Chapter 289 Epitaph
In the inner room of the weapons store, everyone saw this ancient sword named "Epitaph".
Compared with some of the grotesque and alien-shaped swords nowadays, the shape of the epitaph is quite traditional.
The sword body has a regular shape, with edges on both sides, and the overall shape is streamlined. The tip of the sword gradually becomes sharper, and a small part of the tail end of the sword body is damaged.
The master craftsman installed the handle of the sword in the damaged area. In this way, not only will it not affect the use of the sword, but the undamaged side of the sword tail can also play a role similar to a hand guard. The arrangement is perfect. .
There is nothing special about the shape, but the material of the Epitaph Sword is very special.
The sword body was emerald green with a slightly transparent texture. Gordon had never seen such a brightly colored alloy, it was almost like emerald.
Not only that, the green sword surface is also covered with mysterious patterns and words of unknown meaning.
The starlight image that spreads out from the sword head is like a real star, shimmering.
As the surrounding light changes, the square characters are like candle flames, constantly jumping and changing, magical and weird.
What surprised everyone even more was that these patterns and words were neither cast nor engraved on the surface of the sword, but were sunk inside the sword body.
This kind of process is simply incomprehensible with today’s technology.
"Is this?! Oh! This is!" The old professor rushed to the epitaph sword placed on the weapon rack as if he was crazy.
His nose was stuck on the sword.
“This is writing from the early stage of ancient civilization! Different from the writing from the mature period of ancient civilization that is now mainstream research, this writing may even be passed down to the last super-ancient era!
What’s even more rare is that this text is complete, with no missing or damaged parts! This is simply the greatest archaeological discovery this year! "
The professor wiped his glasses hard and carefully observed the patterns and words on the sword bit by bit.
"Even I can only make out ' What do the characters "dragon", "disaster", "steel" and "fire", and this obviously symbolic star pattern mean? ! "
"Sorry, teacher, he is too excited. "Alva apologized to Gordon in a low voice, and then his eyes were attracted by the blue fire dragon armor on Gordon.
"Huh? ! It’s actually the material of the Blue Fire Dragon! ”
Gordon tugged at the corners of his mouth and tore off the young scribe who was stuck to his body.
I almost forgot that although Alva has no interest in ancient civilizations, he has always had an extraordinary enthusiasm for biology.
I guess I kept my head down and didn’t notice the material of my armor, but now my addiction to research has been aroused?
"Gordon! The text and pattern information on this sword are very important. I have a request!" The professor also ran to Gordon and looked up at him.
You don’t want me to donate the “most important archaeological discovery” to an academic institution, do you? Gordon muttered in his mind.
"I hope you can lend us this sword for a day or two. I will copy the patterns and words on it and keep them as important research materials and documents!
You can decide on the terms of remuneration as you like, I I will apply with the above! ”
Hearing this, Gordon waved his hand relaxedly, "It's a small matter to borrow it for two days, and there are no conditions required. Just don't damage it."
When he copied the ruins map of the Scriveners team, , the professor didn’t say anything, he was not so stingy.
The great craftsman added next to him, "Since I invited the professor, I will be the guarantor in the middle. Old guy, don't let your mind wander."
The professor glanced at her sideways, "This big sword itself is worthless to me. All I care about is the information on the sword. Can it still damage Gordon's weapon?"
The Great Craftsman "Hmph. " He said quietly and did not continue to argue with the professor.
He turned his head and introduced to Gordon with a smile: "I believe you can also see that the alloy material used in this epitaph sword is very special.
It has extremely hardness and heat resistance. High, with the current forging technology, it is impossible to smelt it and can only be Polish it to restore its original appearance as much as possible, and install a strong hilt at best."
The great craftsman walked to the weapon rack and gently stroked the simple blade. “High hardness brings extremely high sharpness and destructive power.
In this respect, it is similar to your Fire Dragon Sword, but even so, it is an excellent high-level sword.
What's more, this ancient sword contains a magical power. ”
“Magical power? "Gordon repeated this somewhat mysterious-sounding statement.
"In addition to the four common attribute energies of fire, water, ice, and thunder, there is also a 'dragon attribute' that is rarely known to anyone. . "
"I have heard about it, but I have never actually seen a weapon with dragon attributes. Gordon thought for a moment and looked at Hayata, "Does Mr. Yamos have a dragon attribute sword?" ”
Hayata shook her head.
Gordon pinched his chin, "Fire, water, ice and thunder are all things that exist in nature, but the attributes of dragons feel very abstract."
The great craftsman's mother-in-law put her hands behind her back, Explained: "Generally, only two weapons will have dragon attributes.
One is the epitaph, a heritage from ancient times. The ancient ancestors studied this energy very thoroughly, but it has been lost now.
The other is weapons made from some ancient dragon materials. It comes with dragon attribute energy, a typical example is Laoshan Dragon.”
The great craftsman's mother-in-law stopped there and did not go any further on the issue of "ancient dragon".
The professor added next to him: "In addition, there are some extreme cases, such as the Cang Fire Dragon and the Sakura Fire Dragon.
They themselves cannot use dragon attribute energy, but their materials are processed through After being stimulated in a special way, it can create weapons with a small amount of dragon attributes.
The reason for this has not yet been determined. Some scholars believe that this special energy is the real cause of its mutation and subspecies. "
Gordon was slightly stunned when he heard this. I always thought that the Cyan Fire Dragon was a sudden mutation similar to that of albinism. So there is still such a theory?
The great craftsman's mother-in-law nodded, "I also tend to support this view, mainly because the fire dragon's resistance to dragon attributes is very weak.
Theoretically, dragon attribute energy is also easier to invade their bodies, which may explain , why the appearance of Cang Fire Dragon and Sakura Fire Dragon is not an exception."
Why did it suddenly become an academic discussion?
Gordon, who was speechless, quickly brought the topic back, "So, the dragon attribute energy of this epitaph sword is relatively high?"
"Very high."
< br>
The great craftsman's mother-in-law said solemnly: "It can even be said that among the countless great swords I have seen, the dragon attribute energy intensity of Epitaph is undoubtedly the first."
This evaluation of the great craftsman, It was so high that Gordon was a little surprised.
"It's not surprising. After all, it is a work of that era. A considerable part of the weapons handed down from ancient times contain dragon-type energy."
The professor glanced at Gordon and said, "Ge Boy, do you know what the most common use of dragon-type weapons is?"
"What?"
"Deal with the ancient dragon."
(There is another chapter tonight
Ps. Don't fight with the Dragon Sealing Sword, the material is blinding.
And here I am By the way, I mentioned another possible cause of the emergence of Cang Yinghuo, which is the energy theory. This statement seems to be the same. It's very reasonable, and the most powerful evidence is the attributes of Cang Ying's fire weapons, which include fire and dragon. As for the age, I think it's more nonsense - if she really becomes Cang Ying after middle age, The official should explain it clearly like the red electric dragon and the green water dragon.
