Act Twenty-Three: The Burning of the Fire
Use yourself as firewood and burn fire. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
From Claire's mouth, such words came out, which made Rosen's heart sink.
He didn't know exactly what the so-called "self-firewood" was, but seeing the current posture of the former Sage, Cronor Elis of the Wings of the Firmament, Rosen could probably guess what was going on.
"The furnace of the primordial fire was created by the goddess when she created the world, and from here the first flame of the world was born, and this flame dispelled the fog that enveloped the world and brought everything into the era of order. ”
Claire said slowly, unhurriedly.
After that, the goddess established the order, distinguishing the various planes, and the furnace of the primordial fire existed as a relic of guarding the elemental realm. ”
"Then the fire ...... here"
Rosen glanced at the embers that had been reduced from the remains of the Sage, and the faint spark seemed to be extinguished at any moment.
"This furnace, fueled by the soul, wants to perpetuate it, there are two ways. ”
Before Claire could speak, Rosen probably already knew what the two methods were.
"One is to infuse a large number of souls into it to keep it alive, and the other is to infuse an exceptionally powerful soul. ”
Undoubtedly, the second one they chose.
The first method was undoubtedly too cruel, and Rosen didn't think the Sages would choose it.
And if you choose the second option, you have to sacrifice a soul that is strong enough.
The soul of a saint.
"If there were no accidents, Crowno's soul could continue to burn for at least a thousand years, but now, Chaos' actions have caused these accidents. ”
Claire shook her head.
"So now ......"
Rosen thought of the reason why the other party wanted to come by himself, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
Do you really want to burn yourself?
Claire, however, spoke something that Lawson didn't expect.
"Listen, Rosen, you have to save the others. ”
Claire said, her eyes filled with focus and seriousness.
"You have inherited the power of Greysius, and you must find other Sages. ”
Rosen didn't respond, he was silent.
"The counter-offensive of the forces of chaos is not an accident, they must have gained something, something enough to break the seal, if they can't organize the power to resist before then, then the world will once again be in endless war. ”
Claire continued.
"And you, on the other hand, are the only ones who can awaken the Sage. ”
"Wait a minute, why me, obviously there are more and stronger people in this world, they are even on the verge of breaking through, and they are about to enter the ladder of the sage, if they really want to fight against Chaos, their appeal should be stronger, right? ”
Rosen is confused by this sudden responsibility, he has been only trying to stay alive to get stronger, but now he is suddenly told to save the world.
Is there really a sense of appointment?
"The little people make history because they don't have a choice. ”
Claire didn't answer Rosen's question, but said something that puzzled him.
Then, raising her hand, she tapped it on Rosen's head.
Countless images poured into Rosen's mind.
First of all, a young silver dragon, because its body was too weak, not even scales and was disliked by his parents, but in the process of flying alone, he fell because he couldn't control his body.
Then there is a farmer boy who, after a hard day of work in a wheat field, discovers that his backyard has been destroyed by a huge beast.
The beast was silvery-white, with beautiful wings, and red eyes that were glowing with vigilance, but soon it collapsed from exhaustion.
What followed was a journey full of ups and downs, and one person and one dragon finally understood each other and became partners who depended on each other after going through difficulties.
But it was at this time that the forces of chaos invaded.
It was not a catastrophe caused by the simple creation and projection of chaos now, but the direct descendation of the real people of chaos to the main material plane.
Countless lives evaporated in an instant, thousand-year-old kingdoms disappeared from the map overnight, continents fell apart, and civilizations crumbled.
And the boy, together with the silver dragon, originally picked up weapons only because his village was attacked by the chaos creation, but after fighting all the way, he actually stood in front of the army of order.
They call him the Sage, the chosen one under the grace of the Goddess, who can lead the side of Order to defeat the forces of Chaos.
But for him and Yinlong, what they miss the most is still the sunset they saw by the wheat field.
Then, suddenly, the war was won.
The seven Chaos Citizens were all sealed, and the Seven Sages were unscathed.
While everyone was celebrating their victory, the boy sensed a change in the elemental realm.
Another adventure, he and the silver dragon finally put everything here to rest, but they had to pay the price of one life.
As firewood, burn your soul forever.
In the end, the boy chose to dedicate his life, and the silver dragon made a vow to turn himself into a ghost and protect this land forever.
Rosen came back to his senses and found Claire standing in the middle of the fire.
Standing on top of that mass of embers.
"It's our destiny to pass on the fire. ”
She said, smiling.
It was the most beautiful smile Rosen had ever seen.
Then, Claire threw out a ring.
Rosen took it and found that it was a dark gold ring with a dragon carved on the surface.
"From now on, you are the king of the ashes, and I hope you will lead them to fulfill the ancient covenant and return to the earth. ”
"Wait......"
Rosen wanted to say something, but a flame was already burning around Claire.
Unlike the faint flames in the embers, this is a bright and dazzling flame that is difficult to hide.
"It's just a prelude to the battle, and the battle will be tougher, but if you don't give up hope, you will win in the end. ”
Claire's words faded away, and she was hidden in the scorching flames, never to be found.
The dimly lit furnace suddenly brightened, and a pillar of fire stretched upwards from where Claire was.
From the outside, the top of Andariel could be seen rekindling a red flame, illuminating the surrounding area and lighting up the hazy sky.
Hum -
The pillar of light broke through the clouds directly and reached the canopy.
With this as the center, the fluctuations of power spread out one after another, spreading to the entire Scorching Plains, the entire Elemental Realm.
Through the clouds, you can see that in the sky, huge gears are emerging, countless laws are intertwined, and the world strings outline a huge magic array, shining brightly.
At this moment, all the creatures in the elemental realm without exception felt a throbbing.
The fire was lit again.
