Oriana then gave Roel a general introduction to dragons in this world.
They did exist, and perhaps they were once awesome. Anyway, relevant descriptions can be found in some historical books.
The image is still that of a large lizard with long wings, not like those flashy things in Rohr's impression.
But we don’t know exactly when, but they became extinct probably a few hundred to a thousand years ago.
The specific reasons are unknown, but later generations of humans have speculated that there are no more than three types.
They are few in number and do not reproduce well.
The environment changes and is no longer habitable.
The meat is delicious, the bones are tough, the horns are beautiful, and the scales are gorgeous...
Many people prefer the third reason. After all, there is no killing without buying and selling...
There are also some people who believe that some of the current sub-dragon species are actually the dragons of the past who voluntarily gave up their delicious taste, tough bones and gorgeous appearance in order to survive under the butcher's knife.
This statement is also supported by many people.
After Oriana's evaluation, she believed that this one-handed sword made of dragon bone should be the most valuable antique found in this temple so far.
This is a true, out-of-print weapon that can never be reproduced again.
Moreover, the social atmosphere of the empire was martial, and swordsmanship had an excellent mass base. As a result, sword antiques were several times more valuable than various bottles and cans, especially this well-preserved, unique one-handed sword.
It is qualified as the grand finale of a themed auction, and it is of the highest quality, only for celebrities.
In comparison, the seed bottles and wild boar teeth that Rolle found could not be sold for much.
Because mortals simply cannot discern the value of these things.
They don't even know what the Devil is, so how can they know what the Devil's Fang is?
Moreover, these things are so quiet that no unnecessary fluctuations are emitted, as if they are dead.
Even a knowledgeable ninth-level saint like Oriana only regards them as expired sacred objects that have lost their effectiveness.
But in fact, this is because their state is too perfect. This state of being quiet and calm enough is actually the most ideal situation for sacred objects.
This means that when they explode, they will release the most powerful force, and when they are quiet, they will charge the lowest price. Only in this way can they burst out with powerful enough power and pay a price that humans can bear.
According to mankind's current supernatural theories, holy objects in this state should only exist in theory, because they are too perfect and powerful to be divorced from reality.
In order for a sacred object to achieve this state, it theoretically needs to be made with the most original and pure mystery, exquisite design, and the most superb means.
At the same time, it requires a demigod-level expert who spends countless hours caring for and polishing it to achieve this most ideal state.
But once you become a demigod, you need to sleep for most of the time, and you don't have the time to bother with it. This becomes an unsolvable false proposition.
So it's not her fault that Oriana didn't recognize it. After all, dozens of villagers in the small mountain village could only come up with a total of 12 such holy objects.
Moreover, ordinary people cannot use the sacred objects in this state, let alone dismantle and restore them. It is not wrong to say that they have no value.
"If you like it very much, keep it as a souvenir."
Oriana whispered a reminder beside Rolle.
She watched Luo Er play with the sword repeatedly and seemed to like it very much.
In fact, she liked this sword quite a lot, but at this time, she chose to be humble.
Although it is a top-level collection at auction level, with Oriana's net worth, there is no shortage of collections of the same level in her showroom.
It would not be a loss to give it to your husband.
Men always need some precious personal collections.
As for whether such valuable antiques could enrich her own pockets, Oriana didn't care at all.
No need to care.
She is a ninth-level saint from the Scholars Association. Who dares to make irresponsible remarks about her?
As for the organization that is qualified to supervise the Scholars Association, isn’t its leader by her side?
However, after playing with it for a while, Rohr handed the dragon bone sword back to Oriana.
"It feels uncomfortable in the hand, and the design of the hilt does not fit the hand very well. It should be a style specially designed for women, or men with slender fingers."
Rohr opened his mouth to explain.
As a qualified swordsman, he cares very much about the feel of his hand. Once his hand feels uncomfortable, he will not be able to use a sword no matter how good it is.
And he never thought of hiding the sword privately. Those worthless little things can be kept as souvenirs. Such high-value things must not be touched.
After checking this floor, the family of three temporarily left the temple and went back to rest.
In the next two days, their family of three carefully inspected the underground part of the temple.
In the end, no dangerous monsters were found. The sudden appearance of the giant black beetle was just an accident?
The entire exploration process was quite uneventful. There were a few times when the mechanism was triggered, and the ceiling suddenly fell down, or arrows were shot out of the wall.
But for a family of three who are mostly eighth-level legends, there is basically no threat, just like a haunted house in an amusement park, right? The falling ceiling was shattered with two swords, and the hidden arrows struck the
Not even a single mark was left on the deformed armor.
It wasn't until they reached the last two floors that the Rolle family encountered something moving.
At that time, Rohr found a coffin-like cabinet on the second floor of the temple and went to check if there was anything hidden inside.
As a result, a skeleton suddenly popped out of it, its eyes glowing with bloodthirsty red light.
"Wow!"
Luo was immediately startled.
And the skeleton's reaction was also very strange.
It was actually startled by Rohr...
I saw it jump up suddenly, cover its face with both hands, and scream.
As a result, I used too much force and accidentally took off my own head...
Then the whole skeleton fell apart...
Luo suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"No, I haven't even started yet?"
"And why would you, a skeleton, be scared to death by a living person?"
Next, he also met some undead creatures such as ghosts and ghosts.
Upon seeing him, the reaction of the undead creatures was similar to the previous skeletons, running around in terror and crashing into the surrounding walls.
They still refused to give up and could only beat the wall feebly and let out a series of roars.
Although I can’t understand what they are roaring, it always feels like they are shouting: Let me out!
It's so pitiful...
All in all, that's all there is to the little thrill, it's really just the level of a haunted house adventure in an amusement park.
As for the harvest, in addition to the special coffin with the skeleton popping out, a huge warhammer and a particularly weird-looking spear were found on the bottom two floors.
Rolle had no interest in these things. He just paid a little attention to them, took them out, threw them into the cultural relics pile, and handed them over to professionals for analysis and research.
As for the story on the mural, the elves also mastered extraordinary power at a critical moment, gave birth to the first batch of secret magic users, and successfully resisted the attack of the suspected Yayalaka people after paying a heavy price.
Then it was a smooth journey, and many cities were established to form a country. After several large-scale wars, they finally established a foothold in the northwest of the continent.
Throughout the entire story, the establishment and continuation of the elven civilization is also full of bloodshed and violence. This actually has nothing to do with the various beautiful impressions they left to humans such as beauty, elegance, and peace.
If you want to survive, these are not enough.
"So, we can't lose our swordsmanship, we must have the power to protect ourselves!"
Luo Er used the history in this mural to educate his daughter, fearing that she would concentrate on academics and lose the family's swordsmanship.
Keli naturally nodded her head.
In fact, she still prefers swordsmanship to history, but her father seems to want her to study history more, so naturally she cannot go against his expectations.
Fortunately, she is also very interested in history itself.
Oriana, on the other hand, has been pondering the origin of the elves' secret arts.
She felt that the description of the mural was a bit strange. Based on her understanding of the secret arts, it was almost impossible to study and master this kind of thing on her own without the support of a mature system.
At that time, the elves were forced to retreat by the Yayalaka people, and it was already a matter of life and death. It was impossible for them to have the leisure and energy to study these things. They did not have such conditions.
This is a whole system, and it is something that requires a lot of talent, a lot of time, and a lot of money to study with great concentration. It cannot be solved by a genius suddenly popping up.
However, the mural's description of this matter is very omitted. It looks like a group of people suddenly learned the secret technique with a slap on the head, and then they were able to fight against the Yayalaka civilization that had mastered the secret technique for a long time.
That’s outrageous!
Regarding this question, Tianxinguo's neighbor who watched the entire live broadcast of Luo Er's adventure was also very curious and even asked Ada specifically.
"How did you fight against the Yayalaka people back then?"
Because of some arrangements left by Ada, Luo Er's adventure activities in the temple have been live broadcast online, and it is in high-definition 4K, and even the murals on the wall can be seen clearly.
Ada smiled evilly and replied:
"It's nothing more than those ordinary means, surrender, differentiation, wooing, and the use of some beauty."
"Although the Yayalaka people were very prosperous at that time, they were not monolithic inside. After the elves took the initiative to sacrifice several beautiful elf girls, they gained some breathing time."
"Afterwards, some elves came into contact with the main god Lukachia worshiped by Yayalaka through the people who were attracted by Yayalaka, who was killed by the village chief last time."
"As for Lucachia, as the original founder of secret arts, the original demon god, and an existence that reached the apex of the elemental system, before falling, his temperament was very easy-going, and he generously accepted elves as his followers. This is true.
Very similar to the village chief..."
"After that, the war between the elves and Yayalaka will naturally end."
Ada's answer was very different from the description on the mural. According to the mural, they had to fight many bloody battles and hurt the Yayalaka people before they gave up their hostility.
But the real history is completely different.
And Ada continued to explain:
"This historical secret was originally known only to the elf emperors of the past generations, but when it was my turn, I decided to seal it permanently and never mention it again. If I were not an elf now, I would definitely not tell it."
"But I still ask you to keep it a secret for me."
The fat man and others who were listening nodded and continued to ask:
"What happened after that? The elves discovered that Lucachia was showing signs of corruption and turned their backs on him?"
Ah Da nodded and replied:
"That was the decision made by my former emperor. In the process of believing in Lucachia, he discovered that although this god was powerful, he was actually seriously injured. This should be an injury caused by an earlier battle between gods...
…”
"After He protected the elves for a period of time, he showed many signs of depravity, and his temperament was no longer as gentle as before, and became increasingly chaotic and cruel..."
"The Yayalaka people are also aware of this. For the survival of their respective ethnic groups, the two civilizations began to secretly implement the 'betrayal' plan, began to demolish his temple, banned related sacrifices, and sealed related documents..."
"You should also know what happened next. After paying a heavy price, the elves and the Yayalaka people successfully sealed Lucachia, and the elven emperor who participated in the war also died in that war, so it was his turn to
I……"
"These contents are actually recorded on the murals on the upper floors, but the village chief hasn't had time to go up and take a look. It was only after I gained some insights from this Battle of the Gods that I found a way to advance to the 11th level."
When Ada said these words, his tone became a little sad, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
The fat man seemed to have guessed his thoughts and asked in a low voice:
"It seems you realized something?"
Ah Da nodded and admitted:
"Yes, at that time, I had just been promoted to Demigod, and my understanding and mastery of the extraordinary was very poor. I once naively thought that the Battle of the Gods was a great victory that belonged to us..."
"It wasn't until after I was promoted that I gradually understood that we at that time were simply unable to confront a god head-on..."
"Yes, even though Lucachia had already degenerated into an evil god at that time, he was still sealed voluntarily. As a true god, he also maintained some rationality in that situation."
"Then when He woke up again, he did not kill the local civilians, he just enjoyed their worship..."
As he spoke, another wry smile appeared on his face, and he sighed in a low voice:
"But all this has passed. Fortunately, the village chief appeared in time and granted him eternal relief. Otherwise, he would have endured longer and more painful torture..."
