Brando estimated his location and realized that he should be in the latter half of the valley. The secret door of the Perkin Sanctum was at the entrance of the valley, which was at least two to three miles away from here. He did not know where the battle took place in the valley, but it should not be too far away. He used the communication crystal to contact Chen Yushan, but there was no reply. He felt a little uneasy, so he contacted Metisha. This time, the call went through. Brando heaved a sigh of relief. He listened to the static on the other side of the crystal, and then Metisha told him in a weak voice, "She is fine. Andrique and her brother are also here. Hipamira is still unconscious, but something happened to Madam Maynild." Brando's heart skipped a beat, and he asked what the problem was. Metisha panted slightly and said, "I'm not sure what happened, but it seems like Madam Maynild is wrapped in a cocoon."
Cocoon? Brando was stunned. He heard Metisha trying to suppress the pain in her voice, and he knew that she was seriously injured. He quickly comforted the Silver Elf Princess and asked her not to move, and said that he would be there soon. Metisha was as docile and obedient as usual. She listened to him and handed the communication crystal in her hand to Andrique. Brando then asked where they were, but the Vampire Princess was as impatient as usual. She told him that she saw him fall in the southwest direction, and that it should not be far away. Brando heard this and looked up at the valley. He realized that the place where he fought with Bai was in the middle of the valley.
This meant that the Holy Cellar that was used to seal the entire valley, and there was an entrance at each end. Bai and the others entered from the other end.
Brando asked Andrique to take care of the wounded, and asked a few more questions about Bai. In the end, he got the answer that Bai fell with him. He was slightly stunned and realized that the woman might have really died. He could not help but worry about Metisha's current situation. He put away the communication crystal, knowing that worrying was useless. The most important thing now was to meet up with Metisha and the others. He thought for a moment and decided to move along the stream. The terrain here was gradually lower, and the valley extended downward. After passing through the lush greenery, the stream would inevitably flow to the middle of the valley, so he did not have to worry about going the wrong way.
He trod on the rocks beside the stream, and Archbishop Sidney followed at a distance of ten metres or so without saying a word. Brando looked back at the woman and suddenly felt a little awkward. After all, she was one of the real high-ranking members of the Holy Cathedral of Fire. She had always been above everyone else, and he did not dare to treat her as a follower. He thought for a moment and decided to find a topic to talk about, so he stopped and asked, "Ms. Sidney, take this opportunity to tell me about Orderfis. Although I have heard of the name of this sword in Erouine, that's all."
Sidney nodded and moved closer to him. She thought for a moment and said, "Everyone knows that Orderfis is the sword of the Flame King. A thousand years ago, the various races that were oppressed by the Miirnas fled from the Mardos Empire from Gonciato and went into exile on the great plains. They saw a meteor fall from the sky in the wilderness. At the place where the meteor fell, a golden sacred sword was burning in the fire. That is the sacred sword Orderfis. This is the most popular legend about the Flame Blade."
Brando nodded. He had also heard of this legend in The Amber Sword. It was basically a bedtime story that everyone in Cruz knew, and it was also widely spread in Erouine. However, he had also heard different versions of the story from Bosley, the master craftsman of Abies, and Saint-ausol himself. The latter two versions were much more reliable than this widespread folk legend, but this time he did not really intend to discuss the story behind it with Sidney, so he was a good listener and did not take the initiative to speak.
"But in fact, Orderfis is a scepter. This scepter is divided into three parts, and the Flame Blade is just one of them."
"Divided into three parts?"
"There is also a saying that it is divided into four parts. This saying is not completely correct because the Flame Orb and the Flame Blade are one. The Flame Blade is forged with the power of the Flame Orb. Without the power of the Flame Orb, the Flame Blade is incomplete —"
Brando suddenly interrupted this sentence. "Wait, what did you say?"
"I said that without the power of the Flame Orb, the Flame Blade is incomplete, just like what you see now, Your Excellency."
"No, I meant the previous sentence."
Sidney was stunned. "The Flame Blade is forged with the power of the Flame Orb …"
"No, even more than that."
"The Flame Orb and the Flame Blade are one?"
"You mean the Flame Orb?"
"Yes," Sidney looked at him and nodded solemnly: "The power that is nurtured in the Flame Orb is the sword spirit of Orderfis."
Brando's expression was a little interesting. He asked: "I heard that there are Orbs of Darkness and Orbs of Ice in this world. Is there any connection between them and the Flame Orb?"
Sidney's platinum eyes flashed with a hint of doubt. She probably did not expect Brando to ask this question. She thought for a moment and nodded seriously: "There is indeed such a legend. I heard that Your Excellency's sword is the Halran Gaia in the Sacred Stone Hall. Is that true?"
"There is such a thing, but I lost the sword earlier. I have to go and get it back later." Brando replied that there was a rumor about the sword. It said that the Golden Mane Lionmane Beastmen launched an attack on the human world in advance to ask for the sword in his hand back. This rumor once made him extremely uneasy, thinking that he had shaken the world in advance. Of course, now it was proven that the interests involved in the Holy War of the Earth Temple were far more complicated than the bizarre rumors in the countryside. But compared to that, Brando felt that the first ending was better.
"The Halran Gaia in Your Excellency's hand should be after it was damaged, right?" Sidney asked.
Brando nodded again. Then again, if he had the original Halran Gaia in his hand, his life would be even more difficult than now. It was a sacred object that was not inferior to the Azure Lance. It was even a level higher than the Mountains and Rivers. After all, it was a sacred object that symbolized the earth, just like how the Flame Blade Orderfis was the ultimate artifact of the fire element treasure, symbolizing the supreme order of the fire element world.
Wait a minute — Brando vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped something.
Sidney looked at his expression and knew that he had guessed it, so he replied, "The situation of Halran Gaia is somewhat similar to that of Orderfis. It had been divided into three before it was lost. The Halran Gaia was taken away by a dwarf clan, and the power of the Orb of the Earth was sleeping in the part of the scepter. Because the scepter was taken away by Ko Hua in the Twilight Battle, this sacred object is equivalent to being useless. The situation of Orderfis is the opposite. The power of the Orb of the Flame is in the part of the sword, and the scepter part has long been lost. The Orb of the Ice was used by Seibers to forge the Frost Chant Cinna, but this sacred sword was also damaged in the War of the Holy Saints — "
Holy crap, Brando thought to himself. Could it be that he was really the legendary King of Junk? Not to mention Orderfis and the Halran Gaia, even the Frost Chant Cinna seemed to be in his hands. Not only that, but they were all f * cking broken. The King of Junk, Brando — Brando felt that if he was still in The Amber Sword, he would definitely be crowned with this title by the system. It was well known that the system had no integrity at all when it rewarded players with titles back then. Rogo, the Rat Bane, was obtained by a player who killed a few more rats while farming plague rats to level up. The key point was that there were several upgraded versions of this title — Doom of the Rats, Destroyer of the Sewers, it was simply too painful to listen to.
Brando hurriedly opened his character menu and glanced at it, fearing that a title such as King of Junk, Lord of Scavengers would suddenly appear. Fortunately, this inexplicable system did not seem to intend to play a joke on him. While he breathed a sigh of relief, he cautiously decided not to mention it. Orderfis and Halran Gaia had already been exposed, but with the addition of the Mountain's Kin and the Frost Chant Cinna, it was a little too big of a target. It made him feel like he was a moving treasure trove.
Sydney did not notice his mental activity and continued, "The Orb of Light is sleeping in the Divine Power of Oramisol. As for the Orb of Darkness, it appeared in Cruz hundreds of years ago, but then disappeared. No one has ever seen the Orb of Wind. And legend has it that there is a Natural Orb, which is said to be sleeping under the Ring of the World, but has never appeared in the world. These seven orbs are in fact the cornerstones of the Seven Elemental Order, symbolizing the supreme power of the elements in a world. Most of them are tokens of the various Elemental Gods, such as Halran Gaia and Orderfis. "
"I see."
Brando suddenly realized that the Orb of Light was in the Divine Power of Oramisol. He had a hunch in his heart that among the four artifacts that the Flame King and the others took out from the Four Holy Valley (Valley of the Four Sages), the other two should be more or less related to the other two Elemental Orbs. Since the Sacred Artifacts of Fire and Earth were scepters, perhaps the Sacred Mark of Azure and the Sacred Mark of Wind were also part of the Scepter of Nature and the Scepter of Wind.
He then asked about the details of the other three Sacred Artifacts that were taken out from the Valley of the Four Sages. This part of the history was actually related to the history of the Holy Cathedral of Fire. When talking about the history of the Holy Cathedral of Fire, Sydney's serious face lit up. Although her expression was still serious, her narration became much smoother. She said that the people who left the Mardos Empire were not actually resisting oppression or escaping tyranny, but were criminals who were exiled by the Miirnas. She also cited the description of the Mardos Empire by the Scholastic Master Roentgen Dever in the Millennium Chronicle in 1666 as an example to prove that the laws of the Mardos Empire were harsh. At that time, there were many kinds of banishment, and often the whole family was implicated and exiled to the glaciers or plains.
The Flame King was the second generation born among the refugees. When he came of age, he happened to experience the incident described in the history books where he saw a meteor fall in the wilderness. Sydney said that the incident of seeing a meteor fall in the wilderness was recorded in many historical documents. She gave the most authoritative example — the astronomical record of the Empire's astrologers recorded in the Year of the Dragon's Fear. The record described that the night was as bright as day, and there were stars in a ring, falling from the west to the east through the Lyra Galaxy. The Lyra Galaxy was in the east of today's Wilderness of the Four Territories, and it was said that this astronomical record matched the descriptions of some later records of people who had experienced it.
Sidney was, after all, an archbishop. She could recite the history of the church like the back of her hand. There was no need for her to think about it. It was as if she had experienced it herself. The vast sea of scriptures was stored in her heart, and she could use them at will. As she talked to Brando about the history of the Holy Cathedral of Fire, the gap between the two was finally reduced. They were no longer as silent as before, but Brando always felt that he had a teacher who spoke and acted like the holy statues in the Holy Cathedral. As Sydney narrated the history of the Holy Cathedral, she would occasionally insert the reasons and doctrines for the establishment of the Holy Cathedral. The reasons were self-evident, but Brando was not interested in these at all. He was thinking about the previous conversation.
If the power in the Black Pearl was actually the blood of the God of Darkness, then could the power sleeping in the other pearls also be the blood of the God of Darkness? If so, then where did this pure blood of the Elemental God come from, and for what purpose was it created? Was it from the hands of the cultists, or was it the legacy of the Gods?
Once this thought was born, it could not be stopped and spread endlessly in Brando's mind.
"Of these four sacred objects, Oderfeiss was obtained by the late King Gretel, the Azure Sky was obtained by Ellanta, the Sacred Wind Empress was obtained by Delut Saint-ausol, and the Olamisor was obtained by Alberta Fanzin. Of the four, the first two were the leaders of the refugees. The late King Gretel was a human, and Ellanta had half the blood of the Silver Elves. The last two were of noble birth and was the daughter of a noble of the Mist Elves, and the other was also the son of a noble of the Inir …" When Sydney finally talked about the four sages obtaining the four sacred objects from the Four Holy Valley, Brando finally saw Metisha resting in the forest in front of him.
"My Lord!" Metisha also noticed them at the first moment.
Brando turned back and looked at Sydney apologetically. This archbishop had a good temper. Although he always had a straight face, he did not mind and nodded at him. Brando hurried to Metisha's side. The Silver Elf princess was somewhat agitated and tried to stand up, but because of her severe injuries, she gave up. Brando pressed the little girl's shoulder and took out a bottle of holy water to feed her. At this time, Andrique and Mephistopheles came out from behind the forest. The female vampire was also badly injured, but vampires were born with strong recovery abilities. At this time, other than the tattered armor, there were no visible wounds on her body, but her originally pale face was now as white as a sheet of paper.
As Brando had already introduced Sydney and what happened over there through the messaging crystal, he was not completely a stranger at this time. Brando introduced his subordinates one by one to the archbishop. When he introduced the two vampire siblings, he hesitated for a moment, but still said it bluntly. Sydney had already known that this was a pair of vampire sisters, but he did not say much. He only gave them an extra glance.
"Where is Miss Maynild?" Brando asked again.
"In the back." Mephistopheles replied weakly.
The cute boy saw Brando and smiled a little embarrassedly. Because he was injured, he had to drink his master's blood to recover. Brendel nodded at him, not minding his actions at all. In fact, he was quite touched when he rushed over to the Holy Cellar without a care for his own safety.
"I want one too." Andrique also asked.
"Why, you are not injured." Brando asked in a bad mood. Did she really think that he was dessert after a meal?
In the end, Andrique took out a dagger from nowhere and cut a cut about half a millimeter wide on her finger. Then she looked up at him with blood-red eyes.
