Chapter 99: The "Despicable" Aragorn (Part 1)

  Chapter 99: The "Despicable" Aragorn (Part 1)

  Finally, they bypassed that terrible abyss and came to a cave entrance.

  This entrance is slightly different from others, first of all, this entrance is sealed with rocks. At the same time, a human emblem is faintly engraved on the rock, Du Wei only took a glance and recognized that it was the emblem of the Thorn Flower family, specifically the Thorn Flower family of Aragon.

  This crest of thistle I have only seen in some documents, because in the current Roland Empire, although the imperial flag is also a thistle flower, it has undergone great changes compared to this iron gate emblem. Due to the replacement of the imperial royal family, the royal crest has changed from the original pure Aragon thistle flower family to the Aragon brothers' family, and then to the current Augustinian lineage, undergoing several changes and modifications. The original thistle flower family crest had already added many later imperial clan marks.

  With Du Wei's extensive knowledge, he immediately recognized that the iron gate was adorned with the earliest and most authentic thistle emblem of the Roland Empire from the Aragon era.

  The old magician opened the long box given by the dragon tribe leader and took out the "key" to open this secret room.

  To everyone's surprise, this so-called "key" turned out to be a broken corner!

  As soon as he thought of the broken horn on top of the Dragon Clan's leader, Du Wei immediately understood what was going on.

  "Don't look at me like that, I didn't expect the key to be something like this either." The old magician rubbed his nose with one hand and held the so-called key in the other, opening his mouth: "No wonder... no wonder..."

  Two hundred years ago, the old magician had come here to find Aragon's legacy, but at that time he hadn't found the prophecy yet. The dragon clan leader who guarded this place naturally wouldn't let him enter the secret room and didn't hand over the key either. As a result, the two of them fought each other, and the old magician was defeated, leaving reluctantly.

  "There are two conditions for the Dragon Clan's patriarch to hand over the key. One is that contract with the Dragon Clan, which I already had when I came last time. Unfortunately, I don't meet the second condition because I'm not the person mentioned in the prophecy of Aragon." The old magician smiled and handed the half dragon horn to Du Wei: "Take it, this secret room can only be entered by you, we can't."

  Du Wei held the broken horn and walked to the entrance of the cave under the encouragement of the old magician's eyes.

  The thistle emblem on the rock in front of him was as big as a washbasin, and Du Wei held half of the broken horn, fumbled for a while, but didn't know how to use this "key".

  If it's a key, shouldn't there be at least one keyhole?

  Du Wei couldn't help but complain.

  But where is the keyhole on this rock?

  "How does it work?" Du Wei asked, turning his head back.

  The old magician spread out his hands and replied very briefly: "I don't know."

  I don't know?

  Du Wei rolled his eyes.

  "Yes, I don't know." The old magician's words made Du Wei very angry: "You are the person in the prophecy. Only you can open this door. As destined by the prophecy, you must be able to open it. As for how to open it, I believe there will always be a way."

  What kind of answer is this?

  Du Wei suppressed his anger and carefully felt around the rock with his hand. The rock that blocked the cave was irregular, bumpy and uneven, and the only flat piece was the thorny flower emblem, which had been flattened by a sword.

  Wait... Du Wei stroked the thorny flower emblem, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a small protruding rock in the center of the emblem. He lightly pressed it, and found that the protruding block immediately sank in, revealing... two small holes!

  Two?

  Du Wei was stunned for a moment, but in his hand there was only one "key".

  Moreover, after measuring the thickness of this dragon horn in his hand, it seemed that it couldn't be inserted either, the size didn't match.

  But Du Wei was not a person who stuck to fixed thinking, he thought for a moment and vaguely felt that the position and distance of the two small holes on this badge were like a pair of human eyes... Then, under the strange gaze of several people behind him, Du Wei leaned over and stuck his own eyes close to the two small holes on the badge... And then, a miracle happened.

  Two small holes on the badge suddenly shot out two strong beams of light, which directly pierced into Du Wei's eyes! According to reason, such intense light entering the eyes would normally cause temporary blindness!

  But Du Wei seemed to have no feeling at all, he only felt that his eyes had received a strong light, the light was strong, but it didn't seem to stimulate any pain in his eyes, on the contrary, it felt very gentle and comfortable. Then very quickly, it was as if something ignited a certain power within Du Wei's body, Du Wei felt that his gaze could penetrate directly into the inside of the rock through these two small holes!

  Then, through two small holes, Du Wei seemed to see something... Just in this instant, Du Wei seemed to feel that his eyes saw... an illusion?

  It must be an illusion... Before my eyes, one by one, the silhouettes of women I've seen and known flash by... Cute little Gumball Mikan, violent ice beauty Joana, red-robed, long-haired and barefoot Saymel, my first honored knightess Longlegs Lolita Yorin... One by one, all these beauties flash before my eyes... Why are they all women?

  Just as Du Wei was feeling strange, a faint voice seemed to pierce into his heart: Ah, the Enchanting Eyes... So it was Chris who gave you this thing.

  Before Du Wei could even react, he suddenly felt his body lighten... At this moment, the several people standing behind Du Wei all widened their eyes (of course, Medusa was an exception). Du Wei's body seemed to be like a lump of melting snow, and just "melted" into the rock, quickly disappearing from view!

  Du Wei felt himself in a sea of darkness, yes, complete darkness, without any glimmer of light.

  But what was strange was that Du Wei felt he could clearly see everything around him!

  This feeling is so strange, as if he had become a born night vision eye! Du Wei didn't know how this situation came about, but he was certain that it was mostly related to the strong light that shot into his eyes just now.

  This was a very short and narrow passage, behind which was a large rock - but how did he get through this rock himself? Du Wei himself was also somewhat bewildered.

  Ahead, it was as if there was a strange fog that obscured everything, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

  Continue?

  Du Wei's instincts told him that the fog seemed to carry a strong sense of danger, it was an instinctual warning. Du Wei thought for a moment, then gently removed his hat and threw it into the fog... Whoosh!

  A faint but clear voice, just as Du Wei's eyelids fell, the hat that was thrown over had just touched the range of the fog, suddenly appeared countless shining blades in the air, and instantly cut the poor hat into countless fine fragments!

  Awesome! It's like a blender!

  Du Wei took a deep breath of cool air.

  What should I do? Should I keep going forward?

  Du Wei didn't want himself to be cut into pieces by this fog either!

  At this moment, the voice in his heart sounded again:

  Do you have the key? Key?

  Du Wei couldn't help but look around, but there was nothing, only the dark mountain wall. He took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Who? Who's talking to me?"

  "Do you have a key?" Du Wei looked vigilantly at the misty veil: "A key? I do!"

  After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and swung the half dragon horn.

  Then there was no sound anymore. Du Wei waited for a while and didn't wait for any answer, nor did that strange voice come again.

  Key?

  Key... Du Wei muttered to himself, looking at the half dragon horn in his hand. He gritted his teeth and cautiously took a few steps forward... When the toe of one foot touched the edge of the fog, Du Wei immediately felt a surge of powerful energy emanating from within! Suddenly, with a "whoosh" sound, the tip of his boot was severed! Fortunately, the boot was large, and although the toe was gone, five bare toes were exposed. Du Wei quickly withdrew his foot and cursed loudly: "What kind of ghost thing is this! I have the key! But what's the point of having this key!"

  This curse made Du Wei regret it!

  It was as if he had triggered some kind of reaction in the fog, and the originally stagnant mist suddenly began to spread and diffuse towards Du Wei!

  Du Wei let out a terrified cry and hastily retreated backwards, but how much distance could this narrow passageway have? Soon he backed up against the rocky wall behind him and couldn't retreat another step!

  What the... Is this Aragorn's legacy or some kind of death trap!

  As that misty fog was about to engulf him, Du Wei let out a long sigh, steeled himself, and closed his eyes... Whatever Heaven ordains!

  It wasn't until much later that Du Wei opened his eyes to find himself still intact, the mist having enveloped him instead of tearing him apart. In his hand, however, the broken dragon horn was emitting a soft glow, which surrounded Du Wei and repelled the encroaching mist.

  With the light of this glow, illuminating the path forward in the fog, Du Wei let out a sigh of relief, glanced at the dragon horn in his hand which was like a torch, calmed himself down and continued to walk further inside...
