Chapter 1619: The Sorrow of the Pleasant Frost Why don't you change your name to the Joy of Fire?
As we all know, divine soldiers have spirits, and magic swords like Frost Sorrow are no exception.
These so-called artifacts have spirits, not the very mysterious artifacts mentioned in the barrage, and they can also turn into human forms to help their masters fight or something.
Weapons that have reached the level of an artifact will inevitably give birth to the most basic self-awareness.
Salian had studied the spirit of artifacts and came to the conclusion that it was ...... These artifact spirits are not true souls, but more akin to artificial intelligence created by humans.
Yes, the Spirit of the Gods is essentially the same as the AI Arbiter, and they can respond accordingly depending on the situation they encounter.
But these responses are not because they have advanced intelligence, but simply follow the logic of answering questions.
In the words of the barrage, this is like a set of intelligent response programs written by programmers typing code.
FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU ASK WHAT 1+1 IS IN A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE SUCH AS C OR JAVA, THE PROGRAM WILL AUTOMATICALLY RESPOND WITH 2.
The program doesn't have the twists and turns of ideas like intelligent beings, and it will make sophistries like 1 father + 1 mother is greater than or equal to 3 people.
Artifact spirits can only respond to the wielder by following a pre-arranged "persona", but depending on the settings given by the maker, different artifacts will naturally have a variety of "personalities".
For example, Sarjan's most commonly used Valagar sword, this pair of twin swords is worthy of being from Odin's hand, and its favorite owner is the early Sarjan who is reckless and reckless.
Out of Egwene's bad taste, the Staff of Balance, which she crafted, has two distinct virtual personalities, representing life and death.
When split into a bracelet, the two artifact spirits will always repel each other.
Luckily they couldn't speak, otherwise Saléan would have had a nervous breakdown from the pair of magical spirits.
However, when combined into a staff form, the spirit of the artifact fused together can work together, often exerting the power of 1+1 greater than 2.
Sarren couldn't determine the state of mind of the Warlord when he forged Frostmourn, and after a period of grinding, he had figured out what kind of character the magic sword's spirit was set into.
In most cases, Frost's Grief will be very cold, and very indifferent to the owner's active communication.
But that's just a façade of its true character.
Once it has absorbed enough souls to strengthen itself, Frostmourn will change its usual cold attitude and become very fanatical, fanatical in wanting to continue to absorb more and more powerful souls.
At this time, the sorrow of Frost, which was held in Sarren's hand, trembled slightly on its own.
Most of the souls that can be thrown into the abyss are heinous people who have plagued the universe, and those who can be evil to this extent, their strength will definitely not be too bad, and the strength of their souls can be imagined.
The quality of the soul that has the ability to preserve the remnant soul to this day under the destruction of the sinner's forge is even more top-notch, and sucking one at random can make the sorrow of frost, who is always pretending to be cold, cheer.
This is only the remnant soul that has lost a lot of soul power, and Sarjan finally knows how Zoval, who was drained of his mental energy before being thrown into the abyss, can quickly recover his state.
It is important to emphasize here that there is more than one Sword of Sorrow, and that Frost Sorrow is only the original prototype sword, which was secretly brought to the material world by the Dreadlord for the sake of testing its practicality.
Of course, considering that forging the Sword of Sorrow requires a lot of precious materials, this thing is not something that can be mass-produced in batches casually.
According to the information provided by the barrage, in addition to Frost Sorrow, there is only one Sword of Sorrow that has appeared in the plot, that is, the one in the hand of Anduin Urien, the then king of the Stormwind Kingdom.
It was with this specially adjusted sword of sorrow that Anduin, who was forcibly promoted to the demigod realm by Zoval's temporary infused power, was able to injure the unsuspecting eldest daughter Gristia.
It can be seen that the Sword of Sorrow does have a powerful special attack ability against the soul body, and even a true god-level boss will be injured by them.
It was for this reason that Sarren did not return the repaired Frostmourn to the Lich King, but kept it for his own use.
If he really had to fight the warden, Frostmourn, who had absorbed a large number of high-quality souls and greatly strengthened his power, would definitely give Zoval a big surprise.
[By the way, the No. 2 Sorrow Sword in Anduin's hand shouldn't be called Frost's Sorrow, right?] 】
[That's for sure, but its name isn't specifically mentioned in the plot.] 】
[Frost's sad sister sword, not as good as ...... Let's call it the joy of fire. 】
【??? 】
[God TM fire is happy, where does this have anything to do with the word "sorrow"? 】
Even in the abyss of external isolation, netizens from another world are still as active as ever.
Looking at the barrage of sand sculptures brushed in front of him, Salian could at least ensure that his mood would not be too depressed by the environment of the Abyss.
That's right, environmental impact.
Ever since entering the Abyss, Saray has been vaguely aware that the environment here will magnify the dark side of the soul's heart that enters it, making them become negative and anxious unconsciously.
Especially an unaccompanied lone ranger like Sarean is more likely to lose himself in solitude.
The companionship of the barrage diluted the little loneliness that had just risen in Saray's peace of mind, allowing him to stabilize his mind and continue to move forward in the turbulent sinner forge.
For the poor creature who only entered the abyss with his soul, once he was caught in the forges of sinners, he never thought of leaving.
With a physical body as a stabilizer, Sarjan was able to pardon the soul turbulence to a large extent, and pushed forward step by step against the dark blue wind.
In the process, Saljan sucks every remnant soul he encounters into Frost Sorrow.
The magic sword Frostmourn has a special ability to absorb souls to enhance its own power, and the more souls it absorbs, the higher the quality, the stronger the blessings that Frostmourn can return to its owner.
But it is important to note here that souls that have not yet been fully "digested" cannot be helped.
It is true that Frostmourn can forcibly suck the soul of the person it cuts into the sword in defiance of resistance, but if the opponent's will is strong enough, Frostmourn cannot digest the soul of the Lord in a short period of time.
The original history of Terenus and Uther is a prime example, and Arthas, the great son of Lordaeron, was unable to digest their souls after inhaling them into the Frost Sorrow.
It wasn't until Frostmourn was cleaved by Tirio Fordin with the Ash Messenger during the decisive battle of Icecrown that the souls of Terenus and Uther were freed, causing a terrible backlash against Arthas.
After a large number of resentful souls escaped from the shackles of the magic sword, they turned their heads mercilessly and frantically bit Arthas, which gave birth to the classic last words.
"There was only darkness before my eyes."
In the timeline where Sarren is, Arthas should have been frantically torn to pieces by the souls who died unjustly at his hands when the magic sword was cut off.
But someone secretly saved Arthas's soul and brought him to the Shadow Realm without knowing it.
Salian did not know what the current situation was in Alsace.
If he still has value for Zovar and Denasius, he may be able to get away with maintaining a full sense of self.
If not...... Maybe one of the remnants of the sinner's forge is him.
Sarjan, who held the Frost Sorrow in his hand, could clearly feel the feedback of the artifact spirit, and the Frost Sorrow at this moment was more excited than ever.
While working under Arthas, Frostmourn did absorb a lot of souls, but most of them were ordinary souls of low quality.
As mentioned before, a small number of high-quality souls never gave up their resistance, resulting in Frost Sorrow being eaten but unable to digest it, and could only be watched with greed.
During the ten minutes that Saljan struggled forward in the sinner's forge, the total strength of the soul power that Frost Sorrow had eaten far exceeded the sum of the previous gains.
Because they are in a state of remnant souls, these ownerless souls will not resist, and they are very obediently refined by the frost sorrow.
It was only at this time that Sarjan suddenly discovered a problem.
When Azadas reforged Frostmourn, he somehow removed the ice attribute that was enchanted into it.
In other words, today's "Frost Sorrow" is not actually a frost attribute, and the name is not worthy of the name.
"Hmm......" Sarian thoughtfully glanced at the sad sword in his hand without ice blue aura, "Do you want to change your name?" Look at how happy you are now...... How do you think of the joy of fire? ”
In the next second, "Frost Sorrow" trembled wildly in Sarren's hands with extreme resistance.
