Chapter 591 Are you my master?
Deep underground in the palace,
Dalia pushed open the door and walked into this tightly protected room, hanging the oil lamp in her hand on the wall nearby.
The faint yellow light dispelled the darkness around the girl's body, but it was unable to illuminate the entire room. It was still pitch black outside the scope of the light.
In this deep room, darkness silently envelopes every inch of space like a silent guardian. The dim lights seemed like the farthest stars in the night sky, but despite their efforts, they could only barely outline a corner of the room, while the rest was still immersed in boundless darkness, appearing both mysterious and profound.
The room is vast and vast, as if it can swallow up all sound and light, making people involuntarily feel a sense of insignificance and loneliness. Who would have known that there is such a mysterious place under the palace.
The walls around the room were as smooth as mirrors. There were no paintings or sculptures, just a monotonous and cold plane, reflecting the light and shadow of the weak lights, but further accentuating the emptiness and loneliness of the space. These walls seem to cut off all the noise from the outside world, making this place an isolated and independent world.
The floor of the entire room is a huge blue slate. Unlike the walls of the room, the surface of the blue slate is not completely smooth. The wind and frost of the years have left mottled marks on it, and some places have fallen into deep darkness. Record As time passes by.
But the most eye-catching thing about this room is the huge and complicated magic circle imprinted on the bluestone.
It occupies most of the area of the stone slab, with intricate patterns, like the tangled tree roots in nature, and like the intertwined star trails in the night sky. It appears chaotic and disorderly, but also contains some indescribable harmony and beauty.
Under the illumination of the lights, each formation emits a faint fluorescent light. Although it is weak, it outlines a magnificent and mysterious picture in the darkness, making people feel awe of this ancient power.
In front of Dalia's eyes, this room was like a secret realm forgotten by time, quietly waiting for someone who could decipher its secrets.
"Alas~"
Dalia sighed softly and looked at the room in front of her with a heavy heart.
This basement is the biggest secret of the entire palace, or the entire Kingdom of Cardiff.
Outside this basement, there are all kinds of magical protective barriers and traps left over from countless years ago. It is the most tightly protected place in the palace, much stricter than Queen Dalia's bedroom.
Touching the patterns of the huge magic array on the bluestone, Dalia felt a rough feeling on her hands, and murmured to herself:
"Is this the door our ancestors passed through when they came here countless years ago?"
"Is the real world of Gaia really that vast and filled with so many powerful people?"
Dalia didn't know the answer to the question. These were the most critical secrets that were not recorded in any documents but were passed down orally from each king.
Perhaps it is for this reason that, except for the most critical information, which has been passed down for countless years, most of the information has been blurred or lost.
Dalia only knew that the only way to leave the world they lived in was the huge magic circle at her feet.
Although Dalia is also a mage professional, there is no way to activate the magic circle in front of her.
According to the records left by our ancestors, only those who can independently open this magic circle can be qualified to go to the world of Gaia.
Dalia learned from her father that the royal family of the Kingdom of Cardiff seemed to have come to this small world where the Kingdom of Cardiff is located from the world of Gaia to avoid disaster.
Without enough strength, going to the world of Gaia is just a delusion.
If you can't open this teleportation circle alone, you can only stay in the small world of this safe haven.
However, this safe haven seems to be unstable now.
Dalia couldn't help but feel a little headache when she thought about the quarrel between the ministers in the palace just now.
The Duke of Pao they call is the guardian duke in the southern part of the Kingdom of Cardiff, and one of the most powerful people in the Kingdom of Cardiff.
Because the Burren Mountains in the south of the kingdom have veins of various rare magic metals and magic gems, but also because the concentration of magic in the Burren Mountains is quite high, it also breeds a large number of magical beasts.
In order to resist the wave of monsters in the Brun Mountains, the southern part of the kingdom has been the most troublesome area for many years.
However, after Duke Pao appeared, this situation changed greatly.
Julian Pao, the new head of the Pao Duke family, is quite powerful. Although he is only forty years old, he is almost the strongest person in the entire Cardiff Kingdom.
In addition, the Duke of Pao is also quite sophisticated in his methods.
On the one hand, using the development of magic metal and gemstone veins in the Burren Mountains as a starting point, most of the noble families in the southern part of the kingdom were brought together to form a coalition to jointly deal with the wave of monsters in the mountains.
On the other hand, he asked the Cardiff royal family for help, while secretly gathering strength in the mountains.
When the situation in the southern part of the kingdom was completely stabilized and the monsters in the Brun Mountains could no longer pose a threat, the kingdom suddenly discovered that Duke Pao's power had become quite powerful and even threatened the rule of the kingdom.
The nobles in the southern part of the kingdom had benefited a lot from their previous cooperation with Duke Pao, and defeating the wave of monsters in the Brun Mountains had brought Duke Pao a lot of prestige, so they all gathered at Duke Pao. around.
In a sense, the Duke of Pao is already more prestigious than the Cardiff royal family in the southern part of the kingdom.
Therefore, the Cardiff royal family has noticed the problem of Duke Pao, but because Duke Pao still maintains a clear respect for the royal family and is worried that attacking him at will will cause turmoil in the kingdom, the royal family also took Pao for a short time. The Duke had no choice.
Originally, the Cardiff royal family was already preparing a plan against Duke Pao, but at this critical moment, His Majesty the previous King and Dalia's father suddenly died of a serious illness.
After Dalia succeeded to the throne and stabilized the situation in the royal capital, Duke Pao showed his fangs at this time.
Not only did he deploy his troops in a sensitive area facing the kingdom, he also made rude remarks when facing the kingdom's messenger, saying that he wanted to marry Dalia.
This is also why those ministers were so angry just now.
In response to this, Dalia was angry and also felt a little tired.
If possible, she did not want to become Her Majesty the Queen of the Kingdom of Cardiff, but to be a simple mage apprentice. Being immersed in magic research was the happiest thing for her.
But the former king only had one child, and she could only inherit the entire Kingdom of Cardiff.
Although there has never been a queen in the Cardiff Kingdom, Dalia is the first to face such a bad situation.
Ever since Dalia heard about this secret basement called "The Gate of the World" from the old king, her expectations for the so-called Gaia world have not dissipated.
But for so many days, no matter how hard she tried, she could not successfully activate this huge magic circle.
Even so, Dalia would often come here to rest for a while when she was upset.
Dalia has hardly had a good rest since becoming the Queen of Cardiff Kingdom, and more and more things are appearing in front of her waiting for her to deal with.
These days are so boring.
Dalia rubbed her temples and then looked at the huge magic circle in front of her.
She sat on the ground, stroking the lines of the magic array with her right hand, and the magic power in her body slowly flowed into the magic array.
With the injection of Dalia's magic power, the patterns of the magic array under his hands became slightly brighter.
This is not that the magic circle has been activated. Dalia, who has tried many times, understands that this is still far from activating the entire magic circle.
She is now just activating the magic circle by injecting magic power, and at the same time, she is constantly exploring the magic circle, trying to figure it out as quickly as possible. If you can open this teleportation circle, you can enter a wider world, right?
Dalia looked at the magic circle in front of her and smiled to herself.
Am I avoiding responsibility?
Just when Dalia was about to calm down and study the magic circle in front of her, a sudden change occurred.
boom!
As an inexplicable roar sounded, the entire magic circle seemed to be awakened, suddenly brightening, illuminating every corner of the room.
That light was not the light of an ordinary lamp, but carried an indescribable magic power, scorching and dazzling, as if it could penetrate all darkness and fog. Every carefully carved pattern appears lifelike under the illumination of this light. They are no longer static patterns, but seem to be alive, flowing with terrifying and powerful magic.
This magic power surged wildly in the magic circle, like raging waves or a violent storm, making the air in the entire room tremble. There was a palpitating atmosphere in the air, which was the shock brought by the magical power.
Dalia stood up in shock and quickly took a few steps back to look at the magic circle that suddenly came to life.
What is going on?
Did I accidentally activate this magic circle?
Dalia quickly denied this speculation, because the terrifying magic power emanating from the magic circle in front of her was beyond her reach.
The terrifying aura emanating from the teleportation circle made Dalia feel as if she was facing a towering mountain, and she was unable to think of any resistance at all.
As a blazing white light lit up, Dalia couldn't help but close her eyes.
The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to Liujiu Book Bar to read it!
After a moment, she felt the light dissipate, and then she opened her eyes and looked forward cautiously.
This is the biggest secret of the Kingdom of Cardiff, and there cannot be any surprises.
Right in front of Dalia's eyes, in the center of the entire huge magic circle, a handsome young man suddenly appeared.
The neat short black hair set off the handsome face, making Dalia feel like she was at a noble party in the royal capital and saw a handsome and elegant noble inviting her to dance with her.
The black-haired boy also looked at Dalia, stretched out his hand to her and said:
"Are you my master?"
"Huh?"
Dalia reached out her hand subconsciously and then realized what she was doing.
"Who are you?"
Facing the girl's inquiry, Li Si took back his hand with some regret.
He still wanted to play a pretend game, but he quickly came to his senses when he saw the girl in front of him.
Li Si's eyes stayed on Dalia for a moment, and he almost sensed the girl's strength.
He is almost a gold-level mage, but his aura is much weaker than that of an average gold-level mage.
But in the small world owned by that fallen kingdom, having this kind of strength is pretty good.
When Li Si was wandering around the holy city of Armandu of the Church of the God of War, he got a ruby brooch at the adventurer's market. Later he found out that it was a key to the small world.
It just so happened that Li Si was planning to break through to the legendary level. His legendary level breakthrough mission was [Destroy the Army with One Man], which required defeating an army of extraordinary beings. Li Si thought of this.
A small world that has been passed down for a long time has the inheritance of the ancient human kingdom. It is very likely that there is a ready-made army of extraordinary people within it.
The door to the small world corresponding to the key is very close to Li Si. Li Si definitely can't leave a very valuable small world alone.
The most important thing is that this small world has been closed for a long time. Li Si does not have to worry about interference from external forces. If he can complete the breakthrough mission, it will be safe to break through the legend in this small world.
Of course, Li Si was also prepared that there would be no extraordinary army in the small world.
If it doesn't work, return to the Kingdom of Fes to find the target, or wait seven days to redraw the mission.
"My name is Li Si, an outsider."
Li Si looked at Dalia in front of him and said with a smile.
Looking at Dalia's luxurious clothes, she must be a noble in this world, right?
"Outsiders?"
"Are you from the world of Gaia?"
When Dalia heard this, she thought of something and asked Li Si quickly.
"Knowing the world of Gaia, it seems that the inheritance has not been cut off."
Facing Li Si's straightforward answer, Dalia was slightly happy, but she did not relax her vigilance.
Fortunately, this teleportation circle can really be opened, which means that she really has a chance to go to the so-called Gaia world.
What she was afraid of was not knowing whether Li Si in front of her was an enemy or a friend. If she could activate the teleportation circle that she couldn't activate despite all her efforts, the opponent would definitely be stronger than her.
Taking a step back slightly, taking out the staff and holding it in her hand, Dalia looked at Li Si in front of her, thinking about how to ask.
"Don't be so vigilant."
Li Si watched the girl put on a fighting stance, shook her head and said with a smile:
"It seems that your status is not low. Can you tell me if there is any legendary crown prince here?"
legend?
Listening to Li Si's words, Dalia was a little confused. Is it an existence comparable to gods recorded in the classics?
I heard that even in the world of Gaia, His Majesty the Legend is an absolute powerhouse. How could this be possible in a small world like the Kingdom of Cardiff?
Dalia is even sure that there has never been a legendary powerhouse since the ancestors entered this small world, otherwise this teleportation circle would have been opened long ago.
Looking at Dalia's look, Li Si understood.
"If there were no legend."
Li Si looked at Dalia, smiled like a villain and said:
"Then this little world is mine!"
