Chapter 2: The Demon King's Relic
Ender's castle is located on the periphery of the Sunset Mountains, which stretch for thousands of miles from north to south, like a giant dragon lying across the westernmost part of the Continent of the Gods. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Bidding farewell to Murphy and leaving the castle, Ander walked a mountain trail before he suddenly stopped, raised his left hand, and looked at a ruby ring on his left index finger with burning eyes. Among the inheritances that Gilgalot left to Ender, in addition to the identity of the demon prince, the maid Murphy and the ruined castle, is this ring.
Of course, according to Murphy, there are countless treasures and many loyal servants in the Demon Realm of Gilgarrot, but that's all Ander can see at the moment. And from the very beginning, Ander had no hope for the treasures and servants of Gilgalot, who had been asleep for ten years, and those servants were estimated to have gone their separate ways, and the treasures and other treasures were probably divided up long ago, and there were only a few loyal people like Murphy.
It's a storage ring, and it's called "Crimson Eyes". However, unlike the average Mithril storage ring, the preciousness of this ring can even be described as "priceless", because the storage space of this storage ring is almost infinite, which means that Ander can even fit the entire Sunset Mountain Range into this ring if he wants to!
Just the "Red Flame Star" gem inlaid in the ring, if it is put on the market, it is not an exaggeration to say that it will set off a bloody storm in the entire Ottoman Empire, and countless strong people will fight to the death in order to fight for this small stone.
Although this red eye is already a priceless treasure, the most precious thing is not the ring, but the contents stored in the ring. Even now, every time Ender's consciousness enters the ring, he trembles with excitement. Because in this ring, there are 39,867 magic books, 55,43 martial arts books, and 108,721 magic scrolls. With this Crimson Eye, it's like carrying an entire library!
The magic and martial arts recorded in these magic books and martial arts books have everything from low-level to high-level, and there are even saint-level magic and saint-level martial arts above level ninety, and the most shocking thing for Ender is that he actually found a super-level magic in it!
The so-called super-level magic, which is the most powerful realm above the Holy Rank, is already infinitely close to the gods! It is rumored that a super-level magic can even easily destroy a country!
After finding this super-level magic, Ender once asked Murphy, and according to Murphy, she had never seen the Demon King use super-level magic, even during a duel with Jask. Ender estimates that this super-level magic Gilgarot should not have learned it either, and if he did, he would not have been defeated by Jask.
The contents of this ring, not counting those magic books and martial arts books, just this super-level magic, if this super-level magic is announced to the world, it may even cause the third world war! Super-level magic, but the terrifying existence that can change the world pattern, whether it is humans, elves, orcs, or demons, they will not allow the existence of this kind of anti-heaven magic, if they can't get it, then they must destroy it!
In addition to these magic books and martial arts books, there are some bits and pieces of other things in the ring, such as herbs, potions, magic props, and the like. However, it is a pity that most of these things are high-level, and with Ender's current level, they cannot be learned and used. However, there are also some magic items that have no level limit, such as the magic necklace that Ender is going to use now.
Ander looked at the red eye on his hand, and as soon as he flipped his palm, a necklace appeared in his palm. This is an unpretentious-looking necklace, silver, and dull, even if it is lost on the street, I am afraid that no one will pay attention to it. But Ander knew that if used well, this necklace could be of great use.
The name of this necklace is "The Pretender", and with it, Ender can disguise himself in whatever he wants to become. Ander had previously told Murphy that he was going to disguise himself as a human, and that was to use this necklace.
However, this necklace also has a drawback, it will suppress the user's level after disguise, and Ender is now a level 7 magician, and after bringing the impostor, his magic level will drop to level 5.
Although Ender has always stayed at home, he has also learned a little about the world situation from Murphy. Since the end of World War II, often referred to as the "Dark Ages", the elves have retreated to the Eternal Forest, the demons have returned to the Demon Realm, and humans have become the masters of the Continent of the Gods. Now, although the relationship between demons and humans is not hostile, it is definitely not friendly, and it must be inconvenient for a demon to suddenly appear in a human city, so Ender decided to disguise himself as a human.
Speaking of demons, humans, and elves, the appearance is actually similar, but the breath on the three races is completely different, in human terms, the body of the demon exudes the breath of darkness, and the body of the elf exudes the breath of life. As for the humans themselves, the elves consider humans to be dirty creatures, and the demons consider humans to be lowly creatures.
Wearing the pretender necklace, Ander's heart couldn't help but be a little funny, he was originally a human, and he didn't expect that one day he would have to disguise himself as his own race. After wearing the necklace, Ander only changed the aura of the demons on his body and the appearance of some demons, such as the red eyes, and the rest of the places like humans have not changed, and the appearance is still the same.
After changing his appearance, Ender continued on his way.
........................
Somewhere in the forest on the outskirts of the Sunset Mountains, a man and a woman are walking along a forest path. The man and the woman were not very old, they looked like they were in their early twenties, the man was tall and mighty, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a set of shiny silver armor, and carrying a huge two-handed sword on his back.
The woman was sweet and lovely, with long bright golden hair sprinkled on her shoulders like a waterfall, a white close-fitting leather armor on her upper body, a small blue battle skirt on her lower body, and a delicate short sword hanging from her waist.
This man and woman, the man's name is Mali, he is a well-known genius in Sunset City, the pride of the Warrior Guild, he is already a seventh-level warrior at the age of twenty-two, everyone says that the next president of the Sunset City Warrior Guild is estimated to be Mali. The woman's name is Ruili, twenty-one years old, she is also a member of the Warrior Guild, a fifth-level warrior.
Today, Mali took Ruili to the Sunset Forest to let Ruili take a look at the legendary "Sword in the Stone".
"Brother Mali, how long will it take to arrive?" Ruili followed Mali's side, her beautiful face with a frightened expression, as she spoke, staring vigilantly into the depths of the dense forest around her.
Mali was not afraid at all, took a big stride, and said with a smile: "Hehe, you begged me to take you to see the sword in the stone at the beginning, why are you scared now?"
"However, people didn't know that the Sunset Mountain Range was so terrifying, so they wouldn't have come if they had known. Ruili said remorsefully.
"Hehe, don't be afraid, this is just the periphery of the Sunset Mountain Range, and there are no high-level demonic beasts. Even if it did, I wouldn't let it hurt you a single hair. After Mali finished vows, the forest path in front of him suddenly opened up. Ma Ri Yi Xi said. "Here we are. ”
Ruili looked ahead, only to see a large clearing suddenly appear in the forest in front of her, in the middle of the clearing, there were six huge white pillars, and in the middle of these six pillars, there was a white stone platform, at this moment, a sharp sword was quietly inserted on the stone platform.
Finally saw the legendary Shizhong Sword, Ruili, who was still scared just now, immediately seemed to be a different person, she trotted over excitedly, came to the stone platform, two beautiful big eyes flashed with excitement, and looked the Shizhong Sword up and down.
Mari followed behind Ruili and also came to the stone platform, Ruili's excited appearance couldn't help but remind Mali of when he was a child, when he first saw Shizhong Sword, his expression was almost exactly the same as Ruili now. After all, it's a true legend.
Five hundred years ago, Florik, the founder of the Sunset City Warrior Guild, a ninety-ninth level saint-rank powerhouse, and a great sword hero, inserted this sword into this stone platform and left a prophecy: Whoever can pull out this sword will be the next Floric. Since then, countless geniuses have come here every year to become the next Floric, and yet, five hundred years later, the sword is still quietly stuck here, waiting for its owner.
After Ruili looked at it for a while, she was a little eager to try, and she also wanted to see if she could pull out this sword.
"Brother Mali, can I try it?" Ruili turned her head and looked at Mali expectantly.
"Of course, please. Mari smiled and made a "please" gesture.
"Then I'll be on, big brother Mali, give me strength!"
Ruili's expression became serious, her two beautiful big eyes widened, and a pair of small white hands firmly grasped the hilt of the sword in the stone. Then, I saw her open her small mouth and drink softly, and her whole body immediately erupted with a brilliant golden fighting energy!
Although Ruili had already used the full strength of a fifth-level warrior, the sword in the stone was still inserted into the stone platform unharmed, and she didn't even move.
Ruili pulled it for a long time, her little face was flushed, and finally, her physical strength was about to run out, so she had to let go of the hilt of the sword in the stone and give up.
"Ugh-" Ruili sighed in disappointment. "It seems that I am not a martial arts wizard. Brother Mali, won't you give it a try?"
"I? I've tried. Mari smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head. "I can't draw this sword. ”
"Hey, isn't it, can't even a martial arts genius like you, Big Brother Mali?!" Rayleigh was taken aback. "Why don't you try again, maybe you can now?"
Try again? Mari hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, since we're all here, let's try again!"
Standing in front of the stone platform, Mari raised his right hand, grasped the hilt of the sword in the stone tightly, and slowly closed his eyes. Then, Mali's body suddenly lit up with a faint layer of blue fighting energy, although the fighting energy was not as bright as Ruili's, but its powerful momentum was something that Ruili couldn't catch up with. The difference between level seven and level five is the chasm of the moat, and Ruili just stood by Mali's side, and felt that it became difficult to even breathe.
However, although Mali's strength was much stronger than Ruili's, the sword in the stone was still firmly inserted on the stone platform, and it did not move.
Mali didn't work in vain like Ruili, he knew that he couldn't pull it out, so he let go of his hand, put away his fighting spirit, and opened his eyes.
In fact, Mali knew that he couldn't pull out the sword in the stone, but he was never reconciled. Therefore, I just tried to pull it out again with a fluke mentality. Mali is a warrior who pursues glory, he has been hailed as a martial arts genius since he was a child, and has received countless applause and praise, once upon a time, Mali thought that he was the only one who could draw the sword in the stone, but as a result, the sword in the stone rejected him.
Although he knew the result, Mali was still very disappointed, he looked at the sword in the stone in a daze, the smooth sword body was like a mirror, reflecting Mali's disappointed face, as if mocking Mali's inadequacy.
Ruili is an empathetic and good girl, she can see that Mali is very devastated, so she gently took Mali's hand, showed a sweet smile, and said to Mali: "Brother Mali, Shi Zhongjian has also seen it, let's go back." ”
"Alright, let's go back. Mali was in no mood to stay in this sad place, so the two men turned around and walked back the way they came.
When the two men walked out of the clearing and re-entered the dense forest, Mali suddenly stopped. He turned, his gaze through the shade of the trees, and one last glance at the sword in the stone. Mali's eyes were filled with reluctance and reluctance, and he sighed regretfully, and took a step to continue. But at this moment, he suddenly saw a person suddenly emerge from the forest on the opposite side of the clearing!
