Chapter 172 Kant's Guests

The story Pitman told intrigued Gawain, and at the same time gave him a plethora of irrepressible associations.

Many people will regard wild stories as absurd stories that are not worth mentioning, but at the same time, many people are willing to admit that no matter how absurd and uninhibited wild stories are, there are always some reflections derived from reality.

And among those elves who have long lifespans and have far more detailed and coherent historical records than humans, Gawain is more convinced that their legends have facts to follow - especially those about the ark floating and speeding on the sea, and the eternal night. In terms of the sea area and the giant tower reaching the sky, these things beyond the knowledge of mortals on the Loren continent were actually described in such detail and so conclusive in the legend of the silver elves, which made Gawain have to think about it.

Outside of this Loren continent, there really are other continents?

Before the civilization on this continent developed, did civilizations appear on other continents?

The "primordial elves" escaped their homeland in an ark that floated and galloped above the sea. What is the body of the ark? From the description...is it something like a ground-effect vehicle? Or a large hovercraft?

What about the sea forever shrouded in darkness? Is it in the polar night range? Do polar days and polar nights also exist at the north and south poles of this planet?

And what is the giant tower in the legend? It is obviously not some kind of natural product, but more like man-made. There are also projections of the starry sky and image data of animals, plants and minerals in the tower... Is it related to the ancient super civilization that left monitoring satellites? !

If the secret voyage that Gawain Cecil conducted back then really found the Eternal Dark Sea and the giant tower, then those crystals were what the other party brought out of the giant tower?

Countless pieces of information seemed to be concatenated at this moment, and the cause and effect of the matter seemed to reveal some eyebrows, but when Gawain carefully explored and analyzed, he found that there was still no result in the analysis.

The information is too messy and fragmented, and there are many vague legends, strange stories, and speculations in the middle.

There are too many uncertain things, and it is not enough for him to completely piece together the truth of the year!

At this moment, Gawain even had an irresistible urge to build a big ship and go directly to the northern border of the kingdom to explore the sea, to find the urge to find the place that will always be shrouded in the darkness of night (it may also be in a long period of time at a certain time). time), go and see what the legendary giant tower is!

This impulse stirred in his chest, and he had to take a deep breath, silently thinking about the territory's current resource reserves, technological base, industrial production capacity, and the gold and silver left in the treasure house in the mountains, and went through these things one by one. After that, his urge disappeared completely, and his heart was cold...

"Ancestor, are you alright?" Heidi looked at Gawain with concern, the emotional change on the latter's face made her worry about the possibility of her ancestor passing away again (and depending on the situation, this death is not very peaceful) , but fortunately Gao Wen recovered in time and waved at her: "Don't worry, it's fine."

"Are you interested in the Eternal Dark Sea?" said Pittman next to him, and then frowned, "But with all due respect, even in the mighty Silver Empire, the Eternal Dark Sea is just a story, as we all know, Storms, fogs and chaotic magic fields block the entire ocean. Even with the technical power of elves, it is impossible to navigate in the seas far from the coastline, and it is even more impossible for human countries after the decline of technology. When the church had not fallen, the priests of the storm could still guide the captains to navigate some specific routes around the continent, but now the church of the god of the storm has fallen into the children of the storm, and no one can sail on the ocean anymore... "

It was rare that this little old man could persuade himself with such a serious attitude. Gawain was still quite moved, but he couldn't help but ask: "It has been seven hundred years, and all countries are still trapped on the mainland, unable to travel there. Far to the sea?"

"Occasionally there are daring explorers who go to challenge the ocean, but less than one-third of them come back alive, and even if they come back, most of them are crazy, confused by the chaotic magical environment in the far sea," Hetty shook his head, "and challenging What is the use of the sea? Wealth all comes from the land, no matter minerals or crops can only be obtained on land, there is no need to challenge the sea. At present, the only one on the mainland that has developed the sea is the Typhon Empire, but they also It's just that I found some magic materials near the sea..."

Gao Wen couldn't help but frowned and glanced at Heidi: "Do you really think there is no wealth in the ocean?"

"Wealth in the ocean?" Hetty was stunned. "Man is a creature that lives on land. What kind of wealth can be useful to us in the ocean?"

Gawain looked at Hetty and wanted to give an impassioned inspiration and education, but soon he found that these lectures were of no use to Hetty, who had limited knowledge and vision, so he could only sigh in the end: One day you will understand that this continent is too narrow for enlightened human beings - if nothing else, there is no place to hide when there is a magic tide."

There's a magic wave... there's nowhere to hide...

This sentence immediately touched Hetty, but just as she was about to ask something else, Gawain had already mentioned another thing: "Leave this aside, Hetty, I want you to help me collect some scrolls. material."

"Is it still the basic spell and spell-casting theory information of each faction?" Hetty asked subconsciously, this information was the one that Gawain asked her to collect most often.

But Gawain's answer surprised her: "No, it's about my biography."

"About your... biography?" Hetty blinked in confusion, this request is really weird, probably only the old ancestor who suddenly jumped up when he was dead could make it, " Which form are you referring to? The official biography of the heroes released by the kingdom?"

"Not only that, but also various folk versions, I want anything that describes my life," Gawain really couldn't explain to the other party that he was looking for that time that obviously happened, but disappeared in Gawain The clues of the secret voyage in Cecil's memory can only make this kind of general request, "Even if it is unofficial history, or even absurd stories of country people scaring children."

Heidi's expression became strange: "What do you want these things for?"

Just as Gao Wen wanted to make up a reason, for example, he was interested in the changes in people's thinking in the past seven hundred years, an amber suddenly popped out of the shadow next to him, and the amber was still there: "He's free, I want to see this In the past seven hundred years, which treacherous person wants to black him... or just see how everyone praises him, and feel good about himself..."

The moment Amber jumped out of the shadows, Hetty had already picked up her staff and made a smooth start, but Miss Half-elf has also improved her memory since she was beaten last time. , the moment he finished the blind bbw, he ran behind Gawain, used the latter as a bunker in front of him, and stuck out half of his head provocatively: "rua - I don't believe you dare to face your ancestors... pain!!"

Before she could finish the second half of her sentence, she was dragged out by Gao Wen's ear, and while she was dragging her, Gao Wen was very curious: "What do you think, after arranging others, you still hide behind the party to find safety, Could it be that I won't hit you?"

"Oh, I was wrong, wrong, wrong!" Amber almost jumped, "My ears are going to cramp, my ears are going to cramp!"

So the tent was filled with a cheerful air...

A few days after the messenger was dispatched, a reply from Viscount Victor Kant was delivered to the Cecil family's domain.

The old viscount expressed great enthusiasm for Duke Gawain's visit, and kindly invited Gawain to visit the ancient castle and manor that the Kant family was proud of. Therefore, on the second day after the courier returned, he had already prepared Gawain, who was ready, embarked on a journey to Kant's Land.

He set off in a carriage, and deliberately did not bring many entourage. Apart from the groom and two soldiers, he only brought Amber, who served as a personal escort, and Knight Philip, who had just escorted the refugees back to the territory.

When the silhouettes of villages, towns and farms on the edge of Kant's Territory appeared at the end of the road, the sky gradually became gloomy, and the cold wind swept the earth with the breath of moisture and soil. At the end of this frosty moon and just before the foggy moon, this land will usher in a generous rainfall.

After this rain, the short autumn of the Anzu Kingdom came to an end, and then came the long winter of the northern kingdom, the first was a foggy and cold foggy moon that lasted for sixty days, and then the sixty-day long winter. In the cold month of the sky, the nationwide snowfall will continue intermittently until the month of recovery, and even the "southern border" where Cecil's territory is located will be covered with frost and snow.

After all, the entire Ansu Kingdom is in the north of the mainland.

I don’t know if the refugees in the wilderness will arrive in Cecil territory in time to receive shelter before the coldest days. I don’t know if the winter construction plan on the territory can be realized as expected. I don’t know if the border between Ansu and Typhon will be. Go to war this winter...

Gawain opened the cover on the side of the carriage. In the gradually gloomy and darkening sky, he could already see Castle Kant standing on a hillside in front of him. The ancient stone building rose from the highest point on the territory. Rising from the ground, several dark towers pointed directly at the cloudy sky, and on the vast land below the castle, there were row upon row of town buildings.

Now that night and clouds are approaching at the same time, the early darkening of the sky makes the towns gradually light up with sparse lights. Gawain counted the number and distribution of those lights, judging the wealth and order of the land.

The lights are more than imagined and can be seen from all over town.

A drop of rain slanted through the baffle of the carriage shed and landed on Gawain's face. Along with the raindrops, there was also a bleak cold wind. Amber wrapped the blanket around him in a corner of the carriage, dazed. He muttered: "Gao Wen, close the window..."

Gawain smiled, put down the baffle, and the sound of rain gradually sounded on the roof of the car hood made of waterproof wood.

The carriage galloped past the fertile and harvested farmland in the Kant Territory. In the direction from which the carriage came, the road leading outside the territory was gradually obscured by rain curtains, becoming blurred and unrecognizable...
