Chapter 674 Holy Sword

   "So, what do you want me to do?"

   Duanmu Huai stared at Aurelia and asked, who was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath.

   "Actually, our country has a holy sword."

   Well, I know this, in fact, that's what I came for.

  “It is said that when our country is in a desperate situation, there will be a brave man who will draw out the holy sword, crusade against the devil, and save the country.”

  Oh, this is the first time I've heard of this.

   "Actually, all the people with lofty ideals in Ruminas have tried it, but no one has been able to draw that sword."

real or fake?

   "So you mean to let me pull out that sword, and then attack the Demon King?"

   Duanmu Huai frowned.

"That's right, I hope you can go to Mount Luminas in the west, the holy sword is stuck on the altar on the top of the mountain, as long as you can pull out the holy sword, you can destroy the devil...at least that's what the legend says of."

   "...It's really troublesome, can't I just call it?"

"no."

  Aurelia shook her head.

   "In fact, that holy sword is also the key for the ancestors to seal the devil. If the holy sword cannot be found, the tomb of the devil will not be opened, and we will not be able to defeat the devil..."

   "Oh...huh?"

  Hearing this, Duanmuhuai nodded first, then was taken aback for a moment.

   "Wait, this demon king is still in the seal, and he can't do anything, isn't it his Four Heavenly Kings or something?"

   "Manipulating the ancient white dragon and the dragon group can only be done by the will of the devil. The effectiveness of the seal is weakening. We must draw out the holy sword as soon as possible, open the seal, and then seal it again."

   "Then we can make a second one, right?"

  Duanmuhuai yawned, he got a headache when he heard about the seal, isn't it obvious that there will be a sequel.

  Of course, in fact, there is no continuous operation, and the game is over directly.

  According to Alleria, hundreds of years ago, the ancestors of Luminas used the holy sword to seal the demon king in the extreme north, and then sealed the holy sword in Luminas Mountain, and told the descendants. As time goes by, the effectiveness of the seal will gradually weaken, and the demon king will be resurrected again, manipulating the monster army to launch an attack on Luminas, and at that time, it is necessary to find a chosen hero, pull out the holy sword, Defeat the demon king and seal him again.

As early as when the monster army attacked the Northland Fortress for the first time, Aurelia had already recruited warriors from all over the country, and she saw that there was not even a single one who drew a sword, but now Duanmu Huai appeared. From Aurelia's point of view, he might be the only one worthy of this holy sword.

   "Okay, I see, so when are we going?"

"Now."

  Aurelia stood up directly.

   "Time waits for no one. We must take advantage of the opportunity of the monster army to rest and immediately go to Mount Luminas and draw out the holy sword."

  You don't seem to have considered what to do if you can't pull it out.

  Duanmuhuai didn't object, and stood up silently. He wanted to see how Aurelia planned to go to that Luminas Mountain.

  Facts have proved that the Kingdom of Luminas still has some skills.

   "This is really interesting."

  Standing on the deck, looking at the snow-covered mountains below, Duanmu Huai chuckled. Luminas has no helicopters or special planes, but it's not that there are no flying things in the sky. The airship in front of me was specially called by Aurelia. Its shape looks like a sailing warship from the ancient naval battle period, but it looks like a big hot air balloon is placed on it.

  How this thing flies, Duanmu Huai neither cares nor cares, as long as it flies anyway.

   "So master, you are going to draw a sword?"

  Yao Wei approached curiously from behind, looked at Duanmu Huai and asked.

   "Do you want a different weapon?"

   "It's good to have a sword, of course, for me, a hammer is the most reliable."

  Duanmu Huai doesn't dislike using swords, but the problem is that with his size, ordinary swords can hardly meet Duanmu Huai's needs. The chain saw sword is very cool, but its power is almost weak, and the main one is cruel.

  That's why Duanmu Huai still prefers to use a warhammer in ordinary battles.

  The feeling that all monsters and monsters will die with a single hammer is really cool.

  To be honest, Duanmuhuai doubted how big the sword was, maybe he couldn’t hold it with one hand—it would be ridiculous if it was about the same size as a toy sword.

   But having said that, does Aurelia really want to destroy the Demon King? Or are you going to break the seal of the Demon King?

Recalling Aurelia's expression and appearance when she spoke just now, Duanmu Huai also thought about it. At that time, Her Royal Highness's expression was very calm. It was not the poker face, but the kind that seemed to worry about the country and the people. , at least it "looks" like that.

   Well, it seems.

  In fact, her eyes kept looking around. To put it bluntly, she seemed to be distracted while acting. As for what she was thinking deep in her heart, Duanmuhuai didn't understand—after all, he was not an illithid.

  The airship set off late at night, and it has already passed the night, so it can be said that it is indeed very urgent. Of course, considering the current situation of the Northland Fortress, Duanmuhuai is not incomprehensible. Both he and Aurelia have left the Northland Fortress. If the Northland Fortress is attacked again at this time, basically it will only be broken the way. Augustus and Yan Wei did not stay in the Northland Fortress, and most of the soldiers there are injured now, and...

   Speaking of which, what's the situation in Luminas's country?

Duanmuhuai touched his chin, because of the ghost portal he traveled through this time, Duanmuhuai didn't have time to figure out the situation in Luminas's country, but logically speaking, in this case, the domestic situation The supplies, food and soldiers should be delivered as soon as possible, but Aurelia didn't seem to have considered this issue at all, and most of the soldiers in the entire fortress were also depressed. Apart from the excitement after the initial victory, they now They all looked a little tired and lost.

  Hmm, it seems... Luminas is also in chaos.

   At this moment, the snowstorm gradually weakened, and the mountain peaks in front of me became clearer.

  The holy sword is close at hand.

Originally, Duanmuhuai thought that the holy sword was placed in the temple for safekeeping, but when he stepped off the airship, he saw a sword stuck in the middle of the square in front of him - and there were several people standing beside him. a guard.

   To put it bluntly, it looks extremely sloppy, and it looks like no one cares about it.

   "Isn't this the holy sword? You don't care?"

  Seeing this, Duanmuhuai couldn't help but complain.

   "Aren't you afraid that this sword will be stolen?"

   "This is a holy sword."

   Before Aurelia could answer, the black-haired maid replied directly.

"The holy power emanating from this sword is enough to disperse all monsters. It is impossible for any monsters to come here to steal the sword. Besides, if you want to steal the holy sword, don't you have to pull it out first? The owner of the holy sword is the owner of the holy sword, there is no need to steal it."

"makes sense."

  After listening to the black-haired maid's explanation, Duanmu Huai also nodded.

   This logic is quite smooth.

   "This is the sword."

While speaking, a group of people had already arrived at the center of the square, and the holy sword was inserted on the ground in the center of the square. From the outside, the holy sword was neither luxurious nor beautiful, it looked very ordinary, and it didn't even have a hilt Skull with blue flames for decoration.

  Well, how should I put it...it really doesn't match the name of this holy sword.

   "Just pull it out?"

Fortunately, there are no people here, and there is no need to have a general meeting, a chairman speaker, a guest speaker, a standing ovation, and finally the contestants enter the arena to take their oath and draw their swords. Duanmuhuai took a step forward and walked directly in front of the holy sword. reach out.

   "It seems that the master is quite careful."

Seeing this scene, Yan Wei whispered to Augis, and Augis just nodded slightly, and the black-haired maid next to her looked much better at the moment, no matter what, at least it seemed that Duanmuhuai was very fond of the saint of her country. There is still a certain awe to the sword.

In fact, Duanmuhuai didn't have any reverence for the holy sword, he was just afraid that it would fall down suddenly - Duanmuhuai remembered that he had watched a TV series in which the brave man was played by the whole village. The whole village tried their best and couldn't pull out the sword. As a result, the brave man just walked up the steps, and the sword fell down before he could put his hand on it.

  As for why it wasn't pulled out before, then...the reason is very clear.

  Duanmuhuai didn't want to be treated like a fool like that brave man, so he first patted and shook very carefully--well, it's very good, the insertion is very firm, and it really doesn't seem like it was put in casually.

  Then next, just look at mine!

  Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand and grabbed the hilt of the sword.

   Judging from the appearance of this sword, it should be regarded as a two-handed giant sword, but in fact, in the hands of Duanmu Huai, this thing looks like an ordinary long sword, and he can hold it with one hand.

  Then Duanmuhuai grabbed the hilt of the sword and lifted it upwards.

Um? Really can't lift it?

  What Duanmuhuai didn't expect was that when he mentioned it casually, the sword was really as stable as Mount Tai, and it didn't move. What kind of joke is this? With my own strength, this means that the utility poles buried in the concrete are all picked up by myself, okay?

   "Hey, it's interesting."

   Now Duanmuhuai finally paid attention, he moved his body again, grabbed the hilt of the sword with all his strength, and lifted it up again——!

   Well, still not working.

  This is interesting...

  Looking at the motionless holy sword in front of him, Duanmuhuai's face sank, then he clenched his fists again and let out a roar. Then he stepped forward suddenly, and saw that with Duanmuhuai's movement, even the floor of the square in front of him began to crack, and Duanmuhuai gripped the hilt of his sword again, and pulled it up forcefully!

   "———————!!"

  Looking at this scene, everyone was speechless for a while, and the black-haired maid also showed a disappointed expression.

   "Your Highness, as expected, he is not..."

  “………”

  Aurelia didn't speak, but lowered her brows and sighed, but at this moment...

   "Kacha - Kacha -"

  Suddenly, there was a clear and clear sound. Hearing this sound, everyone hurriedly looked, only to see the holy sword in Duanmuhuai's hand was slowly being raised.

   Is he going to pull out this holy sword?

   No!

  Looking at the raised ground in front of Duanmuhuai, everyone was shocked.

   What he wants to pull out is not the holy sword, but——

"rise--!!"

  The next moment, Duanmuhuai roared loudly, and lifted his hands up vigorously, and saw that with his movement, the whole ground suddenly cracked, and then Duanmuhuai clenched the hilt of the sword, and raised the holy sword high.

   "Okay, pulled it out!"

   “………… Is that pulled out?”

  Seeing this, the black-haired maid finally couldn't help complaining. The reason is very simple, that is, on top of Duanmuhuai's head, besides the holy sword, there is also a large piece of stone connected with the holy sword!

   This is not pulling out the holy sword at all, it is completely smashing the ground next to the holy sword and lifting it up!

   "How? Your Royal Highness."

  Duanmuhuai held high the holy sword whose body was still buried in the rubble, and looked at Aurelia.

   "That's it."

  “…………”

   Facing the scene in front of her, Aurelia at this moment——couldn't say a word.
