Chapter 621: Chapter 435: Various Opinions on the Blank Era_2
“It doesn’t seem to have any particular features.”
After pondering for a moment, the old magician shook his head and said, “The ancient ruins are a relatively complete underground complex, much like a secret underground barracks or warehouse.
Besides some rotten weapons, tools, and the Mysterious Box found in a secret chamber, there were no other significant discoveries.
Moreover, judging from the architectural style and murals, it doesn’t belong to the commonly seen Dwarf Clan ruins in the Coldflame Region. Therefore, which race it belongs to is still up for debate.”
“I see.” Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully upon hearing the explanation.
Before this, Leo Ray had already learned of the numerous dwarf ruins found in the Coldflame Kingdom over the past few centuries.
Dragon’s Lair, where they have been before, was built upon a dwarf ruin.
Of course, this also included the ancestral sleeping ground in the Underground City of the Dragon’s Lair – where King West resided.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about all this,
the old magician continued while stroking his silvery beard, “However, I can confirm that the unknown race’s ruins also date back to the Era of Blankness.”
“Understood.”
Nodding thoughtfully, Leo Ray asked further, “Master Calvin, what are your thoughts on the close proximity of these two ancient ruins?”
“Judging by the connecting passages and ventilation systems, the unknown race’s ancient ruins where the Mysterious Box was discovered are very complete. It is fully established that they originally existed in that location.”
The old magician nodded to Leo Ray and continued, “However, the sudden appearance of Titan Clan’s ancient ruins is very odd, as if they did not originally belong here. That’s the very reason why I cannot fathom it.”
“Is that so?”
Hearing the same doubts as his own, Leo Ray nodded slightly and inquired again, “Master Calvin, I must admit to having an interest in archaeology. What are your thoughts on the Blank Age three thousand years ago?”
“I didn’t expect a young man like Mr. Christopher to have such a wide range of interests. Since you’re interested, I’ll tell you everything I know.”
Smiling slightly at Leo Ray, appreciation and admiration appeared on the old magician’s aged face as he continued, “Currently, the consensus among the Human Clan’s archaeological community is that a large-scale war and natural disasters occurred in the mysterious Blank Age.”
“However, due to the complete annihilation of the known ancient great human empires of that era and the lack of textual records, no one knows exactly what happened.”
At this point, the old magician paused for a moment before continuing, “Of course, opinions vary regarding the truth of that era. There are theories of meteorite impacts, magical disasters, human-dragon wars, and so on.”
“However, each theory lacks definitive evidence, and they’re all based on various legends passed down after the Blank Age.”
In conclusion, for today’s Human Clan archaeology community, it remains an era shrouded in mystery.”
“I see, the Blank Age is indeed full of intrigue.”
Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and smirked slightly.
After Leo Ray finished talking with Calvin, Lord Asher, accompanied by Gael, the supervisor, approached them and said, “Mr. Christopher, although these Titan Clan’s Giant Axes are tarnished and in poor condition, they should still be of interest to some aristocratic collectors.”
At this point, Lord Asher glanced at the expressionless Red Night and tentatively asked Leo Ray, “What do you think…”
Without a doubt, without Leo Ray’s involvement, this ruin exploration party would have perished long ago.
Therefore, even after agreeing to divide the spoils in half, Lord Asher still felt somewhat apprehensive.
After all, just the appearance fee for a Tier 5 Powerhouse would probably be enough to cover all the spoils here, let alone the many lives at stake.
“Lord Asher, don’t worry. The spoils will be distributed according to our previous agreement,” Leo Ray said with a faint smile, understanding the other’s concerns.These mottled giant axes were already severely damaged and corroded, making it impossible to upgrade or disassemble them.
Moreover, from the majority of the weapons’ notes.
The primary materials for forging were mostly common metal resources, and there was no need to re-melt them.
Of course, this only applied to the ordinary battle axes at the Tier 4 level; Leo Ray wouldn’t let go of the Tier 5 weapons and above.
“Thank you very much, Mr. Christopher, please feel free to choose first!”
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Lord Asher’s face, and he nodded repeatedly, saying, “There are over a hundred axes here, and it’s impossible to tell their original tier. Please, Mr. Christopher, choose at your convenience!”
“I shall humbly obey then.”
Slightly nodding, Leo Ray waved his hand and first put the only former Tier 6 Battle Axe in front of him into the Space Bracelet.
Under these circumstances, while others couldn’t see any clues, Leo Ray had reference to the Attribute Column and was the only one who didn’t fall within this range of people.
And so, as Leo Ray casually strolled through the Steel Forest, he also put ten more giant Tier 5 level axes into the Space Bracelet.
Seeing this, the faces of Lord Asher and others couldn’t help but reveal a shocked expression again.
According to the size of these giant axes, even the Storage Rings of high-ranking aristocrats could only fit one at most.
But Mr. Christopher had already put more than a dozen in a row, the storage space was simply terrifying.
“As for the remaining nearly 40, let both of you, the Knights’ Captains, help me cooperate with Lord Asher in disposing of them.”
Nodding to Tina and Layne beside him, Leo Ray continued, “According to our previous distribution method, you can each take one-third from the 50 axes I got.”
“But Mr. Christopher, we’ve hardly done anything, and you saved Tia’s life at the crucial moment earlier. We, the Blue Rose Knights, can’t accept such a great gift!”
Upon hearing this, Tina lifted the guard on her face and hurriedly said.
Layne, holding the Knight Helmet beside her, also nodded in agreement, “Mr. Christopher, we can’t accept such a huge gift without merit!”
“Then just think of it as you’re keeping them for me.” Smiling slightly, Leo Ray patted both of them on the shoulders and said, “If you refuse again, there won’t be a next time.”
Hearing this, Tina and Layne looked at each other, then gratefully said, “Thank you very much, Mr. Christopher. We will not be ungracious.”
“Very good, I believe we will meet again soon.”
Smiling faintly, Leo Ray turned and said to Lord Asher and the Old Magician beside him, “Lord Asher, Master Calvin, I have some other matters to attend to, I’ll leave this place to you two. If there’s anything else, just notify Master Gael, he has a way to contact me.”
Finishing his words, Leo Ray nodded slightly to Kelsey’s father, Gael.
“Understood, it was a great honor for me to explore the ruins with Mr. Christopher this time.”
On the other side, Lord Asher immediately responded, “I will take you out of here right away.”
“Hehe, I look forward to our next meeting with Mr. Christopher.” The old magician next to him also spoke up.
In this way, after temporarily settling the two Knight Captains and the knights here to deal with the aftermath.
Leo Ray, , along with Taylor and Gideon Black hidden beneath the cloaks, left the ancient ruins of the Titan Clan under the escort of Lord Asher.
Next, after roaming around another unknown ancient relic site with the group.
Leo Ray got back on the tall horse he had ridden earlier and headed straight for Viennas City.
As the wind raced by, the clear voice of rang into Leo Ray’s ears through Mind Talk: “My Lord, regarding this extremely discordant ancient Titan Clan temple that appeared here all by itself, I seem to have some ideas…”
