Eighth Crown

"How is it done?"

Ornest walked into the laboratory, looked at the dazzling array of instruments in front of him, and asked the goth girl who was busy.

"With the resources you provided, it's halfway done."

Dotya wiped the sweat from his forehead, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, "As long as you give me another ten days, I will be able to refine this 'Sage's Stone'!"

"The Stone of the Sage is equivalent to a second life."

Dotya clenched his fist slightly, looking full of confidence, "Whether it is killed by a sword or a spear, poisoned by a curse, or died of illness, the Sage's Stone can give you a chance to resurrect, it is pure vitality. Crystallization is also the greatest invention in alchemy."

"But it also requires a lot of human life, ah, how pitiful."

As the minister said that, a happy smile appeared on his face.

With the sage's stone that is about to be refined, he at least has the possibility of escaping from Liu Xia's hands.

"Don't be too happy."

Dotya shrugged and said helplessly: "Unless you can't confirm what means he used, you just saved your life with the help of the Sage's Stone, it doesn't mean you can escape control."

"The old man knows."

Ornest stroked his beard, with an inexplicable smile on his face, "Until the sage's stone is refined, I don't plan to go out from the ground, until the sage's stone is completed, then the old man As long as you die in front of him once, you can disappear from his eyes."

"Then the old man was resurrected with the help of the sage's stone, and he can still control the country secretly."

He was basically thinking of feigning death, no, he was actually dead, but with the power of the Sage's Stone, he could be resurrected again.

As long as the operation is done properly, he can use death to escape Liu Xia's sight and turn the completely passive situation. Not to mention whether he can confront Liu Xia directly after that, but at least he doesn't have to be threatened by the opponent all the time.

This is also a way out of nowhere.

"Even if your son dies, you don't care?"

Dotya glanced at Ornest and asked casually.

"The son can be reborn."

There was no trace of sadness on Ernest's face, but he said indifferently: "It's just, I didn't expect that the wild hound I specially helped him set up couldn't even delay the time, what a waste. ."

Dotya glanced at him vaguely, sighing inwardly at his ruthlessness.

Sheila and his wild hounds, in Ernest's heart, were actually used to attract Liu Xia's attention. No matter what, they were also the lineup of all the emperor's envoys, and they were not much worse than the hunters. There is no need to delay for a long time, as long as the sage's stone is completed, so that he can return to the surface.

It turned out that the wild hound was so useless that it became extinct overnight, so he must now think of other ways to attract Liu Xia's attention.

In fact, he didn't need to think about these methods at first. After sending Liu Xia to an island thousands of miles away through Shangri-La, Ornest was working on refining the Sage's Stone.

According to his idea, he planned to trap Liuxia on the island until the sage's stone refining was completed. The formation of the wild hound was only a backstop prepared when the island could not trap Liuxia.

But Sheila, the bastard, secretly thought of 'getting a way to control Ornest from Liu Xia', and sent them back the next day. When he knew it, he almost ripped off Sheila's hand.

This tortoise son doesn't even look at how much he weighs. Even his father can't be nice in the process of confrontation with the other party, let alone him?

The results of it? Two days after the other party came back, he died.

Even with it, the entire Wild Hound was killed by the opponent, and only Dotya, who has been helping him refine the Sage's Stone here, escaped with his life.

This pitiful tortoise son.

Ornest suppressed his resentment towards the foolish son and turned to ask another matter.

"By the way, how is the transformation of the [Supreme Emperor Tool] going?"

There are two tasks he entrusted to Dotya, one is to refine the sage's stone, and the other is to transform the [Supreme Emperor].

"Humph, in this world, no one can surpass me in terms of alchemy talent!"

Dotiya put his hands on his hips, his face showed a complacent look, and the pink bow dangled on the top of his head, "Don't worry, the weakness of [Supreme Tegu] has been repaired by me, and the current supreme Tegu is absolutely invincible. No matter what kind of undead, night attack, or any resistance army or revolutionary army, they can never be the opponent of Supreme Emperor!"

"Oh! Beautiful!"

Ornest was refreshed, and the smile on his face quickly brightened.

His gaze crossed Dotiya and landed on the huge steel creation not far away.

It was the true pillar of imperial rule that had been maintained for millennia, a symbol of absolute oppression and dominance, immortal after millennia, and possessed a terrifying power comparable to that of the gods.

The first and strongest, and the supreme emperor!

This is the basement of the palace.

Although there have been rumors about the Supreme Emperor's Tool in the outside world, no one knows that the Supreme Emperor's Tool is actually stored in the underground of the palace.

This is a top-secret place that only a few people know, such as the little emperor and Ernest.

Even Liu Xia, who was looking for information through birds, could not know the existence of this place. Even if the other party knew, it was impossible to enter this place without the little emperor as the guide.

Therefore, the minister can safely hide here and wait for Dotya to finish refining the Sage's Stone.

Of course, it's not that no one comes and goes here.

The little emperor did not understand policy, and he did not know how to deal with the requests made by most of the ministers, and the only people he trusted most were the ministers, so he often brought the memorials of the ministers to listen to the opinions of the ministers.

Today is no exception. The little emperor walked into this underground secret room with an innocent and innocent expression.

No one noticed that on the hem of the little emperor's cloak, there was a small black spider lying there. After entering the secret room, it immediately fell from the cloak and hid in this incomparably wide secret room.

Although most magicians like to use birds as familiars, insects such as spiders are also very popular among magicians because of their extremely small size and simple operation.

A familiar like a spider, even a qualified magician, can control dozens or hundreds of them at will, and in Liu Xia's case, because of the huge amount of magic power, it is not a problem to control hundreds of them.

Although spiders have limited vision and hearing, and their intelligence capabilities are not as good as birds, it is really convenient to find objects, secret rooms, etc. by their size and number.
