Chapter 763: Dark Fire
For ancient times, when technical means were very scarce, it was very difficult to build such a tower, after all, there was no machinery. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There is no tower crane to transport the building materials directly to the tower, but it is all by manpower, little by little, the polished huge stones are raised up.
To build a massive structure, at least in ten years, the Tower of Darkness is clearly one of the largest structures in the land.
In the absence of an elevator, climbing the spiraling stone steps to the top of the tower step by step is a time-consuming and laborious task.
It is also thanks to Lin Ye's southern and northern battles in the past few years, and his physique has improved a lot, if it was his small physique before, he would not be able to withstand this kind of toss at all.
With the torch in his hand, he kept going up the stairs, and there were no windows in the staircase, so he couldn't see outside the tower.
It was pitch black all around, and the only thing that could light the way forward was the land between the inches projected from the torches in his hands.
"If you connect the clues you have now, you will find that there is a looming line, the Black Fire Family was born in the distant Eastern Continent, not to the east of this Miracle Continent, but to the Miracle Continent and even further east, across the continent on the other side of the vast ocean. ”
"For some reason, the Black Fire Family traveled a long distance from the Eastern Continent to the Far East, where they took root and began to recuperate, this time node is about a few hundred years ago, I have read the ancient books treasured by the Black Fire Family, the so-called 'Black Fire', is a very special existence. ”
"Let's understand it as a kind of magical energy for the time being, this should have been brought from the ancient Eastern Continent, and on the west side of the Miracle Continent, that is, in this chaotic land, two churches were also born hundreds of years ago, the ancient Church of Light, and the Dark Holy See, jointly preaching. ”
"The Church of Light will not discuss it, the place where the faith of the Dark Holy See is condensed, is the dark tower that has been established, and the symbol of supreme faith is the huge brazier at the top of the tower, and the black fire burning in the basin has always been the symbol of the Dark Holy Court, and it can be called enduring for hundreds of years. ”
"However, according to Elder Tatya, this enduring situation is only relative, and there are several times in history when the black fire has been extinguished, and the black fire needs to be replenished every few decades, and the person who replenishes the fire is from that remote family in the Far East. ”
In other words, the black fire mastered by the Black Fire Family in the Far East is the fire of the Dark Holy Court to condense the power of faith, and there is a very close connection between the two. ”
"That little-known remote family in the Far East has a very far-reaching influence on the Dark Holy Court, which has a huge power in this land, and to some extent, it even grasps the lifeblood of the Dark Holy Court, which is very interesting, plus this time node. ”
"May I come up with a bold idea that the people of the Blackfire family came to this land and founded this ancient church? ”
"But due to a certain sense of responsibility or something, every few decades, a generation of heirs will come to this land to continue the fire of black fire, but time will not stay long, the previous heir Lin Nandu is like this, but if you start from this idea. ”
"A family that was able to establish a huge church on the mainland, a family that helped Raymond overthrow the Aries dynasty and establish an empire, and there must have been traces of this family member many times in hundreds of years of history, obviously with such power, but willing to lie dormant in the Far East for hundreds of years. ”
"And speaking of which, isn't the number of people in this family a little too rare, under normal circumstances, a family has multiplied for hundreds of years, there should be a huge group, and there should be a lot of all kinds of relatives, but the Black Fire family seems to have been a single lineage in history. ”
"I also found a very interesting phenomenon, that is, whenever the heir of the Black Fire Family reaches the age of forty or fifty, when he is in his prime, he will mysteriously disappear and his whereabouts are unknown, Lin Nandu is like this, his father, and his father's father are also like this, there is no trace of them on the mainland. ”
"According to common sense, influential people like them shouldn't be so low-key, so where do they be...... I guess there is only one place, that is, through the Bay Gorge area, back to the Eastern Continent, the homeland of the Black Fire Family? ”
Lin Ye connected all the time nodes together, and after adding his speculation, he came to a conclusion that surprised him.
"But if you want to explore the distant Eastern Continent, it will have to be many years later, and what you need to do now is to light the fire on this dark tower, is it finally there? ”
Lin Ye finally walked through the long staircase until he reached the top of the tower, with stars above his head and large candlelight looking down.
Countless pairs of pious eyes were looking up at him below, even if the light was faint in the dark night, it was difficult to catch him from such a height.
But Lin Ye could clearly feel the expectation contained in those eyes, and in front of him was a small square.
The floor of the square is covered with a dense and intricate pattern based on black, and four statues are located around it.
The carved figures are of various shapes, which are much more hideous and ugly than the images of the Holy Mother of God in the Church of Light.
In the center of the statue, a huge brazier is clustered together, and Lin Ye follows the path to the edge of the brazier.
"It looks like this is where the black fire is going to be lit, but if you want to light the fire...... According to the method that Elder Tatya said, this is all that is needed, right? The only way to ignite the black fire, no one else can do it, only the heir of the Black Fire family can do it. ”
Lin Ye stretched out his left hand and aimed it at the huge brazier, while his right hand felt a dagger from his waist.
This is the dragon slaying dagger he once bought at the auction house in the royal capital, the blade of the night, the blade shines coldly under the moonlight, and it is extremely sharp.
"A sharp dagger that can cut through even dragon scales, it's easy to cut through fragile skin, so burn it, the dark fire that has been silent for thirty years, with the hottest blood, guide it to the hottest flame, the black fire comes. ”
Lin Ye cut the palm of his left hand with a dagger, and the blood instantly spilled down and dripped into the middle of the brazier.
