"I have to say, you have a pair of divine eyes!" The old man stroked his beard and nodded in admiration, "These pair of 'Sun Chaser Wings' are indeed the most precious treasure here!"
"Wings of the Sun Chaser?" Huang Yi repeated the name.`
"Yes! The Wings of the Sun Chaser, also known as the 'Wings of Icarus', were made by the last epic hero of our Feathered Tribe - Sun Chaser Icarus!" the old man said with an old look in his eyes.
Staring at the pair of wings hanging on the wall, he said faintly: "Before our ancestors came here to live in seclusion, a total of eight epic heroes were born in the history of the Feathered People. The last one was Sun Chaser Ika.
Los! His name means "light of the setting sun" in the ancient language of the Yumen. This name is like the fate of the Yumen. He appeared in the most tragic and gloomy era of the Yumen, that is, the Oskan Empire.
Period. At that time, our Yumen tribe basically only had some slaves whose wings were clipped. The offspring of these slaves had serious defects and their wings were incomplete. After one generation, the Yumen tribe lost the ability to fly. As you can see,
When our people were about to bid farewell to the sky, Ikaros the Sun Chaser was born!"
When the old man said this, a glimmer of light shone in his eyes: "Icarus is a member of our 'Zhuri Clan'. After he was born, like all the people at that time, he did not have complete wings and could not fly. But he did not
He was willing to sink like this. He longed to soar in the vast sky and chase the warm sun like his ancestors. When he was young, he was determined to revitalize the entire Yumen tribe and lead the tribe back to the sky. To this end, he frantically learned all kinds of
Knowledge, alchemy, forging, engineering, architecture, etc... Then he began a long period of research, trying every means to make every feathered human race fly. He tried alchemy and medicine, and wanted to make alchemy.
He made a permanent flying potion, but failed in the end; he tried runes and magic and other means, which could indeed make people fly reluctantly, but the flight speed and height never met his expectations. After various attempts,
After that, he finally turned his attention to engineering and wanted to create an artificial wing!"
As the old man spoke, he paced slowly towards the pair of wings on the wall. He continued: "After careful design, Icarus finally created the first pair of wings. Those wings really made him
He flew up, but only flew a short distance. The wooden frame of the wings could not withstand the strong wind and broke. He fell from the air and broke a leg. Icarus had to continue to improve the design.
First, he improved the structure of the skeleton many times, and changed the materials of the skeleton to countless kinds. He conducted test flights again and again, and almost fell to death several times. After repeated failures and improvements, he finally created a brand new
This alloy has strong hardness and is very light at the same time. The wing frame made of it meets Icarus's needs. His dream for many years has finally come true! "
The old man said and smiled slightly: "Icarus quickly made a batch of such wings and distributed them to other feathered people. During that time, the feathered people did fly again. After bidding farewell to the sky for many years,
Finally he flew again, and the whole clan celebrated with joy. Icarus was regarded as the hero of the whole clan and was written into the epic of our clan. Since he is a member of my "Zhuri Clan", everyone called him affectionately
He is the 'Sun Chaser'."
"Why haven't these wings become popular?" Huang Yi asked doubtfully, "It stands to reason that if this artificial wing is really so powerful, it should leave a strong mark in world history, but I
Never heard of it.”
"Because this kind of wings still has flaws!" the old man said without hesitation. "The alloy created by Icarus is too expensive to make, and the raw metal is extremely rare. With the resources of the Feather Tribe at the time, there was no way to mass-produce them.
In addition, the feathers attached to the wings are easily damaged. Every time you fly, you have to put on new feathers. The time to attach feathers is longer than the time to fly, which is very troublesome. Over time, the Feathered People have this problem.
I have lost interest in this kind of artificial wing, it is still not perfect enough to allow the feathered people to truly return to the sky!"
When the old man said this, he shook his head slightly and expressed his opinion: "In fact, in my opinion, the biggest problem of the Feathered People is not that they have no wings, but that the entire race has declined too seriously. Even if it can be restored,
When flying, it is no longer an opponent of other races. A mere artificial wing cannot stop the historical trend of decline of the Feathered Race. Moreover, these wings will attract the prying eyes and snatching of other races, leading to death.
disaster."
The old man sighed and continued: "But Icarus was not willing to end like this. He vowed to circle the whole world to chase the sun like his ancestor Johns did in his lifetime! In order to solve the problem of artificial wing feathers, he did not hesitate to use
A kind of clan treasure treasured by the Yu tribe - more than 8,000 pieces of Johns Feathers!"
"Feather of Johns? More than 8,000 pieces?" Huang Yi was immediately horrified!
Johns Feather, this is a famous treasure in the second world!
Although Johns became a god at that time, the feathers on his body fell off. There were a hundred thousand pieces in total, floating around the world! Only a few of them can be passed down to this day!
As long as the priest profession can obtain a Feather of Johns and embed it in his equipment, his healing ability will be greatly improved.
As long as a priest player can get a piece of Johns Feather, he can become a priest master.
And Icarus actually got more than 8,000 pieces! This amount would scare people to death!
"Yes! More than eight thousand pieces!" The old man nodded, stretched out his withered palms, gently rubbed the pair of wings on the wall, and traced his fingers across the dense golden feathers on them, "Johns left behind one hundred thousand pieces.
One-tenth of the feathers have been collected by our Yumen tribe, which is about 10,000 pieces. After the feathers were spread to the time of Icarus, there were still more than 8,000 pieces left. Icarus took these more than 8,000 pieces to Johns
The feathers were all attached to his own pair of artificial wings! After replacing these powerful feathers, the pair of artificial wings suddenly soared into the sky and shone brightly, far more powerful than any previous pair of artificial wings.
Unrivaled! After Icarus is equipped with these wings, he has a vague demeanor of Johns reappearing in the world!"
"Those are simply a pair of divine wings!" the old man's tone became excited. "After Icarus got these wings, he was so happy that he immediately put them behind him, flew into the sky, and began to try to be like his ancestors.
They chased the sun like that! That was always an epic day. Countless races in the world were shocked to find a figure in the sky under the sun! After countless years, there was actually another feathered race chasing the sun.
! Countless people are looking up on the earth, it seems that the whole world is watching Icarus's journey to the sun. That was the last record of chasing the sun in the history of our Yu tribe! However, this also attracted the attention of Yu.
Some enemies of the human race, many masters went to heaven to intercept Icarus."
The old man paused and continued: "My people of the Zhuri clan chase the sun not for idleness, but for a practical physiological need, because in our blood, we are born with the talent to absorb sunlight.
In the process of chasing the sun, you can strengthen yourself the fastest. In the process of chasing the sun, Johns' strength improved by leaps and bounds, and the pair of god-like wings on his back greatly increased his strength. In front of people all over the world, he continued to kill
He killed many masters who came to stop him, and almost dyed the entire sky with blood. Icarus used this massacre to recreate the glory of the Feathered Tribe when they dominated the sky!"
"But this is just the final glory!" The old man sighed slightly, "After Icarus killed many masters in a row, he couldn't help but become proud and flew higher, wanting to absorb the sunlight faster and improve his strength.
However, the feathers on his wings were sealed together with wax. Because he flew too high, the sealing wax was eventually melted by the hot sunlight, and most of the feathers fell off. The pair of god-like wings quickly began to
Damaged! But those enemies seized the opportunity to besiege him. Icarus managed to kill all the enemies who besieged him, but he was also fatally injured. The wings were finally completely damaged, unable to keep him flying.
.In the end, he fell into an ocean and was drowned. The great Icarus, just like the reflection of light before the death of the feathered people, brought hope to our tribe, but quickly fell. The irony is,
He was not defeated by his enemy, but by the sun he believed in!"
The old man shook his head and said with emotion: "Later, the Feathered People went through a lot of hard work and finally found the body of Icarus and buried him. But only more than 5,000 pieces of the damaged wings were left.
The feathers of Johns lost their brilliance and lost any power. The other feathers fell off and floated away! From then on, no one in the Feather Tribe could repair those wings. Later, they were taken away by the ancestors of our tribe.
, and finally hid in this isolated place."
"Are these the same pair of wings from back then?" Huang Yi couldn't help but sigh, and reached out to rub the wings on the wall. Unexpectedly, these wings hidden in the dark cellar once had such an epic story.
"Yes! These wings are broken, and the remaining Johns Feathers have no power, but as long as you can repair them, they will definitely be a pair of god-like wings!" (To be completed.)
