Act XXI: The Secret of the Sage

The Oath of the Silverwing, Eustia Lost, was one of the original founders of the Templar along with Brunhill, but has always been an enigmatic being.

First of all, in most historical documents, Eustia Loset leaves few positive depictions of her, except that she is known to be a woman, and is more like a saint sitting in the rear than other sages who fought bravely on the front lines.

Secondly, the history books are also very secretive about the experience of this sage, and there is no mention of it, and naturally, there is no record of where she spent her last days.

Finally, among the information that Rosen obtained in Isrul, this Eustia is also the least documented, and there is no clear account of why he became a Sage and what battles he participated in as a Sage.

The reason why Rosen was able to recognize her was because of the faint power of order on the other party's body that only belonged to the Sage.

"She's Eustia Lose?"

Edlandall took two steps back, as if he couldn't believe that the legendary Sage was right in front of him.

Compared to Avinia, Eustia is more symbolic to Erandall in the Templar.

It's like a fairy tale I listened to as a child.

"Yes, it should be. ”

Rosen nodded, in this position, and with such an aura, there would be no one else except Eustia Lost, it seems that Velen did not deceive himself at that time.

Irandall looked at the sleeping girl again, as if he was afraid of waking her to sleep, and asked softly.

"Has she fallen?"

Rosen glanced at it, then replied in the affirmative.

Although it seemed as if she had just fallen into a deep sleep, in fact the power of order in her body had almost dissipated, and if it weren't for this crystal coffin, she would have dissipated into dust long ago. ”

His hand rested lightly on the crystal coffin, and he could feel a faint fluctuation of magic power coming from the crystal, which seemed to be a prop that could stagnate time and space to some extent, maybe it was some kind of holy relic.

"The reason that has survived to this day is probably to find a way to ask for the fate of the saint. ”

Rosen muttered to himself, the former sage used all kinds of methods to prolong life because of that inevitable fate, and even the existence of Brunhill who devoted himself to the people of chaos, and it was not clear what the will of the goddess represented.

He looked around, and the empty room was devoid of any funerary goods, the walls were only monotonous ornaments, and above the dome, the everlasting lamp was silently shining.

At this moment, Rosen felt a faint fluctuation of power from the crystal coffin.

The fluctuation was too weak, if it weren't for Rosen's extraordinary perception and his familiarity with the aura of the sages, then it was very likely that he would have ignored the "noise" that was caught in the power fluctuations of the crystal coffin itself.

Capturing the source, Rosen slowly mobilized the power of the law and amplified it.

The next moment, the crystal coffin burst into dazzling light.

In the midst of the light, a voice suddenly appeared.

It was very soft, like the murmuring of a stream, and it made you feel the sound of a quiet night in early summer.

"By the time you hear this, I should be dead. ”

However, the first sentence of the voice is such a word.

"Is this the voice of the Sage?"

Irandall asked, looking at Eustia, who seemed to be asleep, and then at Rosen.

Rosen didn't answer, and he didn't know.

However, it seems that the voice is only a recording of its existence, and it is impossible to interact with them, and it is unknown if Eustia did it on purpose or if it was due to some necessity.

Rosen believed that it would not be difficult to create a projection or preserve a memory if the Sage wanted to.

"My name is Eustia Lost, and the world calls me the Oath Bound of the Silver Wing, or the Sage as mortals call it, but as you can see, even a Sage who has stepped into the realm of the gods cannot escape the fate of death. ”

The voice said calmly, like a lake, undisturbed.

"To be able to find this place, it must be the same Holy Hall, the existence of the Holy One with a considerable origin, after all, I asked Logarius to use my last strength to apply the strongest seal, if it is not for the mastery of the Holy Person's inheritance and the blessing of the Holy Temple, I will not be able to enter this place. ”

Hearing this, Lawson and Irandall looked at each other, presumably the two of them had the inheritance of the Sage and the blessing of the Holy Temple, so that they could enter this secret room without effort, and both were indispensable.

At the same time, it can be heard from what she has just said that the remains in the hall above are indeed Bishop Logarius Hylar, and as for who is in the cemetery on the ground, it can only be found later.

"In that case, you are entitled to know the secrets of the Holy One and the Holy Church. ”

After a momentary pause, Eustia's voice rang out again.

"First of all, the so-called sages are actually more like some kind of defense mechanism in this world, when there is a crisis that is enough to destroy this world, then there will be people who are selected to give great power and exist as heroes to save the world, and when the crisis is resolved, these sages will be corrected by the will of the world and gradually pass away, this is what I have learned, the truth about the sages. ”

Rosen quickly understood what Eustia said, the Sage is like the white blood cells in the immune mechanism, which will be produced in large quantities when the world is invaded, and after the crisis is resolved, the excess white blood cells will naturally be wiped out so as not to affect other normal cells.

If the white blood cells persist for a long time and are too numerous, it will cause the number of other cells to decrease, and in a sense, the existence of the Holy One is a threat to the world in times of peace.

"Actually, this mechanic didn't exist from the beginning, and according to our research, there have been at least three Chaos people invasions in this world, each of which has brought civilization to near extinction, with only a few remnants remaining. And two of them were caused by the surviving sages. ”

Eustia's voice is as calm as water, slowly telling the secrets of this world.

"At the beginning, there was only one Chaos People, and the World Will created two Sages, and after sealing them, those two Sages eventually became the new Chaos People, which led to the second invasion, and in the second invasion, the World Will created four more Sages, and history went on and on, and after this invasion, the number of the Chaos People increased to seven. ”

Her clear voice echoed through the space, telling horrific truths.

"After the third invasion, the will of the world began to bind the Sages, and when they succeeded in defeating the Chaos People, all of them were wiped out, and without exception, their legends were not even passed on to the next civilization...... And the fourth Chaos Invasion is the one we are in. ”

Eustia's voice was a little sad, I don't know if it was because of the fate she already knew when she recorded the voice, or because she lamented the heroes who saved the world, but were erased by the world.
