Transcendent Noble

Alchemy Empire has been dead for more than 20,000 years, and her history can be traced back at least 40,000 years ago. In her life spanning more than 10,000 years, the ancient alchemist created a glorious human civilization and left many rich heritages to future generations.

Why is it a legacy, not a relic?

According to the historical data he has collected, Victor is convinced that the ancient Chosen One city-state is a city left over from the Alchemy Empire. These cities have continued to play a role in the history of mankind and have not been forgotten by mankind.

This is of course a legacy, not a lost civilization.

Since Chosen One and the ancient city-state Knight inherited the legacy of Alchemy Empire, Radiance Church and the secular lords overthrew Chosen One and ascended to the throne of the ruler. That is the understanding of the ancient Alchemy Empire from the who-like country Is there a huge gap?

Victor used X-3 repeatedly to deduce and piece together a probability answer.

Alchemy Empire occupies a vast land north of the Jinshui River, and its sphere of influence may be larger than the current human kingdom and the northern wilderness combined. The larger the territory, the weaker the Central Dynasty's control over the place, and it will inevitably form a large and small separatist force. Just like the empire of the Earth world where the sun never sets, even though the telegraph, trains, and ocean-going ships had been invented at that time, the colonies all over the world became independent.

So, the early Alchemy Empire must be a loose alliance of human city-states, each city-state has the conditions for self-sufficiency and strong military power. They do not need to accept a strong regime.

However, there is a difference between Tyrone world and Earth world. There are extraordinary powers here, which determine that the superstructure of civilization is completely different. The transcenders of human city-states have unshakable dominance. Therefore, they are not afraid of being overthrown by the people like the ancient emperors of Earth.

Simply put, the wizards and Knights of the city-states are given the power by nature, and they are all lazy in government affairs and do not care about power. They are obsessed with the study of mysterious power.

The same hobby and research content linked the wizards and Knights of various city-states together, and gradually emerged the embryonic form of the Mage Association.

The Mage Association is composed of genius wizards from various city-states. Their greatest achievement is to turn Golden Knight into an alchemist.

Victor has confirmed that ancient alchemists are all high-level Knights. He defines alchemists as high-level Knights who can embody the void elements as the laws of matter through the alchemy system model.

This has an unimaginable attraction for the high-end Knights of various city-states.

Take Sylvia as an example. Although she is the Spiritual God Knight of aloof and remote, her use of the void element is not separated from the void element itself, and is still in a primordial rough state. If she knew there was a way to use the void elements to create an alchemy creature, she would definitely be ecstatic. Because this represents the transformation of Source Law to the law of reality, which belongs to the authority of the Creator.

The high-ranking Knights of all city-states wanted to become alchemists. They were eager for the Mage Association. When the number of alchemists reached a considerable scale, a new organization was born-the Alchemy Council.

The Mage Association and the Alchemy Council have two sides. They are essentially a joint organization of the Peak Great Wizard and the Great Alchemist. They not only control huge resources, but also monopolize the promotion channels of the wizard and the high-level Knight.

Any organization needs fresh blood, and there must be organizational rules, which will eventually form political power. Alchemy Empire was thus established, but the dominant alchemy council and wizards’ association are still organizations that tend to study mysticism. They don't have an emperor, and they don't care much about secular power.

This determines the early political structure and operation of Alchemy Empire. The city-states provide resources to the alchemy council and the association of wizards in exchange for the city-state wizards and high-level Knights to join the organization and seek new power qualifications, thereby forming a city-state alliance headed by alchemists and wizards.

The Mage Association and the Alchemist Council in the city-states within the alliance regularly select wizards and Knights as their apprentices. The Knight family and wizard towers of the alliance city-states are proud of joining the organization, and even broke the blood for the spot competition.

Because the alliance city-states are scattered all over the place and they are far away from each other, the archmage and the great alchemist who live in the Alchemy Empire ruling layer have only influence on the alliance members, lack of administrative power, and have not built a top-down administration. system. In order to obtain more resources from the Alliance City-states, the Alchemy Council and the Mage Association must limit the number of beckoning apprentices and conservative research results to dangle the appetite of the Alliance City-states, and make the organizational traditions closed rather than open.

This will inevitably cause the division of Alchemy Empire's superiors and subordinates, and there will be two sets of administrative systems-the parliament, the association system, and the city-states themselves.

Alchemy Empire's two non-interference administrative systems are the root cause of the loss of alchemy civilization.

In the middle and late stages of Alchemy Empire, human city-states were completely invaded by unknown alien races. The city-states were retreating steadily. The crisis of demise greatly enhanced the centripetal force of associations and parliaments. Become a great alchemist and an archmage invented Use Void Creation alchemy, mobilize resources to build countless Alchemy Towers, use continuously alchemy creatures to defeat the invaders and drive them back to their nest.

In order to completely eliminate the threat of invaders, the great alchemist and archmage of the empire secretly carried out taboo research and created the ultimate war weapon-Lord of Radiance.

However, please don’t forget that Alchemy Empire’s knowledge of mysticism is most likely from the whisperers, or those who have won the eternal battle in the Far Ancient Spiritual God. The Alchemy Council and the Mage Association created the Lord of Radiance, which angered the Whisperers. The specific reason is unknown to Victor, but various signs indicate that the secret mastermind that caused the sudden failure of Alchemy Tower and the sudden demise of Alchemy Empire are the whisperers.

If the whispers catch all the archmage and the great alchemist without leaving one, Alchemy Empire's research on the Lord of Radiance will be stagnant.

Alchemy Tower has a network for information transmission. Alchemy Tower suddenly failed, and the city-states could not contact members of the council. Then, the alchemist's inheritance was cut off, and the city-state alliance was disintegrated. The disappearance of the alchemist and archmage has become a mystery in the city-states. Thousands of years later, even this puzzle was forgotten, and the city-state was restored to its original state of autonomy.

That's why, today's human kingdom only knows the ancient Chosen One, but does not understand the existence of Alchemy Empire.

The remains of Alchemy Empire are few and far between. Even if they are unearthed, they will be classified as the civilization remains of the ancient Chosen One.

Testil said that this building is a relic of the early civilization of the ancient Chosen One. In a general sense, his view is not wrong. Only Victor knows the special value of this civilization relic, and it has extremely important practical significance for him.

Unfortunately, now is not a good time to explore the ruins and acquire the legacy of Alchemy Empire.

Victor pressed his heart's throbbing, turned his head without showing the slightest abnormality, and exchanged greetings with the scout squad members of the court.

"Ron Master?!"

When the scout squad of the referee saw Ron Paladin behind Caligula, he showed awe, and Paladin Konlar .Trigoval stepped forward. He paid the priest salute and said in surprise: "Master, we didn't expect, you are here."

Ron was nodded indifferently, his eyes covered with white metallic luster turned to the Level 3 Paladin next to him, Asked: "Where is the Skywatcher?"

The Paladin squirmed his lips, lowered his head, and said: "The Skywatcher...is missing and may be dead."

The chief referee Trigoval inwardly grumbled, His Royal Highness Randal is extremely intelligent, and no one can be sure if he sees the slightest knowledge. What can he see from Ron and the animal trainer in this unintelligible conversation?

Trigoval then explained to the Pope: “The Skywatcher is the great owl... The lifespan of the great owl is very long, and its last owner was a friend of Ron Master’s, so Ron recognized Skywatcher."

Victor didn't seem to care about the chief referee's explanation, turned his head, and looked at the majestic ruin with interest.

Clement nodded, asked: "Brother Konlar, what have you encountered these days? Where is Strange?"

"The deputy commander went out hunting, he The meeting should be back." Konlar said falsely, "Let’s go to the camp first, and I will explain the situation to the adults."

The scout squad led the crowd on the 35th floor of the ruins. Their camp is located at the corner of shelter from the wind. There are a few sheepskins on the open-air stone slab, and weapons, some sundries, and some dried animal meat are stacked beside them. Apart from this, there is nothing else, not even a bonfire. .

They are living a life of devour raw meat and fowl, I'm afraid it will take some time.

Victor turned his gaze around and turned his head instructed: "Aka, turn on the stove, heat a bag of purple cane wine, and then boil some hot water."

Aka I am very happy to do some chores, which makes him feel that he is very useful to everyone. The shelf on his back can hold more than 300 pounds of supplies. He has everything necessary for traveling, of course, drinks are indispensable.

While Akka was busy making fire and hot wine, Victor asked: "Your Excellency Konlar Trigoval, how did you find this ruin?"

Paladin Konlar is simple and simple , Uncut, looks older than his uncle Lester. He laughed and said: "His Royal Highness, this ruin was originally discovered by Skywatcher... Oh, it was the big owl that first discovered it. We didn't take this place seriously at first, and we were going to complete the task first, and then come here to explore the ruins. The deputy commander of Strange tried to fight the first goblin lord for the first time, but was unsuccessful and was chased by the manticore. He took the manticore in circles on the mountain to buy time for us to transfer. He broke into this area. In the ruins, it was accidentally discovered that the manticore seemed unwilling to set foot. After wandering under the cliff for a while, he wanted to leave."

"The deputy commander chased down and shot the manticore a few arrows, deliberately angering it. Then he ran back to the ruins. As a result, the manticore chased down to the cliff and stopped. The deputy commander tried several times and confirmed that the manticore could not set foot on this ancient ruin. The specific reason is unknown. Master Strange thinks it is here. It can be used as our refuge."

The thin tin can on the stove bursts with the smell of wine. The Paladins of the squad could not help but swallow. Caligula saw that the wine was hot, and was very hospitable. I poured a glass for everyone. The Paladins saluted the stupid big fellow, and he showed a simple smile.

Konlar took a sip of purple cane wine, and said contentedly: “It’s really comfortable to eat half a month of raw meat and wild fruits and drink a cup of hot wine.”

"Tessie Deputy Commander Er originally asked us to collect some supplies and move here to camp. Without any worries, he could try to decapitate the two-headed goblin. Eight days ago, the Skyscanner did not fly back on time, and I immediately realized that the manticore It was poisoned to death. Without eyes in the sky, our situation became more dangerous. Therefore, we immediately moved to the shelter, and the supplies were not prepared enough."

"Later, the deputy commander came After that, the manticore followed him to the bottom of the cliff and called for a while, and then retreated. The priest used the cleaning technique to remove the toxins for Lord Testil. After that, Lord Testil acted alone, waiting for the opportunity to shoot the Goblin Lord , He used the semi-elemental ability and Paladin’s Recovery Technique to withstand the poison of the manticore, and then returned here to receive treatment."

Paladin Konlar’s ​​narrative is basically consistent with Victor’s speculation, Testil The commander shook his head and sighed: "Strange is too reckless..."

Strange tried several times to behead the goblin lord but failed. The target has mastered his abilities and must be effective. In response, Victor and the others have become more difficult to act.

Victor smiled and said gracefully: "We have to wait for Lord Strange to return before we can make a detailed beheading plan. This monument is magnificent, Lord Konlar, have you come in and see? "

Konlar put down the oak wine glass, shook his head and said: "I can't get in...We searched around, but we didn't find a door to get in and out."

"It... The whole body. But we confirm that the belly of the mountain is empty...you have heard the sound of water inside." He paused, pointed at the top of the snow peak, and continued: "The deputy head climbed to the top of the mountain alone and saw a bottomless The rift, the melted snow water flows in and merges into a waterfall. After surveying the terrain, the deputy head thinks that if he wants to go down, he must use a ladder of several hundred meters long. Otherwise, there is a danger of being washed away by the underground river."

Victor blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Cousin Strange couldn't go down, so I can't go down... Except for the mountainside waterfall, what is special about this ruin?"

The battle priest interface of the scout squad said: “The building has many ancient texts and patterns that are severely weathered, which are difficult to identify, and the probability of restoration is very small. However, there are 14 preserved on the top platform of the ruins. Intact giant stone balls, their surface is rough and uneven, but the degree of weathering is not too severe."

Victor first thought of the core of the earth, but the war priest talked about the special features of the ruins. He was so energetic, he was obviously a scholar priest. He was impossible to distinguish the difference between the core of the earth and the stone ball.

Pope Clement asked with interest: "What do you think of this?"

The battle priest of the court exclaimed excitedly: "Under the crown, I learned from the ruins of the building Judging from the degree of weathering and stone carving techniques, this ruin belongs to the early building of the wizard city-state. Its function is unknown, more than 15,000 years ago, but the age of the stone balls on the top floor will not exceed 400 years, that is to say, these stone balls It was moved by some creatures from elsewhere 400 years ago and placed on top of the ruins."

Paladin Konlar interjected: "I have a different view on this. Those stone balls should be'long'. It came out. Because I tried my best and couldn't push any stone ball. Its bottom seemed to be connected to the architectural ruins, and this ruin was obviously connected to the mountain. I don’t think there is any kind of wisdom. Put these stone balls on the top of the ruins."

"Ha, I heard for the first time that buildings can'grow' rocks." The relationship between Karoo, a war priest from the Bernardicte family, and Konlar Paladin Be close, ridicule said with a smile unceremoniously.

Konlar retorted: "Didn’t the cores of the earth'grow' out?"

"Those are not the cores of the earth... You also said that they are not the void Earth Element Condensation body." Pastor Kalu spread his hands and continued: "Furthermore, the core of the earth has been exposed to the air for a long time, and it will disintegrate in a few years and lose the characteristics of the Void Earth Element."

Victor stood up and said with a smile: "Anyway, we have to wait for cousin Strange to come back, and we will take this time to go up and see."

Without waiting for everyone to answer, he took the lead to jump to the top. On the platform of about 2 square kilometers, there are irregularly scattered three-meter-high round stone balls. The surface is uneven and dark brown, which seems to be ordinary limestone balls. Victor leaned forward quickly, pressing his palm against the surface of a stone ball, and the cold touch was no different from that of a stone.

The bottom of the stone ball sank into the platform, and it looked like it was growing on it. Victor tried to push it. The stone ball was completely motionless.

This was in his expectation. In terms of power, the Silver-tier Earth Knight is not much worse than the Golden Knight. Konlar is not only an Earth Knight, but also a Level 4 Paladin. The sacred realm protects his soul from the invasion of the elemental sea, enabling him to mobilize Peak that surpasses the Silver-tier. strength. The most important thing is that the high-level Knight with earth element affinity is connected to the earth in a semi-elemental state, immune to knockback and lower limit, and can exert 100% power on the target.

Konlar tried his best and couldn't push the stone ball. Victor was also helpless, but he must give it a try.

The eyes are completely dark golden, and the Water Element part of the body is transformed into the earth element. The power contained in the body of the rock surpasses the level of the Golden Knight of the earth, equivalent to the combined force of the Silver Step Rage Knight and the Earth Knight.

Victor's slender and white palm reached out to the stone ball again.

"Wait! It's not a dead thing."

Relieving the state of the body of the rock, Victor turned his head and saw Ron Paladin, who was barefoot in the commoner, over the crowd, walking a few steps to the front. Put the hands without palm prints on the surface of the stone ball, said solemnly:

"I feel that it hides the seeds of life. When you touch it, they become active."

p>

"Sun Elf, don't wake them up...they are so powerful that the manticore dare not step into this ruin." Ron took a deep look at Victor and retreated to Pope Clement's side.

Tornance met Victor’s suspicious gaze, slightly nodded, and said with a serious expression: "I felt it just now, but...no malice, no danger."

Look at Victor. The look in his eyes suddenly became weird, with envy, surprise, doubt, and unnoticeable worry.

"Could it be... the remains of the temple left by the ancient Elf Race? These stone balls are the Guardian of the temple? I remember that the ancient stone slabs in the Ivory Saint Fort collection have records... There is a rare Elf Race Dwarf vassals, they are tall and sturdy, with an average height of 3 meters, and tyrannical strength. They are called giant Dwarf Race."

The more excited the battle priest Karoo said, the volume gradually increased, "If the legend is true Yes, the giant Dwarf Race is fully capable of digging a mountain into a temple of this size..."

Clement coughed, and Pastor Kalu woke up and shut up quickly.

"Victor, let's leave here first, go to the bottom and wait for Strange," the Pope said gently.

Testil also said: "Yes, cousin Victor, the ruins will not disappear. When the time is right, we will discover the secrets. It is best to invite His Highness Sylvia York to come. "

With the lessons learned from the sword saint Drawin, the pope and the captain are worried that this ruin will allow Victor to leave the human kingdom unfathomable mystery to find Elf Race. One day, Victor really had to leave and no one could stop him, but at least he and Sylvia had to give birth to the son of noble bloodline before he could leave.

Victor retracted his palm in a jealousy, his heart was ups and downs.

Where is the temple of Elf Race, it is clearly Alchemy Tower, these stone balls are simply some kind of special alchemy creatures.

Living alchemy creature...Is this Alchemy Tower alive?

If this is the living Alchemy Tower, who is its owner?
