Chapter 418 King Arthur's Sword

Although the Blue Star Trisolaran Organization has been announced to be established, it is still not completely under the sun. It can only be regarded as a semi-public organization. The news that the Trisolaran Fleet will enter the solar system will inevitably bring about great social turmoil. Now the world Having just experienced the impact of the apocalypse, and the societies of several big countries have just stabilized, this time is really not suitable for exposing the news of the Trisolaran world to ordinary people.

Two days after the first meeting of the Blue Star Three-Body Organization, Lu Renyi met Fang Muye again, but this time the meeting place was not at Lu Renyi's home or some top-notch restaurant, although Fang Muye felt that this place It was normal, but Yang Jianqiang and the others were a little surprised, because they returned to the Holy Trinity Cathedral.

Of course, this time they will not stand in the main hall of the church and listen to Lu Renyi's impassioned promotion of the program of the Blue Star Three-Body Organization like last time. Fang Muye and his party, led by the nuns, soon came to Holy Trinity In the only reception room of the cathedral.

The Holy Trinity Cathedral is undoubtedly a very luxurious place. The reception room is equipped with famous paintings and classical sculptures, velvet carpets and various exquisite decorations. With strong but lively tones, bold and atmospheric layout, The almost natural and graceful lines give everyone who comes to this reception room the most honorable experience as if they are close to God.

The church was extremely quiet at this moment. This church was once again contracted by Lu Renyi. When Fang Muye and his party first entered the church, they could still hear the choir practicing magnificent repertoire. After the reception room, everything became silent again.

"Mr. Fang, it's a great honor to see you again. I've been looking forward to this moment since the meeting ended that day."

There was a sincere smile on Lu Renyi's face, and no one could deny it. He acted like he was meeting an old friend who hadn't seen him for a long time.

Fang Muye said: "Mr. Lu, I am the same way. I actually had a lot to say at the party before. If you hadn't proposed to meet today, I am afraid that the party would have been delayed for a long time."

While speaking, Fang Muye was still looking at the furnishings in the reception room, and soon his eyes were attracted by a long sword behind Lu Renyi.

It was an extremely luxurious western-style long sword. Fang Muye estimated the length of this sword, and it was actually longer than his golden holy sword. Fang Muye could only see the wide sword of this sword. Made of gold, the hilt is inlaid with gemstones, while the edge of the sword body is completely contained in the scabbard.

Lu Renyi noticed Fang Muye's gaze, and after turning his head to look at Fang Muye's gaze, he said to Fang Muye: "This sword is in the bishop's private possession, it seems to have some origins, and I have a good personal relationship with the bishop here. He said it could be the legendary sword of King Arthur."

Fang Muye asked curiously: "Oh? There's more than just some history. I'm afraid it's well known in England. Could this be the legendary Sword in the Stone?"

Lu Renyi shook his head and said, "No, this should be the sword in the lake. You can also call it Excalibur. It's the sword of kings."

"In the mythology I understand, Excalibur seems to be the sword in the stone. What's the difference between the sword in the stone and the sword in the lake?" Fang Muye continued to ask.

"Every myth that has been handed down to the present may have two or more different versions. For ordinary people, it is enough to know only one of them. Mr. Fang seems to know something about the story of King Arthur. If you are not in a hurry to discuss the real matter If so, let's talk about the story of King Arthur first." Lu Renyi said.

Fang Muye smiled and said: "It's okay, you are also a cultivator, I believe you can feel that this sword is different, there may be hundreds of swords in the stone in England, but only the one behind you It's a genuine talent, so I'm really interested in the Arthurian story."

"Alright Mr. Fang, then I'll start telling you the story of the sword in the stone."

"The sword in the stone first appeared on Christmas Eve in a church. Just as people finished their confession, they looked up and saw a sword stuck in a square stone. There were gold letters around it:' Whoever can draw this sword from the stone platform, and who is born in England, is the king of all England.' After the mass, all the people present tried to draw the sword, but no one could Pull it out. So the bishop ordered ten highly respected knights to guard the sword. In the new year, the knights participated in the tournament. King Arthur's adoptive father took his eldest son Kai to participate in the tournament. Since Arthur was young, I haven't been made a knight yet, so I didn't participate."

"Later, Kai, who was careless, forgot to bring his sword. This might cause him to be defeated and humiliated in the contest, and even seriously injured. So he asked Arthur to ride to get the sword. When Arthur rushed to the house where he was staying, he found the owner He locked the door of the room to watch the tournament. Disoriented Arthur suddenly remembered the sword in the stone, and hurried to the church to draw the sword, only to find that all ten knights guarding the sword had also gone to the tourney. In desperation, Arthur held the hilt unsupervised and drew the sword in a single stroke. When he handed it to Kay, Kay recognized it as the Sword in the Stone and passed it on to her father."

"Their father couldn't believe his eyes, and he never thought that Arthur would be able to pull the sword. Then he stuck the sword back into the stone, but neither he nor Kay could pull it out, and Arthur Once again, the sword was pulled out easily. Because Arthur was too young, the nobles were unwilling to bow their heads and bow their heads. They asked Arthur to pull out the sword in the stone in public many times, but they still did not believe that this was their true son. As time passed, the people They began to agree that Arthur was king, and they opposed the nobles' repeated delays. Shortly thereafter, Arthur became king of all England."

After Lu Renyi finished speaking, Fang Muye smiled and said, "Interesting, it turned out that the first time the Sword in the Stone appeared in a church, and there are many stories about this kind of divine artifact being given to the right man in China." , Mr. Lu, please continue to talk."

The reason why he pays attention to this sword is naturally that he feels the extraordinaryness of this sword. This is undoubtedly a divine sword left over from ancient times.

Lu Renyi continued: "The sword in the stone broke during the duel with King Bolinnuo. At that time, King Bolinnuo refused to fight with the sword many times and only fought with the spear. The two previous two spear competitions were evenly divided. The third time King Arthur lost unfortunately. Although King Bolinnuo repeatedly emphasized that he did not want to compete with swordsmanship, King Arthur, who refused to admit defeat, finally pulled out his sword. After a deadly fight, the sword in the stone was finally cut by King Bolino break."
