Act 170 The Legacy of God's People I

The three worlds in the dream should be ordered in chronological order. The room in which he lived in the first dream was the ancient parchment of the Mithril Society, which was written in the ancient parchment scroll, which was described as follows: 'It is located in the middle of the four directions of heaven and earth, above the golden clouds of clouds, on which are palaces carved of gold and jade, on which robes of silver people walk, and the bells of the clouds are ringing, and the hymns are lingering. 'All of them fit perfectly with the scene he saw in his dream, the eleven tall and handsome human beings should be gods, but it could also be a certain golden race-although the Babel Fortress is a silver city, there are also gold races - although in the current era, the golden race is only a dragon, but in the tens of thousands of years before the destruction of the Babel Fortress, there were many golden races on the land, and most of them were sealed under the dust of history, It's like the ancestors who buried their bones in Valhalla.

However, Brando still thinks that the gods are more likely, the gods have black hair and golden eyes, which is very consistent with the legend of their description, although the golden eye color is the most famous external feature of the gold race, but the black hair gold race is very rare, as for the later Miner people's eye color is actually almost between amber and agate, like a golden-red flame, not a solid color.

What's more, according to what was seen in the later pictures, it seems that the Miner people and the gods were originally very related.

As for the three words of the Truth Society mentioned by those tall and handsome human beings, it was not the first time that Brando had heard of it, and Ovena had mentioned that the authority on his body was the Inheritance and Truth Society, but she did not say which of his abilities this authority came from. Later, when he occasionally spoke with the Dark Kova, the eldest daughter of Isis had inadvertently revealed some information about the Truth Society. Before the destruction of the Babbel Fortress in the Silver Age, and even further back to the time of the First and Second Wars with the Dragon of Dusk, it was a time when the gods were still on the earth—a glorious age, when the gods and Martha together created Vaynd and the gods and ruled the world. Like the gods in the pantheon, the gods belong to several organizations, the most important of which are the Society of Truth, the Tribunal, the World Tree (which he suspects to be the predecessor of the Druids of the World Ring and the Sky Ring), the Earth Guard, and a Gaia will that has never been revealed to the world in legends.

It's just that Brando can't tell from the situation at that time whether the 'truth' in the mouths of those tall and handsome human beings refers to 'him' or 'them', and if it is the latter, then these people must be God's people.

The second world in the dream world. It should be the destruction of the fortress of Babel, the scene of the sixth war, when the knights of Azure pierced the sky and caused the stars to fall to the ground. The dragon that stretched across the sky was undoubtedly the projection of the Dragon of Dusk in this world, and although it was only a glimpse of a dream, it also left a deep impression on him, and the golden-red eyes above the clouds were so similar to the kind of coercive aura he had seen in the sky over Port Fatan that day. He was almost certain that it was the will of twilight that had been induced.

The destruction of the fortress of Babel put an end to the age of the gods, countless texts and documents disappeared from this catastrophe, the fragments of civilization were scattered on the earth, the generation of silver trekked through the wilderness, and the civilization almost completely collapsed and destroyed miè, which followed for ten thousand years. It took a prophet to lead the Minr to re-establish their empire in the Black Forest. Although the Knights of Azure were the first generation of dark dragons, they left an extremely important legacy to the Minr people. However, there is no literature on what exactly this inheritance is, and the mainstream of today's historians is that the Azure Knight should be the earliest Miner, and what he left behind is likely to be the golden bloodline of the Miner.

In other words, long before the Miner empire was established, the Minr had already existed on the earth, and roamed the wilderness with the rest of the Silver People to regain the fire of civilization. This speculation is also in line with the development and reproduction of civilization. The establishment of an empire cannot be achieved in a day, just like the silver elves and the Buga, the empire of the Miner people has also grown in the ignorance of countless years, and their strong bloodline has laid a solid foundation for the strength of their empire, so there is the later Mardos who stood on the land of Vaynd.

The third world in the dream reveals some secrets for him. These fragments of memory may be viewed in several different eras. Walking through the cloudy mountains, which must have happened before the first generation of Miner fled to the Great Plains, after the destruction of the fortress of Babel, civilization and order fell apart, the Miner and the people of silver fled in all directions, and the fire of countless civilizations was lost in the wilderness: 'The noble people have forgotten their noble and elegant past, lost in the earth, they have taken refuge in the mountains and forests, and have gone through a long time, forgetting the past, and moving forward in ignorance and thorns. It is this passage recorded in the poem of Cangzhi.

Then civilization sprouted in obscurantism, and he saw countless believers worshipping reverently to the altar towering in the sun, the birth of worship and superstition, the reverence for the gods who walked in the sky, in fact, the reverence for order, and the seeds of civilization bloomed again in superstition and mystery after thousands of years.

But this history is an age-old mystery in Vajnd's orthodox historiography, and some of the documents on the parchment scrolls from before the Battle of the Sages invariably refer to the same word – the prophet – when describing this history. 'The Minr appeared on the land, and a prophet led them across the Great Plains to establish the first civilization in the field of today's Clover after the gods were far away from Vainde, and this was the Minr Empire, which was also the beginning of the mortal era. 'There are undoubtedly exceptions to similar descriptions among the Silver Elves, the Bugats, and even other peoples that existed at the time: the legend of the Buga records that a traveling mage (Brando thinks it should be a traveling mage, because the description is very similar to the legendary Matatanians, who have the ability to travel from world to world) teaches mortal magic to the present generation of the Shining Silver Bay generation—a precursor to modern magic as distinct from the ancient string magic used by dragons.

The story of the Silver Elves includes the legend of the prophet 'Harodil', which has even been passed down to this day, and some legends describe Haroldil as a graceful stag as huge as a mountain and a snow-white body, so it is today in the south of Cruz and Eruin. The white deer are also believed to be a symbol of guidance, believing that they can guide lost hunters out of the forest.

These legends clearly point to the possibility that there were people who artificially spread civilization in that era, and that these people were most likely the druids of the World Ring, as Brando saw them using the blood of the gods to create monsters and miners in the last few fragments. The Minr were the last of the Golden People of the previous era, and unlike the Dragons and other golden individuals, the Minr were far inferior to their predecessors. They only have two most obvious characteristics as the people of gold, which are also golden blood and eye color, and the second is that they will directly enter the realm of golden body after perfecting their bodies.

However, the juveniles of the Miner were extremely weak, and the average strength of the population was far inferior to that of the other golden races, and they also had a large ethnic group, which was once spread throughout the territory ruled by the Mardos Empire, and formed dozens of legions, such a population that most of the golden people could not match.

According to the record in the poem of Cangzhi -

The People of Gold were born from the blood and corpses of the gods, created by the gods.

Then the next qiē can be explained.

The Druids of the World Ring were once the most important guardians of order in this world, monitoring the spread of the Black Forest on the borders of the civilized world. And take root in the fire. According to the Mithril Society, after the destruction of Babel's fortress and during the War of the Sages, there were two major divisions in the history of the Druids, especially the latter one, which gave rise to a special group of tree herders, who once followed Odin and established the terrifying army of tree herders, after Odin's defeat. They were torn apart and went underground, when they reappeared in this world. It has been transformed into a madman-like organization.

In contrast to the Unification of All Things, which are also cultists and rivals of the Four Great Temples, the Shepherds worship the power of Chaos, but only power, and they are obsessed with stealing the blood of the gods in order to gain the power of the gods and try to control the whole world, so the world thinks that they are a bunch of crazy people.

But speaking of which. When did the tradition of the shepherds make oracles originate?

The fragmented images in the dream seem to provide the answer.

If the druids were already using the blood of the gods long before the split, and this time can even be traced back to a long time after the destruction of the Babel fortress, then it makes sense. The bloodline of the gods tended to be severed after the destruction of the fortress of Babel, and may have begun to decline even before that - Odin had the blood of the gods. But it was not pure, but the fact that a bloodline like him was able to become the leader of an ordered world in that era is enough to show the decline of this bloodline.

The decline of civilization forced the Druids, the guardians of order, to choose a different path: to use the blood of the gods to bring them back to the world. But I also know how difficult it is, even in the glory days, the gods were only a race that created gold from the corpses of the gods.

In this respect, the druids were a success, creating the Miners, the most distinctive people of gold, but at least they were the bloodline of gold, and in a sense, the druids of the World Ring exercised divine authority.

This is what he sees in the third world of his dreams.

However, Brando's belief that the druids were going to create a race of gold with their own hands was a bit fanciful, and he was more inclined to another guess: that the druids were fulfilling the unfinished path of the forerunners. In other words, before the destruction of the Babel Fortress, the only surviving gods may have been working on continuing their bloodline, but this real yàn is likely to be interrupted or failed due to the invasion of the Dusk Dragon.

Judging from the age when the Azure Knight was born, he is likely to be the work of this real yàn, that is, the first generation of Miner people, and the most perfect Miner people.

After the destruction of the fortress of Babbel Miè, the spark of civilization and the countless documents that had once been stored in the city of glory were scattered and scattered, some of which were carried out by the refugees, but most of them were lost during the thousands of years of exile of the Silver People. And the last of the gods and the people of the gods were also scattered on the earth, and the druids of the World Ring who survived later probably did not know how to get a word about this plan through guò, and then re-completed it.

Among these Miners, the bloodline of the Azure Knight has been passed down from generation to generation, and it can be said that they are the purest inheritors of the gods, until the fall of Odin, the end of an era was announced.

Brando remembered what he had seen of the druids' monsters escaping into the forest, and he suddenly remembered something.

The passage hidden in the poem of the sky is about the end of the era of the people of silver and the rise of the people of black iron. How did the people of black iron come to be on the earth? Suddenly, he remembered the famous question, one of the most discussed in The Amber Sword, that the silver and gold races were from the hands of the gods, and now the Minr people also had their origins, but what about the people of Black Iron? According to historical records, the people of Black Iron were subjects and slaves under the Miner at the beginning of their birth, first as barbarians in the forests and mountains, and later influenced by the empire and had their own civilization.

This is where the people of black iron come from in history.

According to this theory, the people of black iron should be native to the black forest, and it seems that this is indeed the case from the records on the parchment scroll - the people of black iron were called mongrels by the people of silver and gold in the earliest era, because these barbarians who came out of the forest had the same dark magic as the monsters and the twilight species, and in the eyes of the true beings of order, they should be essentially the same as monsters - especially since the people of black iron in that era had no civilization of their own, no language and no writing, There are also humanoid monsters in the Dark Forest, and the barbarians don't look much different from them in every way.

However, there is one biggest difference between the people of black iron and the monsters, that is, they are real beings of order, they can sense the power of the elements under the law of Tiamat, and can ignite the fire and develop the elements, which is the most basic characteristic of the people of order.

This has been proven by the fact that the people of Black Iron quickly integrated into the world of civilization in the era that followed, and took over the torch of civilization from the remnants of silver, which continues to this day.

But are the people of Black Iron really native?

Brando's mind repeatedly reproduced the scene when the druids created the Minr, those robed and powerful sages, they created all kinds of monsters, giants surrounded by lightning, monsters with flames, and superhuman-like beings with all kinds of abilities, and hundreds of failed works were immediately killed, a few trembling Miners were abandoned by them in the wilderness, and some monsters who escaped by luck fell into the group of civilized creatures, and some caused wars, Some are worshipped as gods.

These monsters, they have a common name, they are called oracles.

It's like Akane, as if it's a storage zài like himself.

Brando shook his head slightly, deciding to filter the mixed thoughts out of his mind, as there were so many guesses that some of them were impossible to judge. These chaotic thoughts seemed to rush into his mind as he woke up, and he keenly felt the shadow of the blood of the dark god behind him, which means that this part of the memory should be from the blood of the dark god, and it seems that the so-called dark orb is really not as simple as it seems.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at Sidney on the side.
