Chapter 785 A Book Dedicated to Those Who Create the Future and Hope

Miel and Heliban are a pair of siblings. This is the fourth time they have been called by this name. Because "they" once branded their names on the pillar, as long as this immortal body exists for one day, this name will continue forever.

When they were born, everyone told them that they were the descendants of heroes. The first merchant in the world was their grandmother, one of the pioneers of Black Iron City.

At the same time, they are also one of the oldest Black Iron Dragons.

They have lived for a long time, but they don't remember the past because of reincarnation. However, when walking in this city and the Dragon Palace, they often feel that they have an inexplicable familiarity with everything here.

They are familiar with everything here, every brick and tile, even the gravel in the cracks of the bricks.

The owners of this city have changed one after another, generation after generation.

And they are always here.

When they come back in reincarnation, the monks in the Dragon Palace teach them to accept inheritance and regain power according to the arrangements of the previous generation of Mil and Heliban, relearn and construct their own power system, and relearn related knowledge.

When they were older, they came to the back of the Dragon Palace.

That is, the edge of the huge pit.

I don't know when it got a name.

The Gate of the Earth.

As the two ancient black iron dragons in charge of the Dragon Palace of Black Iron City, one of their main responsibilities is to guard the Gate of the Earth and the temple deep inside.

This responsibility is said to have been passed down from the Bronze Age. When the Bronze Dragon King Salun transformed them into black iron dragons, he arranged for the two of them to guard here.

It is said that the secrets of the origin of dragon people and gods are hidden deep in the temple.

Before the Black King established the city and tribe here, the temple was already located here. Many people in the past speculated that there was incredible power in the temple and it was related to gods.

Some people also said that there was something left by the Dragon Kings of all generations, even inheritance.

At the end of the Golden Age, Black Iron City was also breached by people, and the city lord changed several times in a row during the war.

It is said.

In the War of Dragons, a powerful professional once broke into it and saw the secrets hidden in the temple.

However, most professionals went crazy because of what they saw inside, and ultimately failed to walk out of the Gate of the Earth. Those who walked out alive said that there was nothing inside, just an empty temple with only some nonsense wall carvings.

But when asked what they saw, they were very secretive, and seemed extremely unwilling to believe everything described in the temple.

The reincarnated teenagers Mil and Hriban wore black clothes embroidered with gold thread, and walked to the stairs on the edge of the cliff with the monks' help. Hundreds of years ago, when the Dragon Temple was not built, a downward staircase was built here, which was also the only passage leading to the bottom.

From today on, the two of them will once again fulfill their old duties and re-enter the depths of the temple.

Before knowing that they were going down, Mil was curious: "Temple!"

Hriban asked very seriously: "What is God?"

The monks just answered: "God is God, an omnipotent existence."

They only know that God exists, but they don't know what God is. For them, God is more like an abstract concept, not an actual existence.

Some people imagine that gods may exist beyond this world, while others say that gods live in the kingdom of gods and will not easily come to the world.

Some people simply regard the Black King Helfas as a manifestation of gods in the world and a symbol of power.

With curiosity about gods and temples.

Mir and Heliban walked along the stairs together towards the huge pit in the dark.

The dragon monks knelt on the ground, made prayer gestures, and recited long and lengthy hymns.

It was a forbidden place for monks.

They could only stand on a high place to greet and send off, but could not enter.

After walking for a long time, Mir and Heliban finally reached the bottom.

Going further along the road, they saw a palace that was completely different from the dragon people's architectural style, magnificent and amazing to the point of being jaw-dropping.

Only a part of the palace was exposed outside, and most of it was deep in the stone and underground. There were maze-like palaces and countless tall stone pillars inside.

There were patterns and symbols that were difficult to understand everywhere.

But there are also some passages and entrances that have been artificially sealed for some unknown reason. It is obvious that it was not done by the people who built this place at the beginning, but has only appeared in the past few hundred years.

"There is a light here."

The torch was extended, and the flames spread immediately, and the whole hall became bright.

In a special hall, they also saw the evolution of dragon beasts, plants and life in their era, and saw a large number of familiar and extinct species.

"Look, there are scrolls here."

"And a place to live."

"There are various living utensils."

"In the past, we seemed to live here."

In a corner of the hall, they found manuscripts and notes left by the previous generation, the previous generation, and the original Mil and Heliban.

There are the secrets they recorded and studied about this place, which are neatly arranged.

One of them was placed on top, reminding the two to open it and read it first.

It seems to be prepared for them.

"Don't go to the top of the temple."

"Don't pry into places with special imprint symbols for a long time. It's best not to look."

"Do not record the words two, two, three, four, seven, three... the words on the stone chamber."

The first volume of manuscript I picked up was full of taboos about this place. Previous generations of Mir and Hriban seemed to have assigned a number to each room in this palace, and there were drawings on the side.

Looking at the densely written precautions and taboos, this seemingly empty palace seems to be filled with danger and death.

Even some marks and pictures that don't seem to have any power will be gradually dragged into the abyss if they are not strong enough or powerful enough.

Here, they began to learn all the knowledge and secrets about this place.

After seeing the end, they began to head towards the hidden location of the biggest known secret in this temple, which was also the place where the biggest secret of the gods and dragon people was rumored to be recorded.

"Is it down here?"

"Yes."

"Why haven't you arrived yet?"

"How far do we have to go?"

"I feel like I've entered another world."

The two of them walked down, holding torches high, until they felt as if they had penetrated the earth and entered another world.

Finally, they came to an ancient stone gate.

The moment they saw the door, the two of them felt as if something exploded in their minds.

The door was so high that the firelight could not illuminate the top, and so wide that the sight could not see the end to the left or right.

But even if it is just a torch held high, a corner of the burning light shines.

It was enough to make them feel as if they had seen a secret that definitely did not belong to the human world.

There are two doors on the left and right.

The picture engraved on it is like the kingdom of gods. It is engraved with steel giants running densely on the earth. Under the sea of ​​clouds, you can see pieces of flying objects flying in the sky, as well as densely packed objects floating in the sky. city ​​in.

One door seems to record the beginning of the wilderness. After a volcanic eruption that swallowed up the entire world, the world was reborn amidst destruction, just like the reincarnation of dragons; they even saw the dragon people coming out of a huge tank, and they began to have no eyes. Feet with a tail, then transformed into someone with scales, feet and a tail, and eventually became a draconian.

Mier stood under the door on the left, looking extremely shocked.

“Is this the kingdom of God?”

"Why are their cities floating in the sky?"

Hriban looked at the picture on the door on the right. He looked at the vat-like thing with horror and fear. It seemed to be held in someone's hand and played with.

He saw the dragon man walking out of the tank and walking towards the wild world.

"What the hell is this, a container?"

"Is it a metaphor, or does it refer to something?"

Although Hriban had already been prepared, the scene they saw still made them feel that everything they knew and the entire world had been overthrown.

"So this is the truth of the world?"

They saw the real secrets of this world, unbelievable facts.

Here, previous generations also left many manuscripts, and their analysis and research are also seen.

According to their research, the door on the left is likely to record scenes from a long time ago on this land. Dragon people are not the first intelligent life group born on this land. This is confirmed by many scenes on the right.

The door on the right records how the Dragon Man and this era came into being. A long time ago, a volcano that swallowed up the entire world erupted, submerging the previous world. And the Dragon Man and most of the life forms in this world have It was born after that volcano.

They know a lot, which is a truth that is unbelievable and even difficult for people of this era to accept.

But the previous generations of Mir and Hriban who studied this temple and everything here said this in the last long scroll given to this generation of Mir and Hriban.

"What is recorded here is only part of the truth of this world."

"And what we analyzed is just the tip of the iceberg recorded here."

"All secrets are hidden in the dust of time and history. We don't know why everything in the past was destroyed, and we don't know why we were born."

"I don't even know what the purpose of that high-altitude person is to create this place where we and life are."

They couldn't help but ask questions.

Those words contained fear originating from the depths of consciousness, but within the fear was a strong desire to explore.

"If everything was created by man."

"It's all the will of the gods who manipulate fate and the sky."

"So what's the point?"

“Where do we come from and where do we go?”

And the last paragraph of the long scroll reads.

"Find Lord Helfas."

"Perhaps only he who comes from the kingdom of gods can know the secrets of this world and know the beginning and end of everything."

They have been guarding this temple for several reincarnations, for more than 800 years.

They bear the greatest mysteries the world has ever known, and they continue to explore and study them.

They had already fallen into the obsession that belonged to the secrets of the gods, and gradually developed an incomparable desire to know all the truth.

This is clearly reflected in the manuscripts they left behind.

Even to the end of the research, the previous generations of Mir and Hriban were almost crazy.

As for this generation of Mir and Hriban, they have also studied the secrets of this place for so long.

Unknowingly, the same strong desire arose.

They have different questions, but they all lead to the same answer.

“What exactly is God?”

“Why would God destroy the world and then create it again?”

"Why did that glorious past and mythical era end? Where did they go?"

They have too many doubts and want to solve these secrets and mysteries too much.

As time passed, and as I became obsessed with these secrets, my desire deepened.

He even desires to go beyond wanting to obtain immortal power, and desires to transcend life and death.

——

Black Iron City.

It was raining heavily outside, but a group of guests arrived in this ancient black iron dragon palace.

In the spacious hall.

These people were noisy around each other on the corridor, while Mir and Hriban were standing at the end of the corridor.

These people are all in the form of gods. You can tell they are dragons at a glance because their hair color has a distinct metallic texture.

Among them are not only black iron dragons, but also bronze dragons, silver dragons and gold dragons.

They have been here for several days, surrounding Myr and Hriban, hoping that they can join their side, or test something in their words.

Test Myr and Hriban to see if the Black King has returned and entered this place.

And, is the legendary sealed book in Black Iron City?

"Maybe the Black King will come here."

"Well...he will definitely come back here."

"You have lived here for more than eight hundred years. Do you really want to have another Dragon King above your head?"

"Is the Sealed Book really not here?"

"We cannot let him take back the sealed book."

The end of the corridor.

One person tried to convince Meir and Heriban that not everyone welcomed the return of the Black King, and not all dragons wanted to have a superior Dragon King on their heads.

Some people immediately angrily expressed another idea.

"The era of the Dragon King is destined to return. We should welcome the Black Iron Dragon King to the throne, and the dragons will rule this land again."

"As a dragon, you dare to betray the Dragon King."

The man said: "The Black King is not a dragon, let alone your Dragon King."

But let these people test and quarrel as they please.

Mil and Hriban never expressed their opinions, seeming to be indifferent to everything they said.

Hriban finally said to the two of them: "We have been ordered by the Bronze Dragon King to guard the temple for generations and will not leave here. As for what happens outside, it has nothing to do with us."

"As for the temple, didn't some of you go in and see it before?"

"Last time you were so beaten that I don't know how many people came in. Maybe I can let you in this time."

Mi'er turned around at this time and looked at these people as if they were watching a show.

"Pick someone out to represent you."

If these people dare to go in, they will remove all the warnings and barriers, and then show the most dangerous parts to these guys.

Everyone stopped talking immediately and looked at others.

Of course they want to know the secrets inside, and they also want to seize the book that is rumored to record the true names of all sealed objects.

But when they heard Mir and Hriban directly inviting them into the temple, they became extremely hesitant, and everyone began to show cowering expressions.

During the last dragon war, some people did go in, but only one person came out in the end.

As for the others, they were never heard from again.

It was like being eaten out of thin air by something.

Disappeared without a trace.

The immortal dragon finally died in that temple.

They are not afraid of entering reincarnation, but if there is a force that can kill them, or even cause an outcome more terrifying than death, this makes them extremely frightened.

No matter how great the temptation below is, they are not willing to risk their lives to try it.

They had finally resisted the erosion of weirdness and madness, and carved their names on the pillars. Their greed for this power and desire to live were much stronger than ordinary people.

Everyone encouraged others to go down, but they themselves were unwilling to test it. After a few days of delay, more shocking news came from the east of the land of the full moon, making these dragon professionals unable to sit still.

Just like that, the party ended in a hurry.

One by one, the dragons left the Black Iron City and followed the avenue to the outside of the Full Moon Forest before turning into dragons and flying away.

In the Dragon Palace.

Mier and Heriban watched the dragons leave and breathed a sigh of relief.

These people came with eager eyes. Although they seemed friendly and even tried to win over them, once they were allowed to test something, or discovered something.

Perhaps, it was the outbreak of a war.

Mi'er looked at the backs of those people and couldn't help but said: "People's hearts have changed!"

Hriban: "After all, it's not the same era anymore."

And this time.

On the edge of the long Gate of the Earth, in a dark corner.

A figure stood silently on the cliff of the giant pit, looking down.

——

The seal cannot be used here, and dragons and demons cannot use extraordinary powers.

However, dragons and demons can at least reach the bottom of the deep pit by relying on their physical strength, but it is easy to touch the alarm device or trap installed below. In this way, some primitive devices in places where there is no way to use extraordinary power are more difficult to avoid.

For ordinary people, this deep pit is a completely insurmountable natural barrier.

No one in this city dared to go down. For them, the bottom was a forbidden area. There were also a lot of terrible rumors about the bottom of the deep pit in the city. It was said that there were dead dragons roaring and roaring in the deep pit.

People gradually dared not even build houses near here, and they built them dozens of meters away from the edge of the deep pit.

It seemed that if you looked inside, you would be cursed.

An empty isolation zone was formed around the tiankeng.

Later, the Black Iron City simply built a wall around here. It was not high, just to block the prying of ordinary people, and also made the residents of the city feel at ease.

Helfas stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down.

It was pitch black below, but he seemed to see a route leading down.

A long time ago.

He and another person climbed down along this route, and finally reached the bottom and entered the temple.

It was also that person who gave him courage and the lamp of cowardice.

The thing called cowardice still protects thousands of travelers on the earth today, whether on land or on the sea.

And the person who gave him courage had disappeared before the opening of civilization.

"It's really here."

He could vaguely feel a broken anchor point from the past, somewhere below.

He guessed that his past things should have been collected by the merchant in a place, and that place should be the location of his body, that is, the grave.

It was not until he got so close that he felt the faint pulling force.

Hooking his soul.

A transparent shadow walked out of Helfas' body, and his body now slumped in the corner of the long wall, hidden in it, closing his eyes as if he fell into a deep sleep.

His soul jumped down from a height, passed through the darkness, and rushed into the depths.

He reached the bottom in an instant and saw that the door of the temple was closed.

It should be that the people who are guarding and in charge here are worried that someone will break in. Once the door of the temple is closed, it is not easy for ordinary people and ordinary methods to open it.

But they probably didn't expect that someone would easily pass through it in another form.

Helfas kept moving forward along the attraction and quickly passed through the temple.

"Go down!"

He kept going down.

Finally, he actually penetrated the entrance door of the huge earth maze.

There are countless passages here, which seem to connect the earth of the whole world and lead to the deepest corner of the world.

He shuttled through the maze, but he didn't feel lost at all.

He ran straight to the edge of the force that suppressed everything, and finally found a secret stone chamber at the end of a branch in the earth maze.

The illusory body finally settled down and stopped in front of a mountain copper coffin.

The intermittent anchor connection was connected and sensed again.

But this body was dead after all, and it was impossible for him to revive in it again.

"We're here."

Helfas came back to his senses and began to observe the surroundings.

It was like a trapped earthbound spirit who had been dead for an unknown period of time, wandering around his remains.

There was a stone platform built in the stone chamber, and a mountain copper coffin was placed on the platform.

Helfas stood on the stone platform and looked down. His face and sight faintly passed through the copper coffin, and he could see a figure wearing a black iron mask lying quietly inside.

He is now looking at his past self.

The hands exposed to the outside of the skeleton had long been dry, and the gorgeous clothes had become dull.

In addition to the face of the former two-phase demon worm, his former evil-eye stone sword, parasitic bow, and black swamp pot can also be seen, placed next to his remains.

Finally.

Helfas's eyes fell on the book under his hand.

It was a book made of black steel with a ferocious dragon head on it, which was exactly what he had been looking for after traveling thousands of miles.

He just took a look and stood up to look around.

Ghost-like shadows lingered in the stone room, and what was left on the wall were all the words that the merchant wanted to tell him.

He saw the instructions he gave when he died, and also saw what the merchant did next, especially how he made the sealed book and how he made the inheritance of the black iron dragon, all of which were displayed in front of him bit by bit.

At the end of the picture, there was a paragraph.

Among them was the real name of the book, which began with his name.

"The Sealed Book of the Black King Helfas!"

"Dedicated to!"

"The one who walks across the land in the wilderness to create the future and hope, the king who challenges the weird."

After a long time, he finally saw the other party's answer to his last request.

He sat on the coffin and fell into a long silence.
