Pirate Kingship

[The Sword in the Stone] is also the "Sword of the Chosen King" of the Channel Islands. When Byron held it, the golden aura on his body shone to the extreme.

Holding it is like holding a sun.

After being unsealed, the Sword in the Stone seems to have lost its form, leaving only a conceptual existence that can change its form at will.

Zheng——!

Centered on Yuanwang Port, which had just begun construction, all the swords within a radius of 100 kilometers trembled together, as if to express their submission to this holy sword that symbolized royal power.

The legal network extending from the other side of the Sea of ​​Monsters around him was also linked to this weapon layer by layer, tightly binding this sword to Byron.

"breathe-"

The breathing between the man and the sword is in sync.

Byron's chest rises and falls at the same frequency as the sword in the stone that extinguishes the light. In the blink of an eye, this mythical holy sword became the first "dragon" he tamed after being promoted to the fifth level as the [Storm King]!

The next second, more information contained in The Sword in the Stone was opened to him.

At the beginning, there was no Sword in the Stone in the world, only the "Sword in the Tree" belonging to the Bay People's God-King [God of Prophecy, Kingship and Wild Hunt] Woden.

The sword in the tree is the [royal power] given by Woden to the human monarch, symbolizing victory, glory and oath.

Later, the sword broke in a divine battle, and was recast by human craftsmen into the "Sword in the Stone", giving it the symbol of mankind's earliest metallurgical creation.

It traveled across the world in the age of myth and left eternal legends.

Not only has the name "The Sword in the Stone" not faded over time, but its legend has become more and more popular.

Every praise in the people's mouth is a test of it.

After a full fifteen hundred years of tempering, it has been integrated with the channels of the Channel Islands and even the North Sea. It has the authority of both people and earth, and has become even more powerful than the mythical age.

It has even become an important anchor for the collective subconscious sea of ​​all countries and ethnic groups around the North Sea, and even the most orthodox [Kingdom] itself.

At this point, it is no longer appropriate to say that it is a zero-level holy relic cast by a human or a god king.

Now the Sword in the Stone has become a sincere prayer for the great king and the guardian of the people for all human groups around Beihai for thousands of years!

At least a [Crown] beyond the ordinary king's title is needed to match it.

One of Byron's main purposes in coming to the Corridor of Truth is to retrieve his father-in-law and the "Pirate Code" to promote the upgrade of the North Sea Empire and to gather the [Crown] to obtain the qualifications to pull out the Sword in the Stone.

Add another bit of capital to cope with the arrival of the Luoyan era.

However, the arrival of Lancelot, the traitor to Camelot in the Age of Mythology, was obviously an unexpected surprise for them.

It was precisely because of Lancelot, the traitor, that the destiny represented by the Knight King and the Sword in the Stone in the previous era came to an abrupt end, and the Sword in the Stone was never pulled out by anyone again.

This time they avenged the Sword in the Stone and the King of Knights by mistake.

Use the genuine Lancelot's sword [Eternal Lake Light] to complete the Sword in the Stone, and at the same time resolve the regret of the destruction of Camelot in the mythical era.

Even though Byron has not yet met the hard requirement of owning the [Crown], he has initially obtained the most basic qualifications to use it by relying on the backdoor opened by the Sword in the Stone.

"When I was in the Pantheon, I heard the two old gods talking about the resurrected Lancelot and Joan of Arc, and I was already on guard against them.

I didn't expect that it would unfold in this way in the end. What a nice guy! "

Byron is holding the invisible light holy sword in his hand. He has not chanted the epic yet, but he can clearly feel that his anchor has been strengthened again. Even the "Inverted Tree" emblem on his arm is gradually becoming a little crooked. was readjusted.

I couldn't help but recall the "God Hunting Plan" that I had secretly discussed with the top wizards of the Fairy Tale Town school last night.

"Even when I went to explore the divine kingdom of [Venus Goddess] Ishtar, I asked the 'rape' and the dancer Salome to take the chestnuts out of the fire for me.

Whether you want to serve as a foreign aid for the Fairy Tale Town school and explore the divine kingdom of God King Horus in person will naturally require you to assess the risks.

Although the things are good, even [Sedge River Snake] and [Queen Marie] have to summon many schools to work together. Obviously, even she is not completely sure, and the risk is not small. "

At this time, he was holding the intact [Level Zero Holy Relic: The Sword in the Stone], feeling unprecedentedly confident in his heart:

“This can be done!

I did have a few zero-level holy relics in my hands before.

However, things like [Whale Oil Steam Engine], [Whale Oil Powered Mechanical Computer], [Huashan Heavenly Kingdom Sun Stone Calendar], and the incomplete [Key to Omniscient] mainly focus on logistics or assistance.

There is not a single weapon-type zero-level holy relic that can truly be used to defeat the enemy.

On the other hand, all weird and evil spirits always have the 'accidental spell' in them, which will definitely lead the development of things in a worse direction.

Even with a large number of people, it is difficult to avoid irresistible accidents.

What's more, even the weakest old gods are indescribable existences, and there is an insurmountable essential gap between them and us false gods.

What the wizards are trying to seize this time is the [priesthood] of the ancient god-king Horus. If nothing else, an accident will definitely happen.

With the Sword in the Stone and the [Twelve Round Table Resolutions], the risk has been reduced to a controllable level. "

At this moment, a roar from the sea suddenly interrupted Byron's thoughts.

"Eternal Lake Light! Where did you take my sword?!"

Reason told Lancelot that the most correct choice for him now was to take the opportunity to slip away.

But [Eternal Lake Light] is not only his weapon, but also the mythical basis for his birth.

If it hadn't been for the existence of this holy relic, his activated knowledge would never have been born.

This is one of his most important anchors, and its significance is extraordinary.

Although their activated knowledge has been converted to the deep sea, once they lose their anchor and fall back into selfless monsters or evil spirits, this is their only fate.

Worse than death.

After the failure to steal [Queen Marie] last night, today not only failed to steal the Queen of the Bay People, but also lost his own eternal lake light. Lancelot's body was shaking violently.

Before Byron could answer, Bruch on the other side had already recovered from his injuries and drove the fairy horse to continue rushing towards him.

The swamp giant who cut off one of his arms was also on fire and joined the siege. He held a flaming dagger in his six arms and set off a blue flame storm.

The other officers who arrived later were also rushing around, especially [Phantom Blade] Gus, who raised his hand and threw a silver-white decapitation sword towards Lancelot.

This is not funding the enemy.

Soldiers who followed Byron and participated in the War of Thieves all know that it was the second-level cursed object [Louisette Guillotine] that once belonged to [Kingmaker] Warwick:

"On the surface it looks like a giant two-handed heavy sword, like a huge silver cross.

In essence, it is a weapon and torture device that can change into a hundred forms.

As the only torture instrument in the Old World that has publicly executed a king, it has become a cursed object and has extraordinary legend.

Effect: [Regicide]!

For the special attack on the king, as long as the injury reaches the level of severed limbs, a king can be killed with one sword.

Side effects: The weapon hinders the owner, and the user will one day be beheaded by the guillotine. "

Lancelot, the knight of the lake, was the son of King Ban and Elaine during his lifetime. He was a prince in his own right. Now he has his own country after his resurrection.

It fully meets the special attack conditions of this weapon.

The moment the cross-decapitating sword approached Lancelot, it turned into a miniature guillotine in the air.

But it has become too mini, and the small hole will never fit an adult head.

While the others were deep in thought, [Honest Man] Ba Zhi, who was standing next to Gus, was still an honest man after all, and asked in confusion:

"Why is this hole so small? It seems like it can't be used to decapitate it, right?"

But I saw Gus with a bad smile on his face:

"Hehehe, the big head will definitely not fit in, but if the small head is put in,"

hiss--!

A group of people nearby looked at the mini guillotine and couldn't help but gasp. The men even felt a slight chill somewhere.

At the same time, the mini guillotine had already rushed in front of Lancelot, who was surrounded by Bruch and the mire giant, and went straight to the next three routes.

The latter also reacted, and the hair on his back exploded.

"etc!"

The guillotine ignored him and just "clicked" towards him.

"Ouch——! Despicable!"

Although Lancelot hid quickly and used a [Lake Reflection] as a "substitute" for his body, he was still scared into a cold sweat.

Gus accepted the other party's appreciation with a smile:

"We, the Stormcloaks, are not a tribunal and have discretion in sentencing criminals.

Therefore, my sentence against you is the physical confiscation of the criminal tools! "

Jacqueline, Delia and other girls in the team spat lightly and turned and left.

In their minds, from the moment Byron rushed back in time, there was no suspense in this battle, and there was no need for them to step in to help.

but.

[Knight of the Lake] Lancelot claimed to have the qualifications and strength to rival the King of Knights during his lifetime.

After being resurrected as activated knowledge, he can still roam in places like the Corridor of Truth for hundreds of years, and obtain his own country. There are still two ways to do it.

After several attempts, he couldn't break out of the encirclement, and he almost had his crime tools confiscated several times, which made him angry.

He looked at Byron who was holding the [Sword in the Stone] and eyeing him.

Decisively revealed the last trump card.

The black light flashed in the palm of the remaining left hand, which embodied a long sword that was almost exactly the same as the Sword in the Stone, but with black and red as the main colors.

A pair of curved black horns also sprouted from his forehead.

The ominous aura spread rapidly from the sword, and even the legal network that originally shrouded it subconsciously avoided it, revealing a huge vacuum zone.

The right hands of Bruch, Gus and other kings who had been blessed by the law also noticed that the power of blessings on them suddenly dissipated, and they immediately retreated.

Looking at the sword, I couldn't help but be surprised:

"What's going on? The law is actually afraid?"

Lancelot seemed to have gained courage again from this sword. He raised his sword and pointed it at Byron in the sky. His sarcastic voice spread to the entire Port of Farview:

“Do you know where the earliest ‘tauren’ in the world came from?

It was the Minotaur who was born to Pasiphae, wife of King Minos of Crete, and a Cretan bull under the Jupiter god system during the ancient Silver Empire.

After Minos became the new king of Crete, he prayed to the King of the Sea for a miracle to justify his usurpation of power.

So Neptune gave Minos a beautiful white bull and asked him to sacrifice it to him.

But the bull was so beautiful that Minos finally killed another bull as a sacrifice.

The angry Sea King cursed Minos' wife Pasiphia, causing her to suffer from zoophilia.

In order to cover up his ugly appearance, Minos asked Daedalus to make a wooden cow for Pasiphi and hide her in it.

However, the model was too realistic, and the white bull took a fancy to the cow and mated with her.

Pasiphi became pregnant and gave birth to the Minotaur, the bull of Minos.

But what is the real story behind the myth? "

Lancelot's eyes flashed red, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

“Since the King of Crete was asked to sacrifice, why did the King of the Sea personally prepare the sacrifice?

No matter how beautiful the cow was, why would Minos, the majestic king of Crete and the son of the god-king Jupiter, be reluctant to part with it?

Because the white bull is the symbol of Cretan kingship!

Sacrificing the bull meant sacrificing his own country. How could Minos agree to such a request from the King of the Sea? This resulted in his own queen being defiled by a bull.

Therefore, the queen herself is one of the core of national power and an important component of royal power.

I once stole the heart of Queen Guinevere of Camelot, and by getting my hands on the royal power represented by the queen, I caused the collapse of the twelve Knights of the Round Table, the fall of the King of Knights, and the demise of the country.

Finally, I obtained this [Sword of Devouring King Power]!

As long as the queen of the Tauren countries can swallow up part of the royal power of the countries to a certain extent, the more queens are taken away, the stronger the power of this sword will be.

In the age of mythology, gods ruled mankind. Although the King of Knights possesses the blood of the red dragon, he is essentially just a mortal.

The sword of royal power he left behind was not the sword left by the gods. Now, fifteen hundred years after the seal, how much power does it still have left?

Kneel down, only I, Lancelot, am worthy to stand in heaven! "

Buzz—!

The pitch-black [Sword of Swallowing Kingship] trembled, and behind Lancelot appeared the silhouettes of beautiful women wearing golden crowns in two rows, dozens of them in total.

Here are all the queens he has collected over the centuries, still bound by his sword even in death.

Lancelot's aura also skyrocketed.

Suddenly, the body and sword merged into one, and a black hole-like sword light shot up into the sky, directly hitting Byron who was sitting on the horse.

Byron had a lot of time to spare:

“I heard [Alibaba] say that when we were guests in the Desert Empire last night, you should be the one who sneaked into the palace and tried to steal [Queen Marie] Cleopatra VII, right?

No one recognizes you just because you switched to the face of a certain Oath Knight.

If you really steal the royal power of the Desert Empire, it will really be a bit troublesome for me.

In order to thank you for traveling all the way to send me [Eternal Lake Light], I finally pulled out the Sword in the Stone.

Let you see with your own eyes what the zero-level holy relic is like when it is unsealed. "

As he spoke, he raised the holy sword high above his head, and one of the powers on his body, [Kingdom], roared together, and the divine aura filled the world.

The epic chants from his mouth resounded throughout the world:

"The stars of humanity shine brightly, and heroes sing tragic songs, connecting the past, present and future. The ideals of all the heroic dead are all on my shoulders.

The ever-victorious king pronounced the true name of the miracle: The Thirteen were liberated, and the round table decision began! "

After chanting word by word, miraculously it was faster than Lancelot's sword swing.

call--!

With Byron and the Sword in the Stone at the center, golden light flashed, and a total of twelve powerful illusory figures surrounded them, standing with swords in hand, clasping their chests and bowing their heads.

The only ability of the zero-level holy relic [The Sword in the Stone] is: activate the Twelve Round Table Resolutions.

The atmosphere above the estuary stagnated, and all the spectators opened their mouths.

Byron clearly felt that the King of Knights and the Twelve Knights of the Round Table formulated thirteen restraining seals to restrict the [Sword in the Stone]:

"First, this is a battle to save the world - the King of Knights; second, we have to fight for survival - Kai; third, we have to fight against someone stronger than ourselves - Bedivere;

Fourth, it must be a one-on-one battle - Palamedes; Fifth, it must not go against humanity - Gaheris; Sixth, it must be fought for the pursuit of truth - Agaguiwen;

Seventh, you must not be enemies with the elves - Lancelot; Eighth, you must fight against evil - Mordred; Nine, you must not fight for selfish desires - Galahad;

10. It must be a battle of honor; 11. It must be fought with brave men; 12. It must not be an enemy of good people.

Among the above twelve conditions, [Sun Knight] Gawain does not appear, because the thirteenth binding condition is to always support and support all the king's decisions. "

Each time the thirteen restraints are lifted, the power that can be released increases.

When the holder of the Holy Sword wants to exert its maximum power, a vote of all the Knights of the Round Table is required.

When the number of votes in favor reaches seven, that is, when seven conditions are met at the same time, the strongest power of the Holy Sword can be released.

Now Byron has not yet been fully recognized by the Holy Sword, but is only qualified to use it by chance.

Only Gawain's binding conditions: "Always support and support all the king's decisions." and the Knight King's own "This is a battle to save the world" can be used to liberate the most basic power of the sword in the stone.

Even if other conditions are met, there is no way to further unblock it.

Byron looked solemn:

"Two layers are enough.

Remove the first layer of restraint!"

Although the Sword in the Stone is still in the shape of a sword, after being forged for an entire Silver Age, the essence of its power has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the beginning.

With the release of the first layer of restraint, its current essence is immediately revealed-a golden anchor that is larger than the configuration of a first-class battleship!

-The storm anchor that tears the sky and connects the earth is also the anchoring embodiment of the collective subconscious sea of ​​the entire human beings in the North Sea.

Byron's muscles bulged, and he shouted loudly, grabbing the giant anchor with one hand, and swung it fiercely towards the dark sword light of the [Sword of Swallowing Kingship] on the opposite side.

"Die!"

Boom! ! !

The dazzling huge cross light mark suddenly tore the entire sky, and the world was white. The onlookers all covered their eyes involuntarily.

In the blink of an eye, only a shrill scream pierced the eardrums.

"No--!"

The black sword light only lasted for a moment before it collapsed.

The moment Lancelot was pierced through by the anchor, his body, soul, and even the essence of his existence quickly melted away in the golden light.

On the other hand, the [Golden Law] that was originally forced back by the sword light gathered again, and grew rapidly as if it had taken a tonic pill, making up for its weak foundation that had only been born for a few years.

Crash.

The tide in the sea of ​​human collective subconsciousness surged, allowing everyone to clearly feel the joy and satisfaction in it.

This sea of ​​the mind is divided into three parts: consciousness, individual unconsciousness, and collective unconsciousness.

If the inner world of all human beings is regarded as a large island on the sea.

Then the land above the water represents the awakened part of human individual consciousness, which can be reached even by ordinary people. It is here when we live in daily life and have lucid dreams;

The underwater land part exposed by tidal movement represents the individual personal unconsciousness. Everything a person sees and hears in his life is accumulated here and has never been discarded;

And the seabed that all islands ultimately use as their foundation is a nation, a group, a country, which is the collective unconsciousness of all human beings.

From high to low, it means that the human spiritual world moves from the individual to the collective, from individuality to commonality.

Until reaching the collective unconscious, that is, the countless similar experiences passed down from generation to generation, the psychological sediment of all members of the human race, the extraordinary people of the tower sequence often go to dig ancient treasures.

At this moment, the [Sword in the Stone] not only releases huge energy at the physical level, but can even directly cut off all anchors on the other party at the rule level.

That is to break the boundary between "self" and "external", and completely smash an "island" on the sea of ​​collective subconsciousness.

Let the individual's existence return to the collective.

Byron has a hunch that this anchor can even break the existence outside the closed system of the world and integrate it into the material world under his feet.

In other words, it is possible to let the world devour the nutrients of the outside world to achieve "reverse entropy", and to a certain extent reverse the trend of the whole world sliding into the deep sea and falling into madness!

At the same time, the [Destiny] of the Level 0 Holy Relic also emerged in Byron's heart:

"The Great Flood is a painful memory shared by all mankind.

The new [Sword in the Stone] was born from the wishes of countless humans, and eventually grew into an anchor that stabilizes the world and prevents the homeland from continuing to decline.

The holder of the sword can only live and die with the whole world, and there is no possibility of abandoning the tribe and escaping alone."

As Byron fed back the essence of Lancelot's existence to the world, he found that his share of this world also increased.

The realm of "All Things Return to One" jumped from the original 3% to 4.6% in an instant.

Byron was pleasantly surprised and realized the true meaning of this Level 0 Holy Relic.

"Escape? This is my world. I won't leave even if you drive me away!"

When the light faded, Lancelot's body had completely disappeared, leaving only half of his head that was still dissipating and fell to the ground.

"Bruch!"

The loyal guardian knight immediately waved the [Holy Sword of the Sun], and the sword flew up and completely melted his head.

The shadow of the third knight emerged from the contracted heroic spirits behind him, finally breaking the ancient curse on the sworn knights.

It also cleared the obstacles for Bruch to be promoted to legend.

Then, the sword in the stone flashed with golden light and automatically drilled into Byron's body.

The [Dragon Slayer Sword·Reinhard] that had been staying in Byron's body was rejected and fell to the ground, bouncing twice on the ground like a dead fish.

This dragon slayer sword recast by the pirate emperor [Blue Dragon King] Reinhard is itself a replica of the sword in the stone.

With the return of the real owner, it is natural to stage a tragic comedy of the rich family "The White Moonlight Returns, and the Substitute is Sweeped Out".

Byron's body also naturally became the new scabbard of the [Sword in the Stone].

It is said that the value of the "scabbard" is far greater than the sword. After coming to the Corridor of Truth, it is unknown whether the sheath that has been lost for many years can be revived in Byron.

Of course, whether it is revived or not.

As long as the [Crown] falls on his head, the Sword in the Stone will be completely unsealed and become a rare complete zero-level holy relic in the entire material world!
