Chapter 201: Jade Pendant (1)
Rotten Country, Scotland, Balmoral Castle.
The old man who was dying took his son's hand and put a piece of jade pendant in his hand: "George, this is handed over to you, you must keep it." ”
The white jade pendant in his hand has a hollow moire, and it is about half the size of a palm with a red tassel.
"Mother, what is this?"
Looking at the style and pattern, this should be an oriental item, but why did my mother give it to herself so solemnly at this time?
"When I was nineteen years old, I had an accident, and a paranormal from the East rescued me and left me this thing."
"Accidents? I haven't heard from you. If I'm not mistaken, there was still a war at that time, right? Is it about war? ”
"That accident had nothing to do with the war, I gave a gag order afterwards, even you don't know. What I'm going to say next must be kept in mind. ”
"I will, Mother."
"If the owner of this jade pendant comes to the door in the future, he must not have any conflict with the other party, and he must bear it, even if he sacrifices some of the interests of the kingdom for this."
"The owner of the jade pendant? How is that possible? You were nineteen years old at the time, and now it's been more than seventy years since then, and that person can't come to us again even if he's still alive, right? ”
"I hope that's the case too, but the higher the level of the ability, the longer the lifespan, and a lot of things are hard to say."
"I made a note of it. But since the other party saved you, why are you still afraid that we will have a conflict with the other party? ”
"The goal of that Eastern Paranormal was to find a treasure, and it was just a coincidence. Then the other party asked me about this matter, which is why I knew the purpose. ”
"What kind of treasure is it? Did you find it in the end? ”
"I don't know what kind of treasure it was, but in the end, I found it and took it away."
"After the other party inquired about the news, he handed me this jade pendant and said: In your lifetime, the rotten country is still the Great Infant Empire, and if this jade is still a knight, it will still be a knight of the round table."
"The other party knows who you are from the beginning?"
"Yes, even the words about coming to find treasures must have been deliberately said to me."
"This... It's also unbelievable. ”
"This Mighty One from the East is a favor to me personally, but a hateful to our kingdom. For the sake of the kingdom, I can only take revenge, this matter is simply torture for me, I once wanted to die a hundred times but was stopped by the other party. ”
"Did the Knights of the Round Table all make a move?"
"The seven Knights of the Round Table teamed up and still lost."
"How is this possible? At least the sixth order can serve as a knight of the round table, and there are still people who are seventh order, and seven people can't beat it together? Could it be that the other party is an eighth-order? What type of Adept is it? ”
"The other party has used telekinesis and lightning, but I can't be sure because there has never been an accurate record of the eighth order."
"Mother, what about the army?"
"It's useless, small troops can't beat it, and large troops can't catch up."
"But now it's different, modern weapons are a hundred times stronger than then, and the combat effectiveness of the army is not the same. At that time, it is impossible for a powerful supernatural to resist the army even now. ”
"What you say makes sense, the combat effectiveness of the army is not what it used to be. But with that kind of destructive power, if the fighting were to take place in the city, the civilian casualties would be very high. ”
"If the other party comes to the door, as long as it is not too much, I will agree. But please understand that I will not humiliate the Kingdom out of fear. ”
"It won't be long before you're the king of this country, and you're naturally going to have to do what you want."
"Thank you for your understanding."
George could understand the first half of what the Stranger from the East said, but he didn't. But he also knew that his mother had pondered this sentence for decades, and if she figured it out, she would naturally tell herself. Since I didn't say it, I don't have to bother thinking about it, it's fruitless.
"The world of the Anobes is full of all sorts of strange things, many of which still can't be explained."
"I see, Mother."
"Bedwell."
"I'm here."
"Please continue to protect the royal family and the kingdom."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the Knights of the Round Table will always protect the royal family and the kingdom."
。
On the X/X day of the XXXX year, the longest-reigning monarch of the kingdom left her beloved country forever.
On that day, George succeeded to the throne, and he was also the oldest monarch in the history of the kingdom when he ascended the throne.
Bedwell led seven Knights of the Round Table to take the oath to the King. Because you can only serve as a Knight of the Round Table when you reach the sixth order, and it is impossible for all the sixth-order abilities in the whole country to join the Knights, it is difficult to gather the quota of twelve people except for the first generation.
When everything was stable, King George called Bedwell and asked him if he could take the jade pendant for a test.
"Your Majesty, this jade pendant has been fully tested when the first king is here. In terms of material, there is no problem with jade, at most the color is the best, if you take it out and sell it, you can sell it for a lot of money. In addition, we find an energy on it that is currently unexplained. Bedwell said.
"Unexplained energy? Can you elaborate on that? ”
"For example, electrical energy is a kind of energy, and the most commonly used form of electricity storage is batteries. There is an energy reaction on this jade pendant, but this thing is pure jade, and it is theoretically impossible to store energy. ”
"Can you activate the energy above?"
"I haven't found a way to do it yet."
"What does the Royal Academy of Sciences say?"
"They can't explain it."
"I see."
As a member of the royal family, George knows too many secrets, many of which cannot be explained by science.
And how strong the combat power of the sixth-order ability is, he has a deep body.
For example, one of the Knights of the Round Table, a sixth-order flame system, has mastered the explosion of the flame advancement, and the fireball fired is no larger than a fist, but the power is almost the same as that of a 105 mm cannonball. Of course, the range is not more than a kilometer.
He can fire more than 50 rounds of such a fireball, imagine that in urban warfare, you take out a bazooka and think you have won, but you don't expect that the other party is the firepower density of a howitzer company, how can this be fought?
Another Knight of the Round Table with a seventh-order enhancement system can form an invisible armor outside his body, which can perfectly disarm the impact while resisting attacks. Although the attack power can only rely on fists to smash or use modern weapons, it can defend against the main gun attack of the active Challenger tank at a distance of 500 meters, or directly resist the continuous bombardment of 155 mm howitzers.
The Knights of the Round Table abilities from more than seventy years ago weren't the same as the current ones, but they weren't as powerful. And the seven such powerful sixth-order and seventh-order combinations were still inferior to the one from the east, and the strength of the other party at that time could really be called sweeping thousands of armies.
This is also the reason why the first king was worried, if the capital was attacked by the same power equivalent to dozens or even hundreds of large-caliber howitzers, no country could stand it.
