Chapter 1,768 The True Origin of the Horadric Cube
*************************************************** *************************************************** ****
"Actually, shouldn't you have investigated this kind of thing before you came here? You want me to waste more words, really." The necklace began to slowly narrate some tragic experiences... Of course, before that, it had He was teaching us a lesson in an arrogant tone.
She covered my mouth tightly with her little hands to prevent me from clashing with that guy again. Tia laughed and said
"Sorry, Nana, we didn't find any information about you. We just found the altar while looking for clues about the Horadric Cube."
"What's going on... Well, maybe there's no information left behind. That's right. This kind of thing... would be very troublesome if the Holy See discovered it."
"What's going on? What's your relationship with the Horadric Cube?" I broke away from Dia's little hand and asked loudly.
"The Horadric Cube?"
"This is it." I took out the children's shoes from the microwave and put them side by side with the other party.
"Oh, it turns out it was it. After such a long time, I almost forgot about it." The necklace seemed to remind me of something.
"Is there really a relationship between you two?" Everyone suddenly became energetic and felt that they had found the right direction.
"Of course, because it is the same part as the cube and the necklace." Amid our cheers, the other party paused and continued.
“It’s all made for me”
"Huh?" The gesture of raising my hands in cheers stiffened. I turned back mechanically and stared at the necklace.
"for you?"
"Well, that's right, for me."
"Who are you?" At this moment, even I had to brace myself to deal with it. The thing in the necklace didn't seem to be a simple artificial intelligence, and its origin seemed to be very serious.
But no matter how great the background is, can it be greater than a human saint? Can it be bigger than the Elf Queen? They are all my partners. Thinking of this, I feel confident
I completely forgot. It seems that he is also an elder of the alliance, claiming to be the pseudo-savior of mankind. Sure enough, is this the fundamental reason for not having the aura of a master?
"Now that I have agreed, I will never break my promise, but before I declare my home, you must first let me know what time it is now, and how many years have I... stayed there?"
The three of them looked at each other, and finally Tia stood up. For her, it was the most suitable one.
"Nana, I can tell you, but before that, I have a few questions that I want to ask first."
"Answer carefully," the other party said in a cold manner, as he had always done.
"First of all, are you a living thing or an artificial creation?"
"Of course it is a living body. Even the elves cannot create souls when they are at their strongest. That is God's prerogative. Only a monkey with a lower IQ... hum"
"Do you want to find trouble?" I rolled up my sleeves and showed off my well-developed biceps to the other party.
"Be careful, I will hammer you into a discus with one fist."
"A monkey is a monkey, with well-developed limbs and a simple mind..."
"..."
"Okay, okay... you two, don't be upset anymore." Tia quickly whispered something in my ear, which probably meant to be patient and find out the identity of the other party first.
"The next question, Nana, since you are a living being, then...are you a member of our Horadric clan?"
This question made the necklace silent for a long time before hearing a soft "yes"
"Sure enough, it's just as I guessed, Nana is one of us." Tia breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily.
"Wait a minute, I also have a question. You guy, you just accidentally said that you were a princess or something. If you are from the Horadric clan, doesn't that mean... you are the Horadric princess?"
"No way? Monkey"
"I didn't even say no...wait, I'm not a monkey bastard!" I flipped up the table angrily.
Compared to my anger, others were surprised and speechless
"Na...Nana...Nana is the princess of the Horadric tribe?" Dia was probably the most shocked, because she herself was
"There is no need to deceive you"
"It's Princess Horadric. She was also an old princess from tens of thousands of years ago." I couldn't help but interject.
Not getting the expected rebuttal, Necklace fell silent. After a long time, he asked in a trembling tone.
"You said... you mean... tens of thousands of years have passed?"
"It depends on when it started," Tia said with a wry smile.
"Counting from the time when the Horadric Cube was made"
"That is indeed...I don't know the specific time, but it was probably about 30,000 years ago."
The necklace fell silent again, seeming a little lost.
"What happened to the Horadric clan, why... I'm sorry, my thoughts are a little confused. Can you tell me what happened in these years?"
"No problem, but it's been such a long time, and it doesn't take a while to say it. I'll just say it briefly first."
"Well, let's start with the important things. The range is confirmed to be within the Horadric clan," Necklace said solemnly.
Judging from the fact that it cares so much about Horadric, it seems that the identity of this princess may indeed be true.
"Let's start with the creation of the Horadric Cube..."
Next, there is a eloquent narrative from Dia. The content is nothing more than the familiar Horadric clan's rise from glory to decline, then the invasion of hell, and then being trapped for thousands of years, etc.
"I didn't expect...that such a long time would actually pass, and I didn't expect...that the Horadric clan would turn into this nirvana..."
The other party is having a hard time digesting this painful history that is difficult to accept, and has turned a deaf ear to our existence.
"Fanfan, come here~~~" Tia motioned to me with her eyes. She was still distracted by the necklace. Under Tia's leadership, our group left the room and entered the next room.
There was Grand Elder Sakron inside, as well as several Horadric old men whose names I couldn’t name.
"Grandpa Sakron, why are you here too?" I asked in surprise without turning around for a moment.
"How could we just ignore this matter and let you guys do whatever you want?" The other party glared at me, seeming to still be upset that I snatched away her precious granddaughter.
"First of all, the identity of the other party cannot be confirmed yet. What if everything you experienced at the altar was a trap, and the other party is actually the enemy sealed by our ancestors. If you bring it back rashly, wouldn't Horadric City suffer? ?”
"That's true..." I scratched my head and admitted my mistake.
It's indeed a bit hasty. Although judging from my intuition, I want to believe that the guy in the necklace is indeed not lying. If I want to act, the acting will be too realistic.
But from the perspective of Sakron and others, such precautions are correct and necessary. These experienced old people do not rely on intuition to make judgments, but based on facts.
"Besides, even if the other party didn't lie, it's still a big deal. A necklace with a soul lodged in it, sealed on the altar for tens of thousands of years, and related to the Horadric Cube, isn't it enough to alarm us?" He twitched his beard and said The expression of a cloned face means
"Then what should we do now?" I listened humbly.
Just as Thakron was about to say something, he heard an old Horadric speak out
"The Thakron information was found"
"Come and take a look." A group of people took a piece of information and read it over
Slowly exhaling a breath, Thakron said to us: "It seems that the other party did not lie. In that era, there was indeed a Horadric princess named Nana... But we can't completely relax our vigilance now. You can go back first." "
Are you planning to continue eavesdropping? I secretly felt sad and returned to the original room together.
"How are you, haven't you accepted the reality yet?" I realized that the other party might have lived alone in that altar for tens of thousands of years. This kind of encounter similar to that of a little ghost made my tone soften a lot.
"Confirm, all the information has been summarized and sorted out." Another cold artificial intelligence voice came from inside the necklace.
"I said Ai Jingran's identity has been exposed. Can you please stop talking in such a strange way?" I pressed my temples with a headache.
"Due to habit," the other party replied coldly and mechanically, and then changed to a flesh-and-blood tone.
"Besides, there is no need to speak human language when communicating with monkeys, huh."
I:"……"
As expected, I can't be gentle with this guy at all.
"Although asking this may make you think of the past and make you sad, Nana, we also have compelling reasons, so can you tell us what happened to you? Why are you like this?"
"I don't think you know anything about it. You've already confirmed it." There seemed to be a sharp gaze coming out of the necklace, making us shrink back in guilt.
It is worthy of being called Tianhe No. 1. It is estimated that even if it did not notice what we did just now, we can roughly guess it. We cannot believe its identity and what it says so easily. We must confirm it in advance.
"Forget it, no matter what, you are also the benefactors who brought me out of the altar..." He sighed slightly, and the tone of the necklace softened.
"In the tens of thousands of years you mentioned, I was the Horadric Princess of that era, the princess of the Horadric tribe in its prosperous period. My name... I have forgotten the name, so just call me that."
Obviously she was very concerned about this name, maybe because she felt a little shy, so she chose not to mention it, and then she continued to talk about her experience.
This Princess Horadric, who has forgotten her full name, was born in the most prosperous Horadric era, and she is a princess of the noble family. At that time, the status of this princess was not as valuable as Diya's now. Even if she is called Magical princess is not an exaggeration
With such a noble status, she is the only princess of the entire Horadric tribe, so she is naturally favored by all. Moreover, even among the talented Horadric tribe, she is extremely talented.
However, maybe even God is jealous of her identity and talent, and thus brings disaster. Her Royal Highness the Princess suffers from a strange disease that makes all the magicians change their minds and is called a magic disease. It is an extremely low-level disease that only mages can suffer from. The magic and spiritual power in the body of mages who suffer from this strange disease will continue to burn, resulting in many people who are too weak to cast even a single spell.
Her Royal Highness the Princess suffered from this kind of strange disease and was not favored by the protagonist's aura. She died of the disease at the age of sixteen, a long way from the coming of age ceremony.
However, as the jewel in the eye of the Horadric tribe at that time, the Horadric people were full of love for this beautiful and poor princess. They were in their most prosperous period, their self-confidence was inflated, and they felt that nothing could be done by their own tribe. Even if you can't do something, it's okay to have this kind of mentality.
In short, some people could not accept that Her Royal Highness the Princess would leave like this, so they began to practice the secret technique of reincarnation, which is listed as the most taboo in the entire Dark Continent.
The secret technique of reincarnation is incomplete information leaked from the elves. Just like how everyone in the original world regards human cloning technology as a tiger, this secret technique has been even more strongly prohibited in the Dark Continent. The Holy See has ordered that all those who study it must Mystics are to be executed
Although the Horadric tribe was powerful at that time, they did not dare to risk the disapproval of the world and conduct public research.
The secret treasure of alchemy, the Horadric Cube, was put on the table as a covering cloth.
