Perhaps sensing the look in Woody's eyes, Lani also broke away from her loneliness and asked as if she had nothing to say.
"What did you think of?"
Obviously, the subtext is for him to share it.
Woody looked at Lani who was the first to speak. He did not speak immediately, but began to think and organize his words in his heart. He wanted to win the trust of the star princesses in front of him to the maximum extent. Speaking is also an art.
So, after a while, Lani heard a leisurely sigh.
"I just have a guess!" (Abandon all lie-detection spells!)
"What guess?" Lani couldn't help but asked curiously.
The adventurer in front of her gave her enough surprise and trust, and she felt particularly comfortable chatting with him.
Except for the gauntlet just now, but the gauntlet couldn't blame him. It was more because he was nostalgic for the past.
"When I was in Palermo, I had a friend..."
Woody began to follow Angelina's line and began to tell in detail the story between her and her younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage, and then extended the relationship between the mysterious monk who changed her destiny.
Both Lani and Cecil listened very seriously. Perhaps it was because they were women. They had a great impression of the girl with long burgundy hair who was self-improving and indomitable in Woody's words. After hearing her
She couldn't help but frown when her left hand was bitten off by a megalodon. She couldn't help but feel relieved and relieved when she heard that Woody had cured her. However, after hearing that her fate was grim, she decided to go to the Underdark again.
, even when they brought their younger brothers and sisters out, they couldn't help but praise her. All in all, Angelina's story attracted them.
Similarly, the mysterious monk who taught her the monk skills also attracted their attention.
"You know him?"
"Yes, he should not be from our plane. What she studies is not the skill of the Ascetic Temple and the Mountain Temple."
"From what Angelina practiced, I think it was the famous Dragon Temple in the Far East of the main material plane."
Regarding Woody's judgment, Cecil, who doesn't know much about the outside world, naturally takes what he hears. But for Lani, who has a certain understanding of the star world and other planes, his knowledge of planes is basically the same as that of others.
Everything she knew was correct, including the name of the main material plane, as well as the names of various forces and places active on it, which were all accurate, which also increased Woody's trust in his words.
But the only question is, as a native resident of Asenland, how does he know this knowledge from outside the plane.
But again, the importance of organizational language is reflected earlier.
Before Lani and others could take the initiative to ask, Woody blamed all the knowledge related to the plane on the culprit that made him look like this.
——"Demon Hunter."
"This knowledge is all what I learned before I became this professional."
Woody elegantly pointed to his unique golden pupils and the sigil runes that appeared on the back of his hands after taking off his iron gauntlets. There was nothing to hide about this.
At this time, they suddenly discovered that the seemingly ordinary adventurer in front of them was not a pure warrior or ranger, but a magic swordsman with some magical power.
Mystery also shrouded him, but in this regard, their desire to pursue and inquire directly dropped to the freezing point.
After all, no matter which material plane you are in, it is impolite to ask about career advancements or procedures that you don't understand. Woody's active hug also completely cut off their knowledge of the source of his knowledge of the plane, and just now
What he said, even if the lie detection array is turned on at all times, it cannot be identified as a lie. After all, what he said is true, but in terms of time, it was in the previous life...
After seeing that both Lani and Cecil accepted his knowledge about the Dragon Monk, Woody began to slowly explain the legends about the Far East, which involved the ancient evil that could destroy the world, and the
There are warrior monks and their temples who have guarded the place for generations for the sake of their oaths and the people.
Once the concept of ancient evil things is poured into their minds, no matter how stupid Lani and Cecil are, they will subconsciously think of the purpose of the monks who appeared in Asenland. After all, most monks in the Far East have missions.
In other words, the oath to abide by is to contain and suppress all those monsters that should sleep for eternity and cannot be eliminated.
"You mean..." Cecil couldn't help but said.
"Yes, when I found out that I was infected, I suspected that what the cult worshiped was probably not an evil god, but an indescribable thing from ancient times. The rituals they held were not like communication, but more like
It's the calling... they... are calling for His coming."
Woody's long-awaited role finally came into play. The interweaving of the stories and speculations successfully made everyone present, including the bronze dragon, feel their hearts sinking. Lani was even a little palpitated. Perhaps Cecil and Duny could only learn from
She understood the power of ancient evil things in just a few words, but as a legendary mage, she understood even more clearly that behind the four words "ancient evil things", there was a heavy price of destruction in countless material planes.
If it is true, then even if she eliminates all the cultists in Navia, it seems to be in vain in the end.
After realizing this problem, Lani's heart began to change silently. Perhaps she should seriously investigate the cult he mentioned. If it is really an ancient evil, then...
Not to mention what is going on in Lani's heart now, Woody is finally relieved now. He has done everything he should say and do. Even if the red comet attached to the corrupted mother tree in the end still arrives as scheduled, then
He wouldn't regret it at all. After all, he worked hard and struggled for this. On the way to fight against fate, he did not bow his head...
"Thank you, then this time..." Cecil seemed to have realized something and asked naturally.
"I am going to the Northland to look for traces of the astral whales."
Woody did not hide anything in this regard, because he originally wanted to ask, as the Queen of the North, Lani must know some abnormal movements in the territory. Even if she does not know the exact location of the Astral Whale, she can still give him some help.
Convenient.
"What are you looking for astral whales for? Leave this plane?"
Lani asked with some interest, obviously she knew the purpose of the Astral Whale and understood its function.
"Well, I want to leave here. Asenland is too small. I want to see a wider world."
These are Woody's inner words. Perhaps part of them are due to the corruption of the mother tree, but most of them are still the desire for a wider world outside. The desire for adventure and exploration supports him to continue exploring the world he has experienced in his previous life.
.
"Well, I don't know."
After a while, Lani finally said what Woody had been prepared for, but the next sentence made him feel like he was struck by lightning.
Because the words of this legendary mage are very simple.
"But, which world are you going to?"
"Komilan, Ronald, or the main material plane Terra, I have their coordinates. If you want to leave, I can help you..."
"……."
Woody didn't react for a moment, but he soon realized that, apart from the legendary monk and the astral whale, his third way to escape Ashenrant appeared!
However, he did not think that a legendary mage would help him for no reason. Even if he had just helped Cecil kill the Abyss Demonic Ape and helped the guards of the Furious Winter Merchant Group to resist the monster army, in the final analysis, at this level,
The battle and assistance cannot make the legendary mage willing to let him teleport for free, not to mention that his ultimate goal is to take Weilanduo and the others away from this plane. If he leaves alone, he will come back in the end.
"So, what's the price?"
After being silent for a while, the temptation to teleport away from this plane was still too great. Woody could not firmly refuse, so he asked about the price.
"..."
Lani was not surprised when she heard this. Instead, she glanced at Woody. This was a smart person's answer. In this world, everything is an exchange of equal value. When the cost of plane teleportation far exceeds what he paid,
At this time, the price paid often becomes the standard of measurement.
"You don't have to mention this for now, I haven't thought about it yet, but if you want to leave, you can come to me in Komilan."
Lani's face was particularly relaxed, but Woody looked at her with a heavy heart. When she didn't mention the price, it was obvious that she didn't have anything worthy of her covetousness. To put it simply, the person he is now is not enough.
She didn't deserve to pay the price, because there was nothing in him worthy of making her heart move.
"I see!"
Woody nodded. He could not afford the price for the time being, but it was not without gain. If the Astral Whale was not found, at least the third way would be clear. If his strength improved in the future, as long as she needed
Myself, the teleportation seems to have become a matter of course.
After all, the next few years in the Northland do not seem to be peaceful.
"The scourge of the frost giants...the awakening of the ancient gods...the invasion of the regional gate...the return of the gray dwarves...the establishment of the White Dragon Kingdom..."
If you complete whatever you want, you can probably repay this favor!
Woody thought about it carefully. His future had slightly changed because of meeting Lani, but the general direction remained the same, such as finding the astral whale, and improving his own strength along the way to seize everything.
Opportunity to gain experience points and some magical items that are useful to you.
"By the way, let this be used as a reward for you to tell us about the ancient evil things!"
Just when Woody began to think seriously about his future plans, Lani's cool and majestic yet soft voice sounded again, causing him to subconsciously look up at the Princess of the Stars, who was only a few steps away from the top of the bell tower.
The original crossed gesture of her fingertips also disappeared, and instead she stretched out her fair and slender right hand towards him. On the soft and shiny palm, there was a simple and exquisite square ring, with the following words engraved on the ring:
Ancient Kalia, Woody could barely make out a few bytes.
"Justice...humility..."
Even with the knowledge from his previous life, Woody found that he still judged the effect of this ring based on its appearance.
But seeing that Lani had already delivered the ring to his door, he naturally had no reason to refuse, so he accepted it directly and then scanned the data.
In an instant, as a torrent passed by, a row of extremely neat data was quickly displayed in his retina.
--"virtue."
——"Item Level: Ancient"
——"Item description: It is made by gathering eight kinds of beliefs and combining them with the rarest metal Silver Soul Steel. After wearing it, you can rely on the owner's will and faith to create the desired appearance of the weapon. When the faith stored inside is used up,
The soul weapon will disappear, and the strength and ability of the weapon will be gradually unlocked with the completion of the ancient ritual."
——"Equipment requirements: Good camp, any kind of virtue."
——"Ancient ritual: (0/3)."
——"Journey of Goodness: The holder must obtain the recognition of your virtue from no less than 10 people in a completely unfamiliar town within 24 hours. Among these 10 people, they must be good people and obtain the expertise: Chongshan
"granted by the author"
——"Disaster of evil: The holder must stop those who are doing evil things and punish them. The professional level of the person who is doing evil things cannot be lower than the holder's level. Obtain expertise: Oath of Heaven Mountain"
——"The name of good and evil: After arriving in the legend, the holder must let his virtues be praised among 1,000 good creatures within one year, and at the same time gain the hostile eyes of 1,000 evil people, so that they can
Become aware of your presence. Gain feat: Virtue Shape"
——"Legendary ability: (******) has not been unlocked."
&……
Ancient weapons...
Woody was stunned when he saw the data. No wonder he had never seen it before and couldn't tell it apart. It turned out to be this unique weapon.
In Athenrant, or the entire multiverse, there are also differences among strange objects, from the lowest replicable +1 magic weapon to the dexterous agate statue with various magics. These are all replicable and recreatable.
Yes, this is true even for legends. In the eyes of most people, only the artifacts containing divinity in legends cannot be copied. They are unique, created by gods and cannot be cast by mortals.
But Woody understands that in addition to items other than artifact level, there is another item that is unreplicable and powerful.
That is an ancient weapon.
It is an item that cannot be created under ordinary rules. In addition to the weapon itself, it also seals the legend of the former holder. The soul of the holder is entangled in it, and the ability of the ancient weapon will follow the holder.
It rises with the level, but this ability must complete the ritual on the ancient weapon before it can be fully mastered and inherited.
Woody looked carefully at the ring in front of him, and sure enough, he saw a familiar pattern on the inner ring of the ring.
Holy Sword Star.
This is...the brand on the Morning Star Gauntlet.
It is also the mark of the Knights of the Kingdom of Kallia...
