Chapter 122: The Sacred "Friendship" Ritual (Fourth Update)
"Egwin, do you know? In my hometown, if male and female friends are willing to sacrifice their lives for each other, the friendship is unbreakable, and they will hold a sacred ceremony to prove their love...friendship."
"This kind of ritual will only occur between friends of the opposite sex who firmly believe in each other's loyalty and will never leave."
"I want to hold this sacred ceremony with you, are you willing?"
Tang En looked at Egwen very sincerely. After thinking about it, she realized that she had never heard of this custom before, and she couldn't help being curious: "Your hometown? Isn't it the Irrus Empire?"
"No, no, my hometown is in a very far away place, and everything there is different from here."
Aegwynn nodded: "I see, but isn't that ceremony very sacred? It is also possible in this kind of place?"
Aegwynn pointed around. After Albern's soul dissipated, the place had completely turned into a lifeless tomb. The corpse on the throne turned into dust, and the candlelight dimmed even more.
To be honest, this is not a good place to hold a ceremony.
But who made Dunn not care about these? He nodded without hesitation: "It doesn't matter, the gods of our nation don't care about these things, as long as you are sincere, you can do it no matter where you are."
Aegwynn nodded: "What should I do?"
Tang En gently took her hand: "You just need to follow my command."
"I want me too!"
Nora happily flew onto Aegwynn's shoulder, and said solemnly: "Nora is also Tang En's good friend, and Nora has also made great contributions!"
"It's up to you..."
Tang En didn't know whether to laugh or cry, nodded her little head, then turned to Egwen and said: "This ceremony is actually very simple, the most important thing is to be sincere, and this sacred ceremony will be recognized by the gods our nation believes in." Blessings and shelter."
Egwen looked at Tang En nervously: "Need me to change my belief?"
"No, no, no! The gods of our nation's beliefs are very tolerant, and he doesn't mind these things—and there are many gods we believe in, such as the god of wealth, Guizu. Li and Gongming. Zhao, the god of life and death, Dongyue The Great Emperor, the God of Love, Yue Lao, etc., and these gods are friends with each other, and most of the believers overlap with each other."
Tang En solemnly popularized the basic knowledge of the heavenly gods to the simple elf sword master.
"Emperor Dongyue, the god of life and death?"
Aegwynn couldn't turn his head around: "The god of life is the goddess Anita Lier, isn't the god of death Gritherance? Who is this Dongyue emperor? It sounds like an emperor."
"You don't need to understand these, these are the gods I believe in in my hometown."
Tang En coughed lightly, ran to fetch a few candles and placed them in front of him, motioning for Egwin to kneel facing the east like himself, and Nora also knelt there on Egwin's shoulder in a similar manner.
Then……
Tang En sang emotionally: "(Chinese) Dad, Mom, my son is not filial, and I accidentally traveled through time. Although I can't do my filial piety for you, my son worked hard to find you a beautiful elf daughter-in-law. Although she It's kind of silly, but it's just so cute!"
"It's a bit difficult for her to understand what love is now, and I don't know when my son will be able to bridal chamber, but for now, let's trick her into paying homage first."
"After all, my son is not good enough for her now, so let's make up for the bridal chamber when I have a chance later."
Seeing Tang En "singing" a spell she had never heard of very seriously, Egwen couldn't help becoming very serious, imitating Tang En's appearance and kneeling there upright.
"Cigarettes are ethereal, candles are brilliant, and the bride and groom are in the flower hall together, worshiping heaven and earth!"
After Tang En finished speaking, he signaled Egwen with his eyes to learn how to kowtow forward.
Aegwynn readily accepted, anyway, the east happened to be the Emerald Forest, and the World Tree was there, so there was no psychological burden to kowtow there.
Nora also kowtowed in the same way, but seeing how happy she was, it was purely for fun.
"Second obeisance to the high hall!"
Because they were in a different world, of course they couldn't kowtow to their parents, so they kowtowed to the east again, let's say they kowtowed to the world tree.
"Husband and wife salute!"
After Tang En finished speaking, he signaled Egwen to turn around. The two faced each other (and Nora on her shoulder), and kowtowed to each other—well, Tang En can be regarded as a pair of two. Wen and Nora paid homage.
Only then did Tang En happily explain: "Just now, it was a ceremony to worship the gods of heaven and earth and let them witness our ceremony. Now it's a promise between each other, to never leave, to rely on and support each other, forever."
Aegwynn blinked: "Is this the end?"
"Actually, there is still one more step." Tang En smiled awkwardly, "But we need to wait until we meet certain conditions before we can implement it. Let's just leave it at that for now."
"By the way, this ceremony is called 'worshiping heaven and earth'. After worshiping heaven and earth, you can call me 'husband' and I can call you 'wife'."
"husband?"
Aegwynn had some doubts on his face: "It's a strange name, I'm not used to it, I'll call you Dunn."
"also."
Tang En felt a little regretful. He thought he could trick her into calling him her husband. He was so happy to hear a beautiful elf calling him her husband sweetly...
After worshiping heaven and earth, Aegwynn became curious again.
"Speaking of which, what power does this elemental ruler have?"
Aegwynn was curious again. After all, she was also a strong person. Of course, she was curious about the strongest human being in the legend.
Aegwynn had a short battle with Albern just now. During the battle, Albern only used the spell-like elemental sword and did not show too much power, so Aigwynn didn't quite understand the meaning of this inheritance.
Of course, Alborn's soul has been blocked by him for nearly a thousand years, and his strength has long since disappeared, and one of the reasons is that he cannot display too powerful abilities.
"He perfectly combines swordsmanship and magic. Not only can he use various elemental swordsmanship to fight, but he can also summon an army of elements to help fight."
Tang En checked the memory inheritance in his mind.
"When the strength reaches a certain level, you can even summon the projection battle of the elemental monarch, and you can also elementalize yourself to obtain extraordinary power."
The elemental lords are the strongest among the four elemental worlds. They command all the elemental lords and elemental creatures. They existed before the appearance of Prandal, and the power of each elemental lord is incredible.
In terms of pure destructive power, they are even more powerful than the gods of Prandal.
Aegwynn nodded: "It is indeed very powerful."
Then she said very seriously: "But Tang En, as your friend, I must remind you that after gaining great power, you must know how to use it. Power should be fought to protect order, not to Satisfy one's selfish desires."
"Especially you, you are a human being, the human mind is too complicated, and it is easy to be blinded by the ****, Tang En, if one day I find out that you are abusing your power and disrupting the order of Prandal, I will end your life with my own hands .”
Aegwyn's expression was very serious, Tang En knew she was not joking, so he pressed Aegwyn's shoulder and said solemnly: "I assure you, no, I assure Goddess Nissclair, my dear wife—"
"Wife?"
Aigewen's ears trembled, feeling uncomfortable: "I don't know why, but I always feel awkward when I hear this name. You should call me Aigewen."
"Okay, Aegwynn." Tang En was helpless, it was so difficult to get some cheap words, "If I abuse my power to do evil for my own selfish desires, I am willing to accept your sanctions."
"The goddess will watch our every word and deed, I hope you can do what you say."
Aegwen touched Dun En's cheek: "And I don't want to see my friend become a member of Chaos."
Dunn subconsciously grabbed Aegwen's hand: "I won't."
Being watched by Tang En, Egwen smiled foolishly, not aware of the ambiguity at all - after all, she is a pure elf...
Because of the natural coordination of the elves, they will become more and more like humans when they are with humans, but the time Dunn and Aegwynn have been together is still too short, and he has not been able to influence Aegwynn.
"It's so boring, so boring... how do we get out?"
At this time, Nora came to spoil the atmosphere again, flying between the two of them to show her presence, Tang En was so angry that he almost wanted to throw her out.
"I saw the teleportation magic circle at the seat just now. If there is no accident, I should have left here. I don't think Albern planned to go out here by himself when he was planning his resurrection."
Aegwynn was stunned for a while before realizing it, pursing his lips and chuckling.
That reserved and gentle smile was like a ray of breeze blowing through Tang En's heart, and it was like drinking a sip of cold mountain spring water in hot summer. It was so clear and sweet that it made him drunk.
Nora had already rushed to the seat first, and then bluffed and yelled at them.
"Let's go?"
Egwen tilted his head and asked Tang En.
Tang En picked up Eliya and took Egwen's hand to the high platform. At this moment, Tang En suddenly noticed a strange thing protruding from behind Albern's skeleton, and out of curiosity, he pulled it out.
It was a gorgeous and simple-looking cane, with complex magic lines engraved on it, but it didn't have any magic power.
After identification, the name of the item appeared in front of Tang En's eyes: Illus' royal cane (damaged), artifact-level cane, unusable.
Tang En's heart skipped a beat, it turned out to be divine equipment! ?
Although it looked like a useless thing, Tang En put it away without hesitation. The intuition from a veteran player told him that although the display was damaged, as long as this prompt appeared, it proved that there must be a way to repair it!
Egwen saw Tang En's discovery, but didn't say anything.
Tang En activated the magic circle, and in a blink of an eye, they had already returned to the basement of Enoch the Boneburyer.
Before going down, Tang En never thought that so many thrilling things would happen, the test of the four-element mechanism trap, and even the assassination in Alborn's inheritance.
Without Nora and Aegwynn, he and Elijah would definitely die below,
Without kidnapping Nora, he couldn't have met Aegwynn.
He would never have come to the Pale Forest, much less entered Enoch the Boneburyer's cellar, without the cheek to stay by Aegwynn's side.
Without the strength of an alchemist, he would not be able to refine the miracle of life and save Aegwynn.
Without Nora, Aegwynn would have lost his weapon, unable to get past those elemental tests underground to meet Albern.
Without the help of Nora and Aegwynn, he himself could not have defeated Albern...
And the most important thing is, without Yilia's gift, Tang En would not have obtained this inheritance...
So, this is a miracle, a miracle of a series of coincidences and inevitable combinations.
Rao an unbeliever like Tang En couldn't help but sigh with emotion, Prandal, I'm afraid there really is a God who is arranging everything step by step.
