Chapter 453: Sword and Scabbard (Second Update)
Even so, Brother Feng still paid Jacob, after all, life is not easy, after sending the other party away, he decided to search the entire underground labyrinth by his own methods!
He made Muzi activate the ability of the Xunfeng Divine Wood, and the walls of the labyrinth suddenly became useless, and he himself used the Xunfeng God's ability to form a synaesthesia with Muzi, because Muzi did not have a bracelet, and even if he did, he could not use it if he wore it on a puppet's arm.
Through that kind of maintenance, what Muzi saw through the wall also caught Brother Feng's eyes, so the actual exploration still had to rely on him and Hongger.
Soon, they began to explore in a carpet way, progressing from back to front, and the map on the bracelet was like a picture being refreshed, gradually starting to become complete.
After refreshing a part, Brother Feng asked Muzi to stop for a while to rest, because he looked at Muzi who was tired from overusing his strength, and suddenly felt unbearable, even if the identity of the other party was his own Shenmu, but in Brother Feng's eyes, Muzi was no longer a prop, but the person he wanted to protect desperately, this may be the fate between the Martial God and the Shenmu......
After Muzi sat down, Brother Feng hurriedly ran forward, and looked at her with concern after squatting: "It's okay, take your time, don't rush." ”
"It may be too late...... "Muzi seemed to know something.
"You mean the Illusory Corporation?" Brother Feng waved his hand, "They are playing a big game of chess, even if we are two days early and two days late, it won't change anything." ”
"No, it's just...... I can't feel the presence of other Divine Trees now,......" Muzi's eyes under the mask showed trepidation, "I always feel like something is happening......"
"Can't feel ......?" Brother Feng recalled what Muzi said.
"We Shenmu are actually the same as your martial gods, there is resonance with each other, in order to judge whether the other party is safe and sound, if you can't feel it, it means that your companion is sealed, or you have gone to another world."
"It's unlikely that they went to another world, but did they go to Serrania again? But now everyone is still looking for the Holy Grail together, and in my understanding of Shi Fan, it is impossible for him to give up halfway in doing things. Brother Feng said with great conviction.
Hunger, who was listening to the side, thought for a while and said, "Then it is possible to be sealed, doesn't the dimensional bracelet have the ability to seal things?" It's okay to leave it open, but if it's closed, it can really seal the contents inside. ”
"You mean they've all turned off their bracelets!?" Brother Feng didn't understand, "That's not right...... If that's the case, is it ...... they are in danger? ”
"Looks like we need to go back to the ground!" It was the first time that Muzi had shown such eagerness.
"No, let's not say that the maze hasn't been searched yet, so going up like this is tantamount to losing all your efforts." Brother Feng disagreed, and after a pause, he continued, "Besides, if they really encounter any trouble now, then the enemy's next target will definitely be us, maybe we are already guarding outside the cave now, we go out like this is completely equivalent to throwing ourselves into the net, and the person who can make Shi Fan and them all close the bracelet must not be simple!" ”
"Could it be the ...... of the Illusory Realm Company?" Hunger worried, "But Haosi is still outside, will he be in danger?" ”
"I don't know, I hope he'll be okay, anyway, everyone has to be careful next."
After Brother Feng finished speaking, after exchanging glances with Muzi, Muzi continued to work, Brother Feng closed his eyes and observed what Muzi saw with synaesthesia, and the maze map on the bracelet began a slow refresh process again......
Just as Kiko was passing through one of the walls, he finally found Koji hanging there.
The moment they looked at each other, the two stopped at the same time.
"How did you get in!?" Muzi asked in surprise.
"I feel uneasy because I can't get in touch with you, that's why I ......"
After Koji briefly recounted what he encountered when he entered the labyrinth, he took out the iron sword from the bracelet, which was the holy sword Excalibur.
"This is it." Koji handed the iron sword into Kiko's hands.
"That's right, this is indeed King Arthur's holy sword." After seeing it, Muzi said with great certainty, "It's a pity that it is no longer glorious to lose its protection......"
"Guard? Could it be King Arthur? ”
"No, it's a scabbard."
"It turns out that the holy sword still has a scabbard...... "Koji scratched his head, "So, is there anything special about this scabbard?" ”
As soon as he asked this, Brother Feng and Hunger also came over, and after Haoji saw Brother Feng, he immediately apologized to him for his unauthorized claims, but Brother Feng didn't pay attention to this, but just stepped forward and hugged him tightly, saying, "It's okay!" ”
Through Muzi's next story, everyone learned that King Arthur's holy sword was the legendary "Kundi Divine Tree", but it was composed of two parts: the sword itself and the scabbard, and without one, the power of the divine tree could not be opened, that is to say, the Phantom Company had only obtained the scabbard of the holy sword, at best, it was only half a sacred tree.
For the relationship between the sword and the scabbard, it can be said that they complement each other, the sword body needs the protection of the scabbard to rejuvenate the spirit, and the scabbard needs the sword body to open the power of the divine wood, the real source of power is actually the gems inlaid on the scabbard, which are not simple ornaments, but the crystallization of the power of Kundi bred by the sacred tree.
The reason why the Phantom World Company swore that they had obtained the Kundi Divine Tree was because they only knew the function of those gems, but they ignored the most crucial key that could open it, the Holy Sword.
"So, those guys just found a safe, but they didn't get the code or key to open it." Brother Feng said with an analogy.
"That's right, so the 'Kundi Divine Tree' that the other party currently has is not a threat, and they don't have the Martial God Card 'Earth Certificate', so they can't use the power of the Divine Tree." Kiko said as she returned the sword to Koji and instructed, "So this is your own thing, take care of it." ”。
After Koji took it, he recalled the seemingly illusory scene when he met King Arthur, and it seemed that the interaction between the "Evidence of the Earth" and him at that time was not accidental, but the relationship between the Valkyrie and the Divine Tree.
Having said that, Muzi continued to explore the maze, but it was too big, and after a few hours, the map only showed about sixty percent, which was indeed like a common maze in books, very complicated, if it weren't for Muzi, ordinary people would eventually be trapped if they blindly went deeper. The bones lying on the ground or sitting next to the wall in some of the aisles amply prove this.
