Me and my fantasy world

Chapter 132 Heading to the Capital

"I admire your outstanding abilities, tenacious mind and firm beliefs, but in this world, especially in the capital of Andressa where people's hearts are unpredictable, your blood may very likely become a blade against your neck, and you don't know when it will be unsheathed." The second prince looked at Lingyi earnestly.

Lingyi's eyes softened a lot when he looked at the Second Prince. Thinking back to his attitude towards the dean and the Second Prince, he was indeed too tough: "Okay, I got it." Lingyi thanked sincerely.

"You three should get ready. We will leave tomorrow." The second prince said with a smile.

"Tomorrow?" Zero One and the other two, along with the dean, exclaimed in surprise.

"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious?" the dean asked puzzledly.

"There is no time. Father's health is getting worse day by day." The second prince said worriedly, "Last night, the urgent news was that His Majesty had fainted and fainted once. Although his health has improved a lot now, he is unable to walk. During this period, my brother has been the regent. The imperial doctors have taken turns to check on him, but they are powerless."

"Is it so serious?" The dean exclaimed after hearing the situation.

"How long does it take to get to the capital from here?" Lingyi asked puzzledly.

"It will take three days at full speed, but we are a large army, so it will take at least half a month." The second prince covered his head helplessly and confided helplessly, "Fortunately, the holy land is now open for unknown reasons. The capital is wrapped in the powerful magic of the holy land, and it is also slowly supporting my father's body. However, the holy land will only be open for a month. After a month, maybe..."

"What about Pegasus' teleportation ability? Can he teleport directly there?" Lingyi raised his hand. As he asked, the pattern on his arm gradually flashed with green light.

Then Pegasus' voice echoed in Zero One's mind: "No, I can only teleport to places that my master or I have been to. My master has never been to the capital, and I have always lived in the Secret Realm of the Beasts, so I can only teleport to the Secret Realm of the Beasts."

"This..." Lingyi said, looking at the second prince helplessly, his eyes full of reluctance and worry.

"There's no time to wait, Xueyan, you three should go back and prepare first." The dean looked at Lingyi seriously, and Lingyi nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, we've said hello, and it's almost time to go." The second prince said, standing up and stretching, then looked at the dean and said, "Speaking of which, I just saw my uncle coming out. What did you talk about?"

The second prince's words made Lingyi a little confused. The second prince was the child of Emperor Andressa, and the second prince's uncle was equivalent to the emperor's uncle. But from the time the four of them entered the room, only the town master walked out of the room. It couldn't be such a coincidence...

The dean's face instantly showed a trace of impatience, and he waved his hand to urge the second prince to leave: "Nothing, just a perverted old man, I just want to get rid of him quickly."

After hearing this, the second prince scratched his head helplessly: "Um, okay..." The second prince smiled awkwardly and walked towards the gate embarrassedly.

Lingyi had no idea who they were talking about, and couldn't help asking, "Ah? Uncle? Who? Is it the town master?"

"Yes, isn't the town lord a royal relative? He is the brother of the current queen of the Andressa Kingdom." The dean calmly introduced the situation to Lingyi, but Lingyi seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue and stared at the dean in a daze.

"That guy is... the king's uncle?" Lingyi said blankly.

"Have you forgotten what I just told you?" The Second Prince had already come to the door. He opened the door but then stood still, turning half of his face to look at Lingyi, "Don't be so fierce. If you don't change now, it may be difficult to change later."

Lingyi turned around and looked at the Second Prince, saying apologetically, "Okay, I understand."

"We will set off tomorrow morning, don't forget." The second prince said, opened the door and walked out of the principal's office.

The dean looked at the stunned Lingyi and said, "You really need to change your temper, especially in the capital city. Even if you are powerful and confident, you should think twice before doing anything. Go back and rest first, you will set off tomorrow."

"it is good."

……

In front of a square stone tablet, there are many regular script characters densely written on it, and three or two birds are perched on it, grooming their feathers with their sharp beaks.

Several tiny silver-blue streams of light descended from the sky, slowly gathered in front of the stone tablet, and gradually merged into a ball of light.

After a few seconds, the light ball shattered, revealing Zero-One, Leo, Alice and Pegasus standing inside, slowly falling in the air more than half a meter above the ground.

Leo turned around immediately and looked at the devastated ruins, his heart full of confusion: "Is it... here?" Leo asked in disbelief.

Lingyi did not answer in a hurry, but knelt down on his knees in the direction of the stone tablet. The moment Lingyi knelt down, his hair color instantly turned back to its original snow-white color. Two rays of light burst out from his earrings and neck at the same time. Xiaojiu and Xuela appeared beside Lingyi and knelt in front of the stone tablet with Lingyi.

Pegasus stood behind Zero One, and when he saw Zero One kneeling down, he immediately knelt down as well. The left half of Zero One's body emitted a blue light, and a phantom of a dragon horn gradually appeared on the left side of Zero One's forehead. His deep blue pupils that saw through everything could not see the truth about the countless wronged souls under the stone tablet.

Alice saw that Zero-One remained silent and seemed unable to accept this fact. Although Zero-One had told her everything, when the truth was truly laid before her, the blow was much heavier than if the truth had been told orally.

Fortunately, Alice had Leo supporting her, so she didn't fall down: "Alice?" Leo checked Alice's condition in panic.

"No, I'm fine. I just feel a little dazed all of a sudden." Alice said, her eyes gradually turning red. She looked at the charred land and ruins and choked up as she said, "My hometown, where I have lived for so long, is now..."

"We can't undo what has happened." After what he had experienced during this period of time, Lingyi acted relatively calm, but it was only superficial calmness. Every word he said was full of seriousness. "Before going to the capital, I want to come here and talk to them again."

As Lingyi spoke, he took out a small bottle of gourd from the bracelet on his left hand, opened the mouth of the gourd, and the rich aroma of the wine seemed to make one dizzy just by smelling it a few more times.

"Brother Zhou, I brought some wine. You're down there, so don't drink too much. Uncle Pan also likes to drink the wine I brew. I'm sorry for you guys. I came here without adequate preparation. Next time I come, I will definitely brew a big jar of fine wine so you can drink enough." Lingyi said as he stretched out the gourd in his hand, poured out the wine hidden inside, and sprinkled it on the ground in front of the stone tablet.

"Who did this? The town mayor? The town mayor of Nord Town!" Leo roared at Lingyi.

Lingyi was not in a hurry, just focused on pouring wine: "It's not clear yet, but it's probably close. There is not enough evidence now, but at least, according to Aya and the Plum Blossom Man of the Worship Cult, we have figured out a clue."

"What clue? Have you figured it out?" Leo asked anxiously.

Lingyi slowly turned the gourd upside down until the last drop of wine fell, then he gradually plugged the mouth of the gourd and placed it next to the stone tablet, his eyes fixed on the stone tablet, as if he was reporting the progress of his investigation.

"First, the God Worshipping Cult was looking for my mother's whereabouts for something, and my mother was very close to Aunt Xue and Uncle Yan. At the same time, they heard that Aunt Xue and Uncle Yan were living in seclusion in the Nameless Village, so they sent the Plum Blossom Man to look for her."

"The plum blossom man was arrogant and wanted to compete with Uncle Yan by relying on his good luck, but he was defeated by Uncle Yan. Unable to swallow this, the plum blossom man chose to retaliate privately. He used the magic vessel I made as a condition to instigate the town owner to put pressure on Wuming Village in order to retaliate against Uncle Yan."

"From this line of thought, it is true that the mayor must have been the one who wiped out the Nameless Village. However, I did not interact with the mayor much, and I do not have any witnesses or physical evidence. I dare not conclude that it was the mayor who started it."

"But according to Aya, some people from their village were also conscripted by Nord Town on the same day and sent to a village. That's how Aya got her magic vessel. From this point of view, the knights who attacked Nameless Village at that time were probably very small. Most of them were probably like Aya's village, conscripted by Nord Town and surrounded Nameless Village, which eventually led to its demise."

Lingyi took a deep breath and said, "It's hard to see through the town lord, and I don't know how to find clues. Now looking at his calm attitude, it is probably related to King Andressa's critical illness."

"This guy, if it is found out that he is indeed related to me, I will never let him go!" Leo growled angrily, his eyes full of bloodshot, as if he was about to go crazy.

"The problem isn't just with the town lord. There's also the God Worshipping Cult. I have to get to the bottom of this organization, otherwise..." Lingyi said to himself.

"It's a pity that the town chief doesn't go to the capital with us, otherwise I will make him pay." Leo said indignantly, electric currents running through his body, and crackling sounds continued to his ears.

Lingyi was not as angry as Leo, or rather, he was already tired of being angry. His expressionless face was more oppressive than his angry self. "I feel uneasy about the next trip to the capital. The mayor will probably do something weird. You must stay by my side at all times. We may not be the only ones who will resort to such dirty tricks when we enter the holy land."

"Of course, we still have to find hard evidence that he committed a crime, otherwise how can we confront him?"

"Yeah, who says it's not?"

……

In a blink of an eye, night fell.

In the town lord's mansion, Fei Li and the town lord were having dinner at the dining table. The town lord was calm and composed, not at all flustered, while Fei Li seemed absent-minded, and was in a daze from time to time.

"Li'er, what's wrong with you?" The town master put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked.

"Dad, I'm wondering, is it really His Majesty's idea for us to go to the holy land of the capital this time?" Fei Li asked curiously.

"What? You don't believe it?" The town master smiled slightly.

"It's a bit hard to believe. After all... compared to border cities like Nord Town, Andressa is full of talented people. It is said that nearly half of the country's fourth- and fifth-level powerhouses are in the capital, Andressa. In comparison, I'm only a middle-level second-level person. I just completed a transformation, and I feel..." Fili asked doubtfully, but his voice gradually became lighter, as if he had no confidence.

The town master laughed and said, "Li'er, you have to understand that His Majesty is wise and powerful. He has his own considerations for every decision he makes, which is not something we can presume to guess. He may have chosen us because he saw your talent. You should be more confident."

"Really?" Fei Li seemed to be instantly inspired by the town chief's words.

"You still have to practice hard. Now A'da is already at the third level. Although you have succeeded in the first transformation, you still have to keep up with A'da's pace. Do you understand?" The town lord comforted him. Fei Li seemed to be interested immediately. He responded immediately, finished his dinner with gusto, and ran away saying that he was going to practice.

The town master looked at Fei Li's receding figure, his eyes gradually became sharper, he put his hand in front of his lips and cleared his throat: "Ahem."

Boom! With a sound, a man in black appeared beside the town master, kneeled behind him respectfully and said, "Town master, you are looking for me."

"How is the connection going?" asked the town master.

"Everything is ready. The killers in the capital have also been contacted. Xueyan herself has outstanding looks, and we also have a portrait to provide to the other party. There shouldn't be any mistakes." The man in black responded respectfully.
