In the long history of Wohnde, there were definitely a few major events that were destined to shine like bright stars in the night sky. But among them, the most brilliant one was undoubtedly the legend of the Azure Knight who held a long spear and opened up the era of mortals.
In the epic of Cruz's creation, it was written as follows:
In the beginning, a world was born from a thought.
At the beginning of everything, the world was in chaos, surrounded by water and wind, fire and lightning. Then, creatures were born in the water and multiplied on the earth. They were also blessed by the wind and endowed with wisdom by the fire.
Martha said a name from her mouth — Nana Yinta. (1) Light, Darkness, Wind, Water, Fire, and Earth, the six elements surrounded this world. In the original rules, 14,000 Gods were formed to take charge of all of this.
It was done.
In the first era before the glory (2), the Gods built a kingdom on the earth surrounded by clouds and mist. The giant tower that reached the sky connected the mortals and the Gods' kingdom.
But then, everything was destroyed in the flames of war.
This was recorded in the Pale Poem. Players had speculated more than once that this war was a magnificent war between the Gods, the Golden Race, and the Twilight Dragon.
That was the history of Wohnde long ago. The opposition of all intelligent creatures and the Twilight Dragon seemed to have existed since the beginning of the era. After the collapse of the first era, the record of the Azure Knight appeared for the first time in history.
The epic wrote as follows:
The Azure Knight shouted to the mountains, "Mountains, I challenge you —"
The mountains responded to him. Let the ice and snow fall on his shoulders, let the cold wind make him unable to move forward, let the fog obscure his vision, and let the cold take away his right hand and eyes.
But the Azure Knight was destined to be the owner of the spear.
The hero stood on top of the mountains, firm and unwavering. Like this, a year passed, and another year passed.
The mountains whispered, "Look, this is the owner of the spear —"
They bowed down and called him King.
That spear shattered the sky, pierced the heart of the Twilight Dragon, caused the stars to fall to the ground, and thus started the second era of the era of mortals — the holy spear.
The holy spear, the sky. (3)
Everyone present was so familiar with this record, whether they were a human or an elf, a Knight or a princess, or even a witch. It was as if they had been told all this from the moment they were born. It was a history that everyone who lived on this continent was familiar with, whether it was a farmer in a remote place or a learned noble. Everyone knew about it.
That period of history was so far away from people that it was like a legend. However, it was true and credible, and the stars in the sky could testify to it.
The legendary Holy Sky Spear was nine feet long, its spear awl was like a shuttle, and its entire body was like jade. Hence, it was also known as the Azure Spear. After the fall of the Azure Knight and the Twilight Dragon, the Miirnas recovered the weapon from the plains east of present-day Cruz and Saint-ausol. They carved a motto on the blade of the spear: "The spear pierced the sky, and the stars fell to the ground —" in memory of the hero who saved the entire Wohnde.
And that gun was exactly the same as the one Brendel and the others were looking at right now. There was no difference.
"This … This is?" The Knight could not help but stare in shock.
No one was willing to believe that the legendary weapon would appear in front of them without any warning and caught them off guard. There was a widespread legend that mentioned that when the Darkness Dragon died, the Miirnas who followed him brought the Azure Spear into the depths of the glacier and buried it forever.
But what was going on with this scene in front of them?
Brando only felt a buzzing sound in his head. The most famous weapon in The Amber Sword was undoubtedly the Amber Sword that was rumored to be able to fight against the fate of all things and the world. However, the Holy Sky Spear and the Amber Sword were both weapons of the Azure Knight, and had also left an illustrious reputation in history.
In fact, when it came to the extent of the legend, the Azure Spear was far more famous than the Amber Sword. Even in Erouine, or Cruz, only a few people knew about the existence of the Amber Sword. These people were either aristocrats with a long history of family learning or knowledgeable scholars.
But the key was.
It was actually here.
Brando knew that the Holy Sky Spear had appeared more than once in the history of Wohnde, and there were even several huge scams that revolved around this famous gun. The reason was simple, because it had never appeared in history. From the fall of the Azure Knight to the collapse of the Darkness Dragon Odin's dark reign, it was as if it had disappeared from history and never appeared again.
For a weapon with such an illustrious reputation to be so silent, no matter how you looked at it, it was abnormal. And because of this, it had attracted the interest of the most players in history. Brando knew that many guilds were secretly looking for the whereabouts of the Azure Spear.
But it was actually here.
"… Could … Could it be a fake?" The eldest princess of Erouine had the highest status in this group and was the most knowledgeable. She was the first to react and asked with an uncertain tone.
This was also Brando's first reaction, but the reverberating pressure in the hall made it hard to believe that this was just a fake. More importantly, he first thought of the Witch Empress who was sleeping under Tónigel – could she have brought the Azure Spear here?
But why didn't she tell the Roman?
But he immediately rejected this conjecture, because the history of the ruins under Ampere Seale was obviously much older. In other words, the Azure Spear might have been sleeping in this place long before that.
But how could the witches' heritage be related to this place? Brando couldn't help but look back at Babasha, and the old witch herself had a look of disbelief on her face. "Maybe … Maybe the Darkness Dragon hid it here?" Babasha replied somewhat dryly in the telepathic communication.
But this statement didn't convince Brando, and he always felt that there was something wrong with it. Sure enough, the majestic power outside soon awakened Saint-ausol the Wind Empress. Saint-ausol just looked at the spear in the hall and couldn't help but let out a low cry, "Ah, you actually found the Azure Spear!"
But she immediately reacted and reprimanded, "Brando, this witch's words are impossible."
"Why?" Brando saw that the elf queen didn't throw a tantrum at the critical moment and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The Wind Empress snorted coldly, "The Amber Sword, the Azure Spear, if Odin had one of them, how could we win? Brando, you underestimate the power of the divine artifact. "
That's right. Brando then realized that the problem he felt was in this place. Whether it was the Azure Spear or the Amber Sword, they were both genuine divine artifacts.
The power of the divine artifacts in the world of Wohnde was extraordinary and had long been beyond the scope of mortal imagination. In a war on the scale of the War of the Holy Saints, hundreds and thousands of races were involved. At that time, the most powerful forces in the world gathered together, but the only divine artifact that appeared was the Blade of Fiery Flame.
The power of the divine artifacts could often change history, and they would only appear when history was about to undergo major changes. Just like the narration in the Pale Poem:
The former king obtained the sword on the plains, and then signed a sacred covenant with the intelligent creatures to resist the Darkness Dragon's rule on the earth.
That would be another legend.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid we have to take it down to distinguish its authenticity." At this time, Brando heard one of the Lantonilan Knight suggest.
He looked back and saw the princess frowning and asked, "Take it down, how do we take it down?"
Everyone was stunned by this question. Hanging in this hall was probably the most powerful sacred object since the first era. Its power could not only change the fate of a kingdom, but even the fate of the entire continent. But the question was, would there be no trap next to such a powerful divine artifact?
Or rather, not to mention that it was a trap, its own power was enough to turn those who harbored evil intentions into ashes. And who dared to say that they had no selfish motives and dared to go up and take the Spear of the Holy Saints? Or rather, who present thought that they were qualified to be compared to the Knight of the Azure Spear?
The Knight could not help but look at each other speechlessly, but Brando soon found that all eyes fell on him. The witches, the Knight, and even Her Highness Gryphine looked at him without saying anything, and the meaning contained in their gazes was obvious.
If fate had summoned everyone here, then the most qualified person here to pick up the spear was undoubtedly Brando.
But Brando secretly screamed in his heart, "Damn it." It was not that easy to pick up a divine artifact. It was fate, and the divine artifact recognized its master. It sounded very awesome, but in fact, most of the people who thought so ended up very miserable. If he was really Brando, maybe he would really be tempted, but half of his soul was first of all a player, and he knew very well what it was.
A real divine artifact.
The Holy Spear was eternal.
He hesitated for a moment, and carefully asked, "Your Highness, I know what you mean. But if we want to take down this Holy Spear, how long do you think it will take? "
The princess looked at him in confusion, "Can't we take it down?"
Brando suddenly realized that the princess seemed to know nothing about this matter. But then again, how could mortals have so many opportunities to learn about divine artifacts? Those things seemed to be illusory, unattainable existences.
He could only patiently explain, "More or less, first of all, the divine artifact itself has its own will. Secondly, this hall must be densely packed with traps, and collecting the divine artifact is an extremely dangerous and time-consuming thing, unless someone can resonate with it and make it automatically recognize its master. "
"Do we have so much time to waste?" Princess Gryphine could not help but frown. Hearing Brando say this, she seemed to have realized the problem. They did not seem to have so much time to waste in this place.
"I'm afraid not." Brando shook his head as expected.
The crux of the problem was not here. Obtaining the divine artifact was a very dangerous task, and if they succeeded in their gamble here, naturally all the problems would be solved. For a divine artifact like the Azure Spear, once its power was mastered, it would be a piece of cake to beat the demons and cavemen on the surface back to their homes.
But the problem was that if they failed, then Erouine would not have the chance to start over.
"Brendel, what about the Subterrane Dwellers outside?" She asked. "What about the Subterrane Dwellers outside?"
Brendel knew that she wanted to ask if the Subterrane Dwellers outside were also looking for this thing. He suddenly felt that it was very possible, but where did the demons get this information?
"Then is it safe to leave it here?" After thinking about it, although she was a little reluctant, the princess gritted her teeth and asked.
For this question, Brando could only look at Babasha.
The old witch was also uneasy in her heart, and to be honest, she was not sure. That was the Holy Spear of Heaven, a weapon that existed countless years ago in myths and legends that could defeat the Twilight Dragon. In that era, the Silver Races were only considered cannon fodder, and even earlier, the divine people still walked the earth.
But she still calmed down and nodded, "Sir, no one can come in here except us."
That was enough. Of all the people present, the one who could take things the most easily was Brando. As half a player, he could only see the Holy Spear of Heaven as a divine artifact with great power. But so what if it was a divine artifact, it was just a piece of equipment.
Of course, with that said, Brando was still a little worried. He could only turn his head and try not to look at the thing, and replied, "In that case, everyone should forget about this for the time being."
He gave the people present a stern look, especially the Knight of Lantonilan. He was not afraid that the Azure Spear would fall into the hands of the cavemen of Jorgendy Ridge. The divine artifacts had their own will and carried their own destiny, so how could they be easily lost? But if this news were to spread, Erouine would be in big trouble.
The Knight understood what Brando meant, and all of them swore not to spread the word. Brando listened to their vows for the time being, and he looked on coldly. After all, he had his own way to deal with all of this after everything had calmed down.
The means of the players were not something these guys could imagine.
So everyone left the hall one by one under Brando's lead, and everyone seemed a little distracted. The shock of the Azure Spear to them was really indescribable, and even Brando found it hard to understand the special feelings the natives had for that period of history.
It was like saying that those mythical characters he knew but did not believe suddenly appeared in front of him, telling him that everything in the past was real.
He could only vaguely see such a meaning from the thoughtful eyes of Her Royal Highness.
But just as he was about to leave the hall, he suddenly remembered something. As he knew, the power of the divine artifacts could often change history, and they would only appear when history was about to undergo major changes.
In the recent history, the Flame King obtained Oderfeiss on the plains, and then signed a sacred covenant with the intelligent creatures to resist the rule of the Darkness Dragon on the earth.
So what did the appearance of the Azure Spear in Erouine mean? At least he knew that the destiny of the Azure Spear — — was not to save this ancient kingdom.
Brando was horrified.
… …
However, just as Medusa Lysemeka did not know about the huge changes that were brewing under this huge port, Brando did not know what was happening on the ground.
The beautiful lady raised her head in the rain and saw a golden-red light floating in front of her and the Minotaur Lord, who was as dumb as an ox — no, an ox.
Her beautiful prismatic pupils reflected a magnificent red, and a huge door of light crossed half the sky, forming a giant flaming door with a diameter of dozens of meters in the pouring rain.
Then, a fiery red demon with three heads and a pair of huge fleshy wings on its back slowly walked out from behind the door. Even though the portal was so huge, the demon had to hunch its body and squeeze through the door. In fact, even so, its huge horns almost could not pass through.
Lysemeka looked at the behemoth carefully, and then respectfully greeted, "Dear Lord Mesika, you have finally arrived. Lord Valabar has been waiting for a long time. "
The huge demon looked at her, showing an expression that could hardly be called a smile, and replied gruffly, "What about the preparations of the bugs?"
"Of course, they are ready, my Lord."
… …
(1) Miirna language, Wohnde.
(2) It does not refer to the first or second era of the Cruz calendar, but the first era. According to the players' research, this era should be before the Chaos Era. And the beginning of the second era was the beginning of the Chaos Era.
