Mysterious journey

sparkling water

This name seems to bring back some memories deep in the brain.

Garen felt a sharp pain in his head, as if some scenes were flashing through his mind.

Those images were distant and blurry, as if they were not his human memories at all.

"It's the genetic information of Nine-headed Dragon." He walked to the side and sat down slowly under the plum blossom bush.

The memory of Kuzuryu still interferes with his state from time to time, but it is much less severe than before. It only hurts occasionally.

Garen stretched out his hand to press the cold stone table in front of him. The cold stone table was extremely smooth, and its hard texture gave him the feeling of actually touching a real entity.

I don't know how long it took, but the pain finally eased.

Garen put down his hands and took a deep breath.

"The Shining Water has appeared. It seems that the collapse of the royal alliance is getting closer and closer. The Shining Water has the effect of promoting the evolution of low-level totem masters and extremely powerful healing effects, but the output is also surprisingly low. In the original history, Kewei Tan has one sparkling pool, Zenia has two, Enite has one, and there are three scattered in other areas. This thing is the real trigger for the collapse of the Royal Alliance."

Historically, shining water had powerful special effects. Although one pool could only produce enough for ten people a year, and it only had an evolutionary effect on low-level totem masters, this has also triggered conflicts among many forces. internal conflicts between.

Because of the rampant monsters, there are divisions within the royal alliance. The ability of the shining water has led to internal strife. Perhaps there is also the conspiracy of the Black Sky Society, but it is undeniable that most of it is because the alliance itself is not strong enough.

And it was at this time that Chania's side also experienced drastic changes because of the Shining Water. The Evil God King's totem, which was defeated and suppressed by the current King of Shannia, became a mutilated state. Under the treatment of shining water, his injuries actually tended to heal.

The King of Zennia, who pursued absolute power, challenged masters everywhere, and even challenged the Evil God Totem at home. Originally, the Evil God King did not pay attention to him, but his speed of becoming stronger was too fast.

By the time the Evil God King realized something was wrong, it was already too late. King Shannia's talent was terrifying and had reached an extremely powerful level. He and the Evil God King had been fighting each other for hundreds of years, and finally he severely wounded the Evil God King in one opportunity, and obtained opportunities to stabilize the state and develop the country.

However, due to the management of the evil gods for thousands of years, the evil god sect's base camp is strong, and the two sides barely maintain a balance.

The emergence of the Shining Water accelerated the recovery of the Evil God King, and a new internal war in Shannia was about to begin again.

Garen thought carefully. Cowaitan now exists in name only, and only a small area around the imperial capital is left. It can be regarded as a heavy casualty. Next came Chania, and finally Ennit.

Channia is different from Kuwaitan. The power of the evil cult and the royal family are the top terrifying existences. Black Sky Society will not rashly mess with this behemoth when the ghost gate has not awakened.

This time the shining water appeared, and Garen realized that this was a good opportunity.

The importance of shining water to others is far less than that to the evil god king. Its demand for shining water is very huge. As long as i occupies a pool, I can use it as a basis to bargain with the evil god sect and obtain benefits. .

Moreover, Garen vaguely felt that the shining water seemed to be helpful in restoring the memory of Nine-Headed Dragon. The headache just now came without warning, and it was definitely not without reason.

Garen tapped his fingers lightly on the stone table. Thinking about how to get more benefits for yourself and develop your own strength before the royal family collapses. Not to mention surviving the ghost gate, at least we must ensure our own safety.

call..

He took a long breath and was about to get up and go back to the palace, when suddenly he saw someone sitting next to him out of the corner of his eye.

It's a child.

He was holding a red plum in his hand, and he was rubbing the branches with both hands, turning them around, having a great time.

"What are you doing here?" Garen was almost used to the child's elusiveness.

"I have nothing to do... I happened to make some new discoveries, so I came over." The child replied boredly.

"New discovery?"

"Yes, you must remember to protect me." The child said with a smile.

Garen was speechless. This kid was not doing his job properly. He was just wandering around and having fun. His strength was mysterious, so what kind of protection did he need? Seeing that he didn't want to talk for the time being, he didn't ask any more questions.

He got up and walked towards the inner hall. He had lunch with Lala and Bai Lan who came to hang out, and chatted for a while. In the afternoon, news came back about the situation of the Sparkling Water Mine.

"So, although the mine is now occupied, half of the shining water has been taken away?" Sitting in a high position, Garen frowned and looked at the peripheral guards of Kurosawa Palace reporting below.

"Yes, the two elders of Wuguang Kongqin have already sent out to pursue him. Elder Tiannu and Elder Blizzard are guarding the shining pool." The guard quickly replied.

Garen glanced at the masters sitting on both sides of the hall.

Ephesus still looked indifferent and put the sword on her knees. She said nothing and closed her eyes slightly. She seemed to be recuperating and did not listen to the guard's report at all.

Master Anjiade of the Seven Nights Pagoda was yawning repeatedly, his eyes were full of dark circles, as if he hadn't slept for an unknown amount of time.

Below are the director of Blackpool Palace, Lara, the family guard chiefs Marcelan and Adni, and the three disciples of Ephesus from Silver Palace. There is also Master Kelian who just arrived from the Technology Hall.

Garen frowned and looked at Master Kelian.

"Master, over there at the Technical Hall"

Kelian nodded and stood up. "We can send a workshop master to rush over with the latest spell array. The Thorns of Thorns spell array we are currently developing is based on the original palace illusion array, modified and simplified. It is at the second-type level and is alert. The range is two kilometers in diameter.”

"Type 2 magic array?" Garen nodded, "It's enough as a warning magic array, and it's just a carry-on prop, but what if you want a high-level magic array?"

Colin shook his head.

"I'm sorry, Palace Master. Spell formations of type 2 or above require a relatively large amount of rare resources, and the layout workshop requires no less than ten masters. With our current strength in the technical hall, the research progress will be seriously affected. "

"Then forget it." Garen shook his head.

"Palace Master, aren't there three large sets of spiritual light formations in the separate spell array library?" Kelian reminded.

Garen also remembered that the most valuable and practical ones in the palace treasury were these three large-scale aura formations, with a range of more than ten kilometers in diameter, and their power could block the entry of all totem masters below the aura level. It is indeed a very good defensive array. These three sets of items are also the most valuable items in the entire treasure house, apart from the secret treasures brought out by Garen himself.

"Of the three sets of formations, the Ten-turn Ring is intended to be deployed throughout the palace area." Kelian explained, "The other two sets are to be used to lay out the formations within the formation and protect the technical palace and the inner palace of residence. There is also a set that can be used to guard the shining pool."

Garen nodded thoughtfully.

"This is pretty good."

Klinean continued.

"Actually, if we can get more helpers and resources, the strength of our Technology Hall will be greatly improved. I heard that Ennit's Master Ravel has great attainments in magic formations." He started to give Garen The list has been called to attract people.

After all, he is not a person who specializes in the study of magic formations, and his achievements in this area are not strong.

"Ennit's Ravel?" Gallon stroked the stubble on his chin, "Lala, go to the waiter to contact and invite this master."

"But the situation in Ennit is very stable now, and the master is a national treasure. I guess the success rate is very low." Lara explained.

"It doesn't matter, just leave a seed." Garen said calmly, and then he looked towards Marsilan. "How are my disciples doing now?"

Marsilan stood up and answered respectfully.

"The three disciples have already entered the first level, and now I have passed on the true skills of the second level. The remaining disciples have also been recorded and rewarded according to the time of entry."

The conditions in the palace area where the disciples lived were very difficult, and this was also to hone their will. They ate and drank special nutritious meals, which were rich in nutrients, but the taste was terrible.

Those who can eat it are all geniuses with taste.

In order to blend the taste to an indescribable level, Garen also specially asked Lala to recruit chefs from the entire imperial capital who could cook the most unpalatable meals without compromising nutrition.

The sleeping environment is also the hardest stone bed, and there are only ten quilts. Whoever ranks higher is entitled to enjoy it.

Now the progress of the practice has come out. According to the records, only those with higher rankings are eligible to receive treatment to improve their diet, and can barely get three meals that are not too difficult to eat. Of course, in order to get a nutritious meal with ordinary taste, they need more efforts.

Maybe some people have tried not eating, but when they are locked up in the palace and unable to go out, if they don't eat these things, they can only starve alive. Moreover, such a nutritious meal is balanced and has a slight improvement effect on physical fitness. People who eat it will gradually progress faster than the average person.

Garen was quite satisfied with the progress of the three master disciples. As for the remaining disciples, he didn't care much. Only the top rankings deserved his attention. And the speed of the first level does not mean anything. The first level of Black Water True Skill is the easiest, but the second level is different. To reach the second level, you need to carry out anti-hit training, special medicine, and personal physique. With perseverance and understanding, in a short period of time, two or three months, there is no need to think about someone making a breakthrough. The further you get to the back, the more difficult it becomes to break through. The second level is a threshold. Those who can break through have good qualifications. Those who cannot break through may be delayed for more than ten years.

Garen thought for a moment.

"How is the recruitment situation of peripheral totem masters now?"

"Two aura-level totem masters have already come here. There are fifteen other totem masters of the third type, and a few of the second type." Lara replied.

"Type 2 is sent to maintain the operation of the magic array in the palace area. Type 3 is dispersed into the escort team, temporarily led by Edney and Marcelan. After a month of adaptation, an internal ranking competition will be held. The one with the strongest strength will automatically become the leader of the escort team. ."

The palace area is divided into two male and female escort teams, which are responsible for the security of some public areas. Due to lack of manpower, Marcelan and Edney are temporarily in charge. However, they are the captains of the family guards after all and have their own management affairs. The Terry Jones family Nowadays, their power is getting bigger and bigger, their assets are getting more and more, and they are also a little in a hurry.

So Garen gave them the right to promote people, and after promoting a few trusted experts, they finally felt a little more relaxed.

"What about the two spiritual totem masters?" Lara asked.

"Let them be temporarily responsible for the daily life management of the elders in the palace area. Set up a separate elders hall management department and slowly recruit people to expand it in the future."
