Scene 205 I Will Make You King

Scene 205 I will declare you king

This is Tinder.

It has been sleeping quietly in the darkness for thousands of years. The faint light is like a glimmer of dawn in the depths. A goddess stretches out her hand, with a warm and soft smile, guiding her children forward. Everyone was completely shocked by such a scene and couldn't speak for a long time, even Brando was no exception.

"Master Martha..." Akane, Funya and Mephistopheles muttered to themselves absentmindedly.

She never gave up on her child, as if she had been silent for thousands of years, but this flame was always burning tenaciously under the erosion, through the darkness, until her child came here again. It was a lighthouse, but it revealed a gentle and great power that penetrated people's hearts.

Brando raised his head, with a rare solemn expression on his face. This was the transmission of civilization. Countless generations later, they came here again, picking up the torches left by their ancestors on the ground, and letting the fire of civilization penetrate the darkness once again. A kind of sacred emotion was flowing in his blood. He could feel the pulsing of such indestructible power even with his eyes closed. It was the yearning of all intelligent creatures for civilization, order, fire and light.

When Prometheus ignited the first fire on the dark and vast earth, civilization walked out of ignorance for the first time and began its never-ending search for a bright world. That kind of emotion is passed down in the blood, and at a specific moment, it suddenly awakens, like a trumpet on the vast land, and instantly brings people back to the era of pioneering in the wilderness.

This is the will of our ancestors.

Brando took a deep breath, and he couldn't help but look back at the others. Mephistopheles nodded to him, Akane put her hands on her chest nervously and looked at him uneasily, Funya looked at them and then at Brando, a little confused.

"Then I'll go and let the fire spread all over the land." Brando replied.

"Go." The Gray Sword Saint looked at this 'lighthouse' with a solemn expression.

So Brando turned back and walked up the steps step by step, approaching the huge crystal. The soft light continuously emitted from the crystal, and when everyone raised their heads, they watched him walk towards the light step by step, and the light actually feathered behind him, becoming more and more like a robe and crown added to his body. .

At this moment, a motto from the Cangzhi Poem of the Cruz people suddenly flashed across Mephisto's mind:

‘My child, I will give you wings of light, so that I can call you the king——’

Although I think this is just nonsense,

But under such a scene, the Gray Sword Master couldn't help but feel his heart beating loudly. This scene makes it look like Brando is approaching Martha step by step, and the supreme goddess of all things is about to crown the young man who lowered his head.

But he didn't know that this feeling was stronger in Brando's heart. The closer he got to the light, the stronger it became, as if it was trying to contain him. He stretched out his hand and put it on the crystal. With his heart pounding, he could not help but think of this sentence:

"Master Martha, after thousands of years, your child has returned here again——"

But what happened next scared Brando so much that he almost let go of his hand and rolled down the pyramid. Because without any warning, a strange will responded to the crystal. This will gently wrapped him around him and sighed:

"Yes, it's been a long time, my child."

"This this……"

Brando's mind went blank for a moment, with only one voice echoing, this is Martha! This is the most holy mother of all things, the pure will of the world, Martha! The goddess that countless NPCs and players praise all the time actually exists! But this is impossible!

It was like a thunder exploded in his mind, and the mighty roar instantly completely shut down his thinking. No player would think that in the era after the gods disappeared, Martha still existed in this world. Although she left good intentions, all that was left was just a memory.

People remember this goddess repeatedly, hoping that she will still stay in this world and continue to look after her children. Because people in the world need a spiritual support to live strong.

Martha no longer exists. There are only connections between heaven and earth. This is the common understanding of everyone after the Four Saints.

But I didn't expect that the supreme goddess would actually stay on this land, silently and permanently watching over her children.

No one thought.

Brando didn't expect that for some reason, the moment he heard Martha's gentle voice, he felt something wet rolling down his cheek. The strong emotion couldn't be stopped, just It seemed that at that moment, after being away from the warm embrace of my mother for thousands of years, I felt the soft tenderness again.

"Ah, there's sand in my eyes." Brando said a little embarrassed.

Martha smiled.

"Don't cry, children. Although I am far away from you, I can still feel your belief in pursuing and yearning for light. I once watched civilization walk out of its infancy, pass through the dark land, split the thorns, and stagger out step by step. Savage, one day, I believe, I believe you will overcome these hardships and achieve the final victory."

"You who have inherited the ancient bloodline are the best children of mankind. You should be strong." She said softly.

"Victory?" Brando was startled, a little confused.

Martha shook her head slightly and asked: "So my child, are you ready to light this fire and inherit the path of your predecessors? You understand that the torch of civilization is passed from generation to generation, and the predecessors fall However, later generations have regained their will. This kind of history is originally an epic filled with the most tragic and courageous stories of mortal races——"

"This is a game for the brave, and everyone is a part of this magnificent epic, so my child, when you come here, are you ready to accept it all?"

Brando took a gentle breath. This was the proper procedure. Although he had never ignited the original fire, he also knew that what remained of the original fire should be part of Martha's will. But at this moment, he felt something different. He was somewhat certain that the person in front of him should be Martha herself.

Although she is not here.

"Of course, I'm ready," he replied.

"Okay, my child, let me ask you a few questions?" A soft voice sounded in his heart.

"Huh?" Brando was slightly startled, this is wrong! He still understood the general steps of igniting a fire. After making an agreement with Martha, this kind goddess should directly start the order. But why is there an extra step now? Could it be because of primitive fire? He had never lit the original fire, so he was not sure, but at this time it was more appropriate to follow the goddess's wishes, so he nodded.

What's more, the mother-like tenderness of this goddess makes people unable to bear to refuse her.

Martha smiled.

"I ask you, child, do you have faith in your heart?"

"belief?"

"The idea of ​​having something to live for can be regarded as a belief in itself. Whether it is honor, strength, or just wanting to move forward, because with a goal, civilization can move forward."

Brando thought of everyone Eruin was familiar with at that moment. He thought of Freya, Roman and the Princess Regent, the residents of Butchi, and the refugees he brought out from Lidenburg.

"Maybe, there is..."

Martha placed a crown of light on his head, and gently touched his forehead in a soft white light: "Child, do you understand the meaning of the crown?"

What does the crown mean? Brando thought, isn't that a symbol of supreme royal power, but this answer must be wrong for Martha, because human kingship is meaningless to her, and she doesn't need power. So he shook his head.

"The person who wears the crown is called a king. The person who is called a king always walks in front of everyone. Only in this way can he let his people see his back. However, as long as people Seeing that back makes them strong and gives them the courage to keep going.”

"So do you understand? A king is destined to shine and heat, to be looked up to by everyone. In the darkness, he leads everyone to overcome thorns and thorns, always moving forward to illuminate the endless depths, such an indomitable road. , can it be called the dedication of a king."

"The king's... dedication?" Brando felt the crown placed on his head by the goddess, and his heart suddenly jumped a little.

"What do you think is dedication?"

"Devotion?"

Brando raised his head. He couldn't see the goddess clearly in the hazy light, but the woman always looked at him with a smile, and there was an unchanging expectation in her eyes. Such expectations made him muster up the courage to follow his own heart and answer word for word:

"I think the so-called dedication should be something that can satisfy your heart and complete it without any regrets."

"Have you any such thing to accomplish, my boy?"

"I think... yes?" Brando once again thought of Eruin in his homeland, and of the palace burning in the flames. The so-called irresistible desire to change things, perhaps this is the meaning of his coming here.

At this moment when he saw Martha, he suddenly understood.

The expectation in Martha's eyes turned into approval.

She said: "So some people are destined to be different from others, just because they always have such a light in their hearts and an unyielding belief to change the world. No matter whether they succeed or not, there is always a bright future behind them. Stretch out the wings of Hikari and make everyone behind him feel warm."

"Such people are called heroes by history."

"Child, I am very satisfied with your answer, so I give you a gift to witness you fulfill your promise -" the goddess suddenly said. As soon as she finished speaking, a voice sounded in Brando's heart:

"System prompt: [Destiny Talent] The Chosen One, activate."

"Fate...talent of destiny?" Brando was once again stunned, talent of destiny? Hasn't he already accepted the inheritance of the Dark Dragon? But dual destiny talent? What the hell is this! What is going on? Is there a bug in the system?

Brando felt that he was a little numb from the shock, but he couldn't help but cursed that even if you were Lord Martha, you couldn't cheat like this! And why is he the chosen one? Shouldn’t Martha’s destiny talent be Martha’s son?

The goddess seemed to see what he was thinking, and smiled slightly: "Indeed, the chosen one is not the best talent. But it has placed my expectations on you, child, just like what was described in the ancient prophecies ——I will give you wings made of light, so that I can call you king."

"I hope you will continue to walk according to your words, and one day, my child, I will be glorified by you."

"Glory because of me?" Brando was puzzled.

But the goddess stopped answering. She raised her head, her gaze seemed to pass through the endless void, and all the darkness was clearly visible under her gaze. Then a gentle smile appeared on her face:

"Come, let us witness this moment together, my child, the light will return to the earth."

She raised her hand.

An endless white light emerged from the darkness.

that moment--

The entire ring of trade winds, everyone and all the monsters, suddenly stopped for an instant. Everyone and every monster felt a faint throbbing in their hearts. As if by some kind of opportunity, the laws between heaven and earth were completely calm. Coming down, the power of the huge demon tide was suppressed in an instant.

"This is impossible!" Such thoughts emerged in everyone's mind, but nothing was impossible. When they subconsciously turned around, they saw sword-like white lights piercing through the darkness between heaven and earth. The Ring of Trade Winds is a wall of clouds towering high above the clouds, streaks piercing the sky, piercing through like shells.

The light is coming out——

The fire was ignited.
