Chapter 50 Prelude to Midwinter Night I(1/2)

Terra calendar 1591.1.16.

06:30 MP.

When the night falls and the last ray of sunset on the horizon gradually fades away, the Starlight Terrace gradually lights up in the center of Whisper Square, as if a gem is set in the ocean of night.

The terrace occupies the geometric center of the square, surrounded by a square paved with exquisitely carved magic stone slabs. The magic runes on the stone slabs glow slightly in the night, adding a mysterious and ancient atmosphere to this area.

Towering buildings surround it like guardians, and the top of each building is decorated with complex sculptures and luminous magic runes. They reflect the starlight, making the entire Starlight Terrace shine with a charming light at night.

"whispering--"

Tap tap tap tap——

On such a night, a simple yet gorgeous carriage procession slowly drove into the square, becoming a beautiful sight in the center of this semi-modern hub.

The carriage pulled by four huge white horses has a retro and majestic appearance. The body is made of precious wood and metal, and the surface is engraved with exquisite patterns and runes, showing the combination of extraordinary craftsmanship and magic technology.

On the carriage, the fluttering flag was embroidered with the Dreamland Weaving House family logo, clearly marking the identity of this team.

The Dream Weaving House family, as one of the legacies of Terra's ancient [Elf Royal Court], always carries an indescribable solemn and simple charm with their appearance.

Members of this family believe in the [Seldarine Gods], which is the so-called "Elven God System".

These gods represent the elven people's deep understanding of nature and magic and their status in the Golden Court and the Realms.

"The Fellowship of Brothers and Sisters of the Trees" is the external slogan of this pantheon, which not only reflects their reverence for nature, but also reflects the spirit of cooperation and mutual assistance among family members and with believers of other elven pantheons.

One after another, participants of various races began to gather here.

A short dwarf trader, wearing a beautifully crafted wide-brimmed hat, with curiosity and anticipation for this grand ceremony, his eyes have been paying attention to the carriage of the Dream Weaving House family.

When he saw the four horses, he couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly.

"The Dreamweaver family, the heritage of the ancient Kingdom of Terra [Elf King's Court] in the past, and the watchers of [World Tree], is indeed tyrannical." The well-informed dwarf quickly recognized the arrogant and energetic family.

What type of horse pulls the carriage?

Those four horses have the blood of [Sleipnir] because they each have eight legs.

[Sleipnir] is the legendary eight-legged horse. According to ancient books, he is the mount of Odin, the defender of the World Tree.

The legendary [Sleipnis] is a gray horse with eight legs. He has the power to cross the world and reach the underworld.

There is a puzzle about [Odin] and [Sleipnir] in Terra.

"Which two have ten legs, three eyes, but only one tail."

The answer to the riddle is.

"It is Odin who rides on Sleipnir."

Although the coat color is not gray, these horses do have the blood of [Sleipnir]. These four horses are probably mixed with the blood of other horses, and the blood levels of the horses mixed with them are not low.

Able to get [Sleipnir]'s iconic gray white.

And just when the dwarf merchants were marveling at the family background of the dream weaving house where "Terra's True Yellow Flag" was born, the quaint carriage procession slowly drove into the Starlight Terrace. They formed a perfect match with the surrounding scene full of semi-modern magic atmosphere.

A sharp contrast, yet harmoniously integrated into this magical world where ancient and modern intertwined.

Inside the carriage, the space is unexpectedly spacious and luxurious, and the bright magic lights illuminate the interior of the carriage as brightly as day.

Sitting on the chair in the center is Leila Dreamweaver, the talker of the Dreamweaver family.

She has a pair of green eyes that seem to be able to see into the deepest secrets of people's hearts. Her robe is embroidered with delicate dream patterns, surrounded by a gentle aura of magic. There is an extremely gorgeous sword on her left hand.

Lyra Dreamweaver's family used to believe in ancient gods who were responsible for dreams and illusions, which gave her unparalleled abilities in manipulating and interpreting dreams.

But now they have converted to "Taslin the Shining One", who is the patron saint of swordsingers and swordsmen, a "young god" from the Golden Court.

As an adventurous and brave god, the Shiner believes that the swords and magic of the elves can win the future for the elves, and therefore encourages believers to use these to protect and expand the elves' careers.

According to the classification of the Golden Court, the Shining One is a demigod. The so-called demigods refer to those beings who possess godhood, are extremely powerful, and have power beyond most of the conventional [masters] in Terra.

.

According to the uncompleted Golden Law, after the demigods obtain enough worshipers and pay sufficient faith tax, their godhood will be successfully promoted to the lesser gods of the Golden Court.

They will be given the rules and authority of a certain plane, and these authorities will be condensed into a sacred halo (crown/virtual crown), and they will have the great power to implement authority in their own plane.

However, because their power comes from the jurisdictional plane, once they are too far away from their base camp and the signal cannot keep up, their own godhood will automatically be downgraded.

What is now Terra's official term, the Ivy War, is known in the worlds as the "Year of Turmoil."

The year of turmoil began when the origin of the God above the gods [the Golden Tree] gathered all the worlds to create the Golden Court, requiring the gods to maintain the balance between order and chaos, complete the Golden Ring, and establish the Golden Law.

for the beginning.

Generally speaking, the many realms that have been gathered together are nailed to the [Border Wedge] by the [Golden Tree], so those who own the [Border Wedge] need to pay it plane tax, faith tax and other taxes to replenish the gold.

Dharma ring.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In exchange, the [Golden Tree] gives the person who owns the [World Wedge] the authority of a plane lord.

The so-called gold supplement method can be to operate your own plane and pay more taxes to obtain the ivy correction value; it can also be to conquer everywhere, nail the [Boundary Wedge] to each plane boundary, and then go to [

[Golden Tree] or other war participants sell planes to obtain correction values; you can also obtain correction values ​​by solving various issues and tasks promulgated by [Golden Tree]...

For the gods of the Golden Court, the Ivy War is full of opportunities, because the [Golden Tree] is like a black hole that constantly absorbs free planes. At the same time, it also opens the door to Terra, allowing outsiders to look at it again.

On this main world planet full of all kinds of miracles and treasures, the gods who were driven away in the past saw the opportunity to counterattack Terra.

The Dream Weaving House family is the first wave of temptation for Terra behind the Shining One. The Shining One is a demigod, but his father is the ruler of the elves and the master of the elven gods.

If calculated according to Terra's extraordinary system, Shining One's father is the top fighting force of the pedigree, standing above many pedigree classes - the master of the pedigree.

"My Father, the Lord of the Gods", this is the most dazzling resume of the Shining One, and it is also the biggest reliance of the Dream Weaving House family now.

As a legacy of Terra [Elf King's Court], the business controlled by the Dream Weaving family is not limited to manufacturing magic items that can guide and change dreams, but also involves many rare and exotic treasures, such as the eight-legged horse pulling the cart outside.

The [Elven Court] were also the natives of Terra in the past. They are older and richer than the so-called [Elven God System] of the Golden Court. They were once the dependents of the World Tree, and their gods defended it together with [Odin].

World Tree.

Before the Kingdom of Heaven launched a supernatural war that swept across all alien races in Terra, they could proudly pat their chests and say that they were the richest and most beautiful race in Terra. They had a long lifespan, had the protection of the world, and had

With many treasures and rich knowledge...

All this beauty was destroyed by the sudden outbreak of chaos in the abyss.

Their god, their world, the great [Odin]...

All were destroyed in the explosion of the Abyss, which controlled the roaring [Jörmungandr], along the World Tree, with the incandescent sun, with the Ten Plagues covering the entire royal court, and human soldiers from other kingdoms of Terra.

, destroying everything.

Under the leadership of the Abyss, and with their fanatical flattery and concessions, humans began a war to expel the entire alien race from Terra.

Fran's Hundred Years of Dragon Slaying, the Holy Revolution in the Fog City, Berlin's Anthropological Reform, Oletin's Battle of a Hundred Cities, Deva's Whip of the Hanged King...

Under the bewitchment of the Abyss Demon, the Royal Court and its allies were destroyed. The humans who temporarily unified their direction because of their interests made all the alien races at that time feel terrified.

However, times have changed now. The embarrassed aliens are licking their wounds in the corner and all the races in the world have seen the inevitable internal disputes within human beings. What was once the Abyss is now tired of dealing with various crises in Terra.

The stars are beginning to align.

The supreme god of [Crystal Heaven] also began to stir up disputes again.

All realms gathered under the [Golden Tree] and began to overlap towards Terra, like a never-ending matryoshka doll.

Now is the time... to resist the abyss!

****

At this moment.

Lyra, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at the other people in the carriage. The relationship between her and other families was complicated, involving both cooperation and competition, but she always tried to find a path that could promote the common interests of all parties.

For example, their common enemy now is the fourth sword-wielder from the abyss...

She first looked at the person directly opposite her. Opposite her sat Eric Darkweaver, the leader of the Shadow Weaver family.

He has a mysterious appearance, with a pair of sharp eyes hidden under his short black hair. He wears a special invisibility cloak made by his family. Even in such a private space, he appears to be as elusive as a ghost.

His family is famous for its shadow magic and invisible fabric manufacturing, and there is a complex relationship that is both competitive and cooperative with the Dreamweaving House.

His family firmly believes in the power contained in the shadows and worships the gods who can guide and protect them in the darkness.

Their business revolves around the manufacture of shadow magic and invisibility fabric, which not only allows them to operate in secret, but also provides important support for the security and covert activities of the square.

Most of Eric's alliances with other families are based on information exchange and mutual benefit, but he always maintains a certain distance and caution.

Next to Eric is Bernard Fire Rock, representing the Dragon Breath Alchemy House family.

He has a thick beard and a deep luster in his eyes. The robe he is wearing is decorated with alchemical symbols, and he flips a small bottle of dragon's breath potion in his hand from time to time, as if he is ready to show off his latest research results at any time.

As the leader of the Alchemy Family, Bernard has a strong interest in the magic technology of the Dream Weaving House and the Shadow Weaver Family, and the three have collaborated many times.

The alchemical families revere powerful elemental deities associated with volcanoes, lava, and dragons.

Bernard's family specializes in alchemy using various body parts of dragons to create powerful potions and magical items. Their goal is to unlock the deep magical secrets contained in dragon breath and take alchemy to a whole new level.

And why they have the [White Dragon Army] is a question worth exploring.

And between Eric and Barna, quietly sat Esme Phantom Traveler, the representative of the Phantom Traveler Hotel family.
