Chapter 88: Starry Sky Pavilion
Compared with the thoroughly transformed outer Wangjing area, the inner Wangjing has basically retained its original appearance.
Everywhere are exquisite courtyards and high towers, all over the place are filled with flowers and emerald green plants, exquisitely crafted handicrafts can be seen everywhere, flower-adorned corridors are mysterious and quiet, piece by piece artificial lakes connected to underground water veins, under the sunlight, ripples of sparkling waves.
If it weren't for the bloodstains and scars of battle everywhere, and the corpses of elves that littered the ground with their eyes frozen in death, this place could be called a paradise on earth.
But in the end, even within the most heavily guarded imperial court, no one could escape the death brought by the heavenly fire.
For the high-ranking elemental spirits that can penetrate any hole, as long as a few cracks appear in the protective array, they will be able to swarm in and the young and female sprites hiding inside the royal court who are not strong enough to fight back may become their opponents.
It's entirely possible for Medea to imagine what it was like when the massacre took place.
He merely paused for a moment in his heart to mourn, then crossed one corpse after another without any emotional fluctuations, starting to look for his goal.
It wasn't until now that Mide discovered everything had become unusually simple.
No ban, no trap, no mechanism, no enemy, and even the road signs are carefully and thoughtfully placed everywhere. In the central Fountain Square, there is a map of the entire Wangting area, clearly marking the location of all important buildings.
Upon careful consideration, this is also to be expected.
The Spirit King's Court is not a place to test people, but the daily living area of spirits. It's not just ordinary spirits, but also where the spirit kings reside. How could such a place have facilities specifically for combat? More consideration is given to convenience and comfort in life.
The moon is full like a mirror, sprinkling down its gentle and watery moonlight. The night is not lonely, the dense and deep green tree branches are shrouded in a layer of light and thin moonlit gauze.
A small and agile stream winds its way through the artificial hills, shimmering with a crystalline light that sparkles like diamonds.
A nightingale, unaware of its hiding place, sings a melodious song, its voice as clear and resonant as a bell.
Midi strolled through the king's court, it was as if he wasn't on an adventure, but rather taking a leisurely walk.
Soon, a magnificent palace appeared before Midi's eyes.
The palace gates were wide open, and hadn't even been closed, as if waiting for the arrival of a new master.
This is the Starfall Temple, for the spirits, it's a building that combines the functions of a treasure house and a library. Wealth and knowledge, if these two things can't be called heritage, what else can be considered as heritage?
However, when the inheritance of the Elf King's Court was finally within reach, Midei appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was complex and difficult to understand.
In his past life, Mide entered the Spirit King's Court only to find it had already been plundered. He and Feena and Eris could only continue on to explore the depths of the Gran forest in search of funds to establish a small team.
In this life, Mi Di took the lead and arrived here earlier than the Empire, the Principality, adventurers, and even top mercenary groups. Mi Di's own strength had also made a leap forward from his previous life, perfectly merging with the ghost god, transcending to a higher level, and even grasping the extreme intent, making him one of the top ghost swordsmen on the Arad continent.
With sufficient momentum from behind, the support of the two major earldoms, and a solid position in the duchy, after obtaining it, there is no need to worry about being suspected of treachery. On the contrary, it can be thoroughly digested at the first time and used for the fastest development.
These and past life, formed an extremely obvious contrast.
Taking a deep breath, Midy calmed down and stepped into the Starry Sky Temple.
Above the head, the moonlight ripples, the starlight flows, like a dream, like an illusion. The palace in front of me, with its pavilions and corridors, is magnificent and resplendent, colorful and varied.
As soon as Mi Di entered the front hall, he was shocked by the scene in the hall.
In the spacious hall, many small mountains were neatly stacked. Void iron, star steel, hardened gold, magical secret silver, Tian Gang stone, Di Xie stone, diamond, bloodstone, sea blue stone, black obsidian, purple agate, red agate, goose yellow pearl and so on...
All sorts of rare materials were piled up in the great hall.
Midi roughly estimated, casually took out the pile of black agate with the lowest value among them, and placed it in the Bellmarl Principality, which could buy a piece of land equivalent to a baron's territory, and obtain a noble title, establishing a solid foundation for future generations. Not to mention the more valuable amethyst, or even the elusive Void Iron that was hard to come by.
These materials themselves are a treasure trove!
"The Elf Kingdom was established over a thousand years ago, and in the past, it was also a dominant force. Having these rare materials is nothing to write home about. If all the materials from the satellite cities were gathered together, I'm afraid they would still be several times more than that."
Midi was slightly shocked, but then calmed down. After all, his vision had already been placed on the entire continent of Aladdin, and although he had to move forward one step at a time, this did not prevent him from outlining a magnificent blueprint in his mind. These materials could only be considered as the initial accumulation.
He walked through the front hall and came to the central hall.
In the central hall, on both sides are huge bookshelves that stretch tens of meters high and connect directly to the ceiling. In between them are dozens of giant jade stone tables, each with an object placed on it, spaced ten steps apart from one another.
Mi Di glanced around and found that some tables were placed with various medicines, some tables were arranged with skill books and various legal codes, and some tables were placed with exquisite weapons. The thirty jade tables were all set up with rare treasures, which could cause people to scramble for them and trigger a bloody storm if they flowed out casually.
The most valuable ones are the three jade tables at the very bottom.
On top of it, a staff was placed, the staff itself exuded a surging tide of magical power, and at its tip was inlaid a rare dragon eye.
On top of it, a set of profound and abstruse legal codes was placed, with a black surface and no name, giving people an extremely solemn atmosphere.
And on the last page, there is a very thick book that records the various alchemy formulas of the Elf tribe over the past thousand years, special secret methods for upgrading levels, and even the locations and entry methods of many treasures set up hundreds of years ago!
These three things, plus the countless rare materials in the front hall, are wealth, knowledge and power. The things that many people dream of and pursue with all their might.
In the previous life, the Morning Star Mercenary Corps rose rapidly to become a first-rate mercenary corps after receiving the inheritance. The half-elf sisters "Fire Spark Twin Guns" and "Butterfly Twin Guns" stood out even more, with an astonishing speed of leveling up, and in one leap became the strongest adventurers, which was originally somewhat inconceivable to Midee.
But now, after witnessing the truth of inheritance and experiencing its weight, Midei feels that all this is simply a matter of course.
And he can also determine that after obtaining this inheritance, it is enough to build a first-class Falcon team in Feina's mind.
The biggest problem now is how to transport so much wealth out of the royal court. In the previous life, it was said that the Morning Star Mercenary Corps was attacked three times after obtaining the inheritance, and in the intense struggle, Odelle had to painfully give up most of them - especially those large quantities of rare materials, only taking the most valuable books and equipment away.
But for Mide who had been prepared for a long time, this was not a problem at all.
He took off a pendant from his collar and recited a simple incantation.
The next moment, a gigantic summoned beast that was tens of meters long appeared in the palace.
This summoned beast was like a giant silkworm, yet also seemed to be a weightless white cloud, floating in the air and occasionally flipping over. Its body was enormous, but its temperament was very gentle and well-behaved, and even when it stretched out its body, it didn't collide with anything in the palace.
The name of this summoned beast is "Stellaluna".
Just like Fina gave Midia a black sky sword before she left, Alice also gave something, which was this star cocoon. Although this summoned beast had no combat power, its body could hold a large number of items, and it was a spatial treasure.
The number of treasures in the Star Pavilion is extremely large, and the classics are counted in millions. However, at this moment, with the countless rays of light emanating from all over Xing Yan's body, from the front hall to the central hall, whether it was treasure or equipment, rare materials, medicinal materials that needed to be properly preserved, books that had to be placed in order, and laws with prohibitions on them, everything broke free from the constraints of gravity and entered Xing Yan's body in an orderly manner.
In the blink of an eye, Midie didn't even need to lift a finger, and the entire Xīng Wū Temple was swept clean. And Xīng Yǒu also once again entered the pendant in Midie's hand, without leaving any trace.
Up to this point, it can be said that the entire adventure has achieved its purpose, and from now on, one can completely leave.
But Medea did not do so.
Because in his heart there was always a huge question -
That dark elf on par with "Nightmare's Hand", the incredibly powerful wandering gunman, what has brought him here?
The degree of familiarity with the royal court shown by that nameless dark elf, as well as the strength to always be one step ahead of Mide, made it no problem at all to escape from the demonic pulse and find this Starlight Temple.
In fact, Mi Di had long been prepared to fight back on the road. When entering the Starlight Temple, he was even more focused and deliberately pretended to concentrate his attention on the royal inheritance, also intending to lure the opponent into making a move and then launch a counterattack.
But that dark elf is indeed not here.
With an unsolvable puzzle in her mind, Mi Di walked towards the back hall of Xing Gong Temple.
In the back palace there were no treasures, but a beautifully landscaped and picturesque garden.
However, Medici soon discovered that the flow of magic here was somewhat abnormal and not evenly distributed, but flowed in a certain fixed direction, as if it were a stream flowing from high to low.
Along with the abnormal flow of magic power, he soon discovered that under a statue in this garden, there was a secret passage leading to the underground depths.
This was something he had never discovered in his previous life.
A gentle breeze came from the secret passage, carrying a rich breath of life, and in an instant, it brought a warmth that felt like spring all year round.
"This is it!"
Midi's pupils suddenly contracted violently at this moment, and his eyes finally turned from emotion to shock.
Since entering the royal court, scene after scene has flashed through his mind like a slide show, finally forming a complete picture.
He finally knew why the dark elf had come.
But if his conjecture was true, then compared to that, these things in the Starlight Temple could only be considered a smokescreen.
No, it can even be said that one article is worthless.
