Chapter 33: The Lake, the Sword and the Distant Mountains

The lonely moonlight was reflected on the vast surface of the lake, sprinkling a silver edge on the sparkling ripples, and the light and shadow were reflected in the cabin through the portholes, and the light and shadow were dappled like water.

The splendor seemed to brighten the cabin, refracted on the rusty blade, which lay flat in the soft satin, violet and gold-studded with a hint of mystery, and the sword seemed to glow throughout.

But for thousands of years, it seems to have been accustomed to such a lonely and nameless sleep, and no longer appears in front of the world in its former form, so that it has lost its sharp blade and tells the ancient years with its mottled sword body.

'Broken Sword', the gray and white font hovers above the sword, and almost everyone who has the system can see it.

But only in Fang Yuan's eyes was slightly different, and what he saw was one more word than others:

'Broken Sacred Sword'

It is these slight differences that make Fang Yu feel that its origin is extraordinary.

The information provided by the system is sometimes incomplete, but it is rarely deceiving.

Everyone stepped forward in turn to hold the sword, but to no avail, and Parker even tried to pick it up and swing it twice.

The crowd had tried a variety of methods, including dripping blood on the blade, but it remained quiet and inconspicuous.

"Maybe it's really broken." Ai whispered.

Sky Blue moved her mouth and didn't speak.

It's a pity that they didn't master a craft called the Restoration Sacred Sword. Because they're not even magic wizards, but real magic swords.

In the past, it was born in the hands of goblins, forged in the furnaces of the mountains, quenched by dragon blood, and blessed by the gods.

A dark red in the darkness, the golden glow forged its blade, sparks falling like a waterfall, and outlining the soul of its sword.

When they were born, the world was shaken, and the darkness was hostile to them; In every dark corner lurked a whisper, as if to speak of the fear of the five fairy holy swords.

Where the sword goes, the evil worship is scattered, in that era, it was not just a legend.

But the sword was rusty and mottled, lying quietly on the soft silk surface, and the moon was like water.

Fang Yu gently grasped the hilt of the sword, and the dark bear was silent.

It was as if all the mysteries and legends in the darkness had collapsed, and the scattered dreams were like lingering smoke, and the shadows were like lingering smoke, turning into shadows and becoming one with the blade.

The past is the present, and it always has been.

Fang Yu couldn't help but take a breath, for fear that what he bought was really a fake, which would be ridiculous. But he preferred to believe that he had not found a suitable solution, because Miss Tata would not lie to him.

Nini was also lying on his shoulder, grabbing his collar with a pair of small hands, trying to stay away as much as possible, but she couldn't reassure him. It was as if the sword was about to kill their father and daughter on the spot as soon as it came out of the box, a memory hidden in the blood, difficult to change. But she was more worried about her Papa than herself, and muttered in a soft and uneasy tone: "Papa, Papa, Nini is afraid of ......"

Fang Yu slapped Nini's cheek with his fingers, comforted the little girl, took two steps back, and left away.

Holy swords do not deteriorate from battle, nor do they rust if left out for too long, and under certain circumstances, they will obscure themselves and turn into ordinary swords.

But at the beginning of the forging, the elves set the way to activate them. The blood of the five Oath Keeper clans, but not only the agreed guardians can pick them up, any mortal warrior can take up the holy sword to challenge the darkness, the key is to meet the required conditions.

The five holy swords, with the exception of the morning light, were all forged in the hands of the goblins.

The Sword of Dawn, the Blade of Light, the first sword born from the furnace of the mountains, forged by the dwarves and blessed by Talos, the god of the mountains.

The sword is still the national emblem of Ishurian and a sacred relic that bears the name of King Hailin.

It can be picked up by all Cowlings, dwarves, and the sword has three famous owners, two of whom are kings of Cowling, including the Founding King, and one of whom is a dwarven hero.

Moya was the second sword forged, the first of the five swords, and this crown was not only due to the fact that it was blessed by the dragon god Bahamut, and possessed the most feared trait of the dark dragon, but more importantly, it slain the dragon king Lifgard.

Galapea, the Fairy's Child, has a story worthy of an epic and the last sacred sword of mortals. Witness the fire of Venus falling into the mortal dust, the end of the war between man and dragon.

The god of fairies, the pure maiden Aisha blessed her with a drop of blood, and the blood fell from the spine of the sword, forming a bunch of thorny patterns.

Whoever wields this sword will be protected by Aisha, as if he were in a pure realm, forever free from darkness.

But this is only a beautiful vision after all, and the story of the dragon slayer turning into a dragon never stops.

The fourth of the five swords is the most mysterious, and it is as if the world has never heard of its name or seen it in its true form. It seems to have neither a past nor a future, no one knows where it was, where it rests now, what experiences it has had, and what kind of stories it has written?

Its legend is unknown.

As the last holy sword forged from the furnace, the enemy destroyer is much more ordinary.

It is the enemy of the dragon, the sword of the dragon's death, and under the blade hangs the heads of seven legendary dragons, dripping rivers of blood and flowing into seas.

Only a hero bathed in dragon blood and indomitable is worthy of this sword, and the gods who bless it -

Fang Yu turned his head to look at the big cat man, and among the people, only the lion man paladin had not stepped forward.

The latter smiled and twisted the ring on his beard with his paws, "Do you really want me to come, I am afraid that it will be impressed by my heroism, then you will not have this opportunity." ”

Sky Blue chuckled, "You have to make sure if Brother Ed is buying a fake or not, Big Cat Man." ”

"I trust Ed's vision."

"Oops, stop bragging, go try it!"

"So I'm really going?"

"Mr. Red, please hurry."

Fang Yu also sighed.

Defeat the enemy is the motto of valor. This is also the only one of the five swords that has been blessed by the brave lady Marlan.

He believed that he could see the difference in the Holy Sword, because of the reason why he was favored by Marlan.

And among the crowd, there is a true follower of the goddess of war, although the big cat man has no system, but he can tell it immediately.

Red walked up, dressed in silver armor shining in the moonlight, and he looked at the sword in the box, and after a moment, he stretched out his claws and pressed them against the hilt.

In that moment, the moonlight outside the window was emerging from the clouds.

The bright light cast on the surface of the lake, as if silver light was shining from the dark and dreary water, and the entire lake of Aobei's tears brightened up in an instant.

A ray of light rose from the sword, and although it was only for a brief moment, it was peaceful again.

The sword was still in the big cat's hand, as if it was still in its place, and the lake outside the window was silent again, and everything before seemed like an illusion.

But Fang Ou heard a few distant exclamations coming from the other side of the lake shore in the darkness, in the direction of the port of Pacheva.

"How is it," Tianlan witnessed the incredible scene before, but everyone couldn't tell if it was a hallucination, and she couldn't help but ask, "Is there any change?" ”

The big cat man didn't answer, but just crossed his sword at them and let them see for themselves.

He turned the blade of his sword, and the blade of the sword reflected the bright light of the lake.

Tianlan's eyes widened, and then she saw that the mottled rust on the sword's body had long disappeared into invisibility, and its whole body was cold and shining, flashing with blue brilliance.

But other than that, it is somewhat ordinary, the blade of the sword is unpretentious, there is no decoration, and there is no sign of the weight of history. It's like just an ordinary sword.

It's just that in Fang Yuan's eyes, this sword is completely different from that time:

Holy Sword (?) /?? )

Attack: 427-661

(Seal)

Grace of Courage: Immunity to fear.

Holy Pact: When using all spells and abilities with the [Height] modifier, it has the effect of God's might.

There's no order, there's no classification, it's not even called the Enemy Destroyer, and it's not the Dragon Death Holy Sword.

But the word Holy Sword alone already has enough weight.

So much so that the attack power column below is not even shocking enough, although the average damage of about five hundred can be summed up in about four words.

Invincible.

In the First World, there was no armor to stop it, and all means of protection were useless in the face of such sharpness.

And even if it is a holy sword in a sealed state, the three abilities it has have their own merits.

Immunity to fear may seem unremarkable, but it's a must-have ability against large creatures, especially dragons.

It even nullified one-third of the illusionist's ability.

As for Marlan's holy deed, it was even more contemptuous of the Knights of Virtue. The so-called God's Mighty Ability is the core ability of the Virtue Knight, which actually comes from the name of a core spell - Virtue Might.

Under the protection of different knightly virtues, the paladins' spells will show different amazing effects.

Among them, the Mark of Valor increases the damage and effectiveness of spells.

The Realm of Honesty leaves enemies with nowhere to hide.

Mercy increases healing power.

The just spell definitely hits.

Sacrifice to defeat the enemy is terrifying.

The honor is noble and speechless, and cannot be dispelled.

The soul is tough, fearless, and immune to the mind.

The Knights of Virtue have eight proverbs, and the power of the gods of Marlan, though not exactly equal to them, has at least four of them:

Bravery, justice, honor and soul, and there is no limit to the number of times this sword can be used.

The one who wields this sword is equivalent to half a knight of virtue, and the latter needs to spend a lot of time learning, and how to use his abilities requires strict adherence to the proverbs.

The power of the holy sword can be seen from this.

The room was a little quiet for a while.

Parker's black bean-like eyes widened, and his mouth opened into an O-shape:

"I'll go, won't I?"

The Paparal man's face was distorted with excitement, and he cried out jealously, "It's not fair! ”

Then he ran away without looking back.

Frightened, Ai Xiaoxiao hurriedly went out to take a look, and after a while she ran back to tell everyone that Parker had run back to his room to fiddle with his Sinsas-era magic wizard.

Now he believed it was a legendary magician.

The big cat man laughed dumbly.

Holding the sword in his hand, he said to everyone, "If it's not an artifact, at least it's a holy artifact." ”

The holy artifact is a class between the legend and the artifact, and whether it is a secondary artifact, an artifact or a high-level artifact, it is actually one category, and there will be no distinction in the system, but it is just an artificial division of the summoner to distinguish the level of the artifact.

Therefore, the relics are only under the artifact and belong to the second class.

But in fact, the boundary between holy relics and artifacts is often blurred, and at least half of the holy relics left by the spirits of Noumerin are artifacts.

The current enemy destroyer can be called a holy artifact, but after breaking the seal, it is almost certainly an artifact, just like the holy sword Moya.

Aside from the Fairy Heart and the Ring of Golden Flame, this was the third artifact they had mastered.

But the first two are not so intuitive, the Fairy Heart is only a part of the Dragon Knight, and the Golden Flame Ring is a quest item.

Only the Enemy Destroyer can claim to be the first artifact-level equipment they have.

For now, though, it's just a holy thing.

Fang Yu thought to himself, maybe the Zero Crystal left to him by Master Hain was also an artifact, although the Dragon Soul Crystal was not graded, but its significance to this world was greater than that of most true divine things.

Red gripped the blade and handed it over, "You can try it, Eddard. ”

But Fang Yu shook his head, what did he want this sword for, besides, he had already tried. The gods choose the master, and there is no doubt that the other party is the best destination for this holy sword.

The big cat man listened to his words, and when he saw that everyone nodded in unison, he smiled and accepted the sword:

"This is the public property of the Seven Seas Brigade, so I'll take care of it for you."

It can be seen that he likes this sword very much.

Because it wasn't just a holy sword, it was Lady Marlan's sword.

……

Little is known about what happened that night.

Although the next day there was talk of the lake glowing, more people thought it was just an illusion or a natural phenomenon.

Someone with good deeds posted the video taken at that time to the community, which in turn attracted a wave of sightseeing at Aube's Tears Lake.

For many years afterward, the Moon of the Lake of Tears became a well-known local legend.

But few people thought that this had anything to do with the holy sword in Fang Yu's hand. And the story about him buying the holy sword has only been circulating in the local area for a few days, and like all the jokes after dinner, it has gradually disappeared.

About two days later, on a very ordinary day, the repaired Seven Seas Traveler said goodbye to the others who had come to see them off, and left Pacheva.

As the joke was, Ms. Essally had been on board for days.

Together with her teammates, they planned to go on an adventure in the Great Wetland, and Fang Yu gave them a ride.

She formed a good friendship with Alyssa and Sylvid, and then disembarked in a small village called Sin-Tahka, and said goodbye to the others.

Sylvid would sometimes smile and ask him if he missed that sexy big sister.

But Fang Yu had learned to answer this kind of proposition, and he asked rhetorically, who was that?

Whenever this happens, the shipssayer would laugh and bend over, then stop and give him a fragrant kiss.

Fang Ou sometimes thought that the lady Esalie, who always made fun of him, was too terrible.

The Seven Seas Traveler soon passed through the Great Wetlands, as the lizardmen called it, and humans called the Great Rainforest.

As they drew closer to the ladder of the old world, the towering ridgeline of Mount Piried, rising on the horizon, gradually becoming a deep shadow in front of them.

After Lady Essally left, the only guests on board were Walnut and his companions, four of them except for Beyge.

Several of the young men were shy on the boat, and the walnuts in the ground were the oldest of them, the size of a square plover.

The other three largest ones were all months younger than the walnuts in the ground, and the youngest was only sixteen years old.

The walnut in the ground was the highest level among the several people, fifteen levels, but the time when he entered Aitaria was four years earlier than Fang Yuan.

The other three averaged around level twelve.

Like Ms. Essally, they were full of praise for the ship.

Because from the outside, the Seven Seas Traveler is just small, but after boarding, it is a sparrow that is small and has all five organs.

And the atmosphere of life inside is more comfortable than on most ships.

Lady Essally was jealous of this, and if it weren't for her companions, Fang Yu had reason to believe that the cheeky lady would not have left.

However, a few young people are not so cheeky.

There were not enough space on the ship, so they offered to hang a few hammocks in the bow utility room.

The walnuts in the ground don't want to live in a comfortable room by themselves, but their friends sleep in hammocks, so they also take the initiative to join them. In the end, it was Miss Atira who suggested that they be kept in the infirmary, which could also be called a confinement room.

It's no wonder that these days Fang Plover looks at Parker and Sky Blue's lawlessness, and it seems that he is confident that he will not be locked up in a small dark room.

As a result, he found an opportunity to lock the Paparal in the utility room for a day, and the latter was indeed much more honest, at least he did not dare to raid the ship's galley.

A few young men were gathered on the deck to watch Attila trim the belladonna branches in the garden, the twigs she held growing vines like by magic and wrapping around the shelves.

It's rare to see a druid in Ameya, let alone a spell like this, and Miss Elf can even make fruits and vegetables ripen early—for example, the potatoes and dwarf tomatoes from the meal they used yesterday came from this garden.

However, every penny of mana on the ship is fixed, and Miss Elf will calculate the use of them.

Sky Blue was blowing the wind on the deck with her arrow-tailed buzzard chick, which had already given birth to its first feathers, and although it was still far from the adult, it already had a bit of a appearance.

Except for Ai Xiaoxiao's one, there is a tendency to develop towards flying pigs.

Parker teased her more than once not to put feathers on the pigs, which made the little girl often teary-eyed, and then the Paparal people were about to be beaten by the sky blue fat who had heard the news.

But no matter what, Ai Xiaoxiao is about to lose her pet.

This time, they bought a lot of plant seeds in the territory of the lizards, and with the druid's spell casting materials, Miss Elf's potions laboratory and greenhouse are almost ready to be built.

But there is still a suitable assistant missing.

"Passing through Mount Piried, it's Kailano. Is that place really in the Pirière Mountains? ”

Fang Yu looked at the shadow of the mountain in the distance and asked.

Walnut nodded underground, "That's what Becky said. ”

"Miss Becky said anything else?"

She said there was a vein there, just below Mount Piried. Her father had been to that place," the walnuts in the ground stopped, "but we can only speculate on the basis of some general information." Captain Ed, are you really going to that place? ”

Fang Yu looked at the cloudy clouds in the sky, and the rainstorm was coming. He looked again at Becky, who was standing alone at the bow of the boat, and nodded:

"I'll send you to Goland, even if the Descendants of Flor stop us on the other side of Kailano. But in that case, you may have to go with us to St. Hume. ”

The walnuts in the ground breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, he didn't know what they should do next when they arrived at Kailano.

Bey's father was in custody at Orenze, but they couldn't do anything about it.

Fang Yu was able to help them make decisions, which made him a lot easier.
