Chapter 825: Discovering the target
Under the temptation of Lao Xie's money, almost all the people involved in this matter went crazy. Every one of them opened their eyes wide and searched desperately for relevant clues, even forgetting about fatigue and the passage of time.
However, they were not iron men after all. As time went by, they finally started to look tired after persisting for a few days, even if they worked tirelessly. But even though their eyes were bloodshot and they were crying non-stop, even though they were so hungry that they could hardly turn the page, they persevered desperately for the reward of 10,000 gold coins and the appreciation from the top.
Finally, on the fourth day, a very senior administrator suddenly shouted excitedly: "Haha, I found it!"
While he was speaking, he held up a small ancient book with a yellow cover in his hand. The excitement on his face made everyone around him extremely jealous.
But they soon lost their jealousy, because as soon as the old man finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and then he fell to the ground.
Others, including Lao Xie who had been waiting for the news, hurried over to take a look and found that his man had run out of energy, but when he died, his eyes were wide open and his expression was extremely serious, as if he had died very uncomfortably. Be willing. Obviously, he died from overwork and sudden excitement, which caused his heart to be overwhelmed.
Seeing this scene, everyone was speechless for a while. Then, Karachi and others looked at Lao Xie, wanting to see how he handled the matter.
Obviously Lao Xie knew what they were thinking. He frowned slightly, then directly picked up the blood-stained ancient book in the old man's hand and looked at it carefully. After just two glances, Lao Xie's eyes lit up. It turns out that the book in his hand is actually a personal diary, the diary of a legendary magician long, long ago.
It is difficult to find the age and life story of this magician, but one thing related to him is reflected in this diary, that is, he admired Tustaman extremely, and also wanted to win and As powerful as Tustaman, he studied Tustaman for a long time.
The age when this mage lived was not far away from Tustaman, only one or two thousand years apart. At that time, many stories about Tustaman's life could still be found. And he recorded all these studies in his diary. After so many years, the records in this diary have become a precious and important reference.
Lao Xie glanced briefly and saw some records about Tustaman's youth, which was exactly what he was looking for.
"Ha, that's it!" Lao Xie closed the book excitedly, and then said directly to the old man's body on the ground: "Although you are no longer here, I still want to thank you for helping me find this book! Don’t worry, I will send the reward to your family. I have never been in the habit of defaulting on my debts!”
Oddly enough, as soon as Lao Xie finished speaking, the old man's wide eyes suddenly closed. Everyone around him was shocked when he saw it.
Lao Xie had no reaction. He just turned his face and said to Karachi: "Give these gold coins to his family one by one. If I knew that there was a missing copper plate, I would also give all the gold coins to everyone who dared to reach out. Destroy, do you understand? ”
"Understood!" Of course Karachi knew how powerful Lao Xie was, so he quickly agreed. Then he specially found two confidants to handle the matter, and at the same time, he warned them not to take any advantage.
Seeing how Lao Xie dealt with it, other people were envious and admired him. I envy the old man's good luck and admire Lao Xie for keeping his word.
In fact, Lao Xie did this deliberately to show them. Money is nothing to him. As long as he can get this thing done, it doesn't matter if he spends millions, let alone a mere 10,000 gold coins. .
After they carried away the several large boxes of gold coins that Lao Xie had thrown down earlier, Lao Xie threw out several large boxes from the space ring, then waved the book in his hand and said: "I want more books like this, It’s still a reward of 10,000 gold coins!”
"Ah~" This time, those people were extremely happy. Without saying anything, they started rummaging through the pile of ancient books again.
Lao Xie nodded with satisfaction, then ignored them and turned to study the ancient book he had just obtained.
A few days later, Lao Xie left the Holy See with a satisfied look. During these days, he spent a total of 40,000 gold coins to find four ancient books that recorded the first half of Tustaman's life.
Through some comparisons and connections, Lao Xie finally figured out Tustaman's course of action in the first half of his life.
It is recorded in ancient books that Tustaman worked as a slave under a certain elf noble until he was 16 years old. It's just that the person he served was the young son of the nobleman, so he didn't suffer much, and he even took the opportunity to learn a lot of relevant knowledge.
After Tustaman turned 16, he encountered a civil war among the elves. His master was killed, and he began to wander. But he disappeared soon after, and it was more than ten years before he appeared again. At that time, Tustaman had already entered the Holy Realm and became a powerful light caster. And officially began the legend of his life.
So, Lao Xie has reason to believe that Tustaman spent the more than ten years of his disappearance in the ruins. Only that kind of place can allow a guy with low strength and low talent to enter the holy realm in just a dozen years.
So, the question now is, where are the ruins? Lao Xie saw such a conjecture from the legendary magician's diary. He recorded that the time from Tustaman's wandering to his disappearance or entry into the ruins was actually not long, only a few months.
When Tustaman was 16 years old, his own strength was very low, and there were wars everywhere, so it was definitely impossible for him to go too far in just a few months. Therefore, the ruins that made Tustaman prosperous must not be far from the place where he grew up.
Undoubtedly, this is an extremely logical speculation, and even Lao Xie feels the same way. And finally decided to treat it as fact.
With such information about the location of the ruins, the only difficulty is to determine where Tustaman lived before he was 16 years old.
There is no relevant record in the legendary magician's diary. Obviously, he probably could not solve this problem during his lifetime. But Lao Xie saw clues to this matter from another ancient book. That ancient book speculated that the elven nobles Tustaman served when he was a child were probably from the star elves. Because among the elves, they are the only ones willing to let human slaves accompany their children to study, and the other two elves think it is a shameful thing.
The nobles of the Star Elf clan all live in several huge cities, and only a few nobles do management work in other places. In other words, Tustaman most likely lived in these big cities. In this way, Lao Xie's search scope was greatly reduced. After all, there are actually not many super cities of the elves, only a dozen in total.
At this time, Lao Xie can actually start searching directly. After all, he still has many people under his command, who can completely search the ruins of more than a dozen big cities at the same time.
But Lao Xie obviously didn't want to go to that trouble. After some research, he narrowed down the scope again. Because he found that among the four records, there was a very obvious detailed description of Tustaman, that is, he did not like to eat fish, not at all.
This news was proved to be true by four books at the same time. From this, Lao Xie thought of one thing. Only inland people might hate fish food so much that they would not even want to eat it. The staple food of people along the coast is fish. As a servant, it is almost impossible for Tustaman not to eat fish. Therefore, Lao Xie concluded from this that Tustaman lived inland, far from the ocean.
After reaching this conclusion, the goal is very clear. Because the Star Elves, later known as the Sirens, actually like water very much. Almost all of their large cities are in coastal areas, with the only exception being a large city deep inland.
The reason why that city is occupied by star elves who don’t like the inland is because it produces a lot of precious magic materials that are not found in the ocean. In order to better compete for these resources, the Star Elf clan simply built a large city in that area and stationed many experts and nobles to guard it.
And this former great city of the Star Elf clan is today Lao Xie’s newly built Fearless Fort!
Of course, it is somewhat hasty to draw this conclusion just because Tustaman does not eat fish, but Lao Xie has another example. That is, after Tustaman took control of the entire continent, he repaired all the major cities of the Star Elves and made them his own cities, entrusting them to his subordinates.
But only the city where the star elves stayed in the interior of the continent, Tustaman not only refused to let anyone repair it, but also kicked out all the surviving people inside, and then completely sealed it, not allowing anyone to near. The person responsible for this work is Tustaman's most trusted personal guard. This shows that he attaches great importance to this place.
This incident is weird inside and out. Many people don’t understand why Tustaman did this. If there is treasure inside, then you should dig it out after you send out the troops. How can there be no reason to ignore it? And if there is no treasure inside, why should everyone inside be driven away and sealed alone?
This huge question mark has been surrounding Tustaman's subordinates, but unfortunately it has never been answered. Only after Lao Xie related the events before and after did he come to an understanding, he guessed that this was a rule specially set up by Tustaman to protect the ruins! This further proves that the ruins are around Fort Fearless.
After figuring out this matter, Lao Xie suddenly felt dumbfounded. He never thought that what he was looking for with all his efforts was actually in his lair.
Although there is no strong evidence for this speculation, it is just Lao Xie's own reasoning, but Lao Xie always has a hunch that the ruins that made Tustaman soar into the sky are definitely in this place!
