Elizabeth's gaze followed Meg and Amy as they disappeared around the bend. The father and daughter pair gave her a strange feeling. They clearly looked like ordinary people, but for some reason, they gave her a sense of familiarity and danger.
"Elizabeth, what are you thinking about?" At this moment, a middle-aged man, who was also wearing a snow-white robe that looked like it was carved out of frost, pushed open the door, and asked Elizabeth with a smile as she stood by the window.
"Nothing, just two passers-by." Y'lisabet retracted her gaze and looked back at the man with anticipation. "Uncle, you said you found something left behind by Father. Is that true? After the battle with Alex, he went missing for so many years, and there has been no news of him. "
"I accidentally found it at an auction, and I can confirm that it belongs to Big Brother. However, there is a bloodline seal inside, and only you can open it. That's why I sent you a message." The man nodded and stretched out his right hand, and a small ice-blue box appeared in his hand. Then, he flew it toward Elizabeth out of thin air.
A hint of excitement appeared on Elizabeth's cold face. Her hands trembled slightly as she caught the small box. She took a deep breath and gently opened the lid.
In the middle of the box, there was a ring inlaid with a round sapphire jade.
"This is Father's ring!" Elizabeth exclaimed softly. She picked up the ring, and her face was full of excitement. However, a nervous expression soon appeared on her face. "This is Father's favorite space ring, and he always carries it with him. If nothing happened, there's no way he would have lost it. Where did you get this ring?"
"A mercenary picked it up in the wilderness. It was sold at an auction as an ordinary gemstone ring. I just happened to be at the auction with a friend, and I felt Big Brother's aura, so I bought it. Perhaps there are clues to Big Brother's disappearance inside. Open it and take a look." The man nodded slightly, and his expression was also a little serious.
"Alright." Elizabeth nodded, and an ice needle appeared out of thin air. She gently pricked her fingertip, and a drop of bluish-silver blood dripped onto the sapphire. It was instantly absorbed, and a ray of light rose from the ring. A mirror image of a middle-aged man with snow-white hair appeared. He looked at Elizabeth with a smile, and said, "Elizabeth, you're probably the only one who can find this ring. The others probably can't wait for me to die."
"Father …" Elizabeth looked at the man in slightly dirty clothes. The former king of the Frost Dragons, Rankster, had even left his space ring in the wilderness. What happened to him?
"It's very complicated, so I don't want to say too much. However, you can rest assured that I'm not dead yet. I threw the ring away on purpose. You just need to know that there's nothing in the ring, so you don't have to worry too much. No one will do anything to you for an empty ring, except for a fool," Rankster said casually with a hint of mockery.
The image flashed, and the projection disappeared. The ring returned to its original appearance.
"Father!" Elizabeth reached out her hand in a daze, but she couldn't grab anything. She lowered her hand in disappointment.
"Elizabeth, quickly check if there's anything in the ring," Fox said to Elizabeth with a nervous expression.
"It's empty." Elizabeth looked at the ring, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes. However, she didn't show it. Instead, she put the ring back into the box with a disappointed expression.
"It's empty." Fox was also disappointed. He looked at the ring in Elizabeth's hand, and withdrew his gaze. Elizabeth wasn't good at hiding her emotions. He could tell from her expression that there was something in the ring.
"Uncle, can I take this ring as a souvenir?" Y'lisabet looked up at Fox with a sorrowful expression.
"Of course. This is something your father left behind. You can keep it." Fox quickly regained his composure. He nodded, and said, "I have something to do outside the city. It's rare for you to come to Chaos City. Stay for a few more days before you leave."
"Mm-hm." Elizabeth nodded. She kept the little box in her hand, and watched as a bluish-silver light appeared under Fox's feet. He disappeared from the room in the blink of an eye.
