Vol 2 Chapter 757: The Civilization of Fire and the Bone of God



The elf queen Sharan stood confidently on the canopy, overlooking the ferocious salamander crawling and roaring in the raging fire. She calmly recited the incantation, and blessed the originally mediocre flying arrows of the elf tribe with the magic power bestowed by the gods.

This time the attack of the elves did not disappoint her. The green arrows successfully pierced the skin of the salamanders. Their tough skin was torn apart by these sharp arrows in an instant, and the power of magic pierced their hearts. .

These behemoths that have been rampant on the Blue Star for hundreds of years finally met their opponents today, the protectors of nature who specially stopped them. Under the protection of the elves, the ecological environment of Blue Star was finally saved.

Facing the gradually burning forest fire, the Elf Queen Sharan turned to look at the group. She waved to the three elders in the elf tribe, and the three elders immediately followed Sharan.

The four stood in a cross, their hands raised on their chests, and they closed their eyes and chanted in a low voice, chanting the same mantra together.

"Gaza Sito, Morro Aldo..."

With the chanting of the incantation, the raging fire that was biting the trees suddenly weakened, and they slowly lowered their heads as if they were children who had done something wrong.

Elves have the mysterious power to control the elements of nature, and the power of fire is within their control, so for them, nothing is easier than stopping a forest fire.

Before Sharan and the three elders finished chanting the incantation, the raging fire lit by the salamanders had been completely extinguished, and only the black smoke flew through the dense forest into the sky, and then gradually dissipated...

————

Contrary to the gradually prosperous children of the forest, the current situation of the children of the earth is inevitably embarrassing.

Because of their own arrogance and arrogance, the children of the earth have become the prey of the most powerful species of salamanders on the road, and under the pursuit of the salamanders, the number of children of the earth has begun to plummet.

The village they had worked so hard to build was easily destroyed by salamanders, and the wooden houses could not withstand the attack of salamanders. Since most of the children of the earth lived in groups, once the village was invaded by salamanders, the villagers hardly survived. of hope.

Under the ravages of salamanders, the number of the children of the earth has dropped sharply. They can only hide in the depths of the jungle or live along the river. Unlike the stupid "heroic" of their ancestors, today's children of the earth see the salamanders. The first thing that finally came to mind was not to rush to kill it to prove his bravery, but to run away and get a small life.

Another hundred years have passed, and the remaining children of the earth have established a new community.

One of the larger communities is located on the south side of a certain mountain ridge. Below the mountain ridge on the south side is a large river, which can not only provide enough water for the son of the earth, but also prevent the attack of salamanders. After all, even if the salamanders invade, The river also stops the fire from spreading.

The son of the earth, who was recuperating, thought about the pain and began to reflect on the reason why his own race could not defeat the salamanders.

Is the size of the salamander too large?

Are salamanders too cunning?

neither.

The previous sons of earth have defeated more ferocious and cunning beasts. After all, the sons of earth are very confident in their IQ, they can communicate in words, they can use stone and bone tools, and they can even formulate a very mature strategic plan , but not salamanders.

And the Son of Earth, a monster larger than the salamander, has also seen it before, and they have never been chased by these monsters to the point of near death.

So what is the reason for the power of salamanders?

The answer is obvious - fire.

The fire of the salamander is the nemesis of the children of the earth, and a scalding flame can burn down a huge number of buildings.

The children of the earth discovered that once the flames were ignited, they could form a prairie prairie in an instant, and it was not at all that manpower could resist.

Therefore, the reason why the salamander has terrifying lethality, and the reason why it can almost chase the son of the earth to extinction, is the flame.

After thinking about this, Son of Earth decided to study flames!

They finally realized that flame is the most powerful weapon between heaven and earth, more powerful than any sharp stone spear or stone sword.

A small flame can destroy an entire village, but no matter how sharp a sword is, it can only kill one person.

The wise tribal leader issues an order—any son of earth who can wield the power of fire will be worshipped as the **** of fire by all, and his offspring will inherit the name of the **** of fire and be revered among the tribe for generations.

Under the call of the leader, the sons of the earth came out in full force, looking for a way to control the flame.

Some of them risked their lives to infiltrate the salamander habitat in an attempt to spy on the secrets of the salamanders' arson. They did not dare and were unable to directly hunt the living salamanders, so they went to look for the dead salamanders' corpses. They studied the rotting salamanders' corpses in an attempt to obtain mysteries from them, but they always found nothing...

Another part of the sons of the earth is less timid. They did not explore the habitat of salamanders. They are better at observing life and know that the source of flames is not only salamanders.

They noticed that every time a heavy rain came, a ray of light would drop from the dark clouds in the sky, and the light would converge with the tops of some trees, and the tops of the trees would ignite a raging fire.

"The secret of the flame, at the top of the trees, on the tops of those towering trees, there must be something that can ignite a flame!"

One of the sons of the earth asserted,

"Maybe it's the fruit of the flame, maybe it's the flame itself, it must be like this, every time the flame burns from the tips of these trees!"

However, when the other sons of the earth risked their lives to climb the tops of the tallest trees in the forest and chop down most of the tops, they found that these tops could not bring them a source of fire.

Whether they peeled back the treetops, or held them up to the stars in the sky, the treetops just couldn't burn like a thunderstorm before they were lit by the dark clouds.

The children of the earth who have been frustrated repeatedly are not willing to fail like this. One of the persistent children of the earth climbed a nearby hill with a treetop on a thunderstorm night. He raised the treetop with both hands and shouted at the dark clouds in the sky. Said: "Give me the flame! Give me the flame!"

His sincerity finally moved the dark clouds, and that dazzling light actually really fell from the sky.

Boom!

But to his disappointment, the dazzling light did not bring him flames, and nothing happened after the light shone - except that the body of the son of the earth turned black, fell straight to the ground, and stopped breathing...

The children of the earth have been chasing the flame for decades, during which no one has been able to penetrate the mystery of the flame. In the process of chasing the flame, more and more children of the earth paid the price with their lives.

Either they were killed by salamanders, or they fell from climbing trees and fell to their death. Some lucky people managed to cut down the treetops, and they were inevitably struck to death by lightning in the end...

But the children of the earth were not discouraged. They firmly believed that the flame was the key to their evolution. Only by mastering the flame could they have stronger strength, be able to defeat the salamander, and become the master of the road again.

Until one day, a son of the earth named Quat solved the mystery of the flame on a crisp autumn day.

On this day, the bored Quat wandered along a small road outside the village.

This barren mountain is very strange. There are black stones everywhere. There are no tall trees here. Only the most tenacious weeds can grow here.

The bored and bored Quarter had nothing to do, so he picked up the black stones on the ground and threw them around, making a middle-of-the-road sound at the same time.

"Whoosh!"

"piu!"

"Death! Salamanders!"

And among the seventy or eighty times he threw stones, there was one time when the black stone rubbed against other stones, shooting out indistinct sparks, and this time the sparks happened to fall on a withered hay by chance. Above, a dazzling flame was ignited.

At first, Quat couldn't believe his eyes at all. He felt that the weeds in front of him couldn't catch fire at all, but when a strong smell of smoke came, Quat finally believed it.

"I lit the flame! I lit the flame!"

"I created flames!"

"I am Vulcan! I am Vulcan!"

Excited Quart jumped and shouted happily around the burning withered grass. He seemed to see his own statue erected in the village, and he seemed to see his descendants being enshrined by the son of the earth.

But after the excitement, Quat didn't lose his mind, he also knew that he had to think carefully - how the flame was burning.

This is not difficult for him, because in the process of throwing stones again and again, Quat has discovered that the friction of two stones will send out tiny sparks, and it is this spark that splashes into the grass and brings the fire. .

He wisely pulled up a piece of withered grass, and then picked up two stones. He kept colliding and rubbing the two stones until the sparks shot by the two stones splashed into the withered grass, and then ignited with a "huo". withered grass.

"really…"

Quat said excitedly,

"I really mastered the way to light the flame, I am... I am the God of Vulcan!"

————

Excited, Quat returned to the village and told everyone the secret of the flame. The leader of the son of the earth also kept his promise and named the flame-bringer the **** of fire.

Under the teachings of Quat, the Earthchildren soon learned to use fire, which was a great change for the Earthchildren, and this change was enough to change their destiny.

With fire, the children of the earth first have enough self-protection ability. For beasts on the mainland, flames are often the incarnation of salamanders, and the deterrence of salamanders is also applicable to beasts. Seeing the flames, these beasts automatically think of salamanders, and they don't dare to offend the village of the Son of Earth easily, which invisibly provides the Son of Earth with a guarantee of safety.

In addition, the fire also brought cooked food to the children of the earth. They found that the food cooked by the fire was more delicious and reduced the growth of bacteria, which also increased the survival rate of the children of the earth.

After solving the problem of food and clothing, the children of the earth began to stride forward under the protection of flames. They used the flames to burn pottery. During the hundreds of years when the flames were used skillfully, the children of the earth quickly climbed the technology tree and their racial strength. substantial upward growth.

What's amazing is that during the period when Son of Earth was concentrating on development, the number of salamanders began to gradually decrease, which reduced the number of natural enemies that caused the greatest threat to Son of Earth, and gave Son of Earth a great opportunity to develop.

Of course, this is all due to the elves. It was the elves who fought back to protect the nature that caused the reduction of the salamanders, the natural enemies of the children of the earth.

It's just that the people of the earth don't know this, and they attribute it all to their luck.

Time moved forward again, and the number of children of the earth gradually returned to the same level as before, or even more.

Today's Son of the Earth regains self-confidence, and no longer hides and hides like he used to.

They expanded their villages, not only along the great river basins, but also along the plains, grasslands, and mountains.

As long as there is no salamander habitat nearby, they dare to camp here.

Located 500 kilometers west of the east coast of the northern sea area of ​​the Blue Star, there is a village of Sons of the Earth. Their village is called Kongka Maka, which means "the village where the mountain wind blows".

Zalun is a pottery master in Konkamaka. His job is to make pottery. Speaking of which, pottery making is also a skill that the son of the earth discovered by chance. The change.

But Zalun didn't plan to make ceramics that day, although he still had a backlog of orders from nearby villages. He dug up a lot of red stones from the back mountain a few days ago. These stones are The target he was dealing with today.

He carefully smashed these red stones into pieces, and then cleaned out the unnecessary debris. The whole process was manual, so it was very time-consuming.

His two apprentices and his three sons stood by him and performed the tasks he assigned, but these children did not understand Zaren's intentions, and they felt that the red stone was of little value.

"Dad, what the **** is this? What are we doing?"

Zaren's eldest son, Bor, asked with his head tilted, his eyes full of doubts.

"This is a very important thing." Zaren replied perfunctorily.

"Is it more important than our order and reputation?" said the eldest apprentice Vavajal. "Master, our order has been delayed for three days, and customers will be angry if it is delayed any longer."

"Let them wait! What we have to do now is more important than making them cookware!" Zaren was obviously impatient.

Seeing that Zarren was angry, the children all quieted down. They all knew that Zarren was a very irritable guy, and his character was like a flaming furnace.

Annoying Zaren, the result is no different than hitting a hungry salamander.

Fortunately, Zarron did not continue to get angry, but worked hard. Under his leadership, everyone quickly completed the conditions for the broken red stone.

Next, Zaren lit the stove and urged Bol to bring more firewood.

"Go, bring me a lot of firewood, hurry!" Zaren urged.

"Understood! Dad!"

Bol hurried to do so, he dared not disobey his father's orders.

After the firewood was in place, Zarren started lighting the stove. This time he was very serious, even more serious than he was firing ceramics before.

"When the fire ignites, stay away from me. The last time there was an explosion here, I almost got an arm..."

Zarren turned around and said to the children, with a hint of imperceptible fear flashing in his eyes. The children obeyed and hurriedly stood back.

Soon the flames began to burn, and the temperature in the room continued to rise. Zaren threw the red stone into a special stove and cooked it with more power.

"Is the fire too big, Dad?" Bol asked nervously, he had never seen Zaren burn the fire to such a scorching temperature.

However, Zaren shook his head and said, "It's not enough! It's far from enough!"

He turned around and walked to the side, picked up a ceramic jar, which contained some black liquid, and Zaren suddenly poured the black liquid in the jar towards the flame.

call!

The fire rose into the sky, and the temperature in the room once again rose to an unprecedented level. The children had never seen such a violent fire, and they were frightened and fled in all directions.

However, Zaren looked at the red stone in the flames excitedly. The strange stone was now redder than before, and at the same time, it seemed to have melted and began to become softer and softer.

"Great! You hard bone! I finally softened you! You **** hard bone!"

Zaren nervously took out the strange stone that had softened and glowed with fiery heat, and threw it on the slate, and then smashed it down on the red-hot stone with a hammer.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The children who ran out of the house were attracted by the harsh sound, and ran towards the house one after another.

"What happened? Dad? Sounds dangerous..."

"Master, what happened?"

"Run, master! I feel the danger is coming soon!"

"What the **** is this red-hot stone? It always feels like it's not a good thing..."

Facing the children's questioning, Zaren showed an indescribable smile on his face.

"You will soon know that this red stone is a gift from God, it is not an ordinary stone, it is the bone of a god! I call it - the bone of a god!"

————

After a day and a night of forging, Zaren used that eerie red stone—what he called the Bone of God—to forge a sharp sword, which was the same as the previous Son of Earth made of stone, bone, and stone. The swords made of wood are different, and this kind of sword can emit a strong light on its own.

Zalun's sons and apprentices were very curious, and they came over to observe the sword, but Zalun did not hand it over to them, but held it in his hands very cherishly.

"This is something that can change the history of the children of the earth, not something that you idiots can hold."

Zaren said with a sneer, then walked towards the house.

Soon he took out an item from the room, a leather armor made of salamander fur.

This leather armor is only made by the son of the earth from the dead body of the salamander. Now the son of the earth still does not have the ability to hunt salamanders. The reason is not only that the salamander can shoot hot flames, but also because the son of the earth The weapon cannot pierce the salamander's skin.

No, wearing a leather armor made of salamander skin, the son of the earth can be invulnerable to swords and guns, and is not afraid of the attack of fire, so this leather armor is quite valuable, and it is the most expensive treasure in the village.

But now Zarren hangs this precious leather armor on a tree, as if he wants to display it.

The eldest son, Bo Er, looked at the leather armor curiously, tilted his head and asked, "Dad, what do you want..."

Before the question was asked, Zaren had already waved the sharp sword in his hand.

Zheng!

A sharp voice sounded, and the salamander's leather armor was cut into two sections by Zaren's sword!

"What?!" The eldest son Bo Er was stunned, and the words he hadn't asked for a while were stuck in his throat. The other sons and apprentices were speechless on the spot, unable to say anything.

Zarren, who witnessed the sharp sword, couldn't help laughing up to the sky. At this moment, he was even more happy than finding a box of gold and silver treasures.

"I made it! I made it!"

Zaren shouted loudly,

"The Bone of God is really extraordinary, and the Bone of God is really powerful!"

Bo Er forcibly calmed down, shook his head, walked to his father, and asked in a low voice, "Father, what do you mean? As we can see, the bone of God is indeed extremely sharp, so what are we going to do next? Are we going to... mass produce this weapon?"

"Of course not, silly boy." Zaren patted Bol on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Then you guys go and spend all your family's money to buy salamander leather armor and six pieces of good fire. Lizard leather armor... Then I'll go and build five more of these weapons, weapons forged from the bones of the gods, and we'll arm ourselves, fully armed."

"Buy salamander leather armor? But what are we doing with that stuff, Dad..." Bol scratched the back of his head and asked, "Our family are pottery masters, and we're not hunters, so we buy these precious leather armors to make What's the use? Besides, the family has no savings~www.NovelMTL.com~ If the rest of the money can buy six leather armors, we will be poor!"

"You stupid boy, do you think we will become paupers if we have the bones of God?"

Zarren just held his forehead, how on earth did he give birth to such a stupid son.

At this time, Yingdu, the second son of Zaren, came over and asked, "Father, we have the sharpest weapons now, so you have to ask the eldest brother to buy the strongest armor, right?"

"Yingdu is still smart." Zaren nodded. "That's right, that's it. With God's Bone and salamander leather armor, we will become an invincible army!"

"Then what's next?" Yingdu asked worriedly, "Father, what do we do next? You want us to be fully armed, then what?"

Hearing this question, a sneer flashed across Zaren's face.

He waved the sword in his hand and said in a deep voice, "I will take you to the habitat of salamanders and slaughter these evil creatures. I will let the whole land know that our sons of the earth are brave after all. It is invincible!!"
