Chapter 1401 The Tenth Activator
After listening to the Fairy Queen's words, I knew that my old habit of preconceptions had recurred.
Just because you haven't said it doesn't mean it hasn't happened, just like everyone eats every day, but they never talk to everyone about what they ate today.
When I felt guilty for my old habits, the Fairy Queen began to tell the life experience of the tenth foreigner who activated the artifact.
That happened more than 1,700 years ago.
At that time, he was a young uncle who was about to turn thirty. He was a human race and his identity was an ordinary farmer. Before becoming a farmer, he had been an adventurer for a while, but due to some ulterior reasons, he gave up being an adventurer. career, and returned to his hometown to start a farming life.
By chance, he dug out the artifact while digging the ground. As an adventurer, he could tell it was a weapon at a glance. He also knew from the brilliance released when the artifact was activated that it was a special weapon. .
Because of this weapon, he started his life as an adventurer again.
At the same time, the Zephyr Continent was once again on the verge of destruction - with a particularly strong dungeon movement and strange tide occurring at the same time, the monsters dormant in the dungeon began to riot, and after an extremely violent riot, broke into After leaving the portal and coming to reality, a period of brutal massacre that was unbearable to look back began.
The farmer who owned the artifact, with the blessing of the artifact, fought bravely and was invincible. He soon stood out and became the hero everyone expected.
And in the subsequent battle, he led a group of heroes to eliminate all monsters that invaded the Zephyr Continent.
After the battle to save Zephyr Continent, he and the several heroes he led were revered as legendary heroes by the world.
"This farmer was the later founder of Airey City, Carter Adams."
"It's him!" I almost laughed out loud: "The ancestor of the Carter family, who completely looked down on farmers, turned out to be just a farmer. What an interesting irony!"
"The same rice feeds hundreds of people," the Fairy Queen said, "There are never two identical leaves in this world, let alone humans."
"Where is his artifact?" I asked, "Is it missing?"
"Yes." The Fairy Queen was a little helpless: "Originally, after the war, he selflessly returned the artifact to our clan, but on the way back, a group of unidentified guys appeared. Although the escort members defeated them in one fell swoop, But the artifact was also lost on the way."
"Lost?" I frowned and pinched my chin: "Why was it lost? Isn't there anyone taking care of the tools carrying the artifact?"
"I don't know." The Fairy Queen shook her head and said: "The record only said that it was lost, and did not mention any personnel allocation to guard the artifact. Afterwards, the group of people responsible for escorting were sentenced to death for missing the artifact and other crimes. Their remains It was also sent to Moonlight City for disposal.”
"Why do I feel that there is a strong flavor of conspiracy hidden in this!" I thought for a while and said: "Grandma Queen, think about it, such an important task as escorting the artifact must be done by a strong person with absolute strength. Since the guys who came to snatch the artifact could be defeated in one fell swoop, it meant that they were not strong. Since they were not strong, how could they steal the artifact under the noses of a group of strong men? Moreover, no investigation team was mobilized afterwards. During the investigation, he did not search around, but immediately executed the members who escorted the artifact. This was simply an act of destroying evidence! If I guessed correctly, Carter Adams had no intention of returning the artifact from the beginning. Here you go, all this is just a means for him to show his righteousness!"
"Everyone understands the truth, but there is no evidence," the Fairy Queen sighed: "Moreover, at that time, the Fairy Tribe had already begun to move forward on the road of decline, and was unable to sanction any country alone."
Listening to her words, there was endless loss and sadness. The goblin clan, which was once aloof and second only to God, could not withstand the changes of the years.
Feeling a little sentimental, I thought for a moment and asked: "Grandma Queen, do you think that artifact is still in Airui City?"
"I don't know," she said, "I have never been to Airey City. Even if I went, Carter Horton would not return the artifact to me."
"So, you actually suspect that the artifact is in Airui City, right?"
"So what if you doubt it?"
"That'll be easy," I said, "I can send someone to check it out. If it's really in Airui City, I can just steal it out. Anyway, I've done a lot of stealing things." "
"You." The Fairy Queen smiled and shook her head: "Don't think about these things anymore. Even if the artifact is really in Airui City, so what. I don't think Carter Horton and his son may be able to activate it. An artifact that cannot be activated is the same as an ordinary artifact. There is no difference between high-grade stainless steel weapons, at most they are sharper and tougher than them."
"Listening to what you said, it sounds like you don't want to get that artifact back," I said.
She smiled bitterly: "It would be best if we could get it back, but even if we can't get it back, it doesn't matter. Anyway, now we have confirmed that we have two artifacts, the Moonlight Scepter and the Crown of the King. Even if we really want to fight, whoever has one artifact The other party may not be our opponent.”
"It would be fine if that's the case." I pouted and said worriedly, "Do you think the people in Airui City are also looking for artifacts, or that they have actually found more than one artifact, but they just keep hiding it?" If you don’t send it, is it possible?”
"I can't say for sure," the Fairy Queen said, "Everything can only be left to fate."
Feeling the melancholy, I couldn't help but feel depressed. I sighed and was about to reach out and take off the crown of king on my head, but was stopped by the Fairy Queen: "Put it on and let Remi sleep for a while."
"But I feel like you are also disturbed by this thing."
"It does not interfere with me strongly." The Queen shook her head and said: "Maybe its interference with others is related to the strength gap between you and the other party. I am much stronger than you, so its interference with me is very limited and will only make people feel uncomfortable." I feel very comfortable, but it doesn’t directly induce sleep.”
Come to think of it, what the Queen said makes sense!
When Mr. Taylor was exposed to the light group, not only did he not sleep, he became more and more energetic!
But if that's the case, then what about Emily? Why does she sleep soundly? Is it just because she wants to sleep?
I don't understand it a bit, but it's not an important thing after all. If I can't understand it, I won't think about it.
The topic of the King's Crown was over. I took out the blood-stained stone from my backpack and handed it to the Fairy Queen, saying, "Grandma Queen, can you help me translate the words on it? I don't recognize them at all. "
