Chapter 1 The First Arrival
The melodious bell, with the heaviness of antiquity, rang until twenty-three times and finally slowly stopped, and the majestic momentum continued to wash this eternal milky white world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The door of the temple was finally faintly presented in front of this dusty outsider, even if it was far away, the enormity of the milky white stone door was quite shocking, and a suffocating sense of oppression came to the face.
The outsiders who had been walking hard against the blizzard stood still, looking at the oracles who had been waiting in front of them for a long time, quietly waiting for the ritual to begin.
The spokesmen of the gods dressed in milky white holy clothes, wearing milky white hoods, hide their whole bodies in the darkness, just like the words left by the sixteen saints, if you want to destroy the darkness, you must be in the darkness.
The outsider makes a fist with his left hand, his back and back, his right hand extends his index and middle fingers, which are fingered at the heart area, and his right leg is slowly bent and he kneels down on one knee.
Twenty-three prophets moved slowly, seemingly shaking the blizzard into scattered directions with each step.
They stopped not far from the outsider, drew the knight's sword from their waist with their left hand, and stood in front of them, stretching out their index and middle fingers with their right hands, pointing at the place of their hearts.
Then the eleven on the left and the eleven on the right spread out to both sides, surrounding the outsiders in the middle, like the stars holding the moon.
The spokesman of the gods, who was standing directly across from the outsider, finally spoke slowly.
A slightly hoarse male voice spread through the air.
"The path of light must pass through darkness. ”
"Cowardly hearts, cowardly people. ”
"They will be turned away from the light and lost in darkness. ”
"Huh!"
The sharp sound of a sword slicing through the air rang out, pointing the knight's sword in his hand at the outsider.
"Do you have this kind of awareness? ”
Twenty-three people rang out in unison, and the majesty shook the heavens and the earth, and at this moment, the blizzard stopped abruptly, as if it had never been here.
"I would like to offer my body to the sun to make it warmer. ”
"I would like to give my soul to the moon to make it brighter. ”
The outsider lowered his head in a deep voice, and the index and middle fingers on his heart suddenly erupted with intense light.
The golden and warm flames danced slowly above his fingertips, and then the flames spread all over his body, and the cotton clothes on his body also began to burn, but they did not hurt the skin of the outsider in the slightest. In an instant, between the vast heaven and earth, it seemed that only the sun with light remained, reflecting the outsiders wrapped in the golden flames, dispelling the darkness in everyone's hearts.
Suddenly, a murderous aura shook the snow under his feet and flew away.
"If you betray, you will be punished. ”
The sound of sonorous words and the sound of swinging swords sounded at the same time.
"If I betray, my soul will be scattered to nature, and my soul will return to heaven and earth. ”
From the golden flames came the slightly hoarse voice of the outsider, trembling a little but so sure.
Then the bodies of the twenty-three prophets burst into golden flames, reflecting each other.
The light became more and more intense, and the entire summit of Vernas was shining brightly for a moment, and there was light between heaven and earth.
The Prophets put away the knight's sword, and the golden flame slowly extinguished as if it were a flash in the pan.
With the fleeting light of light, the heavy, long bell rang out of the temple and returned to the earth.
The temple stood for hundreds of years on the top of the hill of Vernas, unbreakable, and it was in the light.
The highest mountain in the human territory, which has been covered with ice and snow because of its high altitude, is the closest to light and the closest to darkness.
After the Nightkin "Holy War" was crushed by Konas Rainakot alone hundreds of years ago, the Nightkin were defeated and finally retreated to this place.
Knas, with his two companions who had just succeeded in the transformation, had a final confrontation with the Queen and Duke of the Nightkin here.
The summit of Vernas was razed to the ground by the battle, and Kernus and the Queen of the Nightkin disappeared during the battle, leaving the two Prophets seriously wounded, but eventually lived up to their expectations and drove the enemy out of the mountain.
Finally, on that unquiet night, humanity reclaimed the last of its territory at the hands of the Nightkin
In the darkness, the struggling human beings finally ushered in a new dawn.
The temple was erected at that time, and as time passed, more and more people became prophets, and the chaotic situation on the continent finally gradually stabilized under the strong strength of these sixteen prophets.
But no matter how powerful human beings are, they can't compete with fate after all, and their life and death are unknown in various battles.
To this day, the teachings of the Sixteen Saints are still engraved on the stone gate and sung for future generations.
In this long history, the ritual that has just been completed is so inconspicuous that it is like a stone thrown into the sea, which ripples and then is forgotten.
It seems that the tranquility of this ice and snow world has never been broken by anything, only the broken mountain top shows the remnants of the past war.
The majestic palace still stands as serene as ever in the pure world, isolated from the world.
But somewhere in the palace, Hao's heart kept churning, and today was his first day as a prophet.
The only thing in the big room was him in the pool, and the huge pool that occupied almost two-thirds of the entire room.
The pool was surrounded by smooth rocks of various sizes, and a set of milky white clothes was neatly folded and placed on the stones not far from Hao.
In the surrounding mist, you can still faintly see the milky white walls, and the dark red wooden door on the shore not far away, which is out of place with the wall, and nothing else.
Hao, who had just regained his senses, subconsciously looked around, and the soreness coming from his body made him stretch hard.
Let the rusty bones work again, and after a crackling sound, a feeling of comfort spreads throughout the body.
"Prophet, hey!"
Hao sighed and said no surprise, the woman who had a deep holiday with him should also be here, and I am afraid that my life will not be good in the future.
He picked up the water in his hand and splashed it on his face to keep himself from thinking about it.
Before coming here, the family mentor had instructed him in the ritual, but no one had told him what to do after that.
Hao frowned and stood up, but he was in a daze, but suddenly found that the water attached to his skin disappeared immediately.
As if it had never appeared, curiosity made Haohao sit in the water and stood up again and repeated experiments several times, and found that it was not his own delusion, just when he was researching vigorously.
A slightly hoarse male voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Hello newcomer, my name is Jasco Breel, you can call me Jasco." ”
The sudden sound startled Hao, and before he could react, the voice came out of his clothes again.
"Your mentor has been waiting outside the door for a long time, good luck!"
The abrupt voice threw down a few words and fell into calm again, leaving Hao who was standing in the pool, a little at a loss, guessing what kind of person his mentor was, he didn't dare to delay any longer, held the rock with his hand, and jumped to the shore hard.
With the force of his legs, a huge force that even Hao himself didn't expect came from the soles of his feet, and with a huge sound and splashing water, Hao's whole person had already flown into the air.
"Ah~"
After an exclamation, followed by a muffled sound, he was lying on all fours on the ground and gasped heavily, obviously throwing him a little dazed.
Falling from such a high place, there was not much pain, and it made him a little different, he touched his dizzy head, and stood up from the ground naked.
The dizziness gradually subsided, and Hao remembered that his mentor was still outside the door, and he didn't dare to ink any more, so he put on his clothes with three and two strokes.
In a panic, a stone half the size of the baby's palm suddenly fell out.
The color is very conspicuous, gold and milky white blend together, it is very good-looking, Hao didn't have time to take a closer look and quickly picked it up and stuffed it into his pants pocket, walked quickly through the tiled floor not far away, and nervously pushed open the wooden door and walked out.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw a stout man leaning on the milky white wall and laughing to himself, and the smile was inevitably a little obscene.
As soon as he saw Hao come out, he immediately became serious, thinking about it, maybe he heard the sound of Hao falling down just now, and thought of something, it seems that he seemed to have had a similar experience when he first came here.
"Hey, hello boy, my name is Levin Tai, you can call me Raywin, I will be your boy's mentor from today onwards. ”
The man briefly introduced himself in his rough voice, and walked quickly to Hao and stretched out his big fan-like hand, and stretched out his hand for a moment, just about to touch it, the man quickly withdrew his hand and laughed, Hao looked at the stout man embarrassedly, it seemed that his heart had not grown up, and he was still making this kind of unnutritious joke.
The man also seemed to notice that his joke was a little cold, so he withdrew his laughter, coughed dryly, patted Yan's shoulder and said, "Don't be too restrained, boy, we will get along for a long time in the future!"
If it weren't for him still looking at himself, Hao wouldn't have known how many times he rolled his eyes, not that he was restrained, but really not funny at all.
Hao could only smile and nod his head.
"It's still early, I'll take you around here," in order not to embarrass the two sides too much, Lei Wen quickly diverted the topic, turned around and walked out, and waved his hand to signal Hao to follow.
Following behind Lei Wen, Hao kept scanning the surroundings, trying his best to find some topics, and in this place where there was no sound, the atmosphere was cold and almost frozen.
This huge empty passage made him really unable to find anything to say.
The incandescent hedron on both sides of the passage caught Hao's attention.
"Old ...... Division...... Reven, what is this?"
The first time I spoke, I was nervous and stammered.
Lei Wen looked back at the spar that Hao pointed to, and hurriedly introduced it, he was originally a person who couldn't stand the embarrassment, and hearing the topic that Hao finally came up with, it was like a person in the water grabbing a life-saving straw.
"This kind of thing is called a source stone, which can absorb the source power of the Prophet, and the effect is different after being injected by different Prophets, as for these source stones that can emit light, they are all made by Jasco. After saying that, the two fell silent again.
"I don't need to add a teacher next time, hahaha" Raven laughed dryly and sneered haha.
Hao also smiled dryly and nodded, not knowing what to say.
This weird atmosphere almost tortured Hao crazy, but in fact, Hao didn't know that the strong man in front of him was the same.
No matter how many enemies Lei Wen dared to rush forward, but this inexplicable embarrassment made him powerless.
Just when the two of them didn't know what to do, a light different from the surrounding source stones flickered in the distance.
Raven, who was walking in front, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and walked even faster.
As they continued to walk, the end of the passage finally appeared in front of the two of them, and a huge marble statue stood in the center of the hall in the distance, and the carved man stood in his arms and filled the entire space.
The windows at the top of the hall allow the sunlight to shine on the statue, and it is not covered by snow, and directly above the statue, you can faintly see a large number of large light stones inlaid to make the whole hall quite bright.
The drab colors of the place are filled with gold and milky white, and heroic hymns are sung.
It wasn't until he got closer to Hao that he felt the enormity of the statue, standing there like an ant, and the feeling of oppression in his face made him a little unable to breathe.
The flower garden composed of unknown flowers at the foot of the statue was so large that it would take him a long time to walk around quickly.
I don't know when, Lei Wen has already stood by Hao's side, patted him on the shoulder, and pulled the stunned Hao back from the shock.
Hao's body trembled, his mouth was open but he didn't know what to say, the hero who saved mankind in front of him was his ancestor, in their family, he heard stories big and small, countless, all teenagers dreamed of becoming a man like him.
Not only his own family, Kernus is almost everyone's admired hero Knath, when everyone is desperate, he dispelled all the darkness like the sun, stood up, and fought against the entire race alone, and his strength was so strong that he destroyed the world.
The first time he saw the man he had admired for sixteen years, Hao's breathing couldn't help but be a little tight.
Raven glanced at him and laughed twice, turned to sit on the stone on the periphery of the flower garden, and beckoned Hao to sit down beside him.
Hao was stunned for a moment, walked over slowly, and sat down next to him.
"Do you know about the cross wound in front of Kernath?" said Raven, deliberately looking at Hao.
Hao nodded in reply, "I guess Knath left it behind when he fought against the Nightkin "Whether it's a rumor or something else, Hao will be the first to understand and remember the story of Knas.
Raven looked at the fanatical Kernas fan in front of him and shook his head regretfully.
"There are so many secrets among the prophets, and so much time has passed, and many things have been rumored beyond recognition. ”
Raven hesitated for a moment and then continued, "The wound on his chest was cut by himself!"
"Yourself?" Hao looked at Raven in shock.
"Yes! At that time, it was much more dangerous to become a prophet than it is now, there was no testing equipment, and the drugs used for transformation were also newly successful experiments, so they could only be clinically tested in hundreds of people!"
"It's Kernas and his lover Fye Suter! You know! If you don't get through it, your body will collapse, it's hell!"
"I still used this dangerous thing in my time, so I've seen it with my own eyes, and the people around me have been like after they have failed. Hao looked at Lei Wen's side face, and he actually saw fear in the eyes of this iron-clad man.
"Can you imagine the skin and part of the subcutaneous fat falling off the body, the blood-red man struggling on the test bed, and then the muscles start to swell and burst apart little by little?"
"The first person to awaken successfully is not Knas! it is his lover Fei, but it is not completely successful, her body survives, but her spirit collapses!"
"It was a complete massacre, there were no other survivors but Knas, another man who had succeeded in the transformation was completely torn to shreds by her, she was too strong. ”
Fei Wei, who lost his soul, did not attack Kernas, and when Knas successfully transformed and woke up, he only saw his lover standing in front of his bed looking at him, covered in blood. ”
"And then!" Hao saw that Raven stopped and hurriedly asked, he already had a bad premonition.
Knas, who sat up, looked at the stumps and body fragments all over the ground, and looked at the woman in front of him in a daze, not knowing what was happening. ”
It wasn't until he watched that Fei Fei pounced and tore apart the experimenters who had just arrived. Kerners tried to stop him, but he was too weak. ”
When only the two of them were left in the entire laboratory, the crazy Fei finally stopped. ”
Knnas cried and hugged her tightly, only when he was close, Fei was so calm, let him hold but did not resist, the woman who had lost her soul still remembered her former lover deeply. "Hao's nose is a little sour, and the power of love is really incredible sometimes.
In the end, Kerners could only cry and look at Fi's unfocused pupils, grabbing his lover's heart and crushing it. ”
"Probably, no one can understand the heart-rending feeling. Raven sighed, his eyes already twinkling
Knnas placed Faye on the ground and took off the necklace of the metal cross on her chest stained with blood, which was a token of promise he had given to Faye, and he used the cross to leave the mark of his lover on his body, and then burned the cross to ashes with the source force. ”
"Why?" Hao choked up, "why did he do this." ”
He probably felt that this cross was stained with Femin's sin, so he wanted to keep the sin on himself. ”
Hao listened in a daze, he didn't understand love, but Lei Wen's interpretation let him know that this was love.
"This is from Kernas's diary, from the time he disappeared, when he was sorting out his things, I will always remember Knas's words, from now on your sins will be borne by me. ”
Lei Wen turned his head to look at Hao and sighed, "Sometimes love is really great!
Hao was deeply shocked, he had a lot of thoughts but couldn't say a word.
He prayed for the rest of all those who died for this at that time, and also lamented the love between Knus and Fei.
Hao looked at Lei Wen, who was a little low, and grinned his chapped lips, "Anyway, your story is really good!"
"I haven't had your turn to comfort me!" the two looked at each other.
There was a tacit understanding and a bitter smile at the same time, and before I knew it, the estrangement that belonged to strangers had disappeared.
"Don't be sad, I'll take you to other places to see, there are too many stories here, I'll tell you all if I have the chance. With that, the two of them got up and walked out.
Before I knew it, a large figure had disappeared into this hall, and perhaps the next person who could leave a story here was now growing rapidly.
