Chapter 93 The Great Prophecy (Part I)

Chapter 93 The Great Prophecy (Part I)

The Evil Face Spider Queen is still crawling hard, unlike the previous demon wolf mount, this giant spider is more like a bulldozer in the snowy forest, any big tree that blocks the way in front, it wields a thick, sickle-like sharp arm, and can cut off a large tree with a click, or directly hit it, and immediately hit a road.

This kind of evil spider is accustomed to living in underground ice, even in the hard cold ice can drill around, not to mention these trees?

The old magician was obsessed with the past, his expression was gloomy, standing on the back of the spider, and he did not speak again for a long time.

Finally, this time it was not Du Wei who asked questions.

"And then? What happened next? The

one who asked the question was Queen Medusa, who had been silently listening to the story.

With a hint of curiosity on her face, this indifferent woman asked in a calm tone: "Excuse me, what happened next?"

Du Wei was a little surprised, and couldn't help but glance at Medusa, who was very calm: "I'm just curious." Isn't curiosity also unique to humans? This is also a kind of human nature, right?

"You want to keep listening to the story too?" The old magician smiled strangely: "Wise Queen Medusa, with your wisdom, you should understand that listening to these stories may not be good for you."

"I was born and raised." Medusa said coldly: "What you said about gods or temples, it doesn't mean anything to me."

"Okay then." The old magician laughed, and then his tone was low: "Anyway, these are also mentioned in the prophecy, and this matter should also have your share."

Shaking his head, the old magician straightened his wind-blown hat, and then pointed into the distance. Laughing: "Here, just ahead, in about another day, we will be able to get out of this forest!" From ancient times to the present, there are few in the whole continent that can pass through the frozen forest and come to the northern end of the forest!

"As far as I know, it's currently documented. The farthest in the frozen forest was a magician named Az from the imperial capital twenty years ago, who led a group of knights to the canyon we had passed before. Du Wei said lightly.

"Well, that's right. It was indeed Az, the cunning boy. The old magician sneered: "But two hundred years ago, I had already crossed the frozen forest and came to the north side of the forest!" Walking with me was Semel. We entered the forest together, crossed the Great Round Lake, walked through the forest, came all the way here, and continued north. Finally reached the destination... That was the last time I saw Sammel, the last time she promised to help me!

"What's on the north side of the frozen forest?" Du Wei smiled: "Is it hell? The

old magician did not smile, he took a deep look at Du Wei, then turned and sat down. After feeling in his arms for a while, he felt out a piece of parchment.

He did not hurry to open the parchment, but first cast a small windproof spell, and then slowly unfolded the parchment on his knees.

It was a ragged parchment roll that would shatter almost at any moment, soaked in some unknown antiseptic potion, and the original local color could no longer be seen. The edge of the parchment roll also has some tooth-like threads that seem to have been gnawed by mice, and the top is twisted and twisted. A few lines of odd handwriting.

The handwriting is red, bright red and red, and I don't know what kind of pigment it is, but after so many years, it has not faded, which makes Du Wei a little strange.

As if seeing Du Wei's doubts, the old magician smiled lightly: "This is written in blood... Written in the blood of Aragon himself, with a magical imprint. Even if it's another thousand years. It won't fade. This is the clue that I found with a lot of effort in a secret room in the imperial palace. Coupled with the clues found in the top-secret documents sealed by the temple, and finally found in the grave of a small nobleman who has been in decline for many years, Aragon himself left a suicide note before his death..."

"Declining little nobles?" The place where the question was asked was Hussein. This knight, who came from a humble background since childhood, was raised by the temple and was not very clear about the imperial royal family: "How could Aragon's suicide note be in the grave of a fallen small nobleman?"

The old magician glanced at Du Wei.

Du Wei sighed, he was educated by an aristocrat, and he had been cold-eyed since childhood, and most of his time was spent living alone and reading books, and the erudition in his chest was more famous than any scholar in the empire.

He thought for a moment and explained to the knight:

The Roland Empire was founded for nearly a thousand years, and after the death of His Majesty Aragon, the founding emperor of the country a thousand years ago, the throne passed to Aragon's second son, and then His Majesty the Second Emperor died of illness after fourteen years of reign, and then passed to his eldest son again... After nearly a thousand years of imperial royal inheritance, in fact, by about four hundred years of the empire, those who ascended the throne could no longer be regarded as the descendants of His Majesty Aragon.

About four hundred years after the founding of the empire, when Aragon's descendants, a short-lived emperor, died, he didn't leave a son, and the royal Roland family Aragon couldn't find a suitable heir to the throne!

The emperor who finally succeeded to the throne could no longer be regarded as a descendant of Aragorn in strict terms, but if traced, he should be regarded as the descendant of Aragorn himself's brother.

Historically, at that time, historians believe that the true descendants of Aragon have been severed from that time. There is a narrative in the history books about this event, called the end of the "Thorn Flower Dynasty" (the Thorn Flower Dynasty, considered to be the dynasty dominated by the descendants of the orthodox Aragon), also known as the "Age of withered blood".

After that, the descendants of Aragon's own brothers held the throne, known as the "Glorious Dynasty", but after about two hundred years of existence, the dynasty began to decline, followed by a serious crisis (mentioned earlier, the era of the rise of the Rollin family of Duvey), and the alien rebellion in the northwest. Although the empire did not really collapse, the crisis almost caused the empire to die.

Fortunately, at that time, after some turmoil in the royal family, an outstanding emperor emerged, who was not a descendant of the Aragonese brothers, he claimed to be a descendant of Aragon. In fact, Aragon's descendants have been severed, but in the "era of withered blood", although the royal family of Aragon's family did not have a single male member, they still had several daughters. And this emperor is the descendant of one of the daughters of the Aragon line in the "age of withered blood".

At that time, when he succeeded to the throne, it was also after a fierce struggle. On the one hand, the empire was in crisis, the empire was almost destroyed, and the other royal children were reluctant to sit on that terrible throne, thinking that it was a crater.

Finally, the emperor succeeded to the throne. In fact, he was put on the throne, because according to the family tree, he is not a real descendant of Aragon, but his great-great-great-grandmother. It is the descendants of Aragonland. Before becoming emperor, he was only a royal duke (not even a prince).

But it was this emperor who was a rare outstanding figure, who single-handedly uprooted the Rollin family, revived the empire, and at the same time made the Rollin family start its glory!

This history is more complicated, but the royal blood of any empire has always been large and scattered, and Du Wei made a comparison. It is about as if the experience of the Han Dynasty in Chinese history is very similar to the world he was in in his previous life: although the Western Han and Eastern Han Dynasties are considered to be the Han Dynasty, in fact, after the fall of the Western Han Dynasty established by the Han Emperor Liu Bang, the Zhongxing Empire, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, strictly calculated that the bloodline was far away from the royal family of the Western Han Dynasty, and it was considered a collateral lineage.

History of the Roland Empire. It is very similar to the world of Du Wei's previous life, and the alternation of the Western Han and Eastern Han in Chinese history.

Merely. That emperor of the Roland Zhongxing Empire himself seems to have a "Aragonese plot". He seems to be an avid admirer of Aragon, who always considered himself a descendant of Aragon, and even called his dynasty "The Dynasty of Thorns", although historians do not identify with him as such. And after his death, no one called him the Earth Dynasty, which is now called the "Augustinian Dynasty". Because back then, just before that Zhongxing Emperor succeeded to the throne, his title was "Grand Duke Augustine".

The funny thing is that the Zhongxing emperor regarded himself as an Aragon concubine all his life, but his descendants did not seem to think so, and later formal historical records were recorded under the name "Augustine". For example, the current emperor of the empire is publicly known as: Augustine VI.

These may also explain why a handwritten letter left by Aragorn himself was found in the grave of a fallen royal and aristocratic family. Because the descendants of the real Aragon have already fallen hundreds of years ago.

The royal family after that can only be regarded as the descendants of Aragon's relatives, not his own bloodline.

"To put it simply, from the first year of the founding of the empire to the fourth hundred years of the empire, it was the Aragon line that held imperial power and was called the 'Thorn Flower Dynasty'. Then, for four hundred to six hundred years of the empire, the line of brothers of Aragon held imperial power and was called the 'Glorious Dynasty'. Then, from the six hundred years of the empire to the present, it was the 'Augustinian dynasty', and this dynasty and Aragon were even more distant. Got it?

Du Wei smiled bitterly.

After explaining to the knight, Du Wei immediately turned his head and glanced at the old magician: "Okay, tell us quickly, what is written in the suicide note of Aragon himself that you found in that little nobleman's grave, that is, this parchment roll in your hand?"

"To be precise, this is a prophecy!" The old magician smiled a little grittyly, as if he deliberately lowered his voice: "You know, Aragon was almost invincible on the continent back then, and we all know that he is very strong and strong, but what realm his strength has reached, no one knows." There are even legends that his strength can almost reach the existence of almost a god! Although many people think that this speculation is ridiculous... But I don't think so! I think it's quite possible! His strength has indeed reached the level of an almost god-like existence! So... He probably mastered a legendary that only gods possess an extraordinary ability: the Great Prophecy! "
