Chapter 4: Sword Service
At this time, the golden light began to converge, and Salter began to be able to open his eyes completely, and sure enough, the holy sword had disappeared, and where it was originally located, there was a person standing, not an old man with a white head and sideburns, nor a tall and mighty warrior, but a young girl?
The girl had long, silky silver-gray hair and a delicate, slightly childish face. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info her body, wearing an elegant red and white robe, beautiful and refined, and her skin as white as snow, standing there, like a living Valkyrie, from head to toe, seems to exude a kind of holy spirit.
"Who's calling me?"
A sound as melodious as a silver bell sounded, and the girl opened her sapphire-like eyes, staring at the mysterious magician who called herself the Witch Raphael.
"Is that you?" the girl pointed at Raphael Witch with a look of majesty and anger in her eyes.
Raphael the Witch shook her head, and at the same time pulled her head cover down,
"No, it's not me who summons you, it's ...... This era!"
At this time, Salter finally saw the original appearance of Raphael Witch, the imaginary old age and color decay did not come, she had a big purple wavy hair, and a fairly beautiful face, if Salter had seen her before, he would have admired her beauty, after all, he had never seen such a beautiful woman when he was so big, but at this time, compared with the girl incarnated by the holy sword, Raphael Witch's face was inferior. Her holiness, her elegance, was like a chasm between man and God, which was difficult to bridge.
"Could it be that the seal of the Gates of Hell has been broken?" asked the girl in surprise.
Raphael Witch shook her head, "No, the gates of hell are sealed perfectly, and there is no sign of opening them yet, and now people are about to face a more serious challenge than they were at the beginning." ”
Hearing this, the girl couldn't help but be stunned, and Salter was naturally shocked. The continent has maintained relative peace for thousands of years, although there have been countless wars, the rise and fall of countless dynasties, but these are only civil wars between human beings after all, and the war five thousand years ago is different, it is a war that endangers the life and death of all mankind, a battle between one world and another world to the death, at that time, it can be said that seven brave men saved the world, otherwise, human beings may all be reduced to the stomach of the cannibal monsters, and this world will no longer belong to human beings.
It was arguably the greatest crisis humanity has ever experienced, but now, the Witch of Raffi says that the situation will be worse than it was then?
Raphael Witch continued: "This time, we are still facing the invasion from another world, this thousand years, the continent of Calamilan has been full of new monsters that we have never heard of, in the year 3185 of the Milan calendar, in the lake on the border of the Kingdom of Dillanca, a silver strange whale appeared, in 3564, on the island of Dodorca, someone witnessed a green phoenix that can burn the earth, in 3877, the same flaming flying squirrel that did not know where it came from, destroyed the tribe of the wood elves... ... Of course, there are many more, I won't list them all, but what we do know is that those monsters come and disappear quickly. And strange things like this have happened a lot in recent years, and it seems that the previous ones were just temptations, but in fact, they are waiting, waiting for the most suitable time to take over this world in one fell swoop!"
"Since they haven't done anything for so many years, why do you think they would now?" asked the girl, puzzled.
Raphael Witch sighed, "Because the current reserves of magic crystals are not as good as before, the war of five thousand years has made the original abundance of magic crystals to the current situation of short supply, maybe it will not be long before the era of magic will end, and now, it is a veritable era of the end of the law!" Five thousand years ago, people were inspired by magic crystals to discover magic, and finally won that battle with the help of magic, but now, we are facing an unknown enemy, and all that is left is the strength to survive, how can we defend our homeland?"
The girl's eyes widened, and there was a kind of anger in her expression, and she said with a little reproach: "Five thousand years have passed, and the human race still hasn't been able to find something that can replace the magic crystal?"
"It used to be true, although people have tried many materials, but none of them can play the same role as magic crystals, but now it's different, your presence here means that my idea is correct, and we still have hope!"
The girl was puzzled, "Hope, you expect a person who has lost all his strength to bring you hope?" Although I don't know what method you used to help me reshape this unstable body, I can feel that my strength has not returned, besides, as you said, what is lacking in this era is magic crystals, not capable people, I'm sorry, even the original me, I don't have the ability to make magic crystals. ”
"No, while it's true that you can't make magic crystals, you have abilities like this, have you ever thought about a question? At the beginning, the seven brave men lodged their souls on the seven artifacts they had originally used, and it stands to reason that sealing their souls is also a kind of magic, and it should be regarded as a high-level magic, in this case, this magic should be lifted when the magic power of the magic crystal you used when you first cast it was exhausted, but today, five thousand years later, you can still stand here, what does this mean? It means that there is a power in your body that symbolizes eternity!"
The girl was startled, and then nodded thoughtfully, "Indeed, I have been wondering about this question for a long time, I remember that five thousand years ago, the day before the Holy War, the seven of us had the same strange dream, in the dream, we saw an old man, he told us that we had broken through the mortal bloodline and advanced to a more noble class, and asked us if we would like to get rid of this chaotic world immediately. In the end, everyone rejected him in their dreams, because we were burdened with the hope of mankind and had no choice to escape, and you should know the rest of the story, the demon king was defeated, the monsters were killed, and the gates of hell were sealed by us for a long time...... Yes, why did this gate of hell be sealed to this day? Judging from the amount of magic crystals we consumed at that time, it could last for two thousand years at most, so what is the power that allows its magic power to last to this day?"
Raphael Witch smiled, "This is the theory that it took me three lifetimes to study, I applied the body shaping method I used when I was reborn to you, so that you can reappear in human form, and at the same time, you can also change back to your original sword appearance, because this is just a superposition of spells, and the soul sealing technique you originally cast has not been lifted, but now you can't cast any spells, after all, your body is only half human." Then, if you want to exert your eternal power, you must use the hands of others, such people, I call them "sword soldiers"!"
