I, the Lord of the End

Chapter 122, The Truth Seeker

【Truth Seeker】

Level: Dynasty Hallows.

"This sword is from one of my adventures."

"It is said that in the age of the dragon gods, the youngest and most vigorous of the dragon gods, the Dragon God of Light, once bestowed his knowledge and power on the mortals he liked. Following the will of the Dragon God, the mortals established seven hidden strongholds to keep A copy of the teachings of the Dragon God of Light."

"However, the Dragon God of Light is only responsible for leaving inheritance, not for teaching his followers."

"With the passage of time, the seven hiding places were gradually abandoned, and the mortals who could not understand the teachings of the Dragon God of Light gradually left, and only a young elf in one hiding place understood the test of the Dragon God of Light on mortals. "

"He realized that there is no truth that cannot be touched and is placed in an ivory tower for people to worship all day long, and there is no truth that can become the only solution to all problems without practice."

"They were wrong from the very beginning. The teachings of the Dragon God of Light cannot be understood by rote memorization and repetition. This is not the original intention of the Dragon God of Light at all."

"This truth applies to everyone, rich or poor, high or low, or intellected. Whether in the farmer's field or in the field of battle, the truth is everywhere."

"The only way to get to the truth is to keep searching for it."

"That's where the sword comes from, Seeker of Truth."

Cecilia put her sword and scabbard in Sid's hand, the voice of the high priest was as gentle as the clear spring of a mountain stream, and her left hand wearing a shining ring lightly brushed the scabbard of the sword , a series of golden runes on it flashed with her power: "I found it in a dragon god relic, it has been with me for more than 40 years, and I have been using it during the expedition to hell. After the expedition, I have a just , it can only gather dust in my hands, now I hand this sword to you, I hope you will use it to continue to pursue the truth, your truth."

Sid knelt down on one knee, stretched out his hands, and took the sword in front of the high priest.

"Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth." Sid looked at the Celestial Language on the scabbard, and said softly: "The test of whether the route is correct or not is not by reciting various scriptures and holy words, but by practice."

"exactly."

The Truth Seeker is a standard hand and half sword, with a total length of 129cm, a blade length of 93cm including the sword clip, a simple blade length of 80cm, a guard width of 25cm, a blade thickness of 0.85cm, a blade width of 4.8cm, and a weight of 3.5kg.

The whole body of the truth seeker is made of "Dragon Steel", which is one of the highest-level forging materials that can be obtained in the mortal world. The production of Dragon Steel requires a large amount of Dragon Blood Crystal + Vibration Gold + Mithril, which can be obtained through alchemy secrets. A family can only be made by master-level rune blacksmiths over 300 years old, and the weapons and armor made of raw materials are almost never damaged.

The hilt, scabbard, and sword grid are all golden runes, with a sky blue base, and white and red dragon pattern silk threads.

Sid pulled out the truthseeker, and he held it in his hand, feeling its weight and power.

The Seeker of Truth has two powerful subsidiary powers as a dynastic artifact.

[Power of Dragon Steel]: This sword is designed to restrain those creatures that are born with heavy armored skin or strong scales, and can easily break through the natural armor of dragons or similar legendary creatures.

[Arcane Break]: This sword can powerfully break through the wizard's shield and magic circle, and can be directly used to resist ballistic damage magic.

In addition to these two continuous passive abilities, the seeker of truth also has an ability that can be released actively.

[Dragon Flame Flame Tongue]: absorbs the life force of the sword holder and extends the blade length up to 40cm in the form of flame, with additional dragon flame damage.

It's an almost perfect weapon.

This is the weapon Sid needs most at this stage.

Sid couldn't be more satisfied with it. He accepted the truth seeker as a treasure, and knelt on one knee in the snow to salute the great priest. He was really moved.

Cecilia was so kind to him.

"I will definitely repay your kindness to me, mentor." Sid rested his chest with one hand, and he said very seriously: "I am the Eternal God of the Ring God, and I am Sid-Aberum's I swear to you, I will definitely repay your love for me."

"Oh, is it?" A small white silk foot kicked Sid's calf lightly, Cecilia stretched out her left hand to reveal the ring on the middle finger that was shining with colorful light, her face blushed, "I'm not Already got it?"

"That's what He gave you." Sid shook his head, he knew who belonged to whom most clearly: "I'm responsible for my share."

"You will be responsible?" Cecilia's smile became brighter.

"Yes, I will be responsible." Sid pursed his lips, and he nodded slightly.

She helped herself in her most difficult time, she gave herself safety when she was on the verge of madness, she shared everything with herself selflessly, and brought him hope when he was most desperate.

She had already left an indelible mark on his heart, a very unique place.

Sid won't tell anyone.

[Suzheng Agreement] It is not only an agreement that will immediately cause the seven seal prophecies to start early and the disaster of annihilation to come earlier, it is also a self-destruction agreement prepared by the God of the Ring for his Eternal God Chosen. If determined to activate, he will self-destruct.

Because that means that he no longer has "observation value", and naturally there is no need for further investigation.

Sid is gone, and the world is gone, simple as that.

After a series of events, it was late at night in the ruined temple.

The candlelight dinner was over, and Sid and Cecilia were sitting on chairs, about half a body apart.

After these things, the relationship between Sid and Cecilia became much more natural, and they became less restrained and more relaxed with each other.

The two of them sat for a while, and they had a tacit understanding not to talk about those heavy topics, gods, doomsday, and power, but just chatted about trivial matters in daily life. Cecilia was not stingy about her own experience, she Sharing a lot of experience and fun with Sid, and Sid himself is a good talker, he quickly made the great priest laugh.

The flames were gradually extinguished, the night was getting deeper and deeper, the dark sky was covered with a thick layer of wind noise, the outside world became terrifying and uncertain, and only each other remained between them.

Neither Cecilia nor Sid stopped talking tacitly. The great priest closed her long white silk legs under the long skirt. She stood up leaning on the just man and said softly, "I should go, Sid."

"I'll see you off." Sid also got up.

Cecilia will not and cannot act together with Sid. First of all, her goal is too big, both for mortals and gods, and secondly, she also has her own things to do.

"No need." Cecilia shook her head gently: "Take care of your own affairs first, Sid, remember, many people will be your enemies and obstacles to you, so don't die."

"Don't worry, I won't die until I repay you, and..." Sid smiled, and he reached out to hold the Nirvana Angel on his chest. This artifact is always burning with platinum flames: "I have this."

"Heh... the little guy is very confident!" Cecilia stood up, and she gave Sid a big hug: "Your road ahead is very difficult and dangerous, remember, never give up hope, there are still many beautiful things in this world It is worth pursuing, and there are still many lights worth protecting and cherishing.”

"I will always remember." Sid watched Cecilia step into the snow, and he let out a long breath.

A new journey is about to begin.

Sid took out the Holy Grail of Nightmare, and through the black bubbling slurry, he saw the direction.

north.

After resting in the ruined temple and recovering some energy, Sid packed up his things and headed north.

The snow is still falling, but Sid's mood is completely different. He enjoys the cold wind that hits his face, and feels the harvest brought by this trip to the wolf:
Occupation: Warrior Advanced Templar Thorn.

Classic-level feats: Eye of Judgment, Way of Sword Soul, Unyielding Purification.

Hero-level feats: Shadow of Judgment, Flashback of fallen leaves (not mastered).

Skills to master: basic swift swordsmanship, black vulture swordsmanship, push back, spiral thrust, shadow under the mountain, shadow contract, waterfall slash, gift of relief.

Primary Weapon: Truth Seeker (Dynasty Hallows).Secondary weapon: Gemini silver wolf (epic treasure).

Armor: Black Eagle Royal Guard standard chain armor.

Coupled with the sublimation power of the emperor's blood that he has, the current Sid is completely different from the previous self.

It is worth mentioning that this Gemini Silver Wolf.

On the way down the mountain, Sid drew out a reward from the Wolf Principality, the twin silver wolves.

This treasure is obviously an epic treasure, and it has not been actively enchanted. I don't know why it was introduced as a legendary treasure with active enchantment, but it became an epic treasure in my hands?

It seems that Celeste's statement is not completely accurate, Sid thought with a smile.

He thought of the princess' last questioning again, and he thought of the two months he spent with Celesty.

The white-haired boy sighed slightly. In the end, they went on opposite paths. They were not in the same way. Their tempers were actually quite similar, and it was impossible for them to give in for each other.

Through her own efforts and her efforts, this time the mission of the Central Dynasty, Celestia, was done very beautifully. Not only did she invite a great priest to recast the glory of the empire, which shocked the world, but also formed a great shock to the local nobles. A large amount of political capital has been made.

After the matter is over, she will definitely be rewarded heavily when she returns to the capital. Will the two people's fates intersect in the future?
Sid didn't know.

He stretched out his hand to hold the Nirvana Angel on his chest. When he activated this artifact, due to the influence of the remaining will, a little power flowed back to Celesty's body, forming a spirit pattern on her body.

Use my power wisely, my lord.

This is my gift to you.

Sid continued down the hill, and he continued to think.

My relationship line seems to have become a bit confused, big sister, princess, great priest.

However, it doesn't matter!
Lao Tzu is the God of Eternal Chosen!Sid thought confidently, couldn't this little problem be solved?
The sky was getting brighter, and the Eternal God Chosen was acting alone in the mountain path. New news soon came from the Eye of Judgment.

There is a large group of people blocking the road in front of the mountain road!
Sid sneered, and he subconsciously reached out to hold the truth seeker at his waist.

That's right, I'm about to get someone to try out my new weapon!
Since you are looking for death...

Moving on, as the people in the distance became more and more clear in the eyes of judgment, Sid felt amused.

What kind of bandits are these, holding pitchforks, hoes, sickles, and hammers, and there are old people, children, and women, and the adult men look at themselves with fear.

So you still come to rob?
An old man with a long staff came out of the crowd. He was very old, with loose gray hair and a long messy beard. He spread his arms: "Hero, please stay!"

hero?Sidhai's blue pupils widened slightly.

I am a hero?
Gradually loosening the hand of the truth seeker, he came before the group of people.

The crowd erupted in cheers. They praised Sid's good deeds with scarce words and offered Sid a small amount of food.

They are not bandits, they are nearby villagers, they came to thank the hero.

From the mouth of the elder, Sid knew the reason:

The poor Rezlans live here, and they have to do whatever it takes to survive in this barren land, and they have to work very hard to have a roof big enough to cover their bodies and a half-filled bed before dark. Stomach to sleep.

Recently, the nearby robbers frequently walked out of the mountains.

It was yet another major blow to a village teetering on the brink of famine after a poor harvest this year, and these raiders ravaged the outlying settlements, with the nearby nobles decimated by Friedland's defeat, and no army to stop them.

Bandits marched east, attacking everyone they encountered in their path, slaughtering adults, taking children, and stealing valuable livestock.

The villagers will be killed if they don't run, hunted if they run, and bandits will burn them out of their shelters if they hide.

Bandits kill for food and kill for entertainment.

But then they meet Sid.

He alone slaughtered the cottage with nearly 200 people.

"Your Majesty Cecilia, we are very lucky." The village elder thanked Sid for his help: "Things could have been worse."

"thank you, sir."

"We will be forever grateful to you."

"Your good deeds saved us, you saved the whole village."

People gathered, they tried to pay Sid enough, they took out their winter reserves.

"My lord, we don't know how much it will cost you to make a move. Your strength may be at the model level or even higher, but in the name of Cecilia, we will repay you." The village elder said guiltily. : "Take everyone's things, this is all we have."

If it weren't for the solemn and serious attitude of the villagers and elders, Sid might have laughed outright.

A farmer in sackcloth holds a sack of wheat, a woman in a turban holds two sticks of bacon, and a young maiden looks up at Sid eager to deliver her bad beer to the Sid's mouth.

And the village elder, who held a small bag of copper pfennigs in his hand, perhaps twenty or thirty of them.

These things can't match the price of Sid's shot at all, he is a white-headed guy with heroic strength!
I am very expensive!As Sid thought, even if the village tried its best, it would not be able to repay him.

At this moment, he saw a little girl emerging from the crowd. She was very short, only about one meter old, and she was only five or six years old. She was holding half a piece of black bread in her arms, and there were teeth marks on the black bread.

Her brown hair was combed into two braids, and she didn't seem to be able to speak very well. Amid the exclamation of the adults, the little girl got out of the crowd and bumped her head on Sid's thigh.

"Hana!" Someone exclaimed, "Come back!"

The little girl shook her head stubbornly. She raised her head to look at Sid, and sent half a piece of black bread in her hand to Sid.

"For me?" Sid smiled.

The little girl nodded vigorously, and she stuffed the black bread into Sid's hand vigorously, motioning him to accept it.

The child's eyes told Sid that she meant it.

Sid solemnly knelt down on one knee and took the leftover piece of black bread with both hands: "Can I really accept such an expensive gift?"

"Brother, thank you, let's play together." Seeing that Sid accepted, the little girl laughed happily.

"For sure next time." Sid stuffed the black bread into his arms and put it away, not caring that the residue on it stained his gorgeous black eagle guard uniform. The white-haired boy hugged the little girl in his arms, filled with warmth his heart.

A village is not its houses but its people.

A gratitude does not depend on the value of the gift, but on whether it is sincere.

After a big hug, Sid gently pushed the little girl away, beckoning her to go back to the worried parents. The sunrise was shining on his face, and the weather was still cold, but his heart was warm.

Looking at these simple villagers, Sid felt the most primitive and simple emotional impulse in his heart.

I come from the people and go to the people.

I should do something for them, the humans of this world.
