"What did you say? The guardian secret power of the castle was activated?" The old duke had just dealt with the sudden incident outside and returned to the castle. He immediately heard the Earl of Belmont return to what had happened in the past few days, such as the sky was covered by thunderstorms, which thunderstorms touched the guardian secret power of the castle, etc. He was completely confused by these things, especially the incident of the triggering of the guardian secret power.

As the old duke, what was the secret of the guardian power hidden in the castle? It was just that he thought that unless the gods attacked the castle personally, it would be absolutely impossible to trigger the secret power. Now being triggered made him feel a little worried.

What worries the old duke even more is that the guardian secret power of the castle is related to the success rate of another thing. If this trigger causes the guardian secret power of the castle to be weakened, then the things that the ancestors have been planning may have problems.

Thinking of this, the old duke immediately walked towards the big bell tower in the castle, because there was something there that could help him check the loss of the guardian secret power in the castle. At the same time, he also said seriously to Count Belmont who was following closely behind and other family members responsible for managing the castle: "You will tell me the story carefully now, the more detailed the better."

Seeing that the old duke was like this, others dared not neglect, so they elected Count Belmont to tell the story at that time, while they checked for some missing content that Count Belmont ignored or did not see.

"First a thunderstorm appeared in the sky, and then the thunderstorm appeared in the castle, which then triggered the security of the castle?" When the group came to the bottom of the castle's bell tower, Earl Belmont almost told the situation at that time. The old duke stopped, showed a meditative look, muttered to himself, and then asked: "Did you investigate the cause of the thunderstorm in the sky at that time?"

"There is an investigation, but no results." A family member in charge of the castle guards replied immediately.

The old duke then asked again: "Which area in the castle after that?"

"On the side of the Ancestral God Spirit." The man quickly answered, adding: "There is a trace left on the thunderstorm. I have sent someone to close the area. Do you want to go and see?"

The old duke then asked, "Who was there when the thunderstorm broke out?"

"No one is there." The man shook his head, but then he seemed to think of something, adding: "But when the first thunderstorm occurred, Ms. Sylvia's husband, Mr. Leo Dodd, seemed to have been with the Ancestral Spirit, as if he was studying the architecture there."

"Leo Dodd?" The old duke frowned slightly after hearing this, and did not continue asking, but asked others to stay under the big bell tower. He took Count Belmont into the bell tower, climbed up the stairs, and came to the wall clock at the top.

"Father, what are we doing here?" Count Belmont asked in confusion.

"Shut up and stand aside and watch." The old duke didn't have the patience to explain to him, and directly scolded him, then walked to a coronal platform under the wall clock that looked like a decoration, and reached out to cover the scale of the coronal platform.

Immediately afterwards, a light shot out from the coronal stage, covering the old Duke and Earl of Belmont. Earl of Belmont wanted to resist at first, but in an instant the light disappeared. They were no longer in the bell tower, but came to a square room, which was filled with some things that he could not understand at all, but he knew that these things should be related to the legendary Original Land, because the appearance characteristics of these things were very similar to some of the magical tools of the Original Land owned by the family.

Just as Count Belmont was attracted by the items in the room, the old duke did not immediately explain the situation here. Instead, he walked to a operating table, sat on the chair, placed his hand on the two metal balls on the armrest of the chair, and then said: "Activate the self-test."

As the old duke's command fell, the wall in front of his seat immediately disappeared and turned into a deep black hole. Then a complete stereoscopic map of Belmont Castle appeared in the black hole, and light emitted like ripples from specific locations of each building on the stereoscopic map, slowly sweeping through each building around. Where the light swept through, there will be different colors of light to form various complex pictures covering the surface of the building.

Earl Belmont was immediately attracted by the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but walk behind the old duke's seat and look at the three-dimensional view of the castle in front of him.

Soon he discovered that something was wrong with the stereoscopic image. Although each building on the stereoscopic image was exactly the same as the castle building he remembered, the area covered by the buildings was much larger than the areas covered by various buildings in the castle. According to his estimate, if it was built according to the size and coverage area of ​​the buildings on the stereoscopic image, the area of ​​Belmont Castle should eventually be more than ten times larger than the current Belmont Castle.

After discovering this, Earl of Belmont suddenly had a strong doubt in his heart and wanted to ask the old duke, but after seeing the old duke focusing on the three-dimensional image, he did not dare to ask, so he could only think by himself.

However, this soon reminded him of a rumor that might be related to the current situation. This rumor has been circulating within the Belmont family for a long time. It is about some unexplained strange phenomena in Belmont Castle. It is rumored that Belmont Castle has an extremely powerful force that can make all people entering the castle smaller, so those entering the castle will feel that the area inside the castle is much larger than the area of ​​the castle that looks outside.

Now that I saw the extremely clear three-dimensional picture of the castle in front of me, and when I think of the rumors, Count Belmont couldn't help but feel that this rumors might be true.

At this moment, the last scanning light on the castle stereoscopic view disappeared, and the colorful patterns on the surface of the castle's buildings made the entire castle look dazzling.

However, the old duke was not affected by the complicated patterns and meaningless symbols on the castle stereoscopic view. He soon found the place of the bell tower among many buildings. Under his control, the castle stereoscopic view was magnified many times, and the center of the picture was always on the bell tower, or more correctly on the wall clock at the top of the bell tower.

When the screen enlarges the wall clock to occupy the center of the entire screen, the old duke stops magnifying and instead looks at a cup-shaped pattern on the surface of the wall clock.

I saw that about 80% of the color on the surface of this pattern is golden yellow, and about 20% is dark purple.

After seeing the color ratio of the pattern, the old duke breathed a sigh of relief. Although the castle's guardian secret power was unexpectedly stimulated, the guardian secret power consumed was much less than he expected. Judging from the existing guardian secret power, the family's plans planned for many years should not be affected.

The old duke did not hide his emotions. The Earl of Belmont on the side could clearly see that the old duke had relaxed a lot at this moment, so he asked carefully: "Father, what is this place? Why didn't I know that there was such a place in the castle before?"

"This is the control room of all the guardian secrets of the castle, and it is also the most important secret of our family. Let's not talk about you, the entire family, except me, does not know that there is such a place in the castle, because only the patriarchs of the Belmont family in history know about everything about this place." Because the plan was not affected, the old duke's mood improved a lot, and his tone was not as fast as before.

When the Earl of Belmont heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Since only the patriarch knows, then you are bringing me here now..."

"You will be the patriarch in the future, and you should also know the secrets in these castles." The old duke frowned, then sighed, and said, "But it doesn't matter whether you know it or not, because in no time, everything here will be swallowed up by volcanic lava along with the castle."

Hearing the old duke's words, Earl Belmont was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Father, what are you talking about? What castle is swallowed by lava? We didn't plan to relocate the castle as a whole before..."

The old duke shook his head and said, "Those plans are just to convince some delusional guys in the family. In fact, the possibility of the overall relocation of the castle was almost zero from the beginning."

As he said that, he told his heirs all the hidden secrets in Belmongo Castle and some secrets of the family to his heirs. Although most of the secrets should not be known to anyone other than the patriarch, the old duke felt that there might be some variables in the ancestor's plan this time, and he might also be in danger, so he told all the secrets that the patriarch should know to his son in advance, so that when the worst situation occurs, the Count Belmont can successfully inherit the position of the patriarch and allow the family to continue.

Although Count Belmont is not a particularly smart person, he can also feel something strange from the Duke's attitude. So when the Duke was narrating various family secrets, even though he was full of various doubts, he was shocked in his heart, but he still resisted the urge to ask questions, listened honestly, and was anxious.

It took about an hour or so before the old duke told Count Belmont all the important things in the family, especially the storage location of the device that is crucial to the family inheritance. He repeatedly reminded Count Belmont to use the equipment as soon as possible after inheriting the position of the patriarch, and never use it before becoming the patriarch.

Earl Belmont did not understand why the set of things that the old duke called the inheritance device is so important, so he asked tentatively.

"Knowledge, that device stores great knowledge," said the old duke without any concealment: "When you heard me tell the secrets of those castles and families just now, do you not understand many places and don't understand what it means?"

Earl of Belmont nodded.

The old duke said calmly: "It doesn't matter. You don't need to know what these secrets mean now. When you become the patriarch and use the inheritance device to receive the knowledge stored in it, you will naturally understand." After saying that, he sat up from the chair, signaled to Count Belmont to sit on the chair, and placed his hand on the two metal balls on the armrest according to his method, and said: "Don't panic no matter what happens later, just watch it."

As the old duke finished speaking, the Earl of Belmont, sitting on the chair, suddenly found that the scene in front of him changed instantly. It was no longer in that strange room, but in Belmont Castle. However, at this moment, he seemed to have become a transparent person. The family members coming and going around could not see him. Even if he stood beside others, others could not detect his existence. When he tried to touch others with his hands, an invisible force would form on the surface of other people's bodies and automatically let him slide aside.

After confirming his current state, Count Belmont looked at other places in the castle. At this moment, Belmont Castle showed him a completely different side. Different patterns appeared on all the buildings of the castle. These patterns were similar to the architectural patterns he had just seen from the three-dimensional picture of the castle. However, now they look more intuitive and feel more deeply, because the various light emitted from the patterns directly penetrated his body and created a wonderful connection with the blood power in his body, giving him the illusion that he was strong enough to compete with the gods.

"It would be great if I could fly!" Earl Belmont felt that he could not see the entire castle like he had just seen the three-dimensional picture of the castle, and he couldn't help but have an idea in his mind.

And at the moment this thought arose, he found himself flying up from the ground and soon flew into the air, and he stopped until the idea of ​​stopping appeared in his mind.

At this time, the entire Belmont Castle was at his feet, and he was able to get a glimpse of the whole castle in a more comprehensive and intuitive way.

He found that the light emitted by the patterns on the castle buildings was not chaotic, but was very regular. It was almost a color that represented a complex of buildings in the castle. The strongest light among them was the complex of the Ancestral God Spirit. The light emitted there had reached a dazzling level. The light from other parts of the castle was not as good as the light of this area when combined.

This scene instantly made him remember many rumors in the family that could not be verified. One of them seemed to be related to this. It is said that the area of ​​the Ancestral God Spirit contains great power, and that power can even be comparable to that of the gods. If someone can understand the secret of the power contained therein, he will master the power to compete with the gods.

Regarding this rumor, his attitude was the same as that of most people in the family, and he believed that it was just a family who deceived the children. Only some mindless children would believe that there would be such absurd rumors, but now it seems that this rumor seems to be true.
