(131) The world that has been changed
Thank you Ziyou-chan for the evaluation votes and tips~
——————————————————————————
After a long and bloody battle, the human alliance can finally proudly announce that they have won the final victory.
In order to save the great light captured by the undead monsters, the brave God of War bravely led his guards to bravely enter the world of death full of undead monsters, and finally the God of War rescued the Great Light, but his army was almost wiped out.
Lord Mars needs to rebuild his army, so he needs to recruit a new group of warriors, and the responsibility of recruiting the Aares Guard falls to the god of war's lieutenant, the beautiful white-haired Valkyrie Iselia, who brings the martial arts of the army of the gods to the warriors.
The first step to becoming a god guard is to prove his prowess to the god of war, the samurai must personally defeat an undead monster and bring back the wreckage of the opponent, and then the veteran warriors who have become part of the god of war guard need to use the secret method given by the Valkyrie to extract the dark power of the monsters from the remains of the monsters or weapon fragments, and make small black crystals.
Getting the crystals is just a certificate of eligibility to join the God of War Guard, and then they need to go to the Holy Shrine of the Holy City of Bologna, the blessed land of the goddess, and swear to burn their lives for the Great Light, because the only mission of all the members of the God of War, including the great and invincible God of War, is to protect the Great Light, and the God of War was born for this purpose.
After completing the allegiance ceremony to the goddess, the reservists of the Divine Guard carrying black crystals will be led by the priests of the Dawn Myth to the eternal holy spring, the birthplace of all life in this world, for the last and most dangerous ritual.
The dark forces are a very terrible existence, it is not enough to destroy them physically, you also need to conquer them mentally, the samurai who participate in the final test need to implant the black crystals they have obtained into their arms, actively let the dark forces pollute themselves, and overcome the pollution of the dark forces under the gaze of the great light, so as to prove that their hearts are as strong as their bodies.
In the end, the god's guards who successfully passed the trial will keep a mutated hand and begin to learn the martial arts of the god of war.
The original intention of Exelia and Ice Hunter to pass on the improved training method of the Ghost Swordsman was only to allow Bologna to maintain a minimum of deterrence when it rose, and they did not expect that future generations would toss it into a set of religious rituals.
After the end of the Scourge War, the strength and invincibility of the god of war and the sacredness of the Great Light were all firmly imprinted in the hearts of every participant, and many warriors who were very confident in their own strength and worshiped the Great Light came to the Dawn Myth Headquarters in Bologna with the hunted remains of the undead, hoping to join the Guardian of the Gods and learn the martial arts taught by the God of War to mortals.
Although the highest authority group of the Undead Scourge has been uprooted by Yugsaron, there are still many sub-high-authority existences among the necromancers who defected at the beginning, and there are still many Scourge monsters roaming the continent, and even after more than ten years, two powerful groups have been formed again, and they are always ready to take revenge on the hateful human beings and the servants of the Great Light.
Brainwashed by a copycat version of Yogsaron and then thrown out of control by his death, the original cult of the Damned has been reorganized into a new cult called Twilighthammer, claiming to be servants of the Old Gods and figuring out how to resurrect their masters every day.
The cult of the Damned, who rebuilt their institutions soon after the destruction of the headquarters, are the madmen who believe that death is immortal and are dedicated to finding all the remnants of the Scourge War, including the Cult headquarters rumored to have been destroyed in the battle between the Great Light God of War and the vile evil gods, and they are also looking for the unaccounted for the unaccounted for Scourge Expeditionary Force and the Lost Eye of Fear Fortress.
In addition, there are two mysterious dark groups worth mentioning, which are called 'Maria' and 'Dawn Guard'.
Almost no one knew where Mary was, and even those who had been to that town didn't know much about how to get there, and later scholars of the Dawn myth said that the place was left by the god of war to suppress the abyss of the world's gods, and later it was rumored that Maria Town had the highest authority for all the undead disaster systems in the world, and they were the undead who had taken refuge in the goddess.
However, the warriors and sorcerers of Mary's origin scoffed at this statement, and the inhabitants of that place believed that they were closer to the goddess than all the creatures of the world, and in their own mythology, the goddess did not hesitate to dye her light black in order to save the sinful inhabitants of Mary, and the goddess of war actually had two goddesses of war, except that the despicable (believer-language) male god of war succeeded in coaxing the great light to bed, and the female god of war, a girl with black wings, The Angel of Slaughter, who shares a heart with the Great Light, has been sent to work with the inhabitants of Maria to watch over the dangerous depths of Hell and prevent the reappearance of demons.
Although there are many necromancers walking the earth, the necromancers and dark knights born in Mary will always be the strongest and only group that can communicate well with humans, and in order to repay the goddess's love and redemption, they vow to destroy all evil undead, so the frenzy of these guys in battle makes the gods of the gods who serve the myth of dawn dumbfounded.
The Dawnguard, or Knights of the Dawn Guard, is known to be a military group composed entirely of Death Knights, and although there is never clear evidence, there are many facts that suggest that it is also a force in the service of the Great Light, although they do not chant the name of the goddess in battle, and rarely even communicate with the living.
Many years later, a priest of the Dawn Myth coincidentally won the trust of the acting Grand Master of the Dawn Guardian Knights, and successfully learned the secrets of this powerful order, including their origins and course of action.
They are the rebels of the Scourge of the Dead, and they were born because of the betrayal of His Majesty the King of the Franks, except that their original Grand Master had been favored by the Great Light during his lifetime (the story was later concocted by some unscrupulous troubadours in the R18 version), and the goddess asked the brave knight about the true meaning of duty, and then gave her heart to him, so that the knight gained extraordinary power to fight against the Scourge of the Dead, and the goddess's favor was not taken back by the death of this knight, Instead, after he became a Death Knight, he helped him ask for control of the Undead Scourge, and even awakened many other knights.
The rehumanized Death Knights were soon filled with a thirst for revenge, and they began a hasty revenge, and succeeded in destroying the army of the Frankish kingdom and killing the king of the Franks, but their actions disappointed the goddess, and she brought the Death Knights back to their senses to fight for justice, not for blind revenge, so she withdrew her power.
The rebellion of the Knights of the Dawn Guard was quickly extinguished by the army of the undead, and their first Grand Master was unaccounted for during the battle.
However, all the Death Knights believe that their Grand Master was relieved of his desire for revenge at the last moment of his life by the gentle Goddess, and the Great Young Goddess brought the knight, who never revealed his real name, back to the heavens and built a throne for him with eternal ice, and the mortally wounded knight slept in the throne, and once darkness returned to the continent, the knight hand-picked by the goddess would awaken, and he would step on his horse, take up his rune sword, and put on his armor to fight for his 'lover'!
As the most trusted knights of the Goddess (as the Death Knights of the Dawn Guard themselves believe), it is now up to them to recover the horses, armor, and swords of the original Grand Master, and to gallop once again when their Captain returns.
Because of the appearance of the Great Light, the Goths regained their former glory, and even fanatical Gothic chauvinists claimed that the goddess was actually the ancestor of all Goths, and the reason he used to prove it was the most famous product of Goths - Gothic Lori.
Although the debtor was later approached by an assassin from Maria and had his tongue cut, the terrible talk of the Great Light could not be stopped by such horrors, and the R18 stories of the Great Light in the Bard's mouth never stopped, and despite the Dawn Myth's efforts to maintain the majesty of its goddess, it ...... Will the baby goddess be majestic?
The image of the Great Light is very clear, she is just a little girl, and no amount of murderous ornaments her followers attach to her can change this fact, as the believers who witnessed the appearance of the goddess at the time of the plague of Bologna have testified to this.
Moreover, in myths and various folk tales, believers are very sad to find that the word most closely related to their young goddess is stupid, and even the first reaction of the high priest full of reverence after seeing the body of the great light is 'Ah! She can't be stupid, right? Such a disrespectful thought that at the end someone even concluded: 'If you see a wise goddess appear in front of you, then she must be someone else in disguise!' Finally this conclusion is written in the Scriptures.
The new functional building system brought by the Scourge of the Dead has opened the eyes of the turtles of the Imperial Age, and the power of the cursed magic and spiritism in it has made all countries extremely excited, although most people are still vigilant, but there are still many forces that have begun to secretly study the magic of the Scourge of the Dead, and the psychic academy and wizards have become semi-public existences after a period of development, although there are many magic research institutions that eventually become lackeys of the undead, but many have survived in the end.
Curses, Spiritism, Necromancy, Ghost Swordsman Martial Arts, Energy Crystal Processing Technology...... The influx of mystical forces changed the development of this world, and the winds of change began in Bologna and eventually spread throughout the world, because the world was much smaller than ours, and their ocean-going navigation technology and shipbuilding industry were much simpler than ours.
Yes, all adventures are over...... At least temporarily.
Maybe there will be other magnificent stories in this world in the future, but those stories have nothing to do with them now.
Theodoric was also the lord of Bologna, but his city had become a holy city, and the second capital of all Goths, although he was not trained as a ghost swordsman, he was recognized as one of the high-ranking commanders of the Guard of the Gods, and Belisarius and other generals who excelled in the war also received this honor.
His greatest achievement was to leave behind the 'Iron Alliance', a military organization that transcends borders and nationalities, and the continent of Europa may be unified under the banner of the Iron Alliance.
Anci quietly left the camp the day after Yugsaron was wiped out, many people didn't even know about the existence of this big bald head, maybe this undead spirit did not want to go back to the original world, he wanted to live in this world.
Marisa's identity was not revealed in the end, and with the Goths having a new faith, the former royal power suddenly seemed dispensable, but it was a good thing for her.
Melly has been very irritated lately, probably because the presence of the Great Light has set off a wave of lolicon frenzy across the continent, and the girl's talent in the midst of disasters is really outstanding...... The stinking and shameless proposers came to the door again.
However, the two children were generally very happy, because the friend they had been caring for day and night had finally returned safely.
Youshi and Yin Wensu, two imps of unknown origin, followed Dongdong to Bologna.
Ning Yi questioned the two of them and learned that the two of them were visitors from another world like herself, although this answer was very suspicious, but it could barely be explained, Ning Yi finally chose to accept the other party's explanation, and promised to take them back to his own world.
But I don't know if it's an illusion, the more Ning Yi looks, the more he feels that he seems to have seen the little boy named Yin Wensu somewhere.
You've got everything done, right?
Hmm~ That's right! There's one person missing.
Knock knock now...... I'm crying.
