It was a prosperous town, and behind it lay a trance of ruins.

On that land, it seemed that only this one town stood there, occupying the land that had been isolated from the outside world for who knows how many years.

Chapter 61 Ambition to Conquer

The forbidden land that has been covered in dust for countless years contains ruins and a prosperous town.

The three people who saw this scene had different expressions.

The city lord's guard, Bernkom, showed an interested expression, but other than that, he didn't show much other than that.

Osido stared at the corner of the ruins. The information about the Forbidden Land was too old and rare to be verified, but he had learned a piece of information from some channels.

Before the history of constant disputes among human nations on the mainland, before approaching the lost historical fault line, it was said that mankind had a unified and powerful empire.

The source of many powerful schools of arcane magic today comes from that huge empire.

As for the city lord Raph, he was in the most intense mood and stared at the town.

"Master Osido..."

Raph suppressed his emotions and spoke softly.

"I need to see more clearly, more."

Laffer's ideas coincided with Osido's.

Thirty more slaves were pushed into the temple, their hands and feet bound, but this time there were no bags on their heads.

There were fifteen human skeletons on the ground, and the white bones were still stained with blood. Seeing this scene, the slaves couldn't help but wailed and begged the city lord to let them go.

But it was all in vain. After being held down by the guards of the city lord's palace, Osido once again cast the runes one by one.

When Osido recited the incantation again, the slaves once again turned into a cloud of blood mist and disappeared into the sky.

An image once again appeared on Osido's crystal ball. When it passed through the forest, the image still fluctuated and became blurry. But when it passed through the forest and reflected the land, the image became more clear. clear.

You can see large areas of neat farmland, and you can see the river slowly irrigating along the canals.You can see neat houses and energetic young and middle-aged men and women on the town roads paved with flat stone slabs.

The ruins and ruins behind the town became more clear. The desolate ruins and the vibrant town formed a sharp contrast.

"There are probably more than 4000 people in this town..."

It can be roughly judged from the size of the town and the number of houses.

"Seems very rich..."

The town is clean and tidy, there are no beggars to be seen, and everyone's spirit is quite full. This can only be achieved when material conditions are relatively abundant.

"Brown hair, smooth forehead, slightly narrow nose bridge, round chin...a bit of a Mitlander."

Osido judged some information based on the image of the town reflected in the crystal ball.

But there are still some doubts.

This town seems to be newly built...perhaps because the people who built the city just moved here?

So where did they come from?

There seems to be only one answer...

These people probably moved here from the ruins.

If that rumor is true and the Forbidden Land is the remnant of that huge empire in lost history, then are these people the remnants of the empire?

Are the changes in the Forbidden Land related to these empire remnants?

While Osido was still thinking, Lafer had already stood up from his seat and was pacing excitedly on the high platform.

People who are familiar with Laffer will know that his performance is a sign of extreme excitement.

"I want...this town!"

Raph pointed to the town in the crystal ball and spoke.

Laffer's height is very short, a shortness that is close to a physical defect. Even if he stands up, he still does not exceed the height of Osido and Bernkom who are sitting.

But except for the two of them, there was still no one in the entire Xi'an City who looked up or even looked down at him.

Teraf Shean is the god of this city of white stone, and everything in this city should fall at his feet.

But Laffer still wasn't satisfied with that.

His idol is the emperor who controls a huge territory across the ocean and spreads fear to the entire continent on a continent filled with strong men and constant disputes.

Kusha's master, Emperor Ganeshka.

Raph was not satisfied with domination, he longed for conquest.

It's just that in Slaver's Bay, a peaceful place far away from the disputes on the mainland, such a thing as conquest is simply too far-fetched.

The structure of the Three-Stone City has been established for a long time, and it has a close relationship in trade.The strength of the Three Stone City is relatively close. It can even be said that compared to the Black Stone and Blood Stone cities, the White Stone City is still slightly weaker.

In addition to the Three Stone City, there is another force in Slaver's Bay, Yharnam, the Healing City.

Yanan came here to build a city 200 years ago, but quickly established a foothold.The City of Three Stones is extremely wary of this low-key and mysterious city.

Apart from these three, there is no room for other forces to take root in Slaver's Bay, and Laffer's ambitions can only be realized by hunting wild people.

However, hunting wild people is like a child stepping on ants, and is far inferior to true conquest.

But now, the forbidden land is unsealed, and there is a town behind the forest, which allows Raph to see his long-awaited desire.

He ravaged and trampled hard, just like the Great Emperor Gnishuka, who spread his name behind the forest as a synonym for fear.

Thinking of that outcome, it was like a dream coming true, and Raph's short body began to tremble.

Moreover, the more he thought like this, the more Raph felt the flame of desire burning in his heart, making him unable to suppress the impulse in his heart and began to implement his ambition.

"Immediately, immediately... prepare the manpower!" Raph pointed at the crystal and shouted.

"City Lord, this seems a bit too urgent. I think it's better to prepare more."

Osido has no objection to Xi'an's power going deep into the Forbidden Land.

It's just that he doesn't know what happened to the sudden unblocking of the forbidden land. He instinctively believed that it would not be too late to make contact first and learn the information before taking action.

"What's more, I still don't know how powerful this town is..."

"Not enough to be afraid of."

Bernkom, who had been silent until now, spoke.

"The population of this town does not exceed five thousand. Even if it has any power, it is insignificant in front of Xi'an."

"I just noticed that although these people are strong, there is nothing special about them. The 'Unsullied' plus the auxiliary soldiers of the slaves are enough to easily deal with them."

Even if the other party has the extraordinary power of the demon species, again, how powerful a town of this size can be.

Moreover, Xi'an can fight against him and Osido here.

After Bernkom spoke, Osido stopped talking.

He could roughly guess what Bernkom was thinking. Although he was a guard of the city lord, his relationship with Raph was actually an employment relationship.

For him, Raph is a wealthy city lord, and as long as he can satisfy his desires, he can get rich rewards.

And for Osido, this is not the case.

Chapter 62 Arrogance

"There are traces of two detection magic...but specific covert interference has been carried out."

In the evening, the four heroic spirits and Poluk gathered in the lord's mansion, Kazama's study.

Hohenheim made some arrangements in the opened gap and built a simple position for defense.

Bai Mong has been transmitting information for nearly half a year, and everyone is no stranger to the power of the White Stone City.

Osido, the aboriginal magician.With a spellcaster, it is normal to conduct investigations on a mysterious level.

"How is the opponent's level?"

Kazama asked Hohenheim.

This Osido has always kept a low profile in the City of White Stone, and usually stays in his tower.Even for Baimai, the collection of intelligence can only start from the impressions of some aborigines.However, such information has limited reference value.

But now, the casters from both sides were fighting on an invisible level, and Kazama still wanted to get some specific information from Hohenheim.

After all, judging from the ruins, it seems that the mysterious and extraordinary power of this world is not weak.Even though it has experienced great changes, since there are aboriginal humans remaining, a certain amount of inheritance must have been retained.

"It's still impossible to make an accurate judgment. The magic system in this world is indeed different from our magic foundation."

"But... I think both I and Avisbron are confident in facing this aboriginal magician."

That's because the level is insufficient...

Kazama nodded slightly.

Regardless of whether it is Avis Bronn or Hohenheim, as an orthodox magician who left his name on the Human Soul Seat, there is no doubt that he was a crown-level person during his lifetime. As the founder of the foundation or a crown-level person who has the hope of reaching the root magician.

After becoming a heroic spirit, the concept sublimates and becomes more powerful.

Although with the current power of human logic, the basic quality of these two is not as good as it was in their heyday, and has been weakened to a certain extent.But the knowledge and experience of magic have not declined.

All in all, Kazama has full confidence in his own master.

Kazama looked at Poluk and Arash again. The former looked solemn, while the latter responded with a hearty smile.

"The boys are all ready to fight and are ready to fight at any time. They are all great boys. I don't think they will lose to the soldiers from the white stone city outside."

In fact, preparations for war have already been underway since Kazama planned to open the forest mystery lock.

Kazama's eyes were on Avisbronn.

Avisbron nodded slightly and said:

"Three hundred stone golems have been adjusted to combat mode, which is enough to support a normal-intensity war."

"In addition, if we face the local magician named 'Osido', please ask Mr. Kazama to let me deal with him."

Compared to his usual reticence, Avisbron made the request this time, and there was a hint of expectation in his words.

Kazama could roughly guess what Avisbronn was thinking.Teacher Wei is obsessed with building his own big figure, but the heart of the figure needs a magician to make it.

"Well, then I'll leave it to you." Kazama agreed readily.

Among the five people in the room, one person did not speak.

The handsome Hassan stayed in the corner of the room like a silent shadow, his head lowered.

She didn't raise her head until she felt something.

"My lords, relevant information regarding Xi'an's reaction has been passed on."

Hohenheim's previous cover had only been directed at the forest portion and the military camp's armed forces.The other party can still see the situation of the town itself.

It's no surprise that Xian learned of Rome's existence.

"The city lord Raph has begun to summon the nobles and slave owners, and mobilized the slave auxiliaries and the 'Unsullied'. It is estimated that there will be some action in the near future."

After hearing the information stated by Bai Mang, the study suddenly became quiet.

Finally, Kazama spoke softly: "It's really direct..."

White Stone City's reaction was somewhat out of Kazama's expectations.

With the understanding of White Stone City's intelligence, Kazama knew that once the two sides came into contact, Xi'an would most likely launch a war to restore his own population and wealth.

It's just that before a war, it's usually an intelligence confrontation.

Even after Columbus discovered the American continent, when Westerners set foot in that land isolated from civilization, they did not immediately take out their knives when facing the Native Americans. Instead, they first used gifts to obtain information.

Showing such a direct attack attitude and flashing a knife when meeting him, it can only be said that Xi'an is indeed full of confidence in his own power.

No, this cannot be said to be confidence, but...

"arrogant."

Hohenheim spoke softly, pronouncing the word.

"When a person or a class is in a dominant position for too long, arrogance will always be taken as a matter of course."

Hohenheim had a fair amount of say in this.
