It was a three-dimensional photo of several Brittans gathered around a small high-top table. An open box on the table revealed a small half of a black sphere.

Iss narrowed his eyes - this was obviously the black ball that Dinard mentioned.

"This was probably secretly photographed at the back of the auction. The person who bought it was a member of the royal family of the Britan Empire at the time." Vassar said, "Because it was too far away, the covered part

There are too many, and we tried various methods, but there are only two source symbols that can be clearly identified."

The two golden runes were projected.

He didn't ask Yis to interpret it, but he didn't speak again.

Yis glanced at him and didn't bother to waste time. Even if the other person's "help" obviously had his own purpose, but it really helped him, he wouldn't mind returning the favor.

He pointed at the first rune.

"'Time'," he said.

"...Does it mean 'time'?" Suni Supu couldn't help but interject.

"Not necessarily." Iss replied, "It may refer to time, or it may refer to 'at that time' or a certain moment now, or a quantifier after a certain exact time. And this one..."

He pointed to the second rune.

"It is a function word with no actual meaning, usually used to connect two nouns."

Sunisup nodded, but could not hide her disappointment.

These two runes were not originally connected together, and their meanings were so...complex. Even if they knew it, it seemed to have no meaning.

But Vassar didn't care about this. What he cared about was the reaction of this mysterious young man, and the other party's frankness was enough to make him trust him more.

"The Origin Symbol," he said, "in fact, from the moment it was discovered, it has been followed by many people...for different reasons. Some people just want to solve the ancient mystery, and some people

Coveting the mysterious power in the legend. However, when our ancestors left the Source Star, too many things were lost and abandoned, so that it was almost completely forgotten for a long time... until it was found again.

"

However, after thousands of years, the Brittans have become extremely powerful and full of confidence. They no longer need to look for confidence from ancient civilizations or the gifts of gods, nor do they have any regard for these strange symbols and the power they represent.

If you continue to pay attention as before, otherwise, even if the village is hidden in the mountains and protected by a chaotic magnetic field, with the strength of the Brittan people at that time, they may not be able to find it.

They just... didn't take it to heart. Until they saw the greater good, until they had greater ambitions.

"This black stone ball," Vassar said, "some people call it the source stone. And there is a saying that few people know is that Fenglin City exploded... It was precisely because people from the New Energy Research Institute were there at that time

Something went wrong while studying it."

And they didn't expect that that stone would contain such powerful power.

"So," Yis said, "it might still be in Fenglin City?"

Sunisup's eyes widened in disbelief: "You still want to go to Fenglin City? That thing might have been blown to pieces long ago, okay!"

Vassar asked more calmly: "Do you think it's still there?"

"I don't know." Iss said honestly, "but there will always be something left there."

"...It seems that it is really important to you." Vassar said, "Can I ask why?"

His tone was still gentle, but became a little aggressive.

"I've already said it." Yis replied, "Find someone."

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he simply said: "You don't have to worry that I am trying to master some powerful power. I am already strong enough... I have no interest in controlling or destroying anything, unless someone wants to

Control or destroy me. I am looking for it because it may be left by someone I know. That guy may be my enemy or my friend. If it is the latter, you can rest assured that

The guy doesn't want what he left behind to lead to some terrible disaster... No matter what goes wrong, I'll clean it up for him. And if it's the former, it's even easier - I'll catch it and make it happen

Totally dead."

As he got more and more information, he realized more and more clearly that it was not necessarily Ed who left those dragon languages, but it was probably another guy who could use dragon languages ​​more skillfully...

Seth.

It has been floating in the sea of ​​nothingness for tens of thousands of years. It is impossible that it has been guarding the Star Realm like a dog in love with its nest and has not gone anywhere.

It has probably been to farther places, to other planets, and tried every means to make itself stronger... but it seems to have failed. And the things it left behind may allow it to survive... like

It's the same as the "escape paths" that Leos left for himself.

Even, it might be Leos - he can also use dragon language.

As for Blazing Wings...that guy probably doesn't have the patience.

Vassar was silent for a long time. What this young man said was really unbelievable...but he felt that he was not lying.

His natural look made people think that there was no need for him to lie.

"Of course," Iss looked directly at His Majesty the Emperor, "If you want to get something from it... I advise you to give up as soon as possible."

This sentence was really rude, but Vassar couldn't help but laugh.

"I really didn't want to get anything from it." He said, "I am indeed very interested in Britan's ancient civilization, but not to find some mysterious and powerful power, just to get some insights and lessons from it... After all

, everything we create now comes from our own wisdom and strength, rather than relying on any gods or unknown magic - we don't need those. But... I'm afraid some people don't think so.

, and they have already smelled the smell that excites them. When you spread the news about Xinga Mountain, when you let too many people know that you can decipher the source symbols and even master the power within them, you open a door for yourself.

A very dangerous door... Maybe you don't feel much about it now. That's because those people are still judging your strength and trying to use you to find more things. When you get close to the goal, it may be the most dangerous door.

When you are in danger...you may be really powerful, but you can't even imagine the madness of some people."

"So you think," Iss frowned, "I should have killed the entire village to hide this secret?"

He asked so seriously that it didn't sound like sarcasm, leaving Vassal speechless and unable to laugh or cry.

"...Why are you so annoying!"

Perhaps because her father was by her side, Sunisup finally spoke her heart frankly and loudly: "My father just asked you to be careful! Is it so difficult to express gratitude?!"

Iss was also speechless. It wasn't that he couldn't understand the good and bad, but "You'd better be careful" was a very simple sentence. Why did he say it in such a complicated way, making it seem like he had brought it on himself?

trouble?

The secrets of Mount Xinga cannot be hidden at all. And he, such a striking dragon, if he wants to find something, even if he conceals it carefully, he can't hide it for long, right?

So...why bother?

"I know." He said, "Thank you."

He really thanked him, but Sunisup blushed inexplicably.

"...If you need it, I'm still willing to provide you with all kinds of information." Vassar said with a smile, "Just think of it as...thank you for helping my daughter clear her name. And, I think you have to deal with it.

...should also become our enemy."

Iss glanced at him unexpectedly. He thought Tess's plan was quite perfect, but was it still seen through?

As if she understood his doubts, Sunisup blushed and snorted: "The appearance of that stone lizard was too coincidental, like an actor pinching the right time to appear. And I told Tess that we

Some research results on animals...do you really think I’m that stupid!”

Yisi remained silent.

No, he doesn't think girls are stupid, he just thinks girls' thoughts are too unpredictable - so are you happy or unhappy right now?

In order to avoid being called "annoying" again...he should say less.

.

Sunisup dutifully continued to accompany Is in the library for five days. Then, with several very satisfactory cooperation agreements, the Unicorn left Huawan City.

The girl looked up and looked at the three-masted ship disappearing into the blue sky, feeling lost.

"Do you need me to give you a ride?" Morana asked her.

The girl shook her head.

Morana stopped being polite. But when she left, seeing the girl's listless look, she couldn't help but say one more thing.

"Some things can't be grasped, girl," she said. "It's best to forget them as soon as possible."

Sunisup curled her lips - what did this person say! She didn't want to catch anything!

She asked her father for a chance and came here willfully, just because the image she saw accidentally, the silver-white beast flying in the boundless sea of ​​​​stars, was so amazing... But the dragon itself, and

In fact, it was not at all as mysterious, elegant, majestic, and unfathomable as she imagined.

He has no patience, can't speak, doesn't listen to others, is stubborn, arrogant...it's simply annoying and indescribable.

In the end, she never found the opportunity to make the extremely rude request "Let me see if you can turn into a dragon."

After all, although she helped him a lot, he also helped her a lot.

She has no shame in asking for more.

So, looking back now, the deeper impression in her mind actually turned into the image of that guy sitting under the window sill of the library, flipping through books quickly... and the seriousness when he asked her "How can I help you?"

To... there is a little bit of a cute expression.

Although, her cuteness is not even one-tenth of Nana's.

She lowered her eyes and smiled to herself.

The flower in her heart bloomed in an instant and withered in the blink of an eye, so fast that she had no time to distinguish its appearance, leaving only a faint fragrance.
