"Ninety-Nine Years' War?" Durand's heart sank.
This war is a big mystery in the history of the plane, the casualties in the war are too great, and many of the secrets of the war are buried in the fire and flesh and blood, and have not been handed down.
Durand didn't know much about the Ninety-Nine Years' War, except that it was a huge war between humans and aliens. On the human side, the domain of the Knights of Eternal Radiance is used, and on the alien side, the Ancient Giants are used.
The two sides fought for a full ninety-nine years, and as a result, the giant clan was wiped out, and the pure power rules of the direct guidance plane were damaged, and even all the races and professions related to the power rules were weakened, and the Cheng dΓΉ was different.
Looking at the contents of the title page of this scholar's note, it is ...... Is there still some heavy secret hidden in that war?
"It's interesting." Durand became interested, settled down, turned the title page, and began to study it carefully.
The scholar who wrote the notes was chronicling and organized, but probably because they were just notes, the information, arguments, and research were a little cumbersome and trivial, and the writing was not very formal.
Durand looked very carefully and meticulously, and gradually, a picture of history began to unfold in his mind.
According to the notes, before the outbreak of the war, at the end of the Solar Age, the dynasty established by the Sun Elves had long since existed in name only, and was finally destroyed by the joint efforts of Yonghui and the giants.
Then the question arises: the old king has been defeated, who will be the new king?
It was almost an irreconcilable contradiction, and both Yonghui and the giant thought they could overwhelm each other, and the war exploded with a bang at the same time that the solar age was completely over.
The war broke out quickly, and both sides didn't seem to have any intention of staying, and they fought several fierce battles in a row as soon as they came up, and as a result, the scale of the war expanded rapidly, and the other races of the big 6 were also affected. And then evolved into a big 6 war between humans and aliens.
"Hmm......" Durand frowned slightly, so far, there is not much difference between what is recorded in the notes and what he already knows, but there are just a lot of research records.
However, a sentence in the next note caught his attention: "...... As the battle heats up, both Yonghui and the Giant are on fire, and the first paladins make an appointment with the Giant King, and the result is a dead end. We have reason to believe: in that earth-shattering war. Both sides showed off their artifacts. β
Artifact?
And is it that 'both' and 'both' showed off the artifact?!
Durand was surprised inexplicably, the implication is that not only Yonghui has artifacts on his side, but also on the giant clan? In addition to the Yonghui cross gun, there is actually another artifact on the big 6?
He hurriedly continued to read, but the scholar's notes did not mention anything about the artifact, and began to describe the outcome of that pinnacle battle:
"The outcome of the battle should be a dead end. After so many years of research. As well as the survey of several possible battlefields, the first generation of paladins should have fallen behind. Although the final result was not decided, the paladin may have suffered irreparable injuries in that battle. In the middle of the war, the Terrans led to Yonghui gradually fell to the disadvantage and retreated to the fortress of Sicily, which is located at the eastern foot of the present-day Sicilian Mountains. β
Duland's brow furrowed even tighter, "The giants have artifacts". It was already a big shock to him, and Durand had always thought that Yonghui would win because of the big advantage of having an artifact.
Now this scholar actually said that Yonghui fell to the upper hand in the middle of the war, and the casualties should have been not small, and he was barely able to stabilize until he retreated to this fortress called "Sicily".
So how did Yonghui win in the end?
Read on:
ββ¦β¦ The turning point of the war occurred sometime between the sixty-sixth and sixty-eighth years of the war.
In the sky, an extremely bright light suddenly lit up.
Yes, light, and it is very, very, very bright light.
Here I have to emphasize three times in a row. Because a few years ago, my colleagues and I explored and studied the rock formations of that period, and judging from the process of burning and crystallizing the rock layers, the brightness of that unexplained bright light may be far beyond our imagination. Among the various alien races, there is also a saying that 'the second scorching sun guides the people of the zhì tribe to be blind in large numbers'.
In short, there was a bright light in the sky without warning. No source, no reason. Urgently, it is a big 6 ...... Not even including the violent concussions of the ocean around the Big 6!
The shock ripples are widespread, ranging from ...... It's so big that we can't even measure its energy level! Because it's too big! That time. It seems that the entire coastline of Big 6 is bursting with a tsunami! The earth cracked, the mountains shattered, as if the end of the world was coming!
After years of research, we have speculated that the bright light in the sky is caused by an explosion, and the concussion is the shock wave caused by the explosion. This is the most likely explanation.
But what happened to cause such a strong explosion? Could it be that two stars collided with each other outside the plane? β
The more Durand looked, the more fascinated he became. He had never heard of the explosion in his notes.
At the same time, he also felt a little puzzled: explosions, strong lights, and shocks should seem to be some kind of terrifying disaster that affected the entire Big 6, why was it called "the turning point of the war" by scholars?
The note quickly gave the answer: "After that explosion, it seems that nothing happened, but I always thought that something must have happened."
The giants inexplicably began to retreat, defeated again and again, that feeling...... It's as if all the previous advantages have turned into bubbles overnight, and with a light poke, they burst.
Yonghui began a counterattack, fierce and cruel. Over the years, I've found more than one big pit buried a lot of giants all over the Big 6. The autopsy showed that most of them were buried alive - apparently by Yonghui's army.
In the ninetieth year of the war, the main army of the Giant Clan was trapped and killed, and the first generation of paladins fought against the Giant King again. The course of the battle is difficult to verify, and the result seems to be that the Giant King blew himself up and died, and the Paladin was seriously injured.
It is said that the Yonghui Cross Spear was also damaged in that battle, but this claim has been refuted by many scholars, as the Sifang Sihuizi artifact seems to have been conceived after that battle. If the Yonghui Cross Gun is broken, how can a broken artifact still give birth to a child? I agree with this statement.
In the next nine years, the remnants of the Giant Clan were mass-culled and cleansed, until the ninety-ninth year of the Ninety-Nine Years' War, when the last giant on the Big 6 was killed, and the Giant Clan was wiped out, and the war came to an end. β
At this point, the notes have almost turned to the end, and a large amount of evidence that has been repeatedly examined, as well as a lot of information, all strongly support the scholars' descriptions of the war, and no one can believe it.
"But that's weird...... isn't it," Durand bowed his head and muttered.
After an explosion, the giants began to retreat, what is the reason?
According to the description in the notes, the Giant Clan was dominant in the first half of the war, and no major strategic mistakes were made during the war, and then there was an inexplicable violent explosion in the sky, and the Giant Clan suddenly died?
After thinking about it for a while, Durand didn't come up with a reason, so he continued to turn to the last few pages of the notebook.
On paper, there are many questions and hypotheses raised by this scholar, as well as a general list of many mysteries of the war:
ββ¦β¦ It was a strange battle, and there were so many things that were difficult to explain. The biggest suspicion is the sudden defeat of the giant clan. In addition, the whereabouts of the giant artifact have also become a major historical mystery.
One of the most credible theories is that the Giants' artifact was completely destroyed in a collision with the Yonghui Cross Spear, and then shattered into countless pieces. This result is distressing. β
Reading this, a thought suddenly flashed through Duland's mind.
His face changed several times in succession, and he took out a small object from his bosom, which was the same small fragment that had been taken from Hedson's body.
"Could it be that this little thing is a fragment of the Giants' artifact?" Duland's face turned a little exciting.
Previously, he slashed this fragment with two blades, but he couldn't destroy it, which shows its high hardness.
You must know that the sub-artifact can't resist Duland's knife slash, and the Xihui Cross was cut off by Durand's own hands. This small fragment could carry his full strength. In this way, it is really possible that this fragment was peeled off from the artifact of the Giant Clan.
