Sipping his favorite herbal tea, Raymond sat in the chair with a smile on his face.
This Jonas is truly a man of seconds.
His family is a wizarding family in the central region, and it is said that his biological uncle is a high-level member of a certain wizarding organization. However, Jonas, who has been trained as a successor to the family since he was a child, has an inexplicable interest in the excavation of ruins after the age of thirty.
interest.
Originally, his family thought it was just his temporary curiosity, so they gave him a considerable degree of support.
Collect information about such ruins, form a team suitable for him to explore the ruins, and even hire high-level wizards to protect him.
However, this kind of adventurous life made Jonas so happy that he even left everything about his family behind.
As a result, after the family elders got angry, Jonas lost these safety protections, which led to a serious incident that almost wiped out the entire group.
A ruin that was not considered dangerous in the first place, but something went wrong when Jonas insisted on exploring it. A magical trap suddenly emerged from the ground, almost causing the entire team that Jonas had formed to be destroyed.
Six followers with great knight strength died on the spot, and three first-level wizards who were invited to join the team were all cursed by spells. Fortunately, Jonas was protected by a powerful magic weapon from his family, and only four wizards were left.
The team was able to escape from the ruins.
However, the family rescue team that arrived quickly afterwards was ultimately unable to save the lives of Jonas's three friends. Moreover, Jonas himself was told after receiving treatment that not only would his strength not be improved, but also that he would not be able to improve his strength.
He will have to eat activated organisms every day throughout his life to maintain the continuation of his life.
"Although my family has deprived me of my right to inherit, fortunately, it regularly provides these activated creatures as a guarantee of continued life," Jonas, who smiled wryly, concluded with a self-deprecating tone. "The only reason why I am still alive now is because of the hope of my family.
Before I am killed by the toxins of the activated creatures, I can contribute a descendant to the family!"
Having said this, Jonas reluctantly patted his backpack containing the activated creature, causing a noisy squeaking sound to be heard immediately inside.
After fully understanding Jonas's past, Raymond could only offer sympathy and comfort to his current situation.
It is obvious that this wizard with an extremely weird laugh must be a fanatical researcher, otherwise he would not still be obsessed with pursuing these relics even when he is facing losing his inheritance rights.
"My dear friend, are you interested in exploring the ruins?" After Jonas finished explaining everything, Frances, who was sitting next to Raymond, spoke up. "You know, I am very concerned about this kind of risky behavior.
I’m not interested, but I think Lord Raymond should be interested in where Jonas is going this time.”
Raymond turned his face sideways and looked at Frances, frowning. "How do you say this?"
"Lord Raymond, aren't you interested in those Nicotiana tabacum seeds?" Jonas took over the topic without letting Frances continue to explain. "This time there are similar barrels in the ruins, and the discoverer will also make a copy.
The pictures were also delivered to me."
While talking, Jonas handed over a few pieces of paper.
It was an extremely sloppy sketch, but when Raymond saw the second one, his heart beat violently involuntarily.
The barrel was exactly the same as the one that held the goldenrod seeds. The familiar federal symbol was outlined in a very similar shape. What particularly surprised Raymond was the triangular warning mark on the barrel, which meant that the liquid nitrogen stored inside it was
Precious items saved!
Suppressing his excitement, after letting the chip scan and save the sketch, Raymond looked at the subsequent pictures.
It should be observed from a small hole. There are some problems with the angles of the two sketches below, but it can vaguely be seen as a spaceship cargo compartment.
Faced with Jonas's eager eyes, Raymond still shook his head.
He turned around and asked Frances. "Let's slow down this matter for a moment. I have a question I want to ask you today."
Making an apologetic gesture to Jonas, Frances relaxed her body and leaned on the backrest. "Please tell me!"
After directly telling the three prohibitions about gray dwarves, Raymond asked bluntly about the reasons for such prohibitions and whether there was any way to avoid them.
With a puzzled look on her face, Frances looked a little stunned after listening to Raymond's story. He scratched his head and turned his attention to Jonas.
"Frances knows about the existence of the ban at most, but he doesn't know the root cause," Jonas, who was still puffing out a cigarette in his mouth, spoke up. "This is a restriction collectively formulated by the central wizarding organization.
Population and residence time can be ignored, but intermarriage is absolutely not allowed."
It turns out that the gray dwarves came from the underground world, but after their main city was destroyed by some wizard organizations, these gray dwarves began to disperse.
Originally, these three prohibitions did not exist, but later the local wizards discovered that after these gray dwarves from the underground world intermarried with the local indigenous people, they would give birth to mutant descendants that were too powerful!
Therefore, in order to prevent the gray dwarves from becoming stronger again, this almost unreasonable ban was formed after a joint resolution by the wizard organization.
Jonas, who was holding a cigarette in his mouth, saw that Raymond's expression was a little ugly, and he shook his head helplessly. "Giant gray dwarves who have the structure of a knight when they are born, and can understand witchcraft within thirty years, think about it.
It will be disappointing!”
After quickly digesting these inside stories, Raymond frowned and understood the reason.
Thousands of years of hatred have caused the gray dwarves to become a huge threat to the local wizards in the goblin world, but it is still necessary to maintain necessary suppression.
Nodding, Raymond pondered for a moment before slowly speaking. "Frances, if you can allow it, I still hope that these gray dwarves can move to live near Ram Castle. Their current situation is really miserable.
"
"My dear friend, I am deeply sorry for what happened to these gray dwarves," Frances put one hand on her chest to express her sincerity, and made his request directly. "As long as they do not violate the third prohibition, then I can allow them
Make your home near Ram Castle.”
Knowing that this was the limit that the local wizards could tolerate, Raymond stood up and expressed his heartfelt thanks to Frances. "Your tolerance will make the gray dwarf tribe your loyal people..." (To be continued. Please
