Chapter 83 Crisis in the Shadow

Count de Guzman was a little embarrassed. It wasn't that he didn't want Brian to go. Since he revealed this matter to Brian, he treated Brian as a family member.

But the situation in the crypt is indeed a bit complicated. Even if there are many people protecting it, it is still a bit dangerous. But Locke on the side couldn't help but said.

"Father, don't worry, I will take little Stoll with us tomorrow.

Besides, are there dozens of intermediate and high-level warriors practicing there? There won’t be any problem.”

After hearing what Locke said, Count De Guzman pondered for a moment, and then reluctantly agreed to his son's suggestion. At the same time, he arranged for Suger and Brian to go together, so that he could take this opportunity to teach Brian about his fighting spirit.

Brian lived in Lyon for a period of time when he was a child, and Count De Guzman was still impressed by his talent in cultivating fighting spirit.

So he also hoped that the drop of blood could be helpful to Brian. Afterwards, they talked about some trivial matters until late at night.

Brian told him to leave, and Butler Stoll arranged for another innocent-looking maid to take care of Brian. Brian didn't care about this, as he had completely adapted to life in his grandfather's house.

Just after everyone rested and returned to silence, a dark figure quietly left the Earl's Mansion and came to the dry well outside the city. After seeing that there was no one around, he turned over and jumped in.

The dark shadow of the dry well fell gently, and the floating soil at the bottom of the well was swept away to reveal a secret door.

The shadow entered the secret door and walked through the long underground passage to the exit. When he saw the starry sky again, the shadow had arrived at a small forest, and a skinny old man was leaning against a big tree waiting for him.

The black shadow chatted with the skinny old man for a few words. The skinny old man nodded with satisfaction and turned around to leave. He walked into the woods for a few moments and then disappeared.

The black shadow sneered after seeing the old man disappear, and did not return from the dark passage, but also hid in the darkness without knowing where he was going.

A new crisis has arrived, but Brian is still immersed in sleep without realizing it.

In fact, Brian doesn't like to get up early. When he goes to school, he goes to school covered in stars and stars, and goes home wearing a moon and stars.

After graduation, he went to work wearing a bright moon and shining brightly, and went home wearing a bright moonlight. His more than ten years of study were really in vain.

What's even more annoying is that after finally catching up with the traveling army, a young nobleman can finally relax for a while, but he still had to get up early in the previous half month to train with the soldiers.

Finally, we arrived at grandpa's house and could have a good rest, but someone still disturbed Brian's sweet dream.

Locke knocked on Brian's door just before dawn, which made Brian feel the urge to kill his relatives.

But in the end, for Tina's sake, she held back. The door was opened from the outside and a group of maids rushed in. They washed and dressed according to the same procedure as before.

Because the clothes I wore this time were for cultivation, they were cut to fit fairly well, the fabric used was also very flexible, and the steps to put them on were much simpler.

It didn't take long for Brian to tidy up. Brian was taken away by Locke as soon as he finished dressing. Young people are very curious about new things.

Locke thought about these things all night after hearing about the magic of the crypt. Although Locke is also the second son and has the same talent as Brian, it does not hinder his strong heart.

So I dragged Brian away early in the morning, hoping to see the magical crypt earlier.

After getting on the carriage, Brian saw that Little Storr and General Sugar were also in the team, but they were all guarding the outside of the convoy, one in front and one behind.

Originally, Brian planned to ride a horse, but his uncle obviously wanted to ride in a carriage, so Brian had no choice but to do as he pleased.

The carriage moved forward slowly in the city. At this time, there was no hustle and bustle of the festival. Brian observed the common people in the city through the carriage window.

People in big cities are obviously different from small towns like Phoenix Town. Not everyone has a smile on their face, but there are also very few who are full of sadness.

Whether they are plainly dressed civilians or wealthy people who spend a lot of money, they seem to be quite satisfied with their current situation.

But compared to the people in Pest, the people here are obviously more lazy, maybe it has something to do with the weather. It's not summer yet, and Brian feels a little bit hot.

There is some relationship between the happiness of the common people and the prosperity of Lyon. This also shows that Count de Guzman has good governance, unlike other lords who only know how to suppress the serfs.

Through observations over the past few days, Brian found that Count De Guzman was more willing to give people opportunities to take the initiative to realize their own value and obtain more wealth.

As the lord, the countess got her share from this wealth.

From this point of view, Count de Guzman is more like a successful businessman than a noble lord.

The carriage left the city and walked on the country road. Brian just wanted to quietly enjoy the unique beauty of the south.

But Locke kept talking and took the trouble to introduce the surrounding situation to Brian. Brian waited patiently for Locke to finish. He knew that Locke meant well, but Brian really didn't need Locke's introduction.

Just when Locke was talking enthusiastically, the carriage had already arrived in the mountains and forests. There were no decent roads here, and the carriage was very difficult to move. Brian and the others had to get off the car and mount the horses to go to their destination.

Fortunately for Brian, traveling on horseback is not a problem for him. He has even ridden a gryphon, let alone riding a mountain road.

Uncle Locke was in a bad situation. He was a junior knight and of course he could ride a horse, but the roads here were rugged and the horses were even more bumpy.

In order to prevent my butt from suffering, I could only summon up my fighting spirit and protect my body. After walking for a while, I really couldn't hold on anymore.

Fortunately, Locke reached this mysterious crypt before he collapsed from exhaustion.

When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, as they said, there was a cold air blowing against their face. Brian followed the group to the depths of the cave and saw the wonderful sight that everyone said.

Brian looked at the rolling magma flow, and the fiery red magma slowly flowed in the two-meter-wide crack.

Occasionally, huge bubbles emerge from the magma, but then burst with a slight sound.

Brian observed these bubbles carefully and found that there was a little purple flame in the bubbles. This flame became transparent and disappeared without a trace once it left the magma.

It seems that the cold in the cave is caused by these things, but since these purple flames are so cold, why not cool the magma into stones.

With doubts, Brian opened the system panel and opened the search item in the system mall. The system soon cleared up his doubts.

It turns out that these flames do not belong to this world at all. The protection of magma can ensure that its properties remain unchanged and its original temperature is always maintained.
