529 Agreement
Reginald of Red Crow Castle led the team to leave, which relieved the crisis in China Village, but Raymond, who was confused in his heart, invited the old Hewlett to his room.
"Could it be that such a team has caused such trauma to the porcelain village?" Raymond questioned bluntly without giving old Hewlett time to consider his words. "Even if Reginald has the strength of a first-level wizard, there shouldn't be such a large number of casualties in the porcelain village!"
"Respected Lord Raymond, Reginald is Lord Viala's apprentice in Red Crow Castle, and his talent is also the root cause of the tragedy," said the old Hewlett, who was somewhat hunched over, with despair in his eyes. and deep fear. "Within the range of his weakened force field, it's useless for us to fight against his subordinates in this situation..."
Recalling the old Hewlett who had suffered a terrible loss before, he showed Lei Meng the scene that happened in the porcelain village two weeks ago, which also made Lei Meng understand Reginald's ability.
Weakening the force field is not a very strong talent when the strengths of the two sides are equal, but Reginald, who has monsters and other monsters, has made the porcelain village lose its ability to fight.
In the entire porcelain village, three porcelain figures who were as powerful as great knights were knocked into pieces of porcelain on the spot under the suppression of Reginald's talent force field, which led to the loss of fighting spirit of the porcelain village and the occurrence of tragedies.
If it weren't for the old Hewlett to hand over the method of extracting the bitter water, the remaining one hundred porcelain men would also be killed.
Speaking of this, old Hewlett, who became agitated in vain, turned livid. "They calculated this time to come and force them, because we can't migrate before the elemental tidal storm comes. This is the sorrow of being a porcelain man, and it is also a shackle on our race!"
"Elemental tidal storm?" Raymond's face was a little ugly after repeating the name mentioned by the old Hewlett. "Could it be that there will be an elemental tidal storm in two years' time?"
"Respected Lord Raymond. You must not be a resident of this world," he sighed, and old Hewlett's cloudy eyes flashed a glimmer of light. "As long as you protect our porcelain village until the elemental tidal storm is over, the porcelain village will give you a great gift, a gift that will definitely satisfy you!"
The old Hewlett's words made Raymond's eyes sharpen, and the faint energy breath was also gathered by Raymond.
But the old Hewlett, who revealed his origin, turned his gaze to the window of the room, looking very leisurely. "Don't be so nervous, even if you are a wizard from the chaotic world, the porcelain people will only be grateful to you."
Staring at old Hewlett's wrinkled neck. Raymond, with red dots flashing in his pupils, realized through the detection of the chip that the porcelain old man was not on any guard. After a while, he lifted his guard and sent out a question. "why?"
"Although I don't know the name of our world in other planes, everyone knows the elemental tidal storm that occurs every fifty years," staring at the setting sun that was about to set outside the window. Old Hewlett's mouth curled up. "And you don't even know the common language of the mainland, but you can use the ancient Torris language so proficiently. So you must be a wizard from another plane."
Still a reasonable guess. But it embarrasses Raymond, who always thought he was covering up well. "Can't I be a wizard who has lived in seclusion for a long time?"
"This is the Corner of Despair. Except for Viala of Red Crow Castle, no wizard above level two has appeared for a long time," Old Hewlett turned his head, his eyes gleaming with wisdom, as if he could see everything. "Lord Raymond, please come with me!"
Old Hewlett got up slowly. He still looked like he was going to die, but Lei Meng, who followed behind him to the small building opposite, was shocked in his heart.
When facing Reginald of Red Crow Castle before, his physical fitness far exceeded the level of a human grand knight. But during the moment of talking to him, his physical data dropped by several levels, only a little stronger than the average knight!
Confused and puzzled, when Raymond came to Old Hewlett's small building again, the porcelain people who lived here were cleaning the room carefully, and when they saw Raymond, they all bowed to him, Look respectful.
Passing through the living room and turning the back-shaped corridor, the old Hewlett finally brought Raymond to the storage room, and ordered the porcelain man guarding the room to open the passage into the basement.
"This place is already being cleaned up, and the whole small building can be released to you tomorrow," the old Hewlett, who was a little emotional but did not explain the reason, continued after walking into the passage. "The people from Red Crow Castle will not come again for a short time, so this place can be vacated for you, please don't be offended."
Passing through the passage behind the closet, spiral stairs extended downward, but as old Hewlett entered Raymond in the basement, he soon felt something strange.
Raymond, who had explored this basement before, in his memory, the depth of this basement was only more than ten meters, and the space inside was not very large.
However, the old Hewlett, who was leading the way with a torch, led Raymond into the basement, but lifted the floor in the corner of the room and continued to lead Raymond down.
After going a full 100 meters underground, Raymond, who followed Old Hewlett, saw the real bottom through the gap in the stairs.
In front of the spiral staircase at the bottom is a very short passage that is not too spacious, but the breath blowing from the open door made Lei Meng, who had not stepped down the staircase, a little dazed.
Seeing the bitter old Hewlett on his face, he pointed to the room at the end of the passage with some emotion and introduced it. "This is a secret in the porcelain village, but it will be abandoned after two years anyway, so you can regard this as the safest place."
Facing the real energy breath in the passage in horror, Lei Meng, who also heard the warning sound of the chip echoed in his ears, couldn't believe it all.
He didn't notice any force field covering his breath, but the energy concentration in that channel had reached an unbelievable level, and it was only when Raymond entered the bottom of the spiral staircase that he suddenly noticed this kind of force field. situation.
"It's a small room, but there should be a lot of energy gathered in it for hundreds of years." With regret in his eyes, the old Hewlett was depressed as if he was explaining the funeral. "Before the arrival of the elemental tidal storm, here and this small building are for your use."
Old Hewlett walked through the passage and walked into the inner room while talking, and Raymond, who entered behind him, couldn't help asking questions. "What the hell is this place, and why is there such a room?"
The concentration of energy particles is extremely high, and energy particles of various attributes appear to be dense in the room, which affects the sight.
"This village has existed for almost a thousand years," said old Hewlett, who did not directly answer Raymond's question, but muttered to himself. "It's a pity that no porcelain man who can absorb these energies was born, so your arrival is just in time..."
The eloquent old Hewlett quickly made Raymond understand the reason for the existence of this room and the significance of the elemental tidal storm to the porcelain race.
A porcelain man born in an elemental tidal storm, in which a special individual will appear, a porcelain man born with the potential of a wizard.
In order to grow these individuals who can lead the porcelain race to be strong, the porcelain race has created some conditions so that such individuals in the ethnic group can grow up quickly after birth and undertake their obligations to the ethnic group.
The facility similar to the talisman array was inherited and mastered by the elders of the porcelain people. They built such an underground secret room near the settlement, waiting for the birth of the clansman with wizard potential.
The porcelain village where the old Hewlett lived had to find a new settlement after two years, because such a special individual would not be born if he continued to stay here.
"Two years!" Old Hewlett raised two fingers at Raymond with an extremely solemn expression. "You only need to protect the village for another two years, and what you get will be far beyond imagination..." (To be continued...)
