In the end, Ezio got the answer he wanted to know, but left filled with uneasiness about the prospect.
But before leaving, he accepted the mark of the three-feathered bird with a black background and a gold edge from the ancient Fasnas, and officially became a member of the Turtle Dove Alliance, an ally that the dark elf Maier had high hopes for. He also received a mission, or a mission.
suggestion.
If you are worried about the demon alliance coming from the abyss, then lead the brothers in the Brotherhood who are willing to go together to help. However, in addition to fighting hard, Ezio also needs to try to gain a voice among the alliance.
In peacetime, if you want to gain power in the army, you rely on qualifications, blood, money, and backers. Even an unlearned bastard can still rise to the top as long as someone is willing to support him and his family background is strong enough.
But in times of war, ability and luck are the ways to gain power.
No one wants to follow a commander who is good at losing battles and will abandon the lives of his subordinates at any time. No one will trust a villain who can turn around and run away at any time, or stab him in the back for his own survival.
As for the unlucky ones who were unlucky, they have long been buried in the soil, or were picked up by wild dogs. Even if there is a chance of promotion and wealth, they will not die.
When Ezio is able to gain a certain say in the coalition, then when the World Tree and the Elves are ready to intervene, Ezio can act as a good coordinator from within. This will not prevent the 'preservation of the Gate of the Abyss'
The idea met with overwhelming opposition.
Ezio had to admit that the task assigned by a certain magician was indeed the best choice at hand.
Just like other empires, they also want to intervene in this war that is likely to endanger the entire land. However, except for the Karlsruhe Empire, the other three empires are still looking for the appropriate opportunity to intervene. Rather than intervening recklessly and attracting the Soviet Union,
Protests from the Tang Empire.
The reason why the situation in the Karlsruhe Empire is different is because it is the farthest away and should be the most isolated. But there are too many young people inside who are eager to make meritorious deeds. These people form groups in the name of private armies and prepare to
Across most of the Lost Land, we headed to the Abyss Gate battlefield.
This kind of thing would be unbelievable if placed on the modern Earth where time-travelers once lived. How could any country allow armed forces to 'pass' through their territory?
But in the Lost Land, mercenaries from the Mercenary Guild are rampant. It is not surprising for such an army to pass by my door. Even if some people object, some people accept it. Such an army only needs to follow the path that is accepted.
.
As for the reason for acceptance, it is because this type of army usually does not carry too many supplies with them. They buy and eat along the way. For some poor small countries or lords, they cannot defeat such an army, but they still have the opportunity to make a fortune.
, why not let the other party in.
If the other party really intends to kill people, plunder goods, or even seize territory by force. You must know that these nobles, big and small, also have their lords above them.
The purpose of the vassal is to uphold justice and protect the rights of the vassals. If the people above do not protect the younger brother, who would want to follow such a boss? Even if the passing army robs or occupies the territory of the original lord, it will not
Recognized.
In short, there is still no unified front in the human camp, and now that they are focusing on dealing with demons, Ezio really cannot blame Yggdrasil and the elves for their inaction. As for the magician, he is too lazy to criticize the other party.
Lin Hui took advantage of the occasion where World Tree was present to hand over a seemingly noble and important task to Ezio, but in fact he also had his own selfish motives.
In addition to that thing, someone really needs to do it, that is, he doesn't want the big fat boy in front of him to follow the path of the romantic assassin in his memory.
Although Ezio Auditore of Florence is just a fictional character, sometimes some names are like a cultural mark in some people's ears.
Most people would not use such a name easily, unless the name is the name of a vegetable market in that language system.
Imagine that a parent who is obsessed with Star Wars named his son Han Solo, after Skywalker. Are you sure the child will be envied or ridiculed by his peers during his growth stage? Will he feel inferior or proud when he grows up?
It's fine to be called Clark or Bruce, as these are also common names. But if it's so unlucky, and the last name is Kent or Wayne, it will give people a different feeling.
The same thing is true. When a fat boy was a child, someone would only find it funny when he called Ezio, or it would have a strong sense of bad taste. But when the boy grows up and calls him Ezio, someone will just
I was completely embarrassed. I also felt all kinds of displeasure and criticism towards this kid.
So Lin tried to make the lost Ezio not follow the path of the Assassins and Brotherhood, but to find his own path.
Otherwise, this big fat guy got someone's drawing from nowhere and dressed up in that classic costume. It was really embarrassing, so embarrassing that someone wanted to dig a hole and bury himself.
.
Apart from Ezio's disposal, Lin is certainly not someone who just leaves things to others and then ignores them. According to the agreement with the World Trees, the crisis at the Gate of the Abyss can barely be classified as part of the Ninth Power Plan.
variables generated.
Since there is a relationship, then someone has a responsibility. At least find out how the guardian of the Abyss Gate was born and put an end to the whole thing.
Because if there is no guardian for this wide open door of the abyss, it is like there is no water control valve at the end of the water pipe. People can only choose to completely block the water pipe to avoid flooding and reduce the waste of water resources.
That is to say, if they cannot find a way to give birth to a guardian, or if they find a qualified guardian, then Midi and World Tree may also change their stance and choose to completely close the ninth abyss door and allow the demons to invade.
Definitely a bad idea.
So as soon as he learned that the Gate of the Abyss had appeared and the demonic invasion had begun, Lin began to study the 'guardians' related to the Gate of the Abyss. He even approached the only two guardians he was familiar with, the Gwana Empire.
The Moth King Jie Anmos of the Southern Cat Forest, and the Abyss Dragon God of Dragon Island.
More time is spent on the large library surrounded by the holy city of Estali.
There was not much news about the Guardians on the forum. Lin relied on the background search of the forum index, and it only took him half a day to classify all the Guardian information on the forum into the forgettable range. The things mentioned on the forum,
Not as much as he knows.
But the Great Library is different. It contains all the knowledge written in words and pictures from ancient times to the present. It has been preserved through the efforts of generations of bookkeepers.
The only trouble is that if you want to find records related to something or something, you can only rely on searching... The best case is that a wise man who has read through it remembers seeing relevant records in a certain book.
, said it directly.
Although the big library has classifications, in a world like Mystery where the only scientific method is the exhaustive method, it is better to expect a library god who is inquisitive than to expect the library to have a scientific indexing system.
It is a pity that there is no such god, and Lin has no friends to ask, so he can only rely on reading books on his own. As for the original lich at home, it is okay to ask her about the ancient secrets of undead magic. The guardian follows
Forget about the Gate of the Abyss.
When she was in power, the demons were trembling and did not dare to step outside the realm. So Fen had no need to target the abyss, so naturally she did not have a deep understanding of this aspect.
Fortunately, today's reading skills are no longer at the level of reading ten lines at a glance. Instead, they can read the contents of a book by quickly scanning the pages, and then convert it into digital text and record it on the forum.
So Lin went from bookcase to bookcase, looking for a few words about the Guardians. At the same time, he also shouldered the task of digitizing the knowledge retained in the large library.
Although the latter came secretly, no one agreed with him to do so. But there is no guarantee that what I saw today may be useful tomorrow, so Lin still included it. In fact, this is probably due to the onset of a certain person's collection habit.
.
While consulting the data in the Great Library, Lin also did not forget to find out the locations of the remaining six fixed abyss gates. This part would be much easier with the help of the World Trees.
The details are almost the same as what was said before. With the help of World Tree, who has mastered the earth's veins, it is too easy to find abnormal places with the aura of the abyss in the mysterious land.
Although there were more than six places found, it took another half a day to determine the locations of the remaining six abyss doors by cooperating with someone's flash technique to check them one by one.
Other places are the secret strongholds of some devil worshipers. Or the devils are directly lurking among the noble groups in the Lost Land, and in order to maintain their vital signs, they have secretly set up living sacrifice sites.
Lin basically ignores these parts. He is not a messenger of justice, and he does not know the cause and effect of the matter, so rash intervention may not necessarily bring good results.
There are still several places that are in the early stages of the Gate of the Abyss, which is almost the same situation that Lin encountered when he was in the Tower of the Great Sage. Although the breath of the Abyss flows out from the cracks in the space, the devil has not yet been able to pass through.
In the eyes of most magicians, this primary stage of the Gate of the Abyss is already in an irreversible state, and its opening is inevitable. This was also the biggest reason why I would be simply scared off at that time and escape from the Tower of the Great Sage.
.
A magician who is accustomed to fighting uncivilized goblins cannot accept that his opponent jumps to the demon level in an instant. It is like playing an online game and just opening a new account and then running to the high-level area to die.
It's just that if you die in the game, you can play it again, but real life is gone if you die. So I didn't dare to gamble at that time.
But seeing it now, Lin could only sigh with emotion, and then casually closed the abyss door that showed signs of opening from the other side of the land. Compared with sewing and repairing it with a needle and thread, it would not be much more difficult for Lin to repair the space cracks now.
.
Not to mention it was formed naturally. It has not been discovered by the humans in the Lost Land or the demons in the abyss, and it is in an early stage of infancy.
Even if a demon on the other side discovers it and starts to actively expand it, Lin can still find a way to block it. He can also send the demon on the other side to enter the state of resurrecting in place.
The reason why he did this was just because the door to the abyss that was now wide open had not yet been dealt with. Lin did not want to face the dilemma of the second and third doors opening at the same time, and the demon launching multiple attacks.
Even if these doors are fully opened, they may become the key to the future World Tree's impact on the tenth and eleventh levels. The same situation will definitely appear again in the future, but one door is enough to deal with right now.
