"Wait, wait, wait …" Today's situation was beyond Li Huailin's expectations, causing Li Huailin to be shocked. "So, according to what you're saying, Earl Chittallera didn't trigger the secret treasure and was sent to the Realm of the Gods. Instead, he was captured by the people of the Realm of the Gods?"
"That's exactly what I mean." Marina nodded.
"Why?" Li Huailin asked.
"I don't know."
"In other words, this secret treasure is something that the Celestials are very afraid of. Once it is collected, it will be a threat to the Celestials. That's why the Celestials came to interfere with you. Am I right?" Li Huailin said.
"I think so too." Marina nodded. "That's why I said it's a very dangerous thing."
"Wait, you were just about to say something like that. You said that this thing is a trap." Li Huailin said, "Since you said it's a trap, there must be someone who set it up. This doesn't make sense. Since it's something that's a threat to the Celestials, why would the Celestials use it as a trap? Wouldn't it be terrible if someone really collected it? So, who is the person who set the trap? "
"I don't know." Marina shook her head again and said, "I only know that something terrible will happen after collecting all these things. I'm sure the Divine Race knows what will happen. That's why they tried to stop it from happening. However, there are people who want to make it happen. For example, the notebook you're holding right now. It wasn't written by Earl Chitalera at all, but it records the situation of all the secret treasures. In fact, we have similar experiences."
"Huh? Similar experience? "Li Huailin asked.
"Yes … In fact, although we collected seven secret treasures, these things are very difficult to find. In fact, we didn't have any clue at all in the beginning. However, when we were clueless, something would suddenly appear to remind us. At that time, we didn't even notice it. After thinking about it for a while, we felt that there must be something wrong. That's why I said it's a trap. Someone wants someone to collect these things," Marina said.
"If there's really such a thing, it must be the system god," Li Huailin said casually.
"System God? What kind of god is that? "Marina asked immediately.
"No, I was just joking." Li Huailin said, "You said before that you knew something terrible would happen if these things were collected. How did you know about this? Didn't you not collect them all?"
"That's what happened later," Marina said. "You may not believe it, but Count Chitalera is still alive."
"Oh, you're still alive." Li Huailin nodded.
"You know about it?" Marina asked in surprise. "How did you figure it out?"
Wasn't it because of the mission to find Count Chittallera? However, Li Huailin didn't know how to explain it to Marina, so he asked directly, "Do you know where Count Chittallera is?"
"I don't know," Marina said. "Someone knew, but he doesn't know now."
"Ha? This person is dead? " Li Huailin asked. However, before Marina could answer, Li Huailin suddenly understood. "Wait … it's Anthony?"
"Yes." Marina nodded. "In fact, fourteen years ago, which is one year after Count Chittallera disappeared, Anthony saw Count Chittallera. I didn't see him. I only heard about it from Anthony. After that, Count Chittallera disappeared again. Although I worked in the intelligence department and secretly investigated Count Chittallera's whereabouts, there was no news."
"I see." Li Huailin nodded. "So you heard about what happened later from Count Chittallera, which means that something terrible will happen … Is there any specific content?"
"Yes." Marina nodded. "Do you know? There were adventurers on the mainland a long time ago … "
"You're talking about the Chosen One?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned.
"You even know about this?" Marina said in surprise. "What's the reason for their disappearance?"
"Hehe …" Li Huailin suddenly smiled bitterly. "Don't tell me this has something to do with these treasures."
Seeing that Marlina nodded, Li Huailin suddenly realized that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed. This news was like a bolt from the blue. According to his previous speculation, there was a group of players in this game before, but they disappeared. He really did not understand the reason. Previously, Li Huailin thought that this might be the case. For example, a group of aliens created and played this game. Then, one day, something happened. For example, their planet exploded. Of course, all the players in the game naturally disappeared. However, the situation was a little different now. According to Marina, something happened in the game, which meant that someone collected all the treasures, causing all the Chosen One to disappear. This was not something that happened outside, but inside the game. This … Li Huailin suddenly thought of a very bad situation.
"Why would it be related to this?" Li Huailin asked.
"I don't know. The only person who might know the situation is Count Chittallera, if he's still alive," Marina said. "Anthony doesn't know the specific situation either."
"But he knows where Count Chittallera is?" Li Huailin asked.
"I don't know," Marina replied. Marina replied, "I didn't ask about this again. Besides, he doesn't know now."
"Which means that the first step now is to let Anthony recover his memory …" Li Huailin touched his chin and said.
"What?" Marina was slightly stunned. "Wait, you still want to investigate this matter?"
"Since you said so, of course, I have to investigate a little." Li Huailin said, "Besides, I'm only talking about letting Anthony recover his memory. You look a little strange. Why do you look like you don't want Anthony to recover?"
"Of course not …" Marina said, then looked at Li Huailin's face. "You won't believe me even if I say this."
"Don't lie through your teeth. Why?" Li Huailin asked.
"This is the best state for Anthony," Marina said. "It's better not to let him remember the past. To be honest, I don't want to remember those things if I can …"
"Is his dark history that serious?" Li Huailin facepalmed.
"Duke Aquitaine, I hope you don't investigate. Although you won't be able to find anything, if Anthony regains his memory, the first person to be killed will be you," Marina said.
"In other words, this secret is big enough to kill me. But why would I be afraid? I'm an adventurer," Li Huailin said with a smile.
"…" Marina also remembered that adventurers … wouldn't die, so the threat of death to ordinary people was useless.
"But your position among humans …" Marina said after thinking for a while.
"Then I'll rebel against humans," Li Huailin interrupted. "Look at me. Can't I survive anywhere?"
"…" Marina looked at Li Huailin. "You said you want to rebel so easily. I already knew that you weren't reliable. You don't have any loyalty to the Empire at all. That's why I kept reminding Anthony, but he trusted you so much …"
"You have a problem with that?" Li Huailin shrugged. "Why don't you tell me what's going on? I might be able to help you."
"I won't tell you," Marina said.
"How troublesome. Is my dark history really that serious?" Li Huailin shrugged.
"Also …" Marina said.
"What else?" Li Huailin asked.
"The reward ceremony was just a formality. You must hand the gemstone to Su Lan immediately," Marina said in a threatening tone.
"Huh? What's the big deal … "Just as Li Huailin was about to say that there was no difference, an idea flashed in his mind. He understood. Marina only knew that the Heirloom was a stone. She didn't know what would happen if players touched the Heirloom. In reality, players would obtain the Heirloom after touching it, and the stone would be useless.
Li Huailin smiled. He only wanted the Heirloom, not the stone. So, after a short pause, he said, "No problem."
"You should know how serious this matter is," Marina said in a serious tone. "I don't know what you're thinking, but I definitely won't let you take the gemstone that day. I'll do everything I can to get it back."
"I understand. I definitely won't take that stone away," Li Huailin said with a smile. "Thank you, Your Majesty …"
Marina glared at Li Huailin. Based on the look in her eyes, it was obvious that she didn't believe Li Huailin's words. She was probably still worried that Li Huailin would take the stone away and was prepared to take some defensive measures. After staring at Li Huailin for a while, Marina suddenly turned around and walked out the door. She had no intention of saying goodbye to Li Huailin.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for bringing me so much information." After Marina left, Li Huailin smiled and muttered to himself, "Alright, it seems like we're in big trouble. Let's analyze the situation first."
