Chapter 171 The second blessing, the language of the stars
It was a little quiet in the hall, and you could hear a needle drop.
The blood-colored pattern scar on Fang Plover's arm was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The lizard man elder then let go of his hand and glanced at him coldly. That indifferent look and eyes as narrow as agate stones made Fang Plover unable to help but
My heart was horrified.
"This is dark forbidden knowledge, the holder of the Glory of Cang," it opened its mouth and replied in a low voice: "Be careful, in the ancient empire era, knowledge often meant corruption, and the power of darkness lurked between the lines, and they would tempt
You lose yourself."
Fang Yu touched his arm as if he didn't understand. He looked up at the other party and Toragotos on the golden mountain, and asked in confusion: "Dark and taboo knowledge? But this
What is going on, and what is Cang Zhihui?"
"I understand why you have such doubts, child," a loud voice rang in his mind, and Toragotos replied: "Because few people today know these secrets of the past. In the last day,
Era, before the Numerin elves left this world, they left behind five treasures."
"The Hailin Crown and the Hand of Philosophy were given to humans to witness the supreme power of mortals in the next era. But then humanity was divided into two, and the Hailin Crown remained in Aquin, serving as the first ancestor of Kaolin.
His brother, with his philosophical hands, crossed the sea of mist with the wizards and came to Hannarui today, where he defeated the giants and Nagas, and established a new empire on the ruins of the giant kingdom.
The embryonic form of today’s Oshur.”
Fang Plover has also heard this legend about the Battle of the Broken Sword. It is a history that the Oshu people are proud of.
Toragotos continued:
"The Holy Sword of Dawn, forged by Lotas, was left to the dwarves by the elves and became the treasure of Ithurion. Later Lotas was also called the protector of the dwarves. This sword is in its
Before it was lost, it was finally acquired by the dwarf hero Varit."
"There is also a emblem, the eternal gem, which was once the heart of the king on the throne of the elves. It has boundless magic power and is the supreme object of the elves. It was given to the people of the wilderness in Lotao, but the forest elves
When they fled from Lotao with the Papalars, a Papalar named Rabi took it away. They used it to plant the White Holy Tree, and the gem still sleeps in the giant tree.
in my heart."
Fang Yu was a little surprised: "I heard that Lotao's eternal gem had disappeared long ago. It turned out that it was just taken away by the elves and Papalars. No wonder Lotao still does not welcome any Papalars into their country.
, and as people of nature, their relationship with the forest elves in the Giant Tree Hill is also very cold. I didn’t expect to have such a relationship.”
The old dragon nodded slowly.
Fang Plover naturally knew that the White Holy Tree was Telaka, and it grew to form the Hill of Giant Trees, which is today the home of the forest elves and Papalar people. And the heart of the giant tree is the core of the Holy Tree Temple.
He looked back at Atila. If the lion-man Red was not lying, Miss Elf was once one of the priestesses of this temple.
Ancient palace guard, unicorn girl.
He couldn't help but ask: "Then the last treasure is the Holy Grail of the Elf?"
Toragothos replied: "That is the most beloved thing of the elves. It is naturally different from other treasures. The world firmly believes that it contains the mystery of the immortality of the Numelin elves, so the elves did not give it to anyone."
, but uses seven spiers to guard this ancient secret."
Fang Plover couldn't help but lost his voice: "Wait, seven obelisks? I heard an ancient ballad about them, and it turns out that what was sung in the song was actually true?"
The situation at that time flashed through his mind:
'Under the seven obelisks, buried are the secrets of Numerin, the Holy Grail of the Elf, the place where the twelve stars shine, eternal life, and endless wisdom.'
But what is the place where the twelve stars shine?
The dragon opened its eyes and stared at him with golden eyes: "People believe that the Holy Grail of the Elf contains the last secret left by the Numerin elves. Perhaps it is eternal life, or perhaps it is the answer in the ancient prophecy. It will tell us
,What exactly is the star of disaster?”
"Is this the purpose of your being here?" Fang Yu finally realized. He looked at everyone in the hall, including the lizard people, the old dwarf and the giant dragon: "The third evil star is really coming?"
"The Shining Sea is bleak, but we can only see some answers from the signs of the Serpent's Tail," the fat toad replied with a thick belly tone, "Only the elves of Numelin have experienced the Second Woe.
The Star Catastrophe, but after the battle of Aesorin, they sealed all related memories and knowledge. Both Aesorin and Isorin sank under the abyss. The Elf Holy Grail may be the only record of that battle at that time.
clue."
"But what does this have to do with me?"
"Because only those recognized by the elves of Numerin can approach the seven obelisks and learn from them the true burial place of the Holy Grail of the elves."
Fang Plover immediately remembered the black obelisk he had seen in the other person's memory before, and couldn't help but think to himself, maybe there is an obelisk underground on Fenris Island?
So the lizard people gathered here just to find the obelisk?
If you think about it, the purpose of the legendary dragon in front of you choosing to conduct a trial in this place is very questionable. The so-called going to the 12th floor of the ruins may be because the obelisk is under the 12th floor.
But the question is, why should the access level of trial participants be restricted for this reason? Or is it that the ruins themselves have restrictions on the power of entrants, or is it for some other reason?
He frowned, listening to Toragotos's words, he couldn't help but think of a possibility, and subconsciously touched the back of his right hand with his left hand.
Sure enough, the next moment Tolagothos' old voice replied: "You are a surprise brought to us by Terraric. You, it, and Prince Sorkin are all chosen by the stars.
But you are more special than them because you are the Holy One."
"The Holy Choice?"
"Chosen Ones, is that what you call yourselves?"
Fang Yu nodded, wondering if there was anything special about the chosen ones. They were just guests from another world.
But Toragotos did not answer the question directly, but skipped it and replied: "You have the power of the Blue Glory, which is the symbol of the holder of the Sea Forest Crown. Its power is very special. Because Milei
The Crown of Ra-Heilin is forged from the flames of the fragments of the world, and has the pure power to restrain all dark forces."
Fang Yu was horrified. The Crown of Sea Forest was his biggest secret. He hadn't even told Sylvide, but he didn't expect that she would see through it at a glance. And he also understood why Nicol Bolas sounded disgusted.
Say that to him, because the dark dragon can indeed be regarded as the ultimate form of dark power.
But the other party's fascination with the power of Cang Zhihui seems to be unreasonable just because of this. He vaguely felt that Toragotos was hiding something from him, and what the flame of the world fragment was, he didn't seem to have heard before.
Said.
But he finally figured out one thing and couldn't help but ask: "In other words, the four treasures left by the elves of Numerin for humans, dwarves and people of the wilderness are actually looking for the seven obelisks.
qualifications?"
"That's right, mortal." The fat toad replied angrily.
"But why don't they just leave the Holy Grail to the mortals without going to such trouble?" Fang Pliance couldn't help but ask.
"Xinsas and Numelin are both ancient sages. Their purpose cannot be seen through by mortal eyes. They left such an arrangement, so they naturally have their purpose." The former gave him a very contemptuous look.
replied.
Fang Yu rolled his eyes in his heart and thought, if you don't know, just tell me.
He looked at Tolagothos, but the old dragon also shook his head: "The Numerin elves took everything with them when they left. No one knows why they arranged it this way, and all we can do is
Just accept it.”
This is quite true.
Fang Plover frowned and asked: "So the purpose of this trial is to find the obelisk?"
"It would be great to find the obelisk, but I have only seen it once when I was young. Over the years, I have arranged for people to go and explore it, just to confirm its location again." Toragotos replied: "But
This time, what worries me the most is the corrosion below, and I suspect that they have begun to affect the surface world. I felt the aura from the night lizards before, which confirmed this idea for me."
"Corrosion?" Fang Plover was slightly surprised.
"There are rumors that there is a dark god sleeping underground on Fenris Island. Although no one has ever seen it, the ruins are indeed full of dark power," Toragothos replied: "Because of the crimes I committed when I was young.
A mistake. In the past hundred years, that force has become extremely active. I worry that one day they will come to the surface, and it will be a terrible disaster for the entire Fenris Island."
Fang Yu remembered the scene he saw in his memories and asked: "You mean to let us solve this problem, but Lord Magery, you are the most powerful being in Corin-Ishulian, why?"
Why don’t you make up for this mistake yourself?”
"Watch your tone, boy," the old dwarf finally spoke for the first time. He said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you think old Toragotos is like this? The lifespan of dragons is more than a thousand years.
That's because it used the power of Mirela's artifact to suppress the dark power underground, and it connected itself to this place, which is why it became what it is now."
Fang Yu reacted: "Lord Magery is so weak, does that mean the situation underground has deteriorated to an unimaginable level?"
Toragotos nodded laboriously and sighed heavily: "This matter cannot be revealed. Young man, even if you are unwilling to complete this trial, please keep it a secret. Although I have entrusted the kingdom and dwarf friends to
We are helping to relocate the residents on the island, but no one expected that the situation would deteriorate so quickly. The night lizards on the island have always been aloof from me, and are unwilling to stand with humans, and now this storm
It will delay the entire plan, and I am worried that it will cause panic on the island and get out of hand."
Fang Yu couldn't help but be silent for a moment. He would definitely participate in the trial. Although it might be dangerous down there, with the wings of Mirela's sub-artifact, the safety of their lives was not a concern.
But he was concerned about another question: "Since the dwarves of the Kaolin Kingdom and Ithulian know about this matter, why don't you entrust them to it? After all, it is more reliable than trainees and newcomers like us, right?"
"The reason is very simple, boy," the fat toad said: "Because there are not only dark forces below, but also the great ancient black holy city of Sinsas, which was a pilgrimage road before the last era, allowing those who
The newly hatched Sinsas and Gudasok passed through this road and were connected to each other with the great will."
"Xinsas and Gudasok, who have just hatched, are almost at the level of your trainees," the old dragon's voice echoed again: "Due to the erosion of dark power in recent years, part of the barrier has been destroyed.
Allowing people of your level of strength to enter."
Only then did Fang Plover understand.
He couldn't help but look at his arms and asked, "Then what are we going to do?"
"You don't need to do anything," the old dwarf replied: "Everyone who joins the trial will gain strength from Lord Mirela's divine power. You will bring the power of purification into the depths of the ruins. The deeper you go, the deeper you go."
, the more beneficial it will be to make up for the seal that was destroyed that year."
It turns out that this is how the trial works. Only then did Fang Plover understand the reason for the arrangement of this legendary dragon. It seems that the other party was able to make Mirela's semi-artifact because he had achieved this with the goddess of life.
Because of the agreement.
From the looks of it, that semi-artifact not only protects Cloud Harbor, but more importantly, suppresses the dark power beneath the island.
But then he became even more curious, what was sleeping deep in the island? Is it really an ancient dark god?
"But that's just the purpose of ordinary people," the fat toad said again: "You, Terraric, and Prince Sorkin, your purpose is more important, which is to find the ancient obelisk and recreate the ancient prophecies
Plan with Numerin."
"I never promised such a thing."
Fang Yu thought to himself, but he couldn't help but look at Tenerik who was standing aside.
The lizard man prince felt something and turned back to look at him, then nodded slightly to him.
The fat toad continued: "Asuka's sacrifice is knowledge from the darkness. Let the old red-skin bless you. Little fellow Andasok, you have been destined to accept this kind of sacrifice from the moment you were born.
fate."
Teneric nodded slightly before reaching out to the blood lizard elder.
The old blood lizard man gave the lizard man prince a gentle look, nodded, and his gorgeous feathers swayed slightly. He stretched out his claws and pressed them on Tenerik's arm.
Fang Yu looked at this scene with some curiosity. The blessing given to him was the ability to use life to convert magic power. Although he had not tried it yet, he could understand the function of this ability from the literal meaning.
But Teneric is a warrior. Does such an ability mean something to the other party? Or does the ritual have different effects for different people?
While he was curious, the fat toad seemed to have read through his mind, squinting his eyes and replied: "There are thousands of dark knowledges, and different people will naturally gain different insights. But be careful, Lao Hong."
Pi Ke is right, dark knowledge is dangerous and powerful, if you can't stick to yourself, you will become a real monster if you take one cautious step."
Fang Yu immediately thought of Nicol Bolas and the Dragon Slayer clan, and couldn't help but shudder.
But he thought that since he was the chosen one, would the chosen one also turn into a dragon? Of course, dark creatures are not just dark dragons, it would be funny if they turned into those twisted monsters.
At this time, the fat toad spoke again: "As for you, mortal, come here and stretch out your hand. Let's see what the stars will tell you. They guard the ancient secrets. The power in the stars is no better than that of darkness."
Knowledge is inferior by half”
Fang Yu was stunned and turned back to look at the other party.
Only then did he remember that they were the descendants of the Tada lizard tribe Ka-Cuilan. They were the successors of the sacrificial bloodline of the Gudasok lizard people. Andasok gained power from the sun, and Asuka worshiped the moon.
dark secret.
Ka-Cuilan is the guardian of the stars and the night sky.
The school of prophets and astrologers.
At this time, the fat toad had reached out and gently touched his arm.
