Chapter 220: Ancient Ruins of the Dark Elves

Chapter 220 The Ancient Ruins of the Dark Elves

The dark elf brothers and sisters did only bring some personal equipment. Apart from a pair of double blades, the brothers and sisters each carried a luggage and hung some similar accessories on their bodies.

"The place we are going to is very cold, is it really okay for you to look like this?" Steve looked at the outfits of the brother and sister, and felt that the two did not seem to be going to a cold region in the extreme north, but more like Go to the sunny beach to enjoy the sun and sand.

"It doesn't matter, these equipments are specially used to resist the severe cold." Cecil pointed to the small ornaments on his body. These ornaments, which seem to be purely for decoration and to make his outfit more gorgeous, are actually dark elves. The most commonly used thermal products.

"It looks very good, beautiful and convenient." After Steve knew that his worries were unnecessary, he didn't say much to the siblings. He didn't have much in common with the two historians.

In comparison, he was more chatting with David.

"You want to join this time, but you actually want to talk to me, right?"

"No, I want to come out and relax, and talking about things is by the way."

"It seems that Karma Taj's course is giving you a headache!"

Kama Taj’s mage courses are many and complicated. If you want to become a supreme mage, you must first be a famous scholar!

In the countless parallel universes of Marvel, there are not no world lines in which Steve becomes the supreme mage, but the way he becomes the supreme mage is a bit special.

In contrast, Tony Stark can become the supreme mage by studying hard.

However, Steve has no intention of giving up. Anyway, he already knows that the key factor for Ancient One to choose him to become the supreme mage is holy light.

He only needs to master some of the abilities and knowledge necessary for the supreme mage, and then in the position of the supreme mage, after spreading the Holy Light to the entire Karma Taj, he can retire!

After that, either catch Tony to take over the pot; or guide Stephen Strange to become the supreme mage according to the original historical line; or... Let Wanda Maximoff, who is currently in the Hydra special operations team Come take over.

These people are all good choices. Even if these people have various problems, there is still a king.

Steve, who has clearly arranged his future and escape route, does not feel so much pressure in Karma Taj.

In comparison, Hydra has more headaches for him.

Winter Soldier Bucky-Barnes has been 'rescued', and Steve even cured Bucky's 'schizophrenia' by consulting the ancient one.

At present, Bucky just doesn't have a suitable opportunity to clean up, so he can only continue to 'undercover' with him in Hydra.

How to whitewash Bucky? Bucky's mission also included the matter of Tony's parents, and Steve didn't think about what to do?

Also, most of Hydra's members are more ambitious, not just a few dry words of justice and evil can easily persuade them to betray their original beliefs or leaders and turn to their own subordinates.

No matter how great Steve’s personal charm is, he has to meet the basic demands of these people before he can “poach” them.

"I'm thinking, arrange Rumlow to come to Winter Town..."

"..." David looked at Steve, waiting for the next sentence.

"Rumlow is very ambitious, he won't be satisfied with work like maintaining world peace, but here he seems to be more likely to realize his dream."

"You're talking like I'm an evil villain trying to rule the world."

"You said this, but I didn't say it."

"..."

Ignore Steve's jokes, and only think about Rumlow, David thinks there is nothing wrong with it.

Crossbones Brock-Rumlow is considered a talent. As for ambition, he doesn’t want to replace him as a leader. That kind of ambition is not a problem for David at all, and it may even become David’s help.

"If you can persuade Rumlow to come over, I am willing to accept him!"

"This is absolutely no problem." Steve's ostensible identity also includes the frontline operations commander of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the secret service team in charge of Rumlow often follows Steve's command to perform various tasks.

Later, after Steve became Hydra, Rumlow was also Steve's direct subordinate, and the relationship between the two parties was very 'good'!

Because of enough familiarity and understanding, Steve wanted Rumlow to come to Winter Town—to find a more meaningful goal for these hydra, without wasting the abilities and talents of these people, and at the same time further Hollow out the corners of Hydra.

When people like Rumlow find new survival value in Cold Winter Town, are they still willing to work for Hydra?

Especially after seeing how 'broad' the world is and how many 'powerful' existences there are in Cold Winter Town, they know that Hydra's plan is impossible to succeed.

Still cleaning up in secret, let Hydra completely become a thing of the past, and turn into a cloud of smoke without anyone knowing, then follow his will.

The two talked for a while, and after deciding on Hydra's future, the Quin-jet fighter also arrived at the target area.

Cecil was searching for the corresponding location based on the data in his mind, and finally directed Tony, who was driving the fighter, to land near the target location.

A group of people got off the Quin-jet fighter plane and carefully observed the surroundings.

Krause, Sylvanas, and Laura have already held the bow in their hands, Steve has also taken out his shield from the storage space, and Tony has put on his steel armor.

However, after looking around, they felt that their precautions seemed unnecessary. There didn't seem to be any dangerous creatures here.

There is no vegetation to be seen around, and a few trees are sparsely located in the south. This should be the northernmost part of the Winter Forest.

They are at the foot of the Pillar of the World at this time, and there is no smooth road to go on. The west is still the vast Lindong River. The flow of this river is amazing. Even the location near the source is so wide. The source of water is not just snow melted from the mountains.

"How do I go next?"

Everyone looked at the dark elf Cecil. After observing back and forth several times, Cecil finally pointed out a direction: continue to the Pillar of the World!

"Mountain climbing?"

"No!" Cecil shook his head and denied Tony's guess: "According to the information I found, the dark elves used to prefer to build some important buildings underground, in caves and other places."

So, what they're looking for is a cave.

Continuing to move forward, Tony Stark used the steel armor to fly and search in the air, and soon found a cave.

This cave is not hidden at all, and it is not far from the Lindong River. After a group of people came here, they looked at the obvious traces of man-made decoration at the entrance of the cave. After they could barely see the stone pillars and steles with dark elf-style patterns, they knew they had found the right place.

"Ha, it's much simpler than expected."

Things went so smoothly, Tony once again opened his poisonous tongue: "Could it be possible that such an obvious relic has been discovered long ago? Did you brothers and sisters come a bit late?"

"..."

Cecil also had this idea, but he didn't find any detailed information about it from the Eternal Night Empire. Even the information that could guide him to find this place was all he made up by combining multiple records.

"It should not have been discovered."

He firmly believes that this is still an undiscovered relic, probably because the Eternal Night Empire is too far away from here!

As for why humans didn't discover this place... He already knew that Cold Winter Town is the most border area of Tilan Kingdom. It is too cold and barren for humans to live in such a place.

Everyone didn't stay here for too long at the entrance of the cave. No matter what the situation was, they had already reached the entrance. How could they stop here?

No one on the scene was a cold-blooded person, and David even spread out his hands to condense a cloud of holy light, which was suspended above his head to act as a lighting device.

The people who had just taken out the lighting equipment stopped their actions one after another.

Only Cecil and Enid looked at David, the lord of Cold Winter Town, in surprise.

Before this time, the brothers and sisters thought that the lord of Cold Winter Town was simply a ruler and manager, so when they came to investigate this time, they were surrounded by 'so many guards'.

It was only when David released the holy light that they realized that the lord was actually a spellcaster with mysterious power.

But he didn't think too much, he had already found the ruins, and he was eager to know what information was preserved here?

Continue to go deeper into the interior, and after passing through a long corridor that is not particularly long and looks a bit old and dilapidated, but the whole is in good condition, you come to a hall.

In order to better see the situation in the hall, David made the holy light above his head brighter, and at the same time raised it to a higher position, as if installing a chandelier for the empty hall.

Following David's actions, everyone also saw clearly the situation in the hall: except for a small stone platform in the middle, there was nothing around.

"That's it?" Tony looked around, and there were no traces of destruction except for the traces of corrosion by the ages: "You don't have any records about this relic, in fact, it's because there is no information here, right?"

Cecil looked at the surrounding situation, and was also a little disappointed. He just walked quickly to the only stone platform unwillingly, trying to grasp the last glimmer of hope.

"Impossible! How could there be nothing?" After looking up and down, I still didn't find anything special.

Until Enid came up and wanted to comfort her brother, the seemingly ordinary stone platform suddenly emitted a ray of light, which shone straight on Enid's body.
