The embers of the first fire, which are the ashes of the holy flame from the Great Sanctuary above Arashigaoka Ramirez, are the fires produced and distributed by the Sanctuary during the Holy War thousands of years ago, a total of 472, of which one-third has been lost in the wars of the past years, and the remaining one-third is mostly left in the sanctuaries in various places to stabilize order.

As for the last third, it is in the hands of a variety of people, occasionally seen at underground auctions in the major provinces, but more often it is hidden in the home and enshrined as a family heirloom.

The legend of the First Fire is a spark left by the goddess when she opened up the world, and it is also the foundation of the Templar's foothold, and the power of order and law contained in the embers of the First Fire is extremely powerful, and if fully ignited, it is enough to open up a civilized place in the wasteland that is several times larger than that of Bunajien, such a thing is naturally invaluable.

"This is the ember of the first fire given by the Ulysses family by the Holy Church four hundred years ago, and it has already imprinted the blood of the Ulysses family in it, and if you leave Miss Grandia, it will be extinguished in less than a quarter of an hour, so please protect the eldest lady. ”

Karn returned the embers of the First Fire to Grantia, and saw the expressions on the faces of several mercenaries, and said in a flat tone.

The meaning of this is self-evident, if you have bad intentions towards this ember of the first fire and try to usurp it, then even if you get it in your hands, this fire will quickly fail, which is to warn all mercenaries not to think too much.

"Don't worry, Lord Karn, we will take good care of Miss Grandia. ”

Nedland said, pulling a crimson crystal from his belt bag.

After a slight trigger, the crystal also emitted a faint glow, enveloping the Netherlands.

"That's the rain thing, little brother. ”

Lena smiled and pulled out a crystal, but unlike the Netherlands, she had a verdant teal.

"Micro Fire Crystal, an inferior imitation of the Ember of the First Fire, produced by the Royal Alchemist Society, three gold coins each, can stabilize the law a little after activation, although the scope of influence is only one person, but it is just right for us mercenaries. ”

Rosen nodded, he felt that the crystal contained the power of order as well, but it was much weaker than the real thing that glittered in Karn's hand, like a candle compared to the sun.

At this time, Rosen actually has to thank the undead for being hostile to humans, but after all, they are still teammates on the side of order, otherwise when the embers of the fire were ignited, Rosen would have been wiped out long ago, and there would not be even a little residue left.

He saw that several other mercenaries also took out their own micro-fire crystals, the crystals in their hands were different in color and shape, but all of them had the function of stabilizing the law.

"Little brother, do you want to buy one, I happen to have a spare, but the price, of course, is higher than the market price. ”

Lena patted her waistpack and made a subtle clang.

Lawson hesitated, although it seemed that he would not need this thing if he followed the carriage all the way, but his task was to find a cemetery, and it was inevitable that when he acted alone, it would not seem like a loss to buy one.

took out four gold coins from the money bag and threw them to Lena, and after watching the other party accept them with joy, Rosen took out another microfire crystal from his backpack and handed it to Rosen.

This is a pale blue micro-fire crystal, the center of the hexagonal prism crystal is a solidified flame, which is quite similar to the embers of the initial fire.

【Micro Fire Crystal】

【Excellent】

[Inferior imitation of the Primordial Fire]

[The Royal Alchemist Society of the Republic of Charandel is committed to exploring the truth of the world, and they made this thing by imitating the Primordial Fire, originally to find the mystery of creation, but they did not expect it to become a necessity that adventurers could not live without]

"The activation spell is 'flame', and the closing spell is 'ash', if this keeps burning, it can last for a month, quality assurance, welcome to come again!"

Lena said playfully, sticking out her tongue.

Rosen secretly recited the incantation, the micro fire crystal was immediately lit up, and the solidified flame burned again, and Rosen clearly felt that the laws around him were once again stabilized, and there was no difference from the original.

"Hmph, mercenary guy and reckless newcomer. ”

The gray-eyed man Callock said that he was older and looked down on Lena and Rosen from outsiders, and although his whispers were drowned out by the sound of rain, they were clear in the ears of the black iron steps.

"I'm just kindly helping this Mr. Rosen, and of course it makes sense to get paid, but where is the mercenary?"

Feeling disgruntled, Lena glanced at Karlock.

"The guy who didn't even advance to the Black Iron Rank dared to enter the Eternal Night Forest, and I didn't have time to save you from the wolf's mouth while fighting the Winter Wolf. ”

"You!"

Karok seems to have been poked in the sore spot, his mercenary career for twenty years, he has long lost his original sharpness, and his actions are quite conservative, so he has been stagnant for many years at the peak of no position, and this time he entered the Eternal Night Forest, half of which is also to seek an opportunity to break through.

However, his biggest weakness was pointed out by Lena so bluntly, and at this time, Karlock's face turned blue and red, but he was powerless to refute.

Lina's strength at the recruitment venue is undoubtedly at the level of black iron, and as an alchemist, even if his skills are not as good as others, he can kill his opponent in ten thousand ways.

"Winter wolves are often seen in the Eternal Night Forest, so we need to be careful. ”

In the end, it was the Netherlands who intervened to change the subject, but the atmosphere between the two men was still unpleasant, and there was no communication in the team until they approached the edge of the forest.

"We're about to enter the Eternal Night Forest, everyone try to get as close as possible, although the Ember of the First Fire can kill and injure those chaotic monsters, but if these bastards are desperate to pull someone into the storm, then we can't stop it. ”

Karn reminded in a loud voice, and the moment he finished speaking, a dark purple thunderbolt flashed through the dark clouds, and then the thunder exploded, like the roar of a giant beast, and the guards in front of the carriage seemed to be unable to hold their weapons, and the formation was somewhat scattered.

"Cheer up, boys, this is a rare demon tide in ten years, you have experienced this experience, your strength can definitely rise, hehe, the premise is that you can come back alive." ”

Smiling, Karn spoke to the guards before leading the way into the realm of the Eternal Night Forest.

The carriage moved with it, and Rosen, at the end of the line, stepped forward into the raging storm.

The small rain suddenly increased, and the wind blew his cloak, hunting in the cold air current, and the heavy raindrops hit Lawson's visor, making a clanging sound, which was already a torrential rain weakened by the embers of the first fire and the faint fire crystal, but it was still like the bullets of the flintlock musket, which was terrifying.

The embers of the original bright and dazzling initial fire were also like a candle in the wind at this time, and the pillar of light that opened to the sky was faintly obscured by dark clouds, as if it was about to be extinguished in the next second, plunging the world into eternal dead silence.

However, in this frenzied rainstorm, even the will was about to be broken, Rosen saw in the distance, a dazzling green light stretched straight towards the sky, not fading in the wind and rain, like a bright light in endless despair, shining on the traveler's direction.

"That's ......"

Guessing a little, Lawson muttered in a low voice, but soon, Lena opened her mouth to give the answer.

"That's the Ultramarine Fortress, an iron wall that has stood for thousands of years in the Forest of Eternal Night. ”
