Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Looking at the deep and dark underground staircase passage, Lei Xiao said to the old blacksmith: "Old Mr. Fang Hai, since your ancestors set up this magic mechanism, there must be a deep meaning. Let's go down and explore it now."

"As ordered, Lord Lord, this is exactly what my subordinates have in mind."

Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Fang Hai took a step forward and said, "Then let the subordinates walk at the front. If there are any other hidden formations, they can be eliminated in time."

"very good."

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao said to the dragon woman beside him: "Hong Ye, follow Mr. Fang Hai closely in case something unexpected happens."

"I obey! Lord, please rest assured."

A crisp voice sounded, and Hong Ye nodded immediately and accepted the order.

Just like that, under the lead of Hong Ye and Fang Hai.

Accompanied by the echo of empty footsteps, Lei Xiao and his group of more than ten people went down the dark stairs.

It didn't take long before a dark secret room came into view.

Using the night vision effect of Star Eyes, Lei Xiao noticed.

The area here is only about seventy or eighty square meters, which is much smaller than the large forging room just now.

The walls made of stones around the secret room were not inlaid with light crystals, but there were several magic lampstands that had long been rusted in the corners.

"Guiding light!"

At Lei Xiao's signal, along with the staff in Ariel's slender hand, a dazzling line of light was drawn in mid-air.

Ten basketball-sized magic light balls immediately rose up from the top of the staff.

Then it quickly flew to all parts of the room, suspended high below the ceiling.

In an instant, the dark secret room was as bright as day.

Under the illumination of the magic light ball, Lei Xiao further noticed.

This was originally supposed to be a study room.

Around the room are neatly placed a large number of wooden bookshelves and bookcases that have been corroded by time.

In the innermost corner, you can still see a collapsed wooden desk and a few tattered wooden chairs.

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao's eyes fell on the wall closest to him.

Due to their long disrepair, these walls made of huge stones have already seen water dripping from them.

Between ticks and ticks, many small puddles formed under the wall.

"It seems that the magic wood used in these bookcases and desks is not from the ancient ship."

Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao thought to himself: "Therefore, in such a humid environment, it is reasonable for it to rot into such a scene."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao's dark eyes moved and landed on the center of the room.

There, there is a human sculpture sitting cross-legged on a bluestone platform, which looks particularly eye-catching.

In addition, the other thing worth noting is that the floor tiles of the secret room form a giant anvil with the pattern of a saber and a knight's sword crossed, which is the emblem of the Thousand Forging family where Fang Hai is located. chapter.

"Lord, something seems wrong here."

Immediately afterwards, Bai Wei's slightly confused voice came to Lei Xiao's ears: "Although there are many bookcases here, there is nothing..."

"oh?"

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao walked to the nearest bookshelf. After careful inspection, he found that, as Bai Wei said, there were no traces of book paper on it except for thick floating dust.

The bookcase below was also empty, with only an extremely strong musty wood smell emanating from it, causing Lei Xiao to frown slightly.

"Could this place have been completely plundered by the enemies of the Loren Kingdom?"

Just when Lei Xiao saw this place, Ariel's clear voice came over: "Since this was once the secret study of a fifth-level blacksmith, then there must be a large number of precious equipment blueprints and forging works stored in it."

"impossible."

Just listen to Hong Ye's rustling voice, not far behind Lei Xiao: "The magic mechanism just now has no trace of being destroyed. Therefore, the greatest possibility should be that it was possessed by the same person." The clan members of the bloodline, or the blacksmith himself, were taken away in advance."

"So that's it..."

On the other side, Fang Hai's slightly disappointed old voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again: "Originally, I thought I could get some of the forging skills left by my ancestors."

With a heavy sigh, Fang Hai continued: "However, if I can see the place where my ancestors once worked, my trip is already worthwhile."

"Mr. Fang Hai, don't be disappointed. I always feel that this secret room is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao, who had just turned around, nodded slightly to the old blacksmith and comforted him.

"Lord, please come and take a look!"

At this moment, Chaoyan's signature startled sound came over.

Walking closer to this girl, Lei Xiao noticed.

On the stone floor next to the entrance to the secret room, there was a large black scorch mark. Although it was covered with a layer of dust, it was still visible to the naked eye.

"Lord, it seems that the whereabouts of those equipment blueprints have been found."

I saw Chaoyan squatting on the ground, using his fingernails to pinch out a piece of paper the size of a fingernail from the gap in the corner of the wall, and then blinked his big eyes and said: "This special magic paper is exactly the equipment A special carrier for the blueprint.”

"So, these precious equipment blueprints were not taken away, but burned on the spot?"

Bai Wei nodded thoughtfully, and Bai Wei on the side moved her furry ears and murmured to herself: "But why didn't the people who came here take it away instead of burning it to the ground? ?”

"The exact answer is still unknown."

Shaking his head slightly, Lei Xiao then waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's continue the investigation."

"As you command! Lord Lord!"

Immediately afterwards, the subordinates responded in unison.

Next, the group carefully searched the bookshelves, bookcases and desk areas around the secret room, but did not find any other clues.

In the end, they all unanimously focused their attention on the human sculpture in the center of the room.

Coming close to the statue, Lei Xiao noticed.

The size of this statue is no different from that of a normal person. It depicts the image of a burly old man sitting cross-legged.

If you look closely, you will see that the sculpture of this burly old man has a resolute face and a steel-wire beard, which is very eye-catching.

On the calm yet melancholy old face, the brows are slightly wrinkled, as if he is meditating and practicing asceticism. The depiction is lifelike.

The most important thing is that his appearance is at least eighty similar to that of Fang Hai standing next to Lei Xiao. At first glance, it is almost impossible to tell them apart.

However, compared to Fang Hai, whose current strength is only at the peak level of the third level, he obviously lacks the calmness of the sculpture and the calm craftsman's temperament revealed in his brows.

At this point, the answer is naturally self-evident.

"Could this lifelike statue depict my ancestor?"

Realizing this, Fang Hai couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, with a look of shock on his old face.

"It should be unmistakable. Judging from the exquisite carving, the depiction is no different from the real person."

Looking at the statue in front of him that was almost the same as a real person, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Immediately afterwards, a sense of familiarity suddenly flashed through his mind, not from the similar appearance to Fang Hai, but from the statue itself.

However, this feeling was fleeting, and before Lei Xiao had time to think deeply, he disappeared without a trace.

Frowning slightly, Lei Xiao continued to observe.

In addition, the most eye-catching thing about this statue is the red gem inlaid on its chest.

"Lord, why is there such a statue in the center of a secret study?"

At this time, Bai Wei's confused voice immediately reached Lei Xiao's ears: "I always feel that this strange layout is very inconsistent."

"That's true. Having said that, the carving of this statue is really too detailed. Almost every hair and texture on the clothes are perfectly depicted."

On the other side, Ye Cang pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and said thoughtfully: "This scene is exactly the same as what I saw before in the enchantment area of ​​the Winged Human Race that was completely petrified."

Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao's eyes lit up and he suddenly became enlightened.

The source of that strange feeling of familiarity just now came from the Winged Human Clan enchantment area that we had explored before!

"When I was in the winged human race's boundary area before, I could clearly feel the energy fluctuations emanating from the petrified winged humans."

"However, this statue does not have any energy fluctuations flowing out. No wonder no clues were found at first."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but curled his lips slightly, and then asked the Muscular Priest and the Queen Kingdom General on the side: "Ye Cang, Ju Bai, can you two confirm whether this is a real statue or a petrified one?" People?"

As a lord from another world, Lei Xiao can only view the attribute columns of the subordinates who have signed a contract with him.

Therefore, in the face of this situation, it is naturally impossible to distinguish through the advantages of the alien lords.

As for the red gem, although Lei Xiao was able to open the attribute bar, there was only the word "unknown" on it, and he also didn't get any useful clues.

On the other side, after hearing Lei Xiao's question, Ye Cang and Ju Bai, who were good at healing, looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.

It is worth mentioning that although Ye Cang, who is a dark healer, and Ju Bai, who is a Holy Sword Priest, are absolutely antagonistic due to historical reasons.

Before Ju Bai was subdued, Ye Cang also showed strong hostility to him many times. As for Ju Bai, naturally he was also tit for tat, not to be outdone.

However, after Ju Bai successfully joined Lei Xiao's staff, the opposition between the two disappeared.

After all, after signing the contract, the lord is their first belief. Since they have the same belief, other things will naturally have to come later.

"Back to Lord, there are many types of petrification magic, but its essence is to turn the target into a real stone statue from the inside out."

Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Ye Cang responded respectfully: "The last time the Winged People were petrified in the Winged People's enchantment area, they were still able to emit energy fluctuations because of the particularity of the Winged People's physique.

But this time, the two subordinates were unable to tell the difference. After all, Mr. Fang Hai's ancestor was a fifth-level strong man, and the level of magic released by the opponent who could petrify him was far beyond that of the two subordinates. The current range of human abilities. "

After Ye Cang finished speaking, Orange Bai beside him nodded.

As for Hong Ye, who was extremely powerful, although he was a fifth-level magician, he was not in the healing profession after all. There was nothing he could do about this situation.

After a pause, Ye Cang added: "However, Lord, judging from the appearance alone, it is very likely that Mr. Fang Hai's ancestor will be petrified."

"But why is this red gem not petrified?"

Blinking his big eyes and staring at the statue for a long time, Chao Yan's fair face was full of confusion and he said: "Judging from the outline of the gemstone, this should be a pendant worn around the neck of the statue. It can't really be just a statue." statue……"

At this moment, the words came to an abrupt end as the tip of his nose was almost touching the gem.

The next second, her expression suddenly became horrified, and she quickly put her face away.

However, because she exerted too much force, she sat down directly on the ground, and then said in shock: "Lord, this... this gem is so weird, it actually absorbed a lot of the magic power of my subordinates just now!"

"oh?"

Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao looked stern and quickly motioned to other subordinates to move back.

Huzhang and Hongye, one on the left and one on the right, both appeared in front of Lei Xiao, looking ready to attack.

On the other side, the weird ruby ​​suddenly glowed redly, making it almost difficult to open one's eyes.

Since all this happened in the blink of an eye, it was not until Lei Xiao reacted again.

An extremely burly figure was already standing in front of his group.

If you look closely, you will see that the figure is a burly old man with white beard and hair. He has a resolute face, is not angry and has no authority, and has a beard like a steel wire, which is very eye-catching.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but be stunned. Even Chaoyan, who had just stood up with his buttocks covered and a grin on his face, had a dumbfounded look on his face.

There is no doubt that this burly old man who suddenly appeared is obviously exactly the same as the sculpture next to him, both in body shape and appearance!

After being stunned for a moment, Fang Hai came back to his senses and saw that his old face was full of caution, and then asked: "Your Excellency, are you my ancestor?"
