Chapter 22: Shin Shin?
A brilliant light bloomed from the circle.
A long sword wrapped in golden light slowly emerged, its dazzling light seemed to be able to cut through all darkness, and its form could not be seen clearly, but any creature must feel the incomparably powerful aura when it saw the illusory shadow of this long sword.
Glory: Sword of Oath – Revodin!
When this void sword appeared, a whirlpool of shining golden energy appeared in front of Rhodes's eyes, and [Revodin] was pulled out of the whirlpool with difficulty, just by feeling the light of that moment, he could fully understand the aura of justice, justice, glory and power that could never exist in the mortal world.
Suddenly, behind this energy vortex, an incomparably handsome, genderless tall figure appeared in front of Rhodes. It was a 10-foot-tall Celestial Spirit, a being with pure golden skin, a glorious memory, and white wings that shone with a white-gold metallic sheen. He was surrounded by a blazing light, but his expression was humble, gracious, and comforting.
It was an indescribable existence.
He does not represent any known gods or spirits, it is the embodiment of rules, and he represents the incomparable and supreme spirit of contract contained in the Emperor's Oath.
"This is the fairest contract in the world!"
Rhodes stared at the "egg" in front of him, silently thinking in his heart. At this moment, the number in the experience point column in his attribute panel was falling wildly, as if summoning this sword that shouldn't exist was a great drain on experience points.
[Emperor's Oath]: Also known as the Emperor's Covenant, it is a mysterious contract from the ancient dungeons of the mysterious Eastern Country, it is rumored that in ancient times, the most powerful sword saint in the East in order to pursue a more otherworldly sword, he once stood at the end of the world under the oath, and was only loyal to the sword all his life. When the oath was issued, a ray of light from the end of the world shone into his sword, forming the mysterious [Swordsman's Oath].
Rhodes had joined the Sword Sect of an ancient school in the East to finally obtain this ancient oath skill.
It is said that a famous legendary scholar once studied this oath, and from this mysterious oath he discovered a trace of powerful divine power such as justice, contract, and protection, and it is also rumored that this contract contains a little of the most precious power of the origin of the rules.
The most domineering thing about this oath is that it can be with any creature, regardless of rank and race, as long as the conditions of the contract are met, the contract can be established immediately (i.e., forcibly expel other negative states), and no external force can break the contract, unless the contractor voluntarily breaks the contract.
"Give me the contract!"
Rod felt the crazy drop in experience points, and the whole person kept shouting in his heart.
Click!
A crisp breaking sound sounded, and the egg in front of Rhodes was bathed in the light of the imperial covenant oath like a white lotus that had faded from dirt, and the layer of black mist wrapped around it was like an eggshell, constantly making a crisp breaking sound, and then falling down one by one.
A faint glow flashed over the eggshell.
Under Rod's increasingly ugly face, there was not a drop of experience left in his entire attribute panel, and even a third of the experience that he was reluctant to use when he fought [Annihilation of Nerbe] was not left at all.
And that's not all.
That egg is like a bottomless black hole, and it continues to consume the experience points he already has, and if he continues like this, he will fall off the level!
- "Contract! ”
Just when Rod was about to give up, a light of contract containing countless information flashed, and a drop of water shining with multicolored light flew out of the eggshell and directly reflected in Rode's eyebrows.
This is the feedback of the Imperial Covenant.
Contracts are always exchanged, and since Rhodes drips a drop of blood from his fingertips and shouts of contract, correspondingly, if the existence inside the egg responds to the contract, he should also respond with a drop of blood.
"Three years?!"
Rod gritted his teeth and glared at the egg, and the whole person collapsed in an instant.
He consumed a chance to [Emperor's Oath], and then wasted a lot of valuable experience in the early stage, and the feedback he got was that the existence inside the eggshell would be loyal to him for three years.
It's a big loss!
This is Rudes' most sincere heart.
You must know that the biggest role of [Emperor's Oath] is not a contract pet, its strongest thing is that it can contract with a sword. Many sword saints in the Eastern Sword Sect will issue a [Swordsman Oath], they will practice a sword wholeheartedly, it can be said that sometimes the sword is more important than their lives. And the sword weapon of the [Emperor's Oath] contract is a rare existence that can be constantly nourished with its master, and finally evolve.
A Juggernaut who can use the [Emperor's Oath] is definitely a respected one in the East.
As far as Rhodes knew, there would be one or two super swords in the ancient sword sects in the East that surpassed the "epic level", which were terrible weapons comparable to nuclear weapons, which often could not be forged, and only a sword saint who spent his life swearing a sword could be born.
In the later stages of "On the Eve of Jihad".
Many ancient ruins in the East have emerged, and there was once an ancient evil creature whose strength was comparable to that of a god, the kind of existence comparable to the sage of the world, who destroyed the world with his might, and was killed by an ancient rusty iron sword when he invaded a certain sword sect.
That is the sword of the "super continent" level.
This kind of weapon is often the ultimate essence of a sword sect, and after Rhodes learned the [Emperor Oath], almost half of the sword sects in the East threw olive branches to him.
"Good! The contract is established! ”
Rod tried hard to calm his mood, and almost squeezed out the sentence "the contract is established" from between his teeth.
Although [Emperor's Covenant] is not a one-time skill, its cooldown time is surprisingly long, and each time it is used, the cost of the next time is almost doubled, and it consumes some mysterious power within a swordsman.
It is said that the strongest sword master in history has only used it three times in his life.
Bite!
The moment the contract was established, the indescribable mysterious human form bloomed with dazzling light, and in an instant, two rays of light shot at Rhodes and the egg respectively.
After feeling the indestructible contract connection in the depths of his heart, Rhodes pulled the corners of his mouth, walked up to the altar angrily, kicked the shell with his foot and said, "Are you dead?" Come out if you don't die! ”
From the moment the contract was established, Rod clearly sensed the powerful vitality in the egg.
Although he was very happy to get a strong partner, he still felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of this partner signing a contract for three years.
Click!
With the sound of eggshells shattering, the giant egg in front of him, which seemed to have some faint gold veins on the surface, was slowly opening.
"Boom ......"
A little soft and cute voice sounded, in Rod's somewhat embarrassed eyes, a little girl about thirteen or fourteen years old was lazily rubbing her hazy eyes, the little girl probably just woke up, muttering a cute sound in her mouth, looking very cute.
What embarrassed Rod was that this girl was naked!
"Huh? Angel? Mankind? ”
After the embarrassment, Rod saw the girl in front of him clearly, and immediately had some doubts.
She's not a human being!
The little girl squatting in the dome, her soft and dense black hair was casually scattered, and her big eyes blinked when she just woke up, revealing a bit of ignorance of the world, if it weren't for the pair of black and white wings behind her, anyone would think she was a cute little human girl.
Behind her, there are two wings of different colors, one black and one white, as if dark and light are intertwined, and the little girl squats softly in the eggshell, the two wings half-cover her, and a little white luminescence and wisps of black smoke alternately linger around her. Her delicate little face was full of confusion and cowardice, and with her weak and sweet temperament, Rhodes had no doubt that someone would mistake her for an angel who had fallen into the world.
"Sure enough, it's a terrifying angel!"
When Rod saw the little girl's soft and confused expression, he couldn't believe that this was the extremely powerful terrifying angel, but when the pair of strange wings behind her came into view, he had to admit that the fierce strong existence holding the angel sword was indeed so weak when he was young.
"Diana?"
Rod let out a tentative call.
After confirming that the creature in front of him was the existence that initiated the ruthless slashing of the demon, Rhodes really didn't dare to be as rude as he was just now, looking at the little girl's naked appearance, he shouted weakly in his heart.
The little girl ignored him.
At this time, the people were gnawing on the broken eggshell, and they didn't have the time to pay attention to Rod.
It wasn't until Rod shouted again that she slowly turned her head holding an eggshell, as if she didn't react to who "Diana" was, the little angel's little head was tilted, and a pair of big black eyes were blinking at him.
The innocent, curious, and goofy expression made Rod froze in awkwardness.
"Isn't Diana her real name? Did O'Neill take it later? ”
Rod muttered in a low voice, he was a little hairy in his heart by the little angel's staring, and now he was a little at a loss. Now it's not right for him to call her Diana, it's not right to call her not, and a flash of inspiration flashes in his mind when he is in a dilemma.
"That...... You don't have a name, do you...... How about I get you one? ”
Rod looked at the little angel with a blank face, with a strange smile on his face, and there was a sense of excitement on Rode's face at this moment. After half a ring, the little girl still didn't react, and Rod happily began to help the little girl think of a name, a girl should have a cute name, how featureless a name like "Diana" is.
After a long time.
"Shin Shin?" Racking his brains, Rod asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, the little angel nodded his head slightly, which made Rod a little overjoyed, and it seemed that Rod felt that he had unearthed a rare specialty - [Naming Specialty].
In fact, as a four-series sword god, Rhodes' talent for naming has always been complained about by many people.
In the past, Rhodes himself had built a lot of weapons, but as a legendary forger, the weapons created by Rhodes were not very popular, and the most critical problem was that Rhodes' talent for choosing names was really not flattering.
What are the names that others give to their weapons: [Shattering Cannon - Dirodas], [Flame Sword - Scorching Sun Verdict], [Soul Chaser Claw - Nara Time and Space]......
However, Rhodes named the powerful weapons he forged, and there were more horizontal ones like [The World Can't Be Forced - Happiness Lasts Forever], [Little Overlord - Endless Fun] and the like, and most of them were called [Ergouzi's Sword], [Knife Worth 500 Terra Stones], and [Door-Cutting Iron Rooster's Halberd]......
A weapon like him, which is willfully named, even if it is created, not many people dare to use it. Otherwise, when playing a group of dungeons, someone else threw a [item identification] over, and when they saw such an embarrassing name, it was really embarrassing to throw it home.
The most important thing is that these names were not deliberately ridiculed by Rhodes, but he really thought so, and he sincerely thought that the name was good.
