Chapter 253

He no longer looked like he was awake just now.

"The Emperor's Wine actually doesn't taste good at all. It's not something worth dedicating one's life to searching for."

"Sounds like a story I haven't heard before."

Sitting behind Fulilian, Ai smiled slightly and said, "Do you mind telling me?"

"...You still like collecting stories so much."

Fulilian's eyes were unwavering, "It's not a story that needs to be kept secret. It seems quite boring to me."

Although she said this, Fulian did not start telling the story immediately. Instead, she asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the story.

"Ai, why do you think I went on a journey to collect magic?"

"Because someone will praise your magic and smile because of your magic...Isn't that what you said?"

"I did say that...but that was only part of the reason, or that was the reason I found out after meeting Simmel and the others."

Fulilian's gaze shifted, her eyelids drooped slightly, her voice paused, and the look on her face seemed to be reminiscing about something.

"Most elves will set a goal for themselves and immerse themselves in exploring something."

"Because if you don't...this life will be too long."

Remember, that was a conversation that took place a thousand years ago...

On a cliff full of flowers, Fulian asked her master Volamei a question.

"Why does Master like to research and create new magic so much?"

At that time, Volamei's answer was...

"There are many reasons, such as simple preference, wanting to help humans fight against demons, wanting to satisfy the master... In addition to these, there is actually another important reason."

"I want to leave a lot of magic in this world, so much that you, Fulian, can't even spend your whole life studying it... In this way, you won't be bored by staying alone in this world."

…

The memory lasted only a moment, and Fulian, who came back to her senses, continued her story.

"Emperor's wine is actually the wine that the emperor of the empire distributed to the people when he came to the throne. Its biggest feature is that it is very, very cheap, and it is also very unpleasant to drink."

"Millie Alder, she spent a lot of energy and time, but in the end she found that the thing she had been looking for for a long time was actually worthless garbage. She lost her goal and was in a daze all day long. Once she wanted to To kill time, I carved an inscription praising the emperor’s wine on a stone tablet.”

Apparently, that inscription was the one that Faas had found.

Ash understood why Frilian was so reluctant to open the door, because she didn't want to see Fasi become like that Millialde.

but……

"Even if you just walked away before, it wouldn't change anything."

Ai said in a deep voice: "As long as Fasi is willing to pay, he can hire other magicians to help him open the seal. At most, it will take a little more time than us, and Fasi can definitely afford to wait."

"I know, that's why I agreed later."

Chapter 451 Emperor’s Wine and Divine Wine.

Today is a very important day.

Faas has worked hard for more than two hundred years for this day.

"I have finally waited for this day."

When he said this, Fasi's tone was unusually calm.

No tears of joy, no nervousness and fear.

Because of his thick beard, it was impossible to see clearly the expression on his face at this moment.

Only those eyes, with a faint divine light in the turbidity, stared at the door, never looking away for a moment.

After less than a month of research, Fulilian and Ash unlocked the seal on the door.

Then, the mechanism started to operate, and the stone door slowly opened under the gaze of everyone.

The space behind the door is not large, but there is a lot of wine.

Faz walked in first and eagerly took out a bottle of wine.

"This is the real emperor's wine... I never thought that I would actually have the opportunity to drink it in this life."

Looking at the back of the emotional Fasi, Fearon's eyes changed slightly.

It seems that Fulian also told Faylan the truth about the Emperor's Wine.

"To celebrate! You guys have some drinks too."

Overjoyed, Faas directly gave everyone present a bottle of Emperor's wine.

However, when it was offered to Qie, he was rejected.

"I'm sorry, I can't stand the taste of wine, so you don't have to give it to me."

"Really? That's a pity. It's hard to imagine what life is like without drinking..."

Although Fasi is a heavy drinker, he can understand Ash.

Besides, Fasi can now drink the emperor's wine, and the person in front of him is a great contributor.

Seeing Fasi opening the bottle and preparing to take the first sip, Fearon opened his mouth, but said nothing and watched in silence as Fasi drank the drink.

Then……

“Delicious!”

Fearon was stunned.

There was no obvious change in the expression on Fulilian's face, while Ash showed a faint smile.

It wasn't until he drank all the wine in the bottle that there wasn't even a drop left. Then Fasi put down the empty bottle with unsatisfied content. His eyes with bags under his eyes were no longer cloudy and started to sparkle.

"Is this the Emperor's wine? Damn it, I haven't had such a delicious wine in my life for more than two hundred years. Isn't this really a wine that only goddesses are qualified to drink? It's much more delicious than the description on the inscription! I feel like I can't drink any other wine after drinking the Emperor's wine!"

I don't know if it's because of the wine, Fas's emotions became excited, and his face flushed.

He looked at the Emperor's wine around him with burning eyes, opened his arms and shouted excitedly.

"Such a delicious wine, how can I be the only one drinking it? More people must drink it!"

So, in order to celebrate Fas's finding the Emperor's wine, all the adults in the village drank the wine and gave sincere praise.

Fulilian lowered her presence, stayed in a corner where no one noticed, and drank a sip of the Emperor's wine in her hand with a calm expression.

"...What a wonderful taste, can wine be so delicious?"

"Lord Fulilian."

Seeing Philen coming over here, Fulilian knew that the other party had questions to ask her.

"Lord Fulilian, what's the matter with this Emperor's wine?"

Fenlun stared at Fulilian's eyes with a confused look, "Didn't you say that Emperor's wine is very, very unpalatable?"

"Of course, it's super unpalatable. To be honest, I can't even drink a sip. It's quite amazing to be so unpalatable."

"Why..."

Fenlun didn't continue, but Fulilian must have understood what he meant.

"Emperor's wine is super unpalatable, this is the truth, so these drinks are not Emperor's wine at all."

"Not Emperor's wine? What is it?"

Although Fulilian answered, there were more doubts in Fulilian's eyes.

However, Fulilian shook her head.

"I don't know the details. If you want to know, go ask Jian... Look, Jian is here."

Fenlun blinked his big purple eyes and looked back to see Jian's figure.

"Lord Jian? Didn't you leave first because you couldn't stand the smell of alcohol?"

"That's right, so I'm really uncomfortable now. The strong smell of alcohol in the air makes me almost vomit..."

Jian didn't look like she was joking. Her face was indeed not very good now, "But I guessed you would have questions to ask me, so I came here."

"Yes, Lord Jian, I..."

"Ah, sorry, wait a moment, I seem to have overestimated my endurance... Wait for me to cast a magic."

Jian summoned his staff and knocked on the ground, and then the smell of alcohol in the air disappeared at a very fast speed.

"Huh——, the air is much fresher."

Jian's face bloomed with a bright smile like a flower, "Magic is really very convenient, especially in this situation."

Ferren was not surprised by this. After all, Fulilian often collected some seemingly useless magic such as "cleaning rust on bronze statues" and "turning red grapes into green grapes".

"Lord Jian, are these drinks related to you?"

"Yes."

Jian nodded and admitted directly, "After spending more than two hundred years, I finally found that the target I was pursuing was just worthless garbage... Such a cruel ending is not what I want to see. After making efforts, you can get the same rewards... No one should dislike such a story development, right?"

"Reality is not like stories. Most of the time it is cruel and painful. After hard work, you may not get rewards, and after endurance, you may not see the sun break through the clouds, so I want to make some changes."

"Flylian and I have actually completed the analysis of the seal a long time ago, but we first replaced the emperor's wine inside, and then imposed a seal on the door that is very similar to the original one... I also know that deception is not good, but I think Fas deserves a better ending."

Jian deceived Fas and replaced the emperor's wine that Fas was looking for with other wines.

No one can guarantee that this misunderstanding will not cause any trouble in the future.

However, if Jian didn't do this... Philen couldn't imagine how much of a blow Fas would suffer the moment he touched the truth.

So, Philen didn't think Jian and Fulilian had done anything wrong.

Holding the bottle of wine, Philen asked another question.

"Then, Lord Jian, where did this wine come from?"

"You ask where it came from..."

Jian showed embarrassment, smacking his lips and scratching his hair, hesitating for a long time.

Not only Philen, but Fulilian was also curious.

Fas said that he had never tasted such delicious wine in his life, and Fulilian was the same. It was the first time she had drunk such delicious wine in a thousand years.

"Legend has it that this is a divine wine brewed by a wine god named Dionysus... That's all I know, so even if you are curious, it's useless."

Fulilian: "Dionysus?"

Philen: "God of wine?"

Both of them showed puzzled expressions, because they had only heard of the goddess of creation, and had never heard of the existence of a second god.

Jian didn't lie completely.

The Savior Sword also contains the divine tools of Dionysus in Greek mythology. These wines are brewed by Ash using the divine tools of Dionysus, which can be said to be real divine wine.

Chapter 452 Morufu.

The axe fell heavily to the ground.

Shutark sat on the ground in an inconspicuous manner, breathing heavily. His clothes soaked with sweat made him look like he had just been fished out of the water.

Beside him, a dozen monsters were slowly dissipating.

"Ah...ah...it's finally over..."

29 years after the death of the brave Simmel, Ai and others are currently located in a forest on the northern plateau.

The strength and number of monsters here are much higher than those outside the northern plateau, so even Ai and others must be vigilant.

Not only Shutarke, but also Philon's condition is not good. Maintaining high-intensity fighting is a very draining thing.

"Such a battle should not happen again in the future. After all, we will reach Morufo further ahead."
