The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 159: Rongjin Family
In the wooden house, the king and the three wizard apprentices had not yet gone to bed and were still gathered in the living room.

Lynn hid in the dark and did not show up.

This matter concerned his own secrets, and he did not want to leave too many traces, just as he did not ask Grace to stay in Ryan for a few days.

He only has one night.

Mental power surged slowly like the tide, and in the blink of an eye, Lin En entered a deep black moon sensing state.

The Black Moon relics on his body emerged in his mind one by one, and then even the Purple Moon Pendant from the Orca ship became clearly visible.

However, Lin En did not find anything unusual about King Hal in front of him.

The night was quiet. No one in the living room spoke, and Lin En also fell silent.

Apart from the Black Moon Sensing State, he found that he really had no other means to explore things related to the Black Moon Academy.

But returning empty-handed obviously did not satisfy Lynn.

After pondering for a long time, Lynn quietly headed towards the Ryan Palace.

The Kingdom of Ryan was considered a first-tier power among the nearby mortal kingdoms, and the royal palace was therefore built to be large and luxurious.

The style of the palace is similar to the Palace of Versailles in France in the previous life, but it is larger in scale and its layout is closer to a circle.

Lin En slowed down his flying speed above the main gate of the palace and activated the deep black moon sensing state.

In the next half hour, he checked the entire Ryan Palace like a sweeping robot, including all the royal members living there.

The result... was still nothing.

Suspended in mid-air, Lynn considered whether to go to the Orca ship to get the Purple Moon Pendant and then explore again.

'But there is a high probability that there will be no gain.'

After getting the Purple Moon Pendant, Lin En studied it carefully for a long time, but the magic tool had been damaged over a long period of time. No matter how he tried, he only got two pieces of information. One was the prompt when it was turned on - "Insufficient harmonizing particles, need to be replenished." The second was a warning when trying to use it.

The warning when trying to use it on someone other than the Lion's royal family is exactly the same as when it was turned on - "Insufficient harmonic particles."

When trying to use it on a member of the Lion's royal family, it will become "Suspected Purple Moon Magic Resistance."

Therefore, it is obviously not a rational decision to use a damaged magic tool that is only used to inject Purple Moon Magic Resistance to explore more about the relationship between the Ryan royal family and the Black Moon Academy.

But Lynn still didn't want to leave.

"Black Moon Factory No. 1679..."

He has already encountered two Black Moon relics related to the Black Moon ruins.

Add to that the blood-red world he had seen in the Green Shadow Forest and the Holy Mi Ring World he had seen in the Silver Ring Academy... Lin En had a hunch -

Perhaps, the distance to Black Moon Factory No. 1679 was not as far away as he imagined.

Perhaps, it is not far away, quietly waiting for the world to discover it.

Of course, it is possible that someone has already gotten there first, or it may have been completely destroyed by enemies or time.

But just like someone who gets a treasure map will embark on the journey no matter what, Lin En will not give up - until he actually arrives at Black Moon Factory No. 1679.

After thinking for a while, Lin En suddenly thought of the prison where King Ryan had taken them.

The prison is located underground in the palace and is much older than the palace on the surface... If I remember correctly, Hal once said that it has always been a secret place of the Ryan family.

……

Secret prison.

The heavy door, hidden as rock, has been firmly shut.

In a dark corner, five royal guards were on duty.

No one noticed that a faint golden mist quietly slipped in through an inconspicuous gap in the door.

The bloody traces in the cell have now been cleaned up. Perhaps because there are no prisoners, there are no guards inside the cell. However, Lin En still did not show up, and continued to move forward in the golden mist state.

The pale stone walls and dark fences did not bring any surprises to Lin En in the first half of the journey, until he completely passed through the prison and walked along the corridor behind the secret door to a new, deeper space.

This is a natural cave with an open space. The walls of the cave have been artificially repaired to be smooth and flat, and the ground is paved with neat gray-white stone bricks.

There are a lot of brilliant treasures piled up in the cave, but the most eye-catching one is the throne made entirely of gold in the center.

'It seems that this should be the secret place passed down from generation to generation by the Ryan family.'

Ignoring the gold and jewels on the ground, Lynn floated towards the throne, and after careful inspection, he gently turned a huge ruby ​​in the center of the chair back.

With a click, a secret compartment appeared behind the throne.

Mist-like dust diffused out, and it was very clear under the illumination of the glowing crystal on the top. It seemed that no one had opened this secret compartment for a long time.

'Perhaps over the long years, the Ryan family has forgotten that there is a secret compartment behind the throne.'

Pulling open the secret compartment, an ancient scroll was revealed inside, with Ryan and a lion head emblem engraved on both ends of the wooden scroll.

Unfolding the scroll with great interest, what caught Lynn's eyes were densely packed names of people with their relationships marked on them.

"It turns out to be a family tree."

The latest person in the scroll is Gwen Ryan. According to the above records, he was born about 120 years ago and is a male.

'I don't know if the current King Hal remembers this ancestor.'

120 years is not a long time for a wizard, but it is equivalent to two lifetimes for an ordinary mortal.

Lynn didn't stay too long at the end of the scroll, as all the people here are recent.

He flipped forward quickly and came to the beginning of the scroll.

What is recorded here is not a person's name, but a history of the Ryan family.

A history recorded in the second person's name in the Lane family tree:
"In July of the year 1236 of Gunn, the Hearst School was destroyed in the war, and the first-class wizard apprentice Glen Raven, who was also my father, was forced to go to the land without magic.

"In October of the following year, my mother Edwina gave birth to me.

"In this small country called Yost, I spent the most comfortable eight years of my life. Until that summer night, a wild wizard attacked my father for inheritance.

"Although my father defeated him, he himself passed away due to the recurrence of his old injuries.

"In his final moments, my father told my mother and me a secret that he had kept hidden for a long time.

"I just realized that Raven is not our real surname. Our real surname is so noble that it cannot even be written in the wizarding common language.

“It comes from an extremely ancient and mysterious house, of which our ancestors were once powerful members.

"Until today, the blood of our ancestors is still influencing us, their descendants. Although it is already extremely thin, the mental resistance of every person who can become a wizard apprentice is much higher than that of an ordinary wizard apprentice.

“My future descendants, I don’t expect you to go very far.

“I just hope you don’t forget where you came from.

"Don't forget your real last name—"

At the end of the text there are a few patterns that were painstakingly traced.

If it were someone else, they would probably think that this was just random graffiti, the imagination of that wizard Gran.

But Lynn understood that this was not a fantasy, nor was it graffiti.

This is clearly some distorted and deformed Black Moon text!

"The molten, flowing, dazzling gold..."

Stroking the writing, Lin En silently recited its meaning in his mind.
