Chapter 1216 Records of the Great Library
The red velvet room on the top of the dim court was quiet. Prince Nash and Benadido in the mirror seemed to be thinking about their own affairs. After a while, Prince Nash, wearing a black robe and tall and thin, broke the silence first: "There are only two of us here. To be honest - do you think I am a qualified manager?"
"You shouldn't ask me this - you know, since I was set as a manager who always loyal and trusted Violet since my birth. I will not question your decision, nor will I doubt the operation of the Violet Kingdom," Benardo's expression became serious. She stood dignifiedly in the mirror, answering Nash Nalt's question meticulously as the day she first woke up, "This is the basis of my existence."
"Are we set goals for a lifetime at the beginning of our birth? In fact, in this regard, we are all similar," Prince Nash listened to the answer of the person in the mirror, and suddenly showed a self-deprecating smile on his face. "We were born in this world, and we were set up our identities and responsibilities from the beginning, farmers, merchants, craftsmen, scholars, nobles, warriors... and me, the "secret prince". You are right, we don't need to have doubts about the operation of the violet. It is a tightly tidy machine. It was set to run the operating rules at the beginning of our birth. As parts on the machine, we can rotate in our own position."
Prince Nash today seems to be more sentimental than usual. Benadido in the mirror just looked at him quietly, with no surprise in his eyes - this is a very normal phenomenon, because today is the "day of prayer". The sleeping Lord will release His breath from his dreams, listen to and respond to the voices of his people. In this day when the Lord is closest to the present, those "selected people" who are closest to the Lord will inevitably be affected, either become sentimental, suspicious, or hear or see many things that do not exist in the world. Compared with those who have been talking about it for several consecutive days, Prince Nash's reaction is already considered mild.
She waited quietly for Nash Nalt to return to normal state, and then saw the other party walking towards the desk with an arc surface. He picked up an open letter from the table, his eyes moved carefully, with seriousness and thought in his expression, which made Benardo unable to help but be curious: "Letter? You seem to have been reading that letter for a long time, which is not common... Where did it come from?"
"From the Cecil Empire," Prince Nash Yang's letter was in his hand, "a behemoth in the alliance."
"Divorce the diplomat delivered a letter? This is not the first time," Benadido blinked, "I have never seen you care so much before."
"Because this letter was written by the Gauvin Cecil himself," Prince Nash's expression became a little serious, and he slowly put the letter back on the table, "It seems... the energetic and long-sighted human ruler finally has time to pour more energy into us, and he is curious about our closed country."
Benadido's expression finally became surprised. She seemed to want to look at the contents of the letter - of course this did not succeed. She could only ask: "What did the human pioneer who had resurrected from the dead say in the letter?"
"In addition to the polite greetings and the topic of invitation to join the Continental route, he also mentioned... about the mages of Loren's continent traveling in the Violet Kingdom," said Prince Nash with a strange expression. "I thought at first he was referring to those mages who were apprentices in the Thousand Towers City, but it didn't seem like that. He was referring to ordinary travelers. He asked whether the Violet Kingdom would allow such mages to enter the Thousand Towers City... I felt strange."
"...Why did he suddenly pay attention to this matter?" Benadido frowned, "and when it comes to the travel wizard... The hinterland of the Violet Kingdom has always been prohibited from entering, and this matter is no secret. As a head of state, how could he think of asking about this matter in person?"
"He did not say it clearly in the letter, but I thought of the news that the spies sent to North Harbor and Winter County a few days ago," Prince Nash said lightly. "The spies said that the Wilder family in Loren's north suddenly began to investigate some very ancient information. In some more public information, they saw a name called 'Modir Wilder'..."
Benadido frowned slightly: "Modil Wilder...I seem to have an impression? Wait...I'll check the library."
As the Taling of the dim palace and also as the director of the "Grand Library", Benadido holds most of the "memory" of the entire Violet Kingdom. She knows what the mages who are traveling abroad know, and also knows the history and endless secrets within the country. Almost as she finished speaking, this powerful artificial soul had found the name of Modir Wilder from the big library.
"Finish... an ancient man six hundred years ago, who was once the controller of the Wilder family - but he seemed more keen on adventures and traveling around than a human aristocrat," in the mirror, the room behind Benadido turned into an extremely wide library, with countless bookshelf and quaint collections behind her layer by layer, circling and listing. She had a big book (decorative) in her hand, pretending to read the text on it, and nodding, "There are records that he even tried to search for the secret route of Gowen Cecil and the clues of the origin of the silver elves... I see what was written at the end of the record, ah, there is-
"This great adventurer disappeared in his last adventure. There are records that he appeared briefly in the north of the mosswood forest during his last journey and continued to move north. That was the last trace he left in the world... His disappearance caused a great storm in Ansu. The Wilder family and Ansu royal family mobilized half of the country to find their dukes. The search operation almost covered the entire northern continent... Of course, nothing was found. The large-scale operation also attracted the attention of the spies, so the relevant information was also circulated back to the Violet Kingdom."
After Benadido finished speaking, he closed the book, and the large library behind him returned to its original room. She nodded to Prince Nash in front of the mirror: "This is all the information. It seems that the Cecilians suspected that their big adventurer who disappeared back then had 'traveled' to us?"
Prince Nash's brows did not relax at all, but frowned even more, and his expression became more confused: "Then I can't understand even more - an ancient man who had disappeared six hundred years ago, why did Cecil suddenly remember to find clues for him now? And he also put the search target on us?"
Benardo thought about it carefully and said seriously: "Because they react slowly?"
Prince Nash: "…I'm not kidding."
Seeing Nash's serious expression on his face, Benadido in the mirror also put away his joking thoughts. After a brief thought, she spoke to break the silence: "It seems that the incident did not end with the disappearance of the great adventurer Modir - to this day, some new changes may have occurred in the "Ancient Man", and this change is so great that the rulers of the Cecil Empire must personally inquire about it..."
"A new change... is another resurrection of the dead?" Prince Nash used a plain and casual tone, but his eyes were even more serious than before. After a moment of hesitation, he couldn't help looking at the person in the mirror and confirmed, "Search your library - has the human wizard named Modir really visited Violet? The Cecils attach so much importance to this matter, they should not make any judgment on this matter..."
"I had already searched when I was 'joking' with you, Nash," Benardo shook his head and said with some regret. "It's a pity that the great adventurer really hadn't been here back then - you should know that no one could hide it from my eyes when he was approaching the Violet's hinterland. Under the gaze of the 'Eye of Night', everything in the Thousand Towers City and surrounding areas will be recorded in the collection of thousands of books in the Great Library."
"Can no one hide the gaze of the Night Eye..." Prince Nash murmured softly, then stepped from his desk to the convex belly window at the end of the room. Through the pure crystal glass, he overlooked the Thousand Towers City. Then he looked over the ancient and stacked city below, over the high walls of the Thousand Towers City, and looked at the endless lush forest outside the city.
In the hinterland of the Violet Kingdom, there is no road connection between cities, and the Thousand Towers City is surrounded by dense forests without dead corners. The various areas are filled with forests and fogs that cannot be reached and passed. For outsiders who have not received invitations, even if they really have some ability to identify roads in forests and fogs, they cannot pass through those barriers to reach the Thousand Towers City.
Because the "path" does not exist at all - in the real "view", those cities are filled with huge voids that cannot be crossed from the present world. The so-called forests and fog are just curtains created to cover up those voids, just like the sets and blocking objects on the stage of the drama, the rotating gears and mechanisms under the stage are hidden.
How could any "human travel wizard" pass through the forests and fog and be lost in the city of Thousand Towers?
Prince Nash smiled and shook his head, walked back to the desk, and Benadello in the mirror asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
"Basic etiquette and respect are necessary. I will write a reply first," Prince Nash said casually as he reached out to the paper and pen next to him. Then he hesitated for a moment and added, "In addition, I decided to accept part of the invitation from the 'Alliance' to let the peripheral cities of the Violet Kingdom join the Alliance's continental route in the form of an 'independent trade city'."
A hint of surprise appeared on Benadido's face: "Aren't you always not interested in that route to the mainland?"
"Who said I was not interested?" Nash raised his eyebrows. "I was just not interested in the so-called 'trade', but I have always been very interested in the changes in the situation in the continental Loren... and our Lord just issued a metaphor order to keep us involved in the continental Loren. At this time, I have obviously had sufficient reasons to let some peripheral cities join the continental route."
...
The sky light near dusk sprinkled into the study room covered with blue velvet carpets. The sunlight shone brightly on a metal decoration on the edge of the desk. Gao Wen stopped his hand reviewing the documents and looked up at Amber standing opposite him: "Calculate the time, Victoria should be almost at the Eternal Storm Sea now, right?"
"Almost, after all, she flew directly over, much faster than the ship," Amber said casually, her eyes turned, and an untuned expression appeared on her face, "Hey, what kind of expression would that ice face really have when she saw her ancestor? If that Modir was really Modir Wilder six hundred years ago..."
"I don't know, and I don't bother to guess. I only know that Victoria is a calm person. She won't knock on the ancient coffin like you." Gao Wen glanced at the half-elf, and then changed his subject, "Is there any new news from the 'gate' project?"
"Everything is going on in an orderly manner and progresses very quickly," Amber immediately replied. "The energy part we are responsible for is mature technology, and Carmier personally supervised it. Basically, it is only necessary to complete the construction of the facilities step by step. As for the Tifeng people... the "door opening" technology they have on hand seems to be very mature, and there are even many portal components that have been built in their country and can be directly sent to the Contractor for installation. According to Carmier, the Tifeng people seem very confident in this matter, and have shown full sincerity and enthusiasm for work..."
"Their technology should be mature," Gao Wen smiled and nodded, "After all, it is the ready-made knowledge that the Augustus family has obtained directly from the Eye of God. I'm afraid even the Blueprints were stolen directly. If it weren't for the basic energy part that could not be skipped, they might not even need our help to open the door."
"That's right, after all, there are ready-made ones..." Amber nodded, but as soon as she was halfway through her words, she looked out of the window of the study with a shock, "Ah, why are they here?"
Before she finished speaking, Gao Wen could sense the breath. He turned his head to look at the wide floor-to-ceiling window, and two figures about the size of a dog were stumbled and stumbled in the air - they were two blue young dragons with bright eyes with beautiful thin scales. They flew from the direction of Embassy Street and after a strange slowdown process, they smashed the small platform outside the floor-to-ceiling window with a nearly crashing momentum. Gao Wen had only a "ah" sound, and then he heard two "bang" sounds in front and behind. One young dragon hit the window frame and the other hit the platform.
If you want to change to an ordinary human, you will be at least a second-degree disability.
However, the two young dragons were panicked and quickly recovered from their little dizziness. They rolled and crawled up, pushed and shoved to the front of the glass, first stared at Amber and Gao Wen in the room, and then raised their heads at the same time, and began to smash the window sash with their hard noses.
"Hey, why are these two little guys coming again... And they have been flying all the way from the embassy in just a few days?" Gao Wen muttered in surprise, and then realized that the unsolid window might not be able to withstand the harm of the two young dragons. He quickly got up and opened the window, "Hey, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, I will open the window for you..."
