Chapter 771

The Holy Sword of Ashes is more than 1.6 meters long. It is a standard two-handed sword, but it only has one edge. It is not so much a sword as it is a knife.

In the world of Arranus, the concept of "knife" does not exist in most languages.

This weapon is generally called a single-edged sword.

However, such a large single-edged sword is very rare. Its blade is as wide as two palms side by side, and its back is about four centimeters thick. , revealing a fierce feeling.

The most striking thing about the whole weapon is that there is a semi-circular notch on the back of the knife near the tip.

There is a ball of light suspended in the notch.

The core of the light is a round piece of metal, carved into the shape of a human skull, emitting a dark green evil light, and the blade is also stained with a layer of dark green, only the row of runes carved in the middle remains dim golden, which is the Holy Spirit. light color.

Sanguinius grasped the ancient sword hilt made of blood-colored metal.

The weight of this giant sword is about two thousand pounds, and the average person can't swing it at all. Even the legendary superhuman is very difficult to use, but for Sanguinius, who has fifteen levels of strength, it is like holding a wooden stick. So easy, even a little light.

However, Sanguinius does not pursue the ultimate power like the main body Rennes. The battle is mainly based on the power of holy blood and magic, and this weight is just right.

Start with the giant sword and infuse it with the power of the holy blood.

hum!

The Ember Holy Sword trembled violently, resisting the power of the Holy Blood as if it had self-awareness, the light on the back of the sword flickered rapidly, and a strange energy invaded the hand holding the sword in turn, spreading up along the arm, trying to infect the whole body Even let the soul fall.

Sanguinius raised his eyebrows, not surprised.

The sentence before Mogra's soul dissipated, "purify it", shows that the Holy Sword of Ashes was not what it was originally, and it was probably desecrated by the power of death.

The fusion of the power of holy light and the power of death is simply unheard of.

However, this is just a weapon after all, even if it is legendary, it is impossible to resist a power that is close to a demigod.

No matter how much the Ember Holy Sword vibrated, it couldn't break free from Sanguinius's hand.

The evil energy invaded the elbow and was intercepted, and the huge power of the holy blood easily suppressed it and dispelled its infection.

Sanguinius took control of the giant sword, opened the phone library, searched for information on "Holy Sword of Ashes", and immediately found hundreds of results.

He quickly read the information in a few minutes, and his face showed a sudden look.

Sure enough, the holy sword of ashes has a lot of origins.

It was born in the dark millennium period. It was originally forged by a mortal swordsmith, but during the casting process, the sun god Gion helped to improve its quality and power, turning it into a legendary weapon, and then bestowing it on his followers. An early Sun Knight.

Holding the Holy Sword of Ashes, the Sun Knight, together with four other Sun Knights, created the first country in human history. It was called the "Ramon Kingdom" at first, and later developed into the "Ramon Empire", one of the three major human empires.

The year in which the Kingdom of Ramon was established was designated as the first year of the Fourth Era.

However, the first owner of the Holy Sword of Ashes, the Sun Knight, had not been promoted to the holy rank, and died at the hands of demons shortly after the founding of the country.

The holy sword of ashes was brought back by his comrades in arms and handed over to the Church of the Sun. Since then, it has become the inherited weapon of the Church of the Sun. It will only be taken out of the treasury at critical times and temporarily handed over to the most devout and powerful believers of the Sun God. , must be returned afterwards.

Historically, believers who once held the Holy Sword of Ashes were almost all knights of grace.

Until more than seven hundred years ago.

Erzaz, the prince of the Ramon Empire, was born noble, with a modest personality, and was already a knight of grace before he was a hundred years old. After being the perfect heir for more than three hundred years, his soul fell without warning and turned to death. The lord of spirits has become the feared lord of death.

He led the Scourge Legion he created to fight back to the Ramon Empire, killed his father with his own hands, and slaughtered countless people who once loved him.

At that time, the Church of the Sun was also caught off guard.

At a critical juncture, the Church bestowed the Holy Sword of Ashes on Mogra, the divine knight, to destroy the death lord, but Mogra never returned. Later, the death lord was finally repelled, and the Scourge was also severely damaged, and had to lie dormant on the Canod Ice Field for hundreds of years, but the Church of the Sun lost the Holy Sword of Ashes.

For hundreds of years, the Church of the Sun has been making promises that whoever retrieves the Holy Sword of Ashes will receive countless rewards.

Fief, title, official position and wealth, these are not a problem.

Even, the Church of the Sun has given a quota of Templars. All Templars are candidates for the Knights of Divine Grace. They will provide unlimited resources and wealth, train them with all their strength, and help them break through the holy rank.

Even if you only provide clues to the Holy Sword of Ashes, you can get a large bounty.

This bounty made countless people crazy. Back then, there was an upsurge in searching for the Holy Sword of Ashes. Not only the Sun Knight, but also extraordinary people from outside the Ramon Empire joined in. The craze went on for decades, but to no avail.

So far no one has claimed the bounty from the Church of the Sun.

There is a book in the mobile phone library, and many people speculate that the Ash Sword fell into the hands of the Scourge.

But the Scourge is entrenched on the Karnold Icefield in the New World, and the death lord's monstrous reputation makes people dare not approach the Icecrown Fortress at all.

More than seven hundred years later, the Holy Sword of Ashes has become a true legend.

Only people from several human countries ruled by the Ramon Empire and the Church of the Sun still remember this weapon. Every year, some young and passionate Sun Knights set foot on the New World to find the Holy Sword of Ashes for fame, faith or other reasons. Good luck Some of them gained experience and growth, while those with bad luck died unexpectedly and never returned home.

Sanguinius couldn't help sighing as he looked at the giant sword in his hand.

The book's guess was right.

The Holy Sword of Ashes did fall into the hands of the Scourge, and even Mogra was transformed into a Knight of the Apocalypse!

No one has discovered this truth for hundreds of years, obviously because the rote lord deliberately concealed it to prevent Mogra from easily appearing in front of the living.

All undead creatures are minions of the lord of the dead, and the soul and body are under double control, forming an absolutely closed system. A force composed entirely of dead people is completely different from a kingdom or organization of living people. This is a restricted area of ​​information congestion.

No living person can penetrate the Scourge with influence and tentacles, and can't get any news.

So the Church of the Sun could not get any clues.

This time, Mogra left Icecrown Fortress with the Holy Sword of Ashes, and stationed in the floating city to supervise Kolstadt. The death lord must not have expected an accident.

A negligence caused the Ashes Holy Sword to change hands.

Of course, Sanguinius would not return the Holy Sword of Ashes to the Church of the Sun. He didn't like those rewards at all. He liked this weapon very much. Would it be nice to keep it for himself?

However, the holy sword of ashes has been desecrated by the power of death, so it must be purified first!

The all-seeing eye saw through the inside of the giant sword and studied it carefully for a while, Sanguinius probably knew what to do. It's very simple, just break the strange balance between the power of death and the power of holy light in the giant sword, and release all the power of death.

He sensed the holy blood amber, and there were less than a thousand copies of the power of the holy light.

"Should be enough."

Sanguinius tightly grasped the scarlet sword hilt, the halo above his head was glowing, a huge power of holy light emerged, condensed into a nearly liquid state, and sprinkled on the wide blade, like washing with water, constantly washing away the row of mysterious swords. runes.

At the same time, more power of holy light penetrated into the ray of light in the notch on the back of the blade.

Sanguinius also mobilized the power of the holy blood, pouring it in from the hilt.

In an instant, the Ember Holy Sword trembled violently. With a thought in Sanguinius's mind, one after another "Morning Light Technique" was cast, released rapidly at a frequency of three times per second, continuously falling on the sword, washing away the erupting green light step by step.

These dark green lights are the power of death.

The morning light technique is a divine technique unique to the Lord of Dawn. It has the effect of restraining evil, dispelling viruses, plagues and various negative states, and has certain healing and repairing effects.

The holy sword of ashes resisted the baptism of the holy light, constantly erasing the power of death.

It lasted for a few minutes, and the green light dimmed a bit. With the consumption of the power of death, the dark green light on the blade gradually faded, returning to a dark golden color, and the light of the row of mysterious runes in the middle became brighter, bursting into a blazing golden light.

After a while, the last ray of green light was forced to the tip of the knife, leaving only a small piece the size of a finger, still stubbornly resisting.

Sanguinius activated the artifact, and the power of the holy light suddenly increased.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the Ember Holy Sword shook violently, and all the remaining power of death exploded, and the shock wave swept across the surroundings, making Sanguinius almost unable to grasp it.

After the energy subsided, the legendary weapon finally returned to its original appearance.

The overall shape has not changed, but there is no trace of green on the blade, it has become a pure dark gold with a deep luster, and the metal skull in the notch is no longer evil and awe-inspiring, like a burning golden flame, emitting warm sunlight, There is a sense of justice and peace.

The row of runes in the middle of the blade is even more shining, the golden light flows, and contains a huge power of holy light.

This is the true form of the Ember Holy Sword!

Holding it, Sanguinius felt that this weapon was very suitable for him, as if it was tailor-made for him, and he knew the effects of the great sword.

Holding the Ember Holy Sword, the strength is increased by one level.

Casting divine spells or melee elements in battle, as long as it involves the use of the power of the holy light, the power will be doubled directly.

Contained in that metal skull is the "Sun Sacred Flame", which is the unique ability of the sun god Geon. It uses the power of holy light as fuel to generate high-temperature flames to kill enemies, and the damage to evil creatures is even more terrifying. It can burn most of the undead and demons below the holy rank to ashes.

This is the origin of the name of the Holy Sword of Ashes!

Cooperating with the holy fire of the sun, the holy sword of ashes can release "Scorching Sun Slash", which is unparalleled in power.

Renn had seen this move when he fought Mogra, but at that time the Ember Holy Sword was in a state of corruption, and the Fierce Sun Slash became the Evil Spirit Slash.

The last is rising from the ashes.

Integrate a wisp of the holy fire of the sun into the soul and bind it to the holy sword of ashes. If the owner of the weapon is killed, he can be resurrected immediately. The effect is equivalent to the "full resurrection" and restores to the peak state before the battle, but it will consume a lot of the holy fire of the sun. It can only be triggered once every seven days.

The additional abilities of the Holy Sword of Ashes are exactly the same as in the records.

Sanguinius couldn't help admiring.

It is indeed a legendary weapon, no wonder the Church of the Sun values ​​it so much!

It is also a legendary weapon, but the Soul Devouring Blade is just one grade lower than the Ember Holy Sword, which is on the same level as Thor's Hammer.

Of course, Thor's Hammer is still slightly stronger.

For a long time, the world has ranked Thor's Hammer at the top of all legendary items, known as the most powerful weapon under the divine weapon.

Ren also believed in it before, but after possessing Thor's Hammer, he found that this statement is actually quite reluctant. Thor's Hammer is indeed very strong, but it is not absolutely better than other legendary items, at least Master Ogullevi's End of Time is no worse than it.

Thor's Hammer can have such a great reputation, which is related to its legendary story.

Its symbolic significance, its political status, and its previous owners, these factors have created the unparalleled prestige of Thor's Hammer.

All in all, the Holy Sword of Ashes is the top weapon!

Sanguinius admired it for a while, and after deep thought, decided not to bind with the Holy Sword of Ashes.

The holy fire of the sun is Geon's unique ability, it is extremely unwise to integrate it into one's own soul, and it is very likely that Geon will restrain him, or even turn against him and suddenly give himself a backstab. "Rebirth from Ashes" cannot be activated without binding the Holy Sword of Ashes, but other functions do not affect its use.

Anyway, Holy Blood Amber can use "Lay on Hands" four times a day, which can completely replace Rebirth from Ashes and is safer.

With the current strength, it is unlikely that he can push himself to the point where he has used up four lay on hands spells.

Not to mention the "Absolute Holy Shield".

Sanguinius put away the holy sword of ashes, glanced at the holy blood amber, and Ren converted the electricity into the power of holy light again, and slowly rose.

Nine blood knights walked into the hall and continued to improve their strength to hit the legendary high-level.

In the floating city.

Ren multitasking, feeling the state of Sanguinius at the same time, while paying attention to the progress of the Knights of the Holy Lance in eliminating the undead.

Suddenly, his mind jumped into a room on the middle floor.

Ren is very familiar with this monotonous room. The brain-splitting chip has been observed here countless times. With a slight movement of his mind, an undead was teleported in front of him. She was wearing jet-black rune light armor, her head was covered by a hood, a layer of smoke covered her face, and only a pair of scarlet eyes could be seen.

It was General Sanavia!

She hid in the army of undead after the jump of the floating city was forcibly suspended. Renn took control of the floating city, secretly teleported her to the lower level, and kept her alone in a secret room until now.

For the past half a day, Sanavia waited quietly in that secret room.

She doesn't know the current specific situation of Floating Void City. She only knows that Korsted is dead. Floating Void City has made a leap and landed in an unknown place, but she can feel that the brain splitting chip is still on her body. Watching myself.

At this moment, Sanavia returned to her room, and when she saw Ren, her scarlet eyes fluctuated, and her eyes were full of doubt and curiosity.

"General Sanavia."

Ren smiled warmly at her, "Let me introduce myself, I am Ren Augustus, a member of the Orienth Empire, and the speaker of Wezeland Floating Void City."
