442: Chapter 442 Bola and Bolate_1 442: Chapter 442 Bola and Bolate_1 Staring at Feng Yuan for a long ti, the middle-aged man seed hesitant to explain, until Jenna spoke up from the side
“Uncle Bolate, this shouldn’t be a secret that can’t be spoken of, right?”
With a sigh, Bolate laughed self-deprecatingly and said,
“Indeed, perhaps there’s no need to keep this secret after all.”
Sitting back at the desk, Bolate supported his head with his hands as he looked at everyone and said,
“This all began with sothing that happened when I was a child.”
“Once, we were just like ordinary people, until we encountered it…”
Bolate said with a complex expression.
“It gave us powerful design abilities, though my ability only applies to architecture, and it also made see the cruel reality…”
“It also told us so truths that ordinary people couldn’t possibly know.”
Bolate stood up, walked to the window, and gazed out at the fog as he said,
“The Divine Lords we usually refer to are so insignificant in front of true gods, and they shoulder the responsibility of guarding the world.”
“Although it didn’t tell us much more, I could guess that there are many invaders in this world.”
“Then why don’t you…”
After glancing at Jenna, Bolate smiled and said,
“Who do you think I could ask for help?
Those tourists?
They’re just here to visit and might not encounter any danger, but if I ask them for help, do you really think they could escape from here?”
“But…”
“If you don’t have strength comparable to that of Lorraine Tower, you better go back early, it’s not sothing you can defeat.”
Feng Yuan glanced at Najia with a smile and said,
“You seem to underestimate Najia.
I believe that even without the White Wolf Deity’s intervention, it can handle the opponent.”
“White Wolf Deity?
I don’t recall it ever ntioning that, it probably hasn’t reached the height of Lorraine Tower.”
“In that case, you’d better leave quickly; you should be able to avoid them from here and get out of this place.”
Bolate said while pulling out a book from the bookshelf beside him, casually tore out a few pages, and stuffed them into Jenna’s hands saying,
“You quickly take them and leave, it won’t be long before they find out about your visit here.”
“But…”
Jenna looked hesitant, and Feng Yuan sighed,
“We’re really not afraid of them, we only ca to find if there might be any secret passages leading into the castle.”
Feng Yuan said and turned around with a hint of regret,
“It looks like we’ll have to force our way through the main entrance.”
“You…
are you really determined to go?”
Feng Yuan turned his head towards Bolate and said,
“Otherwise, what?”
“Well… alright, I’ll give you the map of the castle’s secret passages, but if you find yourselves overpowered by the opponent, you must leave imdiately.
Don’t fight a hopeless battle there…”
Bolate said as he pulled out another book from the bookshelf, about to hand over the drawings to Jenna when he suddenly rembered sothing and said,
“If you’re going through the secret passages, you’ll need to find Bola, I only have the blueprint here.
He set up the chanisms inside, and I’m not sure where the traps might be.”
“Uncle Bola…”
Jenna whispered as she held the blueprint.
That’s when she saw that the torches outside seed to be converging towards this place, Bolate hurriedly said,
“You better leave fast, they seem to have noticed sothing’s off here.”
“Let’s go.”
Feng Yuan said, and then looked back at Bolate again,
“The one who gave you the abilities, was it Ernis?”
“How did you know!”
Bolate asked in surprise, but by that ti, Feng Yuan had already left the room.
“Why would Ernis give humans abilities?”
Qi Chen asked with so confusion, and Feng Yuan waved his hand saying,
“How would I know, I’m not a worm in its stomach.”
“But how did you guess it was Ernis?”
Feng Yuan glanced at Qi Chen and said,
“It’s quite simple.
In the Oilia Region, the Divine Beast with authority over construction and chanisms is the only one, other than that, there’s no alternative.”
“Gujien isn’t?”
Feng Yuan gave Qi Xiaoshuang an exasperated look and said,
“Gujien is a modern Divine Beast.
It wasn’t even born in the Dynasty Era, let alone the fact that Gujien presides over weapons.
Its special ability is to transform into various existing weapons, which is different from chanisms.”
“But Ernis is about the authority of creation, right?”
“Ernis can create non-living chanical entities.
Do you think chanisms and buildings are included in that?”
Qi Xiaoshuang said, sowhat displeased,
“Your explanation is a bit…”
“After all, it’s the Guardian Beast of the region.
They typically have rather extensive authority.
Where to next?”
Descending to the basent, Feng Yuan curiously looked at Jenna, who pulled out so schematics and reviewed them before saying,
“We go this way, the kitchen has a secret passageway leading to Bola’s workshop.”
“The kitchen?
The relationship between those two must be really good.”
“But it makes sense; after all, they are people who received Ernis’s blessing together.
They’re bound to be closer.”
Feng Yuan said with a smile.
“Jenna?!
How did you get here?”
“Um, Uncle Bola, I need your help with sothing.”
Jenna said, slightly embarrassed, to Bola, who was clad in pajamas.
After listening to Jenna’s explanation, Bola responded with a grave expression,
“I’m aware of this matter.
After all, Bolate once talked to about it, but since I discovered that I couldn’t leave, I haven’t found any particularly good solutions.”
“Thanks for the gift~”
Feng Yuan suddenly said sothing weird to Bola, making everyone puzzled.
Jenna was the first to catch on, smiled at Bola and said,
“He recognized the tools in your cabin.
At that ti, I thought there were two of you, so I took the liberty of giving that set of tools to him…”
“Which set of tools?”
Bola asked, puzzled.
That’s when Feng Yuan took out the tools he had acquired from Bolaon’s cabin and said,
“These are the fine tools crafted from Starsteel.”
“Oh, that set.
Since you recognized them, giving them to you is actually the best outco for them,” Bola said, smiling and walking over to a workbench to pick up a set of tools exactly like the ones in Feng Yuan’s hands.
“The set I left there was useless to ; it could only gather dust.
I believe you will take good care of the tools.”
“Of course~”
“However, if you’re talking about the schematics for chanisms, I actually don’t have them here.
I only created those chanisms, but how and where to arrange them was their own doing.”
Hearing Bola’s words, Jenna looked disappointed, but then Bola said with a smile,
“It’s not like there’s no solution at all.
Although I’m not quite sure where all the chanisms were placed, I can accompany you to the Divine Stone Chamber.
No matter how well they’ve hidden the chanisms, they can’t escape my eyes.”
“Just give a mont; I’ll get dressed and grab my tools.”
After a short while, Bola, now dressed in practical work clothes suitable for action, told everyone,
“Let’s go.
If they discover us, they might move the Miracle Stone away, and that would complicate matters.”
Following the directions on the schematics, the group snuck past the guards and quietly infiltrated Noscarte Castle through the underground secret passageways.
“Stop, there’s a chanism here.”
Bola told the group earnestly as he cautiously manipulated the tools in his hands.
After a while, Bola wiped off sweat and said,
“Done, it’s taken care of.”
But not long after proceeding further, Bola discovered another trap.
This ti Feng Yuan took out his tools and said,
“Let help.”
“Can you?”
Bola looked at Feng Yuan with concern, but seeing him casually fiddle with the chanism and identify its core, Bola said with a smile,
“I didn’t expect your expertise in chanisms to be so high.
It seems my tools won’t go to waste with you.”
A little later, facing another chanism, Feng Yuan seed increasingly impatient.
Qi Chen sensed sothing was wrong with Feng Yuan’s mood and felt a sense of foreboding; indeed, after disarming a few more chanisms, Feng Yuan said sowhat angrily,
“I’m done playing!
Let’s fix this with magic!”
As Bola looked on in confusion, the White Wolf Deity slowly moved to the front of the group and unleashed a powerful blast of cold air, instantly freezing the entire passageway.
The flickering candle flas were sealed within solid ice.
Bola, in disbelief, relied on the light Feng Yuan summoned, stepped forward and tapped the ice with his tools.
