Chapter 706: Frontier Town

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Weier Kingdom was a kingdom that was rich with history in the New World. Thousands of years ago, that kingdom had been constantly expanding, taking up an immense amount of territory. Only, later on, there were various internal problems, causing their majestic country to not even manage to hold on for a century before they were overturned by a military coup.

However, the Weier Kingdom had been quite fortunate. During the rebellion, one of the members of their royalty managed to escape. After a few twists and turns, they managed to establish a new country. Even though it was not as strong as it used to be, it was still an impressive story, and it formed the current Weier Union. After that, they constantly met a lot of tribulations, and the country had been on the brink of annihilation countless times, but that weak country mysteriously managed to survive.

And then, the colonists from Earth appeared, exhibiting extraordinary combat skills, complete with mystical technology, finally giving the Weier Union’s royalty a chance.

It could not help but be said that the country’s people were all very astute. They knew how to survive in the cracks that the strong left behind, and protect themselves in the biggest way possible. That was the main reason they managed to survive destruction.

The Weier royalty had thought that they made an intelligent choice. In the recent years, they had also been researching the colonists from Earth, and they knew very well that the British and American academies did not have much of a relationship with Dawn Academy, and determined that Dawn academy would not dare to offend them easily. However, they were wrong this time, and incredibly so. Dawn Academy did not mobilize easily, and when it did, it shocked everyone.

Even though it was only the second day after the declaration of war, the Weier capital had already been surrounded. Dawn Academy had made a lot of preparations, and had established various magical posts around the city, never allowing anyone out of the royal capital. Anyone who dared to venture outside would be immediately dealt with, but the academy did not rush to attack the city. Even though the two sides had a very unique difference in ability, and they would be able to conquer the city in two days at most, or even induce a surrender earlier than that, Dawn Academy’s goal was obviously not that simple, so they never attacked.

Song Junlang and Xiao Lin’s target was not the royal capital, as they were not dumb enough to head into a web that would capture them immediately. Their final goal was a little town that was all the way at the border that was called Frontier Town.

Frontier Town was not big, and was only the size of a low-tier country back at Dawn Academy. The population was not that large either, and the little town was considered a meaningless existence in Weier decades ago. It was distant and devoid of any valuable resources, nor did it have any special products.

However, after the power of the colonists stabilized, the town slowly gained the attention of the colonists. There was not much of a reason other than the fact that Frontier Town was an ancient town, and the town had thousands of years of history. It was the only town in Weier Union that still preserved the remnants of the kings back in the past.

Of course, that did nothing to change the old and desolate state of the town, and the local natives did not really have much respect for cultural objects. In their eyes, broken down things should be replaced with the new. The fact that Frontier Town could be preserved for so long was just because many of the ancient buildings had deep foundations, meaning getting rid of them needed large amounts of money and manpower, something that the poor town could not afford. So, it was slowly preserved.

To the colonists who were fascinated with history and culture, Frontier Town was a very valuable place to explore. Not only that, but those scholars who wanted to research the history of the New World placed a lot of importance on Frontier Town.

The Weier Union’s royalty that was slowly becoming accustomed to the way of life of Earth had a stroke of genius, and decided to spend some money in converting the place into a tourist destination. In recent years, they had managed to make quite a lot of money from the colonists from the small town.

During the journey, Xiao Lin quietly listened to Song Junlang talk about the town, and could not help but remark that this kingdom was filled with talented merchants. He also slowly guessed why Song Junlang was bringing him to that town.

“Does Frontier Town have a Shard of Creation?”

“It’s very strange, though. Even though I haven’t found out how to determine the location of Shards of Creation, how did you find out?

“Did the old dean determine the locations beforehand and tell you?”

Xiao Lin asked a few questions, as if he had turned into a curious baby who had just entered the academy. Song Junlang was a little exasperated, but he did not complain. Even though Xiao Lin did not say it, Song Junlang could acutely feel Xiao Lin’s disappointment.

It was the disappointment of losing his power. It was something only people who had experienced power knew about, especially those who were incredibly strong; it dealt a far greater blow to them.

Xiao Lin was trying to shift his attention to something else, not wanting his disappointment to affect their travels. So, he tried to understand as much as possible, trying to see where he could help.

“Not shards, just a vessel,” Song Junalng answered after thinking about it.

“The shards require a carrier, and that would also let me know how many of the shards you’ve collected. This was actually something that the old dean had gotten some historians to look into quietly years ago. They practically looked into all of the New World’s history before finally locking into the Weier Kingdom thousands of years ago. It’s a pity that the only place that really held onto their history in the country is Frontier Town. So, hopefully we’ll be able to find what we want there, or the research from all those years would have been wasted.”

“I thought I was the vessel?” Xiao Lin somewhat jokingly said.

“That’s right, and wrong as well. More precisely, after thoroughly grasping the power of law, you can actually turn into the vessel, but you’re not currently one. Even the state you were in when you activated Myth and absorbed the power of law was not it either.”

Song Junlang fell silent for a moment before continuing, “I don’t really know much of the general information. There are many things the vessels are called, but since we’re in the Weier Union, we should just use their term. A few thousand years ago, it was called the Holy Grail; that was the phrase we found the most of in their history books.”

“That’s our target for this journey. If something like that exists in Frontier Town, then we must find it! If it doesn’t, then we will look into other ancient sites until we find it!”
