Arknights is too real, right?

Some people say that protection is the most silent companionship, and companionship is the longest confession of love.

Shou represents perseverance. Regardless of the changes of the sun, the moon, and the vicissitudes of the sea, the Red Demon Sword has not shifted at all. He stands silently on the sword tomb and sticks to her.

Guard represents protection. For endless years, the Red Demon Sword has withstood the wind and sun, regardless of mosquitoes, rats, ants, birds and beasts. It has isolated all outsiders from the sword tomb and protected her.

Some people say that weapons are born for killing. They have no emotions and are just tools for killing.

But there is another saying. Weapons are born for protection. Every weapon remembers the belief of the owner and knows why the owner fights.

The Red Demon Sword interprets the word "guarding" vividly. Only when someone's belief in the blood matches it will the sword soul be recognized, just like the person who inserted it here a long, long time ago.

"boom!"

An earth-shaking loud noise came from the top of the snow-capped mountains, echoing continuously in the continuous mountains.

In the black vortex, Xia Feng looked resolute and pulled out the Red Demon Sword that his predecessors could not shake.

The lines flowing on the sword seemed to be integrated with his blood. In addition to his blood, the black power in his body could also be gathered into the Red Demon Sword just like it was running through his body.

Holding the Red Demon Sword in his hand, Xia Feng was surprised to feel the powerful power of the black power when it intersected with it. At this moment, he seemed to be standing on the top of the world looking down at everything. At the same time, he actually felt a familiar feeling.

However, this inexplicable sense of déjà vu passed by in a flash, and he broke the thousand-year protection of the [Red Demon] against the [Shenyue]. With the collapse of the sword tomb, the real guardian object was about to appear in front of him.

Then, the protruding rocks on the edge of the cliff suddenly collapsed, and a silver pillar of light rushed into the sky. This light was white and sacred, as if it was not contaminated by any impurities.

Huang Xuanshan, who was forging a sword at home, suddenly stopped what he was doing. After hearing the loud noise that shook the world, he stood up tremblingly, opened the door and walked into the yard.

When he saw the silver beam of light rising from the top of Wangyue Mountain in the distance, he was stunned for a moment. He stood in the yard and stared at the beam of light. Unknowingly, his old face was filled with tears.

On the snowy mountain.

ACE in the distance was stunned. The sacred light shone on his face without any glare, as if he was bathed in a burst of soft moonlight.

"Xia Feng?"

Xia Feng held the Red Demon Sword in his hand, lowered his head and looked at the collapsed sword tomb quietly, and then he showed a happy smile.

"Shenyue, I finally see you."

Among the collapsed rocks at his feet, a short silver-white knife lay quietly inside. The blade was crystal clear, with complex patterns floating on the handle, and soft and surging energy was spreading from it little by little.

This is the true body buried in the Sword Tomb. The stone tablet engraved with [神月] represents what is represented, and is also the guardian of the Red Demon Sword. It is the incarnation of the Moon Goddess before her demise, the Divine Moon Sword.

The silver light gradually dissipated, and Xia Feng leaned down and gently picked up the Shenyue Sword from the rubble.

The Shenyue Sword feels cold to the touch and is as light as grass. The length of the blade is less than 40 centimeters. It is a short and compact close-combat weapon. With the sky-high silver light just released, the crystal brilliance of the blade gradually dimmed and turned into a A chilling gray color.

At the same time, the familiar yet unfamiliar voice echoed in Xia Feng's mind again.

[The Shenyue Sword can absorb the energy of all things, and it can flow with the holder's mind. When the moonlight gathers, the thoughts of lamentation, it cuts off the heaven and the earth, and when the moon is full. 】

Xia Feng looked blankly at the sky. The source of this sound was nowhere to be found.

He didn't know whose voice it was, but there was no doubt that this voice was helping him understand Shenyue and the Red Demon. If it hadn't been for the reminder from this voice, he wouldn't have been able to pull out the Red Demon Sword.

The Red Demon uses blood as a sacrifice, and the Divine Moon uses moonlight as energy. This is the ancestral information that Huang Xuanshan told him before. Holding the Red Demon Sword and the Divine Moon Sword in his hands today, he knows that this information is not accurate.

The way to activate the characteristics of the Red Demon Sword is his own blood, or activation. When the sword is activated, its power will skyrocket. The most intuitive feeling is that the sword will become extremely heavy. After that, it will absorb the enemy's blood to maintain its strength. And the power of amplification, if there is no blood replenishment, it will continue to absorb the blood of the owner.

From a theoretical point of view, this is an undoubted artifact. The blood-drinking characteristic increases the limit to an infinite amount. To put it bluntly, it will become stronger and stronger as the battle time goes by.

The Shenyue Sword does not have this characteristic. According to Huang Xuanshan, the Shenyue uses moonlight as energy, but the illusory voice just now said that the Shenyue can absorb the energy of all things. If the information in the voice is correct, then this energy of all things must be include.

Xia Feng took half a step back and pointed the Shenyue Sword in his right hand at the ground.

At this time, there were still dozens of Origin Stones scattered on the ground. The Origin Stones that were close to the Sword Tomb had turned gray, while the surrounding Origin Stones still retained a certain degree of crystal clearness. Xia Feng absorbed a huge amount of Origin Stone energy during the process of drawing the sword. , but it didn't last long, and the Source Stone was not completely consumed by him.

If Shenyue can absorb the energy of all things, it should be able to absorb and store the energy of the Source Stone like Tallulah's sword.

Xia Feng gently closed his eyes and carefully felt the presence of the Shenyue Knife in his hand. As he thought, the patterns on the handle became clearer and the gray-white blade shimmered.

The Origin Stone on the ground began to tremble slightly, and then, the quality-like energy of the Origin Stone slowly rose up and merged into the Shenyue Sword like a stream.

This process was difficult for outsiders to notice. It looked like he was just standing there with a knife pointed at the Origin Stone, but as the controller, Xia Feng's eyes widened in shock at this moment.

The energy of the Source Stone can actually be absorbed by the Shenyue Sword. The blade of the blade is about one meter away from the Source Stone on the ground, but the energy in the Source Stone floats out of thin air and gathers from all directions.

1 minute later.

The Source Stone on the ground has completely lost its luster, turning as black as coal, and all the energy in it has disappeared.

Xia Feng felt that although he could not hold up his sword to absorb the huge Source Stone energy within a hundred meters like Tallulah, this characteristic was enough to excite him, and the power of the Shenyue Sword could be mobilized according to his wishes.

Unlike the domineering Red Demon Sword, the length of the Shenyue Sword is less than 40 centimeters, and the blade is extremely narrow, making it very easy to carry. In other words, he no longer needs to carry the Source Stone with him as long as he carries the sword!

At this point, he has been recognized by Shenyue and Red Demon, and has roughly mastered the characteristics and control methods of the two artifacts.

However, he still didn't quite understand the last sentence of that voice.

[The moonlight gathers, the thoughts of lamentation cut off the heaven and the earth, when the moon is full. 】
