Pulin's eyes shone brightly, and he said happily: "That's right, the Pope's real power is profound! Even when resisting the bloody sun, he can still get some guidance from the gods. If it weren't for the Pope and the priests of the Holy See, he would have been there long ago. The catastrophe had already occurred five years ago. However, there is not much time left. In the millennium of the sacred calendar, the catastrophe will be unstoppable. I have spent thirty years of my life, and the full text of the guidance I have received is: kindness and kindness. The combination of evil, the unity of light and darkness, guided by the blood of the phoenix, has overcome many obstacles, and is tied by the blood of the dragon. This contains the words that the Pope said, and it should be correct. You are the savior who is guided by the gods.”
A’Dai found that Xuan Yue’s little hands were full of cold sweat, savior? This term was so unfamiliar to him that he couldn't help but blurt out: "What is a savior?"
Prin's prophet barely suppressed his inner excitement and explained: "A savior is someone who is guided by the gods and relieves the world of human beings." The signs of disaster are coming. The Pope and the priests rely on their pure divine power to push back the disaster. It is inevitable. However, God has not abandoned us. He still cares about us. Under his guidance, you have emerged as a savior who can turn the tide. God will guide you to save the world."
Xuan Yue frowned and said: "Prophet Pulin, what reasons do you have to prove that we are the savior?"
Pulin smiled slightly and said: "Of course I have good reasons, and I will explain them to you. , tell me first, what are your names?"
Xuan Yue said: "His name is Duan, my name is Xuan Yue, Prophet Pulin, please tell us quickly."
Pulin nodded and said: "The combination of good and evil describes Ah-Dai. Ah-Dai is a kind child, but he has the power of evil."
Xuan Yue was shocked, Looking at Ah-Dai, Ah-Dai subconsciously touched the Pluto Sword on his chest, shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no, I have never done anything bad!"
Pulin smiled slightly and said: "Don't get excited. , the evil I am talking about is the evil of things, and kindness is your own quality. Do you know why I am sure that you are a combination of kindness and evil? It's not just because of your performance in saving Xuan Yue. . ”I don’t know where he conjured a crystal ball. Pulin recited a few spells silently, and a faint light emitted from the crystal ball. A blurry image appeared inside, and the image gradually became clearer. It was exactly the scene when Ah-Dai and others were preparing to enter the Tiru Temple. There was nothing special about the first few people entering the temple, but when Xuan Yue entered the temple, her image turned into a faint red, and a red energy in the form of a phoenix surrounded her. When Ah-Dai walked to the temple gate, his whole body emitted a faint gray light. When the crystal ball dimmed, the image disappeared. Putting away the crystal ball, Pulin said: "This is your memory when you entered the temple, and the inquiry defense magic circle I arranged was actually broken by Dumb. Originally, even people several times more powerful than you can't destroy it. My magic circle. However, the evil thing in you can be understood. And your various behaviors after entering the temple tell me that your heart is so kind. Therefore, I am even more sure. You are the real savior. The phrase "the combination of good and evil" describes you, and the unity of light and darkness illustrates the contrast between Xuan Yue and you. It is the energy of darkness, and Xuan Yue, who was born in the Holy Holy See, is a representative of light. I did not think that the savior would be two people until I found out that Xuan Yue carries the blood of the Holy Holy See's treasure, the Phoenix. Thoughts. Using the blood of the phoenix as the guide, isn't it the Xuan Yue? And using the blood of the dragon as the knot, I will tell you later. As for the eternal life of love, only you can understand it in the future. .”
Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue looked at each other, neither of them expected that things would turn out like this. Xuan Yue said: "Prophet Pulin, did you call us here just to confirm the identity of our savior? I don't want to be a savior. If you, the people with advanced cultivation, can't do something, I How can you do it with Dumb? One thing I don’t understand is why you would spend thirty years of your life predicting the savior. For the sake of the mainland, it seems that even if disaster strikes, it may not be the matter. It will threaten your Puyan tribe!”
Pulin smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, I am not that great. All I care about is the life and death of our Puyan tribe. What I wanted to predict at the beginning was also the future of the Puyan tribe. However, Various omens indicate that if our Puyan tribe wants to develop and always occupy a place on the continent, we must survive this thousand-year catastrophe, and the savior is not only the savior of the entire continent, but also the savior of our Puyan tribe. The reason why I let you come here is to tell you the secrets of our Puyan tribe for thousands of years. I hope to help you become a true savior and get through the disaster as soon as possible. We, the Puyan tribe, have suffered enough. We can't watch him die!"
A'Dai said: "Prophet Pulin, I still don't understand what you mean. What do you want us to do for your Puyan tribe?"
Pu Lin said: "You can also say that, of course, I will not let you help in vain. You listen to me tell the whole story first, and then I will tell you what kind of help our Puyan tribe needs. Whether it is asking for Within the Federation, or in the entire continent, our Puyan tribe can be called one of the oldest ethnic groups. We are the earliest humans on the continent, and our history can be traced back to tens of thousands of years. Before. The three major empires and the Solo Federation were formed thousands of years ago after the first pope, the savior at that time, sealed the demon." Pulin walked to the wall of the grotto and pointed to a piece on the stone wall. A mural, said: "Look."
Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue looked along the part he pointed at. Under the light of the gem, which was not very strong, the colors on the mural already had many places. All peeled off, and all you can see are many people painted on it. They are wearing clothes made of wild beast furs, holding high the most primitive weapons, and seem to be running wildly in a certain direction. Among them is a burly man, The long brown hair on his head was spread loosely behind his back. He looked excited and raised the javelin in his hand as if he was shouting something. Pu Lin said: "This is the most complete ancient mural that our Puyan tribe has preserved so far. The group of savages in the painting are the ancestors of our Puyan tribe. And this burly man is the third generation of our Puyan tribe." I don’t know how long this mural has lasted, but it should not be less than 10,000 years ago. Our ancestors were still living the most primitive life at that time. From that time on, we in Puyan. The tribe is the race that loves nature the most."
Pulin took a few steps forward, pointed at the second large mural, and said: "This is probably what the previous mural will look like a thousand years later."
< br>
The second mural depicts a valley. On the stone walls of the mountains, there are caves one after another. Puyan tribesmen wearing commoners are constantly entering and exiting the rock walls. Pu Lin explained: "After thousands of years of development, our Puyan tribe has begun to have its own civilization. Although we still live a cave-dwelling life, the Puyan tribe at that time had already started farming." He did not do this Duo explained, and took a few steps forward, pointing to the third mural, which showed thousands of Puyan tribesmen, dressed in neat leather armor, holding long-handled battle axes, arranged in neat rows. The team looked murderous. Pulin said: "This is what the Puyan tribe looked like about five thousand years ago. At that time, our Puyan tribe had developed in the most powerful direction. Do you see some of these warriors? They look familiar. Yes, they are the original figures of the Tiru warriors in the temple. "
On the fourth mural, there is only one person, a muscular man. He was wearing a pair of ordinary cloth trousers, with his upper body bare, holding a long-handled battle ax high in both hands, as if he was roaring something loudly, and his whole body was emitting a dazzling yellow light. Pulin's eyes showed reverence, and he sighed: "The person on this mural is the greatest hero of our Puyan tribe, Tilu War God. It was he who led our Puyan tribe to its most glorious days. Now The Tiru Temple was built in memory of him. Under the leadership of the Tiru God of War, the boundaries of our Puyan tribe expanded exponentially. In thirty years, three-quarters of the continent was completely occupied by us. Occupied by the Puyan Tribe, the continent at that time could already be called the Puyan Continent. Our tribesmen scattered in various places intermarried with some local backward tribes, and only then did we have the various skinned humans on the continent. In addition to the Nansi people who have the same history as us, our Puyan tribe can be said to be the ancestors of the current human beings on the mainland. Oh, you may not know that the current Huasheng Empire is the descendant of the Nanci people at that time. People do not like to expand their territory as much as our Puyan tribe. They are a peace-loving race. Although they only occupy a small part of the mainland, they are respected by our tribe and can always live in peace. The Nansi people are smarter than us, at least, they still occupy nearly a quarter of the land on the mainland.”
When Pu Lin mentioned that the Puyan tribe ruled three-quarters of the mainland, his eyes showed pride and excitement, as if he himself had been there. Especially when looking at the Tiru War God in the mural, he is full of reverence and admiration. Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue had been deeply infected by his story. They listened quietly to Pulin's narration, completely immersed in the story from thousands of years ago.
Pulin walked to the fifth mural. This was the largest mural in the cave, occupying almost one-fifth of the stone wall of the cave. The appearance of the mural was very similar to that of the current Puyan tribe, with stone structures everywhere. In the house, every face of the Puyan people is filled with happy smiles. Everyone is busy doing their own thing, looking like a prosperous age. Pu Lin sighed and said: "The heyday of our Puyan tribe lasted for three thousand years. During those three thousand years, we completely became the masters of the continent. This was the scene at that time. There were people in almost every corner of the continent. The same tribe."
As he spoke, Pulin continued to walk forward and came to the sixth mural. The sixth mural painted a city. Although the city walls were short, there was nothing special about them. Lots of buildings, but it's still a city. Pulin sighed and said: "The territory of the mainland is too vast. Although we occupied most of the land, many things were still very backward due to the long distance. Our tribe gradually separated into several parts. Also The current white race, the black race, and the red-haired race like the Honghu tribe. Under the influence of the original local customs, they gradually broke away from the rule of our Puyan tribe and even formed their own country. Even the most basic hobbies were naturally abandoned, and they began to destroy the forest and build the original city. Because everyone was a descendant of the Puyan tribe, we did not blame them. After all, our Puyan tribe still occupied the territory. More than half of the continent's land. "
Pulin had a sad look in his eyes as he walked to the seventh mural. There was a picture filled with gunpowder smoke, as if there was an ongoing fight between several races. war. Pulin said: "Although we did not conquer those separated races, their development speed was too fast and they had surpassed us in many aspects. Finally, they couldn't bear their loneliness and united to attack our Puyan tribe. War. In that war, both sides suffered huge losses, but after all, our Puyan tribe had an absolute advantage, and it ended with our victory. That was about 1,200 years ago. After that, the predecessors of the current Tianjin Empire and the Sunset Empire appeared. Races like the Yalian Tribe also gradually developed after the war. Although the territory of our Puyan Tribe did not decrease, it died in the war. The large number of tribesmen makes it impossible for us to take care of all the borders. Due to the baptism of the war, all races have been greatly traumatized. Everyone has entered a stage of recuperation, and our Puyan tribe has also started from that time. From prosperity to decline." Two lines of clear tears flowed from Pu Lin's eyes, his body trembled slightly, and with a sigh, he walked towards the eighth mural.
The eighth mural depicts a group of people. No, they cannot be called people because their skin is green and their hands have spikes. Their human appearance cannot hide the evil aura emanating from them. The red eyes were full of strange colors. In the center of the group of people, there was a giant who was three times as tall as an ordinary green man. He had two wings on his back, and there were spikes around the green wings. There was a single horn on his forehead, and the spikes on his hands shone with a dazzling cold light. His ferocious look made people shudder. Xuan Yue lost her voice and said: "This, isn't this the ancient demon god?"
Pulin nodded and said: "Yes, he is the ancient demon god. It can also be said that he is the demon god worshiped by the dark demon people. At that time, the war After that, peace lasted for less than a hundred years. This kind of green race suddenly appeared on the continent. They were ferocious and cruel, and were born with destructive power. They are the Dark Demons who are now extremely rare in number, but they have not annihilated the race. . And this guy you call the Ancient Demon God is the God of Dark Demon. His power is beyond what you can imagine now. The reproduction rate of Dark Demon people is very fast, including our Puyan tribe and Hua. No one, including the Nansi people in the Sheng Empire, knew how they appeared on the mainland. Their appearance was simply a nightmare for mankind at that time. The Pope should know that the catastrophe thousands of years ago was caused by the Dark Demons. At the beginning, their numbers were not too large, but their bodies were much stronger than ordinary people. They quickly occupied a small area of the continent, and all races that opposed them were defeated. The calamity of annihilation. In just fifty years, the number of Dark Demons has exceeded ten million. That was all our original mistake! There would be no future results. The Dark Demons launched an attack on all races. Millions of Dark Demon warriors rushed into the continent. In just five years, they actually occupied half of the territory on the continent. At that time, at last, The first one to be slaughtered was our Puyan tribe. Although our Puyan tribe was powerful, due to lack of preparation and the inherent tyranny of the Dark Demons, we were unable to stop their progress in five years, just five years. ! The number of our Puyan tribe has dropped to one-fifth of what it was before." At this point, Pu Lin couldn't help but burst into tears, feeling deeply sad for his tribe. .
After a long time, Pulin's emotions calmed down a little. He took a few steps forward and walked to the ninth mural. On the mural, a tall young man was painted with a magic wand in his hand. , a faint white halo emanated from him, and behind him were countless soldiers of all races. What surprised Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue most was that in the sky above his head, there were more than a dozen legendary soldiers of various races. Giant dragons of various colors are circling and flying. In front of him was the Dark Demon Clan commanded by the Dark Demon God. Pu Lin sighed and said: "Just when our Puyan tribe was about to be exterminated, the savior appeared. Under his guidance, all races on the continent united as one, and with the help of the ancient dragon, fought against the Dark Demon Tribe. When the war ended, although under the wise leadership of the savior, we eliminated most of the Dark Demons, the number of humans on the entire continent dropped to one-fifth of what it was before the disaster, and we Only less than 5% of the Puyan tribe remains. The Savior launched the forbidden curse that destroyed the world. Although not all the Dark Demon tribe members were wiped out, their ability to reproduce has been completely restricted until now. , the Dark Demons are still the target of extermination by various countries. However, after that war, they gradually moved from the ground to the underground, and it is difficult to find their traces. According to my estimation, their number will not be too many. "
Hearing this, Ah-Dai couldn't help but think of the pirates he met when he was sailing with Coris. Coris had told him at the beginning that the green-skinned one was the Dark Demon.
Pulin walked to the last mural with a sad face. What was painted on this mural was a group of humans dressed as magicians surrounding the Dark Demon God. The leader of the humans was the man who was The man whom Prin calls the savior. Green blood was flowing all over the Dark Demon God's body, and a huge magic six-pointed star was looming under his feet. Pulin said: "Finally, after humans eliminated the Dark Demons, under the leadership of the Savior, they surrounded the Dark Demons on a large mountain. There, all the advanced magicians and the most powerful warriors in mankind were gathered. Under the leadership of the Savior, With the help, he successfully killed the Dark Demon God and sealed his body and soul in the mountain range, which is now the Death Mountain."
Xuan Yue and Ah-Dai took a breath. , they never thought that the place they were about to go would actually be the place where the ancient demon god was sealed.
Pu Lin's body seemed to be very weak. He barely supported his body with a wooden stick and said sadly: "In that huge catastrophe, the most serious loss was our Puyan tribe. But in the end, when the mainland When peace was restored, we were forgotten by everyone. They did not return our land because our numbers were simply not enough to rule the vast territory. Under the guidance of the savior, the continent was redivided into five large areas. The current Tianjin Empire, the Sunset Empire, the Huasheng Empire, the Suoyu Federation and the Holy Holy See. The few remaining people of the Puyan Tribe have become just a race in the Suoyu Federation. After thousands of years of glory, it finally declined. If we, the Puyan Tribe, had not used the lives of our people to hold back the progress of the Dark Demon Tribe, he would not have been able to bring all mankind back to its feet and achieve final victory! Our Puyan clan has not received the respect we deserve."
Xuan Yue frowned and said, "Prophet Pulin, is the savior you are talking about the first Pope of our Holy See, His Majesty Shen Yu?"
Pulin nodded and said: "Yes, the savior in my mouth is His Majesty Shen Yu, the first Pope. Our Puyan tribe has never hated the Holy See, because without His Majesty Shen Yu, there would be no There is no mainland today. At that time, he took great care of us. However, we hated all other races. It was our Puyan tribe who sacrificed the lives of our people to save most of them. However, when His Majesty Shen Yu proposed. When they returned our territory, they were evasive and refused to return it. It was because of that incident that His Majesty Shen Yu retreated into seclusion in the holy mountain of the Holy See. But what His Majesty Shen Yu did will never be forgotten. , the year he retired to seclusion was called the first year of the Holy Calendar.”
Duan said: "The Puyan people are really pitiful! Ninety-five percent of them died, what a huge number! Prophet Pulin, don't be sad."
Pulin Shaking his head sadly, he said: "Everything happened a thousand years ago, so what's the use of me being sad? When His Majesty Shenyu retired, he once said that after a thousand years, there will be another catastrophe on the mainland. At that time If the disaster cannot be overcome, the continent will fall into dire straits again. The millennium is approaching, and the disaster is coming, and you are the only one who can save mankind."
Xuan Yue frowned and said: "I still can't believe that we are the so-called saviors. With our power, it is impossible to do anything big on the mainland, let alone help you. What. I think you should talk to the Pope.”
Pu Lin shook his head and said: "No, you are the ones who can help our Puyan tribe. Even the Pope cannot violate God's will. Although your strength is insufficient now, one day you will understand what I have done today. Everything I have done. In fact, I don’t want to ask you for anything. I just hope that when the disaster comes, you can preserve the blood of our Puyan tribe and let our tribe continue to develop on the mainland. I will be satisfied. "
Before Xuan Yue could speak, Ah-Dai, who had already listened with excitement, said impulsively: "Prophet Purin, I promise you that if there is any disaster on the mainland, I will definitely help you Pu Yan. The clan will get through this difficult time." Xuan Yue squeezed Ah-Dai's hand hard, but still couldn't stop him from saying what was in his heart.
Pulin showed a smile of relief on his face, and said in a trembling voice: "My child, thank you, the future of our Puyan tribe depends entirely on you. Xuan Yue, I know that you are a member of the Holy See I have a lot of worries. But as an old man in his dying years, would I deceive you? I just hope that my people can survive. In this way, my wish will be achieved."
Xuan Yue glared at Ah-Dai and said: "Prophet Pulin, if everything is as you said, I promise you that I will try my best to protect your Puyan tribe. Of course, I mean within the scope of my ability. With our current capabilities , let alone protecting your Puyan clan, it is a problem to protect ourselves." After saying that, there was a sly look in her eyes.
Pulin smiled slightly and said: "You girl, although you are not old, you are really a ghost. What I say to you now will not be as true as what you see with your own eyes in the future. Remember you Today, of course, your help is not free. Come with me." He waved the wooden stick in his hand, and the stone wall at the last mural suddenly cracked, revealing a narrow gap. Pu Lin walked in first, and Xuan Yue whispered to Ah-Dai: "Why are you so stupid? How could you agree to his request so impulsively when we first met? Even if he didn't tell the truth or not, in Pu Lin The Rock Clan is such a dangerous place, you..., forget it, I won’t talk about you, you don’t understand.” After saying that, he led the confused Dui into the crack in the stone wall.
This cannot be called another grotto, because the place is too small, only about ten square meters, so it can only be called a stone chamber. Surrounded by uneven stone walls, in the center of the stone chamber, there is a square stone platform about one meter high and half a meter long on a side. Prophet Pulin was standing in front of the stone platform. When he saw Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue coming in, he said, "It's really presumptuous to ask you to help our Puyan tribe when we meet for the first time. In order to express our sincerity and enhance your strength, , I will give each of you something. Xuan Yue, come here."
Xuan Yue glanced at Ah-Dai, let go of the little hands held by Ah-Dai, and walked over. Prophet Pulin sighed and said: "Child, Pulin is my real name. I also have a false name on the mainland. In the early years, when I was wandering around on the mainland, I always used that name. That name was Yuanmu."
Although Pulin's words were spoken very calmly, they sounded like thunder in Xuan Yue's ears. She swayed and said in shock: "What? You are Magister Yuanmu. "On the mainland, apart from the Holy Holy See, there are only three magicians who have reached the magister level. One is the current president of the Tianjin Empire’s National Magician Union, Magister Lardas, who is good at fire magic. The second one is Biinluoge, the chief court magician of the Sunset Empire, who is good at wind magic. The last one is also the most mysterious magician on the continent, Yuan Mu, who is good at space magic. Among the three major magisters, in terms of attack power, the fire mage Lardas is definitely the most powerful, but in terms of overall strength, it is the space mage Yuanmu. His space magic was once shocking, and even Xuan Yue's father, Xuan Ye, the youngest red-robed priest in the Vatican, highly praised him.
Pulin smiled slightly and said: "What? Don't I look like that? But that's exactly what it is. The reason why you can't use magic here is because I used the space system's magic circle to limit the magic elements. Since the appearance of the Blood Sun, I have disappeared on the mainland, because I am waiting for you to appear. Don’t be too surprised, I am Yuanmu, and what I want to give you is my magic handbook. . Although my space magic is not comparable to the holy light magic of the Holy See, it is still powerful under the study of our Puyan tribe's prophets. I know that you have many treasures, so this magic handbook. It should be what you need most. I can see that you have extraordinary magic talent, but you just don't work hard enough. My space magic and the light magic you originally practiced are not in conflict with each other, but they can complement each other. You have to work hard, otherwise, your achievements in the future will be far inferior to Dumb." As he said this, Pulin made a swipe in the air, and a crack appeared in the air. He grabbed it, and a thick leather notebook appeared in Xuan. In front of the moon. .
