Dragon Tribulation of All Realms

Chapter 103: Holy Kingdom Secret Treasure

“It’s this?”

The attempt was successful.

Wu Chen didn't expect to succeed the first time.

Because this is the simplest and most basic method of verification - as long as the person wearing the crown, or the person he trusts has the ability to fill the entire crown's magic needs by himself, then this method will definitely be used to verify the power within the crown.

Is it difficult to do it alone?
It's difficult. Because it's seventh-tier magic. And because the humans in this world are too weak. In other words, even a magic caster without the strength to surpass that of an abnormal being would simply not be able to do it.

Wu Chen did it.

Because he is strong enough.

And when the magic power completely filled the crown and Calca wore it, she and he who embraced her both sensed a strange phenomenon.

There's something nearby.

That thing is in the library.

Finding the feeling, he approached that place. The layout of the furnishings before him became increasingly familiar. And finally, he was back at the place where they had first met.

Where the magic books are kept.

The place where precious and rare magic books that need to be strictly protected and are basically impossible to lose before the fall of Kalinxia are placed.

And the magic book with the greatest value in the entire library appeared in the center of their perception at the same time.

Fifth-tier magic: Teleportation.

It fell into Wu Chen's hands.

"Calca, haven't you ever thought about filling your crown with magic power? Or at least let Quillat try it?" With continuous recharging, accounting for loss, perhaps a month could be done.

“I… I’ve never thought of that.” Calca raised her hand, wanting to touch the book, but then withdrew her fingers. “Because the Holy King’s Golden Crown is a very precious ritual artifact…”

Wu Chen placed the book in her hand—her fingers trembled when they touched the pages.

"Discovering it is incredibly easy. All one needs is sufficient strength and the determination to reach this frontier fortress. This shows that the person who designed this puzzle hoped someone would discover it. And the person who discovers it is either a descendant of the Holy King, or closely related to this descendant, and one and the same."

He looked at Calca, who had realized something.

"This is the secret key left by your ancestor, perhaps the legendary first Holy King. He hoped someone could fill this crown with magic—" He glanced at the spellbook again. "Or perhaps someone who can master teleportation can perceive this message. In that case, I suspect this could be a treasure."

"The treasure of our ancestors..." she murmured.

The first Holy King, Rolandil. When the Thirteen Heroes ended the Demon Rebellion two hundred years ago and finally disbanded, with the exception of their leader, Riku, confirmed dead in battle, the remaining heroes in the human camp largely returned home. Many of them were members of the Theocracy and therefore returned to it, but a few still went on to found new kingdoms.

Take, for example, the Kingdom of Re-Estize and the Baharus Empire. These two nations were originally part of a single nation, forged by a powerful hero. As the hero aged, the vast nation was split in two. And naturally, the Holy Kingdom, founded over a hundred years ago, was also founded by a powerful ancient hero.

Rolandil is such a hero.

His deeds were obscure, and he had little interaction with the others in the Thirteen Heroes. No one knew where he came from or when he truly died. All people knew was that he disliked the Theocracy and the other members of his group. Therefore, he chose to establish the Holy Kingdom in this remote region, distanced from all other human nations. And for a ridiculous reason, the Holy Kingdom and the Theocracy had had little interaction for hundreds of years.

The Silian Theocracy worships the six gods, incarnated by six former Advent players. They correspond to earth, water, fire, wind, light, and darkness, respectively.

The Holy Kingdom of Lobel, however, only worshipped the Four Gods of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind, disdaining the Gods of Light and Darkness. This was despite the Holy Kingdom boasting the most organized Paladin Order outside of the Theocracy, and the vast majority of its spells and combat techniques being categorized as light and divine.

Disliking the Dark God made sense, but rejecting the Light God was completely unreasonable. However, since this was the rule established by the First Saint King, it would be difficult for future generations to change it at will.

Now, Wu Chen felt that the reason for doing so was perhaps that the First Saint King did not want any overly powerful professionals of foreign faiths to come to this library or have long-term contact with the holder of the Saint King's Crown.

Wu Chen's toes touched the ground, and the teleportation mark he had originally placed there was immediately eliminated. Normally, when teleporting without a mark, the final landing point would likely only be within the caster's field of vision.

Like honey, it spreads like honey. That's probably the principle.

but……

"This book, this crown, and your bloodline—I suspect they are all tokens of our loyalty. I suspect that if we use undirected teleportation while carrying them, we will be transported to the treasure's location. Of course, this is just a guess. It requires a certain degree of verification before we can attempt to act."

There was a hint of urgency in his tone, but in reality, he was already getting impatient. He had no reason to sit in the city of Kalinxia for half a month waiting for the tournament to begin.

Even during this half month, there are many interesting things to do.

"Dust..." Calca hesitated, her words of dissuasion hidden in her heart. "How do you plan to verify this?"

"It's very simple." Wu Chen nodded. "I remember that Kuirat knows fifth-level magic?"

"Then she should also know how to use teleportation?"

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, Daxter. I haven't learned teleportation yet." Kuirat brought some news, which was neither good nor bad. "But I do have some research in this area. And according to the magical knowledge I have learned..."

Wu Chen was too lazy to think about why it took the locals months or even years to learn these spells that he thought could be mastered with just hands.

Maybe I am really a genius in the field of magic?

Or is it a kind of confusion of cause and effect? ​​Since I am destined to become a member of the Dragon Priest, I naturally have a smooth road before becoming a Dragon Priest?
——[Already met the requirements, are you employed as a Genius Level 1?]

grass?
——[Higher class Young God Lv1 detected, is it still Genius Lv1? 】

Fuck fuck fuck?
Wow, there is such a setting?
The pinnacle of human intelligence is the realm of God... It turns out that there is such a triple jump?

"……His Majesty?"

In a moment of trance, Kuilat had already explained a lot about her professional field. Her advantage over Wu Chen was that she was truly well-versed in various theoretical knowledge. Unlike Wu Chen, who simply copied the structure of the spell and then made self-adjustments based on his intuition to achieve success.

"Let's just say the conclusion."

"Yes." Kuirat nodded gently. "The theory of this teleportation book is indeed correct, but the spell structure and detailed runes used are filled with too much personal style. I can confirm that this is definitely not a pure version of teleportation. And this part... the creator of the spell seems to have adjusted the operation mode for multi-person teleportation, and it seems that skin contact is required for multiple people to teleport."

"I see." Wu Chen nodded. The teleportation mark was recreated. He turned his gaze to Calca, then glanced at Kuirat and Remedios, who had come with her.

“Calca, explain the situation to them. I’ll verify the safety of this spell.”

"...Is it really possible? Your Majesty Dust." There was a hint of disbelief in her voice.

"This is a message left by your ancestors, a treasure left by your ancestors. It is up to you to decide how to deal with it. I will not take it away from you casually."

He nodded, his figure vanishing in a dimensional shift. Kuirat breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Calca, whose face had turned slightly red.

"Did you have a good time last night?"

“S-Stop teasing me…” Calca turned her head away. “Anyway, anyway, I have something to tell you…”

"Needless to say, His Majesty has already said enough." Kuirat waved his hand. "This ancient Holy King's treasure, relying on this teleportation technique, requires physical contact to function. It's a no-brainer: this is the legacy left to our successors and their closest companions. You will embark on this adventure with His Majesty, Daxter."

"This……"

"My sister and I will take care of Kalinxia's affairs, so you can go without worry."

Calca pursed her lips slightly.

"...Come with me."

"That's not like you." Kuirat raised his eyebrows. "You haven't always made up your mind so easily."

"Well, Dust... he taught me a lot. And he allowed me to do this—there must be treasures in the ancestral treasure house that can help you. But these treasures may not be taken away at will. Therefore, I want to share this treasure house with you, with my most trusted friends."

Kuirat sighed silently.

"If you'd been so decisive earlier, then... never mind. We'll stick with you until the end. At least I can help you identify some ancient documents and historical puzzles. I'm also a tough, durable tank. As for the other trivial matters, I've already prepared them before I came here. Disappearing for three or five days will be fine."

"Is there anything I can do for you?" Remedios, her eyes too clear, finally came out of her decorative mode.

"You'll need to step on mines, explore the path, and take a beating. You might die, and you'll most likely be seriously injured. But don't worry, the only fifth-tier magic I fully master is resurrection."

"Oh." Remedios nodded. "Leave it to me."

"Everyone..." Calca clenched her fingers slightly, then suddenly thought of something. "But this teleportation spell..."

"You don't think my sister and I can still get married, do you, Calca?" But Quillat just rolled her eyes. "We're too deeply entangled, too deeply entangled with every aspect of this country. No matter who you marry, my sister and I can't escape. Even if you're confident, Your Majesty, I'm not. But becoming a concubine to a king of deviants wouldn't be a disgrace to the Custodio family name."

“Is there anything else I can do?” Remedios raised her head again.

"Sister, just shut up and do as I say."

"Oh..." Then she lowered her head again.

After a short while, inside the library, where Wu Chen had left his mark, a faint glow began to flicker.

Wu Chen's figure stepped out from the light.

"Is this discussion over?" He glanced at the three of them and nodded. "This spell is relatively safe. I don't think there's any need to worry about teleportation accidents."

"Then let's get ready to go."
