Chapter 10: The Sword of Judgment (Part II)
"Father knows that you have a lot of questions and unwillingness in your heart, and you are as smart as you, if your father doesn't give you an answer today, I'm afraid you will hate me for the rest of your life. Father sees you in this face today, and is ready to answer for you, and there are some things that should be known to you. There was a pause. Then he spoke to himself, and his voice was a little ethereal.
"The Imperial Family has left a prophecy that the Sword of Judgment will shine in the hands of the Empire's only royal bloodline, and he will lead the kingdom to glory. ”
"Sword of Judgment!" Lindy exclaimed in surprise when he heard this, and his eyes flashed, the Sword of Judgment was one of the six holy weapons of creation.
It is rumored that one of them can make a helpless chicken have the power of a sword god. If you can collect all the other five holy weapons, you can open the door of the divine realm, enter the divine realm, and have an immortal body.
At this time, hearing such news was too shocking for Lindy, listening to the tone of his cheap father, this sword of judgment was very likely to be in his hand. So what does he mean by saying it now?
Lin Di is confident that with his powerful skills and exquisite martial arts moves in his previous life, although this body is now a waste material, he is also confident that he can protect himself.
But after all, that is only the advantage of the moves, and his strong combat experience, if it is really more powerful, he has no advantage at all in this other world.
The other world in memory, the real strong, can not be won by moves, powerful warriors have a talisman fighting spirit, magicians have a talisman magic shield, this is not something that can be broken with just moves.
No matter how subtle the move is, without the support of a strong force, it will not be able to form a threat to the truly strong at all.
So, Lindy is very hungry for power right now. No matter how wonderful the moves are, they are not worth mentioning in the face of absolute power.
In her current form, Lindy must be strong, not only to protect herself, but also to ensure that the people she cares about are not harmed.
The legend of the Sword of Judgment is almost a dream for him now. So when he heard this shocking news, he was a little out of shape.
If you can get this sword, it won't be a dream to become stronger, and will you still care about Di Changlong's assassination at that time?
Lindy looked at the old man expectantly as she thought to herself. I want to hear him continue, since the old man brought up this matter, there is always his purpose.
He really wanted this cheap dad to hand him the sword, but it seemed that this possibility was not very likely.
But no matter what, Lindy's current mind has been attracted by this sword, even if the old man doesn't give it, Lindy will find a way to get it.
In order to have enough ability to protect his mother, it doesn't matter if he is a thief, and the old man shouldn't blame him.
No matter how much he says that he is now his son, his things are not his own. Lindy thought a little shamelessly.
Dick didn't care about Lindy's exclamation, and no one could hold their breath when such heavy news came out. The legend and mystery of this sword are known to almost everyone on this continent.
"The Sword of Judgment is the treasure of the Empire, and this sword has always been in the hands of kings, and only the king knows this secret, but this sword has not shown its legend in the hands of successive kings......"
After speaking, he looked at Lindy deeply, and then said with a hint of unwillingness and guilt in his voice:
"Even in my hands, it has harmed my brother because of it. When Lindy heard this, her heart suddenly burst and she was happy at the same time.
The legend of the Sword of Judgment as a holy weapon is certainly not groundless, since the sword has not shown its legendary power in the hands of successive kings, it means that the secret has not been solved.
Just now, he was still thinking that this sword has gone through so many generations, even if there is a secret, it should be discovered, and the power that makes people stronger in it will disappear with it, and there is no hope for him to become stronger. It seems that his fears turned out to be unfounded.
Suddenly, the old man said that the sword only shines in the hands of the only bloodline of the empire, and the sentence that harms the king's brother and brothers kill each other! The word suddenly burst out of Lindy's mind.
As a modern person, it is too common for this kind of thing to happen for the sake of power and profit, especially in the court, just like Di Changlong does to himself now.
Wait! Di Changlong killed himself, and with his qualifications, he was afraid that he would not be able to get on the throne, so if he wanted to kill himself, the biggest possibility was this sword.
Looking at Lindy with a complicated expression, a bitter look flashed on Dick's face, and then a smile of relief, he knew that his son was not stupid, and he had already figured out a lot of things. But even if he wanted to, he would have to explain it to him.
"Son, you're right, your uncle died at the hands of his father. ”
Although, Lindy had already guessed the result, but when Dick said it himself, it still gave him a little shock, but he didn't expect that his kind father also had a ruthless side, which may be the answer to the most ruthless emperor's family.
"There is only one heir to the throne in each generation of the empire, no matter how many brothers and sisters you have in your generation, there is only one throne and only one sword. The final outcome is the survival of the fittest, the winner is king, and the loser dies. This is true of all thirty-three generations of the Empire. This is a tradition left by our ancestors, and a curse left by the Sword of Judgment. ”
Curse? Lin Di was shocked when he heard this, what does this sentence mean, isn't this sword left by the ancestor? How can there be a curse. Moreover, this curse actually came from a holy weapon.
Dicko did not answer Lindy's surprise directly, but continued:
"The Sword of Judgment was passed down from the first king of the Brady Empire, Di Qingyu. However, this sword was snatched by him, and the owner of the sword, at the cost of his life, cursed the ancestor and his descendants that whoever gets this sword must kill all his brothers and sisters, otherwise the Brady Empire will be destroyed......"
After saying this, a trace of pain flashed in Dico's eyes, there was guilt and remorse in his heart, it was complicated and difficult to understand, his fists were clenched, and his whole body trembled a little. There is some emotional instability.
The emotion in Dicko's deep words made Lindy empathize, and he could deeply feel the helplessness and remorse in his heart.
Lindy chose to remain silent and did not ask out loud. This may be the eternal pain in the old man's heart, and now he is afraid that the mental torture he has to endure is not light.
Silence and listening are the best ways to understand and support. Besides, he wanted to know more about such secrets, and since he wanted to get his hands on this sword, he had to know everything about it.
Glancing at the silent Lindy, Dico's mood calmed down a little, nodded slightly, and continued:
"The original owner of the sword also prophesied that the Sword of Judgment would shine in the hands of the Empire's only bloodline, bringing the Empire to glory. The curse of this sword will also end in the hands of bloodlines who are not of the bloodline of the Brady Empire. ”
Hearing this, Lin Di was stunned, what is the bloodline that is not bloodline, why does this sound so wrong. The only bloodline in the latter sentence is easy to explain, but this sentence is a little awkward no matter how you listen to it.
Lindy's puzzled look didn't escape Dicko's eyes.
"These are the exact words of the prophecy, and the ancestors and my generation have never understood the meaning of this sentence, and the ancestors have tried to ignore the curse, but several times the Brady Empire has almost perished because of it. Therefore, even if the ancestors of each generation are unwilling, they will fall into helpless fratricide, and the empire cannot be destroyed, which is the inheritance passed down from the ancestors. As a result, over time, the ancestors have accepted their fate. ”
Perhaps it was just a little emotional venting, but Dicko's voice calmed down a lot as he said these words.
But the helplessness, pain and guilt in his eyes did not decrease, and the red eyes shot out of strong feelings. Like remembrance!
