"You said they would stay in Cartier for a few more days?" The queen turned slowly and looked at Cornelia in surprise.

"Yes, that's what they said."

"Why? Isn't the negotiations over? Or do they have new ideas?"

"I think the climate in Cartier is very comfortable and I want to stay for a few more days."

"Comfortable climate?" The queen frowned: "If they wanted to walk around, I could understand. Comfortable climate? It means that they don't plan to go out, just stay here, right?"

"I think that's what it means." Cornelia replied.

The queen's eyes slowly narrowed into a slit and said to herself: "There must be a problem. The Giant Snake City is not small in scale. As the city lord, he has absolutely no leisure time at home and has nothing to deal with. He can stay here to enjoy the comfortable climate. Those lichs can use space magic, and I guess he may not be in Cartier anymore. If he is not in Cartier... Then where would he go with the time he stays in Cartier? The difference between pretending to stay in Cartier and going back directly is... negotiation? Yes, since he is still in Cartier, you can talk to me again. So the purpose of pretending to stay in Cartier must be related to negotiation. They went directly to discover the remains of Crimatha?"

The queen looked at Cornelia in surprise.

Connelia nodded hesitantly, "It's possible."

"Excavation of the ruins of Krimatha... which ruins of Krimatha will they open?" The queen hesitated: "Andrew is also discovering the ruins of Krimatha. Will they collide together?"

...

At dusk, when Jones's team appeared near the ruins of No. 11 Krymartha in the Gustav Empire, the invading Lombak soldiers had not yet withdrawn. However, they seemed to have received orders to retreat and were pulling out the camp.

"Do we have to wait for them to leave before we start?" Adale asked.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Jones looked at the camp from afar and whispered: "No, no need. They cannot pose a threat. Adair, you stare at them and make sure they retreat as promised. Time is tight, and we are now ready to enter the ruins."

"Okay, come on."

Leaving the top of the mountain, led by the wood elves who were pioneers, Jones, Lucy, and Dora came to a place about five kilometers away from the camp.

It was a dense coniferous forest located on the plain, covered with white white snow. The surface looked almost no different from ordinary coniferous forests.

The leading wood elves took Jones and the others to a big tree, then reached out and pushed away the snow and mud at the roots of the tree. Soon, a gray stone brick was exposed.

"Is this the ruin?"

"Yes, the whole thing is underground. There are no ruins on the ground. If it is a city ruin, there should be traces on the ground. At present, it seems that it covers at least fifty square kilometers. The entrance is unknown and the depth is unknown. We found a digging entrance in front, but after entering, we found that it was a dead end."

"Take me over and have a look."

"good."

Under the leadership of the wood elves, Jones and his party walked about a kilometer. Along the way, there were dense woods, and they could accidentally encounter sealed stone bricks. It was just a coincidence. The upper platform of the ruins did not seem to be a plane, but an irregular shape. Some places were like the position under the roots that Jones saw at the beginning, but were actually higher than the ground. If it were not covered by the roots, they could see at a glance. In some places, they could not see stone bricks even if they were dug down for five meters. The secret archives of the Holy See were also very vague. There was no further information except the location.

Finally, they came to a slope.

“It’s here.”

Following the direction pointed by the wood elf, a small protrusion on the slope. It was a broken stone wall, and a pit had been dug out. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the pit was pitch black and there was nothing to see.

Standing at the entrance of the tunnel, Jones opened his mouth slightly and emitted a sound wave. Soon, the outline of the tunnel appeared in his mind.

It looks like a corridor inside, with a very simple structure. Some places seem to have collapsed. It is true that both ends are dead ends.

"There is no other entrance, right?" Jones asked.

The wood elf nodded: "No other one was found. These walls do not seem to be blessed with magic, and should be able to break them. However, without your orders, we dare not act at will."

He lowered his head slightly and walked in. Behind him, Dora also lowered her head and walked in. The Wood Elf and Lucy needed to bend down to get in.

The broken gap is very small, but the space inside is not small.

In the darkness, the elf lit the fire. Suddenly, the surroundings were lit up.

This is a long passage, four meters high and eight meters wide, with no edges visible at first sight. There are hard stone bricks under the feet, and the walls are also stone bricks. The whole thing seems to be made of the same stone bricks. There is no mural or text.

Jones stretched out a hand towards the wood elf: "Give me Huo Xinzi, you can go out first."

"I'm going out? Don't you need help?" The wood elf handed over Huo Shinko.

"You have never been inside, so you can't help. And if there is danger, we won't care about you."

"Okay, then I'll leave first. Lord City." The wood elf bowed and bowed, then turned around and crawled out through the gap.

Only Jones, Dora and Lucy were left in the tunnel.

Jones looked at Lucy and asked, "Aunt Lucy, can you sense what is behind the wall?"

Lucy stood quietly, the soul fire in her eyes trembled slightly. After a while, she said softly: "There is a source of magic inside."

"Magic Source?" Jones was stunned.

Obviously, Jones couldn't fully understand what Lucy saw. So Lucy simply put one hand on Jones' shoulder armor.

Suddenly, a picture that had never been seen appeared in front of Jones.

The whole world suddenly became "transparent", yes, "transparent". But it was not the ordinary kind of transparency.

Everything around disappeared, and Jones seemed to be in a dark and boundless space. He could see a huge, luminous point that was tilted from his position thirty degrees downward, about five kilometers or so, like a sun. But it was not as hot and dazzling as the sun, but gentle. With this point as the center, there were dozens of points that were only one tenth of its size floating around.

These points are arranged in a certain pattern. There are tiny lines connected between points, and magic power flows on it.

At the same time, in Jones's field of vision, the wood elf outside the gap behind him became a highlight as small as a star, Dora next to him became a slightly larger highlight, and Jones himself was a highlight larger than Dora. On the contrary, Lucy completely disappeared from Jones' field of vision.

As Lucy retracted her hand, Jones's vision returned to normal.

"This is……"

"Magic perception, I suppressed the magic power, so you should not see me. Perspective magic cannot be used here, only magic perception magic can be used." As he said that, Lucy walked to the wall and reached out to touch the stone wall gently: "It is true that there is no magic on this wall, but there are materials for anti-perspective magic. It is not ordinary anti-perspective magic materials. It is impossible for me to see through."

"Even Aunt Lucy can't see through?" Jones was shocked.

"Yes, I can't see through, either. And I can guarantee that no lich in the Bone Light Holy Church can perform perspective magic on it."

"Then why can magic perception be used?"

"I don't know this anymore, I have to get it back and study it."

Hearing this, Jones smiled slowly, looked at the stone bricks on the wall incredible, and said, "So, there are really treasures in the remains. Even the walls are treasures?"

Dora's eyes widened in surprise.

"I think... yes." Lucy replied hesitantly.

"But, in this case, why don't heaven and hell directly destroy the ruins? If they wanted the things in the ruins, they should have been excavated long ago. But they didn't. If they didn't, why leave this ruins?"

"I don't know this." After sensing it carefully, Lucy said: "This magic source is a bit big, it may be the biggest magic source I have ever seen."

"Is it bigger than the magic source at the top of Dragon?"

"Sorry, I haven't seen that magic source. I happened to be in the soul box during the Battle of the Dragon Top. However, the largest magic source is the light-based magic source, which is larger than Jeremy's own magic source, which is certain."

Jeremy is the commander of the legion who led the Angels to fight against Grey in the Battle of Salt Fish Harbor, and negotiated with Ritchie as the paradise messenger in the Battle of Dragon Top. Among the heavenly forces in the entire Celtic continent, he is second only to the Holy Spirit.

"So, there are either very powerful magic circles or there is a very powerful person?" Jones asked.

"I prefer a powerful magic circle." Lucy replied.

"Okay, I get it." Jones took a step back and said, "Aunt Lucy, please break the wall. Please try to control the strength, we still want the things inside."

Dora also quietly gave way to the side.

"Okay." Lucy slowly raised her hand, stretched out her five bone claws, facing the wall, and then recited the spell.

With a "boom", it seemed as if the whole world was shaking.

The violent airflow carried mud and sand, and sprayed out along the gap in the tunnel, scaring the wood elf at the entrance of the cave.

The smoke and dust dissipated and appeared in front of Jones, the wall that was still moving.

"The magic is invalid?"

"It seems."

"Awesome, do the outer stone bricks have such a big mystery? It seems that we need Krimatha's secret more than the blood elves."

"You guys get out of the way."

"good."

Jones and Dora obediently made it to the distance.

Lucy directly blessed herself with a nine-level giant power technique. The nine-level giant power technique is the highest limit of the ability of giant power technique to bless her.

She moved forward step by step, buckled the bone fingers of her hands into the gaps of the stone bricks, and then used force secretly. However, she quickly gave up: "Even blessing magic is useless, it seems to be a primitive power."

As he said that, Lucy looked at Jones.

Jones walked over quickly and punched the wall.

There was a dull "boom" sound, and the wall seemed to shake twice, but that was all.

It's useful, but it's too little.

"Maybe we need to find a dragon to come over." Dora shook her head helplessly.

"Think about other solutions. If it really doesn't work, let Adale try it. His power is greater than mine." Jones walked in the passage with the fire letter and looked around.

I have to say that at the beginning, the ruins of Krimatha shocked Jones too much. It can be imagined that it is indeed full of mystery. However, it is embarrassing to not even step into it.

"Maybe Heaven and Hell don't want to destroy it, but they can't destroy it?" Lucy sighed: "I feel that this place is completely based on anti-magic design. Excluding magic, Heaven and Hell are indeed not as powerful as the dragon clan."

"Aunt Lucy, in the era of Kry Martha, have you ever been to the human city?" Jones asked.
