Chapter 14

Looking around, except for the statue of the seven gods, which seems to have been renovated once in front of the hall, Joshua did not find any information worthy of attention. This is an ordinary church, with wooden seats, painted glass, fine murals and statues. Although it is a little old, it is very clean, and there is no dust: "the prayer hall is still the same, But it doesn't feel dirty. Is someone cleaning it? "

The seven statues in front of the hall mean that the place is not dedicated to a particular God, but to all the seven gods of mankind. As Joshua can see, this is the most popular pan faith temple on the road. After all, for the people, it is better to believe in seven than only one.

"I've been here..."

After thinking for a while, Joshua patted the wooden chair next to his body with his right hand and asserted: "there was a time when I was a child, my father would bring me every Sunday."

In the past, Joshua would have thought that his father was more godly, but now it seems that there must be some secret behind it. He frowned and seriously recalled: "at that time, he would go to a room in the side hall alone and leave me to play with the Knights. There must be a secret in it."

As soon as he thought about it, Joshua went to the side hall room where he still had an impression. He went through the altar and the confessional room. He came to the dark side hall with few windows. When he came to the door of the room on the left in the middle, Joshua felt the heat of the back of his hand again.

"It seems that this is the right place."

Tried, found that the door is not locked, open the door into the room, at a glance, Joshua found that this closed room is not dark.

This is a private study. The floor is made of black granite. On the ceiling, there are some golden stones as the light source. They should be fragments of fluorite. There are huge bookcases on the four walls. In the center, there is a desk made of flying cloud wood. Looking at this furnishing, Joshua can't help but tut. He has some feelings: "the fragments of fluorite are OK, Feiyun wood is a kind of high-grade wood symbiotic with Fuyue dragon. Its texture is enough to be used as a weapon. It's used as a desk... "

It's not the time to pay homage to the local tyrant. He looked around with the light of the fluorite fragments, and soon found clues.

"There's a crack in the floor."

Legendary warrior's eyes are so sharp, even if the strength is not the same as before, but the observation ability is still strong. In addition, players are good at scraping the ground three feet to find clues. Joshua is extremely skilled in finding the obvious flaw on the floor: "although the cover is very good, the wear caused by frequent opening can't be removed."

He held out his hand and was ready to try whether there were any switches and traps around him. However, when his hand touched the special granite floor, a magic pattern flashed on the surface. Just when Joshua thought that he had triggered the trap and was preparing to retreat, a low and rigid machine sound came up.

"Energy detection... Frequency band match, target: Joshua van Radcliffe, first in line, highest authority sequence, door open."

"From fire, from steel, wisdom never dies, and order never dies."

With the old eulogy, the black rock slowly opened, and a narrow passage leading to the underground appeared in front of Joshua. However, he stopped for a moment and did not go in immediately. Joshua frowned and began to recall the source of the eulogy.

At the end of the third edition of mainland China, there is a very difficult public copy in the void of the new map star world. Its full name is "the ancient sacrificial arena connecting Wanjie". Players usually call it Wanjie sacrificial arena for short. In the core area of this public copy, there is a huge obelisk with a stone tablet at the entrance, There are many inscriptions written in ancient Chinese.

And that's where the praise came from.

It is said that before the world came into eternity, the whole multiverse was nothing, nothing but the indescribable chaos wriggling in the solitude.

However, fire is born out of nothingness, light shines on the void, and distinguishes existence and nothingness, order and chaos, light and darkness. This fire is the initial source of all things. It gives all beings the power to make chaos retreat and matter manifest. This is the origin of the world where all things live today.

The fire burns out the chaos, and the remaining remains are steel. With the reinforcement of order, life is gradually born. Everything gets soul and wisdom from the fire, and also gets body and strength from the steel. Human is one of them.

Relying on fire, people name everything that has no name, summarize the rules and logic, improve the order, and determine the value and significance of everything. People use the hope brought by fire, persistence and enthusiasm to open up the wild world. Steel is the beginning of creation and the source of strength. It is born by fire, but pure by people. People use bones and stones, Bronze and steel casting tools and weapons, dealing with all disasters, battles and disputes, people use steel belt to be calm, rational and fierce, dealing with all problems, trying all crimes that should be judged.From fire, from steel, wisdom never dies, order never dies.

This is the earliest and only creation myth known to the players in the disputed continent. Even the seven gods of the human race and the gods of other races have not refuted this statement. In those years, Joshua also saw the exquisite post of textual research and analysis of this myth in the game forum, but he was not interested at all and did not open it at all.

After all, the current mainstream belief is the seven gods of the human race. The worship of the initial fire and the steel of origin has long since retreated. Only in ancient books can we see a trace of them.

"I remember that the mages of guantian white tower demonstrated that magic comes from the remnants of the initial fire in the multiverse, and fighting Qi is the condensation of the original steel power in every life body."

Joshua gazed at the passage and went straight down.

There is nothing to worry about. Anyway, he will go down. In that case, there is no need to hesitate.

The passage to the ground is not long. Every other distance, there will be shining fluorite fragments embedded in the wall to provide light. Soon, Joshua came to the bottom, an empty hall.

In the middle of the hall is a huge statue, which is a huge hand holding a hammer and winding around the black snake. The courage contained in it makes people feel that the hand will wave the hammer and strike the earth at the next moment.

On the four sides of the hall, there are many rooms, in which there are many instruments commonly used by alchemists and mages, and even crystal forging table and element furnace core, which are extremely expensive. People can't help but have the illusion of coming to the great alchemist workshop. However, there is only one channel in front of him that attracts Joshua. He has a premonition, At the end of the passage, there is a call for him.

Joshua walked quickly in front of him. The passage was dark, and there was no light in front of him. But before long, his eyes suddenly opened up.

A huge and complete piece of fluorite was hanging above the room at the end of the passage. The smell of steel rust came to his face. Even Joshua narrowed his eyes slightly. After he got used to it, he opened his eyes and observed the room carefully.

"What's this..."

Asked suspiciously, Joshua looked at the room again.

In the basement darkroom under the church in the cemetery, there are countless weapons on the ground. Among them are knives, guns, swords, axes, even flail and cross hammers. But one thing is the same: they are very old, with countless traces of rust on their bodies.

Among hundreds of weapons on the verge of decay, Joshua felt that this was a tomb, a tomb of weapons, but somehow, two weapons attracted his attention.

A huge sword, and a huge axe
