Through Magnum III's narration, Eluma learned what exactly happened on this land.
A coup, a coup filled with the evil of God and people.
A year ago, Magnum III returned to his kingdom in June as usual and began to convene the annual national parliament. When he returned to Magnum, he heard rumors about a "coup". Under the investigation of his Shadow Legion and the Third Legion, the truth of the matter soon came out. The so-called coup was that his unsatisfactory second son Vinod Alsa wanted to unite the northern army and take advantage of his departure from Magnum to lose control of the country to carry out a coup and overthrow his own rule.
After clarifying the truth, Magnum III was not angry at the first moment, but a helpless feeling that iron could not be transformed into steel. The reason why he has never determined an heir is because several of his sons have more or less fatal flaws.
The ambition and ability of the second son Vinod Alsa were completely unmatched, and the coup he planned looked like a clown in front of Magnum III. It was hard for Magnum III to imagine that his second son could be so stupid. He did not investigate his own legions, did not weaken Magnum III's influence, and did not take advantage of Magnum III's departure to launch a public opinion war. He actually wanted to assassinate himself so simply and straightforwardly and start a war. How shockingly stupid was this.
The third son, Silik Alsa, is not as stupid as the second son, but this third son has an extremely meek character and has no ambition. Since becoming an ordinary tax collector, he has never thought about going further. The ability is there, but the state of mind does not match. Of course, Magnum III did not make things difficult for him. After giving him enough wealth and a position to keep his wealth, the third prince was forgotten by the third generation.
So someone asked, what are the flaws of the eldest prince?
The eldest prince, Keze Alsa, is a lesson to the world. He is positive, optimistic, kind and gentle. His methods are as destructive as thunder, but his essence is as dazzling as a gem. It can be said that as the eldest prince of Magnum, Keze Alsa has only one shortcoming.
he died.
When the eldest prince was twenty-five years old, he went to a southern border town to investigate the tax collector there. Later, under those almost barbaric behaviors, the eldest prince died of malaria. The next year, the town disappeared from the map forever.
"My second son Vinod wanted to attack me on the grounds that I paid off the town. He first launched a public discussion to discuss whether what I did back then was procedurally fair. But because he couldn't pass the law After the review of the Political Department, the matter was finally dropped. Of course, I knew that he was planning an assassination, and I also knew his thoughts and plans."
After taking a sip of hot tea, Magnum III said slowly: "However, I am not ready to kill him directly. I know Vino, he is ambitious, but he also has self-knowledge. He knows that his abilities and ambitions are completely inconsistent with Matching, so his sudden attack must be driven by a force powerful enough to make him expand."
When she heard the four words from the man behind the scenes, Eluma roughly understood what happened. Sure enough, after a brief pause, Magnum III continued:
"I didn't arrest him, or even give him a warning. Under my temptation, he directly showed the twelve moments of blessing at a certain banquet and called himself the Chosen Son. At that time, I understood that He We can’t wait.”
Looking at Eluma in front of him, Magnum III put down the teacup in his hand and said calmly: "I understood at that time that since I have returned to Magnum, they are destined not to let me leave to continue to help you. Very soon. Most likely, they will make me into a puppet used to mislead you, and turn me into a puppet that obeys their orders. After all, they will do whatever they can, and I understand my value."
"I was quickly prepared. Between being controlled by the gods and dying, I wanted to choose death. I wanted to use death to remind you that the current situation is one of no end."
His eyes fell on Don Quixote, who was wiping the sword in his hand. Magnum III said with a faint smile: "So, before my traitor comes to the hall with the holy sword of twelve blessings, he is ready to let me When I surrendered, I chose to resist. I summoned the Third Legion and the Shadow Guards and began to strangle Vino's troops. Halfway through the killing, as expected, the twelve quarters took action."
"The giant lava beast, the envoy of the God of Chaos, appeared majestically in the palace of the human king and destroyed all my legions and guards. I was ready to die. As long as I died, , my last legion on the border will spread the news of my death. But what I didn’t expect was that at this moment, she took action."
The simple and heavy armor on Don Quixote's body appeared in his eyes. After sighing, Magnum III said with a bitter smile: "What I didn't expect was that Don Quixote saved me in the end."
"This is my mission."
Putting the cleaned long sword aside, Don Quixote's expression remained the same as before. In addition to the calmness of a soldier, there was only a restraint that was invisible to others. "Guarding Magnum is the ancestral motto of the Don Quixote family. We It has been observed for hundreds of years and should not be broken at my hands.”
"But your grandfather didn't protect my father."
Magnum III smiled, with emotion in his eyes, "The besieged king, as well as 3,600 civilians and teachers, your grandfather finally chose the latter."
Hearing this, Don Quixote did not answer. She wanted to say something, but she was at a loss for words as she was not good at words. But what she didn't expect was what Magnum III said next.
"Your grandfather was right."
Nodding, Magnum III slowly said under Don Quixote's somewhat surprised gaze: "My father told me when he led me to break out that your grandfather did the right thing. The Magnum family is the Magnum family. A man from Nan, but Magnum has never been owned by the Magnum family. Your grandfather has always been guarding Magnum, and that has never changed."
"Eluma."
Looking at Eluma aside, Magnum III spoke slowly, "Take her away."
"you···"
Don Quixote frowned. Just as she was about to say something, Magnum III interrupted her.
"Listen to me, Don Quixote."
Waving his hand, Magnum III said with a smile: "Your grandfather is right, guarding Magnum is the ancestral motto of your Hode family. But if the world collapses due to disaster, then Magnum will also It no longer exists.”
"Go ahead. Compared to me, Eluma is the one you should follow."
Don Quixote was stunned. She stared at the old man in front of her. For a moment, she realized that she still hadn't seen through the king. After a long time, she nodded with a complicated expression and said in a deep voice: "I understand."
"Eluma, Magnum has become the lair of the Twelve Hours."
Looking at the girl in front of him, the old man said slowly: "The port and dock have been completely blocked for a long time. If you go there now, it is like throwing yourself into a trap. If you go to Muqi, only Muqi has not been swallowed up by the Twelve Hours, and only Muqi has not been swallowed up by the Twelve Hours. Oddly enough, you can find a way that belongs to you.”
"Mr. Muqi was right not to come back. His country is different from any other country. A country without the blessings of gods seems sad, but in fact, this is the wisdom of the old guy Muqi. "
After gasping for breath, Magnum III coughed a few times, and then continued: "Now, Twelve Quarters cannot interfere in any affairs in Muqi, and they cannot control the entire country by controlling the old guy Muqi. So, as long as If you can enter Muqi, you have a great chance of entering the Three Eastern Courts."
"I've thought about this before."
After sighing, Eluma said helplessly: "Mr. Muqi wanted me to transfer from Muqi to Dongfang Santing from the beginning, but Twelve Moments also thought of this. The only forest road has been blocked, and now The airship is also controlled by Twelve Hours, and there is no way to enter Muqi."
"Yes, there is one more."
Pointing in a direction that Eluma had long ignored, Magnum III twitched the corners of his lips and said softly: "Don't forget, there is more than one forest."
"Hundreds of years ago, if you wanted to go to Muqi, Magnum had only one choice."
Twilight forest.
Dusk Forest is said to be a forest, but it is actually the lowest level of a tower. The tower was built by ancient civilization, and it contains the well of spiritual power that has been corroded-Canglan. When the Blue Well was corrupted by demons, countless evil spirits and monsters representing disasters spawned in this land. The location of the Twilight Forest is the terminal where the magic power flowing throughout the Blue Well reaches. Since the magic power will be lost during the flow, the degree of corrosion of the magic beasts in the Twilight Forest is not deep, and most of them remain intact. Habits during life.
At this time, the tower had lost its original appearance, and the forest had become the main color of the Blue Well. Of course, the Twilight Forest itself is also a symbol of terror and ferociousness. After all, those twisted trees that will make you go crazy just by looking at them are enough to scare you away, not to mention the monsters all over the ground and the monsters lurking in the dense forest. Mites.
"Is it Ms. Ain?"
Walking to the private room of the teahouse, Eluma took off her hood, looked at the girl in black and white maid uniform in front of her, and asked: "You should have received the news, I need a map of the Twilight Forest."
"Just call me Ain."
The girl with intellectual beauty in front of her pushed up her red thin-framed glasses, then handed a scroll to Eluma and said to her: "Twilight Forest has a total of four entrances to the southeast, northwest and northwest. The western part is the most dangerous because of the White Spirit Tiger clan. . There are also many ordinary adventurers who have died in the permafrost realm in the north. There are many mosquitoes in the south. Although you can rely on certain methods to avoid them, those mosquitoes still cause a lot of harm to adventurers."
"I personally recommend that you enter from the northern mountainous area, pass through the Black Worm Forest, avoid the vicious swamp, and then go to Muqi. Otherwise, it is easy to encounter strange people..."
After saying this, Ain paused. She remembered what Magnum III told her, and realized that for an incredibly strong professional like Eluma, these so-called dangers were actually just a joke.
"I will start from the realm of permafrost."
Putting away the map, Eluma said softly: "Thank you for the information."
"This is what I should do."
Ain bowed slightly and said respectfully: "Your Excellency Eluma, I wish you success."
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
The biting cold wind blew against her face, and Eluma's body was shrouded in a faint black mist, preventing even the slightest bit of chill from entering. She stamped her feet lightly, and then walked on the deep snow as if on flat ground.
For the god-given Eluma, this temperature and the so-called difficulty in walking have almost no meaning. She didn't even need to use many professional abilities. Simply releasing the black mist around her body was enough for Eluma to withstand the cold wind and biting chill.
After passing through the permanently frozen field, Eluma saw several snow-white tigers not far away. According to the markings on the map, these tigers are the white spirit tigers that scare adventurers who explore the Dusk Forest. These tigers can launch attacks on the soul, directly tearing apart the opponent's soul, making it difficult to defend against.
Of course, as far as Eluma is concerned, Bai Linghu is just the number one dog. If he can be killed with one punch, he should be killed with one punch. There is no other problem.
Snowy mountains, swamps, jungles, Eluma would sometimes release Zhou Li's crystal coffin to let him "breathe" fresh air. There was only dead silence in the alien space opened by the Black Emperor, so Eluma was afraid that Zhou Li would feel lonely, so she would also talk to the sleeping Zhou Li and talk about things about the future and the past.
Life in the Twilight Forest was not stable, and Twelve Moments was not stupid. They easily noticed that Eluma had entered the Twilight Forest. They quickly sent hunters into the Dusk Forest to look for Eluma, but what they didn't expect was that Eluma set out from the northern entrance not for the distance, but for the monsters.
She transformed the monsters into the people of the Black Emperor.
Eluma knew that these monsters were not enough to stop these hunters. All she wants is a cover-up. Sure enough, these hunters began to look for Eluma following the traces of the monsters. But what they didn't expect was that Eluma had already returned to the entrance of the Twilight Forest after transforming the monster.
Later, Eluma entered the Twilight Forest along the southern entrance. After three days of trekking through mountains and rivers, she broke through the twelve-quarter blockade and entered Muqi's territory.
At this time, Muqi has been blocked economically and technically by Magnum, so most of its technology is at a stagnant stage. However, under the command of Mr. Muqi, Muqi miraculously achieved self-sufficiency in a short period of time, and even began to develop natural technology with the help of Herinin from time to time.
even···
Raising her head and looking at the towering tree, Eluma's eyes flashed with shock.
is her.
