Over the city of Huntington, a large cloud of dark clouds blocked the sky without warning. The surging dark clouds made the city of Huntington in the afternoon seem to have suddenly entered night. Violent thunder jumped in the clouds, and the ring warlocks living here all felt some kind of extremely deep power erupting around the city, which in turn aroused the dark clouds that covered the sky.
Mr. Armand Bernhardt also looked worriedly at the suddenly discolored sky from the window of the White King Club. He didn't understand why this happened, he just felt that it might have something to do with Shad.
People in this world cannot understand how wonderful scenery foreigners have seen in their hometown. It is not only the huge knowledge in the systematic education in another world, nor the information transmitted in the convenient knowledge exchange system, but also the illusion and omnipresence formed by the interweaving of countless imaginations, which is everything that foreigners can never forget .
That is a deeper and stronger power than the system built by knowledge and wisdom.
The sky over the Lake of Cherubim was also covered by dark clouds for no reason. The sky over Xinhu Lake, the island in the center of the lake, became pitch black, and the angel with wings on its back resonated with the golden wheel ring behind it.
But the most dazzling thing here is not them, but the dark golden light that illuminates the entire water surface.
The divine afterglow on the surface of Xia De's skin was fully revealed, and in the strong wind, the golden light spots were dragged behind him. In the dense runes, the water bow in his hand completely turned into gold, and the arrow turned into a dark golden light mark, and it endured an increasingly powerful force.
"Is this your knowledge, or your wisdom?"
The angel in the air did not speak, and the voice echoed throughout the lake area.
Xia De gritted his teeth to control the bow and arrow in his hand. This power was not something he could easily control. The arrow full of power was far heavier than he thought. His own knowledge and wisdom are even more terrifying than he thought:
"It is knowledge and wisdom."
A sound came out from between his teeth. The crazily surging runes made the bow and arrow in his hands extremely heavy. Xia De, who was still drawing the bow, really felt that he was about to lose control of the direction, and the arrow was shaking up and down crazily.
[Think about your own wisdom. 】
"She" reminded softly.
Memories of the two lives come to my mind. Looking at the lights of thousands of houses at night in my hometown, watching the gas lamps shining one by one on the street of Silver Cross Avenue, the homeland that I can’t go back has a materialistic knowledge system, and the second hometown Tobesk has the steam and mystery of idealism.
"But not only knowledge and wisdom."
He raised the arrow and bow again, and with the sound, Shad's position completely turned into a golden sun falling in the dark night:
"That's also...technology, technology, learning, culture, morality, beliefs, and..."
He heard a soft laughter like a silver bell, the most familiar smile since he came to this world made the throbbing in the hearts of foreigners reach its peak.
The angel exuding a soft light quietly watched the extra silvery white in the dark golden light in the air.
A pair of holy silver translucent bare arms passed under Shad's left and right shoulders. That illusory arm held Xia De's hand, like a gentle woman hugged Xia De behind herself, and stabilized the bow and arrow with Xia De.
Covered by black clouds, the pure white angel and the stranger in the arms of the silver moon faced each other with their dark golden water bows. The strong wind dragged the lake's pure white, dark gold, and silver moon light in the same direction at the same time. This scene was like the most gloomy oil painting in the magnificent church, describing the lost old mythology.
Xia De, who was holding his breath, was thinking about his own wisdom and knowledge in this light, and vaguely felt that he understood something:
"What kind of power is this?"
"She" asked softly in Xia De's ear, her voice was gentle and soothing.
"What kind of power is this?"
The angel asked from high above, with a sacred and solemn voice.
"This is the power of civilization!"
The mortal gave the answer on the surface of the water, with a serious and firm voice.
The brass wheel ring rotating behind it was once again the same as when the "gate of death" was pushed open for the first time, as if the paint had peeled off, and the golden light shone in the cracks in the metal. The dense runes that emerge from the arrow surge toward the ring. The most profound memories of outsiders, the feeling and knowledge of civilization, transform wisdom into the power of [Airken Aura Knowledge Arrow], and the power of the arrow feeds back the power that brings civilization. of mortals.
Xia De originally pursued the "dragon" to obtain the last rune of the four rings' sublimation language, but at this moment he finally understood that the power he should really seek, his strongest power is civilization.
[Knowledge is power, and the light of civilization illuminates you. May the world bless you, Outlander, and I am with you. 】
[Relic - Aikenola's Arrow of Knowledge, giving you a new power. 】
The rapidly spinning life ring resonates with the sage-level relic, but whether it is a relic or a life ring, the power at this moment comes from a traveler in a foreign land. Civilization casts power, Xia De has not really touched civilization, but he has at least touched power.
[Outlander, you have engraved the Black Iron Whispering Rune-Power. 】
The language of sublimation of the lower fourth ring is completed, but the fourth ring lacks miracles and enlightenment, and Xia De will embark on the road of the middle ring.
Black clouds pressed down on the lake of cherubim. In the sky in the middle of the lake, a holy white angel opened his arms. On the surface of the lake, a bright dark golden light focused on the angel's chest.
The strongest power condensed and touched by the knowledge and wisdom brought by the relics in his hands, not only brought Xia De the third spirit rune of the fourth ring, but also made him think of more things.
The story of [Water of Wisdom] is recorded on the stone slabs on top of the mountains. In the trial of God, the trial of angels, and the trial of the chosen one, he set foot on different islands in the center of the lake to experience the test of wisdom.
That tiny touch was like a drop of water falling into my heart. After "whispering", Xia De unexpectedly grasped "enlightenment" in a trance, which represented the enlightenment of his wisdom.
Some vague phantoms flashed in the steam fog behind Shad, but they were somewhat like phantoms in the mist. Even though [Aikenora's Arrow of Knowledge] hadn't been released yet, the beating dark golden light almost approached the chest of the angel in the air.
"Yes, that's the story."
Xia De thought silently in his heart.
"Yes, this is wisdom and knowledge."
He looked at the silver arms holding his hands.
Xia Dehu suddenly understood that if he could really shoot this arrow at the Lake of Cherubim to defeat the goddess in the lake, then the mythos of the four rings might be born.
He closed his eyes, trying to let go of the bow-drawing hand. But he was shocked again, because those silver-white warm and delicate hands actually held his hand to prevent him from shooting the arrow.
"Huh? Didn't you come to help me? How to stop... Oh, I forgot to tell you, shoot the arrow now."
"She" chuckled:
【OK. 】
But the arrow still didn't shoot out in the end, and at the same time as the voice of "her" fell in Xia De's ear, the solemn voice of the lady in white robe with wings on her back came from the air:
"Lord of the Recorder, you have won, and the third trial is complete."
The angel with white wings fell in front of Xia De defenselessly, and his feet touched the water surface, causing ripples in the lake water illuminated by the dark golden light.
She was nearby, facing the ultimate arrow that was about to be released from Xia De's hand.
Under the dark clouds, Xia De was suffocated at this time:
"Hmm... Can I shoot this arrow and admit defeat? I promise to shoot one arrow, and it will be over after shooting this arrow."
He asked sincerely, and the white-robed lady looked at the arrow in his hand, which was still full of bows, and shook her head regretfully:
"This arrow, as long as I maintain the same level of strength as yours, I have no chance of following it, and I can't even avoid it. You found the best opportunity to attack and used the most suitable method. Although your swordsmanship is not Top-notch, but enough to rival me; although your spells and thaumaturgy are not extraordinary enough, they have already touched the threshold of a master; although your weapons are not sharp enough, you know how to use them correctly.
Lover of the recorder, you won, you defeated me~www.mtlnovel.com~ This is a fair duel, and I recognize your victory. "
The goddess of the lake, who exudes soft white light all over her body, bowed her head slightly to admit defeat to Xia De.
Xia De looked at her very seriously, and then endured the feeling that a mouthful of blood was about to be spit out, but had to be held back in his throat, and abruptly let go of the bowstring and arrow.
As the light of the sage-level relic [Ikenora Knowledge Arrow] receded, the afterglow of divinity on Xia De's body surface disappeared, the dark clouds also dispersed, and the city of Huntington ushered in the afternoon sun again. All the ring warlocks in the city breathed a sigh of relief, the feeling that a catastrophe was imminent in the next moment disappeared, and everyone was very happy.
Of course, according to subsequent statistics, the fact that all within 50 miles of Huntington was covered by dark clouds made the church very unhappy.
Of course, Xia De, who failed to shoot that perfect arrow at this moment, was even more unhappy even though he had obtained the Whisper [Power] and completed the third trial.
"It's okay, it's okay, after this arrow, the distance between me and the fourth spirit rune of the fourth ring is thinner than a piece of paper. Continue to challenge these trials of wisdom, and the next spirit rune is not far away."
He comforted himself like this, and the life ring on his back gradually disappeared into the mist. But the feeling in his heart of wanting to shoot the arrow and face a strong enemy, still made him very uncomfortable, as if he was being gently scratched by Mia.
Xia De even thought that the feeling of being scratched was no longer being scratched by one little Mia, but being scratched by hundreds of little Mia together, and he couldn't fight back against any of the cats.
"You have completed the third trial, now I will tell you the content of the last trial."
