There is a high ground in the north of the White City, which is separated from all the city and is protected by an additional ring of walls, around which the best guards of Talos and the most powerful mages have been stationed around this high ground for generations, a permanent forbidden force field has been operating above the high ground for three centuries, neither a dragon nor a small bird can fly above the high ground, and on the ground, there is only one avenue extending from the royal quarter that leads to the entrance to the high ground—so tightly guarded to protect only one thing, That is the foundation of any country of order, the tower of the sun.Standing proudly on the terrace, the tower was larger than any other building in the White City, and the top of the Golden Rose Palace was only half the waist of the Sunburn Tower.The white tower is made of the purest enchanted luna, the surface is engraved with ancient runes that only the scholars of the Holy Realm can fully decipher, and the blue and gold crystals are inlaid on the outer wall of the tower according to a certain law, forming a powerful energy field that makes the entire land around the highlands soaked in magic, and at the top of this streamlined white tower, three huge white crystals rotate around the "Yang Flame Crystal" at the top of the tower, spreading the powerful power of order from inside the tower to the sky day and night.Unlike other Order Relic, the Sunburn Tower does not emit such a strong and obvious pillar of light, in fact, this sacred and powerful tower does not emit any additional light at all, except for a glimmer of light: the Sunburn Tower is not used to light the barrier of order, but its main function is to serve as an energy redistribution center and divine power hub for all Order towers in the kingdom (including the Furnace and Flame Towers).Within a national barrier of order, all the towers are connected in the underworld, and their power forms a sea of energy in another dimensional realm invisible to humans, and the true form of the Sunburn Tower is hidden in this sea of energy, where it shines and dominates all the forces of order.The above is all knowledge constructed by the scholars of the Kolo world through various calculus models, and in fact, in the eyes of humans, the connection between the Sunburn Tower and the other towers is completely invisible.However, Hao Ren could see it.He followed Rudolf III with the princesses and princes to the Sunburn Tower, and when he looked up, he saw countless pale silver rays extending from the top of the tower, which crisscrossed the sky, forming a large net that covered almost the entire sky above the high ground, and these rays would fade away from the Sunburn Tower, and disappear from sight.When Rudolf III came to the gate of the Sunburn Tower, the old king put his hand on the door made of Mithril and whispered the oath left by the ancestor of Kolo and the goddess of creation, and with a rumbling sound, the gate gradually slid open to both sides.Inside is a space filled with light.The beams of light crisscross in the huge space, refracting out of thin air or bending along the invisible medium, forming a complex and changeable mysterious three-dimensional pattern, while a piece of white crystal is suspended in the center of all the light, and the crystal rotates to constantly refract a variety of bizarre pictures, under the crystal, is a pool with a radius of about two meters, the pool is filled with crystal clear, as if condensed light-like liquid.Hao Ren looked closely and found that there was actually a layer of something suspended above the liquid, and after looking at it for a long time, he realized that it was an extremely thin and translucent silver-white flame that could barely be seen clearly.The flame burned silently above the liquid, as if ready to be extinguished at any moment."
This is the Holy Flame of Order in the Sunburn Tower," Rudolf III came to the pool, quietly looking at the phantom silver-white flames, "For the past seven years, my blood has continued to burn here, and when it was at its peak, it could almost envelop the entire Holy White Crystal, but now it ......"
Hao Ren thought for a moment and decided to express his opinion in a more tactful way: "I think it's going to be extinguished when it sees it." ”"Veronica will light these flames, and the legacy of the kingdom of Talos will continue," said Rudolf III, looking at the only descendant who still had the power of the caretaker, "Veronica, the moment you light this flame, you will take my scepter, and you will become the new ruler of Talos, and as a queen, you should use your power carefully, and you can no longer be as reckless and willful as before." ”Veronica was stunned for a moment, obviously the knight princess hadn't thought so much about it before: "Huh?"
You should know what it means to light ......the flame," the king waved his hand, "I am not bringing you here for fun, but to show you the fate of the kingdom in the future."
Veronica, darkness has fallen, this continent, and indeed all the continents of order will be extinguished in the long night, and Talos will most likely become the last beacon in the slow night, this is a difficult time, but we have no choice.Perhaps our kingdom will be extinguished one day, but you, as the guardian of the kingdom, will at least let them live out the last century of peace. ”Veronica's lips moved, and the strong knight princess also flinched a little: "Father, I ......
I don't think I'm a good king, but in terms of ability alone, Ania is much smarter than me, I can only go to war, and other times I'm stupid. ”Rudolf III looked at his eldest daughter quietly, and for a long time, a smile appeared on the old king's face: "I know." ”Veronica coughed suddenly: "Ahem......
Father, you can be tactful. ”Rudolf III sighed: "I thought about it for a long time, but I really didn't find that you have the potential to be a king." ”Veronica: "......"
"Ahem," at this time, Hao Ren really couldn't look at it, and interrupted the increasingly weird conversation between the father and daughter with two dry coughs, "What, we haven't reached the time to explain the aftermath yet, right?"
Didn't you say it before, I'll take a look at this first......
The condition of the Sunburn Tower, I am a priest anyway.If I can't do anything here, it's not too late for you to discuss the matter of abdicating and making way for Xian. ”Grand Duke Lune, who had been standing behind the king without saying a word, also stepped forward at this moment, he glanced at Hao Ren expressionlessly, and nodded slightly: "What the guardian said is reasonable, after all, the Sunburn Tower is a technology from the Holy Domain, maybe the people of the Holy Land have a way to reactivate the tower's system without using the power of the bloodline." ”Rudolf III took a deep breath when he heard this: "In that case, Guardian, please. ”There was not much expectation in the king's tone, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his eyes.It is true that there is still one Veronica left in the Kingdom of Talos to rekindle the flames, but the descendants of the other countries on the continent have all lost their power, and if this trend continues, the Kingdom of Talos will become the last refuge in the midst of chaos, and such a future will not be bright even for the people in the shelter: the chaotic power of the entire world will weigh on this border kingdom, and the result will only be to prolong the time of death slightly.So even if there is a glimmer of possibility, Rudolf III hopes that the Sunburn Towers of every country of order can be lit again, not only for the continuation of the whole world, but also so that his kingdom can have a brighter future.Now that he had lost contact with the Sanctuary, Hao Ren had clearly become the only hope.In the midst of this hopeful gaze, Hao Ren came to the bottom of the huge crystal, and he bent down to carefully observe the pool of strange liquids.These liquids are obviously not water, but they are also not blood.Burning quietly above the liquid is also not a normal flame - it does not have the slightest temperature."
Can I put my hand in there?"
He looked up and asked His Majesty, "I washed my hands." ”His Majesty the King was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the technical means of the "Guardian" inspection device would be so simple and rude, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was no such thing in the taboo of the use of the Sunburn Tower, so he nodded: "Yes, but be careful when you put it in, that water doesn't look like anything, in fact, it contains a strong energy, and ordinary people can't touch it for too long." ”Hao Ren nodded, cautiously probing his finger to the silver-white water.The moment his fingertips touched the surface of the liquid, he suddenly felt a fluctuation in his spiritual world.This feeling was fleeting, and it was as if it was some kind of illusion, but Hao Ren still keenly captured the instantaneous change just now, and he quickly made a judgment: it was not an illusion!
At that moment just now, he seemed to sense that the spiritual link of his external contact had loosened for a moment!
He pulled out his hand and saw that the silvery-white thin liquid on his fingertips was disappearing little by little, as if it had evaporated out of thin air, and the feeling of establishing a spiritual connection from before still lingered in his heart.Hao Ren frowned, this time he prepared in advance, concentrated his energy and poked his fingers into the "water" again.“…… Answer, call call, call Giant Turtle Rock Terrace call the captain, hear please answer, call call call ......"
Nolan's voice echoed in his head.Hao Ren had a big groove in his heart - after tossing for a long time, this Sunburn Tower could be used as wifi!
Who do you reason with in the supernatural realm?
