Vol 5 Chapter 152

Name:The Amber Sword Author:Fei Yan
Freya blinked and woke up from the darkness. The candles on the table didn't know when they had burned out, and the bedroom was dark. She was confused for a moment before she remembered what happened before. The slate that Brando gave her suddenly cracked, and a golden circular disc flew out of it. A light hit the forehead from the disc. Is this a dream? Freya looked subconsciously at the table, and Huo Ran found that the disc that had lost its luster was lying quietly among a pile of stone fragments, and the moonlight outside the window was shining on it, exuding a cold clearness. Freya noticed that there was a moon in the sky outside the window, but she did n’t know what had happened before, she thought it was an eclipse, but she fell asleep at night, which made her a little bit be surprised.

Is everything that happened before true? When she subconsciously went to the dream, she got up suddenly. She suddenly found that there was some strange and strange knowledge in her mind. This knowledge seemed to be innate. Although some of it was rusty, it was like In the past, she learned this knowledge systematically, but it was just rustiness that had not been used for a long time, instead of the kind of textual information that was memorized in her brain, as if it was a little bit As soon as she recalled, the knowledge became clear. She even had the illusion that as long as she took the opportunity to practice a few times, she could master the knowledge.

Most of the knowledge in her mind was about combat skills, as if she had been trained to be an elite warrior. These warriors belonged to an organization called the Goddess of War (or Valkyrie Guard). But apart from that, there is nothing extra in this memory. In addition to all kinds of combat skills, the rest is the use of various weapons and equipment, and then she has one more in her head. A lot of superfluous things, those are the information of monsters. But she didn't say that she had seen these monsters, she didn't even hear them.

What a mess of warriors, assaulters, blade worms, dream voyagers ... most of them don't sound like monsters. More like a military rank, Freya found that these things have one thing in common. Most of the subsequent labels for them are ‘energy’, and the remaining few are evening twilight species, crystal clusters, and tapeworms. Crystal Cluster, Freya knows it. Brando often mentions this creature, the Neng tribe. She feels that she has heard it everywhere, and has some faint impressions. There was a sensation in her heart, as if she had fought with these creatures at some point in the past, but she knew that this sensation was not a true memory, but from these inherited knowledge.

In her memory, Valkyrie is a warrior of Tiamat, the dragon of war. They have a special ability to summon ancient weapons through the dragon of war to be projected on the earth. Freya reaches out her hand and says: "hercules "This weird spell seemed to suddenly come to her mind. A white brilliance descended from mid-air and fell directly through the roof to her hands. Countless tiny light particles gathered in her hand and condensed into a long knife. The knife was very strange. Its blade seemed to be made of light, but it did not diverge, nor was it tied together. Instead, it formed a piece like a crystal. shape. It also has a certain degree of curvature. Above the guard of the long knife, four metal plates are folded back to block the position of the long knife handle and the hand.

The overall style of this knife is completely different from the artistic style on the mainland, and the whole knife does not have any relief patterns. Nor can you see the common heraldic decorations such as ivy, dragons, or sun thorns, which gives a simple and powerful feeling. "This is the ancient weapon?" Freya had never seen such a long knife, but she also felt that it was very beautiful.

She raised the knife and glanced at her, only to find that there was another person in her room, which surprised her a lot. She put on a stance of fighting, but found that she stood silently in the darkness. There was the Emerald Knight, whose whole body was shrouded in armor. Freya stunned slightly: "Mr. Knight, why are you here?" The latter is the guardian spirit of Lionheart Sword, and has been following her since she got the Lionheart Sword, but the other party rarely appears in In sight, even in battle, she would not help her, as if she was just to protect the sword. Since these days, she often does not see the knight, and almost forgets the existence of the opponent.

However, the other party broke into her room so quietly, still annoyed her. Since being a knight, wouldn't it be impolite to break into the lady's room without permission?

But today the emerald knight is obviously a little different. He raised his head, and the hollow soul fire under the helmet was burning quietly. He glanced at Freya, then turned around and pushed the door to leave.

The Emerald Knight did not speak, but Freya felt a faint feeling in his heart: he was leaving.

The night wind blew across the mountains of Tonigel.

Fir made a rustling sound, as if writing a song, chanting the unknown future.

...

On the first day of the autumn twilight, the residents of Vaund saw a most unusual solar eclipse that afternoon. Of course, most people thought it was only a solar eclipse, because in less than a quarter of an hour Within time, the sun and sky reappear. But in many areas, such as Luzer, Baishan south of Saint-Osor, the eastern part of the Great Glacier, parts of the ten cities, dark forests in the south of Eruin, and parts of the Saint-White Plain, there is no such thing Raised again.

Large-scale riots quickly broke out in these places, and within this week they became completely unordered areas. In these areas lacking light, food and even water, political entities quickly died out. After the order disappeared, the original The civilization was replaced by barbarism, and the residents became robbers, which led to a large number of refugees migrating outwards. But soon, in these dark areas, even the robbers could not survive, and the refugees poured out and flooded into those There are bright areas.

But the refugee wave hasn't traveled further, so in most areas people don't know what happened.

A floating city floats above the sea of ​​stars, and Lataki is the name of the city. It is a relatively famous floating city among the silver city-states. It stays in the ocean outside of the star gather on weekdays and is responsible for monitoring Baishan The movement of monsters on the Eastern Great Plains. But at this time. This city known as the 'Dark Eye' is quietly suspended in the darkness. The wizards used magic to illuminate various lights and gathered on a brightly lit square in the center of the city. Wizards wearing various robes, but they have one thing in common is that there are at least seven silver piping on the robes, and those without more than seven lines. They all stood on the ground of the square. Looking at it from a distance, the black was pressing.

In Buga, wizards call wizards who can cast spells below the fifth ring as apprentices, and those who can cast five or more rings are called quasi-wizards. For the big wizard. But within this silver city-state, you are either a great wizard or an apprentice, or you have only become a great wizard. Only then can you break away from your apprenticeship. After leaving the apprenticeship, you can fly freely in the city, so there is so much black on the ground.

People who do not understand Buga may think that this is the so-called Silver Alliance, but in fact, most of these so-called 'apprentices' on the ground are also quasi-wizards and can only cast spells below the fifth ring. wizard. It is really rare here, it may not be harder to find than those top wizards. Only those children who are less than ten years old and have poor wizard qualifications are possible.

In Buga, if you can't cast the five-ring spell after fifteen, you are not a problem of poor qualifications, but a freak.

This is the strength of the silver people.

In fact, purely in terms of combat effectiveness, the gap between the silver generation and the gold generation is not large, only in the era of the twilight war. The gold race is the real fighting race, and most of the silver people rarely go directly to the battlefield. For example, the Dragon tribe, the best among the Golden tribe, is far superior to Buga's artisan wizards in terms of individual strength, but the dragons are rare. Even in the most prosperous era of the golden generation, it was the least populous ethnic group of gold. To speak alone, ordinary members of the dragon are naturally the average level among crushing artisan wizards, but if it is from the level of the entire ethnicity Judging from this, the Bugatians are not necessarily afraid of the Dragons.

However, these are the two races. In the days when the gods were still alive, the Buchi ancestors Ochidu scholars were Babel's librarians, responsible for organizing and collecting the knowledge and inheritance of civilization, while the Dragons were pure Warriors, charging on the front line of fighting against dusk, the division of labor between the two is clear.

This is also the biggest difference between silver and gold.

It's only been for millennia that since the end of the Battle of the Holy Ones that the Bugatians have withdrawn from the continent, they have never shown their power in Warnd. They rarely intervene in disputes, let alone participate in a war. This is the case, even if Her Majesty the Queen of the Cruz Empire claimed the restoration of the Miner dynasty not long ago, they were nothing more than an extraordinary support for Brando's fleet, and even more No one sends more than half. Even the fleet itself was only part of their original deal with Tonigel. The Bugatians were simply adding something extra, not even helping.

But at this moment, these wizards are more serious than ever.

A wizard in a red robe was speaking in mid-air, his voice was rolling like a thunder, and shrouded the whole city: "According to our investigation, in 376, after the magic tide surged at noon on the first day of autumn twilight, Most of the meteor debris that fell to the ground from the whole of Warnd was the part of the knowledge and inheritance that was claimed to have been lost on the earth after the destruction of the Babel fortress. It is also the most important part of the civilization inheritance of the arbitral tribunal ... Under it is the Saumur crystal. "

In Buga, the Silver Robe Wizard is a wand with a staff of the White Tower. They hold a silver staff, also known as a Silver Staff. They are the guardians of knowledge. They have a high status in the Silver Alliance and are second only to the Wizards of the Council. wizard. The other most common are wizards in white robes and gray robes, where white robe wizards are ordinary artisan wizards, and gray robe wizards usually come from the silver hastily battle sequence, most of which are elemental. The remaining black, red, and blue three-colored robes are the smallest and most special three types of wizards.

The Blue Robe Wizard is unique to Wing Lion City. It is the personal guard of Rosadel among the twelve wizard leaders of the Silver Alliance. Rosadel himself specializes in rune magic, so the Blue Robe Mage is also the strongest among the Bugatians. Rune Mage. The black robe wizards usually come from the Retreat of the Silver Alliance. Most of the members of this organization are undead wizards, warlocks who practice psychic and array spells. Of course, these people have high self-esteem, and generally look down on the countrybilles from Madala. .

The Red Robe Wizards, also known as the Insights, are from the Tower of All Things. They are the top group of astrologists in the entire Warnd. They are naturally proficient in astrology, but the most outstanding of them is the leader of the Red Robe Wizard. At the same time, he is also the city owner of Lataki. He has an artifact named Sunspot, which is the shape of a unique dark eye. Therefore, it is called the dark eye by the world. It is precisely the name of Lataki. the reason.

Vladimir is still his well-known image of a bald head appearing over the square, with a thick beard, and a black symbol on his forehead is the mark left by the dark eye. He overlooked the entire square in mid-air and paused for a moment before continuing: "It is well known that the Bugatians are descendants of the Okidu scholars. It is our job to collect and manage knowledge on the earth. Books of the Babel fortress. The precious knowledge in the museum was once the most important wealth of wizards, so we have a responsibility to take them back and keep them safe. "

There was silence in the square.

But Vladimir didn't care, and he didn't need the answers of these people. At his height, he only needed the opinions of the twelve people.

To be precise, there are three. The Silver Alliance is actually not as tightly organized as people think. As early as after the second jihad, the wizards of the Silver Alliance were divided into three because of disagreement. Among them, the silver led by William The robe shaman also mastered the two most important cities of Orthodox Kanajic and Baita, and he called himself the Mithril Society. The second is the Hermitage. The base of the Black Robe Wizard is Yuki. They keep the floating city above the big glacier. Although they are secretive, they are most enthusiastic about things on the mainland. However, these Black Robe Wizards are not keen on Fighting for power and gaining profits on the continent, but keen to destroy the power of chaos, in fact they are the greatest opponent of the return of all things and the shepherd.

The last is the so-called Red and Blue Alliance, also known as the Sasard Alliance. In fact, it is the two-city alliance between Rosard and Vladimir. Because these two floating cities are located above the Sasard area, Because of its name, this alliance has the weakest strength in the Silver League, so its reputation is not obvious, but it has great resentment against the Mithril Institute under William's control. Vladimir himself has long been arrogant to the status of Baita. He has always been It is argued that the pagoda's guardian mage should be a more insightful astrologer, not a rule wizard. Although in the Silver Alliance, the rule wizard is often called a scholar.

However, Vladimir also knew that among the twelve wizard leaders, William ranked first, Turaman ranked fourth, and his position was eighth. Rosard was even worse than him. To challenge the Mithril Institute's strength is really whimsical. The reason why he beat the white pagoda is because of its sacred status among the wizards. The white pagoda of Buga was built after imitating the tower of the law in the Five Realms of Elements. Each layer in the white pagoda is full. It is the largest and most proud library of Bugatians, with documents and books from all over Warnd. What is most important to a wizard? Nature is knowledge. As a symbol of knowledge, Baita has always been regarded as a holy place for wizards.

But now he obviously has a better choice.

The Bugatians are descendants of the scholars of Okidu. The Okidu scholars were once tower guards of Babel. At that time, they had the knowledge and heritage of all civilizations, countless continents, gold ethnicity, silver The people, even the people of God and the knowledge of God, are stored in that tower of heaven. At that time, Babel was the center of civilization and a symbol of order. If he could recover this knowledge one day, Baita would be worthless.

Vladimir waited silently in mid-air, the red robe automatically without wind.

Soon, he heard a voice coming from the void.
