Chapter 14 The Power of Inheritance
"Master, this is..."
Unlike the knowledgeable Joshua, Firefly had never seen such a strange scene. In front of her, a dark blue light supported a door. Behind it was a blurry black earth and a distant pale sky. Countless gray stone tombstones and damaged weapons were erected in silence. Apart from the blue glow, there was still the dusty old church. The two were clearly separated and did not affect each other.
In a vague sense, she felt a sense of familiarity passing through the space and coming from those weapons. This kind of intimacy made the Miss Shenji step forward and want to touch the blue light.
"It's the time and space gate."
He stretched out his hand and pulled the silver-haired girl back. Joshua rubbed her little head, and then added another sentence to the other party's puzzled little eyes: "The space-time gate leading to a narrow path of time and space is now sealed by some kind of force, and you will be injured when you touch it."
Looking at the dark blue door, the warrior now had a clear feeling. Behind the sealed portal, where the family cemetery was located, there was a force calling him, just as the body felt when attending the funeral of his grandfather in this small chapel. Such a deep impression made him unable to forget it for a long time, and he can still recall it clearly today.
It was a resonance of blood, as if the blood in the body was about to boil.
But Joshua forced the resonance in his body, and the memory always went wrong. In the warrior's memory, his grandfather was buried in a cemetery around the church, but in fact it should be behind the time and space gate.
He calmly observed the blue door in front of him.
"This is the twelve-fulvement space-time gate developed by the Far South Mage Association and the great mentor Shiwenboer. It requires three golden mages of level 40 or above to establish it. However, although the initial magic consumes a huge amount, the victory lies in stability. If you choose the position well, it can even last for more than ten years."
With his eyes swept over, the former legendary warrior quickly saw the ins and outs of the teleportation channel in front of him. With the support of rich experience, more than twenty methods of quickly destroying it appeared in his mind, and his hands were even ready to move: "The design looks a bit outdated, but it should be considered the latest technology in this era. I used this not this when I was a child. When did it be updated?"
It should be his time in the army.
Thinking of this, Joshua shook his head and couldn't help but feel that the old count who died silently left was so free and easy. Without the previous generation of heads of the family, even if he had accepted the information contained in the altar, he still had many things that were not clear about, such as why the family cemetery was built in the narrow path of time and space, and what was the sealing power in the church.
The narrow path of time and space is a unique field between the world and the world. They are big and small, and are different. They are named because most of their existence are in a narrow gap between two worlds. If some narrow paths of time and space are very stable and exist for a long enough time, they can even produce soil and sky, and there will be unique life existence, just like a real small world.
In the late stage of the disputed continent in the previous life, many high-level bosses and forces had their own narrow passages of time and space, and many copies and battles were carried out in it. The most famous of them is the [Ancient Sacrifice Field connecting all worlds] at the entrance to the void of the astral realm. This passage located between multiple worlds has even been vast and stable enough to be called a new world.
At that time, in order to block the retreat of monsters or destroy the possibility of enemy raids, almost everyone had to learn how to quickly destroy various time and space gates and teleportation omens. Therefore, Joshua was so familiar with various teleportation channels and had the occupational disease that he wanted to destroy when he saw the Blue Gate.
Everyone is responsible for interrupting the teleportation.
But these are not important things. After dealing with the information granted by the altar in my mind, the warrior immediately knew how to pass through this time and space gate.
"Just sacrifice the bloodline of the Radcliffe family on the altar, or part of the Divine Mechanic body, it can pass smoothly...easy."
Joshua simply bit out a small wound on his finger with his teeth. The black and red blood dripped into the center of the stone altar and then quickly penetrated. With his current physical strength, except for his teeth, the knife and other objects he carried with him could no longer cut through his surface.
A few seconds later, with the fluctuations of magic power, the seal hidden in the time and space gate was lifted. After the dark blue light, the originally blurred earth and sky suddenly became clear, and the ethereal and distant feeling completely disappeared.
Joshua did not hesitate and immediately crossed the time and space gate, and Firefly followed closely behind.
When passing through the dark blue door, Joshua felt a dizzy feeling, but he had been used to teleportation in his previous life and quickly recovered his balance. He even had the strength to reach out and hug the firefly that almost fell down and kneeled on the ground.
Standing on the black soil, letting go of the silver-haired girl who had recovered her balance, breathing a completely different air from the original world. Joshua looked around the narrow world behind this teleportation channel. Its diameter was about 1,200 meters. It could clearly see the chaotic light film at its edge. It seemed to contain everything, but the blurred luster that was not a color was flowing on it.
"Father, and Fan should be here."
He said softly, Joshua recalled the cloudy day two months ago, when heavy snow had just fallen, and the wind blowing from the everlasting ice layer in the vast sea in the vast north was not so cold. Before the main city of Moldavia, the white-haired old man smiled and said goodbye to him, then left in the distance, disappearing to the other end of the horizon.
Now, is he here?
There were all kinds of gray stone tombstones in front of me, about forty or fifty, which had exceeded the number of heads of family in history. Joshua slowly approached his nearest grave and wanted to see the inscribed on it.
A broken spear was placed in front of the square stone tablet, and a row of simple words were carved on the smooth surface of the monument, but it seemed that it had become blurred because of its age. In order to see clearly what was written on it, Qiao Xiuya walked over slowly and touched it with his hand. A cold touch came, but also brushed away the dust that had settled on it.
——Shimos Radcliff-541~574
——Shenji Luo-541~574
[The knight's life is galloping by and gives a cold glance at death.]
After a moment of silence, the soldier turned to look at the other adjacent graves.
The scimitar with a broken blade was inserted into the soil, and the handle of the knife was filled with black blood scabs that had been solidified for unknown amounts.
——Altman Radcliffe-692~743
——Shenji·Ya-692~743
[Before dawn, thirteen dark tides and twelve victories.]
A huge crevicle-breaking tower shield was broken from the center and leaned against the grave.
——Ivan Radcliff-479~517
——Shenji·An-479~517
【Death is not meaningless, at least it brings the dawn of success.】
Walking before many stone tablets, some have inscribeds, some have not, and some even carved the master's life, densely packed and unable to see clearly. However, no matter who his tombstone was, Joshua had sincere respect for these ancestors in his heart.
From the years of birth and death and the inscriptions on the inscription, we can see that all the people buried here died in battle. None of them had a good ending. On average, it took about 40 years to replace each generation, and some even died in the family at the same time.
Hundreds of years ago, in order to guard the space-time passage, the ancestors of the Radcliffe family came to this cold ice field and opened up the frontier of civilization. They built cities, built forts, and used gray-white fortresses to divide the mountains and Hessen, and used flesh and blood to block the tide of thousands of beasts galloping like raging waves to invade the world of humanity.
Under their leadership, countless passionate warriors guarded this frontier far away from civilization, either for glory or for duty. Some people returned home with honor, but more of them left a cold body buried by their families and comrades.
Sacrifice has always been worthy of respect.
"Master, come and have a look..."
Joshua heard a sound of his divine machine at a loss not far away.
He turned around and found the silver-haired girl standing in front of an obelisk carved from rocks, blinking her green eyes and staring at it with confused eyes.
I noticed the warrior walking quickly. The young lady Shenji opened her mouth slightly, but didn't know where to start. She just pointed to a huge, huge sword like a door panel inserted down beside the tombstone, and then said softly: "Is this a mortal?"
When he walked to Ying's side, Joshua took a deep breath when he saw the black gold-patterned giant sword for the first time. He frowned and then showed a bitter smile that he couldn't tell what it was.
“…Ah, yes, yes.”
Sure enough, here.
The giant sword machine with black gold pattern was quietly inserted into the black soil, and there were some shattering marks on the cold steel blade. As a former legendary warrior, Joshua could see that the core supporting the sword had been completely shattered. Not to mention using it, just wave it again, he might completely shatter.
Not daring to touch it, Joshua looked up at the tombstone next to him, and a familiar name was engraved on it.
——Berouo Radcliff-785~831
This is the father's name.
The warrior finally found his father's grave.
This long epitaph is carved on this hard rock tombstone.
[Maybe one day, civilization and order can transform the world into a more suitable form of survival, but it is not today. Before that, someone must stand up and fight and then sacrifice.]
This gray obelisk looks like it has been carved in recent years. Unlike other old tombstones, there is a wrinkled piece of paper placed in front of it, and something seems to be wrapped in it.
He bent down and reached out to pick up the paper ball. Joshua unfolded it and found two sloppy words on it, and a blue gem rolled out from it and fell on the palm of his right hand.
The warrior looked at the note first.
‘For my son, Joshua Radcliffe.’
‘I believe you can come here…I hope you can grasp the power of this inheritance.’
"Although I'm obviously dead, I'm so confident in me... But, the power of inheritance?"
He said in confusion, and Joshua looked at the gem in his right hand, and his red pupils shrank slightly: "Is it this?"
He picked up the cyan gem the size of a thumb and looked at it carefully.
This inconspicuous gem is not gorgeous. It is easy to ignore it as a stone of the same color at first glance, but as long as you focus and carefully, you can find that there is a blue-colored blue color, and the clouds and mist like galaxies are spinning endlessly.
Joshua tried to hold it.
Then, the moment he held the gem tightly, a strange feeling like electric current spread from his palm and spread to his whole body. A huge prompt box suddenly appeared in front of the warrior's retina, and the red bold words filled the entire field of view.
The long-lost system prompt appeared in front of Joshua.
[You have obtained the Original Strange Object and Special Inauguration Props - the Sky Blue Orb of the Seal Guardian.]
[You passed the will judgment! You passed the camp judgment! You passed the qualification judgment!]
