Soul of Burning Steel

There is no doubt that the aura of the Azure Orb and the robe are exactly the same, and Joshua did not lie about this matter.

Although Urbani still has doubts in his heart, the fluctuation of the power of order cannot be faked, and the person who possesses this fluctuation of power only has "that" in his memory, and "that" That being said, he is not alone.

It's just that neither he nor the Titans ever imagined that it would be thousands of years later when they met their companions again.

Therefore, the Lord of the Dark River sighed, and then said in a slightly helpless tone: "You are late, mighty warrior, just a few minutes ago, the companion you were looking for was still in this mountain range."

It didn't take Urbandeni and Joshua much time to explain all this. With the giant's thunderous voice, the progress of all events was unfolded.

At the cost of the seed of the holy stone, Silya asked Urban Deni to protect herself. Originally, the Titan only wanted to protect her for 20 days because there were too many pursuers behind her. The light of the saint decided to send it safely to the tomb of the saint in the southwest of the mainland.

But what they didn't expect was that the number of pursuers of the dead shadows was enough to surround the entire Shaya Mountains—the overwhelming shadow monsters flooded the mountains and forests like a sea tide, shaking the earth, and they didn't really want to expose their full strength , Urbani, who can only fight against the enemy in the form of a tree man, can only protect Silya's safety at best, but there is no way to send her out.

Then, the arrival of the three commanders of the dead shadow.

"As we all know, there are intelligent beings among the shadows of the dead." While the giant titan was speaking, the eyes of the purple fire scanned the surrounding world. Under its gaze, many remaining weak undead were instantly wiped out: "Their power is powerful! , can control other dead shadows, and can also enhance one's own strength through the death of other dead shadows."

And Joshua nodded after hearing this sentence. He flew all the way from the southeastern edge of the mainland, and indeed saw many such dead shadows. Because he felt the danger of this kind of existence, he eradicated them all.

"And in this world, the most powerful shadow commanders are all gathered in Gaetar, the former imperial capital of the Ulan Empire. There are seven of them. When they were alive, their identities were all those who once shook the world and let their legends spread among countless people. The great heroes transmitted by the posterity, they are chasing and killing your companion."

Feeling the injury on his left shoulder, Urbani's tone couldn't help but tinge with anger, and a thunderous voice echoed in the sky: "I didn't know their true identities in the past, but now, at least I know who they are. With the sun-falling arrow Erammus."

Needless to say, what happened after that, facing the attack of the three major dead shadows, even Urbani couldn't hide his clumsiness, he could only use his full strength as a titan, and he couldn't take care of Dragon Wing in the fierce battle The girl simply built a random teleportation array that could only determine the general direction, and teleported Silya away.

"Is that so?"

After listening to it, Joshua was not disappointed. He had long thought that his career would not be smooth sailing. Now at least he was sure that the other party was not dead and the relic of the fourth sage was intact. This is already considered a good situation. You know, In Pope Eagle's worst guess, the coordinate information that passed through many worlds was likely to be generated by the explosion of the sage's relic.

After thinking for a while, Joshua asked, "Then, can you roughly determine where it is?"

"The area I framed is the west."

Urban Deni shook his head, and a lot of rubble fell from the huge black rock head mountain: "Other than that, I don't know anything, I'm not good at teleportation, as for whether she is underground or in the sky , I don’t know the slightest bit.”

——Although unreliable, but still straightforward.

Thinking that the target he was looking for might be teleported directly into the underground rock formation, Joshua couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, but then the soldier felt that the relics of the sages would not be so useless and let the inheritors die so easily.

But in any case, there is probably no way to find the other party quickly now.

After thinking about it, Joshua raised his head and looked at the towering titan like a mountain. Urban Deni, who was like a human-shaped rock mountain, had an incomparable majesty. It is the so-called giant sea king beast, the hanging island whale, which is just a plaything in the opponent's hands, and the giant dragon is no different from a chicken to it.

At this time, the giant was also looking at the warrior. The breath from Joshua's heart made the Titan, who had been sleeping for a long time, recall some vague memories from a long time ago. These memories made the purple fire in its eyes deep Flickering, releasing bright and dark light.

"Then, Lord of the Dark River, I don't plan to take back these sacrifices, I want to ask other questions."

And just as Urbandeni was deep in thought, Joshua's words interrupted its memory, but it didn't have much dissatisfaction, only endless emotion.

Those are all vague memories that it has long forgotten and are about to gradually disappear in the spiritual sea. If it weren't for this breath, it might have completely forgotten those past events.

"Okay, let's ask." The giant replied when he came back to his senses.

"Why did this world become like this?"

Joshua's words were simple and direct.

He has been to many different worlds in the past, the barren continent of Karlis, the natural land of Ilgna, and the broken air land of the Blood Moon Abyss. These worlds are all on the verge of destruction or have already been destroyed. , When the soldiers arrived, everything had already happened, and all that was left was counterattack and resistance.

But the situation in the Grandia world is slightly different. Although this continent is full of ferocious undead, human gathering places are still dotted around every corner.

What's more, according to the old heroic spirit Yaren, the four major human settlements located around the Tomb of the Saint in the southwest of the mainland still have extremely advanced reserves of magic technology. They have already reclaimed a lot of wasteland and started to re-establish production and construction— ——If this is the end, then everything has become the worst, and then it can only get better slowly. The warrior believes that with the level of magic in this world, one day he will find a way to completely eliminate the shadow of death.

Compared with the previous destruction caused by the evil gods, there is still a possibility of salvation in this world, and it does not need to rely on miracles, only hard work is needed.

"Is the reason why the world has become like this... Wait."

After a moment of silence, the titan's head turned slowly. It looked towards the northwest side of the continent and said with a disdainful smile, "Okay, the peepers are gone, and I don't need to keep fighting."

As soon as the words fell, the giant's body quickly collapsed, turning into a mountain composed of gravel, and countless black-brown veins that looked like plant roots, looked like living things, and looked like plants sank into the ground like this, making the original The dark forest that was destroyed by the previous war returned to its original state.

The lava cooled down, and the dead air was purified. After a while, the entire Shaya Mountains returned to calm, and a giant treant who seemed to be formed by condensed tree roots also broke out from the ground on the peak in front of Joshua, appearing In front of his eyes: "You want to know why the world has become like this?"

"That's right." The soldier nodded, not only to satisfy his curiosity, but also to know if there was any evil spirit behind this.

After all, in the multiverse, there are not a few worlds destroyed by the undead.

"That's good...but all of this will start decades ago."

The purple fire one-eyed giant treant stared deeply at Joshua, and then it began to narrate in a deep voice.

This is not a gloomy story with a secret conspiracy, nor is it an impassioned epic legend. The beginning of everything is just a normal technical confrontation between the two empires.

The Grandia continent is divided and occupied by two major forces, the Ulan Empire and the Gelug Empire. One side popularizes psychic spells, and the other side has a large population. Except for large-scale frontal wars, they are fighting against almost everything. The strength of magical technology is naturally the most important thing.

A warrior of the heavenly realm, with all his strength, can destroy a city, but a heavenly spellcaster, with all his strength, is enough to turn everything in the end of his field of vision into a sea of ​​flames. There is no distinction between high and low strength, but there is no doubt that spellcasters are more suitable for war. In order to give the spellcasters on their own side an advantage, the Ulan Empire is doing its best.

"From unknown ancient books, they found a way to use relics and holy stone seeds as energy sources to summon heroic spirits that have long since passed away in the past, and then ignored that many heroic spirits did not want to be awakened, just like this. Come back and let these heroes of the past fight for themselves."

Urban Deni's voice was full of ridicule and helpless sigh: "So naturally, many powerful heroic spirits don't intend to work for them, even many heroes who were originally from the Ulan Empire are dissatisfied. "

The next thing is easy to understand, even Joshua can guess three points - the Ulan Empire tempted the heroic spirits to fight for them with great profits, but the effect was not good, and most of the national treasury had been invested for this experiment Naturally, the emperor and the Marshals of Magus couldn't bear their own failures for this reason, and they immediately began to look for ways to control the heroic spirits.

"Then..." Hearing this, the soldier said softly.

"Then." The giant shook his head heavily: "Then the end of the world came."

"At that time, the Ulan Empire summoned seven heroic spirits who were considered powerful even in all history. Since I have been staying in the Dark River Forest, I don't know their identities. If the Lan Empire's plan is successful, the situation on the continent whose balance of power has been broken will naturally change in their favor, but a sudden earthquake destroys everything - and then, there is a strange fog that covers the whole world, this fog can make people The dead come back to life, and let the dead shadows go berserk."

"What else did you say?"

Joshua suddenly frowned. He could distinguish the truth from the falsehood and the absence of all the words from the fluctuation of the soul and the change of tone. The soldier said with some dissatisfaction: "You only talked about the process, but you didn't talk about the most important thing. reason."

"What on earth is it that makes the end of the world come?"

"Have you noticed it?" Urban Deni didn't panic because of this, it stared at the chest of a soldier, where the light was shining before the Azure Orb, the giant was silent for a long time, and then said softly: "Maybe you can know This truth... After all, you might be from there, the hometown of 'that'."

Not paying attention to Joshua's frown because of doubt, Urbani's tree body moved slightly, and then said softly: "As you can see, I am a Titan."

It stretched out its palm made of trees, stroking the rocks on the top of the mountain: "The lifespan of a Titan is almost endless."

"What do you want to say?" The soldier asked with some doubts.

"When I was an embryo of the earth, I have witnessed the world from violent to calm - when the ancestors came to this world, the anger at the beginning of the creation made the whole continent still a sea of ​​lava and fire, mixed with endless water vapor The underground poisonous mist shrouded the sky and the abyss, and 'that' used the ritual of the saint to control the power of creation to make the world what you and I see today."

Urbani said lightly, and it told the truth of its guess: "Because of the oath, I was bound in the middle of the continent. Of course I don't know the real reason why the world has become like this-but I can sense it. , the mist that brought this world back to death, has the ritual atmosphere that brought the world back to peace a long, long time ago, but its purpose is just the opposite."

"Okay, human, this question ends here, you are an existence from another world, why do you ask so much information about our world."

After finishing speaking, the Titan ended the topic. It took away the original crystal donated by the warrior, and then said calmly: "What's the problem? Although you wounded me, I also know that it was your arrival that made those With the dead shadows gone, I can do one more thing for you."

"No... wait."

After writing down all the messages of Urbani, Joshua originally wanted to say no, he didn’t need any help, but then the soldier changed his mind and said, “Urbandeni, you are indeed a The name is Chongshan Titan, right?"

"Chongshan Titan? Probably, my bloodline only tells me that I am a descendant of the Mother Goddess, the bloodline of God, and also a Titan, but I don't know exactly what kind of Titan it is."

In this regard, the giant has nothing to hide, it asked with some doubts: "Soldier, what do you want to do by asking this?"

Joshua smiled slightly.

Through the information given by Yaleen and Urbani, he has roughly understood part of the truth of this world.

The world of Grandia is a brand-new world that has just been born for only a few thousand years. Before the arrival of the "ancestors" led by a sage apostle in the Mycroft continent, it was still a sea of ​​lava and fire, but the apostle With the power of sage rituals, the whole world became what it is today.

The shadow of death that is invading the entire world today is probably the result of this ritual being transformed.

As for why the sages and apostles led so many people, even a son of the earth god, a titan embryo, to this world, the soldiers guessed that it was probably to leave seeds—the Mycroft continent had long since died, and the war with the evil god was even more serious. It is very likely that the whole world will collapse. Of course, the sage will not directly lead people to escape like the father of nature, but he will definitely leave behind, and other gods will naturally intervene for the continuation of their descendants .

As for the Mother Earth...

Fire extends the light of existence, steel shapes the origin of things, the earth is the ashes of fire, the rust of steel, and the power of the earth itself is one of the most important derivatives of the power of steel, and the direct blood of the Mother Earth, worships Shan Taitan's ability to integrate many elements into one is one of the forces closest to the power of steel.

"I want to observe and analyze your body structure, mighty Titan."

Therefore, Joshua nodded, and said firmly in an extremely serious tone: "It won't take long, just let me see it!"

As for Urbani, he was silent for a long time, no expression could be seen on the face shaped by tree roots, but the purple flames in his eyes were beating crazily.

"Do you want another fight? Human?!"
