Chapter 636: Sword in the Thunderbolt Lake on a Sunny Day
The Lone Lamp Man shook his head: "Don't hold on, save some strength to deal with monsters." β
Ziyun was slightly embarrassed when he was called to break his defense: "It's rude, senior." β
Roger interjected and asked, "Mr. Lone Lamp, have you been hiding in the sewers of the royal capital?" He was not surprised that the Lone Lamp Man had such a move, they had been trying to destroy the royal family of Suran Island for hundreds of years. The secret passage of the royal capital, they will definitely explore it as well. Now Roger wants to know something else.
And the Lone Lamp Man already understood what he was thinking and said: "I do have a small stronghold here, but I don't live there permanently, and this time the monster is not there before, it should have come recently." I had just returned from the south, and it wasn't so lively before I left. β
Roger exclaimed, "You're coming back from the South?"
Because of tonight's secret operation, Roger did not bring the proud magic monk star, and the lone lamp man did not know that he was a student of the convent, and said directly: "Yes, I heard that the convent was destroyed by monsters, so I knew that the south was unstable again, so I went directly to the southern convent, but as soon as I got there, I learned that the abbot of the monastery, Timo, had received a summons and left, but I didn't meet it at all on the way." β
Roger shook his head: "This shouldn't be. "Sulan Island is not as rich as the Great Zhou Dynasty, knowing that something happened, the two sides will never take a long detour, if it is the fastest path, the two sides will inevitably meet.
The lone lamp man nodded and said: "Yes, I noticed that something was wrong, I was the only one who avoided them, and they would not avoid me. Finally, in a small col, I found the corpses of Dean Teemo and his party of eighteen people, all of them were dried by high temperatures, so there was neither the smell of blood nor the smell of rotting corpses. β
"And so it was. Roger said fiercely.
"Oh, it seems that you know some news, I hurried back to the royal capital, but I noticed that the whole atmosphere here was not quite right, and the royal family had exterminated several nobles like crazy, and they were all henchmen on the Grand Duke's side. Originally, the Lone Lantern Man wanted to explore the palace again, but the sewers seemed to be occupied by low-level monsters like crystal leeches, and it seemed that there was definitely a big problem in the royal capital or the palace: "What's the situation there? β
With a common enemy, there is no estrangement between Roger and the Lone Lamp, and now that the royal family is gone, the king and the little prince are dead, and Prince Sauron is nowhere to be found, there is no grudge between them.
After a brief understanding of what happened, several people came to a fairly clean passage, which was different from the darkness of other places, and the whole passage was very dazzling.
The lone lamp man said: "I have set up a magic circle here, it is not lethal, but it is enough for the crystal leeches who are afraid of light and heat. β
In the middle of the passage is a hut, or a small space that has been transformed, where many books and paper manuscripts are piled up, and the lone lamp man took out a box: "There are some wound medicines in here, you should also know them, treat them yourself." Ziyun saw that it was indeed a common medicine in Da Zhou.
The Lone Lamp Man continued, "Except for the unlucky prince, which means that the entire king is doomed to become a battlefield?"
"Yes. While the three little ones were healing, Roger told the Green Count the truth.
The Lone Lantern Man said: "Then where is the Bright Sword now? In the face of such a war, it is no longer possible to reverse it by a few people alone, and if you want to completely eliminate the monsters, you need the power of the Bright Sword." β
Ziyun said: "On the way here, someone took it away, the Grand Duke's people. β
The lone lamp man nodded: "The Bright Sword is the nemesis of monsters, the Green Earl will not be unaware, listening to your description just now, how can it seem that he doesn't care about this." β
Roger suddenly thought, "Is it because of his identity? He's not a pure monster?"
"Is this possible, do you know the Sword of Light?"
Faced with the Lone Lamp Man's question, even a knowledgeable local youth like Roger didn't know, let alone the three little ones, the Lone Lamp Man said: "Actually, the power of the Bright Sword is far more than that, and he still has some connection with Da Zhou." This is more than 400 years ago, and I believe that no one should know about it except for us Lone Lantern people on Sulan Island. β
Roger asked tentatively, "Is this related to the secret of the Lone Lamp Man?" This may explain the real reason why the Lone Lamp Man has been happy to oppose the royal family for hundreds of years, and the three little ones are interested in the relationship between the Bright Sword and the Great Zhou.
The Lone Lantern Man simply explained to them the origin of the monster, and only then did a few people understand that the monster was actually a defeated remnant from the Great Zhou. Even so, it swept almost the entire island of Suran.
Later, a visitor from the Great Zhou came to Sulan Island, a woman, who had a sword that could condense everything and freeze for thousands of miles. This master is very powerful, not only suppressing the attack of monsters, but also unfriendly to the inhabitants of Suran Island, but fortunately, due to her killing spree, the monsters and humans here have reached a delicate balance.
After a short stalemate of twenty years, another master came from the Great Zhou, who seemed to be chasing the former, and this person's weapon was a lightning bolt that could emit dazzling light and thunder.
It is not known what the feud between the two is, only that they fought fiercely, and in the end the woman died, and her sword, which could freeze everything, fell into the icy lake in the battle.
"Sword in the Lake!?" Roger exclaimed.
Sanxiao didn't know the legendary story of Sulan Island, and he didn't know anything about it, Ziyun asked, "Do you know it too?" Listening to this lonely lamp man, these should be secrets or something, Roger in front didn't know anything, but the sword in the lake was immediately understood.
Roger explains: " That's the case, the sword in the lake is an ancient legend here for us, under the ice lake there is a sword that is not inferior to the sword of light, as for the origin is also a variety of opinions, and said that it was left by the sages, some say that it is the product of the devil, for hundreds of years there are many genius swordsmen, including the royal family have gone to get the sword, down to the lake water is fine, but after a long time will emit cold air to freeze the whole lake, there is therefore the name of the ice lake, and then after three or five days will break the ice, as for the person who takes the sword can not get out under the frozen lake, either frozen to death or drownedγ β
The Lone Lamp Man said: "So in the past hundred years, fewer and fewer people have tried it until it is extinct, and the legend of that sword has gradually become a rumor of a curse, and everyone does not believe in the existence of that sword." Hearing this, Ji Ya seemed to think of something, raised her eyebrows, and the moat who gave her the medicine thought that it hurt her, and was about to ask, but Ji Ya said that it was okay and continued to listen to the lonely lamp man talk about the past.
Although he defeated his opponent, the man with the lightning was also seriously injured, and seemed to have become an ordinary person, living in seclusion to teach the children there, and everyone else called him a teacher, as for his grudge with the former, and the origin of his name was not revealed, his lightning was an extraordinary weapon, and it was also a magic weapon, called 'Thunderbolt on a Sunny Day'.
Later, the monsters were flooded again, and when everyone was about to flee, a young girl in the village stood up to resist the monsters. Even the teacher advised her that why should a girl fight, but the girl said directly, what does it have to do with men and women to defend their hometown?
The teacher was also moved, so he embedded his magic weapon 'Thunderbolt on the Sunny Day' in a long sword, and engraved the spell of subduing demons and the spell of increasing the amplification on the long sword. And this sword is now the Sword of Light.
The girl set off with the sword of light and a good heart to save the world. Helping the weak, making friends, and gaining the trust of many lords and their good followers, two years later, she organized a large army, at that time there was no unified kingdom in Suran Island, only a few families went their own way, but they all believed in this girl and worshiped her as the holy daughter of Suran Island.
At that time, today's royal family is only one of several big families, they formed an alliance with the Holy Maiden, chased and killed the monsters all the way to the mountains in the south, and almost killed them, and when the final attack on the monster dungeon, the ancestors of the royal family took the light sword in the battle, and united a group of magic monks to collapse the underground palace, the holy woman and countless heroes and those monsters were buried in the ground for a long time, and only two people escaped, that is, the later armored man and the lonely lamp man.
And the ancestor of the royal family became the hero of the whole country with the sword of light, and after pretending to remember his comrades, he launched the unification war of Sulan Island. And those magical monks also set up a monastery under the protection of the royal family.
Time has passed, except for the saint who was mentioned because of her great fame, the other heroes who fought for the country and the people have long been buried at the bottom of the unknown mountain, or by trusted partners from behind.
The Armored Man and the Lone Lamp Man recovered from their injuries, and they did find opportunities to take revenge several times, and they did add some losses to the royal family, but they have never been able to shake the rule of the royal family, and now the Armored Man has been destroyed, and there is only one Lone Lamp Man left, and he chose to cooperate with Grand Duke Wald, the reason is that in addition to revenge on the royal family, Wald is willing to justify those heroes.
After saying this, the lone lamp man looked at Roger: "The monsters, the royal family, and the abbey are all my enemies, but the monastery is better than the inheritance, not the hereditary." β
Roger understood what he meant, as long as it was against monsters, the Lone Lantern Man was willing to cooperate with any human, but his enemies were still the royal family that betrayed his companions and enjoyed the glory. As for the monastery, those parties have long since passed away, unlike the royal family's fathers and sons, and the descendants are different, the monastery is a teacher teaching students, and the generations are different, and the current magic hand monks should not pay off the debts of their predecessors, so the lonely lamp people don't care about the monastery.
