You want to make me the devil, right?

"We're here! We're here!"

After arriving at the Ulan Mine, Xia En handed a silver coin to the coachman.

Immediately afterward, he followed the map given by Morina and headed towards the place where the Great Prophet lived in seclusion.

Just as he was passing by the Ulan Mine, a prompt suddenly sounded in his mind:

【Detecting an extremely ideal location for landmark construction, precisely guiding you in the direction!】

"?"

Xia En was surprised to see the prompt.

He didn't expect to gain extra rewards from a trip outside the city!

When he looked at the location indicated by the golden arrow, he discovered that the so-called extremely ideal location for landmark construction was actually the Ulan Mine!

"The entire mine?"

Xia En was shocked; he didn't expect that the entire mine would be suitable for building a landmark—a Necropolis!

In addition, because the Ulan Mine was extremely dangerous, monsters often appeared inside the mine shafts, and there were occasional collapses.

Therefore, the mining of this area was extremely slow and difficult.

Even though it was close to the Dawn Empire's royal city, very few people came here; only a handful could be seen.

Before long, he arrived at his destination.

The Great Prophet's secluded residence was just an ordinary wooden house.

The surrounding area was deserted; even the nearby village was several kilometers away.

Xia En arrived at the wooden house, gently knocked on the wooden door, and asked, "Hello, is anyone there?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden door slowly opened.

Immediately afterward, the scene inside the wooden house slowly unfolded.

The house was spotless and well-organized; each piece of furniture, though seemingly ordinary, faintly exuded a hint of magic.

However, they were not magical objects; they had simply been tainted by their owner's power.

On the wooden chair, an elderly man was leaning back.

He was not surprised by Xia En's arrival; instead, he calmly said, "Just put my daughter's letter on the table."

"Okay."

Xia En nodded and placed Morina's letter on the wooden table.

"Then I'll leave first."

Xia En prepared to leave after placing the letter.

"Wait."

The Great Prophet stopped him at this moment.

"Is there anything else?"

"You…"

The Great Prophet stared at Xia En with a calm expression; after hesitating for a long time, he slowly said, "Forget it; it's all too late."

"I have a key here; could you give it to Morina for me, please?"

As he spoke, his withered palm slowly opened, revealing a bronze key engraved with strange patterns.

"Okay."

Xia En took the key and was about to put it into the Demon King Space.

The Great Prophet pondered for a moment and then slowly added, "If this item cannot be delivered to Morina, I hope you will keep it safe.

Remember, never let it fall into the hands of the Queen and those demons."

"Don't worry, I will keep it safe!"

Xia En solemnly promised.

This key absolutely cannot be snatched away by the Queen and other demons!

"Thank you."

The Great Prophet smiled with relief and then closed his eyes to rest, falling into a deep sleep.

Xia En didn't disturb him and left the wooden house.

After completing Morina's request, he ran towards the Ulan Mine.

He had just thought of how to build the Necropolis.

It was simple!

Just buy the Ulan Mine, wouldn't that be fine?

Just as he was heading towards the Ulan Mine, a mighty procession suddenly appeared in his sight.

"Royal Knights?"

Xia En frowned slightly.

Why would the Royal Knights appear here?

There was only one obvious reason: they were here for the Great Prophet.

In the very center of the Royal Knights' formation, there was also an extremely luxurious carriage.

The entire carriage was a mysterious dark purple, meticulously carved with gilded gold on the surface; the carriage body shimmered with brilliance, dazzling and outrageously extravagant!

The noble status of the owner of such a luxurious carriage was self-evident.

The Royal Knights were not interested in Xia En by the roadside and went straight to the wooden house where the Great Prophet was.

The Queen?

Xia En guessed that the person in the carriage was most likely the Queen.

After all, the Dawn Empire's royalty did not like dark colors; only the Dawn Queen was an exception.

Just as Xia En turned around, preparing to continue heading towards the Ulan Mine,

A figure silently appeared behind him, causing his heart to tremble.

When did she arrive!?

When did she get behind me?

Xia En narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the black-haired woman standing opposite him.

The woman was wearing a black gauze dress, light as mist, her face hidden behind a veil as thin as a cicada's wing, appearing and disappearing, making it difficult to see her true appearance.

Her figure was graceful, like a phantom, seemingly real and illusory, inspiring infinite reverie.

However, the surrounding atmosphere was cold and stern, like the darkness in the abyss, making people feel chills and fear.

Gulp~

Xia En swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes wary.

Although he had never seen the Queen, his brain told him that the person in front of him must be the Dawn Queen!

The Queen who Morina said was about to betray the country!

"You…"

The Queen took a step forward, her dark golden pupils beneath the black veil staring unblinkingly at Xia En, tinged with a hint of playfulness.

It was as if… she had found her prey?

Xia En remained calm and asked the other party, "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with, Madam?"

The Queen rarely appeared before the public, and she did not wear any crowns or other items that could identify her identity, so it was normal not to recognize her.

"Madam?"

The Queen smiled slightly upon hearing this.

She slowly moved closer to Xia En and then walked around him, as if she were examining him or testing him.

Then, she slowly said, "Your name is Xia En, isn't it?"

"You know me?"

Xia En looked puzzled; how could the Queen know him?

Could it be because of that friendly match?

But wasn't she there for Lady White Rose…

Why would she pay attention to him?

Was it because she noticed him when he came out of Lady White Rose's VIP room?

"I watched your battle with Aurelia~"

The Queen smiled lightly and then whispered in Xia En's ear, "I admire your Fireball spell very much; would you be interested in coming to my house and performing it for me?"

"My bed~ is very big~\

,""~~~"

Xia En shivered uncontrollably; what was wrong with this Queen?

Was she a succubus?

"Cough cough~ My sister doesn't allow me to go to strangers' houses!"

Xia En quickly refused.

"Hehehe~ What an interesting boy~\

,"The Queen covered her mouth and chuckled; after teasing Xia En, her figure gradually became illusory.

And in the end, she left a word:

"Instead of being unknown in the Saint-Hua Magic Academy, why not be loyal to me~\

,""Your Fireball spell is great~ Your Holy Water is also great~ And you~ are even better~\

,""I can give you everything you want!"

"As long as you are willing to become a plaything that belongs only to me~\

,""Think it over and come to the palace to find me~\

,""Little boy who knows Fireball~\

,"Xia En: "…"
