Under the rolling hills and hills of East Metz, under the low clouds and mist, there are intricate caves buried deep in the ground. There are countless ruins in the darkness. Many living creatures and the dead are lingering among them, emerging at night and hiding in the day. About their ancient history
Legend has it that folk songs and stories have been passed down from generation to generation among the people of Metz, and the elderly will occasionally mention these creepy stories.
According to legend, husbands use it to teach their wives and mothers use it to frighten their sons. The terror in the night and the whispers in the forest disperse with the winds of summer and autumn, lingering for hundreds of years.
This dark power is only in the hands of a few of the most powerful dark lords, known as 'Grand Dukes'. In history, Metz has had three 'Grand Dukes', the first of which was Ove.
Baron Snowy of Xin, he controlled the dark world thirty years before his death and thirty years after his death. He was once canonized as a saint, and he was also a
A profound necromancer, he deceived the world and stole his name until sixty years after his death. He was dug out of the tomb, his bones were smashed and ashes were burned. His authority was sealed in a crown by the temple and stored in Thorn Island Prison.
Underground, it was later stolen during the turbulent years and then completely lost; the second one was the famous Ludwig Witch,
She spread her followers widely in the forest of Silver Valley, attracting dark wizards, bandits and mercenaries to join her carefully run cult. At that time, passers-by knew that Ludwig's day belonged to the Duke, and his night belonged to him.
The Queen of Witches, a name that even the gentle breeze whispers through the forest dare not mention. Travelers remain silent, and merchants remain silent.
The knights did not even dare to approach the forest at night. The witch finally died at the hands of the paladin Luther. Her heart was nailed with wooden spikes in the Sweet Harbor Perkin Temple. The holy flames above burned blazingly all year round. It is said that to this day
There are still shrill screams coming from it, and there are always strong winds near the church, causing pedestrians to detour. And the statue of the Holy Knight Luther
To this day, it still exists in the Three Ports of East Metz. In the Golden Square of Port Fatan, travelers can still see the face of this heroic knight; the third one is the master of Balia, the Duke of Golden Flame, who was in the mortal world.
His power in this world is equivalent to his status in the dark world, and his life is extremely luxurious and depraved. He is selfish and narrow-minded, extremely greedy for beauty, and was cursed by passers-by as a devil duke.
The favored minister Victor was actually Lord Roclair, the tree shepherd. He had repeatedly provoked the majesty of the Temple of Fire in public, preached heresy, and finally died on the stake. After his defeat, all his close ministers
With no chance of escaping death, Victor Krolaire is still imprisoned in the most severe dungeon in the empire. And his
The authority was stored in the underground vault of the Great Cathedral of Ovehin, and was sealed by four saints. A Knight of the Flame swore his life to protect it for the rest of his life.
"The so-called authority is actually the power of the dark orb." The underground world is silent. The beam of light hanging from the top of the head seems to be the only light source in the darkness. The flashing light spots are flying in the darkness, and there is a layer of floating mist. Bai's voice
Echoing in the empty hall, a layer of sand fell from time to time. But no one paid attention:
"An explorer discovered this treasure in a cave maze underground in the Fawn Woodland and brought it out. The treasure then fell into the hands of a businessman named Rodrian, who later worked for a man who would unite all things.
A high-level wizard conspired to murder him, and the dark orb was obtained by that wizard, who used the power of the eternal evil object Mavicart's book
He extracted the power from the dark orb and made a skeletal scepter, a ring and a crown. These three treasures all have the power to command the undead and are the most precious treasures in the world of the undead. They were later named the above-mentioned ones.
Among the three people's possessions, the Bone Crown has long been lost and the amethyst ring was destroyed by the Paladin Luther. Only the remaining
The Scepter of Bones is sealed beneath the vault of Owysin."
It turned out to be the Dark Orb. Brando suddenly realized that, like the Ice Orb, the Dark Orb is a sacred object of the dark element. It is the source of all negative magic. Therefore, it can command the undead formed by the negative magic. But the return of all things
After a while, a high-level wizard was able to escape from the darkness with the help of the eternal evil book of Mavicart.
The power extracted from the orb is obviously not an ordinary person, but probably a famous figure in the history of this organization.
"Is this why you came here?"
"To be precise, I came here for the Skeleton Scepter. I killed the Flame Knight, and the Skeleton Scepter is now in the hands of Duke Ambnar."
"The commander of the White Legion?"
Bai nodded.
Brando suddenly remembered something. "By the way, does Amman's transformation of himself into an undead have something to do with you?" He asked: "Amman's access to the eternal evil object Mavicart's Book should be genuine.
The high-level people of the All-Union Society, but the high-level people of the All-Union Society will never accept an undead. He should have become a soul only after that.
Undead." At this point, he couldn't help but cast a deep look at Bai Bai: "You tree herders can actually penetrate all things and unite them for a while?"
The method of infiltration used by the All In One Society is unparalleled in "The Amber Sword". For an organization with such strong penetration, its ability to reverse infiltration is naturally not that bad, or even stronger, so he is very
It's hard not to be surprised by this.
"Infiltration? That's hard to say," Bai replied with great self-knowledge: "Bewitching Anman was just my personal behavior. That person wanted to pursue immortality. I saw his ambition and was able to convince him to join us." She said.
A sneer appeared on his pale face: "Eternal immortality. Only madmen can be immortal. Reasonable people can be immortal."
People would never chase such illusory things."
Bromando's black rose is known as immortal and eternal. It is interesting to hear such words from a dark nobleman of Madara. Brando found it interesting. "So, no wonder Andesa can recognize him."
Come, but they didn’t seem to be too much to deal with at first, and Amman didn’t join the tree shepherds?”
"He has no interest in the tree shepherd. That person is a truly selfish maggot. Everything he does is based on his own interests and lives only for himself. He cannot understand our pursuit at all. We
I won't accept such a person." Bai said calmly.
"What about you? Are you bewitching him for the Book of Mavicart, an eternal evil?"
"Yes, I exchanged the eternal secret with him, hoping to get a counterfeit of Mavicart's Book from his hands." Bai raised his eyelids and glanced at him with golden eyes: "As far as I know
The high-level wizard who brought all things together at the time used the counterfeit of Mavicart's Book as a medium to extract the power of the Dark Orb."
"You seem to be very obsessed with the power of the Dark Orb." Brando asked doubtfully: "Wait a minute, you said that the high-level wizard of the All-Union Association used the counterfeit of Mavicart's Book as a medium to extract the power of the Dark Orb.
, and you want to get the counterfeit of the Book of Mavicalt from Amman, could it be said that you have found the dark treasure?
Beads?"
The golden flames in his white eyes flickered slightly, but he did not answer the question.
"It seems that you guessed it right, Brando. Not only did she find the Dark Orb, but it seems that the Dark Orb is probably in this hall." Bai Jia smiled slightly and said.
Bai suddenly turned around and stared at the female knight very angrily, but she understood that it was of no use and couldn't help but sighed softly: "Yes, I am sure that I have found the Dark Orb."
Brando and Bai Jia glanced at each other, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. The dark orb disappeared without a trace after the high-level wizard who reunited everything. Even the orb made with the power extracted from it disappeared.
The three treasures passed through hundreds of years and fell into the hands of three different people. After that, another hundred years passed.
The Bone Crown was missing, and even the amethyst ring was completely destroyed. I didn't expect this woman to be so ambitious. She even looked down on these three treasures and turned her attention directly to the Dark Orb.
And listening to her words, she didn't know how long ago she started making this plan. Judging from the information Brando knew, it was at least earlier than the time he traveled through time.
This woman is so scheming and calm. If they hadn't been so familiar with her, they might not have been able to make her suffer such a big loss this time.
"If I guessed correctly, the Dark Orb should have been obtained by Luo Risen's wife," Bai continued: "It's just that at that time, the power in the orb somehow left the orb itself and was injected into her body, just like the blood of a god.
Same. This can only be the work of a tree shepherd. Your guess that Glass is a tree shepherd also agrees with my guess.
When they applied for each other, I think it was a high-ranking member of the Tree Shepherd who extracted the power from the dark orb and made it into a kind of pure blood of God, and Lawson's wife was probably just a middle- and lower-level believer of the Tree Shepherd. Yes.
A divine messenger, an experiment."
"Blood of the Dark God." Brando said suddenly.
Bai glanced at him: "Did you see it from Andesa?"
Brando didn't say that the blood of the Dark God was on him, he just nodded silently.
"It should have something to do with the Dark Orb, but it's not pure. It should be a secondary product derived from the experiment on Glass. There is only one true envoy of darkness in the world, and that is her." Bai said scornfully: "
Her power is so pure and powerful. Otherwise, how could you think that with the consistent behavior of the Temple of Flame?
We can only seal her, and being burned on the stake is her only fate."
"Is this the real purpose of your coming here?" Brando looked at Lawson, who was standing aside. The pale light shone on its phosphorus-like white bones, carving dark shadows like ink between the bones, and the golden eyes in its eyes.
The flames were burning, and there was no reaction to their words. He didn't know if it could hear what they said between them.
Conversation, but this knight must have loved his wife deeply during his lifetime, otherwise he would not have sacrificed his reputation and everything, even enduring endless pain after death to protect her here.
This is truly noble and sincere love, which transcends life and death and is superior to everything in this world.
But good things are often easily exploited by evil, just like now. Brando stared at the undead knight for a long time, turned back and asked: "Are you going to make a deal with it and take away the dark orb from its wife's body?"
strength?"
"Are you going to stop me?"
"Shouldn't I stop you?" Brando asked.
Bai smiled coldly. "But if I don't take away the blood of the Dark God, that poor woman's soul will be sealed here forever, enduring pain and suffering, and Sir Loricson, an upright and noble knight, will have to hate him the most during his lifetime.
The state of a thing, living in this dark underground, guarding silently all day long, but not being able to see your lover all day long
Two pure souls are bound here forever. Day after day, year after year, only darkness lasts."
"What does this have to do with us?" Morpheus had long been puzzled by this. He could not understand this kind of mortal emotion at all. For him, there were only differences between hunters and prey, masters and servants.
For him, apart from food, there was only his master. He dedicated all the good things in his life to death and loyalty.
All it takes is one look from Lando to make him die willingly.
But Brando and Bai Jia fell into silence.
"Sir, there are many powers in this world. As long as you give up your principles, they will be at your fingertips. For people like me, there is no difference between the power of the Dark Orb, the power of Mavicart's Book or any other power. I will eventually
Gaining power and doing evil in the world does not depend on the means I use to gain power. Right now
It is already the best result, so why stick to tradition? Besides, only if I convince Luo Risen can you safely take away the slate from here. This is a win-win deal. You can deal with me at any time, right?"
Bai's voice echoed in the dark underground, like a devil's whisper. It was full of charming magic.
"Since you know that I will kill you, why do you pursue this anymore?" Brando asked coldly.
With blazing golden flames burning in her white eyes, she smiled, revealing her white fangs. "I don't believe in inevitability. As long as there is a glimmer of opportunity, it is worth all my efforts."
"In that case, why should I give you this opportunity to turn defeat into victory?" Brando asked again: "Unlike you, I am a cautious person, and I would like to have everything in my own hands."
Bai did not speak, as if she believed that Brando would eventually change his mind. However, at this time, a low and old voice sounded in the darkness:
"Send her over here, young man."
The three people turned back together. The golden fire in the eyes of the tall and pale skeleton knight was beating. It turned around creakingly and looked at Bai. A hollow and vicissitudes of voice seemed to come from its chest: "
You said you could lift the curse on Glass and free her from this endless suffering?"
This is not an undead soul without intelligence
"Sir Luo Risen" Brando was the first to react. He hurriedly stopped him. This woman was too scary. Although she didn't look like she was lying, who could guarantee it? But the Skeleton Knight was only interested in him.
He waved his hand gently and interrupted him: "I have been listening here for a long time. The three of you know my life very well. So are you willing to sit down and listen to what I, an old man, have to say?"
Brando and Bai Jia looked at each other in astonishment. Bai Jia didn't answer. His eyes flickered and he didn't know what he was thinking. Finally, Brando nodded and replied: "Please tell me."
The undead knight was silent for a moment, and then a low voice echoed in the darkness: "I was born in the countryside of Granu, and I have experienced many people and things throughout my life. Some of those memories can be remembered, and some can no longer be remembered, but
For me now, they only leave endless pain and suffering. My love for Grass now only has an oath and a bond. The human emotions have long since disappeared. But in the darkness,
", but the thought often flashed through my mind that I wanted to see her again. Once this thought arose in my mind, it took root and sprouted and could not be suppressed."
"I don't know if this is love anymore, but I just want to see her. Young man, I may have experienced more in my life than you, but I don't dare to boast about myself in front of you at this moment. I just want to ask you, can you
Fulfilling an old man’s wish.”
"I dedicated my life to Martha, but I never saw the light of day"
Sighs in the darkness are like sand and dust in the wind. After the sand and gravel are dispersed, only endless vicissitudes remain.
Brando and Bai Jia couldn't speak for a long time. I dedicated my life to Martha, but I never saw the light of day. However, we are also pursuers of ideals. Will they end up like this one day? Is it true that sacrifice is enough in this world?
Will there be rewards, or are they just well-intentioned comforts and lies, just whispers of desperate people comforting each other in the dark.
What if there was never light in this darkness?
"Then let me ignite this fire." This uncontrollable thought silently rose in Brando's heart.
Bai hid in the shadow of the two people, still saying nothing, but Brando knew that she had succeeded. He sighed, there are some things in this world that you may know are wrong, but you have to do them, because the name
The power of humanity, together with the brilliance of reason, also shines in the darkness. "Perhaps what we need is not cold correctness, senior sister." He said softly to Bai Jia.
Bai Jia remained silent.
At that moment, she suddenly remembered the empire called Maldos.
