Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In the Age of the Ancient Gods, Laxis, the goddess of life, was in charge of Eldran's most mysterious well of fate.
It is rumored that the Well of Destiny is the source of the natural energy of this world, and all life in the world is nourished by the energy continuously released by the Well of Destiny, and in the documents handed down from ancient times, no one knows where the specific location of the Well of Destiny is.
After Ragnarok, the Well of Destiny disappeared with the fall of the gods.
Some scholars speculate that the Well of Destiny may have been destroyed by the war of the gods, and some scholars believe that the Well of Fate may be somewhere in the underworld of this world.
Little is known about the Well of Destiny, the most mysterious thing in Eldran, but there is one thing that allows people to understand the secrets and powers of the Well of Destiny from the side.
The essence of life.
The rumored Goddess of Life, Luxis, is a product of the Well of Fate.
In the War of the Gods, Laxis, the goddess of life representing the god of order, in order to resist the army of death that Galbor swept through the world, Laxis extracted countless life essences from the well of fate to supply the mortal warriors of all races.
After these mortal warriors of various races took the essence of life, their strength and wisdom changed dramatically in an instant, and if they were to be described as now, they would be like an ordinary person without strength who had become a law powerhouse stepping into the realm of fernu in the blink of an eye.
The so-called one-step ascension to heaven is nothing more than that.
It's a pity that even if the Goddess of Life refines the essence of life day and night, the number is limited, and the warriors of the God of Order still can't stop the crazy footsteps of the Galbo undead army.
The war of the gods broke out, and the gods fell. The havoc of the Old Faith War has left almost the entire continent of Elderland desolate. Bony and bone-packed. The population of the races has even fallen into a critical juncture of one in ten, and even if the death army of Galbod that is invincible across Eldran loses its immortal power, even if it falls apart, the tribes are still weak in terms of absolute strength, if it were not for the leaders of the warriors of the tribes who survived by the life essence, after countless hard battles, they were able to successfully defeat and drive out the army of death left behind by Galbod, otherwise Eldaran's history would probably have taken another path of fate.
It can be said that the essence of life saved the races that were on the verge of despair at that time.
After the birth of the New World. People began to tirelessly pursue the mystery of the essence of life, trying to replicate the power and wisdom that the essence of life gave to people, but unfortunately, until the era of hegemony, their efforts failed without exception.
At the beginning of the era of hegemony, the wizards of the Noxians developed a potion similar to the essence of life, although this potion is not comparable to the real essence of life, but it can also give ordinary people the effect of entering a powerful force in a short time, and has a strong ability to recover at the healing level, as long as it is not a fatal injury from a severed head. Even if the heart is broken, this pseudo-life essence is able to repair and heal.
The appearance of the pseudo-life essence has inflated the ambitions of the Noxians. At that time, when the contradictions between the tribes on the continent of Eldran were becoming more and more acute, the Noxes were the first to detonate the war!
With the power given by the pseudo-life essence, the Noxians swept most of Eldran in a short period of time, but this also made the Noxians the target of the eyes of the clans.
After the era of hegemony, the Noxians disappeared into the long river of history, but the pseudo-life essence they left behind was passed on the continent of Elderland.
Many years later, the pseudo-life essence became the real life essence in the eyes of people, and due to the materials and the difficulty of making it, the pseudo-life essence has also become a treasure that people regard as the most treasure.
The life essence promised by Overred was such a pseudo-life essence, and Xia Lan believed that as long as he took that pseudo-life essence, the injuries on his body would not only be healed, but even allow him to step into the threshold of the upper middle level, and perhaps there was a very small chance of successfully entering the peak level.
But.
The premise of this qiē is that the other party is not lying!
"You should know the consequences of cheating on me."
As Overred said goodbye and left, Charan stood in front of the door and said calmly.
"Of course, keeping one's word is a noble virtue, and my lord, Lord Earl Heather, is just such a man."
Overred was stunned when he heard this, he turned his head, and the black gentleman's hat in his hand rested on his chest and bowed slightly.
"Hopefully, his virtues will not be his epitaph."
After saying this, Xia Lan turned around and closed the door.
Overred put the black gentleman's hat on his head, and a faint smile appeared on his handsome face, and he walked out of the humble inn, and not long after, a group of well-trained soldiers suddenly poured out of the alley beside the hotel.
"How's it going, Lord Overred? You're not hurt, are you? ”
A young man who looked like a non-commissioned officer stepped forward with a worried and anxious face, and whispered in concern.
"Groan, don't worry, I'm fine, and...... He agreed to our terms. Overred smiled at the young man and soothed the other man's feelings.
"Whew-"
Groan breathed a long sigh of relief, and his face became relaxed, and said, "Yes, Lord Overred, if things go well, the Earl will definitely reward you heavily." ”
"Really?"
Overred smiled and didn't reply, just looked up at the purple moon in the night sky.
It's funny to think about the old guy if he knew that I had promised him the essence of life that he was a treasure, and I don't know what kind of expression he would have.
"What are you laughing at, my lord?"
Groan, who saw the strange smile on Overred's face, was rather uneasy.
"Nothing."
Overred waved his hand and said, "Your Excellency in the inn will leave for Nordland early tomorrow morning, and the task of leading the way will be entrusted to you." ”
"Lord Overred, won't you go back to Cantland?" Groan was shocked when he heard this.
"There's still a lot of business for me to take care of on Sloanan's side, and the spy ahead has paid off. Viscount Farrant has now left Ciudad Telalo and is heading to Diolda. In this regard, we have to be vigilant and guard against ......"
said. Overred glanced at Groan, and the meaning in his gaze was self-evident.
"Subordinate...... Yes, sir. ”
Groan smiled bitterly.
"Not bad! Grosian, take care of your safety when you return to Cantland, and most importantly, be careful with your words and demeanor when dealing with that Excellency. Overred patted Groan on the shoulder and said, "He's a man I have to fear and fear." ”
Fearful? Fear?
Groan's eyes widened in disbelief.
Overred shook his head, stepped aside and muttered, "Because I have found no human existence in him." ”
……
Early in the morning, in front of the hotel.
After taking the "Snow Wind" brought by the hotel attendant, looking at the energetic appearance of the "Snow Wind", you can know that it has roughly regained its original radiance. The snow-white mane shimmered silver in the sun, and the eyes that shone with the light of humanity looked at the master from time to time, as if asking what to say.
Xia Lan patted the neck of the horse of "Snow Wind", but her eyes looked at a young man who looked like a sergeant in front of her.
"Who are you?"
His voice was cold, indifferent to the point of reluctance.
"In Lower Groan, Adjutant of the Garrison of Moya Town! Follow the orders of Lord Overred, the Adjutant of the Commanders, and lead your Excellency to Cantland! ”
Groan bowed his head and replied respectfully, no one knew that his palms were already covered with fine sweat, and now he finally understood why Lord Overred had uttered that warning last night, thinking that he had been on the battlefield and killed many people in his hands. But really standing in front of a strong man at the pinnacle of the top, the courage in his heart disappeared in an instant. Even his legs trembled involuntarily.
Could it be that this is the momentum suppression brought about by status and strength?
"I see."
Xia Lan nodded expressionlessly, turned over his horse, and rode on the "Snow Wind" of the tall divine horse, he looked at the neatly waiting column of knights not far away and said, "You can go now." ”
"Follow your will."
After saying that, Groan hurriedly returned to the ranks of the knights, stepped on a swarthy war horse, and then turned to Xia Lan and said, "Your Excellency, please come with us." ”
The sound of horses' hooves and the billowing of smoke and dust.
On the walls of Moya's small town, Overred looked at Xia Lan and his party in the distance, and after a long time, until the team in front of him disappeared into the horizon, he finally turned around.
"Have you spied on Viscount Farrante's intention to go to Diorda?"
Suddenly, he said towards an empty corner.
"My lord, after many days of our spy investigation, Viscount Frank is constantly sending soldiers to gather towards Diorda, and it can be seen from the caravan supplies that Viscount Frank seems to be preparing for war!"
At this moment, a low, strange voice came from a no-man's corner.
"War?" Overred's face, which had always maintained a modest face, suddenly sneered: "I didn't expect that cautious and cunning old guy to finally be willing to make a move after so many years!" If he thinks that there is a chance to take advantage of our weakness after the withdrawal, then I will definitely leave his body in the land of Sloan! ”
"My lord, don't forget the arrangement in the area of Ulsen not long ago, maybe the battle line led by Viscount Farrant is far more than just the surface!" A voice from no man's corner reminded.
"Of course! I will not forget the lesson that His Excellency Bai Xize has taught us to fail over the years! Overred clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "But their good days are coming to an end!" ”
"Your Excellency, you're talking about Derrank. Xia Lan? A voice from no man's corner said.
"That's right!" Overred said.
"But in our intelligence, he's just an ordinary upper-rank and lower-rank swordsman." A voice from the corner said.
"Do you believe that a swordsman of the upper rank and lower rank can escape from Bai Xize's pursuit? Do you believe that a swordsman of the upper rank and lower rank can release sword energy? Overred's eyes narrowed and said, "If he's not at the top of the ranks...... Then, I believe that the essence of life will definitely make him the pinnacle of the upper position! (To be continued)
