Chapter 1228: Unknown soldier's hill
The trek in the wilderness is a difficult journey, but fortunately this journey has not lasted for a long time. The human body quality of the Kolo world far exceeds that of the Earth, and the combat professionals among them are more near Superman, the Knights. They walked lightly and walked on foot, all the way to the army, with only a small amount of rest in the middle. A few days later, Hao Ren learned from Veronica that the border of the plain is not far away.
In fact, everyone, including Hao Ren, still can't see the shadow of the shadow jungle, but the traveler's charm in Veronica's hands has begun to emit a constant light, which is close to the magic beacon on the edge of the shadow jungle. If all goes well, For up to half a day, you can see the iconic landmark landscape between the two regions: the Unknown Soldier's Hill.
The trek of this road can be regarded as no danger, although the oppressive atmosphere in the chaotic field brings great psychological pressure, but Hao Ren lends the "religious object" to the Knights to bring a strong protection to the team. Veronica has never seen anything that can bring such a lasting and effective order to shelter. The light of the light white plate is not weakened in the most chaotic place. In a few days, it has been The light of order that is released is almost constant, does not require recharge, and does not require circulation purification. That thing is like the incarnation of divine power, which continues to shelter everyone in chaos and does not see any signs of exhaustion.
This made the Princess of the Princess could not help but think that if there were several such sacred objects in the army of the kingdom, how many brave soldiers could save the lives of the brave soldiers? The Chaos Expeditionary Force of the Kingdom will become extremely safe outside the border of the order, and if there are more such sacred objects and a line of defense on the border of the kingdom, then the chaotic forces will never be able to threaten the safety of the people.
But these thoughts are just a turn in my heart. After all, I didn’t say anything. She knows that every sacred object from the ancient times is precious, only in the holy places like the Kasuan Temple. The pieces remain, and the number of sacred objects in Hao Ren’s “Ancient Guardian” is certainly limited, and the person can’t be too greedy.
In the past few days, Hao Ren has followed the Knights as a "guard" all the way. The rest of the time is basically to understand the world view of the world. On the one hand, it is to talk with Veronica or Morian. On the other hand, I studied the various strange phenomena found on the road.
Compared with dealing with the old knight, he prefers to say a few more words to Princess Veronica, who is more straightforward. This is not because the princess is pleasing to the eye, but because the old knight is rigorous and has the suspicion of the veteran. Even in the face of Hao Ren, the "ancient guardian", the attitude expressed by the father is not so blindly trusted. Morian often doubts or asks questions about some common-sense questions raised by Hao Ren, compared with the princess. His Royal Highness is much more intimate. Although Veronica did not doubt the lack of common sense in Hao Ren, even if she suspected that she did not say anything, on the contrary, for curiosity or other reasons, the Princess of the Princess even took the initiative to talk with Hao Ren. Issues.
Now they are discussing things about ancient myths, which are quite helpful for the journey.
"...The ancient book says that the ancient times of Kolo was actually a complete land, called the 'Gukolo continent'. Now all the kingdoms are connected in the same year, and a lot of water forms the ocean and the river. There is a constant flow between the kingdoms," Veronica vividly told her the knowledge she heard from her scholarly tutor. "But there is an evil giant being held in the deepest part of Colo. This giant is called 'Rock. Marton's, he was a prisoner of the goddess of creation, so he was blocked in the depths of the earth forever to suppress. As the years passed, Lockhamton's chain lost its utility because of the reversal of the universe, and the evil giant escaped. He hit the earth in anger, and the Guccolo continent was torn apart. The biggest pieces were five, which are today's Ansu mainland, the glow continent, the country of the winter, the secret of the Kanaan, and the country where the group is located. The Sanctuary, in addition to the secret of the Kanaan, the other four continents are ruled by the order of the country."
Hao Ren listened to Veronica's telling of these ancient legends, silently linking "Rockyton" to "eldest son" in his heart, but at the same time he had doubts: the eldest son is a giant tentacles growing inside the planet. Their image and human form are very different. Why do humans in this world call it "the evil giant" in mythology?
He thought about it and did not go deep into this issue: there are many missing and distorted ancient myths, and such a flaw is normal.
He casually picked up Veronica's words: "The way we know is similar to you... Well, the world is torn apart, and then floats in the sea of Carnos (nothing), right?"
"Yes, the mainland is floating in nothingness. Countless large and small floating islands float between the continents. The suspended rivers and the magical waves are constantly flowing between the cracks after the world is broken...but said To be honest, I have never seen a suspended river. I heard that they are very spectacular, but they are not visible in the territory of the Talos. There are only two suspended rivers in the entire Ansu continent, one above the country of the bonfire. In the void outside the northern border of Ansu, only the most daring wizards built the mage tower near the suspended river."
The somewhat embarrassed princess said, while waving his hand: "In fact, I really want to see it. Unfortunately, the chaos war has broken out. Now there is no chance to swim in the mountains."
Hao Ren responded with a sigh of relief, and at this moment, a small hill appeared in his vision.
"That is the hill of the unknown soldier?" he asked, pointing to the distance.
Veronica immediately looked at Hao Ren's finger. Of course, she didn't see anything. Even if she blinked hard, she couldn't see the flesh. In the chaotic fog, she couldn't see too far.
But after moving on for a while, the hill of the unknown soldier appeared in the eyes of everyone.
This well-known local landscape is presented in front of Hao Ren. Compared to its fame, this hillock itself is not eye-catching. It is just a small mound that bulges in the wilderness, surrounded by some messy Stones, but just above this inconspicuous little mound, there is a stone statue quietly standing:
It was a sculpture of a warrior, carved with dense black and black rock. The face of the warrior has been blurred, but it can still be seen that he is wearing a heavy armor, and he is awkward with his hands, and he looks at the ridiculous head with his hands. In the depths of the wilderness, it seems as if the general is looking at the battlefield.
This is the famous "Unknown Soldier's Hill" in the wilderness, or the "Unknown Knight's Hill" in the ancient Dhabi language.
"There is such a sculpture here..." Hao Ren couldn't help but mutter when he saw the sculpture standing alone in the wilderness. There is no shop in front of the village. Xiaoqiu itself does not look like a historical relic. There is a sculpture that is so lifelike and standing here. Of course, people can’t help but be curious.
However, Veronica looked at him with a strange look, and whispered, "Don't you know? The last generation did not hear the story of the 'last elf empire'?"
When Hao Ren stayed, he immediately knew that he was showing up again. But when he made an excuse, he seemed to want to cover it. So he nodded and admitted: "I really don't know, or even if I know that I can't be ten years old. Many things have changed their appearances. Even many of our vocabulary are different from what you mean now. What you said is the "last elf empire", which may be called in our time."
This reason is well-founded. Veronica reduced the doubts in her mind a little, but explained: "It is an ancient legend. It is said that six thousand years ago, there was a very powerful elf empire on the wilderness. 'Sukhoma', this empire has a great and ambitious emperor who unified all the kingdoms on the plains and almost ruled the entire Ansu continent, he wants to build a land on the greatest kingdom, and almost Success, but when he was to swear to become the king of the king of Ansu, the tide of chaos broke out.
"It is said that it was the strongest chaotic tide in the whole millennium. The darkness erupted from the hinterland of the elf empire and spread rapidly across the continent along the magical path of the wilderness. The empire experienced thirty days and nights of hell. It’s hot and roast, and it’s welcoming the end of the 30 days and nights that can make steel into powder, followed by plagues, floods, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Finally, 80% of the order on the continent of Ansu The land began to be ridiculous, almost in the blink of an eye, chaotic forces broke all the lines of defense...
"The prince's ambition was quickly shattered, but he still resisted with his only remaining soldiers. The last rebel army fought and retreated. Their last battlefield was in front of the Emperor's seat in the Elven King City. Right here, here is the capital of the brilliant empire that year."
Hao Ren looked around and saw only the wilderness.
"So this is the Elf King?" he asked, pointing to the "sculpture" on the hillock.
"A lot of people think so. The Elf King stood in front of his throne. When all his guards fell, he supported the body with a sword and looked at the burning capital, saying: I want to stand Here, watching my kingdom sink into the darkness, it will rise one day, and then I will fall. Then the vow of the Elf King is realized: he is standing in this place forever, a whole six The storms of the millennium have not destroyed this stone statue. It is said that he will stand here forever until the elves become the master of this continent, or the world of Kolo will come to an end."
After listening to this story, Hao Ren did not speak for a long time, and finally he broke the silence: "Then should be called the hill of the unknown king."
Veronica shook his head: "The Elf King is holding a sword and standing dead. He left the world in the image of a warrior, so it is called the hill of the unknown soldier." (^)
