Chapter 221 Game of Thrones on the Continent of Brennia
The light swept across Enid's body, and then disappeared.
The whole process happened quickly and suddenly, almost without any warning. By the time everyone reacted, the ray of light had disappeared.
Cecil's reaction was fast enough. When he noticed the vision, he pulled his sister and retreated a long distance, and then asked Enid if she felt anything unusual?
"I'm fine." Enid also checked herself up and down, and after feeling it carefully, she didn't notice anything wrong, but she still pulled out the pair of long swords stuck in her waist and held them in her hand. hands.
"Why don't we leave first?" Cecil heard a loud bang as soon as he said this.
The crowd followed the sound and found that the long corridor they had walked through when they came came, and a stone gate was dropped to seal the long corridor.
"..."
David looked at the stone gate, and then at the 'partners' around him, without any worry rising, and reminded Cecil at the same time: "That stone platform has changed."
Except for Cecil who cared about his sister, everyone else noticed the change in Shitai immediately.
The ordinary stone platform suddenly began to split from the center after emitting a ray of light, turning into a petal-by-petal gesture like a blooming flower, and then a sphere with strange patterns engraved on the surface came out from below. Slowly float into the air.
"What's that?" Steve carefully observed the pattern on it, which was similar to the ones seen at the door, and it should be the creation of the dark elves.
He was actually asking Cecil, hoping that this archaeologist from the kingdom of the dark elves can answer everyone's questions.
It's a pity that Cecil doesn't know what it is. He observes the ball curiously, trying to figure out what the lines on it symbolize.
"I will sleep here...until the descendants who are qualified to inherit the priesthood are found..."
To everyone's surprise, it was not Cecil, the dark elf archaeologist, nor Enid who was scanned by the unknown light, but David!
"Can you understand the text on it?" Tony has been scanning the ball not far away with his battle armor, but he got various warnings: the ball contains very powerful energy, which is similar to that used on Cecil's ship. Dark Energy is somewhat similar, but there are many differences.
As for the lines above, he has already transmitted the data to Jarvis, and Jarvis is still analyzing it.
As a result, the price has not been analyzed yet, and David has already said the above content.
"A talent!"
David also just realized that his language talent has been upgraded. He glanced at Laura beside him. He originally thought that this ability was just for him to better communicate with people from various worlds.
It never occurred to him that there would be such a change after the ability was upgraded: let alone the language of the dark elves, he didn't know the existence of such a thing at all.
As a result, he only glanced at it a few times, but he could easily understand the true meaning of the above expression.
Everyone didn't worry too much about David's special abilities. They were no longer surprised that David had all kinds of strange abilities.
What they care about is the information revealed in David's sentence: I will sleep here...Who is this 'I'?
The answer was soon revealed. The ball was suspended in mid-air and emitted bursts of brilliance, and a translucent figure appeared in front of everyone.
She has the same blue skin as Cecil and Enid, silver-white waist-length hair hanging behind her back, and the same style of high-defense armor as Enid's. A long staff inlaid with unknown crystals.
The translucent dark elf phantom opened his eyes, and his blue pupils were like a deep sea, as if they could swallow everything that was rushing towards him.
"Um?"
The translucent female dark elf glanced over all the people present, and noticed the composition of the people in the field.
"So many humans? And elves? This is really a strange combination."
"Oh? What's strange?"
The female dark elf spoke an unfamiliar language. Apart from the dark elf brothers and sisters present, only David could understand it.
But in the next second, Medivh also mastered this language.
"A human being who understands the language of the dark elves?" The translucent female dark elf did not continue chatting with David, but looked at Cecil and Enid, and finally looked at Enid a few times: "Wake me up!" It’s you! I’m really disappointed, I thought it would be a good descendant who came here…”
Before the female dark elf could finish her complaints, she was interrupted by Cecil: "Who are you?"
"Irreverent guy, no dark elves have taught you, should you be respectful when facing a high priest?"
"High Priest? What High Priest?"
"..."
This translucent dark elf woman should be a high priest, and may have had an unusual status among the dark elves before.
Cecil, who came from the Eternal Night Empire, didn't know about the High Priest. He was an expert in history and archaeology.
The information revealed in it suddenly became worth looking forward to.
"I think there may be a lot of good shows to watch next."
Tony's words attracted the approval of everyone, but also the dissatisfaction of the priestess.
"Humans, it's best not to anger me!" The priestess used the Common Language of Brennia this time. Although she had an even weirder accent than the siblings, at least everyone could understand it directly.
Tony didn't take the threat of the priestess seriously at all. Although the priestess hasn't said a few words since she appeared, these words have revealed enough information. There is a high probability that the priestess belongs to the history A member of a group completely submerged by the flood.
Even she herself may already be a dead person! Her current appearance seems to be no different from the so-called ghost.
At this time, the ghostly priestess seemed to realize something. She looked at the pair of dark elf brothers and sisters, and asked about their origins, and the situation of the dark elves in the world today?
"We are the dark elves of the Eternal Night Empire. I am an archaeologist. My name is Cecil. This is my sister Enid."
Following Cecil's brief introduction, the priestess knew that the Eternal Night Empire is currently the only dark elf kingdom, and at the same time there are a group of exiled dark elves living scattered in the Lost Land.
These contents did not make the priestess react, but when Cecil introduced the specific situation of the Eternal Night Empire, the priestess's displeasure could be seen as long as he was not blind.
"Eternal Night Empire... Oh, it turned out to be the country established by those traitors..."
"Traitor..."
Cecil was a little dissatisfied with the evaluation of the priestess, while David and the others were full of melon expressions, waiting for more revelations.
In order not to disturb the conversation of these dark elves, David resisted the urge to take out snacks from the space.
The priestess chatted with Cecil and Enid non-stop, and David translated appropriately.
Everyone gradually figured out the specific situation.
The entire Brennia continent was once ruled by dark elves, and the dark elves established an extremely powerful and huge country.
In the kingdom of the dark elves, the priests who serve the Evernight Goddess have a very high status. The Elfrida in front of her is a high-status and highly respected Evernight Goddess High Priest.
In addition, the priests of the Evernight Goddess are all women. At that time, the status of women in the dark elves was far higher than that of male dark elves.
Even in the eyes of some female dark elves, men are just tools for procreation and coolies.
Although with the gradual development of the empire, the number of dark elves holding this old idea is gradually decreasing, but the idea that women are superior to men has not changed fundamentally until the emergence of human beings.
"Wait...emergence of humans?"
Cecil heard a great message from Elfrida: Humans are not a race that originally existed on the continent of Brunnia? Did it come later?
"Is there anything strange about this? The dark elves were not originally a race that lived on the continent of Brennia."
"..."
Cecil was stunned by the two news in a row, and everyone eating melons at the side also felt that the trip was worthwhile, and they really ate a big melon.
Following Elfrida's introduction, everyone knew that the home of the dark elves was located in the east of the Brunnia continent, where there was a huge island where the dark elves originally lived.
But as the race grew larger, the island became increasingly barren and scarce resources could no longer allow the dark elves to continue living here.
Following several consecutive natural disasters, the entire island seemed to be on the verge of disappearing, and the dark elves had to migrate to the mainland of Brennia.
"We came here, defeated the half-orcs who originally ruled the Brennia continent, and established the era of the dark elves."
After nearly a thousand years of development, when the dark elves seemed to be entering a new era, humans appeared!
"Just like when we first came to the Brennia continent and defeated the half-orcs, humans posed a huge threat to our rule. The dark elves and humans started a war that lasted for countless years."
As for the result...
"The dark elves retreated to the west of the continent and established the Eternal Night Empire, and humans occupied the east of the continent?"
To Cecil's words, Elfrida just twitched the corner of her mouth, showing obvious disdain: "A group of traitors who have abandoned their people and faith are not worthy of being called dark elves!"
Without waiting for Cecil to ask, Elfrida gave another description: "The real dark elves never retreat, judging from your previous description, all my real clansmen have all died in the battle against humans." It's a war... and you are just descendants of a group of traitors... no wonder you get mixed up with humans."
