Age of Arcane

Chapter 330 The Sixth Artifact
Luke waved the others out of the car.After all the carriage doors at both ends were closed, he said, "How credible do you think this news is?"

Agatha fell into deep thought with a solemn expression.

Emperor Augustine asked Empress Christina to assist in handling government affairs, and there was a clue before they left the imperial capital to go to the west.It's just that the queen was only reading memorials and documents for the emperor at that time, and had no power to give instructions.

But how could there be such a major change in the palace in just one month?
Agatha expressed her analysis to Luke: "Queen Christina is from the Kingdom of Lusien, and she is a very traditional royal princess. She married my father and the queen is very low-key in the palace. She has no other hobbies except reading. , and even rarely leave the bedroom.

The queen has no foundation in the court, and the Kingdom of Lusien will not have any support in the court.

I guess the father asked the queen to handle government affairs on his behalf because of health reasons, so that there is no need to fear that the power will not be taken back.If her father really passed away, she would not dare nor have the ability to keep the mourning secret.

Those who spread such rumors are damned! "

Luke didn't agree with Agatha's judgment in his heart.

It's not that Queen Christina has no foundation in the empire. Although she can only control the palace, she can still do things like keep secrets.

"This is your family business!" Luke didn't know what happened in the palace, he first took himself out of the incident: "After I arrived in the imperial capital and finished my work report, I must return to Raging City as soon as possible. There are too many things."

Agatha understood Luke's reluctance to dip into this muddy water.

"If it wasn't for the fact that the eldest princess's identity cannot be changed, I don't want to face that bunch of bad things. I really don't know what those people think. We are doing our best to maintain the stability of the empire and prevent foreign invasion, and they... Only the throne can be seen."

Speaking of anger, Agatha slammed her fist heavily on the table, causing a dent in the metal table top.

Luke didn't know how to comfort him.

The palace of the Golden Shield Empire has completely changed. Without a strategy, he doesn't know what's going on inside the palace.

Is Augustine the Great alive or dead?

How far has Empress Christina gained control of the palace and what's next for her?
What role does the eldest prince Fania play in it?Will he lead his troops to attack the palace?
And how will the second prince Alec react when he hears the news?Will he lead the newly reorganized Western Territory Legion to march towards the imperial capital?

Luke can imagine what kind of scene Agatha will face when he arrives in the imperial capital, but at this time... the invasion of Art County United is imminent!
Luke suddenly had an urge to tell Agatha: I will accompany you to face it.

He knew that Agatha was also waiting for his promise to her.

But two people can't both fall into it.

"Let's continue the previous division of labor. You are in the imperial capital to investigate the current situation of His Majesty, to stabilize all parties so that the situation does not escalate, and to investigate the source of the rumors.

Give me the East China Sea and the Northern Territory. "

Agatha looked at Luke.

She really wanted him to accompany her to investigate this matter clearly, but reason told her that what Meteor said was right.

If the court struggles are not handled well, the operation of the entire empire will stagnate.If external pressure is not dealt with, the country will perish.

In such a situation, someone must stand up to take on the heavy responsibility that others cannot bear, and turn the tide in a crisis.

Agatha said to Luke: "Leave the stabilizing court and investigation to me. You have been planning for the Kingdom of Leo in the eastern sea area for a long time, so I am relieved. But the northern border is facing the very powerful Attorney County Alliance, and the strength of the Northern Legion has been severely weakened, and most of them are controlled by Fania."

"Then I'll go and talk to the First Prince. After all, it won't do him any good if he is beaten by the Yate County United from the north."

"I can only do this..." Agatha turned her head to look outside the carriage, leaving the oasis covered with gravel, she said faintly, "May God bless the empire!"

Luke picked up the newspaper and read it.

The train rattled east along the tracks.

In the western region, the grasslands of the ancestors, and the Moonlight Royal Court.

Moon Lake, which is already surrounded by lush craters, is as calm as a mirror.The world tree in the middle of Moon Lake has grown to a height of a thousand meters, and the huge canopy covers the entire lake below.

Under the World Tree, Qing Kong sat cross-legged on the lake, closing his eyes and entering deep meditation.Dots of green light slowly rotated around her body, sometimes drilling into her body, and then drilling out again.

At this moment, Qingkong has entered a state that she has never experienced before, examining herself and the world from a special perspective, as if everything exists in a certain law and connection.

Qingkong, who had learned the ancient Shuojin language, soon realized what he was encountering.

Mystical energy is everywhere, and it can be imperceptibly weak, or powerful enough to destroy the world.

The words of the secret technique are a way to stimulate the mysterious energy, and the known words of the secret technique, even if the secret words recorded in Luke's mobile phone database are added, the mysterious energy that can be used is only an extremely small part of the mysterious energy that exists .

The reason why ancient civilizations are powerful is that they have mastered the extremely convenient method of using the words of secret arts, with sound, graphics and cognition to directly mobilize mysterious energy for their own use.

Ancient characters are the analysis and application of secret arts.

This means that the secret arts are not irregular according to the current general consensus, but belong to the empirical science.It actually has its own set of logic that can be learned, utilized, and created.

It's just that in the ancient wars, the artifacts of the five civilizations were lost, which made it more difficult to inherit ancient texts.Not to mention the creation of the five ancient civilizations, after thousands of years of loss, there are not many ancient characters that have been handed down.

Now Qingkong can be very sure that what he has realized from meditation now is the underlying logic of mysterious energy.It's just that my current knowledge can't see through the rules, and I can't use the ancient Shuojin language to reflect it.

This is World Tree's interpretation of the mysterious energy contained in all things in the world. It is another ancient language system, which is different from the five ancient civilizations.

The clear sky of epiphany thus understood what the so-called artifact is.

The artifact is actually a decoder of mysterious energy. The race that masters the artifact can analyze the mysterious energy through the artifact, so as to sum up the method of systematically using the mysterious energy, so there is an ancient language.

The artifact is also a server, and the ancient civilized race sends instructions through the ancient language, and the artifact activates the secret technique.

The difference between ancient language and magic is: a magician is an independent terminal, and his own strength determines the power level of magic he can release; while ancient language completely relies on the server of the artifact, and the level of mastery of the ancient language determines the release of skills. power.

Therefore, the loss of artifacts caused weak server signals and high delays, which directly caused the rapid decline of ancient civilizations that flourished in an era.

It can be deduced from this... the world tree is the artifact of the grassland of the ancestors.

It’s just that the creatures in the grasslands of the ancient ancestors couldn’t communicate with the World Tree, and they guarded an artifact and didn’t know how to use it. Otherwise, there would be six civilizations instead of five in ancient times.

From this, we can figure out why in ancient times there was a war on the grassland of the ancestors like a paradise, which eventually led to the destruction of the world tree.

No one should get the artifact that you can't get!
Qing Kong opened his eyes, looking at the World Tree that resonated with him.

This thing is more attractive than the book of calamity.

Fortunately, in the game plot, the world tree does not seem to attract too much attention from the five ancient civilizations.I don't know if it's because the ancient civilizations don't know the real function of the World Tree; or they know it, but they dare not openly fight for some reasons.

After all, the World Tree is so big that it cannot be moved away. If it is destroyed during the competition, no one will benefit from it.

This is the only artifact in existence!
Really caused another big trouble.

Clear Sky didn't feel much joy from discovering the secret of World Tree.As the Queen of Moonlight who inherited the power of the previous generation of World Tree, there should be guests coming soon.

"Her Majesty the Queen!"

When the clear sky didn't know whether to be happy or worried, Modesty, who had become the patriarch of the Moonsong tribe again, stepped on Lianyi and walked behind her.

Modesty knelt on one knee, lowered her head and shouted piously.

The clear sky floated up and stood on the water, turned around and said to Modesty: "The recovery of the World Tree is a serious accident for this world. In view of the disasters that have happened, the Moonlight Royal Court must form a team to defend the World Tree as soon as possible." defense force."

Modesty raised her head, the tree core gem hanging on her chest was extremely dazzling.

She said firmly: "Moonlight Knights, Ferocious Warsong, the leaders of the ancestors on the grassland, and all the barbarians in the Western Region will swear to defend our World Tree."

"Just having a desperate heart is not enough. I think the ancestors also made tragic sacrifices to defend the World Tree, but the ending...we all know.

Guardian requires not only determination, but also the strength to defeat all enemies.

The outside world already has relatively mature means of improving individual strength.As a professor of magic and head of the Department of Mysteries at Oulu College, I intend to open a research laboratory for extraordinary warriors, integrating all the technologies and equipment I can use to research and cultivate extraordinary warriors.

I need volunteers to serve as experimenters. "

"I am willing to be a volunteer." Modesty said without any hesitation: "In order not to let the disaster happen again, I can give my life. I only hope that I can be buried in Moon Lake after I die, so that I can become A treant can continue to protect the World Tree."

Clear Sky pulled Modesti up, and said with a smile: "Don't make it so tragic. All experiments will go through repeated demonstrations and animal experiments, and human experiments will only begin when the safety rate is ensured.

You have received the blessing of the World Tree, and you have the tree core gemstone, which has a very strong recovery ability, so you are indeed a suitable candidate for this research and development. "

Modesty's expression became much more relaxed: "Thanks to Your Majesty the Queen for trusting me, it is my honor to contribute to this project."

"Let's go get ready and choose nine moonlight knights to follow me to Saint Lun City."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Modesty bowed to the clear sky, then stepped on the ripples and walked towards the shore.

Clear Sky turned around and looked up at the World Tree.

"You are very cunning...you chose the easiest responsibility!"

After clearing up the affairs of the Moonlight Royal Court, Qingkong took Jenny, the Sheriff and ten Moonlight Knights and set off back to Saint Lun City.Among the ten moonlight knights were the familiar Modesty and the half-orc Kyle Hain.

Imperial Saint Lun City.

Luke and Agatha finally arrived at St. Lun's Railway Station after a long journey.They were greeted grandly by the welcome team on the platform, and then boarded a carriage to the palace.

An emergency imperial cabinet meeting was held, but the emperor of the empire did not attend the meeting, and the emperor Christina sat in his place.

At this time, Empress Christina had faintly revealed some of the majesty of a king, and her sharp eyes swept over the ministers at the conference table.

The door of the meeting room was closed, the palace guards were in place, and the defensive cover was opened.

"First of all, let us welcome the return of Princess Agatha and Viscount Meteorite. They returned from the Western Region with a full load and brought a great victory.

Let the empire not need to worry about the western border in the short term, save countless wealth for the empire, and save countless young people from being buried in the yellow sand. "

applause……

Some people took very hard shots, while others just took two perfunctory shots.

When the applause stopped, Queen Christina said to Luke who was sitting below Agatha: "Your Majesty is very, very happy after reading the letter of loyalty sent by the nobles of the Western Region, and he has recovered a lot physically and mentally. What he did to you in the Western Region Appreciate your contribution and decide to give you the reward you deserve.

It's just that some of the information is not detailed enough. Your Majesty would like to know what you did in the western region to allow the nobles of the western region to make such a big decision. "

However, before Luke could answer, the eldest prince Fania, who was sitting on the other side of the conference table, said in a bad tone: "Mother...you just said that Father's body and spirit have recovered a lot, why did you say that Father's His body is not feeling well, even his favorite eldest son and eldest grandson are missing?"

Queen Christina looked at Fania, and replied slowly but with a sense of oppression: "I am just relaying your majesty's will, and it's not up to me when your majesty feels comfortable. If you think I'm lying, eldest prince, You can break into His Majesty's bedroom to seek evidence."

Fania said aggressively, "Do you think I dare not? It was Milcombe who dragged me!"

Christina said: "Fania...His Majesty's body needs to rest, that's why he said he couldn't see you. What do you want to prove by insisting on seeing His Majesty?"

Fania stared at Christina and said: "I am the son of the emperor, and I am the eldest prince of the empire. I have the right to know the true physical condition of the emperor, and I am obliged to serve his daily life.

Instead it's you...

Why did the father suddenly announce that you will manage the state affairs on your behalf?Why can't I see anyone but you?

Not even his son, grandson, and even his favorite Princess Dai!

I need you to explain to everyone here immediately! "
