Chapter 021: A smile on his face, a ...... in his heart
Obvious confusion flashed in Eskar's eyes: "Rukma's breath? ”
"Looks like you don't understand what I mean. Lanloth shook his head, "I didn't want that legendary artifact, even if it was a fake. ”
"Fakes?"
"I think this outsider means the Eye of Rukma. "The Tibetan scrollers, in the Raven culture, are like scholars and advisors, and Ryshad quickly understood Lanlos's thoughts.
"Ho~ You want to get the power of Rukma?" Eskar's tone suddenly changed, "What do you want to do?"
The Eye of Rukma, that is, the culprit who gathered the power of the sun to launch a focused attack on Lanloth, can be said to be a fragment and a fake of Rukma's Breath, while it has a powerful attack ability, its most important function is to contain Rukma.
With the fall of Episis, the High Raven no longer had full control over Rukma, and because the latter was not as wise as before, in order to prevent being burned to ashes by their own gods, the High Raven created the Eye of Rukma based on the technology left behind by their ancestors.
Whenever Rukma approached, it would infuse it with the power of the Burning Sun, as this 'feeding' act would naturally not provoke Rukma to hostile thoughts. However, this is already the limit, and it is necessary to have complete control of Rukma unless the Episis civilization comes back from the dead.
For Lanloth, the biggest role of the Eye of Rukma is its ability to contain, like a rein, as long as the Eye of Rukma is in hand, he can easily bring the firebird to Viren.
"Most of the Raven exiles are believers who have been abandoned by Rukma, no matter what I want to do with Rukma, as long as I take her away from Tongtian Peak, wouldn't it be a good thing for you?"
Lanlos bit the word 'utilization' a little harder, conveying his meaning very subtly. No matter what he was going to do, Rukma would never have another chance to threaten the Raven exiles.
Indeed, if what this outsider says is true, it will be a great opportunity for Eska, for all the Raven exiles.
A chance to reclaim Tsutenho!
Exchanging a look with Reethad, Eskar let out another shrill laugh, "Haha, I appreciate your courage, outsider, but I don't know what to call you yet?"
Are leaders so reluctant to make decisions......
Although he was unhappy, Lan Luo was still smiling on his face: "Lan Luos." ”
"Very well, Lanros, while I'm very interested in your plan, Tyrok's summoning ritual is at a critical juncture, and if you don't mind, Reshad will continue to negotiate with you, sorry. ”
With that, Eskar nodded at the Tibetan scroll and then turned and walked to the altar.
This reaction was a bit unexpected, and Lan Luo Si wanted to say something, but was stopped by the crow man who was carrying a large number of files and books next to him: "The ceremony is indeed inseparable from Escar's supervision, if Lan Luo has any ideas, why don't we talk privately?"
Originally, he wanted to attack such a ridiculous situation, but Lanlos caught the glint in Reshad's eyes, and after a brief silence, he nodded silently.
Whether it is a high-level crow man or a crow exile, after all, they are born from the same root, and they also have great similarities in architectural style. Although unable to fly, the Raven Exile's buildings are still large hollow-outs, not so much houses as pavilions made of feathers and wood.
Even in private homes, it is difficult to feel safe because the windows on all sides are as large as large doors.
"I'm sorry, but Eskar and the Ravental Priest have been busy lately in order to summon the Talon King's entity. Bringing a cup of tea to Lanros, Resard's voice was a little more tired and vaguely worried than it had just been outside.
"Entities?"
Just politely took the cup, Lanlos did not drink the tea of unknown origin, and it was necessary to remember that he was alone and guarded against others. After all, people's hearts are separated from their bellies, and crow people are not as kind as they seem.
"Looks like you know a lot. Capturing the astonishment on the other party's face, Ryshad smiled bitterly.
As I said before, Tyrok is a legendary king in the history of the Raven Man, but heroes also have twilight moments. Under Tyrok's rule, Sketis gradually prospered, and even had the strength to rival the high-ranking Raven for a time. However, as the Talon King's body weakened year after year, the power of the curse eroded his will, and he began to hate the world, abandoning not only Sketis, but even sacrificing his own people in search of relief.
Eventually, the Ravental priests sealed Tyrok in the shadows, hoping to restore the vitality of the aging king under Ansu's arms.
"As you think, I'm worried, too. Ranros's silence caused Ryshad to sigh, "Eskar wants Tyrok to return in physical form and lead us back to the skies. Will the return of the King of the Claws save us, or will it lead us deeper into darkness?"
"I don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past. ”
"In you, I see courage and determination in the face of great power, such a valuable quality that may bring us new possibilities. ”
"What do you mean?" Although he realized something, Lanlos knew that at this time, he should play dumb.
Glancing up and around, after making sure no one was listening, Ryshard approached Lanroth and whispered, "I want to combine you with the spirit of Tyroke." ”
!!!
Needless to say, the shock on Lanloth's face almost turned into substance.
"Your presence is timely, and I have already spoken to several of the Ravental priests in charge of the ceremony, but the Raven Exiles are suspicious and suspicious, and this power cannot be convincing to any Raven Exile lodged on any of them. ”
"As for Eska, he doesn't want a part of the Talon King's spirit, he wants all of them. ”
"Anyway, it's too much to hand over this power to an outsider, right?" Ranros quickly eased his emotions and smiled flatteringly, trying to decline the other party's kindness.
"No, we all see your fight with Rukma in our eyes, and to put it bluntly, your reputation in the eyes of the Raven Exiles has reached a level not even inferior to mine. Ryshard smiled, and if you looked closely, there was an imperceptible flash of pleasure and frenzy in the depths of his eyes.
As Lanlos said before, almost the vast majority of the Raven exiles are believers who have been cursed and abandoned by Rukma, experiencing the despair and pain of losing their wings, and it is impossible to say that they do not hate Rukma.
And Lanloth's action of fighting against Rukma mercilessly trampled on the beliefs of the high-ranking crowmen, not only greatly boosting the morale of the crows' exiles, but also standing on the opposite side of the high-ranking crows without any possibility of reversal. At least when it comes to fighting against the high-ranking Ravens, the Raven Exiles can give Lanloth the greatest trust.
"But here's the thing. Although this can be figured out, Kranlos still can't simply accept the benefit, "If Eskar knew all this......"
"You can rest assured, when the raw rice is cooked and the rice is ripe, even he is helpless. ”
"On the contrary, attacking Tongtian Peak requires the power of Tairok, if it is mastered by you, wouldn't our cooperation be stronger?"
Hearing this, Lanlos was silent, and what was haunting his mind at the moment was more pathetic to the Raven Exile than his heart.
Most of these crow people who have lost their wings are composed of high-ranking crow people who used to be high in the past, and those who have just fallen from the peak of Babel may be the culprits who threw the old members off the mountain with their own hands.
The complex social composition has created social contradictions such as mutual suspicion and blame, forcing this ethnic group to never achieve 100% compatibility and unity. Eskar's single-mindedness and Reshad's forward-looking approach are the abbreviations of the big picture.
In contrast, under the cohesion of the unified faith of Rukma, the rule of the high-ranking Raven is unbreakable. With multiple repressions in class, military, and technology, it is no wonder that the Crow Exiles have only been on the run over the years.
However, none of this is the root cause of Lanlos's hesitation. Obviously, after seeing with his own eyes how Ranros 'hanged' Rukma, Ryshad was in a hurry, and he wanted to tie Ranros to the ship in the most convenient and fastest way.
Accepting Tyroc's spirit meant that he had to take full part in the battle against Babel Peak.
"In that case, I accepted it. Finally, the silence of the room was broken by the sound of Lanros's chuckle.
It is true that Ryshad was in a hurry, but what he didn't know was that someone was more anxious than him. As the first leader, Eskar does seem to be the best choice to cooperate, but because of his excessive trust in the power of Tyrok, his reaction just now is obviously not to take Lanloth too seriously.
Rather than spending energy and time trying to prove his worth, working with Reshad is clearly more efficient.
Isn't it just a war? It's a big deal, just kill a few more birdmen. Victory, you say, it doesn't matter to Lanloth, his goal is to take the power of Rukma and that's it.
