Section 18 Fairy Ruins II.
Before the Human Era, the continent of Fernanda was a time of glory for the gods. After Sivi's creation, he left Faynand, leaving behind the gods to rule over the moon and stars and this beautiful continent. All ethnic groups coexisted, and although there were disputes from time to time, they were generally stable. With the exception of a few visitors from the Otherworld, Fernand's creatures faced only three factions of enemies.
The first is the demon of the abyss, due to the structure of the plane, the demon of the abyss is closer to Fernan than the devil of hell. Therefore, there are few cases in history where the devil has invaded Fernan on a large scale, but the demons are ready to move. These warmongers are engaged in a ten-thousand-year holy war against the devils in the Great Rift Valley at the bottom of the plane, while trying to expand and invade other planes. The second camp is naturally the Ulthur Plane controlled by the Mother of Ulthur, because she is jealous of the Lord of the Dawn and the Witch God being believed by humans, she single-handedly founded this terrifying plane and many monsters, vowing to destroy the whole of Fernan, which is also a well-known thing.
And the last camp is the evil spirits of the void plane. The evil spirits do not have a unified form, and it is difficult to determine their strength - the only thing that scholars know is that these evil spirits are a very ancient race, unintentionally released from the wormholes of the other world by the ancient gods, and since then they have roamed the void plane near Fanan, constantly sucking the life force of the plane to maintain their own life.
It is said that every 6,000 years, a great race will be born in the camp of evil spirits, and a great king will appear in this race. This king is called the King of Spirits by the evil spirits, and in the prophecy passed down by word of mouth among the purest evil spirit races, it is mentioned that the great Spirit King will lead the evil spirits to drain the power of the entire Fernan Continent, so as to open the [Road to Return] - it is said that the evil spirits are an outcast creature, they lost to another powerful race in a battle, so they were expelled and left their homeland through a wormhole to come to the vicinity of Fernan. True demons are constantly eager to return to their homeland, but to do so, they must destroy the entire continent of Fanan.
That's why the gods are always afraid of evil spirits, these guys may not be particularly strong, but their existence is constantly absorbing the power of Feinan's plane. For every more evil spirit in this world, the power of Fernan's world will decline by one point.
"Legend has it that the firmament of the heavenly realm is not like Faynan, an old tree that has grown for hundreds of millions of years covers the sky, and that ancient tree is called the heart of the world by the gods. The branches and leaves of the Heart of the World symbolize the vitality of the Fernan, and if the Heart of the World begins to wither, then it means that someone is sucking the vitality of the Fernan. Only evil spirits can do this. Duran walked through the ruins as he talked to the girl beside him about some rumors about the place. Duran had so much knowledge in his head, and he said a lot of things that even Jane, as a princess, had never heard of.
The girl's eyes widened, and she gradually forgot that she was in the mist of the fairy ruins, and when she heard Duran say this, she couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't I know these things before?" ”
In fact, there was another sentence in her heart that she still asked-why even the self-proclaimed omniscient Magic Mirror Addigh didn't know about these things!?
You know, it is said that Adig is the spirit of an artifact that the witch god has personally ignited, and his knowledge is as rich as that of almost any ancient Dioguron or Elven King.
"This kid must have made it up! I can see that this guy wants to soak you. Edig chattered wildly in Jane's heart.
Jane ignored Adig's noise and just looked straight at Duran.
Duran didn't dare to meet Jane's gaze, he turned his head away and said lightly, "It's not important. Don't you want to know what I said about what I said about it and what it seems to have nothing to do with this place is for? ”
Jane nodded, "Of course I want to know what the evil spirits, the heart of the world, and the ruins of the pale elves have to do with each other. ”
The two of them came to a fork, and at some point, a fog suddenly rose from the fairy ruins. Duran smiled slightly, casually walked around, and said as he walked: "The relationship is very close, do you know that six thousand years ago, the evil spirits poured into Feinan and almost occupied the entire Feinan? ”
Jane shook her head, the history of six thousand years ago, not to mention humans, even the dragons and elves were just as unfamiliar. Diogu's dragons have only been active in the continent of Fernan in the last thousand years, so the dragons are not particularly proficient in Fernan's history.
"No race has ever been able to wreak so much havoc on Faynan, demons and, of course, dragons." Duran didn't deliberately avoid this sensitive topic, he just said calmly: "Although the dragons ruled Fernan, they didn't blindly destroy it; Although the demons have successfully invaded Fernan many times, the climate is always insufficient, and the devils on the side always like to drag them back, so they have failed so many times; As for the Mother of Osser, there is no need to say more, there are naturally people who can compete with her. But that time the invasion of evil spirits not only greatly damaged the vitality of Fei Nanshang's race, but what was even more terrifying was that even half of the gods in the heavenly realm had fallen! ”
"For a long time, the Celestial Realm has not recovered, so it is necessary to use the [Muthida of the War Dragon] in the next demonic invasion. The fall of the gods led to the rise of humanity, but it also made Fernan more vulnerable. I'm afraid you know the rest of the story better than I do, the dragon soul of the dragon that died in battle will not be gone, and it will attract the dragon of the last day of your dragon people to the ...... of Fanan."
"But that's not the point we're talking about today. The point is, do you know why that demon invasion was so powerful? ”
As the two walked along, they turned a corner and came to an open flat field.
In the mist, a tall stone monument standing in the flat ground could be faintly seen.
Duran smiled and walked forward with Jane. At the same time, he also gave the answer in the form of self-questioning:
"Because there was a terrible race among the evil spirits of that year, and there was another great leader in that race!"
"That race is called the Pale Elf, and the leader is the King of the Spirits of the Evil Spirits, to be exact, the Fifth King of the Spirits, Douro. Guy. This guy is a genius, he was originally a Turin goblin, he was born at the height of the power of the Turin goblins, and he was hailed as the leader of the next Turin goblins at birth. It's a pity that everything that happened later shocked everyone, and he had the seed of an evil spirit buried in his body, so it was logical that he turned himself into an evil spirit during the coming-of-age ceremony. ”
"He was the first Turin elf in the world to turn into an evil spirit. He hatched a conspiracy to destroy the city of Turin, leaving the elves uprooted and displaced, and most of the Turin goblins were transformed into evil spirits by him, and their bodies became taller and their complexions were strangely pale, so they were called pale goblins by later generations. ”
"Many people think that the Pale Elves are just a bunch of oathbreakers, when in fact, they are evil spirits."
With Duran's calm narration, the two of them had unconsciously approached the tall stone monument.
"This is ......" Jian looked at the tall stone tablet in front of her, revealing a look of shock.
"You're right, the elven ruins of Grand Pudding City, considered a desolate and useless place, are actually the burial place of Durogue, the fifth king of spirits."
"And this stele is the tombstone of the King of Spirits."
Duran stood calmly in front of the tombstone, on which was painted a large rune in the color of blood. The two of them were so close that the rune was like a monstrous mouth of blood, which could break away from the tombstone at any moment and devour them.
"Hasn't this tombstone been found before?" Jane was a little incredible.
Duran shook his head: "No one can find out here, because no one can bring them in." See that fog? It's not just fog, everything in the ruins moves, and whoever breaks into this place, as long as they keep moving forward, they will be able to get out of this place. ”
"Then we can find this tombstone......"
"Of course someone is leading us." Duran smiled: "I originally just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect the story I told to really work." ”
Jane's mind was obviously spinning quickly, and she immediately guessed Duran's intentions: "So what you said before didn't mean it to me?" ”
Duran shrugged, "If that man doesn't lead us in, it's just storytelling." ”
Before his words fell, a calm voice ethereated from afar:
"Tell me a little more...... ...... about the man Story ......" (To be continued.) )
