Weird Wizarding World

Chapter 406 The Secret of the Ancestors

Colin opened the door, took Jennifer to the sofa in the living room, sat down, and asked softly:

Want something to drink?

It will be all right.

Jennifer was inexplicably shy looking at the handsome wizard who almost became her fiancé, but the crisis in her family made the charm in her heart only exist for a moment before disappearing like smoke.

Renee brought two cups of black tea and a plate of exquisite snacks at the right time.

I wonder what your Highness, Jennifer, wants from me? After a few words of greeting, Colin asked.

Jennifer took out the familiar half badge, looked at Colin and said solemnly:

There is indeed something I want to trouble you with when I come here this time. But before I tell you, I hope you can promise to keep it secret.

Colin raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the half metal badge on the table, paused and nodded solemnly: I will do it, please don't worry, Your Highness Jennifer.

We want Sir Colin to help open a door.

Open a door? Colin was slightly startled and put down the hand holding the black tea.

Yes, you will know the details when you get there, so forgive me for not saying more. Jennifer looked a little apologetic, and after thinking about it, she added: This matter is not dangerous, you don't have to worry, um... the location is In the Loen Palace.

Colin did not hesitate anymore, picked up half of the badge from the table and said cheerfully: Okay, Your Highness, please lead the way.

Jennifer nodded, feeling relieved, and took Colin out of the door and got into a simple public carriage.

The coachman had an ordinary face and was exceptionally silent. When he saw Colin and the two getting into the car without asking any questions, he whipped his whip and drove the carriage out of the residential area through a path that Colin had known for the first time, and merged into a bustling road. streets.

Just when Colin was a little confused, Jennifer's cheeks were slightly red, she bit her lip, and suddenly took off her gray coat, revealing a white cashmere sweater and the beautiful curves outlined by it.

Colin was startled, and subconsciously wanted to ask, but saw that Jennifer had already hurriedly taken out a gorgeous robe from somewhere and put it on again.

These are some necessary hiding methods. Jennifer, who was already covering Xiafei's cheeks at this moment, said to Colin pretending to be calm.

She couldn't remember any of the details of the family elders' previous instructions. It seemed that she had turned into steaming mist and floated away from her head while her shy body was getting hot.

...I see. Colin didn't think much about it. Sometimes, these primitive concealment methods are more effective than witchcraft in dealing with wizards.

After a pause, he suddenly frowned and asked: Does the Luen family suspect that the disappearance of Lord Irwin is related to the three wizards from the Ishtar school who just arrived?

Jennifer paid special attention to her whereabouts, obviously to avoid certain people.

And these people, in Colin's opinion, are the most likely ones, are obviously the three newcomers from Kom.

Jennifer glanced at Colin, her eyes a little surprised, but she was silent.

When Colin saw this, he didn't ask any more questions, but he just had more doubts in his heart.

The wizards of the Ista school actually attacked the Loen family... Is it to control the power of the Loen Kingdom?

Sir Colin, the driver will continue to take you to your destination.

The carriage stopped behind a high-end clothing store. After Jennifer finished speaking, she quietly got out of the car.

She will take the carriage exclusive to the royal family from the door of the clothing store and return to the palace in an honorable manner.

No one would find out that she actually visited Colin during this time.

After much tossing, Colin finally reached the depths of Loen Palace.

This place is located deep underground, under an inconspicuous big tree in the southeast corner of the palace. The whole place is a gray passage about two meters wide.

At the end of the passage, there is a copper-colored metal door carved with wheat ears.

The door was slightly wider, and three core members of the royal family were standing there.

King Dewiert, His Highness Silas, His Highness Alisa. Colin greeted them one by one.

The three of them also bowed respectfully.

Your Excellency Colin, it makes you laugh that the Luen family has fallen like this. The king with a majestic face sighed, staring at Colin intently with slightly cloudy eyes.

This is a gamble.

Here is another white tower from Irvine's grandfather.

My grandfather disappeared mysteriously along with all the official wizards, leaving no information whatsoever. The Loen family still exists, but only for now.

The Loen family, which does not even have a formal wizard, will soon lose all power and resources, and fall from the top of the clouds into the quagmire without any buffer.

Wizard Irvine once said that the hidden white tower in front of him could be opened when the Rune family had the most urgent need. He left some precious resources in it.

And now is undoubtedly that time.

However, the absurd thing is that the outermost daily protection of this secret room door requires at least a first-level wizard to open it.

This was originally used to guard against thieves who accidentally broke in, but now it has become the biggest difficulty troubling De Wirt and the others.

Irvine probably never thought that one day the Luen family would not even be able to find an official wizard who could open the secret room.

What specifically do you need me to do? Colin asked aloud.

What you need to do later is to input magic and spiritual power into the pillar at the same time. DeWirt pointed to a diamond-shaped pillar about one meter on the right side of the door.

Later?

Well, we have to wait for Jennifer to come over. DeWirt replied, and then said with a deliberate wry smile: She is now the most powerful wizard in our entire Loen family, and we need her cooperation to open the door.

Colin nodded calmly, his expression unchanged.

DeWirt looked at Colin with cloudy eyes, trying to find any possible expression of greed or joy on his face.

This is a gamble... DeWirt murmured in his heart.

No one knows whether Colin will kill them all after opening the secret room, and then take possession of everything in the secret room alone.

As a first-level wizard, Colin has such strength.

But DeWirt had no choice, and neither did the Loen family.

Even if they don't find any wizards, as time goes by, they won't be able to keep this secret room.

Even Jennifer, whose strength is closest to that of a formal wizard, still has years to go before she successfully advances to the first level.

The Luen family has no time to wait.

What's more, they still have a glimmer of hope that Irvine might still be alive.

If this 'Second White Tower' could be opened, we might be able to find clues about the disappearance of Wizard Irvine.

As long as Erwin, a second-level wizard, is still alive, the Loen family will still be the highest controller of the Loen Kingdom.

While thinking, footsteps came from the passage behind him, and Jennifer had arrived.

Your Highness Jennifer. Colin greeted calmly.

Your Excellency Colin. When Jennifer saw Colin, her face turned red and her eyes were a little evasive.

DeWirt looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although he ordered Jennifer to seduce Colin, it was just a casual move, and he didn't expect much good results, but in the current situation...why is there something wrong with his granddaughter?

Let's get started, Sir Colin.

The middle-aged king with a majestic look continued.

Okay. Colin nodded, walked to the pillar, and together with Jennifer, stretched out their hands to press the top of the pillar.

As the magic and spirit were revealed, a moment later, the iron door carved with wheat ears in front of her flashed with a ray of light. After scanning Jennifer's body, it opened silently.

Jennifer subconsciously looked into the door of the secret room, and so did Colin...or everyone present - except Delvitt.

The moment the door opened, the middle-aged king's body immediately tensed up and he stared at Colin intently.

Seeing that the latter was still standing there without making any other movements, he was slightly relieved.

It seems that what I need to do is over. Colin withdrew his curious gaze, turned around and said, Then I won't bother you any more.

He is not a fool, so he naturally sees that this must be an extremely important place for the Luen family.

However, a person without desire is strong. Colin is not interested in the secrets of the Loen family, and he is not the kind of person who can take advantage of others.

Therefore, in order to avoid embarrassment, it is better to take the initiative to leave.

Delvit was stunned for two seconds. He thought Colin would at least choose to follow him in and take a look.

After reacting, Delvit's eyes softened as he watched Colin, and joy gradually emerged in his heart.

You bet right!

Excuse me, Your Excellency Colin. He bowed respectfully to Colin, then raised his head, looked at Jennifer next to him, and then ordered: Go and see off Excellency Colin, Jennifer.

Although Jennifer is relatively powerful, she is only thirteen years old and is still just a girl.

DeWirt thought that the door to the secret room had been opened, so she would no longer be needed for the time being. It would be better to send Colin off. Maybe he could bring unexpected joy to the Luen family.

Yes, Grandpa. Jennifer nodded slightly and walked slowly to Colin.

Sir Colin, let's go, I will take you out.

She smoothed her hair beside her ears, not daring to look directly at Colin.

Yeah, okay. Colin nodded lightly.

Jennifer was too young, so she was at best a younger sister in his heart. Although Senior Lilian looks younger than Jennifer, she is actually much older. Although Shelley also looks younger, she is still 16 or 18 years old, and is completely different from Jennifer.

Let's go.

Watching the figures of the two people gradually disappearing, DeWilter withdrew his gaze and led Silas and Alisa into the secret room.

Just like when he came, Colin returned home via a small road in a disguised carriage.

And Jennifer didn't know if she had received some kind of instructions, so she sent him home. Although she was very shy, she continued to stay for a while before quietly returning to the palace.

Back in the palace, while Jennifer was still immersed in shyness, she was called to the secret room by DeWirt.

The protection of the iron door of the secret room has been lifted. In order to prevent it from being accidentally closed, DeWirt also directed Silas to move a heavy wooden chair to block it.

There are two floors in the secret room in front of you. The one who opened the door is on the first floor. There are more than ten huge shelves neatly arranged from left to right, almost filling the entire first floor. It can be seen from the labels on the shelves that they are all. Some precious resources such as magic stones or golden flame wheat.

Compared to the crowded first floor, the second floor of the secret room seemed much empty. There were only three bookshelves on the left hand side, with crystals and books on them.

On the right side of the second floor is a huge desk.

Before Irvine disappeared, he would occasionally come here to read some books or write something, and he would also check the secret room. This is why Delvit and others called this the Second White Tower.

At this moment, Delvit was standing behind the desk, with a solemn look on his face, holding several thin pieces of manuscript paper in his hands.

Jennifer hurriedly walked up to the second floor, looked at Delvit and asked:

Grandpa, what do you want from me?

Delvit pressed his eyebrows and saw that Jennifer did not answer, but suddenly asked with a smile:

How are you getting along with Colin?

Jennifer suddenly blushed, and Nono said: It's not bad.

Seeing her like this, Delvit couldn't help but sigh, knowing that there was probably nothing left to do.

I think I probably know the reason why your great-grandfather disappeared. Delvit paused and continued.

“Grandfather Erwin and the rest of the official wizards of the family went to the Sunless Forest to try to open the ‘Secret of the Ancestors’ to obtain the complete Loen Meditation Method and other resources that existed there.

From the manuscript paper left by your great-grandfather, we know that they have a high probability of success this time, so they brought all the official wizards with them.

There will not be any danger in this operation. Even if it is unsuccessful, it is just that there is no way to successfully unlock the secret of the ancestors.

But Grandpa Erwin and the others haven't returned yet. Apparently something unexpected happened.

Having said this, Delvit couldn't help but sigh, his eyes cast a layer of gloom, and he turned around and said:

Jennifer, I asked you to come here because there is one more thing you need to do.

Jennifer looked up.

Silas and Alyssa had complicated expressions on their faces.

Before Jennifer came, Delvitt had already told them about his decision and convinced them, but at this moment, there was still unavoidable worry in his heart.

It's a huge gamble.

If you lose the bet, you will have nothing...

Silas couldn't help but wanted to persuade him again whether he should think about it carefully.

The Luen family has no other choice but to gamble! However, Delvit seemed to see his hesitation and said in a deep voice in advance.

His eyes slowly moved over Silas and Alisa: I believe that Jin Yu, he is a principled person, and even if he doesn't agree, he will not make the situation worse.

‘Promise…what do you want Mr. Colin to promise? ’ Jennifer looked confused.

I need you to request Colin on behalf of the Loen royal family and ask him to rescue Grandpa Irvine.

Delvit moved his gaze to her and said in a deep voice with a stern expression that Jennifer had never seen before,

Tell him that in return, the Loen family can give him everything he wants, including golden flame wheat, magic stones, the Loen meditation method that can reach the fourth level, and even... you.

The young and shy emotions that still remained in Jennifer's heart were shattered by the sudden order in front of her, leaving her in a daze. Behind her grandfather's slightly cold words, she seemed to see a dark tide coming towards her, making her almost breathless. gas.

Jennifer, this is about the survival of the family, do you understand? Delvit emphasized again, his face extremely serious, like a gray-white sculpture whittled with knives and axes.

Jennifer opened her mouth, then finally lowered her head and responded:

Yes, Grandpa.
