Lord of the North

"Then why is he...a soul?"

Although Jason saw that something was wrong with Gilbert later, he didn't think about it. Now after Michaels reminded him, he quickly guessed the reason for this phenomenon.

He had really seen the existence of souls, and the soul of the old dragon was playing with the stone carving that he had snatched from the Heshouhui in his basement.

According to him, that stone carving is not simple, it should be the symbol of an ancient country where a certain vanished race lived, and the words engraved on it are the creed and important records of the royal family of that ancient country.

However, due to the passage of time, some of the above words have gradually lost their shape, so he needs a period of time to repair and translate.

Thinking of the dragon soul, Jason remembered an item he had drawn in a lottery before, which might be of some use to him.

"Strictly speaking, it's not a soul, it might just be an evil thought."

Michaels corrected, but he was not particularly sure, but this answer still shook Jason's heart. A single evil thought can erode the mind of a great knight, and even replace it in the end!

It is hard for him to imagine what kind of existence the master of this evil thought is. Is he really the origin and creator of this world as he himself said?

"Or it should be caused by the filthy blood left behind. The power of this ancient existence is really beyond our imagination."

Michaels sighed and said with some regret, but even this kind of existence disappeared silently in the long river of history.

There are not many records left, and that piece of history is a cloud of fog, so it is ridiculous to say that Star Clan has pursued the true meaning of life and eternity for countless years.

"It's a pity that he escaped, and now it's another headache." Jason pinched his eyebrows and said with some distress.

"With my lord's talent and the strength of my subordinates, I will have the opportunity to compete with him in the future." Michaels smiled meaningfully.

"Yeah, thanks for your good words." Because he was still worried about Gilbert's escape, Jason didn't see his meaningful smile.

"Let the guard of Lai'an City come to see me tomorrow, I have some things to tell."

The soldiers came to block the water and cover it with earth. Jason, who had figured this out, no longer thought about what happened after the confrontation with Gilbert in the future, but how to re-plan Laian Port.

In his opinion, this river port is far more important than this great enemy who does not know whether it can really develop.

"In addition, the intelligence system of the black crow was ordered to let them pay close attention to some incidents of large-scale disappearances of people. Once such things are discovered, they will send back information immediately."

Gilbert's ability has been exposed in that underground black market, and he can only absorb their blood by massacring creatures if he wants to recover from his injuries as soon as possible.

This can also explain the disappearances and inexplicable deaths in some villages in the north.

Although it's a bit far-fetched, Black Crow found Gilbert's trail when this incident occurred in the White Sword Province before, and then similar things happened in the Yero Province, and then Jason directly ran into him here again. And his ability is so weird, it's hard not to doubt him now.

"Yes, my lord." Hassan replied respectfully, then turned and left to give the order.

The three of them besieged and killed one person at the same time, but they failed to take it down. Instead, Gilbert saw the opportunity to injure one person, and then ran away, which made him really suffocated.

At this moment, Beowulf, who is far away in the northern ice field, has wiped out all the barbarian tribes that exist near the outposts.

No less than a thousand barbarian slaves were captured. These slaves were wearing heavy shackles to prevent them from rioting. After all, thousands of barbarians would cause major losses to the outpost even if they had no weapons.

In addition, the construction of the outpost fortress is about to be completed. A magnificent building of more than ten meters made of huge stone bricks stands proudly in the cold wind, and some slaves are constantly improving and strengthening its city wall.

Moreover, Beowulf was pleasantly surprised to find that there was actually a small vein of silver mine more than 40 kilometers west of the outpost fortress.

But he is also facing another problem now, that is, when a team of more than a dozen scouts explored to the east, they discovered an ancient ruin on the ground.

When they were exploring, they were attacked by unknown creatures. Of the fourteen people, only six came back alive, and all six of them were seriously injured.

According to the scouts, they did not explore the ruins in depth, but were attacked by a half-human, half-beast monster on the periphery, and when they fled to the outside of the ruins, they looked back and found that in their sight, this There are hundreds of monsters!

Fortunately, after they left the ruins, the monsters didn't continue to chase them, otherwise none of the six of them would survive.

It's just that Beowulf's headache is that this relic does not exist on the map marked by the mage, which means he knows nothing about it, but the monsters inside are also a trouble for the outpost and threats.

So Beowulf took his three hundred guards and found the location of the ruins under the leadership of those scouts.

What surprised them was that this relic did not exist!

At that time, several commanders under Beowulf misunderstood that these scouts lied about the intelligence.

But after they rested for a night, they discovered in horror the next morning that a huge group of ruins just appeared in front of them out of thin air.

Moreover, Beowulf keenly discovered that in the dark corner of the ruins, dozens of pairs of greedy and fearful eyes were staring at hundreds of them.

But they seem to have some concerns, and they are still unwilling to step out of the scope of the ruins.

"There's a weirdness everywhere here, let everyone be careful, and what about the soldiers who watched the night last night? Let them come here to meet me." Beowulf observed here for a while, a little undecided.

After a while, fifty soldiers came before Beowulf.

"Did you notice how this ruin came to be last night?" asked Beowulf.

"My lord, we don't know when it appeared. It seems that when the sun shines here. It suddenly appeared without warning."

The little leader of this team explained nervously that he was really afraid that Beowulf would misunderstand that they had neglected their duties last night and did not complete the task with all their heart.
