Chapter 288 The Closest Person

Franzel's mansion, top floor office.

"I'm home?"

Yuli, who was sitting here doing her work as always, saw Li Ge walking in the door, immediately put down the work at hand, and gave him a smile that had become a habit for a long time.

"Well, I'm back."

Rige sat down in front of Yuli, followed closely by Liz. After seeing Marilyn bending down to salute Rige who entered the door, she immediately followed suit and saluted to Yuli.

Yuli nodded to Liz, and then looked at Li Ge.

"Looking at your expression, it seems like you got a good harvest." Yuli said with a little curiosity: "What did you choose? Show me!"

Obviously, Yuri also wanted to know what Li Ge brought out from that veritable treasure house.

"Here, this is it."

Li Ge did not refuse and directly took off the emerald pendant from his neck and placed it in front of Yuli.

Unexpectedly, when she saw the emerald pendant, Yuli showed an expression full of astonishment.

"You, you actually brought this thing out?"

At first, Yuli didn't seem to recognize the God of Meloai. It should be because the gemstone on the pendant was originally transparent, but now it has turned into emerald green.

When she recognized the emerald pendant as the Goddess Melo Ai, Yuli showed a look of astonishment.

"Oh?" Li Ge smiled and said, "It seems you know this ancient secret treasure."

"...Because its existence is not a secret." Yuli was speechless for a long time, and then smiled bitterly and said: "The effect is too powerful, and there are harsh usage conditions that even strategic magicians cannot complete the magic filling. , which has led to this ancient secret treasure becoming a relatively famous rumor in the upper-class magician circle. "

This is nothing to be surprised about.

With the powerful effects of Melo Ai God, countless people must have been jealous of it in the past four hundred years.

Especially magicians. Most of the magicians who can enter the kingdom's treasure house are strategic magicians. You can fully imagine how regretful they will feel after trying to fill the magic power for God Meloai to no avail.

As long as any of them couldn't help but mention this ancient secret treasure while feeling regretful, then with the status of a strategic magician, even they could not help praising this treasure, this kind of thing would surely spread quickly. Over time, it naturally became a famous rumor.

"I also saw this ancient secret treasure when I entered the treasure house before, and tried to fill it with magic power. As a result, I only completed less than 70% of the magic power filling and could not continue."

When Yuli mentioned this matter, she asked Li Ge in surprise.

"Looking at its current state, it should be filled with magic power and ready for use. Did you do this? How did you do it?"

Yuli was actually a little surprised and curious about this.

Even he could only fill less than 70% of the magic power, but Li Ge could fill it up to 100%. Could it be that his magic power was so much more than hers?

impossible?

In terms of magic power, Yuli is still very confident in herself.

At least, from birth to now, Yuri has never seen anyone with magic power above her, including strategic magicians of the same level.

It’s not like Yuri has never seen another strategic magician in the Kingdom of Jinas.

And she can be sure that the opponent's magic power should be inferior to her own, which proves that her own magic power should be one of the best even among strategic magicians.

Even if she searches the entire continent, she will be hard-pressed to find someone with a stronger magic than her, let alone someone with so much more power.

Li Ge's magic power is still much inferior to her own. This is something Yuri discovered through daily observation.

In this case, how did Li Ge manage to fill the God of Meloai with magical power?

Yuri couldn't understand.

"It's actually very simple." Seeing Yuli's puzzled face, Li Ge immediately smiled and said, "Because I have a second source of magic power."

The second source of magic?

What does it mean?

"There are really more and more secrets in you."

Yuli said this angrily, as if she was convinced.

"……yes."

Li Ge did not deny this. Thinking of the transparent Rubik's Cube in his mind, thinking of the animal skin picture, and then thinking of God Melo, he narrowed his eyes and muttered as if talking to himself.

"Even I don't know what secrets are hidden in me."

Of course Yuli couldn't understand this.

But seeing Li Ge's lost look, Yuli said something strangely.

"No matter what secrets you have, as long as I know that you are the person closest to me, I don't care about the rest."

This sentence was blurted out by Yuli.

"…………"

The whole office suddenly fell silent.

Li Ge came back to his senses and looked at Yuli's expression, which looked very strange.

Marilyn also looked at Yuli in astonishment, as if she had seen a ghost.

Liz covered her mouth, as if she had seen an incredible scene.

Only then did Yuri realize what she had just said.

At that moment, Yuli's pretty face turned red, and for the first time, she felt a strong sense of shame in her heart.

"No, it's not..."

In a state of overwhelming shame, Yuli stuttered in a rare way.

Seeing the normally heroic Marquis Franzel, who was blushing like a pregnant girl, Li Ge suddenly smiled.

"You are also the person closest to me in this world."

Li Ge said this with a calm smile.

"Y-really?"

Yuli felt that her face was extremely hot, her heartbeat was speeding up rapidly, and she no longer looked like herself.

Subconsciously, Yuli quickly fanned her face with her hands to cool down and changed the topic.

"By the way, I have some clues about what you asked me to investigate before."

Yuli's words made the smile on Lige's face disappear.

He knew what Yuli was referring to.

"A hidden place?"

Before, Li Ge asked Yuli to check this place.

"well?"

Liz next to her was stunned for a moment when she heard Li Ge mention the hidden place.

At this moment, Li Ge remembered that he had not told Liz about this matter yet.

So, Li Ge turned to Liz.

"Sorry, I told Yuli about the Hermitage and asked her to investigate."

Li Ge explained what happened to Liz.

"That's it."

Liz nodded in relief. Although she was confused as to why Li Ge wanted to investigate the hidden place, the topic was not irrelevant to her.

Liz was also a little concerned about what the so-called hidden place was.

This made the little princess look at Yuli eagerly, looking nervous and uneasy.

Regrettably……

"Don't look at me like that, you may be disappointed."

Yuli's face was finally not so red, and the shyness in her heart was gradually relieved by the diversion of the topic, making her sigh in relief.

"I sent people to check a lot of information, checked a lot of intelligence, and even borrowed the palace's library as the chief court magician. I searched a lot of maps and ancient books, but I still couldn't find the term "Hidden Place". Related things. "

"So, I don't know where the hidden place you talk about is."

"Even the name has never appeared. I doubt whether this place exists anymore."

The unexpected remarks made both Derig and Liz startled.

"Can't you even find the name?"

Li Ge frowned, and Liz began to have self-doubt, wondering whether this so-called hidden place existed.

It was a place that Liz had only heard about once from her mother-in-law who had taken care of her. She had heard it many years ago. Liz was naturally unsure whether it existed or not.

If Li Ge hadn't asked Liz to recall it last time, she wouldn't have been able to remember it herself.

Maybe that really is a place that doesn't exist?

Grandma Mia just said it casually. In fact, there is no such place at all, right?

Liz had such suspicions.

Only Li Ge, after frowning, asked Yuli again.

"Then you just said you have some eyebrows. What are they specifically?"

To this question, Yuli gave this answer.

"Didn't you ask me to investigate Liz's sword of Moslow?" Yuli said: "I didn't investigate that hidden place, but that sword of Moslow, I Bian really found out something.”

With that said, Yuri handed a piece of parchment to Li Ge.

There were no words on the parchment, just a picture.

This painting is very similar to the paintings on animal skins that Li Ge has seen. The main lines depicting human figures can clearly be seen as a style.

The content on the painting is somewhat intriguing.

It was a scene of man and beast confronting each other on the battlefield.

The human-shaped linear figures are holding weapons and are fully armed, occupying one side of each other with a dense group of beast-shaped creatures.

The humanoids looked like they were preparing to charge in a group.

The beast form roars and roars at the camp where the human form is located.

At a glance, both sides knew they were preparing to fight.

The intriguing part is that behind the beast-shaped legion, there is a huge mysterious black shadow, I don’t know what it is, and behind the human-shaped legion there is a queen, holding a golden sword in her hand.

"This, this is Mosro!"

Liz couldn't help but stepped forward, saw the sword in the queen's hand in the painting, and immediately made a confirmation.

Li Ge also nodded.

Like the animal skin picture he got, this picture also has a queen who leads all the people. The queen holds a golden sword in her hand.

That sword, both in terms of outline and appearance, was exactly the same as Liz's Sword of Mosro.

"Where did this come from?"

Li Ge raised his eyes and looked at Yuli.

Yuri said so.

"This is a rubbing of a mural found in an ancient ruins."
