The Legacy of the Elves [Arihiko]

Chapter 31 The Illusory Realm of Water Spirits

"Punishment...wait a minute, you are beneficial...I really didn't do anything...don't you believe me?" Seeing that Lili walked over with a solemn expression, he became more and more nervous. It was all Conrad, After drinking so much, I'm afraid I won't remember anything if I ask him tomorrow.The favorable face gradually drew closer, and then drew closer, so close that his slender eyelashes could be counted, and what flowed past his ears was the same as usual—no, it was a more gentle voice than before—

"Fool, how can I have the heart to punish you?" Pettingly stroking the golden head in my arms, suddenly remembering all the abnormalities of Wolf tonight, I couldn't help but say again, "Hey, Wolf, what happened to you today ? So quiet, not like you at all."

"I... don't know... I can't feel the place that belongs to me, so uncomfortable, so empty... Li can joke with others, but I don't know what to do, what to say... What's going on, before It's never been like this before, but today...it's really disappointing..."

He is really strange, but also very lovable.

"Favourable, tell me, have I always been like a child without growing up at all?"

"Uh?"

"Forget it, asking you means you didn't ask. Go to bed, it's late."

"Well, do you really not have to wait for Junda to come back?"

"You playboy, why do you care so much about Junda?! Say, did you and him do something to offend me?!"

"How can there be~~~I just asked casually~~~"

"Humph."

Under the night, in the outskirts of Wencotilan, among the ruins that had long been submerged in the weeds, several rows of crosses of the undead nearby were already covered with dust.A long-haired man in a plain robe stood silently in front of one of the crosses.The night ceremony not far away was still going on, and the brightly lit party was still going on, but there was no joy in the corner of his eyes.A tied bouquet of rare green orchids lay quietly next to it, absorbing the poor light of the night, dim but still beautiful.

"I'm back again, Yvette. Sorry to keep you waiting."

Huh, I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time.Lili opened his eyes and stretched his waist. The first thing he saw was not Conrad who told him to get up early in the past—the one who was still suffering from a hangover in the bathroom, turned out to be boringly flipping through the diary on the rattan chair ——Von Kleist Qing Junda.

"Junda, where did you go yesterday, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, because I went to visit a friend yesterday, so I couldn't stay by Your Majesty's side all the time."

"That's it... But Junda, your complexion doesn't look very good."

"Ah? My complexion is not good? Ah, what can I do? How can my haggardness affect your majesty's mood for a day-wait for me, your majesty, Junda will be back soon~~~" I am about to enter the state of nympho Master Wang Zuo rushed towards the bathroom as if flying.

When Junda finished the torment of the nosebleed state, Konrad bid farewell to the torment of the hangover, and Wolfram got up from the warm bed, and after personal washing, the envoy of Wincotilan had been waiting outside the door for a long time.After a brief diplomatic conversation, everyone got into the car and rushed to the suburbs.

Uncotilan borders Croatia and continues the maritime climate of neighboring countries. The climate here is warm and humid, and the temperature does not change much throughout the year.Thanks to this, you can see forests all over the mountains in the suburbs, and these forests also make this place the most important wood production place in the different world.

The carriage drove for about an hour on the trail among the dense forests, and stopped in an open place in the forest.When we get off the bus, the first thing that catches our eyes is the pyramid-like building of the Mayans. On the front sits a stone figure about ten meters high. The whole body is white and has not been stained by the baptism of years.

"Patriarch Wincott Istan, erected shortly after his death."

"Hey, have you all arrived?" Looking towards the base of the statue in surprise, it turned out that Liya and Reina had already arrived.

"Okay, then everyone follow me in."

"Uh, wait a minute, didn't you say it's a palace? How can there be any palace here? Where are we going?" Li Li was puzzled, that's right, apart from this statue, there are no other buildings nearby, let alone It is said that it looks like a palace.

"That's why it's a secret palace. If you let laymen see it casually, wouldn't everyone know where the things are, and everyone will come to snatch them?" Liya said with a smile, and took out a gemstone from her bosom. After fumbling for a while, it was stuffed into a groove in the middle of the base relief.A cyan light gradually appeared on her hand, and a moment later, a stone slab was removed from the center of the relief, revealing a piece of pitch black.

"The entrance to the palace is here, and you can enter after the miasma clears."

"Uh, my lord..."

"What's the matter, Your Excellency Junda?"

"What you used just now must be magic power, right? This is on human land."

"Your Excellency Junda, I heard that you have been here before. How could you not know that the demons here can still activate magic power with the power of magic stones? Moreover, the contract we signed with the king of elves only 18 years ago will This place has become a land of magic power, and using magic power freely is no longer a new problem."

"That's it... But, who has such a great ability to sign a contract with the king of elves? That's something that even His Majesty the True King can't do!"

"Some people didn't do it, I'm afraid it's just because they don't want to do it. Such a thing is actually very simple, even like me, it can be realized. There are so many demons with powerful magic power in the real demon country, why no one try it? "

Although the light is not very good, Liya, who was the first to turn sideways just now, raised an imperceptible arc at the corner of her mouth, suspiciously sneering, and the hidden arrogance in her tone just now was completely different from yesterday's humble attitude, as if she was changing one person.But it seems that only Junda noticed it.

"Junda, what are you doing? You can go in." Before entering the palace, Conrad noticed that Junda was still staring at the entrance, and kindly reminded him.

"Oh, I know."

A section of dark and winding tunnel, relying on the light of the torch jumping in the hand, can vaguely distinguish the ground paved with bluestone slabs, with slight traces of polishing, so that it will not slip when walking.But just like this, it doesn't look like a palace.It's more like...the tomb passage...

"Originally, this was Wincott's stronghold when he was living here. It was built like this for the sake of secrecy. After we settled down, in order to make full use of wartime resources, it was transformed into a sanatorium for the leader, and also stored Some important artifacts from Wincotilan."

"Rehabilitation? If I wouldn't choose this place, it doesn't seem to help the body recover at all." Xiaobao frowned slightly, even if someone often took care of it to remove the attached moss, the humid air would not How good will the taste in the authenticity become.

"Really? Don't be fooled by the appearance of this place! I still remember that when I was 10 years old, my father brought me here once - I could still see it at that time. It's almost the same as now, it's also a damp, but it's inside , it’s not the same at all.”

"here is?"

After a short period of darkness, the incoming light shines through a not-so-narrow passage, all the way down, and finally reaches the spacious hall of the so-called "Secret Palace".The hall, which is structured like an opera house, is divided into two floors. The almost transparent walls are inlaid with shining magic stones. The light refracts psychedelic colors in the hall, illuminating the underground palace as bright as day, sky blue The dome of the building is open to the outside world, dotted with bright gemstones, shining like stars; there are two huge door openings with a width of five meters on each of the four walls, and there are sporadic small holes for ventilation. Satin lines the walls and surrounds the arches.Several crystal bonsai seem to be unintentionally placed on the glazed ground, surrounded by the naturally formed streamer, like green hills by the water.If heaven is not a fantasy, it must be here; if Penglai Wonderland is not illusory, it must be right in front of us.

"My lord father said that the so-called offerings of water spirits are kept in the deepest room in the left door to the north, and Reina will take us there. But everyone should follow closely. There are many rooms here, and the scenery is said to be It also has a hallucinogenic effect, which can relieve the pain of the wounded and sick, but it may lead the healthy people astray. If you are not familiar with the structure here, it will be difficult to get out. Reina, lead the way."

The decoration of the corridor wall in the door opening is not much different from that of the hall, except that the light is slightly dimmed. There is a row of door openings along both sides of the corridor, and the wooden doors painted in cool colors are locked tightly. The card is engraved with characters that are similar to but not exactly the same as the real Devil's Kingdom characters.

"Hey, Wolf, I don't know what's in it, it can't be a treasure, or a monster?"

"You rookie, what are you going to do?"

"Your Majesty, are you asking about these rooms? Because of the special physique of the Wincotts, they must be cremated after death, and there was no time to bury the ashes when they were wandering, so the preservation of the ashes was gradually accepted, and finally became a standard. The rooms are dedicated to storing the ashes of deceased leaders and important ministers; the rooms without house numbers are mainly used to store the most important treasures of Vinkotilan. The upper floor has a similar structure, but it is mainly used as a living room."

I said it in a low voice, but I didn't expect Liya to hear it.

At the end of the corridor, it leads to a circular room with a high dome hidden in the darkness above.On the crystal table in the center of the room, there is a copper mirror reclining on a metal shelf. The water-polished mirror surface reflects the changing colors in the room. Several blue gemstones as pure as the ocean are evenly inlaid in the surrounding hollow patterns. middle.On the base of the bronze mirror, there are clearly engraved elf characters glowing with water blue light——

The fantasy world of water spirits.
