"That man?"
Silver withdrew his eyes from the portrait. "Faith, you've come for the sword. You want to know something about its owner, don't you?"
Lolo sat up straight. She had been investigating what had happened to Eluria all these years, but at the same time, she had not given up looking for her father's whereabouts. Although she had gotten the news from Merlin that Karov was no longer in this world, she still wanted to know what had happened to her father after he left home for the last time.
"I'll never forget what I saw that day. That man was the bravest man I've ever seen, but I'm not sure if I should tell others about what I saw." The old man held the teacup. "Lulu has begged me many times, but I've always kept my mouth shut. However, you're her benefactors, and you're carrying the other sword … If possible, can you tell me your relationship with her?"
"He's my father," Lolo said, trying to keep her voice calm, but she could not help but tremble a little.
"I see." The old man sighed. "I can tell you what happened that day, but I think you'd rather see it with your own eyes."
"Seven years ago, I was invited by a friend to the Northern Territory to help him inspect a newly discovered natural mine. I brought this magic crystal with me to record the results of the inspection, but I didn't expect to be separated from my friend. The mine was very deep, and I don't know how far I walked. Just when I thought I would be completely lost, I saw a light not far away. I walked in that direction and came to a small valley. That's where I met your father."
Luo Bu took the magic crystal. This was a type of second-class magic device that could record images. Even ordinary people could use it, but it was expensive. Furthermore, it could only record images for a certain period of time, and could not be used repeatedly. Perhaps it was because of the complicated situation in the mine, the magic crystal that Silver was carrying was of good quality. It was estimated that it would sell for more than a thousand gold coins on the market. Once activated, it could record images of nearly six spells. However, right now, it was completely dark.
The future Supreme Magister Your Honor roughly inspected it and said, "There's no problem with the structure of the magic device. It's just that the magic crystal inside is ruined and the magic power has been used up."
However, Luo Bu did not say the rest of his words. The magic crystal in his hand was not small, and under normal circumstances, it should be able to support a magic crystal to be projected a dozen times. According to Sylph, she did not show it to anyone after she returned, but now that the magic crystal was broken, it was very likely that the loss of mana was caused by other reasons.
It just so happened that he had brought a few new magic crystals with him. After putting them in, he activated the magic crystal.
The first image was in the mine, and it could be seen that Silver was moving. From time to time, she would stop and pick up a few pieces of ore to observe, or sweep the magic crystal across the stone wall of the mine.
Apart from that, the image of a middle-aged nobleman flashed by from time to time. He was probably the friend Sylph was talking about. He was walking at the front with two guards, looking for a path while calling out to Sylph.
However, when Sylph was halfway through, she was attracted by a kind of purple ore. She silently stopped. When she finished recording and looked up, she could no longer see the shadow of the person in front of her.
The image provided by the magic crystal trembled slightly. It could be seen that its owner was also a little nervous at this time. This mine had just been discovered not long ago, and there was no one else in it. Sylph quickly moved forward, and before long, she came to a fork in the road. She did not know which path the middle-aged nobleman had taken, and she wanted to go back the way she came.
Along the way, she had been immersed in investigating, recording the type and quality of the ore. The middle-aged nobleman was completely responsible for leading the way. Sylph had no choice but to bite the bullet and pick a path, hoping to meet the middle-aged nobleman. But unfortunately, she was not lucky. After turning two magic circles, she still could not see the shadow of the middle-aged nobleman.
After all, Sylph was old, and after walking for so long, she had to stop and take a breath. However, the food and supplies were all with the two guards, and Sylph only had half a bag of water and a notebook in her hand. If she dragged on like this, her situation would become very bad. So after resting for a while, Sylph continued on her way.
This time, after walking for about half a magic circle, she saw a light in front of her in a daze.
Lolo's heart was also in her throat, because according to the old man, she saw the man holding the faith in his hand at the place where the light came from.
Rob held the girl's hand, and the warmth from his fingertips made Lolo feel a little less nervous. The girl was actually very conflicted. On one hand, she really wanted to know what happened to her father in the end, but sometimes she would think that maybe not knowing the ending was the best ending, so that she could still keep the last trace of hope in her heart.
Just as she was thinking about this, Sylph also walked into the small valley.
Your Honor, the future Supreme Magus, let out a sound of surprise.
"What's wrong?" Lolo asked.
"This valley is filled with sacred runes. Whoever set this up must have spent a lot of effort."
"Is the temple going to use these sacred runes against my father?" Lolo suddenly became nervous again. "What do these sacred runes do?"
"I don't know. It's hard to tell just from the image. However, it seems to be a summoning formation. But for a summoning formation, the number of runes here is a little too much," Luo Bu said.
In the image, Sylph did not notice the abnormality around her. In her eyes, the small valley was lush with flowers and trees, and the sun was shining brightly. The only thing that made her feel strange was that there was no sound in her ears, not even the sound of insects, let alone the roars of beasts.
But right now, Sylph only wanted to find her friend, so she did not pay attention to this. She continued walking forward. She walked until she reached the center of the valley, and there, she saw an altar.
"Akensser's Raw Stone?" Lolo exclaimed. According to Sylph, Akensser's Raw Stone was extremely rare in the Dawn Continent. Even the Magic Association only had four or five pieces in their collection, but the altar in front of her was completely made of Akensser's Raw Stone, and there were more than a thousand of them.
But Lolo's gaze only lingered on the black stones for a moment before turning to the altar.
