Chapter 341: The Ancestor of the Human Race
Butterfly effect.
This is a phenomenon that Lin Yue has witnessed many times since he was reborn, but in fact, after being reborn, what happened in this world or this parallel world is very different from Lin Yue's memories before he was reborn.
It is hard to imagine that there are many reborn people like Lin Yue who are reborn at the same time, and what a terrifying impact it will have.
"Marquis Tuhao, now you should see that I am currently under house arrest, ahem...... And also suffered from a major 'disease'. ”
David's coughing sound pulled Lin Yue's thoughts back, Lin Yue's gaze fell on his head full of white hair, and he pouted half-loudly: "What kind of disease do you have?" ”
The old marshal obviously has a debuff icon with a "poisoned" state hanging on his head, and he actually says that he is sick?
David seemed to know what was going on, and said with a wry smile: "Again, it doesn't matter what kind of illness it is, what matters is what I talked to you about today." ”
"You want to say that war will break out between the Eastern and Western Continents soon?"
"That's right."
"You should know that these things have nothing to do with me, I am an adventurer, even if war breaks out, it is just an increase for us adventurers to take on some war-related tasks."
"I know."
David nodded heavily, half loudly, and said: "Brother Tuhao, Marquis, I know that you are an adventurer, but you are also a nobleman of our human race, and you are the only one who has a noble title and territory among all adventurers at present, I ...... Ahem......"
The old marshal's speech was interrupted by a sudden violent cough, he covered his mouth and coughed painfully, his shoulders kept shaking, it seemed that his illness was really serious, no, it should be said that he was deeply poisoned.
The coughing continued, Lin Yue didn't speak, and quietly waited for the old man in front of him to come to his senses.
"Sorry for making you laugh." I don't know how long it took, David let go of the hand covering his mouth, but Lin Yue saw that the handkerchief he was holding in the palm of his hand was stained with blood.
The blood was very viscous and thick, like a dark green mass of thick phlegm, obviously highly toxic.
David didn't seem to see the blood on the handkerchief, just folded it and threw it on the table at the head of the bed, and then said: "Brother Marquis, I won't say polite words, since you are an adventurer, then you should know that the only thing I can do when I come to you is to issue a task." ”
Lin Yue shrugged, "If your task is attractive enough, I will take it." ”
David's face, which had turned pale from coughing just now, showed a smile because of Lin Yue's words, and he said in a very affirmative tone: "Don't worry, the content of the task and the rewards are enough to make the hearts of ordinary adventurers excited." ”
Lin Yue smiled: "I'm not an ordinary adventurer. ”
David was stunned for a moment, then smiled again, "That's right, but you can listen to the content of the mission first, and if you're really interested, it's not too late to take it." ”
Lin Yue motioned for him to continue.
The next words seemed to need to be solemn, David didn't say it immediately, but brewed his emotions for a while, and didn't say slowly until he breathed well: "How much do you know about the history of the rise of our human race, the marquis of the local tyrant?" ”
Lin Yue rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know." ”
That's the back of the game. Although there is a very detailed introduction to the things set by the scenery on the official website of "Realm OL", Lin Yue believes that most players, including him, should not go out of their way to browse these things, let alone memorize them.
David seemed to have known Lin Yue's answer for a long time, and his voice continued without pause: "Our human race has been the supreme ruler of the Adras continent for thousands of years, occupying the most fertile land in the continent, but do you know that our human race was a thousand times stronger than it is now thousands of years ago. Back then, both the East and West Continents were the territory of our human race, but unfortunately this glorious era was only interrupted for a few years......"
Lin Yue was not interested in listening to those long and smelly histories, and interrupted: "Old man, you can make it simpler, within 20 words. ”
David said in a solemn tone: "These words have a lot to do with the content of the mission, and I must make it clear to you." ”
Lin Yue raised his forehead and said, "Then you can continue." ”
David continued: "Our Terran Race has ruled the entire Adras Continent (including the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent) under the leadership of three ancestors in the past, the three ancestors are the Holy King, the Sword Emperor and the Holy Maiden, they are called the ancestors of the Terran race, and that era is called the 'Age of the Holy King' by later generations. Later, somehow, the three ancestors disappeared separately, and our human race lost its backbone and gradually declined, and then later, a disaster swept through the entire Edras continent, and all the creatures of the entire continent were swallowed up by darkness......"
"Wait, the Sword Emperor you just mentioned?" Lin Yue heard a familiar name from David's words.
"Brother Tuhao, do you know the Sword Emperor Loki?" A hint of surprise flashed in David's eyes, and he said half-loudly: "The task I will entrust you to do in a while happens to be related to Sword Emperor Loki. ”
It can't be such a coincidence, right?
As soon as this thought flashed through Lin Yue's mind, David continued: "I have already read the secret letter you brought to me last time, and the content of the secret letter happens to be related to our Terran ancestor. It is rumored that the Sword Emperor Loki once stored the weapon he used in a very secret place, and this weapon is said to be a legendary celestial holy relic, powerful enough to move mountains and reclaim the sea, and change the laws of time and space. And the secret letter mentioned that the demon clan has found the place where this holy relic is stored, and is organizing troops to go there at this time. ”
"So, do you want me to prevent the demons from getting this weapon left by the ancestor of the human race, or let me get it first?" Lin Yue was now basically certain that the holy relics in David's mouth should be the same thing as the Sword Emperor relics mentioned by Wu Ma.
It's just that the NPCs released for this quest are different.
David nodded, and sure enough, he affirmed Lin Yue's statement, "That holy relic was originally a thing of our human race, a relic left by the ancestors, I originally wanted to inform His Majesty the Emperor of this matter, hoping that he could order someone to snatch the relic back and enshrine it in the Taimiao." It's a pity that His Majesty, after learning the news of the existence of the relics, actually had the idea of taking it for himself. I know Your Majesty's ambition very well, he wants to use the power of the relics to rule the entire Adras Continent, if Your Majesty is the kind of Ming monarch who loves the country and the people, it would be fine, but he is a tyrant......"
"Something belongs to your Terran, isn't it normal for the emperor of your Terran to want to keep it for himself?" Lin Yue was puzzled.
"No, the relics must not fall into the hands of any individual, whether it is the demon clan or His Majesty the Emperor himself." David shook his head, and said in a solemn tone: "The power of the relic treasure is too great, it involves the level of law, once it falls into the hands of a certain conspirator, it will definitely set off a bloody storm, and when the time comes, it will not be as simple as a war breaking out between the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent, but an apocalyptic disaster." ”
