Chapter 138 The City of Silver

7days ago Fantasy Novels 14
City of Silver, Morning Hall.

Derrick stood in front of the steps, looking at his red eyes at his parents lying in two coffins.

A simple silver sword was inserted into the stone slab in front of him, and the sword was slightly shaken in the thunder that shook the house from time to time.

The Bergers in the coffin have not really died. They tried to open their eyes, sometimes weak and sometimes violently breathing, but in the eyes of some people, their lives are dying and dying.

Derrick, let's do it!An old man in a black robe and a hard cane looked at the boy with a nearly twisted face and said in a deep voice.

No, no, no!Derrick, with brown-haired hair, shook his head continuously, and took a step back every time he said a word. At the end, he even screamed like tearing his heart and cleaving his lungs.

Dong!

The old man poked his cane and said:

Do you want everyone in the city to be buried with your parents?

You should be very clear that we are the dark people abandoned by God and can only live in this place full of curses. All the dead will become terrifying evil spirits. No matter what method is used, it is difficult to reverse, except for people with the same bloodline to end their lives with their own hands!

Why?Why?Derick shook his head in confusion and despair and asked, "Why are our people in Silver City destined to kill their father and mother as soon as they were born...

The old man closed his eyes, as if he remembered what he had experienced in the past: ...This is our destiny, this is the curse we carry, this is the will of God...

Draw your sword, Derrick, this is respect for your parents.

After that, when you calm down, you can try to become a Divine Blood Warrior.

Berg in the coffin wanted to open his mouth, but after his chest was undulating for a few times, he could only make Jojo's sound.

Derrick stepped hard, returned to the side of the silver straight sword, and stretched out his right hand tremblingly.

The cold touch came into his brain, reminding him of the blood ice brought back by his father when he went out to hunt. Just a piece of palm-sized body could cool the room for several days.

His eyes flashed with the stern father who was teaching swordsmanship, the kind father who patted the dust on his back, the gentle mother who was sewing clothes, the brave mother who was blocking him when facing the mutant monster, and the scene of the family gathering together, sharing the food with the swaying candlelight...

Woo... He made a sound that was extremely suppressed and deep in his throat, and his right hand suddenly used force and drew his straight sword.

Dingdeng!

He buried his head, rushed forward, raised his straight sword and stabbed it heavily.

Ah!In a painful scream, blood splattered, splashed on Derrick's face and into his eyes.

His vision was bright red. He drew his straight sword and stabbed it into the coffin next to him.

The sharp metal penetrated the body, and Derik let go of his hand and stood up shakingly.

He didn't look at the situation inside the two coffins, and stumbled out of the mortal hall like he was chased by an evil spirit. His hands were tightly held, his teeth were bitten hard, and the blood red on his face was washed away with faint marks.

Alas... The old man who watched all this sighed.

There are stone pillars erected on the streets of the Silver City, and lanterns are hung above the stone pillars, and unburned candles are placed inside the lanterns.

There is no sun, no moon, no stars, only constant darkness and lightning that tear everything apart.

With the lightning, the people of Silver City traveled on the dim road, and the hours when the lightning subsided every day were considered to be the legendary real night. At this time, candles were needed to illuminate the city, dispel the darkness, and guard against monsters.

Derrick walked through the street with his eyes straight, not thinking about where he was going, but as he walked, he found that he had returned to his doorstep.

He took out the key, unbuttoned the padlock, and pushed the door. He saw everything familiar, but did not hear his mother's concern, nor did he be scolded by his father for running around. The room was empty and deserted.

Derrick clenched his teeth again, quickly returned to his room, and searched again for the crystal ball used by his father to sacrifice to the gods, which was said by his father.

He knelt down, faced the crystal ball, and prayed without any hope, and in pain:

Great God Ah, please turn your attention to this place you abandoned.

Great God Ah, please let us dark people get rid of the curse of fate.

I am willing to dedicate my life to you and please you with my blood.

……

Over and over again, just as he was completely desperate and trying to stand up, he saw a dark red light burst out from the pure crystal ball.

The light was like running water, and instantly drowned Derrick.

When he first regained his consciousness, he found himself standing in a towering palace supported by a huge stone pillar. In front of him was an ancient and mottled bronze table, and opposite the table was a seat covered with a thick gray fog.

In addition, the surroundings are empty, ethereal and empty, and the bottom is filled with invisible gray and white mist and unreal dark red light spots.

Derick had a flame called hope ignited in his heart. He looked at the figure standing high above the seat in front of him in a daze and confusion:

You, are you a god?

After asking, he suddenly remembered a sentence from the General Knowledge Book of Silver City and quickly lowered his head.

That sentence is:

Don't look directly at God!

Klein leaned back, held his hands crossed, and replied leisurely and easily in giant words:

I am not a god, I am just a fool who is interested in a long history.

He had already tapped his teeth on his left twice and found that the surface of the star spirit body deep in the etheric body of the boy in front of him was mottled in color and had no unity.

This shows that the other party is not an extraordinary person.

Fool…Derick chewed this word and was silent for a long time before he said hard:

Whether you are a god or a fool, my prayers will not change. I hope everyone in the city of Silver will get rid of the curse of fate, hope that the sky will appear, and the sun described in the books will appear, and if, if possible, I also hope that my parents will be resurrected.

Hello, I'm not a wishing machine... Klein let go of his hands and smiled:

Why should I help you?

Derrick was stunned for a moment and said for a long time:

I will give my soul and I will please you with my blood.

I have no interest in the blood and soul of mortals.Klein smiled and shook his head, watching the boy's emotions in front of him turn into a color of despair little by little.

Before the other party could speak again, he said leisurely:

But I can give you a chance.

I am a fool who loves equivalent exchange, you can get what you want from me, from others who are similar to you, and be aware that it must be of a fair value…

This can make you stronger, and maybe one day you can rely on yourself to get the City of Silver out of the curse and let the sky reappear the sun.

According to the other party’s description just now, he was sure that Silver City was in the so-called land of abandonment by God.

Of course, he is not 100% sure yet. After all, according to religious scriptures, the state of no sun in the sky still exists in the First Age and the Chaos Era. After all, no one knows whether there are strange places other than the land of God abandonment that the countries in the Northern Continent do not know.

Derick listened quietly, lowered his head silently, and after a while he replied:

I want to be ‘Sun’ and want to get the potion recipe from you for its initial sequence.

Sequence, potions, sun...the sequence paths mastered by the Eternal Sun Church...it seems to be in the same world...

The word sequence was born after the birth of the first blasphemy stone slab, which is the end of the dark age of the Second Age... In other words, if Silver City is really in the land of God's abandonment, it means that this area was separated from the North and South continents at least at the end of the Second Age...

Will this be related to the calamity in the Third Age?

In legend, the goddess of night, mother earth, and god of war were born, and together with the Lord of Storm, the eternal sun, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, the catastrophe of mankind... Klein got a lot of information from the other party's words.

However, he worked very hard to listen and organized language even harder, because Giant Language is not so skillful.

Fortunately, the ancient Foxac language was directly derived from the Giant Language, and in this regard, Klein was barely considered an expert, so he made rapid progress in mastering the Giant Language and was no longer afraid of showing fear.

Klein kept his posture unchanged and replied in a plain tone:

This transaction can be put in the next two days. It is best not to go out and try not to stay in the same room with others.

He didn't know what the time unit of Silver City was, and he didn't know how this was converted to the time of the Ruen Kingdom in the Northern Continent, so he had to generally express it as tomorrow. After the Tarot gathered, he would tell the other party that this time point in the future, and this...

As for the unit of Tian, ​​because it is found in the Giant's Word, Klein believes that even if Silver City is not used to count, the other party should understand what it means.

...Okay, obey your instructions.Derrick lowered his head and replied without objection.

Klein breathed a sigh of relief and tapped the table with his fingers:

Before sending you back, let us complete the equivalent exchange just now. I have given you a strong opportunity, and you have to pay the corresponding price.

I said I was a fool who loved long history, and the exchange I asked for was the history of the City of Silver, the ones you know.

Derrick thought for a while and replied in a low voice:

I will describe it truthfully.

From the time when the Lord who created everything, the omniscient and omnipotent God abandoned this land, the city of silver already existed, no, before that, it existed, but it was still called the Kingdom of silver.
