Chapter 21 The Land of Eternal Life
The enthronement ceremony of the first-class consul of the underworld was much simpler than Lance imagined.
After Lance agreed, Alfred gave him a basic item, he patted Lance on the shoulder and never said a word to others here, leaving the place directly.
Until the huge bone dragon and the serious pale knight disappeared at the portal, everyone was reluctant to react.
The Nine-level consuls in the Dead World put too much pressure on them.
He has a shocking temperament, which makes people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts. Although he did not intend to target a group of wizards, this natural momentum cannot be concealed. Thanks to the worst of these people, the wizards are also the worst of their mental power. No matter how weak the wizards are, they are much stronger than ordinary mortals. If a mortal stands here, they may be scared by the breath of death.
Lance swept the basic item roughly, which included a gray stone. The runes on the stone showed that this thing could be used to summon a flying skeleton war horse, which was one of the standard features of the first-class consul; a scroll of the Undead Language mastery, after activation, can master the Undead Language to the realm of mastery in a short time; a badge named [MGM's Appreciation], and the power above was personally attached by His Highness MGM, the king of the Dead World.
Lance pinned MGM's praise on his chest and automatically became the first-level consul of the Dead World. This badge is not only the symbol of the spokesperson of the God of Death, but also has two powerful functions. The first function is to strengthen the mental power once a day. Although it is not much strengthened, it can be imagined that in the near future, Lance's mental power will exceed that of the wizard of the same level; the other function is to store the mark of death. Once Lance kills a necromancer, [MGM's praise] will automatically plunder the mark of death on his body.
After the mark of death in the badge was stored to a certain level, other consuls from the underworld naturally came to hand over to him.
What he needs to do is actually very simple, but when he encounters a necromancer, he can kill it. Of course, if the enemy is very strong, Lance will not be foolish to die.
In short, being able to become a consul of the underworld is also a surprise. After all, nothing can be said to be an administrative organization that has entered the world of the Dead. Although it has not been entrenched in the throne of the monarchs, Alfred's strength cannot be underestimated. At least he is the first legendary figure that Lance has ever seen.
The Night Demon's clone is only at level three. It looks similar to Katerina and is incomparable to Alfred who came to the original.
...
By this time, the wizards of the Flower Scorpion Society had already formed a ball and no longer showed a trend of surrounding them.
Although they have a large number of people, they are extremely weak in momentum. Lance noticed that several of the advanced apprentices had already fought two battles and wanted to escape immediately.
After all, Lance killed Ferrey and Valerie in front of them, and had a connection with such a powerful person, so they could not be afraid.
"Mr. Lance..."
Kevin's low voice sounded, his eyes flashed. He seemed to be struggling: "You killed your traitor and killed that guy Fere. This should be enough to calm your anger. There is no need to fight between us. We are different from the cave demon. We are both human wizards and can work together."
"What's more, although your strength is strong, it will not be good for you, right?"
Seeing that Lance didn't say a word, he thought he had been convinced, he immediately continued: "Although we had some misunderstandings before, there are no absolute enemies in this world, and we can be partners and even friends. You came for the wealth of the castle, but we are pursuing the legend about the [Land of Eternal Life]. There is no absolute conflict between us, right?"
"The land of immortality?" Lance asked thoughtfully.
Kevin's eyelids twitched. Seeing the inquiring look in Lance's eyes, he remembered his powerful appearance just now, and gritted his teeth and said:
"It is indeed a place of immortality. We came here following the notes of a senior wizard from Kurosawa. If you have any knowledge of our Flower Scorpion Society, you should know that our lifelong goal is to pursue immortality!"
"Before, we had two studies on immortality that had problems. This is the last clue we had on hand about immortality."
He took out a thick notebook from his arms and shook it and said, "If you are willing to cooperate with us instead of continuing to be hostile, I can show you this notebook. This is a precious relic left by the senior wizard, which records all kinds of magical things from the Land of Eternal Life."
"And, if I'm not wrong, the so-called place of immortality is on this small island!"
After saying that, Ke Wen pointed with his right hand and pointed to the mysterious lake.
"Eternal life?" Lance frowned slightly and looked at Dora.
The latter shook his head slightly, obviously knowing nothing about this matter. The book of revelation written by Dora himself did not record anything related.
"Wait...Revelation?"
A sudden light of inspiration flashed in Lance's heart.
He clenched his fists and thought of something key.
"Did the senior wizard you mentioned visit the Land of Eternal Life a hundred years ago?" Lance asked flatly.
"Hmm?..." Kevin was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Lance knew even this, and he just nodded: "It's true."
Dora's body shook slightly, and a trace of disbelief appeared in her eyes.
Lance breathed a sigh of relief and said in an unquestionable tone:
"Take that book, and then, you can leave. I won't cooperate with you, but you're right, there are no eternal enemies. In such a dangerous place, there is no need for us to continue fighting in the internal struggle, maybe some enemies are lurking in the secret."
Even though Cowen was very unhappy with Lance's tone, he was still frightened by Lance's momentum. After thinking about it, he still had a copy, so he threw the thick notebook over.
"Let's go!"
For a moment, the wizards of the Flower Scorpion Society were relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, as if the tide was gone.
Soon, in the jungle under the night sky, there seemed to be only a few of them left.
"Are you okay?" Lance walked over and asked.
Landry shook his head, but there was still a hint of anger in his eyes.
"Why let them go?" Dora asked, "You have the ability to kill them!"
Lance smiled bitterly, and he raised his hand, and saw that the magic sword with purple-red color just now began to retreat and gradually became Lance's left hand.
But at this time, there was a slight swelling on his left hand, probably because of excessive consumption.
"My trump card has time limit. Even if Kevin didn't retreat just now, I was going to find a reason to leave." He shook his head and said, "Under normal conditions, we are not their opponents."
The three of them were shocked, looked at each other, and a trace of fear flashed through their hearts. If Lance's momentum hadn't shocked Kovin and the two sides continued to fight, it might have been difficult for them to escape!
"So we have to leave now, and talk about other things later."
Under the instructions of Lance, the group of four people packed up Valerie's relics and walked deep into the rainforest.
About twenty minutes later, they found a hidden tree hole on the edge of the mysterious lake and settled it down.
"Now, we can discuss the purpose of the people of the Flower Scorpion Society."
Lance shook the notebook in his hand and said.
"A hundred years ago, it was exactly the same time when my grandfather entered Sivare with the golden sword." Dora pondered: "This should not be a coincidence."
"That's true." Lance opened the notebook and looked at it, saying, "But this notebook should not be written by your grandfather."
"Why?" Dora's face showed a clear look of disappointment.
Lance shrugged, pointed to the signature on his notebook and said, "[Adolf J. Mason], unless your grandfather wrote this book with a pseudonym."
"That's definitely not." Dora shook her head. She had never heard of this name.
"The travel-based prose is very unorganized, and most of it is in chronological order. However, I am not very familiar with Kurosawa's calendar, so I can only read it one page after another. I haven't seen anything useful yet. I wonder if Ko Wen took a laptop and tried to persuade us."
Lance continued to watch, trying to find records of the land of immortality from the book. But after reading the first half of the book, he found nothing.
"In fact, it doesn't matter whether we can get enough information from this book." He pondered: "The key is your revelation. That was left to you by your ancestors, and it must be a very important clue."
"But in the second volume of Revelation, there is only a prophetic poem...ah!"
Speaking of this, Dora couldn't help but scream.
Landry said in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Sacra, who had been silent for a long time, said slowly: "I understand. The things in that poem have come true one by one."
While speaking, Lance had already written the poem on a blank piece of paper.
[There are beautiful palaces in the past between the white stones and the bad waters]
【The devil lurks in the shade of the tree, and the god of death dances in the dark night】
【One-sixth of the king's heroic spirit is whispering:】
【The Coffin of the Swallowwood Crying in the Woods…】
"Sakra is right. We have encountered most of the things on it."
Lance touched his nose and said incrediblely: "That's all the difference."
Everyone came over and saw Lance drawing two red circles on the paper.
"One-sixth of the king's heroic spirit is whispering: the coffin of the paulownia,"
His voice was very low: "These two sentences are not fulfilled yet."
However, at this moment, a rustling sound of water suddenly came from everyone's ears.
