Chapter 24: The Habsburg Secret

2 meters, 1.8 meters, 1.5 meters, 1 meter, 0.5 meters, 0.3 meters・・・・・

Just as the blade of the megatooth was getting closer and closer to Yakaret, about to cut through the trachea and arteries in the neck. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info A golden light and shadow dodged out from the left side, like a speeding motorcycle, volleying joyfully in the air, knocking down the man with a "meniscus hairstyle", the two hugged each other, rolled out more than ten meters away together, and the bodies of the two smashed on a rock, and then because of the severe pain, they finally let go and fell to the sides.

Chenxing: "I'm sorry, that enemy attack just now was too fierce!" I seem to have broken a few ribs, I'm late, sorry! ”

Chenxing spat a pool of red blood from the side of the rock, slowly got up, clutched his chest because of the pain, and replied tremblingly.

"Damn, it's you kid who gets in my way! If it weren't for that, that blow just now, Jakalet! I'm afraid you're already ・・・・・・ by now."

The man also awkwardly climbed up from the ground and picked up the fallen megatooth.

At this time, the middle-aged woman named Fei Xue, who was standing in the distance and confronting Ruhr Jones, saw this state and wanted to run to the rescue. However, he was once again blocked by Ruhr Jones.

Ruhr Jones: "Your opponent is me!" Wind Magic, Wind Dragon Technique"

The Dragon's Blaster is back on the attack! The speed of the storm dragon surpassed Fisher's speed, and smashed into the enemy with a parabolic motion like a surface-to-air missile, but was dodged by Fisher's dexterous left and right dodging movements.

Fei Xue: "It's another trick!" This trick doesn't seem to consume much mana, and it can be used many times in a row, but the power and speed, as well as the attack range, are very small, and they can't catch me! I just need to move a little bit like I do now, and I can dodge your moves.

Now, it's your turn to accept my magic, and look at my mysteries, wood magic, and Thorn Rain! ”

In an instant, Fisher condensed a ball of energy in her palm, then threw it into the air, exploding like a fireworks salute. After the explosion, the ice-colored streamer floats in the air, automatically drawing a colorful magic shape in a fixed mode similar to "computer programming".

Then, from the pattern, a thousand thorns were lowered, each of which had at least the length and thickness of a standard military spear. This terrifying density, extremely wide killing range, can be called terrifying.

Whether it is looking at it from afar, or the soldiers are approaching the city, the visual sensation caused by it can be described by the word "heavy rain"! It makes people feel a magnificent momentum.

Ruhr Jones: "Hmph, I see, it's really a domineering magic move!" However, you also miscalculated, those previous tricks are just my carving insect skills! Now, let me also use my mysteries!

Crimson Roar: Water Dragon Storm! ”

In an instant, a vortex of magical power similar to a tornado hurricane erupted from the crimson magic array in front of the palm, and in terms of physical appearance, it was dozens of times more than the previous moves! In terms of morphology, it is by no means a simple "dragon" shape, and it does not have a gorgeous biological appearance like modeling magic, but it is like a hurricane along the coast, rough, heroic, and spectacular! It has the majestic momentum of the pinnacle of nature's power.

The biggest mystery of the two, just like that, is bombarded together!

In just over ten seconds, the entire coastal forest was swept into the vortex of magic by a powerful rotating suction force from the outside in.

The water, the trees, the dirt, the dust, the sand, the pebbles, and so on along the shore are all torn to pieces, the birds are fleeing, the animals are running, and all the living plants and animals are doing their best to escape the fate of destruction.

At this moment, because the remnants of the magic power of the "Kirin's Fury" that Yacaret had previously cast were still accumulated in the sky, the dark clouds that had been condensed in the sky like radiation were gradually changing their chemical form, rapidly forming a storm (cumulonimbus) cloud.

The Thunder Vortex, bearing the powerful residual heat generated by the crater, transpired upward, moving with the clouds like a shadow, and had a tendency to charge and discharge again.

However, coincidentally, the greatest mystery of the here and now, the distance between Ruhr Jones and Sheffield, the distance bombardment between each other, produced another huge magical radiation, which greatly stimulated the storm (cumulonimbus) clouds. Soon, in less than a minute, the sky was still sunny and clear.

Now it gradually dimmed, and one after another was black, and it began to condense rapidly, blocking the daylight, covering it into a gloom with a momentum that covered the sky and the sun, and then lightning and thunder, and then a violent storm and a roar...

After a few dozen seconds, the entire river began to fluctuate, dozens of merchant ships swayed, and the shore was full of flying sand and rocks, and a large amount of dust dispersed, blocking the sight of both the enemy and us. Eventually, with the help of the mist formed by the dust, the people completely lost their traces from here...

Among the hundreds of branches of the "Golden Channel", there is a vast river basin built according to its complex water system, which is a small town for the distribution of goods, the convenience of material turnover, and the place where merchants can stop and rest. And among them, there is an inconspicuous travel manager:

・・・・・・

Chenxing: "Yakalet, as the future commander of the King's Army, and the son of one of the three major families in Wangcheng, you should know a lot of inside information, right?" Something about Alice and the "Heber Crystal". Please don't hide it from me! ”

Chenxing, who was lying in the corner of the bookcase in the room, squinted his eyes, soothed his previous nervous breath, and said cautiously to Yakaret.

Yakaret: "Okay, I didn't deliberately hide it, but it's true that only a few people in the royal city know about the Alyss family, so now I'm..."

Jacaret sighed helplessly, just as he was about to tell the truth of the matter.

Due to the excessive blood loss before, the physical strength was not fully recovered, and after the attack just now, although there was no substantial damage, but still was overly frightened, resulting in fainting, after hearing everyone's conversation, from the bed in the bedroom, holding on to the bed, reluctantly sat up, and replied to everyone in the room:

"Forget it, Jakalet, I'll take care of it! I, Jaccaret, and Ruhr Jones, the three of us, belong to the three major families of the royal city: the Capetian family, the Habsburg family, and the Henry family.

Therefore, in fact, we must add the prefix of these three families after our name, such as Jacaret Capet; Alice Habsburg; and Ruhr Jones Henry.

In other words, the first is just our name, and the last is the real surname, which is a representative of our lineage that has been passed down centuries ago. It is precisely because the family has existed for centuries that each family, at least by rumor, has its own unique treasure that is worthy of being envied and peeped at by the world.

And our family, from the ancestors who created the foundation, has been handed down a legend: our Habsburg family, thousands of years ago, was once the royal family on the continent of Aeoros, a certain generation of emperors, His Majesty, once in the journey to the continent, got acquainted with the ancient Greek mythology, quite famous, is the ancient Greek mythology responsible for the goddess of youth, the gods' wine officer, but also the daughter of Zeus and Hera - Heber.

Then, the goddess Heber gave the emperor a crystal stone that shone with a turquoise light. And tell the emperor that this gem is condensed with the blood of his own god's spirit! And it is applied with a special magic, and whoever can possess it, and use it in a specific way, can get rid of the irresistible fate of aging as a human being. Whoever can have immortality and youth, so as to obtain the privileges that only gods enjoy--- infinitely close to eternal life!

It was recorded in the family genealogy, so that later generations, according to the stories handed down, recorded in the genealogy, the language and text characteristics of the gemstones, the appearance of the gemstones, in the form of paintings, presented to the world, the glorious, dazzling, ushered in the reverie of countless people, in the form of family coats of arms, to preserve, become the symbol of our family.

Centuries before the crystal was obtained, there was also a period of extraordinary darkness recorded in the genealogy, just like the darkest phase of the Middle Ages, with political darkness, economic decline, cultural decay, religious intervention, and plagues・・・・・・

Our people also had this disaster, once there was a terrible war between my people and other empires on the continent of Aeoros, as well as within the empire, that almost wiped out the Habsburg royal family!

And after the devastation and baptism of war, the descendants of the royal family seem to realize that when the items containing the huge "true god power" bring great benefits, they will also bring devastating disadvantages! Because the current strength of my clan is too weak to control at all! Far beyond our power, that's beyond our control・・・・・・

So, in the long war that lasted for decades, the Heber crystal stone was also missing, and it was rumored that it had been snatched by other big families, and it was also rumored that some peace-loving elders in the clan thought that this crystal stone invited the scourge of strife, and destroyed it, or gave it back to Heber.

Although this legend is only a few centuries old, to this day, no one knows if the "Heber Crystal Stone" really existed as recorded in the family genealogy, and what is the truth of the matter? There is no way to know. However, this legend seems to be like a spiritual pillar, supporting the sense of glory of our race.

However, due to the patriarchs of the past dynasties, except for a few who died due to accidents, the vast majority of patriarchs have experienced the inevitable "birth, old age, sickness and death" of human beings, and the fate of death with aging as the process! Therefore, if there really is this power that transcends the dimension of human life, then the patriarchs of the past can completely use their own power to take it for themselves and obtain eternal youth.

Therefore, the charm of this legend has been forgotten by people over time, and other families on the continent of Aioros no longer peep at it and no longer participate in meaningless disputes! Whether it exists or not, like a mythological story, is just a point to talk about after dinner and laugh at it.

But, coincidentally, just seven years ago! The development of things is far beyond everyone's imagination. The war between the Empire of Grace and the Empire of the Holy Sun has broken out, and it is rumored that it is a war induced by Ares, one of the twelve gods of Olympus and the most brutal and violent of the gods!
