The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1598: King 1

Latest URL: The moment Leo heard the name, he immediately searched a large amount of information about the horn of victory from the database in his mind.

In the Old World, the name of the horn of victory appeared countless times. Almost every time the victor in a large-scale war wrote history, he would say that the moment the horn of victory sounded, the war was over and so on. The bugle that sounded the general offensive in that war will also be called the victory horn, and it is kept in some military museums or other military-related display cases for people to watch.

However, for those who really understand the story of the horn of victory, or the native-born residents of the Middle Kingdom, there is only one horn of victory, and that is the horn used in the last decisive battle before the establishment of the first kingdom in the world. It is said that After the establishment of the kingdom, the horn experienced an incredible transformation and became an artifact representing victory.

For the vast majority of people, the story about the horn of victory is just one of many legends fabricated by the people. Those who fabricate stories often exaggerate one thing without limit. It is obvious that a battle with only a few hundred people participated It became a battle with hundreds of thousands of people participating, and those legendary items in the story were also endowed with various magical titles and functions, and now the horn of victory is almost in a similar situation.

However, even so, there are still many people who believe in the legend of the horn of victory, and continue to send people to find the whereabouts of the horn of victory, including the war church. With the horn of victory, the **** of war and riots can make up for the missing part of the **** of chaos, and it is just around the corner to become a real god.

As for the natives of the Middle Kingdom, they also believe in the existence of the horn of victory, and there is a legend that has been passed down for a long time among the people. It is said that a great person will appear with a horn of victory, and once again bring the Middle Kingdom into unity and keep the flames of war away. This ravaged land.

There are more than a dozen versions of similar legends. When Leo read the materials, he also quickly browsed them. However, after browsing, the doubt in his heart was not curious about who the great man in the legend was, but I was puzzled by another matter, and asked Barbarisa directly: "Have you seen the horn of victory before? Why do you know this thing?"

This question stopped Barbarisa in an instant. He was stunned for a long time and didn't know how to answer. Finally, he said with a blank face: "I don't know why I know it. I have never seen it before." This thing, it’s just that after I saw this thing, I immediately thought of the horn of victory, and..." He paused, looked at Leo hesitantly, and said: "Besides I know what it is, I also know how to use it, as if the knowledge already exists in my memory, there is no need for special memory at all, it will come out naturally when I see it.”

If it was anyone else, after hearing Barbarisa's explanation, they would think that he was talking nonsense, but after hearing it, Leo believed his words, and he thought that these memories that suddenly emerged from Barbarisa's mind It is true, but these memories may not be stored in the brain, but may be stored in the blood, or in Barbarisa's soul.

"Can you use it now?" Leo asked curiously, "Can it really bring victory?"

"Of course not, but it can turn the tide of the battle at a critical moment." Barbarisa responded vaguely, shook his head again, and said, "I can't use it now, and I need some specific prerequisites and conditions to use it. Prepare."

After hearing this, Leo looked at the victory horn again, and believed in Barbarisa's words, because he could feel the extremely powerful power contained in the horn, but he couldn't feel any power from it like stagnant water. Activity, naturally it cannot be activated by some external force, as Barbarisa said, it needs specific conditions to be able to use it.

After putting the horn of victory aside, Leo took out some things from other brass boxes one after another, but compared with these things, the horn of victory should be considered normal.

One of them is a skull that looks like some kind of bird, but there are very fine patterns engraved on the skull. The patterns contain power not much weaker than the horn of victory, and these powers are completely active, and it feels as long as it is slightly stimulated It can be used in one click.

After seeing the bird's skull, Barbarisa immediately named it, saying, "This is the bird of death."

Then he said that as long as a specific method is used, the skull can be turned into a death bird. At that time, it only needs to let the death bird appear in the enemy's camp, and it can cause an incurable plague in the enemy camp. The victory horn is also an artifact that can influence the direction of war.

The only defect of this thing is that the power in the skull will not be replenished. Once it is exhausted, it needs to be replenished through a special sacrificial ceremony, and this sacrificial ceremony is only known to an ancient shaman faction born in the Middle Kingdom. , now this faction has disappeared in the Middle Kingdom, and it is unknown whether there is any inheritance of this faction in other places.

There is also a sickle specially used for harvesting wheat, but there is a tattered banner hanging on the sickle, which feels like it was hung with a piece of cloth. There are no mysterious runes or other things on the surface of the sickle. The material of the sickle It is also very common wood and pig iron, but Leo can feel a not very powerful but very dangerous force from the sickle, and the degree of danger should be able to cause him harm.

Barbarisa didn't recognize what it was, but he could tell from the shape of the sickle that it was a farming tool in the Middle Kingdom a long time ago. However, after so many years of improvement, the current harvesting sickle is no longer the same as before. The sickle is very different.

As for why a tattered flag was hung on the sickle, he speculated that it might have something to do with the army in the early Middle Kingdom, because at that time the army in this area was mainly tribal farmers, and the so-called weapons were also agricultural tools, using sickles as The flag of the army is also a very common thing, and why the scythe used as the flag contains such dangerous power, he is not clear.

The last two items taken from different brass boxes should be a set, one is a drumstick made randomly from tree branches, and the other is a war drum with a damaged drum head.

Compared with the other things, Leo didn't know the details of them. The moment the drumstick and the war drum were taken out, he already knew the origin of these things, and Barbarisa also said it out loud. The name of the thing, but the name has nothing to do with the origin of the thing.

The Berserker War Drum is a well-known name for this set of things. It is not wrong to say that it is widely known, because almost all the historical records of large-scale wars in the Old Continent more than two hundred years ago will have content related to this set of war drums, and even more What's interesting is that the users of this set of war drums are often the losers of the war, but the winners of the war are proud of getting this set of war drums.

As the name suggests, the role of this set of war drums is to sound well, so that the surrounding soldiers can fall into a kind of berserker who forgets life, death and pain in a short time, and exerts physical strength beyond normal, and their rationality will also turn into berserkers. At that moment, it completely disappeared, and it would not recover until it was exhausted and died in battle.

Therefore, users of this set of war drums generally use them when they are in a situation where they must die. The purpose of using them is not to win, but to cause more damage to the enemy before death, and die together with the enemy.

There is no doubt that the items stored in these brass boxes are all supernatural items related to war. As for whether there are those supernatural items among the supernatural items that the senior clergy of the church said can make demigods go one step further and become real gods? It's unknown, at least Leo couldn't feel the energy powerful enough to change the essence of a high-level life form.

However, after Barbarisa saw the five war-related items, the expression on his face became extremely serious, and he fell into deep thought, as if he had thought of something important.

Leo did not disturb Barbarisa's thinking, but stood quietly aside, waiting for him to recover.

After a while, Barbarisa got out of the contemplative state, looked at Leo, and said in a very heavy tone: "I know why they were sealed together?"

"Why?" Leo asked cooperatively.

Barbarisa's voice became extraordinarily deep, and said: "They may be the legendary relics of the Unified King."

Although his tone was emphasizing the importance of this sentence, Leo didn't know anything about the so-called unification king's sacred object at all, so he didn't show any abnormality on his face.

Barbarisa felt a little embarrassed that this expression was shown to a blind man, and he couldn't help asking: "Don't you know what is the sacred object of the Unified King?"

Leo shook his head. Although he also had some information related to the Unified King in his memory, those information must be different from the Unified King that Barbarisa said, because those information came from the world of Velen.

Seeing Leo shaking his head, Barbarisa couldn't help curling his lips, and then honestly told what he said about the King of Unification and the sacred objects of the King of Unification.

In fact, the so-called Unification King and the relics of the Unification King are all folk legends in the Middle Kingdom, but this legend is very secretive, and it is basically spread by the natives.

The Middle Kingdom area is in a state of war all the year round. The lord kingdom here has been attacking all the year round, and the people at the bottom are miserable. Therefore, there has been a legend about the King of Unification a long time ago among the people at the bottom. In this legend, the Middle Kingdom area will be A real king appears, and this king will carry several holy relics, start a unification war, and finally complete the unification of the Middle Kingdom, and establish an eternal kingdom where there will be no more wars and eternal peace.

According to the legend, the relics of the King of Unification are different, but most people agree with the relics related to war, because according to the legend, the relics of the King of Reunification were not launched until they got the relics.

"You want to become the unified king?" Leo asked after listening to Barbarisa's words.

Barbarisa looked at the extraordinary items related to the war, fell silent for a moment, and said, "A little bit."

"Don't you think that you can unify the Middle Kingdom with these things?" Leo smiled and said, "You should know better than me why the Middle Kingdom has been in war all year round, and The kingdoms and lords here don’t have much to do with each other, mainly because the church doesn’t want to complete the unification here, let alone the lords and kings here live in peace.” He paused and said, “However, the unified king is yours. If so, it’s not impossible. Don’t forget that because of the appearance of you, the Lord Protector and the saint, the number of wars in the Middle Kingdom has dropped sharply every year. Basically, it has entered a period of peace, so it is not impossible for you to become the unified king. "

"Forget it, it's impossible for me." Barbarisa shook his head and said, "If it was possible, I'm afraid it has been realized long ago, and it won't be just the protector of a kingdom like it is now." Talking , he seemed unwilling to continue this topic, so he changed the subject and said, "I can give you a suggestion regarding the investigation of my bloodline and father's family."

"Tell me." Leo motioned.

"Actually, this suggestion was also what I thought of after seeing these items just now." Barbarisa pointed to the so-called relics of the original god, and said: "There are obvious green emerald areas on these items." The style of the item, and the green emerald area is said to be the place where the God of Beginning gave the believers divine revelation for the first time~lightnovelpub.net~ and it is said that the God of Beginning left a bloodline there.”

"Have you left a bloodline?" Leo looked at Barbarisa and asked, "Are you a green emerald?"

"Of course not. I'm from Lorothir, not those savages like Green Jade." Barbarisa quickly denied it, and when he mentioned Green Jade, he also had a clear look of contempt on his face.

It is no wonder that he has such an expression. In the Middle Kingdom, due to the perennial conquests, many cities and regions are enemies of each other. Among them, the mutual hatred in several places is stronger. They can be called deadly enemies. When mentioning each other, the first thought that came to mind was to kill each other, and Lorothir and Green Jade just happened to be such a place where they were mortal enemies.

These two places are located in the northern mountainous area. Rollo Hill is a city built on a high mountain, mainly for mining, while Green Emerald is a plain under the mountain, mainly for growing a kind of high-yielding green rice. This is also the entire Middle Kingdom region. An important place for food production, as for why these two places are enemies to each other, no one knows. The only thing that is certain is that the enmity between them cannot be solved, not even Barbarisa, a saint recognized by the church There is no way to solve it, of course, it is more likely that he himself does not want to solve it.
