Scene 21: The Firmament III
(This is the third update! Written in the front, if you haven’t noticed the previous two updates, please go to the front!)
"Owena?"
Even Brando racked his brains and couldn't find out the origin of the name from his memory, let alone other people. Only Roman asked tremblingly: "You, why are you pretending to be me!?"
Owena glanced at Roman, slightly taken aback: "That's how it is."
"Huh? What do you mean?" The business lady was stunned.
The Lightning Girl turned her head, frowned and looked at Brando on the ground: "Your authority seems to be inherited from the Truth Society, but you obviously have higher authority, inexplicably... Let me see, it's strange, you have The breath of Gaia's will."
She turned her head and looked around everyone, but only stopped at William. The archmage of the Silver Alliance frowned and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something. However, Owena's eyes lit up slightly when she saw Freya.
"The descendants of the Goddess of War's Guards, they didn't expect this line of blood to survive in the world." She said with a little admiration.
Of course Brando heard the Lightning Girl's words, but he completely felt like he was listening to a bible. He had never heard any of the terms in Aowena's mouth, even if it was the experience in the game in the past, he didn't have a single word about it.
He frowned: "Ma'am, who are you? You are a heroic spirit, whose will do you represent?"
"Me?" The lightning girl took a step forward, and she raised her chin: "Humans, according to your records, you should call me the Azure Knight."
The Azure Knight.
These five words echoed in Brando's mind. He opened his mouth, but for a while he seemed to lose his ability to speak.
The others were probably no better than him, or worse. Metisa almost let the spear in her hand fall to the ground, and Makaro and the others behind Her Royal Highness kept muttering to themselves: "This is impossible... This is impossible..."
in front of them. That's the one that shattered the sky. The Azure Knight who made the stars fall and brought the age of mortals.
If you want to ask what is the most famous heroic epic in the history of the Amber Sword, it must be the Poem of Cang. And if you want to ask which passage in Cangzhi's poem is the most widely circulated, it must be the legend of the Azure Knight.
That is the originator of all knight epics, and countless stories have been fabricated by later generations based on this legend. Almost all chivalry fantasies have a shadow of this legendary figure.
But she was a woman?
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little unacceptable for a while, only after Roman figured out that the other party was not pretending to be her, he asked curiously: "But why do you look exactly like me?"
"The time of history flows quietly like a long river. Among the billions of stars, there are always two that are so similar. This is just a coincidence." The Lightning Girl replied in a deep voice.
Why did Brando feel that the lady was talking nonsense, and he asked, "Master Knight, what do you mean by what you said before?"
Owena glanced at him, and replied: "What I said. You have heard it if you heard it. I didn't say it, and I won't tell you rashly. In this world, every secret has its price."
"What price will it cost?" Brando asked, frowning. In the game, players have been trying to solve a puzzle. That is, the ultimate path leading to the power of existence. But obviously no one has ever succeeded, but Brando vaguely feels that the term Owena mentioned before is likely to be related to the final door.
Because since the fall of Babel Fortress, ancient knowledge has been lost on the earth, and there is no record of the power of existence. Since then, no matter whether it is the people of gold or the people of silver, there is no one who really opened the door.
Even the aloof Dragon Clan stopped at the pinnacle of the golden body.
Brando looked at Owena seriously, but the female knight made of lightning shook her head: "You can't afford them, human beings, well, tell me, what is the purpose of your coming here?"
"Purpose?" Brando came back to his senses and remembered the purpose of their trip: "My lord, we accidentally discovered the Azure Spear you once used, and we hope to obtain its approval."
"So that's it." The Lightning Girl nodded, and she looked up at the entire hall: "This should be the ruins of the Barbad Hall, you probably haven't heard of this name. So for you, what kind of place is this?" , The outside world has arrived in that year?"
"Now this is the territory belonging to the Kingdom of Aruin, and it is the underground of Amperesel, a trading port, Sir Knight," Princess Griffin's voice came: "This is already the first era, three or six years. "
"Has the era of chaos come to an end?" The lightning girl muttered to herself, "Are there still gods and people on the earth?"
"God people?"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, what kind of term is this? Even for players, that is a background that only exists in legends.
Owena saw their expressions and understood what happened. But there was no sadness or joy on her face, she just replied: "I see, I understand."
She raised her head and replied: "You said that you want to get the approval of the Azure Spear, it's very simple, just defeat me."
beat you?
Brando was lucky not to be choked to death by his own saliva, but the other party was the legendary classical heroic existence that shattered the sky and brought a new era. Legend has it that the Azure Knight was a hero who lived in the era before the Babel Fortress was destroyed. She almost certainly possessed existential power, and even in that terrifying era, her power was at the peak level.
From this, we can know how terrifying the power of this lightning girl is.
Although I knew that it would not be easy to obtain the Azure Gun - after all, the Amber Sword is a game first, since it is a game, there can be no free lunch - but Brando did not expect this 'copy' The conditions are so simple yet harsh.
Just defeat the Heroic Spirit of the Azure Knight.
The question is is that possible?
According to the strength of the previous blow, Brando can roughly judge that even his full strength in the game, coupled with the help of other top players in the entire Grey Hughes Knights, may not be able to compete with the Lightning in front of him. Girls fight.
He couldn't help but wondered, and asked, "My lord, can I know. How much strength does your heroic spirit have when you were alive?"
Owena smiled slightly: "You are very smart. Humans know how to find out the opponent's strength first. But I am afraid that my answer will disappoint you. As long as I am still in this hall, my strength is equivalent to my prime." The power of time."
Everyone seemed to have been punched in the face.
Marcaro and the others couldn't help turning their eyes to the legendary mage from the Silver Alliance, but William couldn't help but smile bitterly, although his power was approaching the peak of the mortal world. But it's not enough to look at in front of the power of existence.
He shook his head, there was no chance of winning.
"This is too much." After being taken aback for a moment, Princess Griffin couldn't help frowning and replied: "My lord, how could someone be able to defeat you?"
"Little half-elf, since you can't defeat me, what right do you have to use my weapon?" The lightning girl replied with a slight smile.
Brando frowned, unlike everyone else, he immediately felt that there was absolutely a problem with this condition.
It is absolutely impossible for a game to set conditions that cannot be completed.
Her Royal Highness asked very well. Who can defeat the Azure Knight? Not to mention the people present, even in his era, which player dared to say that he could defeat the Azure Knight?
Or push back further. As long as you can't grasp the power of existence. There is no possibility of victory.
For a moment, he thought of the tricks inside.
He raised his head, only to see a pair of eyes looking at him. It was a pair of black eyes with a hint of light purple luster. Under the slender eyebrows, together with the beautiful black hair, set off the heroic face.
The female knight stared at him, the meaning in her eyes was already obvious.
But she still reminded with mouth shape: "Word trap."
Brando reacted all of a sudden, and he didn't have time to think about why Nimesis suddenly thought of this question. But he had already raised his head and asked Owena: "Master Knight, are you saying that as long as you are in this hall, your strength is equal to your strength in your prime?"
The Lightning Girl froze for a moment and looked at him.
Brando already knew it in his heart: "Master Knight, as long as I defeat you, can I get the approval of the Azure Spear?"
"Yes." Owena nodded.
"That's good." Brando suddenly jumped back and shouted to Charles on the side: "Charle, Dragon Strike!"
The young wizard attendant had already understood the moment his lord opened his mouth. Since Owena is unrivaled in this hall, let's change the battlefield. He stretched out his hand to the ground, and the halo of law and magic gathered in his palm in an instant, dazzling——
"What do you want to do!"
Owena's eyebrows made of lightning raised slightly, and then a wave of anger flooded her face: "I hate opportunistic guys the most!"
As soon as the voice fell, her figure completely disappeared from everyone's sight, and then Roman's exclamation came: "Brando, behind you!"
Brando felt cold, because most people would be the first to attack Charles in order to cancel the spell in his hand. But Owena obviously saw his relationship with Shire, in other words, she knew he was a Planeswalker.
Brando felt the cold in his vest, and he didn't even have any room to resist. A cold hand—as if it wasn't made of lightning at all—had grabbed his back.
"Order him to stop!" The lightning girl's voice was frighteningly cold.
"No, Charles, throw the spell out! There are no rules here, she can't hurt anyone!" Brando shouted immediately.
Owena was slightly taken aback: "...how do you know?"
Brando smiled triumphantly: "Because you stabbed me just now, did you forget?"
"Have you noticed?" The lightning girl's almost platinum eyes showed an incredible look: "You are still a little clever, but you think this will make me helpless?"
When Brando saw a smug sneer on Owena's face, he knew something was wrong. He followed her gaze, and in that direction, the beam of light from the Dragon Strike technique in Charles' hand had come out and hit the ground. Fragmented, about to collapse.
But at this time, Owena said coldly: "The power of fate, history goes against the current."
Just eight words.
Then a miracle happened.
