Act 151: The Song of the Mortal World I

"Miss Nimesis!" The silver elf princess Medisa pushed the door open and entered with her spear in hand, and saw the black-haired female knight turn around and put a finger to her lips and make a silent gesture to her. Medisa was slightly stunned, and there was an inquiring look in her eyes: "What's wrong?" "She had been attacked by several witches outside, and after dealing with the battle, she found that the sky had fallen dark over the entire port of Fatan, and she was afraid that the enemy had also infiltrated the house, so she hurried in but saw the scene now. Nimesis didn't speak, and an eerie hum echoed in the silent library, and the two looked down on the knight's waistbag.

The female knight's waist pouch trembled slightly, and something seemed to come to life inside, making a slight low sound. With a wary look, Medisa asked Nimesis if she needed help, but Nimesis shook her head, she seemed to have thought of something, hesitated slightly, and then put her hand on her fanny pack and flicked the button. The tremor was amplified, and a silver light source slowly rose from the knight's waist bag, and Metisa finally saw clearly, it was a silver metal disc, which slowly rose from its waist bag with a tremor and radiated a dazzling light in all directions.

"War Slate!" Metisha immediately recognized this thing, it was the same war tablet they had found in Vargus earlier: "This is ...... What's wrong? ”

"Eternal Night...... War Slate...... Awakened. Nimesis muttered to herself, a hint of panic flashed on her face, and she subconsciously took a step back to get out of the way, but a ribbon of light had already shot out from the silver disc, hitting her forehead, "Miss Nimesis-!" At Metisa's panicked shout, the female knight tilted her forehead back slightly. Her whole body rose into the air, and the scene was like the beam of light that hit her forehead and made her float in the air, her body leaned back slightly, her black hair was windless, flying in all directions, her eyes were closed. He frowned and looked pained.

……

Everything is plunged into darkness.

Brando looked up at the sky.

It was a pitch-black sky, like a black hole that swallowed a qiē, without stars or moon, and without the slightest light. Heaven and earth seem to merge together, vast and boundless, without up and down, like the scenery before the opening of the world. However, on the vast land, there are still the lights of civilization, and the cities, towns, and villages near Port Fatan have all risen at this moment, one by one. Lit up from near and far, it is like a string of sparks that connect intelligent beings from different places, races, and languages. The fire was scattered across the earth and lit one after another along the long coastline of the sublime inland sea.

That's civilization.

A lonely and proud civilization.

Brando didn't speak, and Miss Merchant, in a rare way, didn't say a word, and Kouhua didn't say a word, when she saw many more nobles appear in the courtyard. Silently retreated into the darkness, and in the courtyard of Nuoda, no one made a sound for a while. In everyone's eyes, such a scene was reflected, as if the stars were falling to the ground. Reflected in the depths of the black, brown, or blue eyes, the lonely and dark earth is like a lifeless wilderness, but the light of the fire above the wilderness is enough to comfort everyone's heart.

Presumably, many, many years ago, when civilization came out of the wilderness, when the thunder first brought down the fire and made it burn in the wilderness, the eyes of the ancestors were also reflected in such a fire.

That fire, ruined, can bring warmth and light.

It seemed that a moment had passed, but for those present, it seemed as if a lifetime had passed, and suddenly, another brilliance was reflected in someone's eyes: "Look, look at the heavens! People screamed. In the dark sky, there was nothing at once, but now it seemed to become a mirror, this mirror stood opposite the vast earth, and reflected the scattered points of light on the ground, which were sparse at first, then dense, and gradually connected, as if the stars had fallen, shining in the dark night sky.

But it soon became clear that it was not a reflection, but a real group of fallen stars, which were connected one by one, as if the shattered star region was moving in mid-air, dragging its long tail, and in an instant the entire sky was lit up with stars.

That moment is a spectacle that many people will never forget.

Everyone held their breath, their mouths wide open, and their eyes unblinkingly watched the incredible scene. But only Brando, who seemed indifferent, even had an indescribable look on his face, because of this scene......

He'd seen it before.

The first falling star finally hit the ground, a shimmering arc of light that fell from the sky, and the bright light drew a straight silver line in the dark night sky, pointing in the direction of the mountains east of Metz. But the second, the third, and in an instant, there seemed to be a silver rain of light in half of the sky, and the whole world, the whole world, was shrouded in endless silver threads, which lit up the night sky, shining blindly, and then fading away, and then rekindling by another falling star.

The age of the sword has come, so the stars have fallen to the ground, and the knowledge of the sages has been returned.

It was the year of the Spark in history, and Brando remembers the year that the game opens its third chapter, the Slate Wars. It was a decade before the resurgence of Isis, and that year of eternal darkness had come and the slate had appeared.

……

In the White Rose Garden of the Cruz Empire, the imperial capital, Constance reflected the bright starlight in her eyes, and Her Majesty, the queen of the empire, laughed loudly in the rain of light.

"The curtain has opened, our time has come, Esmeralda—"

……

Valhalla, the World Tree Fortress, Freya stared dumbfounded at the slab that Brando had given her, the slab that had nearly saved her life in the Dead Frost Forest and given her some magical powers, but after that, it had fallen silent again, and no matter how much she studied, it no longer showed any power. It's like an ordinary stone slab. However, at this moment, the slate suddenly rose from her desk, and golden bytes flashed from the slate, and the words appeared twenty-four times in turn, and after twenty-four characters appeared. Suddenly, there was a 'click', and a huge crack opened in the slate.

"Ahh Freya exclaimed, although this stone tablet has not been sanctified since then, but no matter what, it was also a gift from Brando, not to mention that it also saved her life, she originally planned to take good care of it, but she didn't expect it to crack on its own. She was frightened at once, and hurriedly pressed the slate with both hands, lest it continue to play with it like this, and she would be torn apart by playing with it—this was the most valuable gift Brando's gift to her!

But her hand hadn't had time to touch the slate. In her frustration, the slate crumbled into several pieces, and a golden light shot out of the slab and hit her forehead.

All Freya remembers was that before she fell unconscious, she vaguely saw a golden disc shoot out of the stone slab.

Then she felt like she was in a dark world.

Then a voice echoed in her head:

'Number: Battle000000032A bookshelf, pedigree, prefix V, battle gear system. Inheritance of Combat Skills——'

'Inheritor, the bloodline of black iron - the bloodline is compatible. ’

'Inheritance begins ......'

……

Northern Eruin. Lion Plateau, Wolf Howl Forest, Bresson. Habqi struggled to drag his unconscious comrades out of the pile of black wolf corpses one by one, wiped the blood from the white lion's armor, and then looked at the silver triangular fragments floating in the air not far away. Not long ago, he and his comrades were patrolling the forest when the sky was completely dark. Then it was suddenly attacked by the black wolf pack, and when it was almost wiped out, thanks to the silver fragments from the sky, the black wolf was all killed, and then it was suspended motionless in mid-air.

"Anyway, I still want to thank you." Breson raised his head: "But what exactly are you, what is going on in this outside world, you must have something to do with the previous changes, right?" ”

He muttered to himself, not expecting the thing to answer him, but at the same moment as he finished speaking, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the triangular fragments, and a translucent projection fell on the snow.

"Hello, mortal, I'm Luxis, or as you're used to calling - you can call me crystal."

……

"Mortal, I allow you to call me Alphes—"

"Before you is the end of all things, blue."

"I'm blazing."

"We will abide by the contract and return the lost knowledge to the inheritors of civilization......"

"A new cycle has begun......"

"You will face the end of the day, accept my knowledge, mortals."

From the mechanical city of Ortuste, to the Tower of the Stars, from the Palace of the Lion, to the Temple of the Ten Saints, from the vast plains of Nazel in the west, to the rolling mountains of St. Osor on the winter solstice, from the shore of the Silver Bay where the stars gather, to the alliance of the ten cities where the cold wind howls, at this moment, countless such scenes are being staged over and over again, one by one starlight descending from the sky, from the knowledge of antiquity, since the destruction of the Babel Fortress and the inheritance scattered on the earth, this moment finally returned to the world.

The slate of war, in Brando's cognition, came to this world half a century in advance.

World order.

Eventually, turmoil will begin to rise.

At this moment, in a small private library in Port Fatan, Nimesis was letting out a terrible scream: "No...... Don't, I refuse! At that moment, the black-haired female knight seemed to see a stream of light rushing into her mind in a dark world, countless information, pictures, characters and law lines filled her memory, as long as she put her mind into these information, she could understand that these were the highest civilization from the previous era, and it was the most important part of the inheritance that order was lost on the earth, but Nimesis didn't want to accept these inheritances at all at the moment, she only felt panicked in her heart, Gritted his teeth and tried to resist.

But this resistance is powerless.

The switching of images quickly became rapid, from these flickering lights and shadows, she saw the ancient wars, the clash between dusk and order, the establishment of this world by the gods, the migration of the Matatanians between the stars, the mother of the first light of the creation of zào, and then she saw more, the destruction of the fortress of Babel, the change of times, the birth of the people of black iron from the wilderness, the battle of the sages, the establishment of Eruin, these images overlapped each other, she almost had time to remember, and they flashed before her eyes.

Then she saw her birth, and the scene seemed to be split in two, and she saw two worlds, one world, she was born into an aristocratic family in Eruin, and she received a good aristocratic education and knightly training since she was a child, and she practiced desperately, and grew up, as if to break free from a certain predetermined fate. In another world, she was born in a strange room, it was a pure white room, surrounded by strange instruments, a group of people in white robes surrounded her and her frail mother, who were still young, and then she saw her own experiences of growing up, being a child, a girl, and learning times.

Unconscious, Nimesis sobbed slightly, tears running down her closed eyes.

"I ...... No...... Replaced ......"

"I'm ...... Nimei ...... Ciss ......"

"I'm sorry ......"

Metisa's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, no longer advancing half an inch.

But for a moment, the black-haired knight slowly opened her eyes, and there was a strange sparkle in her eyes that Medisa had never seen before, and she lowered her head, and was silent for a moment, before she raised her head again.

"Sophie ......"

A name that the little silver elf princess had never heard before was softly pronounced from the mouth of the female knight.

……

After the stars fell, the distant horizon, on the horizon, was still pitch black.

Brando stared in that direction, as if waiting for something to happen, and no one in the courtyard made a sound, no one knew what had happened before, they looked at each other, no one understood why the sky had suddenly darkened, and where had the sun, moon, and stars gone? And what happened to the meteor that crashed to the ground before? Roman curiously shook Brando's hand, and Brando turned around and patted the back of her hand gently, signaling that she didn't have to worry.

This is the eternal darkness that comes before the twilight comes, and then there will be an eternal night that lasts for seven years.

Vaynd's original order will be completely upended at this moment.

But he wasn't too worried.

Because he had experienced this qiē himself.

He looked in the direction of the horizon, but in a moment, a ray of silver light suddenly rose from that place, the silver light was like a slowly rising silver line, it slowly rose, and when it rose to the top, a dazzling spot of light spread out from the tip of the silver light. Then many of these silver beams rose from far and near, and they soon joined together, one by one, one by one, and the shining silver lines crisscrossed the air, forming a mysterious pattern, and there were characters flashing in the pattern.

Flame.

Daes, sacred.

Latton, Life.

Vio, light.

As if at the beginning of the world, Martha descended from the sea of magic with silver threads of law, crisscrossing and weaving the code of law called the world. The scene now plays out over the entire world, crisscrossing silver threads, connected to each other, and then shining with a warm, sustained light.

There seemed to be a solemn chant in the darkness, a mantra and a soft chant, and the sacred notes drifted over the world, echoing over the whole of Vaynd, and in this song, the darkness in the sky dissipated in the light, and the sun, the blue sky, the clouds, and the breeze, only to reappear over the whole world after a moment.

This is Martha's last blessing to her people, the mortal song.
