Chapter 990 Wings of the Sunstrider
"I have to say, you have divine eyes!" The old man stroked his beard and nodded in admiration, "This pair of 'Sunstrider's Wings' is indeed the most precious treasure here!"
"Wings of the Sunstrider?" Huang Yi repeated the name.
"Yes! The Sunstrider's Wings, also known as 'Icarus' Wings', were made by the last epic hero of our feathered race——Sunstrider Icarus!" said the old man, his old eyes Staring at the pair of wings hanging on the wall, he said quietly: "Before the ancestors of our branch came here to live in seclusion, a total of eight epic heroes were born in the history of the Yuren tribe. The last one is Sun Chaser Ika Ross! His name means "the light of the setting sun" in the ancient language of the Yuren tribe. Period. At that time, our feathered people basically only had some slaves whose wings had been cut off. The offspring of these slaves had serious defects, and their wings were incomplete. After one generation, the feathered people lost the ability to fly. Seeing When my family was about to bid farewell to the sky, Sunstrider Icarus was born!"
When the old man said this, there was a gleam of brilliance in his eyes: "Icarus is a member of our "Zi Sun Clan". After he was born, like all the members of the family at that time, he did not have complete wings and could not fly. But he did not Willing to sink down here, he longs to soar in the vast sky and chase the warm sun like his predecessors. When he was young, he was determined to revitalize the entire Yuren tribe and lead them back to the sky. To this end, he frantically studied various Knowledge, alchemy, forging, engineering, architecture, etc... Then, he started a long research, trying every means to make every feathered human race fly. He tried alchemy and medicine, and wanted to refine He made a permanent flying potion, but failed in the end; he tried means such as runes and magic, which could indeed make people barely fly, but the flying speed and height still failed to meet his expectations. After various attempts .He finally set his sights on engineering, and he wanted to make an artificial wing!"
While talking, the old man walked slowly towards the pair of wings on the wall. Continued: "After careful design, Icarus finally created the first pair of wings. The pair of wings really allowed him to fly, but after only a short distance, the wooden skeleton of the wings couldn't bear it. He fell from mid-air and broke a leg. Icarus had to continue to improve the design. He first improved the structure of the skeleton many times, and changed the materials of the skeleton many times. He made a test flight every time, and almost fell to his death several times. After repeated failures and improvements, he finally produced a brand new alloy, which is super hard and very light at the same time. The wing skeleton that came out met Icarus' needs, and his dream for many years finally came true!"
The old man said with a slight smile: "Icarus quickly made a batch of these wings and distributed them to other feathered people. During that time, the feathered people did fly again. After saying goodbye to the sky for many years, Finally flew up again, the whole family celebrated with joy, regarded Icarus as the hero of the whole family, and wrote it into the epic of our family. Since he is a member of my "Day Clan", everyone affectionately called him He is 'Sunstrider'."
"Why didn't this kind of wing become popular?" Huang Yi asked suspiciously, "It stands to reason that if this kind of artificial wing is really so powerful, it should leave a strong mark in the history of the world, but I don't know Never heard of it."
"Because this kind of wing is still defective!" The old man said without hesitation, "The alloy created by Icarus is too expensive, and the raw material metal is extremely rare. With the resources of the feathered people at that time, there was no way to mass-produce it. In addition , the feathers attached to the wings are easily damaged, and new feathers have to be attached every time they fly, and the time for attaching feathers is longer than the time for flying once.
very troublesome. Over time. The Yuren have lost interest in this artificial wing. It is still not perfect enough to allow the Yuren to truly return to the sky! "
When the old man said this, he shook his head slightly, and expressed his opinion: "Actually, in my opinion, the biggest problem of the feathered race is not that they don't have wings, but that the entire race has declined too badly. Flying, it is no longer an opponent of other races. A mere artificial wing cannot stop the historical trend of the decline of the feathered race. Moreover, this kind of wings will attract the peeping and snatching of other races, causing death. disaster."
The old man sighed and continued: "But Icarus was not willing to end like this. He swore that he would go around the whole world chasing the sun like his ancestor Johns did in his lifetime! In order to solve the problem of the feathers of the artificial wings, he did not hesitate to use It is a kind of town treasure treasured by the Yuren people - more than 8,000 pieces of Johns' feather!"
"Johns' Feather? More than 8,000 pieces?" Huang Yi was shocked!
Johns Feather, this is a famous baby in the second world!
Although Johns became a god back then, the feathers on his body fell off, and there were a total of 100,000 pieces, which floated all over the world! There are very few that can be handed down to the present!
As long as priests can obtain a piece of Johns' Feather and embed it on their equipment, their healing ability can be greatly improved.
A priest player, as long as he can get such a piece of Johns' feather, he can become a master priest.
And Icarus actually got more than 8,000 pieces! This kind of quantity is simply frightening to death!
"Yes! More than 8,000 pieces!" The old man nodded, stretched out his haggard palm, and gently stroked the pair of wings on the wall, his fingers brushed over the dense golden feathers, "Johns left over 100,000 pieces back then. One-tenth of the feathers were collected by our feathered people, that is, about 10,000 pieces. After being handed down to the time of Icarus, there were more than 8,000 pieces left. Icarus took these 8,000 pieces from Johns The feathers were all pasted on his own pair of artificial wings! After putting on these powerful feathers, the pair of artificial wings suddenly shone brightly, far surpassing any pair of artificial wings before. Unrivaled! After Icarus put on these wings, he faintly has the demeanor of Johns reappearing!"
"That's a pair of divine wings!" The old man's tone became excited, "After Icarus had these wings, he was overjoyed, immediately put them on his back, flew into the sky, and began to try to be like his predecessors. They chased the sun like that! It will always be an epic day. Countless races in the world are shocked to find that there is a figure in the sky under the sun! After countless years, another feathered race is chasing the sun Countless people are looking up on the earth, it seems that the whole world is watching Icarus's day-by-day journey. It is the last record of chasing the sun in the history of our Yuren race! However, this also attracted Yu For some enemies of the human race, many masters went to heaven to intercept Icarus."
The old man paused, and continued: "My members of the Chasing Sun Clan chase the sun not because they are idle, but because of a practical physiological need, because our blood is born with the talent to absorb sunlight. In the process of chasing the sun, he can strengthen himself as quickly as possible. In the process of chasing the sun, Johns' strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and the pair of god-like wings on his back have greatly increased his strength. In front of people all over the world, he slashed Killed many masters who came to stop them, and almost dyed the entire sky with blood. Icarus used this massacre to reproduce the glory of the feathered people who dominated the sky in the past!"
"But this is just the last glory!" The old man sighed slightly, "After beheading many masters in a row, Icarus couldn't help becoming proud, flying higher, wanting to absorb sunlight faster and improve his strength. However, the feathers on his pair of wings were sealed together with wax. Because he flew too high, the sealing wax was finally melted by the scorching sun, most of the feathers fell off, and the pair of godlike wings quickly began to grow. Damaged! And those enemies seized the opportunity to lay siege to him. Icarus killed all the enemies who besieged him with difficulty, but he was also mortally injured. The wings were finally completely damaged, unable to keep him flying .In the end he fell on an ocean and was drowned. The great Icarus, like the flashback of the feathered people before dying, brought hope to my family, but fell quickly. Ironically, He was not defeated by the enemy, but precisely by the sun in which he believed!"
The old man shook his head and said with emotion: "Later, the Feather Clan went through untold hardships and finally found the body of Icarus and buried him. But there are only more than 5,000 pieces of the pair of damaged wings left. The feather of Johns that lost its brilliance lost any power, and the other feathers fell off and floated away! Since then, no one in the Yuren tribe can repair the pair of wings. Later, it was taken away by our ancestors , and finally hid in this isolated place."
"Is this the pair of wings from back then?" Huang Yi couldn't help but sighed, and reached out to rub the wings on the wall. Unexpectedly, this pair of wings hidden in the dark cellar once had such an epic epic.
"Yes! This pair of wings has been broken, and the remaining Johns' feathers on it have no power, but as long as you can repair it, it is definitely a pair of godlike wings!" (To be completed continued.)
