Chapter 321: Winter and Frost
“…… The Othur Empire was made up of refugees? ”
The news took Annan by surprise.
He had never heard anything like it, not a word.
His history of the people of Orser can be traced back to the Tertiary Period.
At the turn of the Second and Third Ages, an epochal catastrophe occurred - a desert equivalent to three-quarters of the continent of Athran was brought to life. It moves around unscrupulously, like an active child.
So the Othur Empire moved and paid a huge price, and the remnants of the defeated army finally fled the desert and arrived in an oasis of abundance and peace.
- "Yaseran" means "oasis".
At this time, the technology of the Yaserans was only developing to the equivalent of the early Middle Ages. They are simply vulnerable to the Oters...... Without even waging a decent war, it was easily defeated and ruled.
To commemorate the escape of the Oters from the desert, they changed the name of the new empire to "Yaseran", which means the land of oases.
At that time, on the continent of Yaseran, it could be roughly divided into two kinds of people - the Othurs and the Yaselans.
The Yaserans are the original humans, dwarves, and werewolves on the continent of Yathran...... And the Otersians are the elves and centaurs.
And by this time, there were not many remnants of the people of Othur. Their numbers determined that it was impossible for them to rule such a large continent, so they simply divided it up. Many small kingdoms and principalities were born one after another in the Tertiary Period.
And the end of the Tertiary period has nothing to do with the world west of the desert.
They could only confirm through prophetic spells that the Third Age was suddenly over.
And from the end of the Tertiary period, the number of elves suddenly began to decline sharply. After a blank of two hundred years, history gradually became clear-
With the expansion of the native population, the increase in the number of transcendents, and the technology of the people of Othur that has somehow stagnated and even begun to regress on a large scale, as well as the increasingly scarce races and shrinking circles of domination, the people of Yaseran have finally regained their political status within the Yaseran Empire, returning to an equal position with the former colonists.
In fact, at the end of the Quaternary period...... Before the fall of the Yaseran Metropolitan Area, the number of elves had been reduced to only three digits, and they had basically lost their substantial power - the centaurs, unlike their innate strength, were a very timid race, essentially existing as a subordinate race of elves.
However, because they are tired of the power struggle in the metropolitan area, a considerable number of horsemen are not in the metropolitan area. And the elves are always in a group...... And there is a considerable degree of power consciousness, so all of them live in the capital area where science and technology are most developed.
It wasn't until the land sinking in the capital area of Yaseran that the elves were finally completely exterminated. Even if there are remnants, they are in the single digits at most.
Then came the collapse of the Great Barrier, the collapse of the Yaseran Empire, and then centuries of chaotic civil war...... In this bloody battle for the gods, the number of centaurs has also been greatly weakened.
Eventually, the horses, who were not good at fighting with others and liked to run away when they encountered difficulties, finally gave up the struggle for power completely and returned to the wilderness far from the Yaseran civilization to rebuild their own living settlement.
At present, the centaurs can only be seen on the islands of the United Kingdom.
…… Judging from the information on Bofits's side, whether it is the sudden sinking of the Yaseran Empire in the Quaternary Age, or the sharp decrease in the number of elves since the beginning of the Third Age, the advanced technology that the people of Othur cannot use without warning should be related to this energy technology called "spell energy".
But......
Does "Osser" mean a flight caused by demons?
Could this be the plague of the First Age?
…… No wonder, the Oters are made up of elves and centaurs.
Elves are characterized by being born with a silver soul. If you embark on the path of ascension, you will start with the silver level, and you will not be able to become a degenerate.
Centaurs, on the other hand, are particularly adept at escaping - each is the best prophet of all, as well as a strong warrior and a timid coward.
They predict the future and exercise again, just to ensure that they don't die, and they don't have any strong desires. So even if they have a larger population than the elves, they will become a subordinate race of the elves.
And the news given from Bofis made Annan a little worried.
Devils......
…… Speaking of which, there are many degenerates and demons on the royal capital.
While Annan was pondering, Bofis continued to communicate with Citalopram: "Speaking of Mother's Book of Truth...... All I know is that it's called 'Ode to the Storm and the Heart'. But my mother didn't tell me exactly what it was, so I didn't know very well.
"But I think that since there is the word 'heart', this should be the reason why my mother found a way to get the 'heart of justice'."
"The heart of justice?"
"Yes...... A holy skeleton is a part of the body of the saints. The holy bones left behind by the Righteous Sage are his heart. ”
Bofis replied seriously: "But Mom, she thinks that she may not be recognized by the 'Righteous Heart' for the time being, so she plans to seal it first.
"Because the holy bones will continue to pump out the power of the curse...... If someone signs a holy covenant with it, it becomes an infinite source of the Sage's power. However, if you do not have a holy deed...... It will be like the eye of a fountain, spewing out a steady stream of curses.
"And it's constantly fluctuating to attract adapters. But in general, the most satisfying ...... the Holy Bones It will not be a gold-level transcendent, but an ordinary person. They are simply not able to carry the power of the Holy Bones, and once they forcibly use the Holy Bones, their souls will soon collapse and disintegrate, and it will not take more than a month at most.
"And because of the power infused by the holy bones, they will become a nightmare on a massive scale when they die. Therefore, in addition to being an extremely rare item, the holy skeleton is also a big and difficult problem to solve.
"And the only way to make the holy bones sleep is the 'Dragon Sleep Elixir'."
“…… Dragon Sleep? ”
Citalopram heard a familiar word.
She vaguely remembered that the old grandmother seemed to be a dragon or something...... But the specifics are not very clear.
Bofis unconsciously explained to her: "That's what you think...... It's the state that cold-blooded ladies get into every once in a while. But that's just an adjective......
This means that once this potion is taken, or even just touched, it will fall into a decades-long dragon sleep that is difficult to wake up, just like the old grandmother. Its smell alone is enough to make a person unconscious.
"It's the most powerful anesthetic, enough to put dragons to sleep. As such, it is also a dragon hunting elixir...... But it's very difficult to refine, mainly because one of its essential ingredients is the 'Active Blood of an Adult Dragon'.
"The so-called 'active blood' is the blood donor's voluntary reception from the body after a ceremony...... As a result, it carries a small amount of its own spirit blood. It is difficult to regenerate active blood once it has been drained, but it also has a special effect like fresh blood.
"And if you kill the dragon, or draw blood while the dragon is sleeping, or even the blood collected normally, it will not have this effect. Only by soaking the bones in the dragon's sleep potion can they be put to sleep. ”
“…… Oooh! That's why your mom would-"
"That's right, that old grandmother's painting was sold to a dragon by my mother to make a dragon sleeping potion. However, the dragon seemed to be satisfied, and easily agreed to his mother's request, selling forty copies of active blood. It adds up to about the size of a bathtub ......"
When Bofis said this, there was also some surprise in his tone: "Even if Mr. Dragon is very large, this loss is very ...... But after all, it's an old grandmother's painting.,Understand and understand.。 The old grandmother is the idol of the dragons.
"Speaking of which...... You said that friend of yours is a descendant of an old grandmother? What is his last name? ”
"His surname is 'Rindong'. This seems to be a sign of the descendants of old grandmothers. ”
“…… What the? ”
Bofis was a little confused.
"But as far as I know, the descendants of the old grandmother...... Shouldn't the surname Frost Language?
"Or is he not a dragon?"
