Li Changhe and Qiu Wentian almost got up at the sa ti, and a spatial fluctuation flashed by. Imdiately, they entered battle mode!
Blue flas illuminated the old-fashioned living room, and the ridiculous little bear apron on Li Changhe’s body turned into the majestic and fierce [Great Wall Mountain Armor], with a chanical bow already drawn in his hand.
And Qiu Wentian, she put on that black cloak again. The weird sword case fell onto the floor, and she was already holding one of the soft swords.
At this mont, Qiu Wentian no longer looked like the youthful and beautiful girl next door from before.
The weapons in the sword case were exuding an overwhelming killing aura. Who knows how many beings this girl has killed.
Both of them were experienced [Players] in battle.
As they took out their battle equipnt simultaneously, they made a tacit cooperation. Li Changhe raised his bow and backed down while Qiu Wentian held her sword in front.
All the clues in this task pointed out that the king is the enemy!
At this mont, soone claid to be the champion of the previous round and the current king. Isn’t that like a boss revealing itself?
"... Sister."
Li Changhe....
After a slight pause in the synthesized voice, it continued, "The dialogue function of this life-support system... is unstable."
"Well, your heavy breathing... has such an unfortunate timing." Qiu Wentian saw that the weapons in the sword case did not make a sound, which ant that the other party did not have any ill intentions.
She dropped one hand and gestured to Li Changhe behind her.
Li Changhe activated the Hawk Eye Magic Eye and glanced at the elderly people in front.
At the sa ti, he used the Cold Reading Skill to observe their expressions.
They didn’t care about Li Changhe and Qiu Wentian’s actions, neither taking counterasures nor speaking out against them.
Instead, there was a sense of relief.
"This is a test to see our hostility towards the king," Li Changhe thought, taking off the [Equipnt] and sitting back on the sofa.
"So, the champion Heroic Spirit’s legacy from the previous round is actually you?"
In the champion’s ssage, the 12th champion left information for the [Players] to contact Carn Heavy Industries, apparently having left sothing behind.
Due to the family’s decline, Luca was unable to find the detailed record of the previous Seven Kings War. But at least he knew that the champion had left sothing behind, allowing the Carn Family to develop rapidly within just 20 years and becoming a powerful existence.
This was the direct reason why Li Changhe dealt with the arrow-kneed. That [Player] wouldn’t have left anything good behind simply for no reason, it must have been accompanied by other information.
Unfortunately, from the ti the Sword Rank was summoned to the attack on Carn Heavy Industries, there was no further communication between the two. Later, the cavalry was eliminated right in front of Li Changhe.
"That Heroic Spirit saved my life and let ... know the secrets that outsiders can’t know." The woman in the container didn’t move her mouth, as if she was frozen inside; only her eyes could open. Even speaking relied on a synthesized voice.
But there was a certain pain in it: "It also made live forever in this container!"
As twin magicians, they possess an extrely special ability to share a part of their emotions and mories.
A ntal induction between siblings? It seed a bit mysterious to Li Changhe and others.
However, in the magicians’ understanding, it was the resonance caused by their extrely similar Magic Circuits.
Although extrely rare, it was not unheard of.
When the older brother beca a Contractor, the Carn Family even thought of using this ability to gain knowledge and authority of the king.
After all, becoming the king ant one had to take on the responsibility of guarding mysteries. They could no longer be in contact with outsiders.
And it cut off all family ties and bonds, becoming a mysterious gatekeeper.
But with this shared power, the twin sister could catch a glimpse of the mystery.
What truth is hidden in the mysteries guarded by the generations of kings?
This was the ideal that magicians pursued throughout their lives.
At first, that Caster Rank Heroic Spirit didn’t raise any objections against the ideas of the Carn Family.
On the contrary, they discussed magical knowledge with them and enhanced each other’s strength.
Together with the other Carn family magicians, they devised one plan after another.
They forced their opponents into desperate situations several tis, gaining the upper hand.
But after a certain Heroic Spirit was eliminated, he suddenly stopped all plans and began to contact other Heroic Spirits.
He said at the ti: "We have been misled!"
At that ti, the [Players] should have unlocked the ssages from the forr champions.
The information in the ssages was almost an explicit hint.
He soon found an ally, but unfortunately, it didn’t change anything.
The other Heroic Spirits had no intention of cooperating and, instead, launched a targeted attack plan against them because of their alliance.
After that chaotic battle, only the Caster Rank Heroic Spirit survived.
"What a clever guy who mastered people’s needs and desires so delicately," the Caster Rank Heroic Spirit sighed and left a strange device just before leaving.
"Wait, according to our family’s records, the champion left so kind of new magic imprinting technology." When the old man spoke of this, Luca interrupted, "That’s why the Carn family developed so rapidly."
"It’s true, I was there at the ti." Another old man smiled, he was one of the parties involved: "The new technology, we already had so ideas during the discussions with him. It’s not so much that he gave it to us, but rather that we researched it together. At that ti, your family’s recordkeeper wasn’t strong enough and didn’t get close to us. It was false information we released."
"Oh..." Luca’s face turned dark, nearly forgetting that these were the people involved.
"After the Caster Rank Heroic Spirit disappeared, it wasn’t long before the older brother disappeared as well. We tried to stop him, intercept him, but all failed. The next ti we saw him, he had beco the king!"
"But he’s not the sa person." The synthesized voice ca from the container, "The mont he beca the king, I almost died."
"Just the pain that was conveyed almost killed ."
"It’s hard to imagine what kind of suffering my older brother experienced. The man called the king shouldn’t be my older brother."
"Then, countless mixed mories and knowledge flooded my brain." The woman in the container blinked, "Luca, now you should understand, how did our Carn Heavy Industries develop so many magical tools? It was through resonance, stealing technology. However, the price of this is too high, too high."
"So, you’re saying a dangerous guy took the place of your brother and beca the king using your brother’s appearance?" Li Changhe asked, "Your brother..."
"He’s still alive, his pain is being transferred to constantly. Just as always... So kind of evil spirit is occupying his body. Now, my brother can’t hold on any longer. I can feel his body decaying, and his vitality is fading."
"He’s about to die, so the Seven Kings War has begun."
"The evil spirit is choosing a new host. This is the secret of the king."
"What an irony, the king who guards the mystery."
"Turns out to be the vessel of an evil spirit!"
