As the game advertises, the contentious continent is a turbulent world.
The frail peace in the land of mirov is about to be broken due to the disputes between people, countries and even gods. The adventurers are going to write a new epic chapter with their own swords and shields and courage and wisdom in this land full of blood and smoke.
It sounds like you can't help but get excited, but if you really live in this world, you will feel the pressure everywhere.
Because of the increasingly frequent wars, the people who feel panic, because of the erosion of foreign chaos, and gradually become barren continent, with the black smoke gradually obscured the sky, so that the sun, moon and stars are dim, people are more and more cold, less and less warmth, Zeng Jingxiang and everything has passed away, and never return.
The so-called epic is like this: the earth is full of blood and bones, the ancient country is crumbling, and the flame of civilization is like a candle in the wind.
Of course, there are always people who can adapt to this cruel and oppressive world and live like fish in water.
Sitting on the chair in the library lounge, Joshua put down his book and looked up at the man who was talking.
"I know you."
He said calmly, "second prince, dimore diamond, I didn't expect to see you here."
And the young man at this time completely out of the shadow of the bookshelf, stood in front of the soldiers and his magic.
This is a familiar face. Joshua had seen it in newspapers about the Empire many times in his previous life. Although his face is a little young now, it can be seen that he is the second prince of the Empire and his majesty of the future northern empire.
Dimore has long shoulder length hair as dark and golden as his father's. His appearance is not outstanding, but his temperament is as sharp as a sword. He must have inherited the blood of the Royal soldier of diamond. When he heard Joshua's words, the gray brown eyes of the second emperor who was found moved slightly, which seemed a little surprised.
At this time, dimore was very simple, just a common guard uniform. Apart from the inconspicuous golden sun tattoo on his shoulder, he could not see that he was an heir to the throne. If Joshua had not known each other's identity, anyone would have mistaken him for an ordinary knight from the northwest plain.
"Do you know me?"
Originally thought that the hidden good identity was seen by Joshua, dimore could not help but subconsciously pressed the sword on his waist - he didn't want to do it, but just because of habit, the second prince said to himself with some doubts: "even those ministers have many people can't recognize me, but you can see it at a glance."
"It's natural. It's impressive."
With a shrug of his shoulders, Joshua glanced at the tough man, who would later be known for his ruthlessness.
Dimore diamond, who is perfectly adapted to this cruel and oppressive world, is different from the mediocre prince. In his heart, there is a ferocious beast.
About six years later, today's emperor, Israel Diamond, died. Suddenly, he did not leave a will. As a result, the northern empire fell into civil strife, and many princes fought mercilessly against each other in order to seize the throne.
Even in the face of such disasters as the invasion of the Dragon disaster, the huge empire, which had not been shaken, suddenly fell on the verge of collapse. The soldiers defending the country raised their spears and swords and fought with their former comrades. After a large-scale battle called March turmoil, the whole northern empire was divided into seven parts by seven princes and daughters, There are even signs of division.
In the face of the abyss that is about to invade, such actions are undoubtedly the way to death, but at this point, no one can turn the tide and reverse the situation, and the division of the Empire seems to be a foregone conclusion.
And it was dimore who changed that.
The second prince, who used to be silent and taciturn, suddenly showed his legendary strength. He made a surprise attack from thousands of miles and killed all his brothers and sisters one by one without mercy. Finally, he put on the hat symbolizing power without expression in the eyes of blood and fear, At the same time, the iron crown, which was extremely heavy because of its responsibility, was crowned emperor in the central hall of mollai palace in the holy city of three mountains.
Because of the battle against the abyss, Joshua met dimore several times in his previous life. Compared with the tough and Iron-blooded emperor who seemed to be unable to see through the abyss, the second prince now seems to be too young. Although his face has gone through many battles, his eyes are still clear and can't hide his thoughts.
——That's interesting. Joshua couldn't help thinking that. He wanted to laugh. He didn't expect that the iron emperor would look like this when he was young.And while the soldier was watching dimore, dimore was also watching the soldier.
He didn't care what Joshua had said before. Anyway, whether Joshua knew him or not, his purpose would not change.
Rather, dimore would be disappointed if the other party didn't see through his identity.
Gray brown eyes swept, the second prince carefully looked at Joshua sitting on the chair.
——This is a tall, steel cast man.
Even if the soldier sat with no expression on his face, he was as towering as a mountain. There was no fluctuation in his red eyes, but he transmitted infinite pressure, which made dimore feel like he was falling into the deep sea. He also felt that there was a glacier in front of him, cold and dangerous.
"Great."
His right hand had touched the hilt of the sword, but dimore realized that it was wrong. He immediately shook his head slightly to expel the illusion in his mind. After a moment of silence, he raised his eyebrows and said in a soft voice: "it's worthy of being a powerful soldier that my father also highly praised. Just his eyes almost let me take the initiative."
"I guess what you're here for."
Joshua leaned back in his chair. He didn't seem to want to stand up. Instead, he continued to sit in the same place and said with a relaxed smile, "think about it carefully. It's really in line with your character, but how do you know I'm coming here?"
The soldier recalled some rumors about the future emperor. Now it seems that the news was not false.
"It seems that you do know me well... But it's just a coincidence that I was in the Royal Library before I knew you were coming to master Nostradamus."
Not paying attention to Joshua's action, dimore walked slowly to the table. He looked at the soldier with his gray brown eyes. There was no fear and anxiety in his eyes, only pure curiosity and excitement: "count Radcliffe... It's the first time that I heard my father praise a soldier so much. You know, as a legendary strong man, Even the heads of the five major armies are "not bad" in his eyes. "
"You are the best."
With deliberately emphasized the best as a conclusion, dimer sat opposite Joshua, his eyes swept over Ying and Lin, and Ying and Lin also calmly looked at him, the second prince raised eyebrows and said: "is this your maid and housekeeper? Young as they are, they are determined. Do you want them to step back? "
"Don't worry, they're also the best."
Shaking his head and refusing, Joshua looked at the second prince who couldn't wait and asked with great interest: "right here? This is the Royal Library. Aren't you going to change places? "
"No problem, right here."
He took off his sword from his waist and put it on the side of the table. Dimore moved his wrist. His eyes were burning: "just finish it before the guards come. You can do it, can't you?"
"Naturally."
After hearing the words of deja vu, the soldier took a look at his opponent's Sabre from the corner of his eye. It's a common cross sword. It's well made and the leather on the handle is seriously worn. Its owner must often use it, while the scabbard is stained with blood. Judging from the quantity, its owner must wear it. It has gone through countless dangerous battlefields, The resentment of the dead entangled on it, proving the holder's Wu Xun.
——It is said that the second prince concealed his identity in his youth, joined the army of the western plain, and fought with the green orcs for several years. It was not until the orc court was completely burned down that he returned to the imperial capital. Now it seems that the news is true.
Moreover, it is said that he likes to challenge the strong. Brandon, the sword of the Empire in the future, is often dragged to duel by him in the name of investigation. Dimore even has the nickname "duel king".
Now, is his action purely competitive?
No, it's mixed with something else.
"Then, as you wish."
Don't bother to think so much, Joshua laughed. He swept the books on the table aside, and then put his arms together. The red fighting spirit condensed, and the heroic voice of the soldiers echoed in the hall.
"Dimore, I allow you to challenge me."
