Chapter 57: Ragnarok
The footsteps of the "Rustle ......" Ring (Venia) team as they walked through the jungle were heard, but no one spoke. Even Venia, who is a little noisy on weekdays, sat quietly on Lin Xian's back, and the atmosphere was a little depressing!
Two days had passed since we set off from the elven village. Now that a few people have entered the periphery of the dark elves' territory, they may encounter enemies at any time, and everyone's spirits can't help but tense!
Perhaps it was a psychological effect, Lin Xian felt that the light in the forest seemed to be getting darker and darker, and the branches and leaves of the big trees that covered the sky and the sun shrouded the sky tightly. Even the animals are becoming fewer and fewer, sometimes you can't hear a birdsong and beast roar after walking for a long time, and the silence in the forest is a little weird!
"Why can't the forest elves live in peace with the night elves? Aren't we the same race in ancient times? Pretending to be deep was not Vinia's style, and she finally couldn't help but speak.
Although Capone didn't have a good attitude towards Lin Xian, he was sneering as soon as he opened his mouth, but he was still very good to Venia, and patiently explained to her: "The Night Elves changed their faith in ancient times! In the end, it caused the division of the elven clan, which was the main reason for the collapse of the powerful elven empire! ”
"We're not the same as the elemental elves, aren't we? Why can't you treat the Night Elves like the Elemental Elves, just don't interact with each other? ”
"Although we have different beliefs from the elemental elves, we still belong to the side of the gods. The Night Elves, after Ragnarok, threw themselves into the Abyss Demon God for great power! So there is no way for us to coexist peacefully with them! Capon said righteously!
This is the second time Lin Xian has heard the word "Ragnarok", and the last time he heard this term was in the Wolf King's inheritance magic crystal! He had a hunch that the disappearance of the aura on the earth must have a lot to do with "Ragnarok"!
What exactly is Ragnarok? Although he knew that Cappen didn't like him very much, in order to solve the mystery, Lin Xian still asked cheekily.
Cappen was really impatient and said, "Are you stupid? As soon as you hear "Ragnarok", you know that it is a battle between the gods of the two camps of light and darkness! ”
What's the difference between this and not saying it? Lin Xian was secretly sulking, but there was nothing he could do about Capone.
Martha was still kind and hurriedly explained: "In ancient times, many gods in the two camps of light and darkness had a conflict, and it finally evolved into a great war! In the end, the gods of the dark camp were defeated and almost all of them fell! And the gods of the light camp have also suffered heavy losses, and the few remaining gods have also fallen into eternal sleep! He has not been seen again! ”
After a pause, she seemed to feel the need to explain more clearly, and continued: "Since the disappearance of the gods, the ancient demon gods who were previously driven into the abyss by the two sides of light and darkness are gradually recovering! Although the Night Elves used to worship the gods of the dark camp, they were able to live in peace with other races. But in order to pursue great power, they threw themselves into the arms of the abyss demon gods, and then they fought against the major races, and were finally expelled to the underground caves! ”
Although Martha's explanation was already quite detailed, Lin Xian still had too many questions that could not be answered! For example, the origin of the contradiction between the gods, the origin of the abyss demon god, why the gods of light fell into eternal sleep, and so on. It's a pity that Martha doesn't know much about these things, and it is estimated that no one in the world can figure it out, after all, too much time has passed since ancient times......
The more questions he asked, the more helpless Lin Xian sighed secretly. There is a way, we can only see if there is a chance to solve the mystery in the future.
"I think you and the major races on the earth are too narrow-minded, even if the night elves convert to the abyss demon gods, there is no need to drive everyone underground, right?" Even dare to say such a thing, of course, it can only be Venia, it seems that her faith is not as pious as Capon!
As expected, Capon's face was flushed with anger when she heard her mouth full of running trains! Fortunately, Martha hurriedly grabbed him, otherwise it would have looked like she would have beaten Vinya!
"Venia, don't talk nonsense! Although the Abyss Demon God has awakened, he can't get out of the abyss at all! Their connection to the Night Elves is through sacrifice, and the most brutal of blood sacrifices! In order to benefit from the Abyss Demon God, the Night Elves made a large number of sacrifices, killing the population of countless major races with blood! That's what drove them into the underground cavern space! Martha reprimanded Venia.
This time, Venia was trained to have nothing to say, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to express her opinions indiscriminately!
Of course, it is almost impossible to keep Venia shut up for a long time. No, it didn't take long for her to speak to Lin Xian again: "You crossed the sea from the far eastern continent, and in your continent, did the gods also have a great war?" ”
"Oh, the battle that ended up together never happened. The biggest war is called "The Battle of the Gods", ...... "Suddenly, Lin Xian was a little stunned!
In the ancient legends of China, there was also a great battle between the gods, that is, the "Battle of the Gods"! This great battle took place before the detailed history of China, and it was also passed down through word of mouth! Since the "War of the Gods", all the gods and ghosts who originally lived in the world have been sealed in the heavenly court, and they can no longer appear in the world at will! These have many similarities with Ragnarok!
And the [Eight or Nine Xuangong] he cultivated was the housekeeping skill of Yang Jian, the god of war in the Battle of the Gods! But I don't know what the War of the Gods has to do with Ragnarok, and what does it have to do with the changes in the earth's aura? Lin Xian suddenly unfolded his association whimsically, forgetting what he was saying.
"Hey! What's the matter with you? I won't talk about it halfway, it's too appetizing, right? Venia's dissatisfaction suddenly woke up Lin Xian, who was out of the world.
"Oh...... There were also great wars between the gods on the Eastern Continent, but not as tragic as the Scann Continent, and in the end the gods reached an agreement and lived in peace from then on. "It sounded like a fairy tale, and the prince and princess were happily ever after......
"Yo, the gods on your Eastern Continent are quite civilized, and there are a lot less disputes now! But why did your gods start fighting? ”
"It's because the denominations are different...... Well, it was for the sake of faith that the battle began! Lin Xian patiently explained.
With Vinia's gags, the journey of several people is not lonely. Even entering the territory controlled by the Night Elves has reduced the sense of depression a lot.
As the sun sets, the jungle gets darker and darker. Everyone decided to find a place to rest for the night, although everyone wanted to get to Otenia as soon as possible, but after all, the Night Elves were the most suitable for stealth assassination, and the night could be considered their home field!
The night in the jungle was pitch black, and you could barely see your fingers. A crescent moon hangs high above the night, but it doesn't bring much light, and there is a faint light in the clearing, which can be regarded as the only light source in front of you!
Capong quietly stared at the small bonfire in front of him, and the flames were jumping happily! Lin Xian and Venia were already asleep next to the campfire, and he was the first shift of the vigil tonight.
Capon picked up a piece of dead branch and added it to the fire, watching as the flame grew stronger. Suddenly, a human figure emerges from the shadow behind Capong! Holding a pitch-black dagger with no reflection in the slightest, he stabbed him in the back of the heart......
