Sword of Daybreaker - Chapter 1501
In the courtyard of Cecil Palace, Betty and Enya are admiring the new ice sculpture in front of the fountain. The ice sculpture is so vivid that it seems to be Tyre herself. Most of them were accidentally frozen while sleeping next to the pool. It looks like an ice sculpture because the elemental creatures will turn into transparent ice crystals after being completely frozen.
The two young dragons who sneaked over from the Tarrond Embassy to play are now lying next to the ice sculpture in Tyre. Two excited little guys are practicing their indispensable talent skills as dragons, taking turns using the little dragons. Breath was grilling Tyr’s frozen porcelain tail, and Amber, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, was nearby to help. While commanding the two young dragons to adjust the firepower, they sprinkled salt, cumin and black pepper on Tyr’s tail. .
And not far from the side, Gawain was standing with Heidi, watching the warm scene next to the fountain (incorrectly), Heidi couldn’t help showing a helpless smile on her face: “Every winter, Tyre can always Do something unexpected…It’s the first time I know that the sea monster will really become ice-like transparent texture after being completely frozen?”
“It’s an elemental creature after all,” Gawain said with a smile, “and what does it mean that every winter, when does Tyre go through the seasons?”
“That’s true,” Heidi thought for a while, couldn’t help but smile, and then his eyes fell on Kohaku again. “She’s not really going to grill Tyre’s tail, right? Although Tyre might not be able to eat it. Mind, but this matter…”
“Don’t care, it’s weird. It’s good for her to be with these two little guys for a while,” Gawain said casually, and then the conversation turned around. “Let’s talk about this… Amorn mentioned it before. How is the investigation of the situation? Is there a follow-up?”
“You mean the plants of unknown origin that appeared at the border of the Shadow Garden?” Heidi immediately understood what Gawain was talking about, frowning slightly, “The Theocracy immediately sent someone to check after receiving the report. It is true that the “invasive plants” mentioned by Mr. Deer were found in the border zone, but the follow-up investigation has made no progress. The technical department has collected all the records of various monitoring equipment installed in the shadow courtyard in the past few months , But no abnormal data was found.”
Hearing Heidi’s report, Gawain frowned a little.
“Plants” of unknown origin appeared in the shadow courtyard. This is the “exception” that Amone suddenly reported not long ago. Several flowers and plants suddenly appeared on the edge of the huge garden. Of course, this is not a big deal if placed elsewhere, but That was the depths of the shadow world, a garden spawned by the power of the **** of nature in the past, and a few flowers and plants that were not in the plan became an incredible thing.
After receiving the report, the technical staff of the Theocracy had a cold sweat on the spot, followed by several consecutive days of investigation and spot monitoring, but just as Heidi reported…the investigation found nothing.
“Is there no trace left by the monitoring equipment… But Ammon’s judgment should not be wrong,” Gawain said in a low voice, “Although he is no longer a god, but his power and instinct are still there, he won’t remember. I don’t know the flowers and plants in my garden… Have you taken a sample and analyzed it?”
“Unable to sample successfully,” Heidi shook his head. “Those flowers and plants that appear abnormally on the border of the courtyard do not seem to be completely’real’. Any attempt to move or sample them will cause them to quickly decompose and disappear, let alone bring them to the present. The world, even in the shadow courtyard, will disappear within two minutes of the leaf samples taken.
“In view of this, the technical monks of the council can only conduct in situ research on those plants without destroying the plants, and the results are limited. Now they can only confirm that those plants do not belong to any species known in the world, and they have weak It’s magical reaction, there is no smell or taste, it can be touched and harmless, but too much touch will cause it to wither temporarily. This withering will gradually recover in the next few hours.”
“…This sounds like part of the characteristics of a ‘miracle’,” Gao Wen meditated, and then suddenly mentioned something that seemed irrelevant. “Are there any recent events in the churches of God that deserve attention?”
“No,” Heidi shook his head again. “Since the establishment of exchanges with alien civilizations, the Theocracy has raised the monitoring level of all churches to prevent changes in thoughts. The trial monks of the arbitration tribunal have been watching, but so far. An exception report came out.”
“There is no vision…” Gao Wen hugged his arms with a particularly serious tone, and suddenly said after a moment of indulgence, “Let the council continue to closely monitor the world’s major sects, especially the priests of the Three Gods of Prosperity.”
Heidi froze for a moment, and his eyes changed slightly: “The Three Gods of Abundance…You really suspect that the ‘invasive plants’ that appeared in the Shadow Garden are related to the three goddesses?”
“The monitoring device was not touched, either because the’intruder’ had a magical power that we didn’t know yet, which deceived the device’s divine detection function, or because the intruder tried to mix into the’whitelist’ of the rich three gods. The origin is closely related to the gods of nature. In the ancient times, the powers of the gods were mixed, and the fertility gods were even regarded as the’variants’ derived from the belief in the gods of nature from the elven society into the human society. This kind of’homology’ It will also be reflected in the power and authority of the corresponding gods.
“Our current technology is not enough to accurately distinguish and perceive the power of all the gods. If the three rich gods invade the shadow courtyard with a trace of power, then the monitoring equipment is likely to confuse this power with the power of Amor… …I think this is the most likely scenario.”
Heidi nodded earnestly and wrote down Gawain’s instructions, and then she hesitated for a few seconds, but still couldn’t hold back her words: “If the three goddesses of fertility are really in action… what do you think they want to do?”
“I don’t know, I don’t have the ability to predict the prophet,” Gao Wen shrugged, “but if you have to guess…I hope this is a good phenomenon.”
Heidi was a little curious: “Good phenomenon?”
“Do you remember what I said before?” Gao Wen glanced at her. “Before, Cecil took the lead in experimenting with church reforms, and there were coalition countries to promote the order of the gods’ powers throughout the continent. The work has achieved certain results all over the world. In theory, this change in the mortal world should have begun to affect the gods behind the various churches… Maybe there is still a long way to go before the real “unbinding”, but I have more ideas for those. As far as the gods are concerned, they may already be trying to move their hands and feet…”
“Move hands and feet…” Heidi thoughtfully, “So you think the traces that appear on the edge of the shadow courtyard are likely to be the signal of the Three Gods of Abundance…”
“The shackles between mortals and gods are as dangerous as thorns, so that even if the shackles are slightly relaxed, the two parties dare not act rashly,” Gao Wen said with a sigh, “the three gods of fertility may indeed be sending us a signal. , But this signal seems to be more difficult to understand than Carmel’s face and Nicholas’s eyes… But there is no way.
“Now we can only hope that this kind of’loosening’ will continue, so that more gods can take the initiative to try to connect with the world, and all we can do… is to get the council’s full attention and don’t miss the fight of the gods. Do your best to give us a wink.”
The picture in Hetty’s mind suddenly emerged…
…
At the same time, on the Violet Island off the northern coast of the Loren continent, covered by lush virgin jungles and barren wilderness, the exploratory team led by Modil and Maggie was walking through the depths of a dense forest.
A dense and abnormally dark environment is shrouded in dense forests. Even at noon, even in places where the sun is shining, the sky that should have been sunny shows a state of approaching dusk, and in the sun Where there is no direct access, there are shadows among the trees, as if disturbing shadows are permeated everywhere.
Even if the exploratory team turns on the lighting equipment they carry with them, even if Maggie and Modil summon magic light balls, these brilliance are barely maintained at a level that allows everyone to see the road clearly. Although it is not a problem to hurry, it is far away. It is not enough to dispel the surrounding shadows, which makes the entire exploration process seem more depressing.
“How should I put it… It is worthy of the power of Lady Ye to influence the place, the rich shadow environment here is really impressive.” The commonly used one-handed sword, while watching the movement in the surrounding woods, said casually to the dragonborn maid next to him, “It feels like a projection of the shadow world into the real world…”
“The only thing to be thankful for is that the dim environment itself is harmless. At least we didn’t encounter the monster that suddenly emerged from the shadow world, nor did we encounter the dense fog that would make people completely lost.”
Maggie whispered, holding a long sword in each hand, and constantly cleaning up the plants along the way, the maid skirt on her body didn’t seem to affect her agility in the slightest.
The wanton growth of vines and weird bushes are difficult obstacles for ordinary people to deal with, but it is not a problem for a maid with the power of a dragon. If she encounters really troublesome bushes, she will even just take a dragon. After leaving to burn it cleanly, this ensured the speed of the exploratory team and left enough eye-catching “marks” along the way to prevent the team from losing its way in this endless dense forest.
“Yes, at least the fog has cleared,” Modil looked up at the depths of the dense forest, and at the same time seriously felt the flow of magic in the surrounding environment, “Now we can explain why the cities in the former Violet Kingdom are isolated from each other, inland The area is blocked by the fog. Unauthorized strangers will be sent back to the exit by the fog after entering the forest…”
Maggie raised her eyebrows: “Oh?”
“Because dreams are discontinuous, and so are the dreams of gods. Where dreams are interrupted, nothingness is nothingness. You can’t walk from one dream to another through your legs… I think, at the beginning I am afraid that the details of these deep forests have not been outlined in Miss Ye’s dream at all, so they are always shrouded in fog. Only special existences like’messengers’ can open passages in the fog,” Modil didn’t worry. Speaking slowly, “Therefore, in the Violet Kingdom, it is not a’road’ at all to communicate with or without dependence between cities, but it is actually Ms. Ye’s brain…”
The old mage’s previous analysis was quite reasonable, but the final conclusion made Maggie almost choked to death by her own saliva. The young Miss Dragonborn coughed twice and looked at the adventurer with a strange expression: “Where did you learn from? To this word?”
“Oh, I found a few books on the Victorian bookshelf… These subtle words come from our great Gawain Cecil the Great,” Modier’s face was red, and it was obvious that he was very happy to talk about his idol. , But then he was a little puzzled, “But I don’t know why, but Victoria hid these books in the deepest part of the shelf. If it wasn’t for accidental discovery, I didn’t know that she had collected these good things…”
Maggie: “…”
“Do you know that Victoria has these books?” Modil didn’t notice the momentary embarrassment on Miss Longyi’s face, but asked casually.
Maggie was silent for two seconds: “…I know.”
“Oh? Do you know where she bought it from?” Modilton was overjoyed, “I can’t find channels everywhere…”
“Yes,” Maggie sighed in resignation, “I bought it for her.”
While saying this, she waved two long swords casually, cutting off the vines and weeds that were blocking the road, and then suddenly spit out a fiery flame to the front, burning a bush in the distance instantly. Under the control of, the dragon’s breath flame burned for a moment and then quickly extinguished, and the flames around the bushes did not spread out at all. Only a thick smoke entangled in the clearing and rose to the sky through the gap in the forest.
This thick smoke is a signal used to inform the left-behind troops in the rear camp and a dragoon reconnaissance plane hovering in the nearby sky of the approximate location of the exploratory team, Maggie will come here every once in a while.
To be honest, there is a humanoid dragon in the team that can breathe fire at any time, which is a bit exciting for the average explorer, but it is for the Cecil soldiers who have long been accustomed to playing with all kinds of weird “friends”. In terms of it is a common thing.
Following Modil and Maggie were a small group of heavily armed steel ranger soldiers. These elite soldiers who wore light-powered armor and were good at performing tasks in various special environments marched in silence, keeping their right Be wary of any wind and grass in the forest. Soon after Maggie’s breath burned out the bushes and caused heavy smoke, one of the Ranger soldiers received a communication from the rear. After quickly confirming the password and transmitting the message, this man The warrior walked quickly to Modil and Maggie: “There is news from aerial reconnaissance that there is a strangely shaped boulder about four kilometers in front of us, and it has a strong magical response.”
“Got it,” Maggie nodded, “Let’s take a closer look.”
After the soldiers stepped back, Maggie turned to look at the adventurous one aside: “The weird boulder…that should be the kind of ‘stone pile’ you had previously detected by the mage’s eye.”
“It should be, the position is correct,” Modil said. “When the Mage’s Eye was scouting, the unusually abrupt’stone piles’ in the forest were very interesting… No matter how you look at it, it looks like It is a man-made thing, but theoretically there should be no real man-made thing on Violet Island.”
Maggie nodded slightly: “I hope that thing can help us further understand the mysterious ‘old god’ of Ms. Ye, after all…who is there?!”
She seemed to have noticed something suddenly, and suddenly looked at the shadow of the forest not far away, her eyes suddenly turned into the vertical pupils unique to dragons, and the faint coercion spread out in all directions.
But there was nothing there, only shadows there.
