Chapter 348 Seal and Prophecy(1/2)
"Since the disappearance of Findenir, our royal family and our people have transformed into the Imon Loka clan and integrated into Mondstadt. However, we who have been favored by the glorious god still remember the experience of that year. In order to pay tribute to the ancestors who survived the wind and snow tenaciously,
People and the brave men who save the clan, we are here according to the rules set by our ancestors from generation to generation..."
At this point, Fanmire's words suddenly got stuck. He frowned, as if he was searching for something in his mind.
After a while, he took out a piece of paper from his side as if giving up and read the words written on it.
"Sorry, this year's words are different from previous years. I forgot the words."
ha?
Upon hearing this, the image of a shrewd and wise priest that Bai Qiyun had just created in his mind suddenly collapsed.
‘My father is not a serious and elegant person’
Suddenly, Gaza's words rang in his mind.
Bai Qiyun twitched the corner of his mouth, it turned out that this was what the guy meant.
After searching for a long time, Fanmire finally found the lines he needed to read.
"Ahem, before the miracle of this glorious god, give me proof of your bravery."
After saying that, he winked at the young man in front of him, seeming to be hinting at something.
Proof of bravery? It's the things that need to be collected in the mission, right?
Hearing this, Bai Qiyun took out three things from his backpack that could prove that he had completed the task.
Vanmire took them one by one and spread them flat on the ground.
Unlike the other two things that looked magnificent, the heart of the Wild Boar King was immediately thrown aside by Fanmire.
This thing is the most useless to him. It has no use other than throwing it into the kitchen.
He was just afraid that the disobedient wild boars might cause some trouble during the celebration, so he asked the brave to deal with them smoothly.
In addition, those two crystals emitting completely different power fluctuations were what he valued.
One is ice that has been soaked by the power of the snow-capped mountains for thousands of years, and the other is the crystallization of the power of the holy tree stimulated by the blood of the demonic dragon.
The opposing but unified forces of the two are one of the mysterious sources of the snow-capped mountains that have stood here for thousands of years.
Fanmire collected two crystals and placed them on an altar.
This altar is connected to the seal of the Great God of Glory. Now that its power is gradually weakening, replenishing it is what the Imon Loka clan needs to do.
Otherwise, if the power of the Cold Sky Nail really spreads out from the seal, it will be a trivial matter to completely transform the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain into a restricted area for living beings. If it really spreads to Mondstadt and affects the surrounding residents, that is
It's a big deal.
Therefore, in order to replenish the power of the altar in time, Fanmire and Biximos met and took advantage of this celebration to ask the brave to help collect the necessary items.
Of course, if the hero himself has not completed it, they will collect it after the ceremony.
After all, this seal will not collapse in a day.
The two crystals melted under the action of the formation inlaid on the altar, turning into two red and blue rays of light, flowing into the seal.
In an instant, the seal's light shone brightly, making the surrounding snow even brighter.
Standing here, Bai Qiyun finally understood why the bright light was still reflected on the snow of the snow-capped mountains covered with dark clouds. It turned out that it was scattered from here.
Standing in front of the seal, Bai Qiyun couldn't even open his eyes under the strong light, and had to rely on the induction of elemental power to move.
On the other hand, perhaps because of his adaptation, Fanmire was at ease in this environment and moved freely.
After a while, the fluctuations of the seal gradually dissipated, and the light gradually faded, becoming no longer so dazzling.
I don't know if it was Bai Qiyun's illusion, but the surrounding wind and snow seemed to have weakened a bit.
Seeing this, Fanmire nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, that's almost it."
If there are no major changes, there should be no problems with the seal within five to ten years.
As for the materials needed to repair the seal next time, there is no need to worry.
As the breath of the Cold Sky Nail leaks out, its own power to stimulate the snow-capped mountains will condense into a substance like 'thousand-year ice' somewhere. In contrast, the ancient tree will condense a tree species to resist
The nail of cold weather.
When the time comes, just collect them again at the altar.
Seeing that the seal had stabilized, the priest turned around and looked at the young man from a foreign land in front of him.
"Your Majesty the Brave, please accept this."
An exquisite pendant lies in the man's hand, looking ordinary.
Bai Qiyun took it and looked at it for a few times, but found nothing special. It was just like an ordinary decoration.
Just when he rubbed its surface with his palm, an inexplicable throbbing surged back and forth in his heart.
Is it an illusion?
Seeing Bai Qiyun's thinking face, Fan Mielei didn't know what he was thinking, so he laughed twice.
"Haha, there is no need to think so much. This thing was passed down from our ancestors. It is lent to the brave men of that year during the annual celebration. Of course, it must be returned after the celebration."
"I see."
It seemed to be just a symbolic commemorative item. Bai Qiyun hung it around his neck to prevent it from being lost.
Just when one of his today's journey was about to end, Fanmire looked at the seal again and began to talk eloquently.
"A long time ago, the great priest Faruhi once said that the black dragon that covers the sky will one day come here and bring destruction and disaster to everything in the world."
After saying that, the priest turned around.
"These are all prophecies from the past, things that we, as future generations, must keep in mind."
"oh."
But saying it was a prophecy, Bai Qiyun felt that Fan Mielei's expression just now didn't seem like he was telling those illusory things.
Fanmire's subsequent words answered his doubts.
"For the priest Faruhi, these are prophecies he has received, but for us, they are all facts that have actually happened."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Facts?"
Bai Qiyun raised his eyebrows, thinking of the relevant matters recorded in Mondstadt's history books.
Speaking of black dragons, there are only a few creatures that can be related to dragons in Mondstadt in recent hundreds of years. If you filter them based on the language, the rest of the answers will be revealed.
"Dragon Dulin?"
"Ha, Your Excellency, the Brave Lord, is quite knowledgeable about the history of Mondstadt. Yes, it is the Demon Dragon Dulin. It was shot down by the Dragon of the East Wind five hundred years ago and was eventually buried in the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain.
The life force radiating from the sacred tree we see today is also a part of it."
Fanmire raised his chin towards the altar, and Bai Qiyun immediately realized what the so-called 'tree seed' was.
That thing is essentially the crystallization of the power absorbed by the ancient tree in order to resist the Cold Sky Nail. If the Demon Dragon Dulin is indeed buried here, then it is also a thing that the thing has a trace of its power.
Reasonable things.
"To this day, the power of the magic dragon still exists in the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain and has never been cut off."
Although it was ironic for a Mondlander to use the power of the dragon, as a priest of the Immon Loka clan, Fanmire chose to use this power to help them strengthen the seal of the Cold Sky Nail.
After all, there is nothing more suitable than it, right?
"I see. No wonder you admire the predictions of your ancestors so much. It turns out they have been confirmed."
Hearing this, Fanmire smiled.
"Of course, it's just that only the first half of the prophecy has been confirmed. We haven't witnessed the second half of the prophecy yet, so in order to pass it on forever, we chose to hold a celebration."
celebration?
Bai Qiyun's heart moved.
Speaking of celebrations, wouldn't it be a stage play tomorrow...
Facing the young man's gaze, Fanmire nodded.
"That's right, the stage play that His Royal Highness the Tomorrow Heroes and Gaza will star in is adapted from the prophecy as a script. Please check the specific plot with the kid from Gaza."
During the conversation between the two, the seal behind Fanmire gradually stabilized, and even the fluctuations no longer emitted.
At this point, the so-called bravery honor awarding ceremony officially ends.
"Well, it's getting late, and it's time for Your Excellency the Brave to go back and rest."
Bai Qiyun understood that this was an order to expel guests.
He originally didn't want to stay in this extremely cold place, so he planned to leave directly and return to the camp.
But just before he took a step forward, the man behind him suddenly spoke.
"Your Excellency Brave, please don't tell anyone what we said today. After all, it is not good for some things to spread too widely."
To be continued...
