Soul of Burning Steel

The star pendant is 835 years, November 7th.

Half a year passed in a flash.

Six months, one hundred and eighty days, although it sounds like a long time, but for the ordinary people and the extraordinary who are living more and more comfortable in the era of the Great Demon Tide, this peace without any wars for half a year is precious in their lives. It was a warm moment, but in this short moment, many things worth remembering happened.

First of all, at the end of May, Alva Diamond, the seventh prince of the empire, was accepted as a named disciple by the new legend of the empire, and the Lord of the North, Joshua Van Radcliffe. For the common people, this is just a talk after dinner, but for many nobles and the noble ladies in the Morlai Palace, it is a great news. This news means that the identity value of the Seven Princes has been greatly improved, and there is With the guarantee of stability, even if Alva cannot become the future emperor, his identity as a disciple of a legendary strong man is worth their investment.

In addition, the seemingly defeated competitor, Di Moore, was not underestimated, because the Northland Earl mentioned in a private meeting with the Kaoss that the second prince of the Empire himself The potential is full, but it was not accepted only because of inconsistent ideas. Being able to get such a formal compliment from a legendary powerhouse, coupled with his previous performance in the army, undoubtedly proved the possibility of Di Moore.

Secondly, in mid-June of the same year, the Far Southern Kingdom recovered the city of Ruhr.

Two years ago, on March 12th, 833, the Luer Harbor, the last coastal city of the Far Southern Kingdom, fell due to the siege of more than one hundred thousand mad dragons. It was covered with acid and flame within a thousand miles. It's all ashes and white ground, it can be said that there is no grass. Now, more than two years later, the troops of the Far South Kingdom that finally came out of the wounds caused by the dragon disaster have completely wiped out the remaining sea beasts and flying dragons in the ruins of many coastal ports, and recovered the ruins of these cities.

Although these cities have been completely destroyed and the remaining ruins are uninhabitable at all, they are, in the final analysis, the hometowns of many refugees from the Far South. The good news of the restoration of the entire territory has also greatly helped the desperate family of the Far South to calm the increasingly turbulent domestic situation. ——The prestige is greatly reduced, and it is almost impossible to order the royal family of each fortress army to take advantage of this good news and issue their largest and should be the final decree in the past two years: the frontier autonomy order.

This decree is full of nonsense and complicated etiquette and honorifics. To put it in the simplest and most common language, it is ‘let go’. The Far South royal family has been unable to rule the southern and coastal borders ravaged by wild dragons, so anyone who has the ability to rebuild cities and villages there and gather more than 500 people to maintain order, whether he is an adventurer, mercenary, or freedom People, former nobles, criminals or foreigners will automatically become nobles of the Far South Kingdom. This decree has been recognized by the gods, and the Church of the Seven Gods and the royal family recognize its sacredness.

When the Border Autonomy Order came out, almost all people in the world with certain ambitions and abilities were like sharks that smelled blood. They were cruising in excitement from all over the world, and everyone smelled the weak breath of the Far Southern Kingdom. , There is still the possibility of realizing one's ambitions. I have to say that this decree is really a genius idea from a certain angle. Just the third month after it was issued, it was originally dilapidated, but there was nothing except the ruins of the Far South It has been initially restored to some vitality due to the large number of foreign populations. According to the estimation of the group of professional masters in the Eastern Plains, the southern border will be restored to a certain degree of vitality and return to the world of order, but the opposite is true. , The Far South royal family can no longer control these areas.

In July, compared to their human neighbors in the plains, the elves rooted in the southern mountains-swamps in the southwest seemed much quieter. Although the mad dragon two years ago caused damage to the elven cities and villages around the Silent Forest. Great damage, but the originally scattered elves did not suffer too much loss because of this. In addition, the inland dense forest area was not originally a superior area of ​​high mountain and hilly creatures such as flying dragons, so they did not suffer much loss after the war. They quickly restored order.

However, even the elves, who have always seemed to have no sense of existence, issued a small news at this time: after a grand and mysterious ceremony, the elven king's court announced in the center of the Eternal Lake that they Regained the blessing of the ancient gods, the creator of the elves, and the [Father of Nature], a seedling of a mysterious plant called the "world tree" was planted in the center of the nine mother trees of the elves, becoming a new holy land for the elves. .

For this reason, countless wandering elven tribes all over the world have sent envoys, and even went out to make a pilgrimage to the Far South. The heat from the bottom of the blood inspires these quiet and graceful beings to do it without hesitation. Out of this'impulsive' choice.

In August and September, for two quiet months, the entire continent entered the period of late summer and early autumn preparations for harvest. During this period, the only thing worth mentioning was that the Xishan Underground Race finally ended the civil war and had envoys one after another. Coming to the world on earth to communicate, these races with superb forging craftsmanship and ancient spells inherited from the last era cautiously came into contact with their unfamiliar world on earth.

In October, news from the East China Sea occupied the main pages of all newspapers on the Mycroft mainland. Because of the changes in the deep sea tides, they were originally isolated from the rest of the world. The five murloc tribes living around the abyss of the East China Sea had to move to the eastern coast of the mainland where the ocean currents were relatively gentle. They inevitably had friction and conflict with the coastal cities of the eastern plain. The famous Sea Dragon Knights confronted the elite murloc army of sea beasts for more than half a month, until the top leaders of the two sides held a seven-day secret meeting under the auspices of the Guantian White Pagoda, and the result of this meeting was the withdrawal of the murloc tribe. The sea dragon city zone, a well-developed gem harbor, and the legendary mage Barbarossa will use his legendary power to work with the murloc high priest to raise the continental shelf, artificially creating five islands for murlocs to inhabit.

There are rumors that some murlocs and humans are dissatisfied with this result, but for some reason, the high-levels of both sides have tacitly suppressed all the restless voices at the bottom. It seems that something big is brewing in calm, like ocean currents in the deep sea. Can't be seen from the sea, but it really exists.

"and so?"

In the meeting hall of the Lord's Mansion in the northern Moldavia, Joshua, who had been resting for half a year in his hometown, lifted his head from the newspaper. He leisurely cocked his legs and lazily asked the person sitting opposite: "What made Godard (the murloc high priest), Barbarossa and Faina (the sage of the sea) all want to sit down and negotiate instead of creating a tsunami that swept the entire East China Sea?"

"Okay, my friend, don't be so bluntly looking for topics." And the middle-aged man sitting on the other side of the living room, he could see the former Nostradamus in his eyebrows, and he didn't even look up. A heavy purple-bottomed and gold-patterned magical book, is struggling to write something, the legendary mage replied in a perfunctory manner: "You know the best why they stopped."

"Actually, I'm really curious."

Shrugging, Joshua put the newspaper in his hand in Firefly's hands, and the silver-haired girl respectfully offered a cup of tea at the same time, and took a sip of the oxyhydroxide which is no longer meaningful to him. The warrior did not continue. Continue the questioning, because he knew that he was really speechless before. The reason why Barbarossa and the others stopped was obvious. It was precisely for the point of time and space distortion not long after, that is, the sacrificial field of the Ten Thousand Worlds.

The history of the world has been greatly shifted because of his existence. In the original history, the Eastern Plains at this time had just expelled the last remnants of the Dragon's Calamity. The badly wounded Mykrov faced the sudden emergence of the underground race: The dark elves and gray dwarves were very alert, and faced the aggressive murlocs who saw the weakness of the ground races, they were even more straightforward and hostile. While the three legendary powerhouses in the east were alert to each other, they were limited in the Far East. After testing each other, this caused a tsunami that destroyed several cities and medium-sized murloc tribes. So far, the murloc camp and the human camp were in a hostile state until the time of the demon invasion.

And now, because of Joshua’s existence, the mad dragon disease has been vaccinated from the very beginning, and the cult’s great plague has also been suppressed. The entire Mykrov continent has not been disturbed by the conspiracy of the five colored dragons, the abyss and the Cthulhu Church. Bones, with considerable power, the underground races and the murloc tribes would naturally not adopt too fierce attitudes. It is not surprising that the original enemies have become cold and cautious neighbors because of the two-phase influence.

Not to mention Nostradamus, a legendary powerhouse that didn’t exist at all. Because this archmage who specializes in time and space is active, the Northern Empire discovered the existence of time and space distortion points earlier, which will naturally make all The legendary powerhouses all turned their eyes on them, temporarily stopping their vigilance between each other.

"Are you going to leave after the end of the year?"

Recalling the message that Nostradam Master had come to the Northland to inform him, Joshua pondered for a while. He knew that this was the right choice. The period at the end of the year was the busiest time for all forces. The mainland countries needed Prepare to spend the cold winter, and the fish people also have to dive into the warm deep sea. Only after the initial rush, the legendary powerhouses who preside over a country will have extra time to explore the relics in the void.

To be honest, Joshua really couldn’t wait. He had a good time of peace for almost half a year. Not long ago, he even took a group of people from the lord’s mansion to the eastern plain for a round. It was an enjoyable little adventure, but this kind of little fights couldn't satisfy him at all. The fighters who had rested long enough looked forward to the next battle.

Humhhhhhhhhhh.

Regular and clear knocks came from the door of the reception hall. Both Joshua and Nostradamus were not surprised. The warrior motioned to Firefly to open the door, and the more and more conscientious maid maid also graced the front. Go opened the door, and a blonde teenager held a stack of papers in his hands nervously, and bowed slightly to the three people in the hall: "Teacher, Master Nostradamus..."

"Come here, Alva, don't be so restrained."

With a wave of his hand, Joshua let the weak-legged young man who was suppressed by the two legendary powerhouses approach him, and then he took the stack of papers from the opponent's arms and read it carefully. With Joshua’s current information processing speed, the only reason why he could not read these drafts in a hundredth of a second was because the strength of the paper was too low to withstand too fast flipping. A few seconds later, the soldier who finished reading the Alva project nodded in satisfaction, and he returned the draft to Alva: "The homework is well done, politics, history, mathematics, philosophy, the origin of extraordinary powers and preparations for actual combat tasks. All are qualified, but the next monster you plan to hunt is the Ice Sea Shark? That is a high-level monster in the inner layer of the lost sea. It is a little too difficult for you."

"No, teacher." Although a little nervous at the beginning, it is obvious that Alva has become a bit accustomed to this coercion after six months of training. The blond boy took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and then settled down. I began to explain in detail why I chose that prey: "The breathing methods of'Life Sublimation' and'Fighting Steel Armor' you taught me allow me to temporarily stimulate the high heat in my blood, and gather the flame coat that ignores the surrounding low temperature environment to move freely. , And the partners of Team One had already prepared the bait to lure the sharks ashore. The five of us cooperated and there was no problem in killing an ice-sea shark."

"It's still too rough, but intentional."

Joshua nodded unavoidably. He didn't criticize the boy too much, but waved his hand to indicate that he had agreed: "Okay, go get ready, I look forward to your success, but you have to remember, even if Failure is not a big deal. Let me remind you first: sharks and lizards are basically 4~5 activities in a family, so the so-called heads-up situation is basically impossible."

...

"You are not afraid of failure? Northland proverb: Without spring bees, there would be no summer flowers, let alone autumn fruits."

Seeing Alva walking out of the hall with some loss and distress, he could hear the quiet communication between him and the No. 1 team outside the corridor: that is, brother and sister Ivan Amila, Karin, Neil and others. Nostradamus raised his head, his brows frowned slightly, seeming to be a little uneasy: "The power level you taught these little guys is really too high, it is entirely part of the'legendary power' that extends from yourself. , This is very dangerous."

What the old mage said was indeed correct. These registered disciples of Joshua have formed a relatively mature five-person team through half a year of running-in. After a long period of planned basic teaching and actual combat drills, they have roughly mastered the kinds of skills that Joshua taught them. Special power, this has made these young girls who have not yet grown up have the ability to work together to encircle a silver peak, and even a high-level monster that has just reached the golden level. And the source of their power is the'work method' derived from Joshua’s analysis of their own power. Although the power from the legendary powerhouse is powerful, the difficulty of mastering is also incredible. For them who do not yet have a gold level, Carelessness can lead to self-destruction.

"Then I need him to be a Miao, so I can pull it out." To the master's doubts, Joshua answered a proverb that only he understood. He touched the head of the well-behaved firefly on his side and shook his head: " If it is an ordinary person, I would not use such drastic means, it will only harm them. But obviously, the little guy who can pass the trial of the fog of God is definitely not an ordinary person, and Nostradamus and Alva are also Isn't it pure human blood?"

"You can see it? That's right, after so long, you must have discovered it a long time ago."

After blinking his eyes, it seemed that the middle-aged mage laughed. He continued to lower his head, transcribed unknown words and sentences in his magic book, and whispered: "The ancestors of the Diamond family used to fight with the gem dragon The diamond dragon and the golden dragon among the metal dragons are intermarried, and they even have some fairy bloodlines in their bodies—the ghost knows how those guys shot the thumb-sized humanoid. Israel is not seen because of the sublimation of the advanced legendary life form Come out, in fact, every descendant of the imperial royal family is not pure human blood."

To be honest, for so many years, except for those psionicist families in the Xishan Kingdom, there are basically no pure-blooded humans in the entire Mykrov continent. Nostradamus did not say this sentence, he just added another sentence: "A secret that is not a secret. Today's queen has a quarter or more of the Golden Dragon bloodline. She and Israel are still Remote relatives, the combination of the two is to ensure the purity of the dragon's blood in the Diamond family-don't say that I told you this news."

Quickly said all this kind of things, but Nostradamus did not have any nervous expressions. After all, this kind of thing should be guessed by Joshua, and it is indeed not an important secret at the top. .

"No wonder..." Nodding thoughtfully, Joshua recalled the situation when he met the princes and princes: "I didn't see the prince, and the breath and talent on Di Moore are indeed a little weird... The three princes and the sixth princes have a taste of fairies. Is Alva the Golden Dragon? It's really heavy."

Where can you get better by yourself? Hearing the warrior’s very emotional evaluation, Nostradamus raised his head with a disgusting expression on his face. He first looked at the firefly on the side, and then looked out the window: There, the black dragon girl was interacting with the artificial intelligence floating in the air. The young lady played a game of throwing a ball. As the ball of light that could be touched by the entity and the magical projection at the same time, Xiaoguang was the tossed ball, and the legendary mage could also sense the black-haired teenager resting in the study on the second floor and the running one. Rune crystal.

In your Lord's Mansion, there are no human beings except the maid.

Because he didn’t want to fight with Joshua in the void, Nostradamus wisely didn’t say these words. He just closed the magic book in his hand and sighed: "I’m almost ready to go. Back to the Void Observatory."

"So a good journey." Standing up with the wizard, Joshua accompanied Nostradamus to the top of the Lord's Mansion. He watched the opponent enter the gate of time and space, then turned around and stood on a high place to look around Molda. The main city of Via.

"I really don't want to destroy this peace."

With a soft voice, Joshua looked at her territory. The snow covered the main city in winter, and turned the four rudimentary satellite cities around into a piece of white. The snow on the street was recently developed by a special snow shovel. The guide machine was transported to the outskirts of the city and piled up into a small snow-capped mountain, which has been transformed into an ice playground by the students and instructors of Winterhold College. Many parents who have time brought their children. To play here, it even attracted a lot of tourists from other parts of the empire and even came to watch it.

Anyone can enjoy this peace ~www.novelmtl.com~ but not alone.

Because only the self who knows the future has the possibility to continue to maintain this peace.

For some reason, Joshua suddenly thought of a person who was as white as this vast land, the sage, the figure of the sage in childhood echoed in his mind, and some emotions were born in the soldier's heart for some reason: this is probably the thought of the sage back then. Right?

And maybe it's a coincidence, maybe it's fate, or maybe it's resonance in the first place.

With waves of fluctuations coming from the gate of time and space again, Joshua, who originally thought that Nostradamus had returned, turned his head. What he saw was not the middle-aged legendary mage who had returned to heyday, but embraced him. Two comatose petite girls, blonde swordsman and purple-haired female mage with anxious and confused faces.

"Joshua!"

The moment Brandon stepped out of the gate of time and space, he shouted the name of the warrior, and he quickly discovered that Joshua was right in front of him. After all, the Extreme Swordsman had experienced many battlefields. As he calmed down quickly, suppressing his urgency, he whispered: "My saint's relic-the double edge of order has a problem!"
