The Scarlet Battlefield was huge.
Judging from the number of skeletons here, there were more than a million dead.
"Were there more than a million people who participated in this battle?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.
"If you count all the units from both sides, there were indeed more than a million, but most of them weren't humans."
"Oh? Were there other races? "
"Magical beasts, dragons, elves, demons, and other races, as well as humanoids, all participated in the battle. There were only 120,000 Holy Crusaders among the humans."
"But there are more than 120,000 human skeletons here. Most of the skeletons here seem to be human."
"Most of the human skeletons here are actually an army of skeletons summoned by hundreds of necromancers. That battle should be the largest in the western spiritual world in the past thousand years."
"Didn't the eastern spiritual world participate?" Chen Zhao asked curiously. "The East and the West should have interacted with each other in that era, right?"
"Do you think the eastern spiritual world is peaceful?"
"Fine, every family has its own difficulties."
Chen Zhao shrugged. "How do we leave now?"
"If we go in this direction, we'll see a cave that leads to the surface. Along the way, there are 548 Holy Swords. They were collected from all over the world in that era. Almost every sword has the power to subdue demons and expel evil. They contain holy power. The 548 Holy Swords were set up to prevent the Scarlet Defilers from escaping," Indelia said. Delia said, "However, those five hundred and forty-eight Holy Swords can't distinguish between friend and foe. As long as a living creature approaches that place, it will be attacked by all the Holy Swords. That's our only way out, but if we go there, we'll definitely die."
Matthew turned to look at Indelia. "548 Holy Swords? The Holy Dynasty? "
"That's right. The 548 Holy Swords form the Holy Dynasty."
"What Holy Dynasty?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.
"The Holy Dynasty is actually the name of this magic array. This magic array also has another name, the 548 Legend. Legend has it that in the 3rd century AD, there was a dynasty called the Aduci Dynasty. The King of the Aduci Dynasty was cruel and heartless and disobeyed the will of God. So God sent 548 angels to destroy the Aduci Dynasty in one night. They transformed into 548 Holy Swords and forever guarded that land blessed by evil." Matthew said, "In fact, the truth is not that the angels descended, but that the church suppressed the Aduci Dynasty. They used 548 Legendaries, and after that war, they got a new name, the Holy Dynasty."
"In other words, if we want to leave this place and return to the surface, we have to pass through the 548th Legend? Pass through the magic array that can destroy an entire country? "
"You could say that," India said.
"Is there no other way?"
Matthew pondered for a while and said, "Maybe I can give it a try, but I'm not completely sure."
"Is there no other way out?"
If he didn't have to, he really didn't want to face these ancient nuclear weapons.
A magic array that could destroy an entire country.
No matter how small the country was, it was still a country.
Most importantly, Chen Zhao was in a very bad state right now.
"Oh … Speaking of which, you're also from the church. You should have a way to crack the 548th Legend, right?"
"I can't crack it." Matthew shook his head. "I don't have the ability to crack the magic array. What I can try now is to not be attacked by it."
The underground space was more than 10,000 square kilometers, almost the size of two large cities combined.
Because of the environment, they basically couldn't see the end.
The group walked for about two hours.
Chen Zhao finally saw the edge.
The wall before them was probably thousands of square kilometers in one direction.
At the bottom of the wall, they could see a huge cave.
"It's there," India said, pointing at the cave.
"I can feel that there's a holy aura hidden there," Matthew said.
"I can understand the Holy Dynasty, and I can also understand the number 548, but why is it called Legendary?"
"Every Holy Sword is a legend," Matthew said. "Every Holy Sword's owner has an illustrious and legendary past."
The moment they entered the cave, they saw countless skeletons of unusual creatures.
A silver sword was stabbed into the rock in the middle of the skeletons.
Even though it had been here for thousands of years, it was still eye-catching.
Everyone's first impression when they saw the silver sword was that it was a solemn elder.
It was stern and dignified, staring at the exit without a smile.
All living beings that approached this place were under its gaze.
The piles of skeletons around them had all died under the silver sword.
"Silver Dawn," Matthew whispered, his face full of reverence and seriousness.
"You know this sword?"
"In ancient times, before God revealed his divine might, everything in the world was in chaos. People shivered in the dark, and barbarism and death continued to spread and breed. A warrior forged a weapon for himself to split the chaos and slay the darkness. This warrior was the first Paladin, Anmas Tayfun, and the weapon he forged and wielded was the Silver Dawn."
"Really? It's a pretty sword," Chen Zhao commented.
But at that moment, Silver Daybreak suddenly flew out of the rock and stabbed at Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao immediately raised his palm to block.
Hiss —
Chen Zhao's palm was instantly pierced. The tip of the sword was only half an inch away from his forehead.
Chen Zhao's eyes widened, even though he was suppressing his power in his body.
Even though he was suppressing his power inside his body, his constitution wouldn't weaken because of this.
Not to mention cold weapons, even the most high-end firearms might not be able to hurt him.
But now, his palm was pierced by a sword.
However, the Silver Dawn was also stuck in the middle of Chen Zhao's palm, unable to move forward.
Chen Zhao didn't underestimate the magic formation, but he didn't pay much attention to one of the swords.
But now, his defense had been broken by a sword.
Matthew and the others were shocked too. They didn't know what to do.
On the other hand, Chen Zhao used his pierced hand to grab the sword hilt as a shield.
The Silver Dawn immediately tried to break free.
However, it clearly couldn't compete with Chen Zhao in terms of strength.
Chen Zhao grabbed it tightly. It was painful, but he didn't want the Silver Dawn to cut his palm open.
The two were in a contest of strength. The Silver Dawn clearly didn't want to give up.
Chen Zhao also didn't want to wait for death.
