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

Chapter 545: The past of King Loren’s capital is like smoke

"That's right, it's me."

The ethereal and resonant old voice sounded, and the burly old man who suddenly appeared nodded slightly and responded lightly.

Immediately afterwards, the burly old man closed his eyes and concentrated for a moment. Finally, he cast a rather sharp gaze on Fang Hai in front of him, and said: "So, are you my descendant?"

"My distant grandson Fang Hai? Qian Duan, I have met my ancestor!"

On the other side, after feeling the familiar energy fluctuations emanating from the burly old man that were almost exactly the same as his own, Fang Hai immediately knelt down on the ground and saluted the burly old man under Lei Xiao's nod.

"Grandson? That's all, get up first."

Hearing Fang Hai's self-identification at least nine generations later, the burly old man's expression couldn't help but become surprised.

After that, his old eyes moved, first towards Lei Xiao who was guarded by Huzhang and Hongye behind him, and nodded slightly to show a friendly attitude without hostility.

Then he looked around again at the mottled bookcases around him and the cracked walls of the secret room, and then asked slowly: "What year is it now?"

"If we go back to our ancestors, it would be 662 years in the Heroic Calendar... No, if converted to the mainland's common calendar, it would be 3000 years in the Stars Era."

After standing up again, Fang Hai, whose old face was full of excitement, responded with some dancing.

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

He already knew something about the calendar of this world.

Needless to say, the Heroic Calendar is the Lengyan Kingdom’s own unique way of counting the years. The first year represents naturally the year when Wang Xi established the Lengyan Kingdom.

As the common calendar of the mainland, the Star Era, also known as the Third Era, was calculated after the Blank Age.

As for the era before this, the Blank Age was called the Silver Moon Era, also known as the Second Era. The ancient era further back was the Solar Era, which was the First Era.

"It has been a thousand years, but to me, it is almost the same as yesterday. Everything is still vivid in my mind..."

Sighing heavily, the burly old man seemed to have remembered something, and asked eagerly: "What about the Kingdom of Loren now? Does it still exist in the world?"

"Ancestor, this is what happened..."

Next, Fang Hai briefly described the destruction of the Loren Kingdom, the subsequent disputes and chaos that lasted for more than three hundred years, and the birth of the Cold Flame Kingdom to the burly old man in front of him.

"I see, this is a reasonable thing. After all, the royal capital at that time was already in flames and was besieged on all sides."

He sighed again, and the wrinkles on the burly old man's face became a little deeper, and he didn't say anything for a while.

After a while, the burly old man cast his gaze on Lei Xiao, who was protected behind him by Huzhang and Hongye, and said again: "Your Excellency, you must be the leader here, right?"

"That's right, old gentleman, please forgive me for intruding."

Nodding slightly to the burly old man, Lei Xiao immediately responded.

"Your Excellency is too polite. If you hadn't led everyone here, how could I see the future generations of Xiao Er Qiandian after a thousand years?"

On the other side, the burly old man first showed a friendly smile, then looked at Chao Yan aside, and continued: "And, thanks to this little friend, who took the initiative to provide me with a lot of magic power, I was able to communicate with you all See you."

"What does active supply mean? It was obviously sucked away suddenly, making me hungry again..."

Hearing this, Chao Yan, who was standing behind Lei Xiao with only half of his head exposed, wrinkled his nose slightly and muttered secretly.

"Mr. Xiao, you're welcome. It's an honor for us to meet the forging master who was once the best."

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao's eyes fell on the statue on the side again, and he couldn't help showing a look of doubt, and asked: "Old sir, what is all this going on?"

"As you can see, my true form is exactly this statue."

Following Lei Xiao's gaze, he landed on the statue. The burly old man smiled bitterly and shook his head: "And what you see now is just a special energy body."

"Lord Ancestor, so you were really petrified back then?"

Hearing the sound, Fang Hai's old face was full of eagerness, and he asked again.

"exactly."

Nodding slightly, the burly old man's eyes were blurred, apparently lost in memories, and he responded: "Back then, the capital of the Kingdom of Loren was besieged by an opponent's 500,000-strong army for more than half a year.

However, due to the absolute defensive barrier covering the entire city, the dwarves' unique magic conversion barrier has already connected to the lava deep underground, gaining a steady stream of lava power. "

"So, no matter how hard the opponent tries, they are still unable to break through."

A hint of sneer appeared on the face of the burly old man, and he said disdainfully: "Under the city wall, I still remember the funny expressions of the opponent's coach and generals racking their brains and scratching their heads."

"If that's the case, how did the other party break the city in the end?"

Hearing this, the curious look on Lei Xiao's face became more obvious, and he asked again.

Needless to say, these historical battle experiences, although very long ago, undoubtedly have a lot of reference value for Lei Xiao.

Therefore, Lei Xiao will naturally not let go of the details of the war.

"To be honest with you, as the saying goes, success is the same as failure. In this war, although our Kingdom of Loren maintained a peaceful life for another half a year through the dwarves' conversion of secret methods and the supply of absolute defensive barriers, it was ultimately defeated. It’s because of this secret method of converting magic power.”

Having said this, the burly old man's expression darkened again and he responded.

"Oh? Why did you lose to the secret method of converting magic power?"

Hearing the sound, Chaoyan's big eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but step forward and asked curiously.

Immediately afterwards, she seemed to remember the fear of having her magic power sucked away, and she quickly hid behind Lei Xiao.

"After half a year of siege, the enemy, who had no idea what to do, finally found a vicious method to decipher the secret laws of the dwarves."

Shaking his head helplessly, the burly old man responded immediately.

"Using the power of a steady stream of violent magma to provide an absolute defensive barrier is an overestimating approach. How can the vast power of nature be controlled so easily?"

On the other side, Hong Ye, with her arms crossed, frowned slightly and said: "Only the ignorant dwarves can figure out this kind of cleverness."

"This strong woman is right. The opponent was aiming at the instability of the magic power conversion barrier and input a large amount of magic power into the lava zone deep underground, causing the magic power conversion barrier to overload, and then There was a big explosion."

The burly old man's old eyes were blurred again, and he said: "That unexpected and shocking explosion not only caused a quarter of the royal capital to be turned into a sea of ​​​​fire and ruins, causing the royal magic army that maintained the barrier to completely annihilated.

Moreover, the absolute defensive barrier protecting the royal capital disappeared. "

"And the enemy took advantage of this opportunity to invade the city that was caught off guard, right?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao held his chin with one hand and nodded slightly.

"As your Excellency said, in that frightening night, faced with the general attack launched by the 500,000-strong army of the opponent outside the city, and the scorching scene like purgatory in the city, our defense forces of the Kingdom of Loren were caught off guard. They were quickly breached one after another.”

Sighing heavily, the burly old man continued: "At that time, seeing that the situation was over, the old man knew that there was nothing he could do to save the day. After he sent people to secretly send his youngest heir out of the city, the opponent's army had already rushed into the city. neighborhood.”

"In an instant, wailings broke out and flames rose. These enemy soldiers who had endured for half a year instantly turned into ferocious demons and began to act recklessly in this land that was once full of vitality and beauty."

At this time, the burly old man's turbid pupils were already filled with anger, and he continued: "And the old man is

He immediately led all the clansmen and family guards of the Qiandian family, and with endless anger, launched a life-and-death struggle with the opponent. "

"After that, although we had the upper hand at first and a large number of enemy soldiers fell to our feet like wheat, but after a fierce battle all night, we were helpless in the end with the enemy's continuous reinforcements. Defeated."

I saw a looming glint in the eyes of the burly old man, and he said: "When I came to my senses, there were no other warriors from the Qiandian family around."

Having said this, the burly old man's expression suddenly became awe-inspiring, and he continued: "This scene has undoubtedly aroused my anger completely."

"However, even though I had already reached the level of a fifth-level veteran at that time, the long-term high-intensity battle left little energy left in my body.

During the fierce battle, just when I was planning to burn out the remaining energy in my body and die together with as many opponents as possible, I accidentally fell into the petrification magic of the fifth-level strongman who came for reinforcements from the enemy. "

"So that's it."

Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao pondered: "Then, the old gentleman struggled to break through the encirclement and finally escaped into the secret study room located in the forging room, right?"

"Yes, that's exactly it."

Sighing heavily again, the burly old man responded sadly.

"But, since the old gentleman has been affected by the petrification magic, he should turn into stone immediately. How can he have the strength to return here?"

Pushing up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, Ye Cang frowned and asked.

"Of course it's because of this magical pendant."

Nodding to Ye Cang, the burly old man cast his gaze on the ruby ​​on the chest of the sculpture next to him, and then said: "This pendant was made when I represented the Kingdom of Loren when negotiating with a wandering dwarf tribe. , obtained by chance.

It can automatically absorb free energy particles in the air and then convert them into a strange force. "

"It was this magical power that slowed down the speed of being petrified. After being completely petrified, I was surprised to find that I could still turn into an energy entity within the small area of ​​this secret room."

After a pause, the burly old man looked at Chaoyan, who had half of his head exposed, and said: "Later, after I stayed in this secret room in the form of an energy body for a period of time.

Because the strange power on the magical pendant has been greatly reduced, and the speed of automatic absorption is very slow, it is not enough to maintain my awake state, so I will fall into a deep sleep again until everyone appears. "

Having said this, the burly old man's eyes fell on Chao Yan, who had half of his head exposed, causing the latter to shrink his neck and completely hide himself behind Lei Xiao.

"I understand, this can be considered a blessing among misfortunes."

Feeling the pressure of Chao Yan pulling his sleeves behind him, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, then frowned and asked, "Then why is this place so empty?"

"You must have noticed that, just in case, the equipment blueprints that I have worked hard on throughout my life and treasured were discovered by the enemy. Therefore, before they were completely petrified, I had already gritted my teeth and collected all these priceless items. Burnt.”

Nodding slightly to Lei Xiao, the burly old man responded helplessly.

"Is it true that everything was burned down?"

With a slight sigh, Fang Hai muttered to himself full of disappointment.

"My distant grandson, let me ask you, how is the Qiandui family doing now?"

Noticing Fang Hai's sadness, the burly old man focused his attention on the former again and said with a gentle expression.

"Back to my ancestors, this is what happened..."

Next, Fang Hai briefly described the family's decline to the other party.

"This is also a reasonable thing. After all, the strength and good foundation of my Qiandui family have been exhausted in the battle to destroy the country."

After listening to Fang Hai's description, the burly old man also let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly.

Immediately afterwards, the burly old man looked solemn and said again: "My grandson, this young man is your master, right? I have seen countless people in my life, and I can clearly feel that this young man is by no means an ordinary person. ."

Looking at Lei Xiao not far away, a look of expectation could not help but appear on the face of the burly old man, and he continued: "Perhaps, under his command, our Qiandian family can return to its former glory. It is still unknown."

"My ancestor, my grandson also thinks so. My grandson has already decided to swear allegiance to this young master."

On the other side, Fang Hai bowed slightly without hesitation and said with firm eyes.

"Very good. A good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good minister chooses his master to serve. I chose the right master back then, which made the Qiandui family prosperous for a while."

Nodding with satisfaction, the burly old man showed a smile and said: "In that case, as an ancestor, I naturally have to let my descendants make this trip worthwhile."
