Rebirth of the strongest lord system

Chapter 87 Mysterious Dungeon

It is not a reasonable excuse to go back to the imperial capital to report on your duties. When there is a war on the border, the lord has the responsibility to guard the land, and the kings of all dynasties have never recalled the lord involved in the war. This is not in the interests of the empire.

However, the king chose to summon Du Lin. If Du Lin's request to return to the capital was barely reasonable, then it would be abnormal for the border lord to take the initiative to recall the border lord when the war is already so fierce, unless it is to In the case of dismissal, but at that time the next development step will always be the lord's rebellion. The so-called recall of the imperial capital is nothing more than forcing the lord who has already wanted to leave the empire to jump out of his own accord.

Therefore, when Lauder learned of this edict, his face turned blue, and he hurriedly came to the study to find Du Lin, "My lord, what should we do? We are dedicated to guarding the territory, how could such a thing happen?" He I had doubts in my heart, but I couldn't believe that the king was the kind of person who coveted the interests of the Duck family.

Du Lin is preparing to return to the imperial capital in the study. There are many affairs in the territory. She will return to the imperial capital this time with an uncertain date. Naturally, she has to arrange everything before she can rest assured.

"Don't worry, I am confident that I have the ability to come back, you just need to guard the Great Rift Valley." She wanted to convey her confidence to Lauder.

"My lord, please rest assured! With Lauder alive, the Great Rift Valley will always belong to the Duck family." Lauder's words seemed to weigh a thousand catties, with a strong sense of determination.

She laughed instead, "Don't worry, the king may not do anything to me. Even if it really gets to the point where I can't control it, I still have mystic skills. Besides, our current position is very delicate."

The Great Rift Valley seems to be in a disadvantageous situation. Facing the attack of the undead, if the empire behind it is not good for the Great Rift Valley, it will be attacked by the enemy.But she didn't think so. The existence of the undead was also a good thing, and it was a bargaining chip to threaten the empire so that they would not dare to act rashly.

The empire needs someone on the front line to constantly consume the power of the undead. Naturally, it is easy to refuse to destroy the Great Wall. What's more, even though she can't do the thing of letting the undead invade the interior, it doesn't mean that others don't think so, even if they don't want her Also let them think that this possibility is very useful, and with the undead, she has a choice.

Not to mention that human beings cannot cooperate with the undead. There are many things that lead the enemy to die together when life and death are alive. As for the innocent people who are implicated, there are many people in the world who think that I don’t care about the flood after I die.As long as she really lets go, and when the time comes to open the road leading to the hinterland of the empire in the Great Rift Valley, the king's life will not be so easy.

The king is not that stupid for a younger sister who is already married and has a heart for outsiders, and she believes that the Templar family will not be able to pay more to impress the king. Of course, this guess cannot be absolute, but there is a [-]% chance grasp.

Furthermore, even if the worst happens, she is not someone who will be caught without a fight.

The word subtle made Lauder's face turn pale, and then he turned paler. His shoulders trembled for a while before he raised his head as if he had made a huge determination, and looked straight at Du Lin, "Please send [-] units of top-quality magic crystals to arrange the dungeon." , I will leave after I set up the soul projections of adults and dungeons."

Du Lin was secretly taken aback, but then she was quite moved in her heart.Soul projection is the simplest and most reliable soul connection magic. Its only function is to connect the soul imprint of a life to a "mold". As long as the magic power of the mold is sufficient, the connection between the two can continue to run. Once this If the life dies, the corresponding mold will also emit a specific signal, usually the goods are exploded and destroyed. After all, this means that the life connected to it has died. Lauder directly asked for [-] top-grade magic crystals. I'm afraid it's going to be a trigger bomb. Once she dies, the bomb will also explode, but what is that dungeon?
Thinking of this, she also asked, "Dungeon?" She had never heard of the existence of this dungeon, and if she guessed right, Lauder wanted to put measures on her to deter outsiders, then this Dungeons loaded with bombs should be very important to the empire.

"My lord, please follow me." Lauder turned and went out without explaining.

Du Lin followed Lauder, and sighed as she watched the old butler's hunched vest. Lauder's character was actually not suitable for her current situation, and this state of constant turmoil hit him hard.

Lauder led the way, without saying a word, the atmosphere could be dull, until the two came all the way to the basement of the castle.

The basement of the castle has been abandoned for many years. Although it is well-maintained inside, there is also a damp smell of poor ventilation. Du Lin glanced at the magic circle on the door that had stopped working, and knew the source of the smell. It turned out that the magic circle responsible for ventilation It has been out of use for many years due to running out of mana.

The basement of the castle has three floors, which is also the setting of ordinary noble castles. Generally speaking, the bottom floor is where the family coffin is placed, but because the Dark family is a necromancer, the funeral habits are slightly different. Instead of storing the coffin in the basement of the home, the coffin is simply buried in the ground and left to decay naturally.

Lauder took Du Lin all the way to the vacant third floor, and went all the way to the end. With the light in Lauder's hand, Du Lin saw a stone platform at the end, and there was a coffin on it.

She couldn't help showing some surprise, "There are still people in the family living here."

Lauder put the lamp on the lamp stand, looked at the coffin with complicated eyes, "My lord, I didn't want to tell you about this at first, because the ancestors of the Dark family didn't want this to be passed down. When I was young, Everyone in the family thinks that the castle only has two floors, and the Dark family really doesn't need a third floor..."

Lauder recounted what happened back then, with disappointment in his tone.

When Lauder was a child, he was a very naughty and mischievous child. In comparison, the old Baron Duck, who was still a young master at that time, was an honest and well-behaved child. Among the people, Lauder has always been the leader. The mischievous Lauder took the young master to explore around the castle until he accidentally discovered the third underground floor of the castle.

The two naturally discovered the coffin, but at that time there was also a letter left by Dake's ancestors to future generations.From the letters, they learned that the owner of the coffin was a close friend of the ancestors of the Duck family, but because he committed a felony, he fled everywhere. Later, when he was old and exhausted, he came to seek refuge with his friends.

This close friend is the god of the earth system. Back then, he had been hiding in the third basement floor where the Dake family was never useful but most people would not want to come in. After he died, the coffin was placed here.

The reason why the ancestors of the Dak family did not tell outsiders, and even the descendants, was that the crime committed by the god of law was really serious at that time, but he left a letter saying that when the descendants were able to discover this place, it should be the magic he set It should have been hundreds of years since the array energy was exhausted, and no one will pursue what happened back then. I hope that the descendants who discover it can send the coffin of the Fashen to the church for storage according to the last wish of a believer.

When Du Lin heard this, she still didn't understand the purpose of Lauder bringing him here, but she knew that Lauder would not sell out, so these things must be important and need to be explained in advance.

But she still asked: "Why didn't you do it back then." With the character of her adoptive father, she would be very enthusiastic to fulfill the last wish of this unknown Dharma god.

Lauder's eyes darkened again, "My lord thought about it back then, but we don't have a cathedral here, and my lord wanted to send him to a cathedral because he hadn't fulfilled his wish for many years. I am no longer rich, and if I want to travel long distances to the cathedral, I need to stop by the way, so I delayed it." After that, he looked at Du Lin, "Later, I just became a professional, so I wanted to go outside for some experience. , I left home to be a mercenary, but later I found out that someone deliberately approached me to test me, secretly inquiring about some things about the ancestors of the family, especially his friend of the Fashen, so after I came back, I would never Let the old man mention anything about this Dharma God, and even the cellar is sealed as before."

Du Lin was keenly aware of Lauder's serious and veiled grief when he was talking about someone asking him for information, and she had a rough guess in her heart. To be able to inquire about such confidential information, naturally the person who deliberately approached him had a very close relationship with Lauder. After getting closer, Lauder realized that the person approached him deliberately to spy on him. No matter who that person was, it should have hurt Lauder's heart.

Lauder's eyes gradually became sharper, "The ancestors of the Dake family treated the three underground floors with special rocks from Iron Wall Mountain for safety, so as long as I cover the entrance, even the Fashen will not be able to detect it. Originally, this The secret should be that after our death, it will become a secret that no one knows again, and I even destroyed that letter, but now that my lord has encountered such a situation, I have to put all my eggs in one basket."

"Laud..." Du Lin suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"My lord, please listen to me. My ancestors also mentioned one thing in the letter back then, which was about the dungeon." Lauder suddenly summoned up his fighting spirit, and pushed the stone platform with the coffin aside, where the original stone platform was located. In the place, a staircase leading to the ground was revealed.

"This is the entrance to the dungeon. It was the Fashen who was bored in the cellar all day long and used his mental strength to study the special rock characteristics of Iron Wall Mountain. But later he discovered that the rock under his feet is different from the rest of the mountain. The local ones are a little different. After studying all the way, he discovered that these rocks are not the same as the rocks in the Iron Wall Mountains, but a kind of deliberately imitated rocks. If he didn't comprehend the law just in terms of insight, and he had studied the rocks in this small area for a long time, he would not have discovered it.

But the rock is indeed fake.With this clue, he continued to investigate, and finally discovered the existence of an underground city under the Great Rift Valley. Even the Great Rift Valley itself was not formed naturally, but was artificially opened up like this, because The only exit from the dungeon is in the Great Rift.I just don't know why, the only exit of this dungeon was covered up by unimaginable means. "

Du Lin looked at the faint entrance of the dungeon, and called Kaka in her heart, "Can you scan it?"
