it is because of this that it can be absorbed by the wizard when it is fresh.

Just now, the rune was stable for five seconds, and Able checked it through his mental power, and didn't find out what it did, but the fragment of the World Stone still gave a name, '33# Zod Sade'.

The only function of this '33# Zod Sade' rune is that it will never wear out, and the items it inscribes, even the most common and inferior iron swords, will become indestructible after being inlaid with '33# Zod Sade'.

"No wonder it exploded, this dark gold quality crystal nucleus simply can't withstand such a high-level rune!" Abel sighed as he put away the 'Ancient People's Contract' shield.

However, he still found the most common iron sword, which was left over from the first magic light sword made for the family dead, and there was already a groove in it.

He took out a dark gold quality crystal nucleus again, and then quickly drew '33# Zod Sade', and after twenty seconds, the rune was successfully drawn, and in the second moment it ended, he quickly embedded the rune into the groove of the light long sword.

Able knew that this rune had existed for a short time, and as soon as the light of the inlay flashed, 'Heradic Males' appeared in his hand, and slammed it down on the light long sword.

As an artifact specially forged, 'Hradic Marles' was adjusted to a weight of thousands of catties by Abel, and its destructive power to equipment surpassed that of all weapons, and it hit the light long sword heavily in an instant.

The '33# Zod Sade' inlaid on the light long sword appeared on the light long sword the moment it was hit, and then all the energy in the dark gold quality crystal nucleus poured out, supporting Fu Culture to protect the light long sword for a white light.

At the same time, the '33# Zod Sade' rune embedded in the light sword was reduced to fragments and fell from the groove before it was less than five seconds.

Looking at the light long sword that was not damaged at all, Abel couldn't help but shake his head, this '33# Zod Sade' is really indestructible, but what is the use of this little time.

These five seconds minus the time of inlay can only ensure that each item can support three to four seconds of indestructibility at most, and this rune must be drawn on the spot, so it cannot be used in battle at all.

And whether it is his weapon or shield, it is all Runeword equipment, and its sturdiness has not been broken by anyone until now.

"Chicken ribs!" Abel said speechlessly.

However, knowledge is priceless, and he has at least gained knowledge about the '33# Zod Sade' rune, which is also an accumulation.

Putting away the light sword and rune-making tools, he put down his research on '33# Zod Sade'.

Swapping the weapon in his hand for 'Klimt's Will', Able struck the 'Klimt's Will' hard at the forced orb, and something strange happened, this 'Klimt's Will' continued until the crystal surface of the forcible orb was shattered, and the '33# Zod Saad' rune did not appear.

I think it's really 'Klim's Will' that can suppress the self-protection of the forced orb, so that the '33# Zod Saad' rune cannot be activated, and therefore cannot protect the forced orb.

After the forced orb was broken, a large number of broken souls flew out of it, these were the sinful souls of the Zakalam Church controlled by Mephisto, and these souls flew and rushed towards the altar.

Then there was a sound of the platform activating, and the platform slowly descended, revealing a downward passage.

Able arranged for the nine Ghost Guardian Knights to enter the passage first, and then he walked in with the Clay Stone Demon.

........................

While Abel was in retreat, the situation in the Holy Continent took a strange turn, and the five vassal states of the Kingdom of St. Alice, including the Principality of Thunder, which was originally regarded as a lamb, now became a place of peace.

Of course, this peace did not come without a price, and the price was that each of the five principalities and the empire signed strict vassal treaties.

Today, only the Kingdom of St. Alice and its five vassal kingdoms have become places of peace in the entire Holy Continent, and tens of thousands of knights guard the peace of the empire, so that anyone who dares to offend its majesty will be punished as they deserve.

However, the kingdoms of St. Poll and St. Anvo were powerless, and the two empires could only maintain peace within their own empires, but they had no time to care about the chaos in their subjects.

And due to the shortage of food, even the two empires have appeared because of the contradictions caused by food, this contradiction is like an underground fire, hidden on the surface, but it may erupt at any time.

And the large number of marine fish that appeared in the Kingdom of St. Ellis made some people who had the strength but could not guarantee food start another round of migration.

The Empire's parliament reacted almost immediately, introducing a series of restrictions that allowed those who could emigrate to the Empire to be nobles or leaders of various trades.

Although the principalities also wanted to retain these talents, the situation within the principalities made it impossible for them to retain them with material conditions, and the strength of the Kingdom of St. Ellis forced them to let go.

The Kingdom of St. Ellis, like the former Duchy of Kamai, has developed explosively with the accession of Abel, and a large number of nobles and talents from all walks of life have entered the empire, making the empire extremely prosperous in the depression of the entire Holy Continent.

The situation of the Kingdom of St. Ellis made the two empires very excited, and they also tried to reach out to the sea, but ended up losing all the manpower that entered the sea.

The two empires learned through intelligence that these marine fish were purchased by the Kingdom of St. Ellis from the dwarves, so they directly contacted the dwarves and wanted to buy marine fish.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that the dwarves were now eager to empty all the fish in the ocean around the Titan Temple, so as to exchange more master wine and grandmaster wine from Abel, how could there be spare ocean fish to trade to them.

Due to the gradual change in the eating habits of the Kingdom of St. Alice, the consumption of marine fish is slowly balanced with the consumption of regular food, which allows the food produced in Harvest City to gradually maintain the food consumption required by the empire.

Unbeknownst to most people, Abel was already influencing the development of the entire Holy Continent.

The irrigation system he provided to the Dwarves allowed them to grow more land with fewer farmers, and the rise of marine fisheries gave them an abundant supply of food in an era of reduced food production.

Abel is in the fruit base of the Elven Aoya Valley, and provides a steady stream of fresh fruits to the Elven Anjost City every month.

The elves also changed some of their eating habits, and a small amount of meat entered the elven diet, making this passive change the elven race the second race to completely get rid of the food supply difficulties.

You must know that in the Shuangyue Forest, there is the largest wild animal living environment in the Holy Continent, and the number of beasts here is enough for the elves to survive this difficult period.

In the human world, Abel's own kingdom of St. Ellis has been able to ensure the supply of food, which has also preserved a strength for mankind, and will not greatly damage the strength of mankind because of this disaster.

One day in December, in the morning Abel dragged his tired body back from the dark world, and the exploration of the prison of hatred was far more difficult than he imagined.

In the past few months, he has been injured many times, and the chance of injury is much higher than before.

The speed of the hellish creatures in the Hate Prison and the large number of ranged attacks on the hell creatures, coupled with the suppression of mental power by the Hate Prison, made him almost afraid to use 'teleportation' to explore.

So in the past few months, he has only just explored most of the first layer of the hated prison, and the frequency of daily battles has kept his spirit in a tense state.

You must know that in the past few months in the Holy Continent, he has been fighting in the dark world for several years, and today he decided to take a break and check the operation of the empire by the way.

The water generated by the statue of the three goddesses outside the magic tower is now transferred to other containers by the tower spirit Flavi every day, so that the statue can produce more spring water at full capacity.

Now the role of the spring water of the three goddesses is too important, and every day in Abel's magic tower, there are puppets controlled by Taling Flavi to operate this matter.

A portion of the spring water is sent to the fields of Harvest City by a watering system, and a portion is waiting for Able to craft it using the Heradic Block in order to use it in a magical environment to grow wheat that can assist the knights in their cultivation.

Now the entire harvest city is a closed automated planting system, but sowing and harvesting still need a large number of farmers to operate, and the watering has been fully automated, the crops mature once a month, coupled with the strange energy in the spring water of the three goddesses, so that the harvest city is not affected by the crop yield reduction, and it is a high yield and harvest every month.

These crops are harvested and processed, and then transported to the entire empire to supply the needs of the empire.

"Flavi, is everything okay in Harvest City?" Abel asked, looking up into the air.

"Master, everything is running normally in Harvest City, but the powerstones of the statues of the three goddesses are about to be depleted, and they need your replenishment!" Taling Flavi's voice came from the sound transmission circle in the magic tower.

"So fast?" Abel paused for a moment, the powerstones of the statue of the three goddesses were all perfect gems, and they were already running out in just a few years.

You must know that the statue of the three goddesses has passed tens of thousands of years in the dark world, and there is no need to replace the energy source.

But when I think about it, the magic environment of the dark world is much richer than that of the Holy Continent, where the statues of the three goddesses can activate some functions even if they don't have powerstones as energy.

And the frequency of using the statue of the three goddesses on his side is almost full load, and the energy consumed by it is all provided by the perfect gem, which increases the speed of consumption too much.

Today's reminder from Taling Flavi reminded him of the issue of energy supply, and he needed to store a large number of perfect gems for later needs.

Give a large number of perfect gems to Tharing Flavi, who can use golems to replace powerstones for various devices, and even farther away from the Australasian Pavilion can provide powerstones there with teleportation circles.

Soon Abel's figure had already appeared in the imperial palace of the empire, and his appearance made the imperial parliament, which had not seen His Majesty the Emperor for many days, very happy, because although the parliament had been established and most of the government affairs had been completed by the council, some matters that had to be participated in by His Majesty the Emperor still needed Abel's decision.

"Burbee Butler, let the Empire's powerstone mines send me all the waste ores that are badly damaged, I need it!" Abel commanded Burbitch Butler in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" replied the Burbee butler, bowing.

"Your Majesty, Speaker Bennett of the Council is already waiting for you outside, and General Bodleigh is also preparing to see you!" the Burbee butler did not leave immediately, but continued to report.

"Father, please come in, and let General Bodley wait!" Abel hesitated for a moment, then said.

Soon Speaker Bennett had already walked in, and at this time he was no longer a little decadent because of the suppression a few months ago, and now he was full of energy, and the power brought people confidence and bearing.

"Your Majesty Emperor Abel!" said Speaker Bennett, bowing and saluting.

"Father, I haven't seen you for many days!" Abel said with a slight bow, he no longer persuaded Speaker Bennett, and the stubborn Speaker Bennett would not listen to his persuasion.

"Your Majesty, do I have something important to ask you for?" said Speaker Bennett, handing over a parchment scroll from his hand, and continued: "The three principalities of Rency, Pomo, and Si Zhu want to become vassals of our empire, and have expressed their willingness to sign the same subject treaty as the Principality of Thundering, for which there have been many quarrels in the parliament on this matter, but no consensus has been reached!"

Abel had heard of these three principalities, all of which were not far from the kingdom of St. Ellis, but they were vassal states of the kingdom of St. Poll.

Although the Kingdom of St. Poll is now powerless to control its own subjects, once the Kingdom of St. Ellis brings it into its sphere of influence, it is likely to cause some bad effects.

On the one hand, diplomacy with the Kingdom of St. Poll will cause hostility to the other side, and second, once this opening is opened, then more principalities may follow suit, which is inconsistent with Abel's desire for stability.

"Father, what do you mean?" Abel asked, after a moment's consideration.

"Your Majesty, I don't think the Empire can take this step, if it takes this step, then the Empire will be hostile to the other two Empires, and the stable environment we have now will no longer exist, and you must know that the crisis of reduced food production will end in a few years!" replied Speaker Bennett.

Abel smiled, this is the same as he considered, in addition to his own strength, the biggest reason why he obtained the imperial power of the Kingdom of St. Ellis is that the food crisis has made other principalities and empires, even if they know about his military operations, there is not enough military rations to support them to participate in the war.

Now that the crisis of reduced food production has passed for more than half of the time, if he were an ambitious emperor, then he would use this opportunity to destroy the other two empires, but the problem is that he is not.

The benefits of the three principalities becoming vassals are not great, and they are not enough to compensate for the losses of enmity with other empires.

The original structure of the three-part world, the vassals of each empire are more or less, but their lands are generally not much different, which is also a kind of balance.

Although Abel has the ability to break this balance, he doesn't even want to manage the current St. Ellis Kingdom, so what's the point of attacking the entire Holy Continent.

The most important thing is that if there are no enemies, his descendants will be slack off in the survival of this land, which is not good for their growth.

"Father, order down, the empire will not accept any vassals!" Abel said directly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" said Speaker Bennett, who rejoiced that having Able support his opinion had strengthened his prestige in the Parliament.

"The Kingdom of Sant'Anvo has sent you an invitation to attend the seventieth birthday of His Majesty the Emperor Aldous!" Speaker Bennett then reported.

"No, in the future, you will go on my behalf!" Abel refused directly.

"Then I've done the same with the invitation of the Kingdom of St. Poll here?" Speaker Bennett nodded, then asked again.

"Father, I'm not far from the realm of a high-level wizard, I'm likely to be in retreat for a long time, you're the Duke of the Empire, and you're ready to go in my place!" Abel replied.

Think of the Duke of Chesterton, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of St. Pollde, who is also a duke, but who would think that he is just a duke, everywhere everyone treats him as the head of the empire.

And Speaker Bennett's status at this time is almost the same as that of the Duke of Chesterton, with the same power in his hands, but the difference is that the power in Speaker Bennett's hands was forcibly given to him by Abel.

"The High Wizard of the Wizards Guild of Leante City Arenbi couldn't reach you, so he passed the news to me, and he said please help him make a staff!" Speaker Bennett said again.

"Father, in the future wizarding affairs, contact my Taling Flavi directly, and I will contact the senior wizard of Allenby directly!" Abel said with a smile.

The request of the senior wizard of Allenby must be helped, because he had already owed this senior wizard a favor before, and this time the senior wizard of Allenby was able to make a request, which made Abel feel quite relaxed in his heart.

It's hard to repay favors, just making a staff can repay favors, which is the easiest way for him.

Not being able to get in touch was inevitable, he had been in a high-load retreat for the last few months, almost cutting off all contact with the outside world, and every time he returned to the Magic Tower from the Dark World, he was still studying.

"Your Majesty, the Ancestor's Magic Tower has been found, what do you think of it?" Speaker Bennett then asked.

"Where is the Ancestor's Magic Tower?" Abel was also surprised when he heard the news, knowing that although the Ancestor was dead, his Magic Tower had become a mystery, and no one in the entire St. Ellis Kingdom knew where the Magic Tower was.

"Your Majesty, just two months ago, the guards smelled a stench of corpses in one of the Emperor's gardens, so they searched there, and found that under the ground there, ten royal dead soldiers had starved to death in the secret chamber. Bennett said with emotion.

Abel also shook his head slightly, the dead man is the heritage of a family, and his Harry family is incomparable to the Bennett family of Speaker Bennett at this point.

Without tens or hundreds of years, it is impossible to truly form a complete structure for cultivating dead soldiers.

Think of the empire before, there were many dead soldiers, and even the entire griffin knight was made up of dead soldiers.

However, after Abel took over the empire, the magic contract used was no worse than that of the dead, or the magic contract was more economical and practical than the dead, and more secure.

"When dealing with the secret room, I found a huge space hidden underground, surrounded by a shielding circle, which shielded an eighteen-story magic tower and its magical environment. Speaker Bennett introduced.

"Build a shielding circle underground and place the magic tower underground!" Abel was startled, it was fortunate that the old ancestor made trouble for him, otherwise he would rashly enter the palace of the Kingdom of St. Alice, it would be dangerous.

If the eighteenth-level Ancestor is in the magic tower, then the power of his spells will be greatly enhanced, and the shielding circle is an extremely rare magic circle, which can completely isolate the magic environment.

Even Abel didn't get this kind of magic circle, but thinking about the preciousness of this magic circle, he used the means of the elves to isolate the magic environment.

At least he had never dared to mix the magical environment with the ordinary people's residences, which had to be separated by at least a few tens of meters, but the Ancestor's magic tower was actually under the palace.

"Father, are you okay? if it's okay, I'll go and see what this eighteen-story underground magic tower looks like!" Abel immediately became interested, and he stood up and said.

Abel didn't invite Speaker Bennett, that kind of magical environment would be corrupted by magic unless you were a wizard.

"Nothing else, I'll retire first, Your Majesty!" Speaker Bennett bowed and left.

"Burbeech butler, lead the way!" Abel instructed Burbitch butler.

With Burbit's butler leading the way, Able came to the back garden of the palace, where the environment was elegant, and there was no space under the ground.

The entrance to the underground space is the bottom of a statue, and the Burbeech butler presses one of the statue's mechanisms, and the statue automatically moves away, revealing the entrance.

Abel knew that this mechanism was for ordinary people to use to enter the underground space, because as an eighteenth-level high-level wizard, for his magic tower, as long as he could directly 'teleport' within a distance, he could enter it, and there was no need for such trouble.

However, this is not Abel's magic tower, and if you want to enter the underground space, you still have to enter through this entrance honestly.

Walking into the entrance, there was an underground building, and he saw that there was a food storage room, which had been emptied, and only the empty grain bags were left on the ground, and it could be seen that the dead had held out here for months, until they starved to death.

There are also kitchens, some knights' quarters, training rooms, weapons rooms, etc., and this underground building is a small living quarter, and it seems that the dead here are supposed to serve the magic tower.

Like in the past, when Abel was studying in the magic tower outside Gomba City, there was a special person in Gangba City to serve the wizards in the magic tower every day, and exquisite food and cultivation materials had to be transported by special people.

It should be the same here, but the difference is that this ancestor has always used dead soldiers to serve him in order to conceal himself.

This can also know why no one in the entire palace knows the information of the Ancestor Magic Tower, thinking that the Ancestor's Magic Tower should be the last hole card of the St. Ellis Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, entering from here is where the Magic Tower is located!" the Burbee butler opened the bookcase in one of the rooms, revealing the underground space behind it.

Able saw a huge underground space, which was nearly 100 meters deep and almost the size of the back garden above.

In order for this huge underground space to be stable, he saw the patterns on the four walls of the underground space, these magic circle patterns reinforced the four walls, plus the above head was only where the garden was, and there were no large buildings in the palace, so its weight was not too heavy.

The most eye-catching thing in the underground space is the eighteen-story magic tower, which is different from the ordinary magic tower on the tower, and its dense and dense patterns are all patterns of gathering magic arrays, and it is not like the most solid materials used on ordinary magic towers, for fear of being destroyed.

And outside the magic tower, using the magic circle materials to draw the pattern of the magic array, after a long time, the wind and sun, or man-made destruction, will cause these magic array patterns to be damaged.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to see the magic tower outside that uses this method of construction, but it is different here, there is no wind and sun here, and no one will destroy it.

It's just that the shielding circle on the outermost part of the underground space is the best means of concealment, and this is where the imperial palace of the empire is located, so the security here is so high that there is no need to worry about someone coming to destroy it.

Leaving the Burbee butler outside, Abel's figure disappeared into the room and then reappeared in the underground space.

As soon as his feet stepped on the ground, he felt a steady stream of magic flowing upwards from the ground, which was a strange feeling.

"War Commander Spirit, scan the underground!" Abel commanded the War Commander Spirit in the Elder Identification Card on his waist.

"Yes, Elder, a scan is underway!" the message from the War Commander Spirit returned to him through his psychic power.

"Your Excellency Elder, the powerstone vein has been discovered, and the preliminary analysis is a high-grade bonanza!" After dozens of seconds, the War Commander Spirit fed back the scan results to Abel.

"Sure enough, this ancestor is too extravagant, one person has occupied a high-grade mana stone bonanza, no wonder he can reach the eighteenth level of a high-level wizard, no wonder he doesn't announce his wizard level, no wonder he wants to build the magic tower here!" Abel muttered to himself.

Almost immediately everything can be explained, perhaps even the establishment of this city of Denan was built after knowing that there was a high-grade bonanza of powerstones.

You must know that if wizards know that there is such a high-grade powerstone bonanza here, the wizards' guild alone will not let go of the resources here, even if they start a wizard war, they will occupy the powerstone high-grade bonanza here.

An empire alone can't stop the Wizards' Guild, Abel's eyes flashed when he thought of this, as if he wanted to consider whether anyone in the royal family knew about it.
