Chapter 8, Ancient Heritage
"Ding! You have met the requirements for a transfer, did you submit the quest 'Ancient Legacy' to Arras? ”
A system prompt sounds.
Before Dawn could choose to be sure, Arras's words interrupted Dawn again: "Listen to me tell the story first!" ”
Gradually, Arras's brows furrowed, and he recalled: "A thousand years ago, in this Celestial Star Continent, there were five great empires. It was a chaotic time, with countless lives claimed by war, warriors from armies of all nations, innocent civilians, and displaced vagrants......"
"The five empires are not chaotic, and they are deceitful. In order to become the overlord of this continent, they have waged countless wars against each other. Finally, when this continent was about to be swallowed up by gunsmoke, five strong men appeared. ”
"They have threatened the top of the five empires one after another by means of assassination, and when life is threatened, everything can be compromised. Especially those who covet glory and wealth. Soon, the major empires declared truces. After this, they were called 'Guardians' by the world, the guardians of the entire Celestial Star Continent! ”
"But there is no eternal life in this world, as powerful as the first guardians, the oldest of whom lived for a hundred and twenty years. Before the Guardians reach the end of their time, they will seek out those who are kind and gifted to carry on their mission and continue to protect the continent. For thousands of years, under the constraints of successive guardians, the five empires have maintained a semblance of peace. ”
Arras sighed and continued, "Until ten years ago, one of the seventeenth generation of Guardians explored the secret of eternal life in pursuit of the ultimate in power. Begin to study the cruelty of the living, and the other Guardians will fight the traitor in order to stop him. ”
This traitor has recruited six helpers and joined an organization called the "Seven Sins". Under his careful design, the Guardians fell one after another! ”
Speaking of this, Arras couldn't help but tear up, and his fists trembled unconsciously because of the excessive clenching of force. Dawn is still immersed in this story. At least since he was "born", he has never left the Valley of Thorns, and he doesn't understand the continental form. But such a selfish person, he still despises it.
"After thousands of years of cultivation and the loss of the restraint of the guardians, the five empires began to stir again. Until three years ago, wars broke out on the borders of the major empires! ”
After a pause, Arras continued, "Of the remaining four Guardians, I was the only one who escaped, and the other three were gone forever in that battle!" And that traitor, from the moment he went from the moment of treachery, I thought he was already dead! ”
"Ding! You have met the requirements for a transfer, did you submit the quest 'Ancient Legacy' to Arras? ”
The system prompt appears again at dawn, and the firm choice is confirmed.
"Ding! Congratulations, you've successfully transitioned to 'Demon Hunter'. Because you are the second player to complete the class change, you will receive a random item 'Water Dragon' Secret Scroll. ”
Water Dragon (Dense Scroll, can be used 3/3 times). Effect: Summons a water dragon to destroy all non-allied units within 50 meters, dealing 30,000 magic damage to all targets. Mana cost: 500 points. Cooldown: 24 hours
Taking a fancy to the dense scroll in the backpack, Dawn couldn't close her mouth in surprise. The Blazing Scorpion King only has 3200 HP, and this secret scroll is estimated to be a level 30 boss in an instant. It's definitely a killer feature!
Deliberately glancing at the 270 mana line, Dawn shook his head helplessly. "I guess I won't need it for a while!"
Arras handed over the Heavenly Punishment in his hand and said solemnly: "The blood of the Blazing Scorpion King has a coagulating effect, and after coagulation, it is also mixed with special toughness. With your current strength, it's impossible to break the crossbow string. I hope you don't bury it! ”
"Ding! Arras teaches you the skill, 'Celestial Light: A powerful blow mixed with the light attribute that deals 300% physical damage to a single target, and then the celestial light will leave a light mark on the target's body, and the target cannot be invisible for 60 seconds. Mana Cost: 120. Cooldown: 120s'"
"Ding! Arras teaches you the skill, 'Dark Judgment: An arrow infused with the Dark Elemental that deals 150% physical damage to a single target, then reduces the target's vision to 3 meters for 10 seconds. Mana Cost: 80. Cooldown: 60 seconds'"
After receiving the heavenly punishment handed over, Dawn seemed to have a feeling of blood connection, which was very real and mysterious. Dawn imitated Arras, and gently stroked the white gem under the crossbow, which slowly shimmered with a gentle white light, as if to greet the new owner.
Arras reminded, "This light attribute gem is the soul of Heavenly Punishment!" It can be fixed anywhere else, only it can't! ”

"That's it! I am tired. Go back! "Arras began to issue an eviction order. Looking at Arras's serious face, Dawn said goodbye and turned to leave.
Watching Dawn walk out of the store, Arras suddenly spoke up and said loudly, "I'm going out for a long time, and you won't use it in the future." When you're strong enough, I'll look for you. ”
Dawn turned around and bowed, "Take care!" In his heart, Arras was his teacher, although the twenty-second century had long since eliminated the idea of being a teacher for one day and a father for life. But Dawn is a nostalgic person, he doesn't know what kind of existence his father is, maybe it's like Arras's knife mouth tofu heart!
Arras turned his back and replied, "Remember! Your future road is destined to be lonely! Back in the inner room, Arras's eyes were slightly rosy. He muttered to himself, "I hope you're really Dawn!" The dawn of this dark world! It's time for me to make sure! ”
Walking back to the mercenary group, Dawn summons the attribute panel.
Name: Dawn
Level: 10 (EXPERIENCE: 2900/3800)
Class: Demon Hunter (Level 40 can be used for the second turn)
Health: 360/360
Mana: 270/270
Physical Attack: 78
Magic Attack: 0
Physical Defense: 11
Magical Defense: 11
Movement Speed: 6
Looking at the attack power of 78 points, Dawn is still very satisfied. But in this game, skills are really rare, except for the one that comes with being born, the only thing left is to wait for a job change. Skill books are hard to find!
Back to the mercenary group, although the atmosphere is still depressing. But today's dinner table is a little deserted in addition to being depressed.
The restaurant, which was originally not large, was filled with people at a ten-meter-long table. But now, with the dawn, there are only ten people in total. I don't know if it's because of today's task, the original three dishes and one soup have become a little simpler. Dawn is not a picky eater either, but in this atmosphere, it is obvious that he can't eat.
Li Feng, the "father" who was sitting on the main seat, put down his chopsticks and lowered his face, unable to see what expression was on his face. said: "Dawn, you are also an adult, and you are old enough to go out and wander. It's time to get out and practice! ”
Dawn didn't answer, but nodded. Walked out of the door and came to lie down on the grass on the outskirts of the mercenary group's station.
The unique taste of wormwood spreads in the mouth again, still bitter.
Looking at the stars in the sky, Dawn remembered the days when he was a child in a welfare home. "Is this 'home' going to be swept away again?" Dawn muttered to herself.
"Who said sweeping the floor?" Su Yao approached Liming's side and asked.
"How did you get out? Even though you look skinny, I remember you were very good at eating! The corners of Dawn's mouth rose slightly.
Su Yao held a piece of bread in his mouth, and retorted with some slurred words: "It's a blessing to be able to eat, what do you know?" ”
Halfway, Su Yao finally swallowed the last piece of bread in his mouth and said, "Also, what is it called sweeping the floor and going out, isn't there still me?" And this should be the system setting, we don't belong here. Didn't you notice that there are no monsters above level 10 in Thorn Valley? ”
Dawn remained silent and looked up at the stars. Liang Jiu replied: "I remember someone once said that the moon and the stars never coincide......"
"Okay, I don't have time to listen to your literary and artistic nonsense. I'll go back to sleep, and since you're leaving, of course I'll be with you. But I'm now level 9 and a half, you have to accompany me to level up, and go to Songhai City together after the transfer. The monsters there are generally level 10-20, which is suitable for us to level up! Su Yao walked a few steps and turned around and said, "Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, don't be the same as last time!" ”
Listening to the distant voice, Dawn asked himself, "Is my road destined to be lonely?" ”
Turning his head to look in the direction Su Yao left.
"Nope! I'm not alone at all! At this moment, Dawn smiled contentedly!
