Chapter 421 A Chaotic World (13)

Pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud is the norm in the world.

In this land, nothing happens in isolation.The ancient dragons have incomparable power, which means that they are destined to be unable to develop silently and become stronger without anyone noticing—because their existence will trigger changes in the world and create a world that belongs to them. Ecosphere.

But on the other hand, if an ancient dragon suddenly descended among the nations, it would appear out of nowhere.

There is only one possibility.

That is, the nations don't have a deep understanding of the world they live in....

There is a labyrinth hidden deep within their kingdom.

Ian believes that a maze can fully support an ancient dragon.

Take the Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea as an example, its internal ecology can definitely withstand the survival of several monsters of the fourth energy level.

As for the fifth energy level, there is no need to think about it, because the fifth energy level is no longer a member of the natural ecology, but the complete creator of the natural ecology.

Just like the complete Qiganglong doesn't care about the natural ecology of Nanling at all, as long as he exists, he can distort the world around him to suit him.

"There is a big labyrinth in Canaan Moore, and this labyrinth has never been discovered. The larvae of the steel dragon have grown in it for a long time, until recently, they have reached the fourth energy level, and have the ability to gradually change the surrounding ecology."

This is Ian's conclusion.

And this conclusion is basically correct.

"...Indeed, that's exactly what it is."

Anfa was silent for a while, and the elven scholar nodded in admiration: "Basically that's it--the church members of the Canaan Moore branch accidentally discovered a huge underground dark area during a mountain exploration, leading directly to deep in the earth's crust."

"In it, there is a brand new vein of smeltite... He sensed something was wrong, so he stopped exploring and returned with only the most elite piece of it."

"However, the Canaan Moor Branch did not have the technology to identify the steel stone, so they entrusted us to carry out the identification. They hoped to find out whether the underground steel dragon was related to the Baisen dragon god in blood—if so , whether it is possible to find the other party through this source of connection."

"It's amazing!" Xiou was more direct, and he applauded with emotion: "How did you guess the maze? I guessed that this steel dragon was forgotten by the mother in the dragon's nest. Eat the mountain to grow..."

——Of course, it's not that I haven't seen the Great Labyrinth, and what you're saying is simply putting your own experience on other dragons.

Ian thought to himself, then turned his head to look at the old mountain man.

Since the two Qiangang dragons are connected, it's no wonder Elder Manya said that he must know.

No matter how things develop, the Nanling Dragon Worship Sect will definitely participate in this incident about the ancient dragon and the labyrinth, and because of the belief of the Baisen Dragon God, it will definitely cause huge damage to the mountain people, and even the entire Nanling Province. Influence.

——So, after the Marquis of Barton knew about this, did he also provide convenience for the Dragon Blessing?
Compared with worshiping the Dragon Sect to make trouble secretly, it is better to cooperate directly and control the matter in their own hands.

"That's about it."

Elder Manya stretched out his hand, took out the scorpion necklace from the altar, and handed it back to Anfa.

He stared at the phantom of the dragon god still floating on the altar, and said softly: "This is something that cannot be refused. Just like Ian, no matter how you think about it, you are also from Nanling, and you are a white citizen of Port Harrison. The steel dragon is the dragon god of Nanling, and we are all dragon blood holders of Nanling."

"Since this is the case, why not take the initiative to find out the successor of the Dragon God."

"It's just that before we act, we have to find out the ghost."

"Indeed." Anfa nodded: "According to my guess, the betrayer should be an elf code-named 'Zifeng'. She used to be a knight. She was forced to wander because she offended a member of parliament. Awakened Dragon Blood."

"Looking at it now, it should be a bitter plan for the undercover... Now she should be protected by the candle holder."

"She is not the most important target." Elder Man Ya said: "After all, she has already betrayed, and arresting her will not recover the loss—not to mention that Zifeng did not succeed at all. The source quality in the stone, you only need to wait for the king of the mountain to return, and then you can use the reaction of the altar to find the position of the son of the Dragon God in reverse."

Having said that, the old man paused his bone stick, and said in a deep voice: "Our most important purpose is to cooperate with the Marquis of Barton and find out the ghost on their side."

"Otherwise, no matter what we do, he will leak the news."

At this point, the discussion is almost over, because Ian is still injured and needs to rest, so he left early.

Xiou took the boy away, while the old man and Anfa stood in front of the altar.

There are no mottled moss marks on the ancient altar, but there are still traces of wind and rain. A piece of moonlight penetrates the thick clouds in the Nanling Mountains and shines on the steel stone, making its luster deeper.

"He is not an undercover agent, but his purpose is not pure."

Anfa was the first to speak and expressed his conclusion, and a nearly cross star-shaped light mark faintly lit up in the elf's golden pupils.

He looked in the direction where Ian and Xiou left, and said lightly: "He didn't have the slightest malice towards us, but he didn't panic when he knew we were the Dragon Worship Cult - normal knights or sublimators wouldn't have this attitude, unless he already knows what kind of organization we are and is determined to join it, otherwise he will definitely be somewhat repulsive."

"Although the mysterious black shadow was indeed chasing him all the way, I feel that this may also be within Ian's calculations. He used the black shadow's hand to win our trust... or there is someone who is with us. An excuse for contact, but also an opportunity to observe our attitude towards him."

"Although he is young, he has a deep mind. Under the beautiful and harmless appearance, he is actually as beautiful and sharp as a sword forged by cold steel, and extremely dangerous."

This is a fairly objective evaluation. The old man was silent for a long time. After more than ten seconds, he slowly said: "Anfa, this is not a problem at all."

"Our purpose is not pure, is it?"

The old man raised his head, he looked at the elf bachelor, and said in a calm tone, "I joined the Dragon Worship Cult in order to use the name of the Dragon God belief to reorganize the mountain people who have been scattered and almost split."

"Xio and his mother, the king of the mountain of Baisen, are trying to use the knowledge and foundation of the Dragon Blessing for thousands of years, so that they can achieve the fifth energy level and become one of the real kings on this land."

"And you, the boy from the Jindeng family... You said that you wanted to explore the lost ancient knowledge, so you joined the Dragon Cult... Of course it is true, but like Ian, is that all there is?"

"...Of course not." Anfa opened his mouth to speak, and after a few seconds, he shook his head with a wry smile: "But I already understand."

The elf bachelor whispered: "We really need a promising knight in the empire to provide us with all the information and resources we need—just as this promising knight also needs our knowledge and resources. We cooperate with each other. "

"Win-win." Elder Manya emphasized, he stretched out his hand, causing the dragon shadow on the altar to groan, and then dissipated: "So I only need to know one thing - he has no malice towards us."

"that's enough."

He turned around and left the sacrificial altar square: "Let's go, I will probably have to contact Little Grant later, and you should rest early, Nanling will not be peaceful for some time to come."

"You're right, but I don't think it's just Nanling."

Anfa followed behind the old man, and he laughed at himself in a somewhat humorous tone: "Why do you think I left Canaan Moore again? Once the Heavenly Royal Court retreats, the Federation Council will be completely chaotic..."

"In this world, where is the chaos?"

……

Ian's pursuit of the mysterious shadow and his disappearance in the depths of the Byson Mountains was quickly reported back to Port Harrison.

Surprisingly, not many people were concerned about Ian's safety.

——I don't think Ian/that kid would be so reckless, he must have other plans or preparatory plans!

Although some people are indeed worried about Ian's accident, most people's trust in Ian is already quite blind... Especially those few who saw Ian with his own eyes and took the special action of flying flames in no time. The caravan members who came back with their heads firmly believed that everything was in Ian's plan.

——Will Ian be assassinated by the mysterious assailant?It's almost the other way around!

And Viscount Grant is also one of them.

But as the 'true' news continued to come back, he also began to worry about the safety of his knights.

The good thing is that he quickly found out through certain channels that Ian is currently recuperating in the Avod Department... or in other words, the Dragon Sect is recuperating, which is very safe.
