I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]

Chapter 385

Julian's side has gained a lot, and Owen's side is not small.

Julian didn't wait for Owen to come back, but instead waited for the communication from the other party asking him to go there.

When he came to the cemetery, Julian saw the basement guarded by the paladins at a glance.

He greeted the knights, walked down the stairs at the entrance, and at the first sight of entering the basement, he, like Owen, was also surprised by the luxurious decoration here.

"I'm going, isn't Pastor Adam too luxurious?"

Owen was coming out of the inner room, and said with a sneer, "Not only that, this is not only luxurious, but also more amazing."

Julian looked at Owen in surprise. In his speculation, this Pastor Adam is obviously a bastard who should enjoy the death penalty, but seeing Owen's meaning... it seems that there is something hidden about this matter?

"Come and see."

Julian followed Owen to the stairs, and passed the stairs to the second floor of the basement.

This floor has a larger area than the previous floor, and the decoration is more luxurious. The floor is covered with thick velvet carpets, and the ceiling is covered with shining gems like stars.

There are two huge crystal windows on both sides of the room. The most shocking thing is that you can see a verdant and lush forest when you look out of the windows.

"How is this possible..." Julian walked over involuntarily, and felt the magic fluctuations emanating from there as soon as he got close.

"Magic circle?" Julian was speechless for a while. He never thought that someone would set up a magic circle just to simulate the scenery on the ground underground.

It's not that the effect of this magic circle is not good, but...it's not necessary at all.

If you want to see the scenery on the ground, why not build a house on the ground?Even if you want to hide, you can find some secluded places, why bother to dig a hole in the ground?

He couldn't help complaining to Owen that the magic circle was completely meaningless, but Owen said thoughtfully: "Either Adam has too much money to use, and he has to create a magic circle in a place where no one sees to show it." One's own financial resources, or... this magic circle must have other functions."

Julian also realized that he might have thought something wrong, walked to the bedside again, and carefully analyzed the function of the magic circle.

At first, he thought that the magic circle was just a simulation of natural scenery, but in fact it was a magic circle that transmitted real-time images.

In other words, this thing is some kind of surveillance screen.

"It's interesting." Julian looked at the window on the other side. The teleportation array over there is the same as the one here, and it is also a picture of monitoring a certain place.

"Unfortunately, this is a one-way teleportation magic circle, and there is no way to find these two places by reverse deduction." Julian was a little regretful, this kind of monitoring is one-sided, as long as a magic image stone and enough support are left there The energy of this one-way transmission magic circle can continue to run.

"This can be investigated slowly in the future. You can take a look at this first." He pushed open a small door and motioned for Julian to come over.

The small door seemed to be a warehouse, and there were more than a dozen bags piled up in the corner. Julian noticed that one bag had been opened, and guessed that Owen should have done it, so he walked over to take a look.

There are many stones in the bag, and each stone is the size of a fist. These stones are dusty and look ordinary, but it is definitely not ordinary stones that can be stored so carefully.

Julian was also polite, and directly used magic to cut a stone in half.

A burst of extremely pure energy erupted all of a sudden, and the guards above were shocked, and ran down to check, for fear that something might happen to the two of them.

"Magic crystal?" Julian exclaimed.

Owen frowned, and said to the knights outside: "Guard your surroundings and don't let anyone approach you."

Jason, who was standing at the door, was terrified, and immediately asked his subordinates to expand the defensive circle to include the entire cemetery.He himself took the initiative to stand outside the basement, and no one was allowed to approach here, including himself.

Julian's let go of his perception noticed Jason's actions, and he gave Owen a funny look: "You are quite clever."

Owen said casually: "It's okay, I'm quite satisfied so far."

Julian no longer paid attention to Jason, but stared at the bags of 'stones' on the ground thoughtfully: "Could Adam have discovered a magic crystal mine?"

"Very likely." Owen couldn't help but sullen, even he didn't expect Adam to be so courageous.

Magic crystal is the general term for all energy crystals. Any crystal rich in energy can be called magic crystal.

On this continent, magic crystals belong to the basic energy source. Most of the magic circles need magic crystals to drive, and the process of refining medicine and stroking also needs the support of magic crystals.

The magic crystal mine is a strategic material, and it is obviously impossible to allow private mining. The Maggie Kingdom once discovered a magic crystal mine, but the vein was very small, and the purity of the magic crystal produced was very low, so it was successfully preserved.

When the magic crystal was broken just now, Julian felt it. The purity of this batch of magic crystal raw ore is not low, and judging from the size of the magic crystal, it should come from a medium vein.Generally speaking, it is absolutely impossible for such a mine to be privately controlled. Even if the royal family is as powerful as his cheap uncle and trusted by His Majesty, once they discover the magic crystal mine, they must report it as soon as possible. mining.

What shocked Owen the most was this point. If Adam really discovered a magic crystal mine but did not report it, then there must be a huge network of interests hidden behind him, otherwise, it would be impossible to easily hide this kind of news down.

The mining and purification of ore requires a lot of manpower and technology. The four major empires and several major churches are deliberately controlling this technology. Once it is discovered that someone is digging the magic crystal mine in private, they will definitely be severely punished.

"This is a big trouble." Owen also felt very headache when he saw these magic crystal mines.

He has even foreseen how the church and the empire will fight over the mining rights of the magic crystal mine...

But he was the one who discovered this matter, even if he wanted to hide it, he couldn't avoid it.

"This matter involves too much interest. I need to report to the Holy City to make a decision." Owen took out the crystal ball with a headache and contacted that old fox Roland.

It is better to leave this matter to that old guy. As a high-end military force of the church, he should take part in these political struggles as little as possible.

"Wait." Julian's heart moved, and an idea suddenly popped up.

"Ok?"

"This matter must not be hidden from the empire, right?"

Owen nodded. This vein must be on the land of the empire. It is impossible for the church to mine it without the knowledge of the empire.

"Since we will definitely share it with the empire afterwards, why don't we say hello in advance?" Julian looked at Owen with a smile.

Owen suddenly thought of something, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "You want to use this to please your cheap uncle?"

Julian gave him a blank look: "What is flattery, it is a win-win situation."

According to the laws of the empire, those who discover the magic crystal mine can enjoy 30.00% of the mining rights of the magic crystal mine. Even if the mining rights may shrink due to the existence of more churches, it still represents a considerable benefit.

Uncle Cheap was so kind to him, he was really a little embarrassed, just happened to encounter such a good thing of borrowing flowers and presenting Buddha, it would be a pity to miss it.

Owen thought about it, and had to admit that Julian's idea was right.

If he reports it to the church, the rewards will definitely not be less, and the empire will definitely not be able to hide it. Instead of letting the empire monopolize the benefits, why not let 'our own people' share some of the benefits?

Owen has always known how to be flexible, as long as the interests of the church and him are not infringed, he naturally doesn't mind using this news to please Julian's natal family.

The two quickly made a decision. Owen contacted Roland, and Julian dialed Ikanser's communication number.

The crystal ball was connected as soon as it lit up, and Ikanser's slightly surprised face appeared on the crystal ball.

"Julian, are you in any trouble?" Ikanser asked with concern.

"No, there is one thing I want to ask uncle."

"Tell me." Ikanser was in a great mood, and made up his mind that no matter how difficult his little nephew's request was, he would help him solve it.

"It's like this..." Julian picks and chooses his own experience with Owen, emphasizing that they may have discovered a magic crystal mine.

Ikanser, who was still smiling at the beginning, gradually lowered his face. After hearing the words "Magic Crystal Mine", his pupils were even more confused, and he said in a deep voice, "Did you read that right?"

Julian simply changed the direction of the crystal ball, took out a dagger and broke open a full bag.

The stones in the bag were scattered all over the ground, and he randomly picked one and cut the outer stone skin, immediately revealing the pure crystal inside.

"It's a very pure magic crystal mine." Ikanser said to Julian with a serious face, "Stay there and don't leave. I'll send someone there immediately."

After a pause, he emphasized again: "You must be careful. Since the magic crystal mine is involved, you must have guessed it. The water in this matter is very deep, and no one can guarantee that the people behind the scenes will put all their eggs in one basket to kill people."

Julian and Owen glanced at each other, and at the same time their hearts trembled.I almost forgot that there is such an operation as killing and silence.

The two exchanged a look, and Julian said to Ikanser, "I understand, uncle." Owen then turned and left, saying that all the paladins guarding the periphery were anxious to come back.

They came out to investigate this time and did not hide their whereabouts at all. The people behind the scenes may have discovered the clues they found.If the other party really intends to kill people, they can only kill all the witnesses and destroy the evidence before the church and others arrive.

Without the evidence, the so-called magic crystal mine would naturally cease to exist.

"Be careful." Ikanser emphasized again that no one knew better than him what those people could do for profit, so he was more worried about Julian's safety.

"No, I'm still worried. I can go there in about half an hour." Ikanser was afraid that Julian would be in danger, so he decided that it would be safer to go there by himself.

Julian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Uncle, I am also a seventh-level magician anyway, so I won't..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang and the ground shook. Julian hurriedly propped up the protective cover and ran towards the entrance of the basement. Before he reached the place, the narrow entrance suddenly collapsed. He was sealed in the basement.

Julian: ...

day!Does this count as burial?

Owen Diary:

Enemy attack!Fight!
