Chapter 25 Uneasy(1/2)
"This blade has a long history, far surpassing that of the entire civilization. When I wield it, its power is also the same!
The sword mage held the rune sword tightly, and the surging arcane energy spurted out from her body. Her long red-brown hair was faintly shining, and her straight body was as dazzling as the radiance under the hot sun.
As the criss-crossed arcane runes on the blade shone with bursts of silver light, irregular dark purple electric arcs jumped and engulfed the entire blade.
The sword mage surrounded by electric light condensed his eyes coldly, and suddenly a purple electric light leaped out.
——"Silver Thunder Galloping!"
As she slashed the sword horizontally with a dazzling technique, the arc of the sword suddenly released purple thunder.
A moment!
Arcane runes glowing with purple light shot out from the sword's edge, covering the roaring purple insect's head, pouring down like a waterfall of noise, dazzling lightning that tore through the darkness.
The sword mage held up the rune sword filled with electric arcs, turned into silver lightning with a figure that no one could see clearly, and rushed towards the suffocating huge figure of the purple insect.
"For the Kingdom of Cormyr!"
A flash of lightning ripped through the darkness, followed by a clear and loud voice that echoed in the huge tunnel.
For the Kingdom of Cormyr?
Hearing this passionate slogan, Brian, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped.
All of a sudden, thousands of complicated emotions flooded into his heart.
He found in disbelief that a certain nerve in his heart suddenly spasmed because of this slogan.
It's like a plucked string, emitting a vibrating echo that echoes in my heart for a long time and is difficult to calm down.
So much so that his heart was filled with some inexplicable emotions that were difficult to let go, unwilling, sad, angry, and unable to be vented.
Immediately afterwards, his long-term composure and calmness made him regain his sanity in an instant, and found the root cause of this problem.
Fight for the Kingdom of Cormyr, fight for Cormyr...
Brian muttered to himself and repeated this slogan that he was so familiar with and had shouted so many times in the game.
In this indescribable atmosphere, when the Kingdom of Cormyr was mentioned again, despite this dangerous environment, he couldn't help but feel dazed.
Because he felt that he recalled a memory that was so long ago that he had long forgotten it:
The huge and steep forbidden land "Stormhorn Mountains" is like a high wall blocking the orc army. There are only passages at the High Horn Pass and the Wolfman Pass.
‘Thunder Peak’ is named after the destructive storms that ravage the land all year round. The harsh climate makes large-scale mining activities very difficult, but there are always some lone players who happily come back with fist-sized natural gold ore.
A lost civilization that predates the elves lies dormant in the "Far Sea Swamp", and its only remains are gorgeous buildings made of steel-hard glass.
The most primitive forest in Cormyr, Hurek, not only has unknown hidden valleys, but also ghost-like creatures and monsters continue to appear in legends.
Taking a boat from the calm, clear star-shaped lake "Pterosaur Lake", you can directly reach the Falling Star Sea.
"The Kingdom of Cormyr..." Brian repeated it with emotion, and couldn't help but curse, "This was a fucking memory from so long ago, and it's still so fucking annoying to think about it now.
"
In fact, he rarely curses, but whenever he thinks about the future history of the Kingdom of Cormyr, he gets very angry.
Even after so many years, he still feels an unquenchable regret and regret in his heart, as well as an uneasy feeling suppressed in the deepest part of his heart.
Cormyr is a forest nation established over a millennium.
It is a green and friendly land with large undulations, surrounded by mountains on the sides, and ancient and deep green forests overlooking the customs and customs of the people.
Dragons, stags and unicorns feature prominently in the folklore, ballads and heraldry of the Kingdom of Cormyr:
The dragon represents the ancient and unruly wildness of this place, the stag represents the gift from the earth, and the unicorn symbolizes the tranquility and mystery deep in the forest.
It is famous for its well-trained legions of purple dragon knights and war mages.
It is also proud of its exquisite food, honest and kind people, incomprehensible mysteries, and abundant communication with other parts of the world.
This is a prosperous country defended by complete law and goodness.
Although the number of their player groups is not as large as that of Waterdeep City in the Sword Coast and Silvermoon City in the North, people born in this country can have the most profound experience of safety, justice and warmth.
Because of this.
The Kingdom of Cormyr has become the most sympathetic and emotional country for their player base.
However, any beautiful and desirable place will often cause evil hearts to beat here, and the Kingdom of Cormyr is no exception.
This is also the reason why when he heard that the surface of the earth was the Kingdom of Cormyr, he decided to settle down after a moment of consideration.
In fact, as a player who has been in the Kingdom of Cormyr since the beginning of the game and witnessed the destruction of this forest kingdom with his own eyes.
He can still clearly recall every heart-stringing disaster.
It is these disasters that push the Kingdom of Cormyr step by step into the abyss of shadow.
The Year of Flames and Despair.
In the northernmost rocky wasteland of Cormyr, the town of Mokou, built by the pioneer lords, was attacked by an adult red dragon, which directly led to the town's fall and became controlled by three evil forces: the Sanlin Pagoda Society, the Dragon Cult and the Shadow City.
traffic arteries.
This Mokou town related to the Eno Oak Desert has always been a pain for the kingdom.
Unfortunately, until the kingdom was destroyed, it could not be recaptured.
The Year of the Dance with Dragons.
The Dragon Cult's research on the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock was initially tested successfully, and the entire Kingdom of Cormyr was ravaged by dragons.
Tiffanydon, Mashamber, Morningstar Town and many settlements were burned to the ground, and the capital city of Susal was fiercely attacked by ancient red dragons and black dragons.
The Supreme Mage Sandra Haast was seriously injured in an aerial battle against two ancient dragons. When the battle spread to the ground, the king of Cormyr and the two dragons perished together, leaving only a son less than two years old to inherit Cormyr.
The throne of Mir.
The year of the divided kingdom.
After the death of King Cormyr, his brother Prince Selant formed a mercenary army and launched attacks in many places in Cormyr. The army of goblins and orcs in the Stormhorn Mountains also looted various parts of the kingdom under the leadership of many orc shamans.
.
With the assistance of the Sambian army, Prince Selant captured the capital city of Susar, killed the young king, and became the heir to the throne of Cormyr.
However, the Purple Dragon Knights and the Battle Mage Legion did not recognize the false king sitting on the throne, so naturally they were unwilling to swear allegiance to him, and all retreated to Arabey City.
Under the leadership of the Grand Duchess of the Raul family, they continued to work hard to suppress the rebellion and restore the country.
The Year of the Welt Scar.
In the conspiracy of the night goddess Shar against the magic goddess Mystra, Shar's high-ranking priestess completed a huge ritual, tore a rift in the magic network, and successfully summoned the demon king over the city of Tifanton in the north of Cormyr.
A cross-dimensional shadow crack appears.
Countless creatures from the shadow plane poured into the material world and completely destroyed the city.
The vast majority of the residents were killed in this premeditated disaster. The priestesses of Shar resurrected the corpses into an undead army, and combined with the army of the false king, launched a fierce attack on Arabel City.
With the assistance of many player forces, Arabey's coalition successfully crushed the undead army and the puppet king's rebels.
The Shadow Rift was also sealed through the efforts of the Harpers, ending this disaster.
Weeping for the year of the storm.
With the silence of the Spider Queen Lolth, the Underdark became a place where abyssal demons were raging. Countless demons emerged from the surface, and the Kingdom of Cormyr above the ancient city of Orens was the first among them.
Although the players managed to quell this turmoil with unremitting efforts, the kingdom's vitality has been severely damaged after years of war. Countless civilians have been killed and injured. The land within the territory has also been polluted by demons, turning it into many places of corruption and pollution.
The Year of the Long Shadow.
The ghosts of the Eno Oak Desert took this opportunity to gather an army, and marched towards the Arabe City using the second floating city of Sacros salvaged from the Sea of Fallen Stars.
In the ensuing battle, the lord of Arabel City, with the assistance of the Harpers and the Chosen of the Magic Goddess, released a powerful magic weapon to fight against the ghost army.
However, the interaction between this weapon and the Shadow Web eventually evolved into a battle between the Shadow Web and the Demon Web to eliminate each other.
The Wraiths, descendants of Netheril, and their floating city of Sacros descended over the city of Arabel with absolute superiority.
The floating city is riding on the face and asked you if you are afraid.
There is no doubt that this seems to be a battle without any suspense.
However, the Harper spies completed the counter-attack. Before the battle even started, these scouts sneaked into the floating city in advance and successfully destroyed the energy core "Myser Energy Core".
As a result, events reversed again.
The Harper spy's misjudgment caused the floating city to lose power and crash directly into the city of Arabe, resulting in the catastrophic destruction of both.
At the same time, on the other side, the Shadow Demonic Network and the Demonic Network are fighting for each other.
Neither Shar, the goddess of the night, nor Mystra, the goddess of magic, got any benefits. They also triggered an astonishing energy, completely turning the entire Kingdom of Cormyr into a dark sunken space and a dead magic zone, filled with
Shadows and floating dark areas.
…………
At this point, Cormyr, a forest kingdom that had lasted for thousands of years, was completely removed from the mainland.
As a witness to the kingdom's demise, Brian had not experienced the 'Red Dragon Rebellion' that had occurred ten years ago before the player group came.
