Chapter 39 The Royal Treasury
Just as Joshua was fighting with Isreal.
The paladin was walking alone in the forest of the Great Eas Mountains.
It was late at night, but Lorlanda didn't care. He had the kind of personality that he had to do whatever he thought of, and it didn't matter during the day or at night.
The paths in the forest are deep and quiet, with occasional sounds of insects. During the day, the roars of many monsters have long subsided, leaving only the rustling sounds of the shaking sea of trees.
At this time, Lorenda went deep into the Great Eas Mountains to visit his friend's beloved horse, the half-dragon mount named Hei. After everyone explored the secret realm inside the Great Eas Mountains, Joshua asked his mount to guard the time and space passage and immediately set off to the imperial capital. At the same time, he also asked the Paladin to take care of it so that Heiyi would accidentally cause any trouble.
"Although the mount is a little active, it can be considered well-behaved, not much like other dragon beasts."
While walking, Lorenda thought: "At least the mounts of the Dragon Knights in the church are not so obedient. Is it the owner's reason or the quality of the mount itself?"
Perhaps both. After shrugging, the Paladin began to consider other issues: "It's time for me to find a mount. After all, I'm a Paladin, not a Paladin, and it's not convenient to summon the war horses of the heavens."
Just as he was thinking about some future events easily, Lorenda came to the vicinity of the volcano.
The Great Eas Volcano is still the same as before, without any change. As a dormant volcano, it has been silent for four hundred years. If there were no accidents, the next four hundred years should have continued like this.
After finding the entrance and walking down, Loranda gradually felt something was wrong.
"strangeness……"
He murmured to himself: "That guy is the blood of the ancient dragon. Logically speaking, there should be a trace of dragon power, why can't you feel anything?"
It was a little strange now. You must know that Heizai has just awakened and has not learned how to restrain his pressure. How could there be no trace of residual dragon power here?
Maybe I've dived into the depths of the lava layer and played.
There is indeed such a possibility. Thinking of this, Lorenda couldn't help but shake his head, but he didn't say anything, but continued to walk towards the secret volcano.
But when he arrived at the huge lava cave, the Paladin saw a scene that shocked him.
The time and space gate disappeared?!
No, not. Lorenda, who noticed a trace of time and space fluctuations, immediately denied his previous thoughts, and then breathed a sigh of relief. He hurriedly walked forward and followed the black rocky road to the center of the lava pool, looking up at the place where the trace of time and space fluctuations were.
The space-time channel is temporarily closed, and the Paladin confirmed this. He is one of the next generation of pope successors trained by the Seven Gods Church. He is quite familiar with magic. Loranda can see that the space-time gate is temporarily closed because there are elemental storms and other terrifying situations that can stir up time-time fluctuations at the other end of the channel. It is currently temporarily closed. Only when the opposite channel is calmed can it be opened again.
"Just not close."
The big rock fell to the ground, and Lorenda was relieved, but then he looked back and forth, but frowned: "How about black?"
Even if the magical technique was used for reconnaissance, the Paladin did not find traces of the huge dragon horse. There was no black breath under the magma or on the black rock road. Although it was impossible for a place like the lava pool to leave any trace, as a golden-level half-dragon, it could at least leave some unique elements of its own.
But there is nothing here.
“…No…”
At this point, Loranda had to admit that there was only one possibility. The blonde and blue-eyed paladin looked at the still-open space-time gate with an incredible gaze, muttering to himself: "Can you say..."
"Black this guy, it ran over?!"
Imperial capital, royal study room.
Joshua said this after thinking about it.
With a systematic self and experience in previous lives, there is no surprise in this life. It is indeed undoubtedly possible to achieve legends. Although it is a bit arrogant, it is a natural fact.
Under Isreir's order, all the guards were retired and returned to their posts. At the same time, due to the emperor's default attitude, many messages were passed on by servants and guards. For example, the emperor was discussing with him before, and what was his evaluation of that person?
With the Palace of Morley as the center, this news spread like a radius to the entire inner city. As several palace nobles left and visited friends everywhere, the news immediately spread to the residences of various great nobles, including two dukes, several earls, city guards, the guards orders and even the Imperial Capital Church. Not long after, lights that had been extinguished in late night came out of the residences of these great people. Figures flashed behind the windows, as if they were discussing something. Soon after, many servants in plain clothes left the residences and hurried towards other places.
Joshua van Radcliffe.
Although this name was originally very famous, it has now spread throughout the entire empire's high-level noble circle. Some people were disdainful and believed that the warriors were just a countryside, but because of their luck, they were famous for killing a few dragons. But now they immediately left their original views behind and began to discuss in detail the authenticity of the news in Morley's Palace and to look at the Radcliffe family with a cautious look again.
They may have always despised the frontier family that has been guarding the black forest in the northern part of the country. This is a future legendary power, and this weight cannot be described as light. It is a powerful force enough to suppress a country.
Although the outside world has reacted greatly, several people in the study are having a random conversation now.
Although it is a conversation, most of the time it is a unilateral questioning from Nostradamus.
"Is this the power of the inheritance of sages... It took you just a few years to reach this level."
The old mage turned around Joshua with helpless faces. He looked at the warrior's body seriously and the beads hanging on his chest inconspicuously. Nostradamus narrowed his eyes and had a strange expression: "The sky-blue bead... looks inconspicuous, it's just an ordinary sky-blue gem. It's impossible to tell where the inheritance of the power of sages."
“It will be pretty when it works.”
After replying casually, Joshua sighed and said, "Master, Brandon also has a heritage, and he is still your disciple. You can see him, there is no need to bother me all the time."
“It’s different.”
Shaking his head, Nostradamus was about to explain, but Isrel's voice intervened in halfway and explained: "Jothia, the inheritance left by the sages is completely different, and you are even more special."
At this time, the emperor had already sat back on the chair behind the desk. Only at this time did he look less like the overlord of the army, but rather the king who ruled the world: "The sky blue pearl, pure white scepter, double blades of order, and robe of all dharmas. These are four things that can be confirmed according to ancient books, and only four are inherited by sages."
Pure White Scepter... The Pope of the Seven Gods Church, the Scepter in the hands of Eagle.
As soon as he talked about this, Joshua remembered the legendary powerful man who had incarnated. His aura was stronger than the emperor in front of him. He seemed to be about to reach the limit of this world and approaching the realm called Divine Power.
His Majesty the Emperor is still explaining the history of the four sages: "The robe of all things is gone, and the double blades of order in Brandon's hand were found by the legendary wizard four hundred years ago. Kabbala Kaos found in an ancient ruin deep in the endless mountains of the western mountain. The ancient ruin was built to use these two blades to seal several terrifying void monsters. Master Kabbala, who accidentally pulled out the double blades, unsealed the seal, and the few void monsters broke out and completely destroyed the entire ruin.
"These void monsters are incredibly powerful. Even Master Kabbalah, as a legendary wizard, can only exile them into endless turbulent flows of time and space, and cannot kill them. It is no wonder that the people who built the ruins used the weapons of sages to seal them, thus giving up the inheritance in them."
"It is also a lost inheritance... My Sky Blue Pearl is a family-borne thing, but because of the dust for many years, it was not until my hands that I returned to my original form, and no one noticed it before."
Hearing this, Joshua thought, he murmured to himself: "Weapons, accessories, scepters and robes are indeed completely different inheritances. Now it seems that only the inheritance of the pure white scepter in the hands of the Seven Gods Church is the most complete and has never been lost."
"You actually know the Pure White Scepter?"
Isrel looked a little surprised. He stared at Joshua and shook his head with a smile: "It's really a surprise that can bring you all the time."
"In fact, these inheritances left by sages cannot directly bring much power to the holders. Even the pure white scepter is just an item symbolizing the rights of the pope. The most powerful weapon of the church is not it. Although according to literature, there are secrets about the origin of the world hidden in the inheritance of sages, the Seven Gods Church has not studied anything in the past thousand years."
On the side, Nostradamus added that the old wizard was still looking at Joshua, looking very confused: "Because of this, you, whose strength has improved so rapidly, are the exception. Neither your father nor your grandfather have obtained such a profound power of order from the Sky Blue Pearl like you. This is really perfect... Could it be that a saint was reincarnated?"
This is a very reasonable guess. Even Brandon and His Majesty the Emperor nodded. A person who can fight against a legendary strong man under twenty-five years old is a bit extraordinary no matter how he thinks.
That's because I traveled through time, and I still have a system. The reason why I advanced quickly is because I killed at least tens of thousands of gods in another world, and it has nothing to do with reincarnation!
Joshua frowned. He felt that the topic had to be stopped, but coincidentally, just as the warrior spoke and was about to change the topic, Isrell suddenly remembered something.
"... Maybe I can't talk much today. Joshua, the sudden appearance of the demon and the exchange with you, have made me forget one very important thing, but before that, I will give you some rewards."
The emperor's expression suddenly became a little awe-inspiring. He slowly stood up and said seriously: "You have keenly noticed the cultists lurking in the imperial capital, killed the demons, saved thousands of lives, and prevented the empire from losing face in front of the ambassadors of various countries. Logically speaking, I should give you a heavy reward in person, but now I have some important things to do, so I can only give it a compromise."
After thinking for a while, Isrel said decisively: "That's it, let Teacher Nostradamus take you to the royal treasure house and get the treasure you want."
