Santana Chapter 29 Mystery Scroll
In the center of the Imperial Palace of the Caesar Empire, a large and majestic temple stands majestically, and the golden roof sparkles in the sunlight.
The royal guards around the palace all stood straight, one person in ten steps, one post in five steps, and the guards were very tight.
A figure in the distance hurriedly walked over, stopped at the gate of the hall, and after saying something to the guard of the foreman, someone immediately went in to pass the word, and the person who came stood respectfully at the door and waited.
After a while, the visitor was invited into the temple and into the inner chamber.
An old man with a haggard face was already waiting here, waved his hand, stepped back to the left and right, and said, "Barrett, what happened, tell me quickly." ”
After the name 'Barrett' was called, the identity of the person who came was already clear, it was His Royal Highness the Great Prince, whom Cohen had just met, and after inspecting the scene, he immediately rushed to report the situation to Caesar VII.
"Father, someone sneaked into the palace and tried to snatch the sword from the stone platform. ”
"Who?" Caesar VII's face turned serious when he heard that the palace had been broken into.
"It's the Howling Moon Twin Wolves. ”
"Aren't they dead? What are they going to do with the sword on the stone platform?"
"Eight years ago, my father sent people to surround and suppress the Howling Moon Twin Wolves, but they did not die, they took refuge in the Blood Hades Temple and became Nightcrawlers. ”
"Alas......" Caesar VII said after a long sigh, "Since the Great War of Gods and Demons, the Blood Hades Temple has been looking for this sword, and they have finally found it. ”
Kaisan VII continued: "Fortunately, the Hurricane Knight Alvert has been arranged to stay there a long time ago, and it should be fine. ”
Seeing that his father was so confident in himself, the eldest prince Barrett didn't want to tell him the real situation, and said in a snort: "Hurricane Rider him...... He ......"
"What's wrong with him?" Caesar VII hurriedly asked, sensing that something was wrong.
Barrett gritted his teeth and said, "He's missing." ”
Caesar VII asked again, "Is the sword still there?"
"It's gone, and when we get to the scene, Celalia and the Hurricane Knight are gone, only Paralia's body and Cohen are lying on the ground. ”
"Cohen, that Cohen?"
"It was Cohen who saved Novia at the summit of Crome Peak. ”
"Why is he there?"
At Caesar VII's inquiry, Grand Prince Barrett repeated Cohen's words.
After listening to the Grand Prince's narration, Caesar VII touched his chin and said, "Do you think what Cohen said is true or false?"
"Judging by Cohen's performance, it doesn't look like a fake. The eldest prince truthfully expressed his thoughts, and said, "I have locked him up, and I will continue to interrogate him." ”
Caesar VII got up from his chair, paced from side to side, walked about, looked a little uneasy, and after a long time said, "Tell me what you think about it. ”
"I think it was Celaria who took the sword, and Alvert, after his body recovered, went after Celalia. ”
Caesar VII nodded and said, "That makes sense. ”
"Father, there's a question I've always wanted to ask, is there anything special about this sword? You attach so much importance to it that you sent Hurricane Knight Alvert to guard it. ”
Caesar VII solemnly looked at the eldest prince Barrett and said, "This sword is the sword of Caesar I, the founding emperor of Caesar's empire. ”
The eldest prince Barrett was stunned, and his expression became solemn.
No wonder the palace where this sword is stored is so well guarded.
There is no need to say much about the royal guards outside the palace, just talking about the three doors after entering the palace, each door is a guard, there are eight fifth-level demonic beast guards behind the door on the left, and there is a mysterious gold puppet in the middle door, whose strength is comparable to that of a knight-level warrior, and in the door on the right is the space magic array.
In addition to these, there is also the town of Hurricane Knight Alvert, I am afraid that there are few places in the entire Holy Light Continent that are more tightly defended than this.
But what does the Blood Temple want Caesar I's sword for?
Barrett was a little puzzled, and asked Caesar I the doubts in his heart.
"If you know a name for this sword, you know why the Blood Hades Temple wants this sword. ”
"What's the name?"
"Sword of Killing. ”
Hearing this name, Barrett's body suddenly cooled, and he said secretly: "It turns out that this sword is actually the legendary and famous Blood Hades Temple Divine Soldier 'Killing Sword'." ”
Legend has it that during the war between gods and demons, countless creatures of all races died under this sword, and even many of the strong people of the gods fell under this sword.
But after the end of the war between gods and demons, this sword lost its trace, and it is rumored that when the demons were defeated and returned to the underworld, they took this sword away, but they didn't expect it to be left here, and under the toss, it was actually in the palace of the Caesar Empire.
Caesar VII continued: "The sword of slaughter was infinitely powerful, and Caesar I was greatly strengthened, which made the Caesar Empire what it is today. ”
"No wonder this sword is hidden in this deep palace," Barrett said.
If people know that Caesar I's sword is actually a demon divine weapon, it will have a great impact on the honor of the empire, and naturally this sword can no longer appear on the Holy Light Continent.
Barrett understood the particularity of this matter, and said: "Therefore, the matter of this sword cannot be investigated in a big way, but can only be investigated secretly." ”
"Yes, especially after the Nightkin appears on Cromme Peak, the Holy See of Light will definitely send a judge to come, and you must not let them know about it. ”
"Yes, father, there must be a secret investigation. ”
Barrett scratched his head and said to himself: Things are not easy to change.
Originally, the Temple of Light, as the messenger of the gods on the Holy Light Continent, had always restrained the existence of the Dark Temple, and it would definitely be better to have them to work together to deal with the Nightcrawlers.
Now that the 'Sword of Killing' is involved, it has made things even more troublesome, if they know that this sword is hidden in the Imperial Palace, and use the Bright Holy See to deal with the demon heresy, the Caesar Empire will definitely be punished.
Thinking of this, Barrett said: "Then I will go and block the news of this matter now, and track down the whereabouts of Serralia and Alvert." ”
"There's one more thing, you can do it for me. With that, Caesar VII took out a magic scroll from the cabinet and handed it to Barrett.
Caesar VII continued: "Take this scroll to the stone platform where the 'Sword of Killing' is stored and open it. ”
I don't know what kind of material the scroll is made of, but looking at the craftsmanship of the production, it should be an old thing, and at the bottom of the scroll, there are three small words written 'Watchman'.
"What is this?" Barrett asked curiously.
"I don't know, this one has been passed down through the generations, I just say that if anything happens to the 'Sword of Killing', open this scroll. ”
