In the Name of the Queen

Humans are extremely insignificant in front of nature. Level 7 Transcendents are just stronger humans. They are naturally powerless to resist natural disasters such as avalanches.

Although Roland and Alina skied down very quickly, they were still faster than the avalanche.

The whistling snow quickly submerged the two.

Roland held up the Divine Blessing and formed a protective area in the snow to protect the two.

"You are so accurate in your calculations."

He smiled sincerely.

"You actually still have the mind to joke?" Alina was a little speechless.

"Wait until the avalanche is over and the snow structure is stable, then we can go out. The snow is loose and breathable, and we won't be suffocated. There is no need to panic." Roland's tone was very calm.

"Thank you."

Alina's voice was as soft as slowly falling snowflakes.

Her thank you had too many meanings. She should thank Roland for helping her regain power and take revenge, and thank Roland for taking her in when she was in danger, but these things were too heavy, and a thank you was not enough.

So she said thank you for Roland coming to see her after receiving the letter.

Although she watched the stars in the observatory every day, the latest information would always be sent to her as soon as possible.

The Wende Empire could no longer hold on, and the Sussex Empire was about to become the front line against the crazy expansion of the Vladimir Empire.

Roland was very busy now, and he had enough reasons not to come, but he still came.

Not only did he come, but he also accompanied her to rush up the snow slope like crazy, and then was trapped in the snow of the avalanche.

She put aside her last doubts, bit her lip and whispered:

"Are you sure?"

"No, but I have no way out." Roland's tone was very calm.

The atmosphere has come to this point, where is there any way out?

Even if Sophia begged for mercy now, she would most likely kill Roland and Sif in anger.

In this case, we have to resist to the end.

Roland understood this principle, and Alina naturally understood it too.

Alina lowered her head, listening to the rumbling snow rolling down her head, feeling the increasingly thick snow layer, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

She had just calculated that they were trapped halfway up the mountain, but afterwards she felt something was wrong.

With their strength, even if the snow layer piled up for dozens of meters, they would not be able to stop them.

As long as the snow layer stabilized, they could dig out, so why were they trapped here? She couldn't figure it out, so she threw out her doubts.

"Since we can go out but didn't, it means we don't want to go." Roland said nonsense seriously.

Alina glared at him unhappily, "Be serious!"

"I'm serious. Just now I thought of a possibility. Is there something buried under this snow mountain that is attractive enough for us?"

Alina was stunned for a moment, did not speak, and accepted Roland's explanation in her heart.

This is indeed a very likely explanation.

The divine blessing is still protecting them. There is enough space under the thick snow layer. She simply took out the angel card she carried with her and stepped on a flat ground with her boots to use as a divination table.

Roland looked at Alina with some curiosity.

This is not the first time he has seen Alina use angel cards for divination, but it is the first time at such a close distance.

Although the divine protection can support a small space, it is only a small space, just enough for two people to squeeze together, and the divination place is very small.

Roland squeezed out and stood against the snow wall. Although he was curious, he did not interrupt Alina.

Alina was very pleased with Roland's obedient cooperation. She nodded to express her gratitude and began to divination without saying a word.

The object of divination this time was not Roland or Sophia, but the nearby ruins, which was not difficult.

At least there was no need to worry about backlash.

She was focused, holding the cards and putting them down in the expected order.

Looking at her solemn expression, Roland held his breath and his eyes wandered on her cheek.

It was not the first time that he was so close to Alina.

The last time was at the dinner party.

But the light was not good at that time, and he could not see clearly. Now he had the opportunity to appreciate Alina's facial features carefully.

Her appearance was only slightly inferior to Sif, and was probably similar to Sophia and Christine.

Roland, who was somewhat bored, silently rated the charm of the women he had seen.

The top of the list was of course Sif and Elf Sif.

Although they had almost the same appearance, their temperaments were completely different and each had its own characteristics.

Although their charms were almost the same, Roland still gave the championship to Sif without hesitation.

There was no other reason, Sif was his wife. Although the relationship between him and Elf Sif was close, it was not as good as a beloved wife after all.

Sif was unique, and there were many who were slightly inferior to her.

According to Roland's judgment, Sophia, Alina, Christine and another annoying Saint Irene were all on this list.

In addition to those he had seen, the Queen of the King of Tyrol, Anna, the female general of the army of the Kingdom of Pruden, and others were said to have equally good female charm.

Queen Tyrol was already a mother of two children, so she did not participate in the female charm evaluation.

General Anna announced that she was married to the country and did not consider personal affairs, so her charm was meaningless.

Sister Lisa is considered a top beauty among ordinary people, but she is slightly inferior to super beauties.

If Sif is scored as 100 points, Sophia and others score between 96-98, and Sister Lisa's female charm score is about 93 points.

Although Lisa ranks slightly lower, she is growing very fast.

Maybe it's the magic training that nourishes people, or maybe it's because she learned the magic empire's makeup magic, anyway, she looks more and more feminine.

Thinking that sister Lisa is also 26 years old this year, Roland can't help but feel a little emotional.

He knows what Lisa is waiting for.

After the wedding with Sif is over, he will confess to her and ask her to accept Lisa.

Based on Roland's understanding of Sif, she will probably not refuse.

Sif was born in the royal family and has seen a lot of such things, so she has no psychological burden to accept it.

In order to win over Roland, she even thought about buying him a beautiful maid to sleep with him, but he refused sternly.

For politicians, marriage or lover relationship, it is often a political transaction.

But this will make Sif feel hurt.

Thinking of the intimacy with Sif in the hot spring, Roland could only sigh secretly.

What girl doesn't want to have exclusive love?

Sif can accept it, but it doesn't mean that she can be calm in her heart.

The intimate love words in the hot spring sounded like a joke after the extramarital lover appeared.

Just as Roland was thinking about it, Alina suddenly spurted out blood, dyeing the white snow red.

Roland was startled and quickly grabbed Alina's hand. The milky white light surged from his palm and wrapped Alina's body.

His secondary profession is a paladin.

Although the paladin's healing ability is not as good as that of professionals such as priests and druids, it is worse than nothing.

Alina panted, feeling the warmth from Roland's palm, without resistance, just silently closed her eyes to recover her strength.

She was backfired again, still because of Roland, but this time the reason was a little difficult to say.

When the angel card was divination, because Roland had no defense, she unexpectedly sensed Roland's thoughts in his mind.

This kind of information beyond the divination itself made it impossible for her to concentrate, and she was backfired without surprise.

Fortunately, she had seen the result of the divination before the backlash.

"Don't be so stubborn. Exploring the ruins is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the risk factor is very high. Even if you see it, there is no need to force your way in."

"I saw it clearly!" Alina raised her voice and protested loudly.

She didn't want to say that she was backfired because she accidentally spied on Roland's thoughts, and she didn't want her professional ability to be questioned by Roland, so she naturally opposed it firmly.

"Just about 75 meters below us, there is a mysterious ancient ruins, which is estimated to be at least 50,000 years old."

"50,000 years?" Roland couldn't hide his surprise.

This time period is already the Nirvana Era of the Fifth Era.

The Fifth Era Alemanni Empire Armory discovered in the Battle of Helenburg changed the situation of the war and made Roland more interested in the technology of the Nirvana Era.

"Then let's go and take a look?" he asked tentatively.

"Of course we have to go, but we don't have professional digging tools." Alina had just said half of her words when she saw Roland take out two shovels from the Moonlight Silver Armor and handed one to her.

She smiled and took the small Austrian steel shovel and started digging without saying a word.

The soil under the snow-capped mountains was as hard as rock, but it was no different from soft mud in essence in front of the Austrian steel shovel and the power of the extraordinary.

Alina dug very quickly.

The strength and endurance of the extraordinary far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people, and the speed of digging tunnels was also beyond imagination.

It took less than half a day for her to dig more than 70 meters and found the ruins of the Fifth Age according to the guidance of divination.

Standing at the door of the ruins, Roland could clearly feel the weight of time.

This ruins looks like a professional laboratory.

To be precise, it is not very similar, but it is.

Alemannic and Odin languages ​​are of the same origin. Although there is a reading threshold, it is not much.

The metal sign hanging at the door of this laboratory is rusty, but the handwriting of [Browning Province Life Laboratory] can be barely recognized.

Roland was a little disappointed.

If it is a weapons laboratory or even other scientific laboratories, it is useful, but the life laboratory has the lowest value.

The reason is simple. Can life live for 50,000 years?

Even the most resistant tortoise will become a dry tortoise.

The life forms used for the experiment have long since disappeared, and most of the experimental results of that year are useless.

At the end of each era, there is a round of biological extinction, and the creatures of the new era are far from those of the ancient era.

Although they did not hope that there was a treasure inside, it would be a bit rude not to go in and take a look since they were here. Roland and Alina looked at each other and made a decision at the same time.

Go in and take a look.

The door of the laboratory was not closed, and the access control system had long been invalid. Roland and Alina entered the laboratory without any obstacles.

Roland walked in front, and Alina followed behind with a dagger in her left hand and a pistol in her right hand.

Although the probability of having an enemy is small, it is a good habit to stay vigilant.

What if there is an accident?

Just as Roland was patrolling left and right, an accident still happened.

He saw a dusty robot in the corner slowly moving.

"Hello, the mechanical assistant Ham-1 is at your service. I cannot confirm your identity. Please verify your identity."

As he spoke, the robot had locked onto Roland's face and scanned the information.

Maybe because it was left there for too long, the scanning device malfunctioned and the scan failed.

The humanoid mechanical assistant was silent for a moment and made a new judgment based on the underlying logic.

"Warning! Verification failed! No permission!"

"Warning! Verification failed! No permission!"

Roland remained alert and stared at the mechanical assistant Ham.

Damn, it turned out to be a mentally retarded robot that would take action if it couldn't recognize something.

Although the mechanical assistant did not look like a combat robot, Roland still did not dare to neglect it.

He raised his scepter, preparing to give the robot a hard blow.

The internal structure of the robots is exquisite, and the impact of blunt objects on them is ideal.

However, the reaction of the mechanical assistant left him a little confused.

The mechanical assistant did not launch an annihilation operation, but offered alternative plans very flexibly.

"Identity cannot be verified. You can visit the laboratory as a tourist."

Visit a lab?

Roland breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile: "All areas?"

"Yes, all areas."

The mechanical assistant didn't explain too much. After all, it didn't know some things. It only knew that the permissions of visitors in this laboratory were very high.

After obtaining the authorization to visit, Roland and Alina could finally relax.

They looked at the signs and floor plans that were in ruins on the wall and identified the divisions inside the laboratory.

The first is the test product storage area.

Although they are certainly dead, it would be nice to look at the fossils.

To satisfy their curiosity, the two first went to the storage area.

As Roland expected, there were many animal bones in the storage area. The twisted shapes of many of the bones showed how much they didn't want to die.

Facing the skeletal specimens from the previous era, Roland stopped to look at them and remained silent for a long time.

These specimens are indeed quite different from the mainstream creatures of this era.

After the visit, Roland and Alina left the storage area and exchanged opinions.

"Alina, have you noticed that some creatures look very strange? If we judge based on their bone structure, I'm afraid..."

"Life fusion experiment." Alina said calmly.

"Did you notice it too?" Roland admired Alina's judgment very much.

Alina said disapprovingly: "My father."

She didn't finish her words, but Roland already understood.

Mr. Carlo probably also obtained knowledge from the Fifth Era and conducted experiments in the Golden Kite Kingdom.

Roland, who knew a little about alchemy, was very repelled by the life fusion experiment.

In his view, higher life forms are basically the best ones that survive the competition for survival in nature.

They have their own evolutionary characteristics. Forced fusion is not a good thing and can easily get out of control.

Judging from the laboratory's test subjects, these include giant orangutans and other apes.

Apparently, this laboratory has experimented with merging apes with other species.

If apes can do it, let's continue with humans.

Roland felt a little uncomfortable for no reason and took the lead in walking towards the archive information area.

Various experimental data and results of the laboratory are stored here.

Roland scanned the book at the speed of quantum reading and actually found similar information.

He handed over the task of collecting books to Alina and continued his search.

He soon found his target, a long paper, "The Convergence of Life Changes Human Evolution."

Good guy, this is the real owner.

Opening the title page, Roland flipped through it casually, disapproving of these life fusion experiments.

This book has no value.

Roland made his professional judgment and decided to put the books away.

Just as he was putting away his books, he suddenly saw a metal note falling.

"A mutation occurred during directional life fusion. Warriors with basically equal strength can be linked together through the blood soul link. Unless the linked person's life is exhausted, he will not die."

Roland's eyes lit up.

This is good.

As long as he masters the soul-blood linking ability, he can be linked to the lives of Sif and Lisa, so that they can share the damage and benefits.

All in all, this is a good thing.
